The object of the Trust continues to be to make donations to general charitable causes which the Trustees consider worthy of support as instructed by the Trust Deed. The funds of the charity are all invested in investment properties.
CONSTITUTION
The Trust was created by deed on the 17 January 1974 and is an unincorporated charity (Registered Charity No 267018).
The address of its principal office is:
Freeths 1 Vine Street London W1J 0AH

During the year to 5 April 1998 the Charity’s accounting policy for valuation of investment properties was changed so that these are now stated at market value rather than cost.

THE GOLDHILL FAMILY CHARITABLE TRUST
TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Trustees are required under the Charities Act 2011 to prepare financial statements for each financial year and which give a true and fair view of the Charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and:
-
a. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
b. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
c. state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
d. prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and which enable them to ascertain the financial position of the Charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
THE GOLDHILL FAMILY CHARITABLE TRUST
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on pages 6 to 13, which have been prepared under the historical cost convention (as modified to include the revaluation of investments), and the accounting policies set on page 8.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act, and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters as set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act.
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
