## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Charity’s governing document is its Trust Deed dated 31 May 1973, as amended by a resolution dated 10 March 2015.  The Charity Registration Number is 272788. 

The appointment of Trustees is under the control of the Trustees already appointed.  No Trustee received any remuneration or was reimbursed any expenses during the current or previous year. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the exposure to major risks. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The Trustees have complied with the duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of public benefit. 

## **Fundraising** 

The organisation does not actively fundraise from the public, no professional fundraisers or commercial participators are engaged.  Where donations are received this is on a voluntary basis from individuals and is not actively sought.  Fundraising in the Charity sector has been regulated by the Fundraising Regulator (FR) since 2015 but the organisation is not specifically registered.  The Trustee Board is not aware of any failure by the Charity to comply with this regulation and no complaints have been received in relation to any form of fundraising.

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023 (continued)** 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The Trust Deed obliges the Trustees to apply the Trust income to such charities and for such charitable purposes and in such proportions and in such manner and subject to such terms and conditions as they may determine. 

The Trustees respond to numerous written requests for donations from a wide range of charities and the donations made are set out in the Schedule of Donations on pages 13 to 15 of the financial statements.  The Trustees regularly discuss the policy of donations.  The Trustees believe that the donations fulfil the Charity’s public benefit requirement. 

The Trustees are empowered to invest the Trust Fund as they may think fit.  During the year the Trustees committed to 92 grants of £1,000 or more and 126 under £1,000. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

The level of return on investments has remained consistent allowing the Charity to continue its donations policy.  During the year the Trustees gave priority to organisations in York and North Yorkshire and the level of requests from these was relatively high. 

## **Financial Review** 

The Trust investments are shown in the balance sheet at market value, except for unlisted securities, which are valued at estimated cost at date of gift.  The shares shown as unlisted securities under Note 4 on page 11 are shares in a private company and their transferability and yield are under the direct control of the directors of that company; consequently the Trustees take a conservative view as to the reliance they can place on the shares generating a good regular return by way of dividend, and the marketability of those shares. 

The Trust has made a deficit of £342,999 (2022: surplus - £78,524) for the year. 

The Trust is empowered to pay or apply the Trust Fund as the Trustees may from time to time determine.  The Trust holds unrestricted reserves of £708,570 (2022 - £1,051,569) to enable it to generate funds to apply for charitable purposes.  Free reserves at the year end stood at £404,928 (2022 - £747,927) which excluded £303,642 (2022 - £303,642) of unlisted investments as these are not readily saleable. 

The Trust has established a policy of making a large number of regular small grants over a wide range of organisations.  In order to continue this policy without interruption, the level of reserves has been set to generate sufficient income into perpetuity.  The level of reserves is reviewed regularly to ensure they fall in line with the Charity’s requirements. 

The Trust’s principal source of funding is from the return on its investments.  The key objectives of the Trust have been supported in the year to 5 April 2023 as 98% of the Trust’s expenditure related to charitable donations. 

## **Plans for Future Periods** 

The Charity plans to continue the activities outlined above in the forthcoming years, subject to satisfactory returns on investments held. 

## **Approval**

## **The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

## **Statement of Trustees’ accounting and reporting responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The 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 state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principals in the Charities SORP; 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

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, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed.  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 Charity 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 Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

I report on the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 5 April 2023 which are set out on pages 6 to 15. 

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011.  My independent examination work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my independent examination work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of the Trustees and Examiner** 

The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements.  The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for the year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 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. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Report** 

Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act.  I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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 financial statements presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and the seeking of 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 financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters 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 financial statements which accord with the accounting records and 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 financial statements to be reached.

**The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

## **Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: 

## **1.1 Charitable Trust information** 

The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust is a Charity established by Trust Deed dated 31 May 1973, as amended by a Scheme dated 10 March 2015, and registered with the Charity Commission under Charity number 272788.  The Charity’s principal office address is 69 Holgate Road, York, YO24 4AA. 

## **1.2 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis 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 (FRS102) (Charities SORP (FRS102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland (FRS102) 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 Charities SORP (FRS 102) rather than Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

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. 

The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **1.3      Going concern** 

The Trustees have prepared financial projections, taking into consideration the current economic climate and its potential impact on the sources of income and planned expenditure.  They have a reasonable expectation that adequate financial resources are available to enable the Charity to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and have adequate contingency plans in the event that income streams are reduced.  Thus, the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities (“SoFA”) in the year in which it is receivable. 

## **1.5 Income from investments** 

Dividend and interest income from investment funds is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of dividends and interest paid or payable by the Fund Manager. 

Interest income from cash deposits and listed investments is recognised in the accounts gross, when receivable. 

## **1.6 Expenditure** 

Expenditure (excluding grants) is included in the SoFA on an accruals basis. 

Charitable activities include support expenditure associated with the administration and issuing of grants. 

8 



## **The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

## **Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023 (continued)** 

## **1.7 Grants** 

Grants payable are commitments (including payments) made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the Charity.  Single or multi-year grants are accounted for as grants payable 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 any condition attaching to the grant is outside the control of the Charity. 

## **1.8 Fixed asset investments** 

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument. 

Listed investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The listed investment portfolio is held to generate returns and gains for the Charity and accordingly is designated as fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”).  Under this designation the portfolio is revalued at each period end to its fair value, as determined by reference to quoted market prices and values determined by independent fund managers, with any gains or losses going through the SoFA. 

Unlisted investments are initially measured at cost and are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period.  These shares generate a good regular return by way of dividend and their yield generating ability has remained constant over the past years. There has been no indication of impairment of the unlisted securities at the year end. 

## **1.9       Financial instruments** 

The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.  The Charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments in accordance with section 11 of FRS 102.  Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and are subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

The Trust does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments. 

## **1.10     Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity held for working capital. 

## **1.11     Creditors, loans and provisions** 

Creditors, loans 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, loans and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. 

Amounts recognised as provisions are best estimates of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. 

## **1.12     Fund accounting** 

All funds received in the year are unrestricted in their application, the Trustees having full discretion over their use. 

## **1.13     Taxation** 

The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust is a registered Charity and as such is a Charity within the meaning of Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010.  Accordingly, the Charity is potentially entitled to tax exemption under part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 in respect of income and gains arising.

**The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

## **Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023 (continued)** 

## **1.14   Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  The estimates and associated 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 both current and future periods. 

The Trustees have judged that, as disclosed in note 4, the carrying value of unlisted securities estimates has a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities.

**The Sylvia and Colin Shepherd Charitable Trust** 

## **Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2023 (continued)** 

## **3. Charitable activities expenditure (continued)** 

To comply with Charities SORP (FRS 102) non-performance grants are reported in the SoFA on approval of an application.  In some cases, payment may be spread over a period of time which gives rise to future commitments.  These are reported as creditors and shown in notes 6 and 7. 

There were no staff employed by the Charity (2022 – no staff employed).  The Trustees are unpaid and did not receive any benefits or expenses from the Charity in the year (2022 - £nil). 

Included within administration and accountancy fees are the Examiner’s accountancy services fee of £1,825 (2022 - £2,482) and Independent Examination fee of £1,825 (2022 - £700).

|Unlisted securities|303,642|303,642|
|**Value as at 5 April**|714,414|754,722|



All investment assets are held in the UK. 

The unlisted investment is carried at the estimated value of the shares in Shepherd Building Group Ltd at the point of transfer into the Charity in 1977. The transfer value of the shares was £18 per share for the 16,869 shares transferred into the Charity. 

The Trustees believe that the current value of the shares held is in excess of the carrying value in the accounts and accordingly no impairment arises.
