**The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Trustees' Annual Report** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The trust is an unincorporated trust, constituted under the terms of the Settlement made by Mrs Elsbeth Waterhouse dated 9 October 1967 and is a registered charity, number 261685. The trustees hold the capital and income for exclusively charitable purposes according with the laws of England to be applied in such shares and manner as the trustees, in their absolute discretion, think fit. 

The trust is managed by the trustees, who are responsible for the delivery of its objectives. It is the trustees' aim to keep expenses to a minimum with the result that over recent years more than 98% of the trust's income has been available for grant making. 

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees would be in line with the Trust Deed and with the consent of the trustees. The criteria set for the suitable candidate would be someone who is sensitive to the needs and demands of the organisation.  A new trustee would receive copies of the previous years' Annual Report and Accounts and a copy of the Charity Commission leaflet 'The Essential Trustee : What you need to know'. 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees have identified and reviewed the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Both manual and automated checks are regularly invoked, particularly those relating to the operations and finance of the charity. The trustees are satisfied that these systems and procedures mitigate any perceived risks. 

As it is the policy of the trustees to endeavour to maintain reasonable income levels so as to continue distributing grants at similar levels to previous years, they have decided that at present, the charity should continue to invest in managed funds and to only deposit minimal funds with banks and similar institutions where returns are presently negligible.

## **The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Trustees' Annual Report** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The trust makes donations to bodies embracing a wide range of charities, the main fields supported being medical and health, welfare in the community, environment and wildlife, and church and heritage with special reference to charities in, or with branches in the North West of England. 

The trustees do not have the power to accumulate income and accordingly the income of each accounting year is fully disbursed within the following year. 

## **Public Benefit Policy** 

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. 

## **Grant Making Policy** 

Grants are made to charitable institutions and organisations which accord with the objects of the charity. 

## **Expendable endowment fund** 

Having regard to the original unrestricted endowment by the settlor, the late Mrs Elsbeth Waterhouse, and their powers under the Trust Deed (Clause 11a) to decide what monies represent capital and income, the trustees consider that: 

- (a) the capital of the Trust Fund at 5 April 2021 should be regarded as an Expendable Endowment Fund (“the Fund”), 

- (b) the value of the Fund will be adjusted for annual fluctuations in unrealised gains or losses, 

- (c) the Fund will bear the management expenses of the trust. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The trustees do not seek public donations relying upon the fund to generate income to be distributed by grants at the trustees' discretion. 

The fund generated income of £325,347 in the year and donated £321,000 to various charitable causes in accordance with the objects of the charity. In accordance with its governing document the charity has focused distributions on North West England. £271,000 (84%) of the grants distributed were to charities based in the North West or the North West operations of national charities.

## **Trustees' Annual Report** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Financial review** 

As at 5 April 2021 the charity held free reserves of £97,051 (2020:£95,540). 

## **Investment Policy** 

There are no restrictions on the trustees' power to invest. The investment strategy is set by the trustees over the long term having regard to their intention to use annual income for grants. 

Their overall policy is to invest in medium risk investment by way of managed investment funds for charitable trustees with a view to ensuring that capital appreciation of the funds exceed inflation over the long term while maintaining a level of income yields from year to year which matches London clearing bank base rates. The strategy is reviewed with the trustees' investment managers annually. 

## **Investment Performance** 

The long-term effect of the coronavirus pandemic on the charity's investments is not yet clear, however early indicators seem to show that the investments have recovered well after an initial fall in value which coincided with the previous year end. The value of the charity's investments at 5 Apr 2021 was over £850,000 (10%) higher than at 5 April 2019 before the onset of the pandemic. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Unrestricted Fund represents the unrestricted funds arising from past operating results. 

It is the policy of the trustees to maintain free reserves of approximately one quarter of the annual incoming funds to provide for possible urgent appeals for grants. Subject to this reserve, their intention is to fully distribute income by way of grants. However, they intend to review the application of this reserves policy to any realised investment gains as and when this becomes appropriate. 

## **Trustees' responsibilities statement** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. 

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and 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 applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust Deed. 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 Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 5 April 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, statement of financial position, statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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 FRS 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 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, 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 twelve 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.

## **The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. 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. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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. 

## **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: 

- the information given in the trustees' report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of 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 the trustees 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.

## **The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

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. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

We have not detected any evidence of irregularities or of fraud during the course of the audit. 

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control. 

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. 

- Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern. 

- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charity's members, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's 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 audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**The Houghton Dunn Charitable Trust** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **1. General information** 

The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is 2nd Floor, Parkgates, Bury New Road, Prestwich, Manchester, M25 0TL. 

## **2. Statement of compliance** 

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **3. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. 

## **Going concern** 

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. 

## **Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements did not require management to make judgements, estimates or assumptions that affect the amounts reported at the year end. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment. 

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Incoming resources** 

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

- income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates: 

- expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, noncharitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods. 

- expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. 

- other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities. 

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis. 

## **Investments** 

Unlisted equity investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently measured at fair value. If fair value cannot be reliably measured, assets are measured at cost less impairment. 

Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in income or expenditure. 

## **Investment property** 

Investments are included in the accounts at their market value. Any gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **Impairment of fixed assets** 

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Financial instruments** 

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
