Reserves Policy
The Trustees’ policy on reserves is to accumulate income on deposit account with interest paid gross and instant access for the purpose of making donations.
Risk Management
The Trustees have examined the major strategic business and operational risks which the charity faces. To date these have been mainly related to investment management and these have now been diversified into shares.
Future Plans
The Trustees intend to continue providing grants (equivalent to income earned) in future years.
Trustees’ Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and a fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:-
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which 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. 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.

THE JOE HYMAN CHARITABLE TRUST INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JOE HYMAN CHARITABLE TRUST YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2023
This report is made solely to the Charity’s Trustees as a body, in accordance with section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011. Our work had been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity’s members as a body, for our work, or for the opinions we have formed. I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 5 April 2023 which are set out on pages 8 to 12.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act)
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanation from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required if an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether, the financial statement present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper Understanding of the accounts to be reached.
