Independent Examiners' Report to the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent Examiners’ Statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3. the accounts 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.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The Dorothy Bayles Trust

for the year ended 31 December 2022 Trustees Report

The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, 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 102 applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland effective from 1 January 2015.

Governance

The charity is administered in accordance with its constitution. It is registered under the registered charity number 271259 and its constitution has been filed with the Charity Commissioners.

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The trustees have served as stated on page 1. New trustees are selected for their willingness to help the trust without any financial reward. So far the trustees have been the offspring of the original trustees and most of them being farmers who learn their new role through coaching from existing trustees. The exception to this is the new chairman who is no relation to any of the trustees and is a chartered surveyor and land agent.

Objectives

The Charity Commission’s guidance on Public Benefit has been taken into consideration by the trustees of the trust when setting the objective’s for the trust which are to collect the rent for the farm and to ensure that all the residual funds after property maintenance, insurance, legal fees and statutory administrative costs have been deducted, are allocated to local charities and other charitable activities.

Achievements and Performance

The Trust is reliant on voluntary help only in respect to the maintenance of books and records and the administration tasks of collecting and distributing rental income and general duties. During the year there were no individual grants made in excess of £8,000. There were no transactions with connected parties.

Investment Power

As per the constitution, the trustees have the powers to invest the monies comprised in the trust fund.

Reserves Policy

The trustees consider that the trust fund has adequate reserves to cover its expenditure. This is because donations are given from the trust fund but only to the extent that they are covered by income each year. The trust has no commitment regarding annual donations.

Risk Management

The trustees have reviewed systems to ensure that adequate controls are now in place so as to lessen the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces.

Approval

This report was approved by the trustees on 22/06/2023 and signed on their behalf by:

Mrs N J Madden
