TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's 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)” effective from 1 January 2019.
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the Foundation are such exclusively charitable purposes as the Trustees may determine and in particular, but without prejudice, to that general statement:
To make contributions towards the expenses of any established charitable institution or body and the cost of any projects of study and research established by such institution or body including a contribution towards the cost of purchasing or erecting any building or land to be used in connection therewith.
To provide funds and make administrative provisions that the Trustees may deem necessary for the initiation, promotion and sponsoring of new charitable projects of education study and research and for the establishment and endowment of charitable scholarships, fellowships, professional chairs, lectureships, prize awards and institutions.
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policy for the year.
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the
charity should undertake.
The core objective of The Chetwode Foundation is to support charities that provide help to the most disadvantaged under-privileged young people in the city of Nottingham and county of Nottinghamshire, giving them opportunities to fulfil their potential, and benefit the wider community.
There are two smaller categories of giving: to local causes and to causes brought to the personal attention of the
Trustees.
Grants are made based on a scoring system, which is used to assess projects. Monitoring visits are made to projects receiving funding of £5,000 or over, in accordance with the Foundation's Terms and Conditions.
Achievements and performance
The attached financial statements give details of the financial transactions during the year and the financial position of the Foundation as at 5 April 2022.
Financial review
During the year the Foundation made grants totalling £70,760 (2021: £62,013) split between two areas as follows:
Core - 15 grants totalling £67,760 Locality - 1 grant totalling £3,000
Within the ‘Core’ category the five largest grants were: £10,000 to Framework who provide services to the homeless in Nottingham, £8,000 to Reach Learning who provide supported accommodation for the disabled in Southwell, £6,926 to Kidscape who combat problems including bullying in Nottingham schools, £6,250 to Vineyard Arches Trust who provide domestic 'white goods' for disadvantaged families in Nottingham, and £6,019 to Engineering Development Trust who encourage disadvantaged children to consider careers in science, technology and engineering.

THE CHETWODE FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
The grants made during the year have continued to fulfil the Foundation's objectives.
Net gains on investments amounted to £259,270 (2021: £733,650) contributing to a net increase in funds for the year of £243,015 (2021: £731,513).
The Trustees look to retain sufficient cash reserves as they consider necessary to respond to requests for grants. The Trustees are keen to support the level of grant aid being achieved by the charity and are looking to fund that principally from income-generating investments. At 5 April 2022, total unrestricted funds amounted to £3,124,860 (2021: £2,881,845). The Trustees are satisfied that the Foundation's assets are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations.
The Foundation's investment policy seeks to achieve a balanced return from income and capital appreciation and to maintain the value of the income stream in real terms whilst controlling the level of risk.
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operation and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Structure, governance and management
The Chetwode Foundation is an unincorporated charity established under a Deed of Settlement by the late John Chetwode Samworth dated 26 March 1973. John Chetwode Samworth died on 31 August 2014.
The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: R N J S Price
Mrs L Samworth
Mrs F M Johnson
The Settlor had the power to appoint new or additional Trustees during his lifetime. Following his death, the existing Trustees have the power to appoint new or additional Trustees. Individual Trustees are able to resign at any time by giving notice in writing.
Trustees are selected either from the late Settlor's family group, or someone with a close relationship to the late Settlor's family. On appointment, Trustees will receive appropriate training and induction.
The Trustees have the same full and unrestricted powers of investing and transferring investments as if they were beneficially entitled to the Trust Fund.
The Trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHETWODE FOUNDATION

Responsibilities and basis of report

-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Chetwode Foundation is an unincorporated charity established under a Deed of Settlement by the late John Chetwode Samworth dated 26 March 1973. John Chetwode Samworth died on 31 August 2014.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's 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)” effective 1 January 2019. 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 £.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are funds available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
1.4 Income
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity has entitlement to the funds, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources.
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such as grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year-end are noted as commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. Grants made that specify that they relate to a period after these financial statements are shown as payable in that future period.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with the administration of the charity and compliance with the constitutional and statutory requirements.
1.6 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
1.7 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, and other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
