The Trust is registered as a charity under reference number 249109. The key management personnel of the charity are the Trustees. They are in charge of directing, controlling, running and operating the charity on a day to day basis. All Trustees give of their time freely and no Trustee received any remuneration in the year. Details of Trustees’ expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements. Trustees are appointed by existing Trustees. The pay of other staff is reviewed annually and normally increased in accordance with average earnings. ## **Objectives and activities** The object of the Trust is such charitable purposes as the Trustees shall from time to time in their absolute discretion think fit. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Trust’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policy for the year. Page 1 ## **ASHBURNHAM THANKSGIVING TRUST** REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (continued) ## **Grant policies** The Trustees seek to achieve the objects of the Trust for the public benefit by supporting a wide range of Christian missionaries, together with charitable and other community organisations in the United Kingdom and worldwide. ## **Investment powers** The Trustees have power from the Trust Deed to invest Trust funds at their absolute discretion. The charity has made no social investments. ## **Financial review** The Trustees have continued to support the Christian missionaries and Christian and charitable organisations in the local community, the United Kingdom and worldwide which are known to be effective in their charitable work and to provide public benefit by their work, which is mainly focussed on the advancement of the Christian religion and the relief of poverty. The beneficiaries of the trust are ultimately those sections of the public that the organisations and individuals supported work with. Focussing support on known organisations enables the Trustees to ensure that the funds generated from its investments are used as efficiently as possible. During the year the net expenditure amounted to £49,215 (2024: net expenditure £167,989) after making charitable gifts of £179,522 (2024: £180,027) but before net gains on investments of £503,926 (2024: net gains of £184,283). At the end of the year there was undistributed income totalling £741,524 (2024: £53,210) which will be distributed in the coming years in a programme of giving amongst a portfolio of existing beneficiaries. ## **Risk review** The Trustees have reviewed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that adequate systems are in place to mitigate these risks. The Trustees consider that the principal risk and uncertainty facing the charity, to be a loss of investment income which might restrict the charity’s ability to maintain its future grant-making programme. The Trustees’ strategy for managing this risk is to spread their investment portfolio across a wide range of investment classes, to align their level of grant making to their anticipated income for the year, and to refrain from making long-term grant funding commitments. ## **Reserves** The Trustees have established a general reserve policy to allow sufficient resources for the current activities of the charity to continue in the event of a significant drop in income and to provide funds to respond to emergency applications for grants which arise from time to time. ## _General Reserves_ General Reserves are not restricted or designated for use on a particular programme or for some other defined or designated purpose. The balance on General Reserves represents free reserves. ## _Designated Funds_ Designated Funds are those unrestricted funds that have been allocated by the Trustees for particular purposes. Fixed Assets reserves totalling £8,986,132 (2024: £9,219,736) represent resources invested in the charity’s investment portfolio that are therefore not available for distribution.

FOR AND ON BEHALF OF THE TRUSTEES Mr E R Bickerslelh Trustee 4th October 2025 Page 3 ## INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF **ASHBURNHAM THANKSGIVING TRUST** ## **Opinion** We have audited the financial statements of Ashburnham Thanksgiving Trust (the “Charity”) for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is 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). In our opinion, the financial statements: - give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity’s affairs as at 5 April 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended; - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. ## **Basis for opinion** We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. ## **Conclusions relating to going concern** In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. ## **Other information** The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Page 4 ## INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF **ASHBURNHAM THANKSGIVING TRUST** (continued) ## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: - adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or - the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or - certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. - the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or - we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. ## **Responsibilities of the trustees** As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. ## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: Based on our understanding of the charity, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to charity legislation and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities Act 2011. We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by making enquiries of management, considering the internal controls in place and discussion amongst the engagement team. We determined that the principal risks were related to valuation of property and investments, and transactions with related parties. Page 5 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ASHBURNHAM THANKSGIVING TRUST (continued) In response lo the risks identified we designed procedures which included. bul were not limited lo. and challenging significant accounting estimates such as valuation of investments and Investment properties, agreeing financial statement disclosures of related party transactions to underlying supporting do¢umenlalion. and reviewing minutes of trustee meetings. There a￿ inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. The MO￿ ￿mOVed that laws and regulations are from ftnancial Iransaclions, the less likely il Is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Material misslalemenls that arise due to fraud can be harder lo delecl than those that arise Irom error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. A further descnplion of our responsibilities for the audit of the financ￿1 statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's websrte al.. www.frc.org.ukJaudilorsresponsibilities. This descnptson forms part of our auditor's report. Use of our report This report Is made solely to the Charity's trustees, as a body. In accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 Our audit work has been undertaken so Ihal we might stale lo the Charity's Iruslees those matters we are required to slate to them In an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest exlenl permitted by law. we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body. for our audit work. for this report. or for the opinions we have fomied.

It is a registered charity. The registered office is Agmerhurst House, Kitchenham Road, Ashburnham, Battle TN33 9NB. The Ashburnham Thanksgiving Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: - (a) **Basis of preparation** The accounts are prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the inclusion of investments at market value and are prepared under the Charities Act 2011 and in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS102)) and Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS102). The charity has taken advantage of the exemption from producing a cash flow statement under FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1. The financial statements are presented in sterling and figures are rounded to the nearest pound. There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue in operation. - (b) **Investments** Investments are shown at market value in the balance sheet with realised and unrealised gains/(losses) being shown in the Statement of Financial Activities as a component of net income. - (c) **Debtors and loans given** - Loans given and other debtors are included at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are revalued at the amount prepaid. ## (d) **Cash at bank and in hand** - Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of opening of the deposit. - (e) **Creditors and provisions** Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation arising from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are recognised at their settlement amount. ## (f) **Financial instruments** The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

All other income is brought into the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. ## (i) **Expenditure** Expenditure is accrued as soon as a liability is considered probable, discounted to present value for longer term liabilities. Charitable activities expenditure comprises all expenditure directly related to the objects of the charity. Raising funds comprises all the costs of managing the investment properties and investment management fees. Governance costs include the cost of compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. These are included in Charitable Activities.
