OBJECllVES AND AcfIvITJLS DURING THE YEAR The Truste&% have continued to operate as thev did under the leadership of Lord Gavron, the settlor and Chatr of the Tnt, until his death in Febtuary 2015. "the Tn has supported a similar range of chariiable causes as in previous years, the principal 8r¢&% of support being access to th¢ arts, educatioty eharilies working in prison5, hurt1 rights and charities fo¥ the dssabled. The Trllsi has supported a number ofcharities working in prisons as they believe this LS itnportan:. and necessary work for which it is dilficult to rai* fLdS. In addition, the growiug need for food banks IS Led to a nutnber of dollations to fiMxI banks and related ¢ItIes. Support given to chai'ities been in the forn) of monetary donations made at the discretion of the Trustecs. A list of the larger is given on p&ge IS of this report.
THE ROBERT GAVRON CHARITABLE TRUST PAGE 4 FINANCIAL STATLM, EE(rs FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5TH APRIL 2025 TRUSTEES, RBPORT.......jclltinued The Trustees continue to give support in tbe forn) of either otie-off grants or commitrnents to donations s?re&d over more than one year, and the Tru5Vs reserves rewain suffLcient for CXiStin& ci)TnmitWEnts. When the Trustres commit themselves to akiug donation5 over 5everaE years these commitments are reflected in the Trusts annual accounts in the forni of doii&tions chged to accumulated tncome alld are shov*TL as deSIted funds ill the balance sheet. The TTustres believe that Ét is helpful for the beneficiaries to know what they may exIrt and when to ¢ct the prollLi5ed fimd5 for the purposes of their own plallning. In the past year the uniyersiry access scheme at MoTpeth Schwl in Tower Hamle'ts, London, which set up in the memory of IAbrd Ciavron, contknued to er.courage Sdents to aspire to university education. Thtts is illtended in particular for students from families w'ithout a history of tertiary education. The sch¢)ol has desigDed a programme to create interest in university among both students aud th¢w famili or calers. and it s0 includes bursaTies for exception students. Among other larger grants have been donalions to clwities with whith the Tru5tV5 themselves are or have been connected a5 Tte¢S and adTrisors (see notE OIi p.18). The long-tern donatioDS giveft to the Barbados CTick£t Assoclation, which have beetk used for ilLe encourw.ment and nurturing of promising young cricketers, bave re5ulteO in a number of WIrerS of the Lord GavroD Award Plallg in the West IndiGs teams over the years. This is a Trindication of both the schem¢ and of the selwtors of the Barbados Cricket Ass181]0 Small Grapjls." In many c&ses the Trustees prefer to mwke grants to orgaThizalions whost WO they p¢rsonally know and admire. This does noL however, mean that ¢harities unknown to the TNstees persollally do not receive grts. Anthony Dance, the Trust AdTninistratt)r, visits and reEx)rts on some applications to the TNst and hi5 reports are taken into accouttt by th¢ Tmstees when they make their decisions. Thi5 leads to a numixr of grants to n¢w org2nizaiioLS during each f]nancial year. These irkclud¢ $tnall clwities workitig in areas which cannot easily rdise ndS and which are withoui the resources theTnselves fDr prOfs1on&l fimd-raisin& The TrnsÉ has ai50 ¢ontinll¢d ttTr help previously funded small charities whÉch come into these categories.
