OBJECTIVES. AcnvmES, RISK MANAGEMEKf AND RESPONSIBILMES The Trust's purpose is to make grants to other c*aritable bodies for the relief of all kinds of social distress and disadvantage. There has been no material change in the Trust's policy of making donations to mostly small local Charities dealing with all kinds of disadvantsge, wilh preferences to neighborhood-base(I communty projects and for innovatory work with less FK)pular groups.
The routine business of the Trust conlinues to be carrie(l out on a voluntary basis by the Senior Trustee, the Honorary Treasurer and four ftjrther Trustees. During this year the Trusys Auditor has also agreed to assist in an advisory capacty. A part-time Administrator assists them. There are currently six Trustees in total. Decisions on Grants and the management of the Trusys assets continue to be made by the Board of Trustees as a whole at regular meetings. As Trustees of the Ttuemark Trust we are duty bcmjnd to demonstrate not only competence, challenge, and knowtedge of chanty affairs, but to make ourselves aware of any significant risks which the Charity may face on a regular basis and to ensure that the annual review of our financial and operational affairs carried out through our intemal discussions and audit programme will provide sufficient resources to ded with any adverse conditions. As to any fresh and significant risks and responsibilities whith Ihe Charity may face in the future, we have been concemed Ihat°digital continuiV of documents (that is the ability to US8 our informatlon In the way we need. for as long as we need) and the availability of two signalmres re cheques and other legal documents can both be put at risk by death. accident, thanges in organisation. management. processes. technology. holidays, or travel. In practical terms. our informatlon is only usable rf we can find TL open rt. work with i( understand It and trust it. In order th8r8fore for us to malntsin information (x)ntinuity and th8 ability to do our business, we ensuro that our Administrator acts as a hub for all infonnation, and in case of accident that her infomiatlon system will be understood and accessible to at least one named Trustee. The Trust88s hav8 assessed the disclosures made in the Trustee's reFM)rt and consider that these SLrfidenlly datail the slgnffjicant actlvib'es undertaken in order to cary out the charity's aims for the public benefit. When planning the Charity's activrties, the Trustees hav& given regard to the Charity Commisslons guFdance on public benefit. 3. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE In the year endlng 5th April 2025, the Truemark Trust made: 87-grdnts totaling £467.500. giving an average grant of £5.374 (compared to the year endlng 5th April 2024: 62 grants totaling £316,5fy) givirvJ an average of £5,105 per grant) A detailed list of grants and loans made in the year is induded in note 5 of the attathed accounts. Hislorlcally the Trustees met quarterly but mre reguLgr meetings have tsken place slnce the CovSd 19 Pandemic to ensure a swifter distribution of funds and there are no plans for this to change. The TTUStees feel that thr obiectsves have been adequatety met this year. However the Trustees are aware that there are extemal factor5 which could affect the achievements of their objectives. In respect of investments these are dependent on the genepl perfomiance of the UK rnarkets. In order to minirnrze this, the Trustees have set prudent Investrnent policies and pla reliance on the tethnical exportise and foresght of investment managers to monitor and adwse on necessary investment changes and suitable asset allcKations. Ther8 are no restrictions on the ChaliS power to invest The investrnent strategy is set by the Twstees arNY takes into account income requirements. the risk profile and the investrnent managerfs view of the market prowects in the medium temi. The overall investment policy is to maximize total return. DurirvJ the year Ihe tharity has Kxjthlios of investrnents managed ty Cazenove. The investrnents market value as at 5 April 2025 £543.012 (5 April 2024 of £373.487).
Overall the investment portfolio has maintained performance and the investments are boing made in accordance with the Trustees, investrnent policy s8t out above. The Trustees a satisfied with the overall performance of the investments and remain satisfied that their investment objectives are being mgt and their policy is being achieved. 4. FINANCIAL REVIEW The Twsys strategi¢ income policy is to increase both the capital value wherever possible and the inccme of its assets and to achwe the maximum distribution of income consistent prudent management. As an endowed Charity. the Trust has never madè an appeal for funds. The Trust's income continues to derive from residential properties. from charitable common investment funds and from bank interest. In rent years the government reduced our dividend income by taxation and introduced legislation that has steadily added to our residential property costs over and abovg inftation. and thus to the level of reserves required to maintain the Propert5es both to a satisfactory standard and to ensure that they meet ujrrent regulatory requirements. Accordingly, we continue to carefully review the performan of our residential properties (see 5 below), and whilst we keep infornied about our Investment Fund Man8geTS' policies we ntinUe to be satisfied with their overall performance. The Twstees confirm that all the Trust's investments are in line with the original deed, being in ett)Ical commn investment funds. and Ihe Trustees have been advised by their Fund Managers that our indirect exposure is less than 50h in ar8as of concem e.g. tobacco. amments etc. After making appropriate enquiries. the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foSeeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial ststements. 5. PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS During the year under review, in conjunction with our respective managers. we have continued our previously established strategic approach to the indivldual and collective Strengths. Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, in respect of all our inveslment funds and residential properties. As alluded to in last year's report consideration to forning a new CIO was high on Ihis year's Agenda and after much discussion, research and support from the Trust's Legal and Financial Advisors the Trustees are delighted to confimi that the Truemark Trust and Tho Inlight Trust will merge into a newly fomiod CIO called the Truelight Trust with 8ffect from 6th April 2025. This will therefore be the last Annual Report for The Truemark Trust Considerable thought was given tr) the new CIO and in parbcular the need to continue with the ethos of the original Trust to ensure the Founders wishes remain at the forefront of how the new CIO 11 function and areas they wish to support. All parties nnected wtlh the newly created CIO are very happy that this has been achieved We have continued with our more attentive approach to residential properties; we continue to dispose of selected older properties in which there are no longer Regulated Tenants, in favour of acquiring more modem properties. 6.
