The Garfield Weston Trust for St Paul’s Cathedral
Trustees Annual Report
The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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 SORP).
The Trustees who served during the year are set out on page 2 of the financial statements.
The Trustees are fully aware of the guidance from the Charity Commissioners under the Charities Act 2011 in relation to Public Benefits and are mindful of their obligations to have regard to this. The Trustees are confident the Trust’s activities are in pursuit of its objects and are delivering Public Benefit.
In carrying out the objectives stated in the Trust Deed of the Garfield Weston Trust for St Paul’s Cathedral, it is the policy of the Trustees to direct funds to specific projects where relevant, but not to the exclusion of the maintenance of the Cathedral Fabric.
In 2023 the Trust’s income was £121,683 (2022: £121,315), net income before gains and losses on investments was £86,696 (2022: £36,959) and net movement in funds, after gains and losses, was a gain of £369,753 (2022: loss of £681,581).
The Trust’s investment portfolio was valued at £4,968,496 on 31 December 2023 compared to £4,536,021 at the start of the year. The Trustees consider the Fund to be invested in a well-balanced and diversified portfolio: 74% (2022:71%) equities, 9% (2022:9%) in fixed interest and bonds, 6% (2022:7%) in property, 9% (2022:10%) other investments and 2% (2022:3%) in cash) and capable of earning acceptable returns.
The day-to-day management of the Trust’s funds is carried out by the independent fund manager, Investec. They were given instructions on investment objectives to achieve a balanced return from income and capital on a broad range of investments. The fund manager’s performance has been reported quarterly to each Trustee and reviewed at least annually by the Trustees.
Appointment of Trustees
As set out in the Trust Deed, there shall be at least three Trustees and not more than eight, and the power of appointing new or additional Trustees is vested in the serving Trustees. New Trustees are briefed on the objectives and working of the Trust by the Chair. Much of such briefing takes place before the Trustee is formally appointed, as part of the invitation process. To date, Trustees have not felt the need to attend formal training courses relating to the duties and responsibilities of Trustees because of their existing experience.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees’ objective is to maintain sufficient unrestricted reserves in designated or general funds, to be able to continue to provide appropriate support to St Paul’s Cathedral, in periods of fluctuations in the Trust’s income or exceptionally heavy expenditure on the maintenance and repair of the Fabric.
Economic Outlook
The Trustees review the Trust’s investment performance and estimated income yield at each Trustee meeting.

Trustees Annual Report (continued)
Going Concern and Principal Risks
The Trustees take into consideration any risks and uncertainties which might have an impact on the income of the Trust over the next 12 months. Taking into account the fact that the investment funds are managed on a targeted total return basis and that grants to the Cathedral are not guaranteed in any one year, the Trustees are confident that the Trust will continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the date the financial statements are authorised.
Plans for future period
The performance and the returns from the investment funds are regularly reported by the fund manager and monitored by the Trustees. The funds are managed on a targeted total return basis and it is anticipated that the levels of future returns will enable future grants to be made available for payment to St Paul’s Cathedral.
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
Under the Charities’ Act 2011 the Trustees are responsible for preparing financial statements for each financial year, which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Trust, the financial activities during the year and its financial position at the end of every year.
In preparing these financial statements, giving a true and fair view, 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 judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures, disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will continue its activities.
The Trustees are required to act in accordance with the Trust Deed and keep proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the Trust within the framework of the trust law. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Trust and prevent and detect fraud and irregularities. The Trustees believe that all investments held or acquired during the year are in accordance with the powers available as described in the Trust Deed.

GARFIELD WESTON TRUST FOR ST PAULS
Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Garfield Weston Trust for St Pauls for the Year Ended 31 December 2023
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Garfield West Trust for St Pauls (the 'Trust') for the year ended 31 December 2023, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Statement of Financial Position, 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) and Charities SORP 2019
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the Trust's affairs as at 31 December 2023 and of its profit for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
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 Trust 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 trustee's 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 Trust's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were 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 trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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.

GARFIELD WESTON TRUST FOR ST PAULS
Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Garfield Weston Trust for St Pauls for the Year Ended 31 December 2023
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Report) Regulations 2008 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
-
Sufficient accounting reports have not been kept, or
-
The financial statement are not in agreement with the accounting records
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities 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 Trust'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 Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
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:
Based on our understanding of the Trust and the industry in which it operates, we determined that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations relate to the reporting framework (FRS 102 and Charities SORP 2019) and UK corporate taxation laws, environmental legislation, health and safety legislation, anti-bribery legislation and data protection legislation. These risks were communicated to our audit team and we remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout our audit.
We understood how the Trust is complying with relevant legislation by making enquiries of management and those responsible for legal and compliance procedures. We also considered the results of our audit procedures and to what extent these corroborate this understanding and assessed the susceptibility of the Trust’s financial statements to material misstatement. This included consideration of how fraud might occur and evaluation of management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements.
We designed our audit procedures to identify any non-compliance with laws and regulations. Such procedures included, but were not limited to, inspection of any regulatory or legal correspondence; challenging assumptions and judgements made by management; identifying and testing journal entries with a focus on large or unusual transactions as determined based on our understanding of the business; and identifying and assessing the effectiveness of controls in place to prevent and detect fraud.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there remains a risk that a material misstatement may not have been detected, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to detect all instances of non-compliance.

The Garfield Weston Trust for St Paul’s Cathedral
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
The primary responsibility for the detection and prevention of fraud rests with those responsible for governance and management. The further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the auditor will become aware of it.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment, collusion, omission, misrepresentation or forgery.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Trust’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Charities Act 2011. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Trust’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 Trust and the Trust’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
