THE CANYNGES SOCIETY

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The Canynges Society was formed in 1848, originally to raise funds for the restoration of the Parish Church of St Mary Redcliffe. It is a registered charity, number 242231, and is an unincorporated members' association governed by its rules. The rules were amended by resolutions of the Society's members at the 2008, 2009 and 2015 AGMs. At the 2008 AGM it was resolved to remove "(Friends of St Mary Redcliffe)" from the Society's formal legal name which is now simply "The Canynges Society".

Organisational structure

The management of the Society is vested in a Standing Committee whose members are the charity trustees (listed on page 1).

In accordance with the rules of the Society, its Officers (the Standing Committee) are the President, the immediate Past President and not more than seven other individuals who have been elected at the AGM of the Society. The President is proposed by the Standing Committee and elected at the Annual General Meeting to serve from the conclusion of that meeting until the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting. The Officers other than the President are elected at the Annual General Meeting in each year.

In addition, there is a membership, consisting of those who contribute a required minimum level to the funds of the Society. Membership is open to all and the minimum donation level required is set at a modest level to facilitate access to membership. Other donors make gifts to the Society on a regular or an occasional basis.

The Standing Committee consists of the Officers of the Society. The members take office from the end of the Annual General Meeting to which their nominations were indicated. The President shall serve for his/her one year term of office and the Immediate Past President shall serve for one year in the year following his/her presidential year. All other members of the Standing Committee shall serve a one year term of office from the AGM at which they were elected to the next AGM. An individual who is eligible and willing may be reelected to not more than two further terms of office as a member of the Standing Committee. At the end of the third term the relevant individual must step down and may not be elected again to the Standing Committee for at least three years.

The Standing Committee meets as required (not less than twice a year).

Trustees are overwhelmingly selected from the business and professional community and are already familiar with both committee work and with charitable fund-raising. On appointment they are provided with details of the charitable purposes, constitution, structure and procedures of the Society.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Related organisations

The Society works closely with the following related organisations:

St Mary Redcliffe Parochial Church Council (PCC) (registered charity in England and Wales number 1134120). The PCC is the governing body of this Church of England parish church, and its members are charity trustees.

The PCC's composition, plus its principal role and responsibilities, are set by church law (the Church Representation Rules 2001 and the Parochial Church Councils' (Powers) Measure 1956 and its Appendix 1). The PCC is responsible, with the priest appointed to have charge of the parish, for the church's work in the parish and in the wider world and its participation in the overall life of the church.

St Mary Redcliffe Church Lands Charity (registered charity in England and Wales number 211109) - the charity's objects are to maintain the fabric of St Mary Redcliffe Church, maintain facilities for the conduct of Divine worship in the church and support other charitable purposes in the parish.

Risk management

The Standing Committee confirms that the major risks, to which the Society is exposed, as identified by it, have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate these risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of effective internal control procedures, which ensure both appropriate authorisation of all transactions and projects and consistent quality of delivery of all operational aspect of the Society. These procedures are periodically reviewed for their continuing effectiveness.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Charitable purposes

The Society's charitable purposes, for the benefit of the general public, are:

To raise funds with which to give support to the Parish Church of St Mary Redcliffe, Bristol, to make grants from time to time towards the restoration, upkeep and improvements and adornment of the fabric of the church and of the churchyard and of extensions thereto, and to accumulate part thereof in order to make additional grants from time to time towards:

Activities

As in previous years, the income of the Society is derived partly from a personal appeal launched by the President of the year, and partly from income from the Society's deposits and investments. It is the policy of the Society to make grants that do not exceed the value of its general fund in normal circumstances, and of

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

its designated fund in the case of specific major restoration projects.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Despite the continuing difficult times due to COVID-19 restrictions, and thanks to the dedicated efforts of previous Presidents and the very kind donations of our membership, we have been able to continue supporting the good works of St. Mary Redcliffe by helping maintain the fabric of the church.

Due to the restrictions the AGM was delayed until September to enable it to be held in person in the Church. The Presidents and Standing Committees have continued to meet regularly via digital conferencing.

In 2018 the President raised money to help towards improving the visitor experience of the church and we were able to make a further grant to the PCC of £1,473 to enhance the live streaming equipment installed in the previous year to continue to enable the Church to broadcast services to its wider congregation.

The President's Appeal for 2020-21 had its primary focus on raising funding towards creating a new website with exciting content for the charity and the restoration of the chandelier in the Lady Chapel which were both completed in 2021.The 2021-22 President’s appeal was to support on-going fabric works, which had become more urgent due to delays caused by Covid-19 restrictions, and to help with funding to support the church’s Zero Carbon drive.

Following best practice, during the year the Society carried out a review of its investment management arrangements and invited the current management team and three other providers to answer a detailed questionnaire and be interviewed by 3 Trustees. It was agreed to move to Brewin Dolphin Ltd and this transfer arrangement straddled the year end.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Results for the year

The charity raised income of £33,310 and incurred expenditure of £26,282 with an overall gain on investments of £108,630 giving a result for the year of a surplus of £115,658. This was made up of a surplus on the unrestricted fund of £117,131 and a deficit on the restricted fund of £1,473.

Reserves policy

The policy of the Standing Committee is to maintain a reserve whereby the unrestricted funds not designated, committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ("the free reserves") held by the charity should be one year's total expenditure, excluding grants, which amounts to £18,617. At this level the Standing Committee feel that it would be able to continue the current level of activities of the charity in the event of a significant reduction in funding. In such circumstances it would clearly be necessary to consider how the funding would be replaced or activities changed accordingly. The free reserves held by the charity amounted to £81,604 at the balance sheet date. This is currently above the target level because funds earmarked for Project 450 have been put on hold due to Covid-19 delays but are likely to be required in the next year.

Principal funding sources

The Society's principal sources of funding are: individual, trust and corporate donations towards the annual appeal; legacies and other donations bequeathed and given for the work of the Society towards its objects; and income and capital growth from the Society's investments and deposits.

Investment policy and objectives

The members of the Standing Committee intend the real value of the Society's assets to be maintained and

4

THE CANYNGES SOCIETY

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

enhanced over the long term by investment in a portfolio of equities, fixed income stocks and cash deposits. Consistent with this objective, the Trustees wish to obtain a dividend and interest income from the portfolio each year to contribute towards the purposes of the Society. The Society has adopted an ethical investment policy which is in line with current Church of England policy.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

The Society is committed to continue to assist with the maintenance of the fabric of the Church. To that end it is currently supporting the Church to develop the visitor experience and its exciting capital development – Project 450.

Implications of COVID 19 related control measures

The Trustees have considered the going concern status of the charity and conclude that there are no material uncertainties affecting the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. This has also been considered in the context of Covid-19 and the cash position at the date of signing along with future cash projections.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed/constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Legacies are included when the charity is advised by the personal representative of an estate that the payment will be made, or property transferred and the amount can be quantified.
