DIBDEN ALLOTMENTS FUND

DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUSTS OF THE CHARITY AND ITS ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE

Dibden Allotments Fund was formed as a result of an award of land in 1862 arising from the Inclosure Acts. The original purpose of the Fund was to provide ‘Allotments for the Labouring Poor of the Parish of Dibden’, and was managed by the Overseers of the Poor and the Church Wardens of the Parish. In 1894 these responsibilities were transferred to Dibden Parish Council (later re-named Hythe and Dibden Parish Council) under the provisions of the Local Government Act of that year.

In 1994 the Fund sold most of its land and received a capital sum in excess of £6.125 million. Administration of the Fund is now vested in nine Trustees and currently a clerk, with secretarial support, is employed to assist the Trustees.

In July 1995 the Charity Commission approved a new scheme as follows:

“Subject to payment of the expenses of the Charity the Trustees shall apply the income of the Charity in relieving either generally or individually persons resident in the Parish of Hythe and Dibden who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress by making grants of money or providing or paying for items, services or facilities calculated to reduce the need, hardship or distress of such persons;

If the income cannot be applied as aforesaid, the Trustees shall apply the same for any charitable purposes for the benefit of the inhabitants of the said Parish as the Trustees think fit and if and in so far as the income cannot be applied for any such charitable purposes the Trustees shall apply the same for similar purposes in the Parishes of Marchwood and Fawley”.

The name of the Fund was changed from Dibden Allotments Charity to Dibden Allotments Fund in accordance with a special resolution of the Trustees passed on 27 January 2010.

The Trustees may pay for such items, services or facilities by way of donations or subscriptions to institutions or organisations which provide or undertake in return to provide such items, services or facilities for such persons.

The Fund owns allotment land of approximately 0.68 acre at Clayfields Lane, Dibden which until October 2003 was managed on behalf of the Charity by Hythe and Dibden Parish Council. This land was valued by The Valuation Office in February 2003 at £8,000 (this figure is not included in the financial statements).

The body of Trustees is to comprise 9 competent persons, including 5 nominated and 4 co-opted Trustees. Of the nominated Trustees, 3 are to be appointed by Hythe and Dibden Parish Council, 1 by Marchwood Parish Council and 1 by Fawley Parish Council. The Trustees are responsible for running the Fund and full Trustees’ meetings are held monthly. In addition, there are two separate subcommittees of the Trustees, dealing respectively with finance and policy. These subcommittees meet as required.

New Trustees are introduced to the staff; given a tour of the office; and provided with the Fund’s Operations Manual and “The Good Trustees Guide”. They are given access to Trustee Information and Guidelines, as well as training in procedures at meetings; handling possible conflict of interest situations; and procedures and safeguards for visits to applicants.

The Trustees have delegated responsibility for the Fund’s investments to investment managers and their report is set out on page 4. The investment managers are required to achieve the maximum annual income consistent with long term growth of the capital value of the permanent endowment fund by at least inflation.

Because the Fund does not rely on fundraising for its income, a rigid reserves policy is not considered to be a priority. However, the aim of the Trustees is to keep at least 3 months’ running costs in hand to cover possible variations on income from the investment portfolio.

Grants are made by the Trustees in accordance with the 1995 scheme set out above and subject to available funds and anticipated future income. Grants are made to both individuals and organisations and details are set out in note 4 to the financial statements.

The Charity Commission requires all larger Charities to report on the risks to which they are exposed. A comprehensive review of the activities of the Fund has therefore been undertaken which concluded that theft of property, fraud and operational integrity are the main potential risks to which the Fund may be exposed. The trustees will continue to seek to mitigate these risks by a programme of internal and external audit, reporting and review procedures and insurance.

DIBDEN ALLOTMENTS FUND

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES AND PUBLIC BENEFIT

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

Charity law 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 its net movement of resources for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

Under the terms of the scheme approved by the Charity Commission in July 1995, as set out on page 2, the Fund aims to relieve conditions of need, hardship and distress and to support other charitable purposes in the parishes of Hythe and Dibden, Marchwood and Fawley. This aim is achieved by making grants to individuals and to relevant local charities and other organisations. Applications are invited from such individuals and organisations and each application is considered by the Trustees on its merits.

Financial Objectives for the year are set by the preparation of an Annual Budget and performance against these objectives are determined by monthly comparison of actual income and expenditure to the budget.

A summary of grants approved in the year is given in notes 7 and 8 to the financial statements and this includes the names of all organisations to which grants have been made. In addition, the Trustees’ report on page 4 gives further information about grants made during the year.

As required by section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, the Trustees have considered the guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of public benefit. They believe that the Fund’s aim, as set out above, falls within the definition of charitable purposes in section 2 of the Act. Although the Fund’s activities are restricted under the July 1995 scheme to the parishes set out above, no restrictions are applied within those parishes which would exclude individuals from the opportunity to benefit.

The Trustees intend to protect the Endowment Fund to ensure that it retains its value in real terms. With this achieved, the trustees wish to optimise investment income arising from the investment assets, and to minimise overheads, in order to ensure that the best use of the Fund for those in need will continue to be made for the foreseeable future.

DIBDEN ALLOTMENTS FUND INVESTMENT MANAGERS. REPORT The 12 months ending in Marth 2021 have been a good period for the investments. The charIt￿S portfolio was back above £10 million, valued at £10,616,113 at the financial year end. The COVID Inspired setback last year has been more than overcome. with the retum for the year being +19.3%. following last yearfs 6.9% ne8ative return. At the same time the intome has bounced back, forecast at £376,IX#J for the year. ABainst these volatile markets, the portfolio. havir* outperfornied Its comparator In the fall the previous year has lagged by the same amount in the recovery. The fixed interest holdings, such as the M&G and Church House bond funds. whith are amon8 the most conservative part of the portfolio, were generally down on the year. This partly reflerts a predictable reaction to their strength when things were 8loomy a year earlier, but also the continued low rates of interest. Nevertheless, we will always hold them as a bulwark of liquidity and prudence for the long-term nature of the charity. Yet there were clearty many stron8 performances from equities which have delivered the good overall perfom)ance. The most satisfactory from the charl￿S point of view wa5 the company who were the ori8inal source of the funds, Tesco. who we purchased midway through the year. The sale of their Asian buslness produced a É5billion dividend for shareholder5 and they were one of the buslnesses to find sllver linlng5 in the lockdown. Another was Dunelm whose online ￿leS growth was strong, and Warehouse Real Estate Investment Trust, whose urban warehouses are an intrinsic part of modern onlSne shopping logistics. The other area that realty thrtved in lockdown was technology and the holding of Scottish Mortgage benefitted from that. The declslon to broaden the overseas aspect of the portfollo has been a good one, as the UK has been one of the weaker stockmarkets, and we now have 21% overseas, up from 12% two years a80. It Is perhaps disappointln8 that we seem to have less world-leading companies in the UK than of old, but the world chan8e5. and we adjust our investment focus accordin81y. We are watchln8 and listenin8 to companies like Tesco and Dunelm as they are faclng supply chaln i55ues which are a global problem as the world returns to 8rowih. These shortages. tO8ether with labour market Issues, and underinvestment In certaln parts of the energy sector have combined to push inflation up. However, shortages are a reflection of strong demand, and generally inflation is reflected by growth in stock markets, and well managed companies can benefit. But there Is always concern about what the pM)licy ￿sponSe will be from central banks, and we are keeping a close eye on how and when the tapering starts (the reverse of quantitative easin& so turnin8 off the taps of the stSmulus they have been providing). A year a80, we felt confident that the portfolio was well p05itioned to ￿COVer from the market setback, and we have the same confidence that it is now well w)sitioned for the slightly uncertaln future we face as the climate crisis become5 one of the key issues dominating thinking. We have held the WHEB sustainability fund in the portfolio for 7 years now. so we have always been aware of the Issue and are confident the portfollo Is Sn a stron8 Positlon for the years ahead.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021

1. Accounting policies

Basis of Accounting. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" ("FRS 102"), "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 ("the SORP"), the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Incoming resources

Recognition of incoming resources

These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:

Income from Charitable activities

Income from the supply of services from charitable activities is recognised upon delivery of the contracted service.

Investment income

Interest receivable is included in the accounts when receivable. Income from UK and Overseas listed investments is recognised when its receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Measurement for Dividends is at the fair value receivable, which will be the transaction value upon receipt.

Expenditure

Governance costs include costs of the preparation of statutory accounts and auditors fee, the costs of trustee meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters.

Support costs are allocated to or apportioned between activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, including staff costs by time spent, where costs are incurred for more than one activity.

Depreciation of tangible fixed assets is provided for as follows in order to write of each asset over its estimated useful life: Long leasehold building - straight line over the length of the lease Office equipment - straight line over 5 years

Investments are revalued at the balance sheet date to market value. Unrealised gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities.

Liability recognition

Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past transaction, committing the charity to pay out resources.

Taxation

As a registered charity the Fund benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax, but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.

Leased Assets

Fixed assets acquired under finance leases are included in the balance sheet at cost, appropriate provision being made for depreciation. The present value of future rentals is shown as a liability. Interest payable in each period is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in proportion to the amount outstanding under the lease. Operating lease rentals are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as incurred.
