The Feoffees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2025. The financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting poliaes sel out in note 1 to the accounts
and comply with the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of
Recommended Practice applicable lo charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial
Reporting Standard applicab￿ in the UK and Republic of Ireland published in October 2019.
H18tory, Objoctives and Activities for the public benefit
All decisions of th￿ Charity are taken by the Vestrymen of the Church bein9 the Vicar for the lime being and
all present and past Church Wardens of the Church. Of this number the Vicar and present Church Wardens
ex offi¢io and certain other Vestrymen specifically appointed by Trust Deed as such are the acting Feoffees
(Trustees) in whom the Charity property is vested.
The Vestrymen by resolution decide from time lo lime who shoutd be appointed additional Feoffees from their
number and current Feoffees confirm the appointrnenl by Deed. The propety is then vested in all the
Feoffees.
The Feoffees h8ve no evid&nce as lo when and how the Charity came Into existence but it is believed lo have
been created shortly after the Oissolution of the Monasteries in 1 $39 when Holy Trinity Church (which had
been attached to the "dissolved" adiacenl Benedictinè Cathedral Abbey of Sl. Mary's) obtained independence.
There is likewise no evidence of the existence of any original Trust Deed and there may well have been none.
However, the Charity is believed to have existed in it5 basic present form since that early date.
The Deeds of Appointment and the Annu81 Accounts confirm that the Charity has pursued ils proper objects
whtch il continues lo apply. Those objects are to maintain the upkeep of the Church building of Holy Trinity
Coventry and associated properties forming the endowment of th& Trust and for defraying payments for the
services in the church.
The Feoffees confirm that they have referred lo the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general
guidance on public benefit when reV￿wing the Charity's aims and objectives and in planning future aclivilies.
Management and Governance Arfangom•nt8
The Feoffees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Charity faces and
confirm th81 systems have been established lo enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary
steps can be taken lo lessen these risks.
