## **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document**

## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

The Wyndham Charitable Trust is a straightforward small family trust. The founder set it up, more than 50 years ago, primarily to handle his charitable giving during his lifetime – and to continue afterwards. The initial endowment was £1, but, over the years, additions have been made to it, particularly in more recent years. As can be seen from the accounts, the figure is approaching £3 million – invested in five funds designed specifically to meet the needs of charities, with no outgoings from the Trust’s funds to service the investments. 

While it is an ‘expendable’ endowment, it is the practice of the trustees to leave it undisturbed, since any realisation would result in reduced investment income in the future. In the same way, the trustees are not too concerned by temporary changes in the value of the investments, taking the view that it is the income generated which is important and, over the long term, if income increases, over time, the capital value, also, can be expected to rise. 

Some trustees have a particular interest in certain charities, but the overall approach of the Trust is to contribute funds to charities which help people who are in some kind of trouble – or to try to help them to avoid trouble. Helping to stamp out modern-day slavery, and contributing to fund the work being undertaken against cancer, are two examples. Funds are also given to help prisoners, those with leprosy, or who need practical assistace in this country to put food on the table. 

To comply with the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit, the trustees only make grants/donations to charities which they believe adhere to that guidance. As mentioned above, the bulk of outward payments are to charities which aim to help those in trouble (or potential trouble) in a wide variety of situations. A full list of the charities which have been given financial assistance is included in this report. 

The trustees wish to record their gratitude to Promomagic Ltd for continuing to provide pro bono services in connection with the Trust’s website. 

The trustees continue to be most grateful to Mr Ian Nelson for his role as the Trust’s Honorary Independent Examiner, which has continued over a long period.

Covid, with working from home for so many, resulted in a slowing-down of many aspects of business and private affairs. The situation, so far, is by no means back to ‘normal’, with some charities taking a significant time to present the Trust’s cheques for payment. 

One positive feature is that many meetings which in pre-Covid days were held ‘in person’ are now available, as well, on-line. This can prove useful when it would not be practical to attend the meeting in pertson. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by  volunteers.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

It was a good year for the Trust – and, no doubt, would have been even better without Covid.  Income from all sources was at a record level, and this enabled the trustees to donate more than £100K in a year for the first time. 

Nevertheless, it was not all good news. Warning had been given that income from the Sarasin investment would be less than in the previous year. The Property Fund managed an increase in income, having suffered to some extent in earlier years from tenants feeling the financial effects of Covid. 

All the new donations of capital since 2018-2019 have been invested in the COIF Global Equity Fund. As a result, it continued to provide a useful increase in income. 

Initially, the trustees under-estimated the level of income which would be achieved during the year, and set the outward donations accordingly. When it became clear that those estimates would be exceeded, additional donations were made to a few of the charities. These included contributions to the Friends of a hospital, and to a hospice, in the area of two of the trustees, together with a facility providing free food and essentials to those in need. Support Anti-Slavery International, also, was increased. 

## **Section E                    Financial review**

**Brief statement of the** There is a revenue reserve so that, if necessary, in any year **charity’s policy on** more can be paid out than has been received. (The Trust does **reserves** not anticipate having significant expenses) **Details of any funds materially in deficit** 

**Further financial review details (Optional information)** 

- You **may choose** to include Investment policy is simply to secure rising income over the 

- additional information, years. It is not the current intention to realise capital to increase 

- where relevant about: the level of donations made 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. 

Taking one year with another, the trustees aim to distribute the income received. The Trust does not make long-term funding commitments. If money does not come in, it cannot be given away. If thought desirable, investment funds could be realised 

The Trust invests in professionally managed collective investment vehicles which either are charities or are designed for charities. In this way, diversification is achieved. Such investments are not in the ‘high risk’ category
