The Report of the Trustees

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2025.

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the Trust Deed, and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.

Objects

The objects of the Trust as given in the Trust Deed are such charitable purposes or charitable institutions as the Trustees may in their discretion determine.

Achievements and Performance

During the year the Trustees considered proposals under the following categories:

Arts and Heritage - UK Overseas Education Health and Social Welfare

Proposals are generally invited by the Trustees or initiated at their request. Trustees aim to support innovative schemes that can be successfully replicated or become self-sustaining. Trustees do not normally make grants to individuals. Grants were made to new and previously funded organisations, and to organisations with grant schemes for other organisations and individuals. A significant number of grants were made towards Cost of Living initiatives.

There have been no significant changes in the grant-making policies of the Trust over the period under review.

Charity and Public Benefit

Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to it. They consider the full information which follows in this annual report, about the Trust’s aims, activities and achievements in the many areas of interest that the Trust supports demonstrates the benefit to its beneficiaries, and through them to the public, that arise from those activities.

Review of the Past Period

The Trustees met four times during the year to make grants and twice to review investment activity.

The asset value of the Trust decreased by 11.4% from £71.6 million at 5 April 2024 to £63.4 million at 5 April 2025 due to capital spend. The net unrestricted income of the Trust for the year after charging grant related support costs was £1.0 million compared to £1.6 million for the year to 5 April 2024.

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

THE HEADLEY TRUST 5 A p r i l 2 0 2 5

During the year grants to the value of £10.6 million were approved (2024: £4.1 million). The increase of approved grants compared to last year is due to the approval of a £5 million grant to the British Museum Development Trust. Certain grants are payable over more than one year and those due to be paid after 5 April 2025 and not accrued in these accounts amounted to £3.8 million at the year end. Grants paid of £7.7 million to 5 April 2025 include payments from capital as follows:

National Gallery £2,250,000 British Museum Development Trust £1,250,000

Trustees have decided that the best way of benchmarking the expenses incurred in running the charity is to measure these costs relative to its day to day activity of grant-making, as income alone is an unsuitable benchmark for charitable activity. On that basis, grant related support costs represented 8% of the value of grants paid, which totalled £7.7 million (2024: 10%).

Reserves Policy and Going Concern

It is the policy of the Trustees to approve grants for payment over a period of years, subject to certain conditions over the life of the grant. Those expected to be paid within twelve months of the year end are accrued in the accounts, whilst those due to be paid later than this are not accrued. These are referred to in note 4 to the accounts and amount to £3.8 million. They represent funds earmarked for continued support to certain existing beneficiaries, although formal commitments have not yet been made.

The Trustees consider that when possible, it is appropriate to hold free funds, both to meet the short-term working capital needs of the Trust and in anticipation of the potential payment of subsequent grant instalments. In the event that the Trustees find themselves unable to meet current commitments from unrestricted reserves, they would be willing to draw on the expendable endowment in order to meet those commitments as they see fit.

There was a deficit on unrestricted reserves of the charity at 5 April 2025. The Trustees considered the extent to which this deficit would be met by future income and concluded that it would be appropriate to make a transfer of £6.5 million from the expendable endowment which is included within the Statement of Financial Activities.

Cash flow projections for income and expenditure are regularly reviewed to ensure that the level of available resources is adequate and that the Trust is in a position to meet all its commitments.

As at 5 April 2025, the Trust held total funds of £63.4 million (2024: £71.6 million), comprising an expendable endowment fund of £63.1 million (2024: £70.7 million) and unrestricted reserves of £0.2 million (2024: £0.9 million).

Investment Policy and Performance

Trustees meet with their investment managers regularly to discuss investment strategy and to seek to ensure that the Trust’s income requirements are met, also that long-term capital growth is in line with relevant indices. The Trustees normally hold investments for the long term and look to income and capital growth for their grant making.

The Trust’s portfolio decreased in value over the past 12 months to 5 April 2025. The main portfolio generated a total return net of all costs of -1.1%. This was behind the composite benchmark return of +0.4% and the ARC Steady Growth Charity peer group index return of

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

THE HEADLEY TRUST 5 A p r i l 2 0 2 5

+2.7%. Markets were volatile but strong for much of 2024, largely in anticipation of and just after the US presidential election. The period of uncertainty that emerged post-election, particularly following the announcement and implementation of a new tariff regime, resulted in notable market declines between February and April 2025.

While the portfolio captured some gains from equities during 2024, it lacked sufficient exposure to certain asset classes that outperformed following the US election result, such as US smaller companies, banks, and specific stocks including Tesla. In response to rising market risks, the portfolio was de-risked in the first quarter of 2025, with a shift away from high-growth technology stocks in favour of more defensive sectors. Allocations to cash and gold were also increased to provide downside protection in the event of further market weakness.

The Trust received £1.6 million of income (2024: £2.2 million) over the 12-month period and a further £6.5 million was withdrawn from the portfolio to support the Trust’s grant expenditure (2024: £3.8 million).

Investment Powers

The Trust Deed empowers the Trustees to appoint investment managers, who have discretion to invest the funds of the Trust within guidelines established by the Trustees.

Risk Assessment

The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks to which the Trust may be exposed. Through the joint office of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, systems are in place to meet such potential risks as the Trustees have identified. The Trustees continue to be vigilant and to keep processes under review.

The Trustees identified the uncertainty of financial returns to constitute the charity's major financial risk. This is mitigated by having a diversified financial portfolio under the management of a major investment house. The Trustees regularly review investment strategy and monitor financial performance. They also operate a grant distribution formula which helps to ensure the stability of resources available for grant awards in any given year.

Another major risk is a misuse of funds by a beneficiary. To mitigate this risk the Trustees normally restrict grants to charities registered with the Charity Commission or equivalent bodies. The awards are made following a thorough assessment and grants are regularly monitored; multi-year grants are paid only on receipt of satisfactory progress reports.

Organisation

The Trust is one of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts (SFCT), which share a common administration.

Trustees are appointed by the Settlor and are provided with relevant information relating to their responsibilities as Trustees.

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

THE HEADLEY TRUST 5 A p r i l 2 0 2 5

Trustees are aware of the Charity Governance Code as updated in 2020 which sets out the principles and recommended practice for good governance within the sector. The Trust has reviewed its governance arrangements against the principles within the code and believes that it is compliant with the code whilst maintaining its need to operate its governance efficiently.

The remuneration of the senior staff (including key management personnel) is reviewed by the Trustees on an annual basis taking into account the requirements of their role and performance during the year. From time to time the SFCT Management Committee benchmarks pay levels against comparable positions in similar organisations.

The Trust and its Trustees are fully aware of the requirements and duties set out in the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016. The Trustees do not undertake fundraising from the general public and do not use professional fundraisers or commercial participators.

The income of the Trust is not bound by any regulatory scheme, and the Trustees do not consider it necessary to comply with any voluntary code of practice relating to fundraising. They have received no complaints in relation to any fundraising activities. As they do not approach individuals for the purpose of raising funds, they do not have specific requirements related to fundraising activities, nor do they consider it necessary to design specific procedures to monitor such activities.

The Trustees are responsible for the overall direction and supervision of the Headley Trust; they set the Trust’s strategy, review proposals and approve grants. The Trustees delegate day-to-day operations to the Trust’s Lead Executive, Helen McLeod.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the period and of its financial position at the end of the period. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that 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. 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 Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of Headley Trust

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of the Headley Trust (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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:

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 Headley Trust’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.

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees’ responsibilities set out in the Trustees’ annual report, 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.

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

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 are set out below.

Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

Report and Accounts – 5 April 2025

THE HEADLEY TRUST 5 A p r i l 2 0 2 5

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

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.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity's Trustees 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 Trustees 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 Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CHARITY INFORMATION

The charity is unincorporated and registered in England and Wales with the Charity Commission (registration number 266620).

The address of the registered office is: The Peak 5 Wilton Road London SW1V 1AP

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair view' and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.

In the view of the Trustees, there are no material uncertainties casting doubt on the going concern of the charity.

Having assessed the Trust's financial position and plans for the foreseeable future, the Trustees are satisfied that it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.

The endowment assets of the Trust remain significant, and the Trust will continue to pay out to its beneficiaries in accordance with the Trust's objects.

b) Income

Income is shown gross, including the associated tax credit unless the tax so deducted is considered irrecoverable.

Dividends are included by reference to their due dates.

Interest is recorded when it has been received.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued

c) Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Costs of generating funds represent amounts paid to the Trust's external investment advisors.

Charitable activities expenditure comprises grants and donations awarded by the Trustees in accordance with the criteria set out in the Trust Deed, together with grant related support costs. Grants payable are made to third parties in furtherance of the charity's objects. Single or multi-year grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and that any condition attaching to the grant is outside of the control of the charity.

The view of the trustees is that any instalments payable within 12 months of the reporting date are expected to be paid regardless of the status of attached conditions and so these are accrued. Any payments due in more than 12 months from the reporting date, where conditions exist that have not been met at the reporting date, are not accrued but are reported as an unaccrued future commitment.

Grants approved subject to conditions that have not been met at the year-end are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Grant related support costs represent staff, office and governance costs incurred in managing the grant award programme. They include a share of the staff and office costs of the joint offices of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, which are allocated in proportion to the time spent on Trust matters and grants paid.

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include fees for statutory audit and legal fees where relevant.

d) Investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. Any change in fair value will be recognised in the statement of financial activities. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading “Net gains/(losses) on investments” in the statement of financial activities.

e ) Financial instruments

The Trust has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued

f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand, cash held for reinvestment and short term deposits.

g) Fixed assets

Fixed assets are depreciated at rates which reflect their useful life to the Trust. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the outstanding life of the lease at the time the work was completed. The following rates have been used:

(2021) Leasehold improvements - 14.28% per annum

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £5,000. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use. Major components are treated as a separate asset where they have significantly different patterns of consumption of economic benefits and are depreciated separately over its useful life.

h) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

i) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

j) Pensions

Contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the statement of financial activities in the period to which they relate.

k) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

ln the application of the charity's accounting policies, which are described in note 1, Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates, assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects the current and future periods.

ln the view of the Trustees, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affecting assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year.
