REPORT OF THE TRusfEES
Risk Assessment- Principal RislLS and Uncertainties
The major risks to which the Foundation is exposed. as identified by the Trustees, are reviewed on an annual basis, and
systems have been established to tDathage those risks,. this process is overseen by the Risk and Audlr Sub-commltiee. The
Risk Register is reviewed and updated. discussed by rhe Finance, Investment and General Purposes Committee and
approved by the Trustees annually.
The Trustees have identified the following principal risks which are assessed as a signifirant threat to the Foundation:
Reputational risk
Transparency of Strategy in Annual Review and via
website.
Ongoing dialogue wlth srakeholders.
Inadequate financial controls
Structured committee over5ighL
Management processes in place.

External investment advice and management
Diversiry. prudence and liquidiry criterfia.
Regular performance monitoring.
IT systems are inadequate and / or not robust
Use of service and support contracts.
Security and authorisation procedures.
Ongoing monitoring ofoperating environment
Accordingly, the Foundation has established prudent investmentand spending pollcles. Most of its general Incorne is derived
from its listed investment portfollo, property portfolio, cash held or as a donation from The Clothworkers, Company, rhe
latter beSng ultimately derived from listed and property investments, Subjert to reserve requirements, the Foundation's
policy is to spend all available income, plus any additional amounts that may be transferred from expendable endowrnent
fund5, when considered appropriare.
The Foundation has received a significantannual donation from The Clothworkers, Company forTnanyyear5.Although there
is no absolute assurance that these donations will contirlue, the Company has confirmed its intention to carry on providing
such support, and it is experted that the Company would inform the Foundation in the event of a change in its poliry.
The Trustees consider that, since the nature of the Foundation's grantmaking activity involves very little by way of
un-accrued future commitments, it is unlikely that any unplanned reduction in funds available for grants would have an
impart on beneficiaries to whom commitments have already been Trade. Furthermore, the maintenance of general reserves
allows commitments to be fulfilled in a timely fashion.
Connected Charldes and Restricted Fund5
Until 2013. The Clothworkers, Foundation was the corporate trustee of three Trusts.. The Clothworkers, Chariry for
Education, The Clothworker5' Charity for Relief in Need and The Clothworkers, Charity for Welfare of the Blind. and of The
Clothworkers, Foundation Common Investment Fund (the CFCIF). In that year, with the agreetnent of the Charity
Commission. the assets of the three Trusts were transferred to the Foundation, to be held as restricted funds of the
Foundation going forward, and the CFCIF was liquidated.
The Trustees continue to apply the income and assets contained within the three restricted funds in accordance with the
trust deeds of the three liquidated Trusts.
Further information about the transfer and the restricted funds is contained within notes l(k) and 17.

risk
The assers of the Foundation (incorporating those of the three liquidated Trusts) are allocated in accordance with the results
ofan investment strategy review, conducted in 2016, and implemented in 2017. A further review was undertsken in 2022,
however with significant cash inflow5 as a result of donations from The Clothworker5' Company in 2022 and 2023, as well
as additional listed investment units donated in 2022. the review was reviewed and revalidated in 2024. The
Implementation of the revised strategy began in 2024 and continues in 2025. The adopted asset allocation seeks to achieve
diversifitation and hence enhance risk control. and encompa55es UK equitie5, overseas equities, emerging market equitles
and fixed interest The one dirert property holding ha5 now been enhanced by the two leasehold interests donated by The
Clothworkers, Company in December 2022. The equities allocation is managed in conjunction with our investment manager
and held in the form of unitised investments.
The prlmary strategic long-term investment objective is the requ1￿ment that the overall investment portfolio should
perform in accordance with the policy benchrnark which is made up of a blend of relevant indices. In addition, there is a
secondary objective that the portfolio should maintain its value in real terms over tlme. as measured by the Consumer Price
Index including housing costs [CPIH) and Retail Price Index [RPI).
The Foundation uses the income arising from the portfolio in furtherance of its charitable objertives, and of those of its
restrltted funds. It also considers the capital return earned on its portfolio. and any further endowment donations received.
and is prepared to utilise some of its expendable endowment to support current grantmakin& ifit is considered appropriate

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
Funds and Reserves Policy (continued)
Social Investment Fund.. this fund totals £2.91 {2023.. £1.75 million). and was established during 2017, following
the receipt of an initial donation from The Clothworkers. Company, which was subject to a restriction that it be used
for social iftvesttnent.. the CoTnpaTry made a further donation during 2018, and these fvnds were subsequently
committed or allocated. In 2021, the Trustees agreed a transfer of £1 million from the Expendable Endowment Fund
to the Social Investment Fund. which has now been committed in full. In November 2022. the Trustees agreed for
£5 million to be allocated from the Expendable Endowment Fund for further social investments, to be transferred
in line with commirments.
Other restricted funds.. there are three further restricted funds. totalling £61.02 million [2023.. £55.03 million),
which represent the capital of three Trust funds transferred to the Foundation in 2013 (see abovel. The income
arising on these three funds is used to fund grants which correspond with the objects of the three Trust funds,.
however, the capital is currently retained to act as an endowment. An appropriate proportion of the costs of
generating income is charged to these funds as well as a proportion of gains and losse5 on investments.
Unrestrlcted Funds
Designated Capital Fund.. this fund totals £1 10.94 million12023.. £99.89 million) and was established in 1996 to
represent rhe capital of the Foundation at that titne, and to act as a fund to generate income for the benefIt of future
beneficiaries. Although the Fund 15 not restricted, it 15 the Trustees. intention to maintain it over the long term in
order to generate resources for future beneficiaries. However. the income arising from the invested capital is to be
used for general purposes and i5. thereFore, included in the General Fund. An appropriate proportion of the costs of
generating income is charged to this fund as well as a proportion of gains and losses on investments.
Clothworker Members. Fund.. thL5 Fund was established in 2005 as the 'Livery Fund., to receive donations from
members of the Livery of The Clothworkers, Company, matched by the CoTnpany' it has been renamed to reflect
that donations are encouraged from all members. All such donations [other than those credited to the Members,
Endowment Fund - see above) are used to fund grants to charities selecred by the Clorhworker Members, Fund
Committee of the Foundation. The balance at 31 December 2024 was nil (2023.. nil).
DesSgnated Proactlve Grants Fund (DPGF).. this fund was created in 2019. All commitments made under the
various proactive grants progrdmmes are charged to the fund. Each year, a fixed amount of income is transferred
from the General Fund (see below), the amount being set ata level which represents the expected long-term average
annual commitment to proactive grants. Con5eouently. over the long-terTn, it l5 expected that total income credited
to the DPGF will be equal to total commitments. However, in years when cumulative commitments exceed
cumulative income, the resulting negative Fund balance is offset by a short-term loan Irom the Expendable
Endowment Fund. In 2024, the Trustee5 agreed a transfer of EO.9 million from the General Fund and grants
amounting to £1.2 million were committed. A loan of £0.69 million was made from the Expendable Endowment
Fund to leave the balance at 31 December 2024 as nil [2023.. nil).
General Fund.. this fund is credited with all income arising, excepting amounts credited to the Clothworker
Members, Fund. or restricted funds, as set out above. It is the intention of the Trustee5 to distribute all such income
each year, subject only io the agreed general reserves policy, as described below.
General Reserves Policy.. during 2022, the Trustees reviewed the level of the General Fund. The previous policy
was for the balance on the Fund to be set at the level of 15% (+1- 2%] of anticipated (General Fund) income for the
year. After due consideration, the Trustees decided that it was appropriate to set the size ol the General Fund at
7.5% 1+ /- 2.5%) of grant commitments, in order to allow the Foundation to fulfil its commitments in a timely
fashion.
At 31 December 2024. the balance on the General Fund totalled E2.02 million which was equivalent to 18.7% of
total grants commitments in the year (2023.. £1.05 million 11.8%).
The Trustees are aware that the balance on the General Fund exceeds the agreed policy, primarily as a result of
additional donations received from The Clothworkers. Company at the year end. The Trustees antlcipate that the
additional donations will be utili5ed for grantmaking in 2025, therefore bringing the level of the Fund within the
agreed policy.

Responsibilities of trustees for the finan¢ial ststetnents
As explained more fully in the Tru5tees' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 8. the trustees {who are also directors of
the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statemetlts
and for being satisfied thatthey 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 Irorn tnaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial staternent5, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company'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 liquldate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative
to do so.
Audltorfs responslbllltles for the audlt of the flnanclal statements
We have been appointed as auditors under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under
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
ssurance 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 misstaternent when it exists. Misstaternents 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 instance5 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
speciflc procedures for thls engagetnent and the extentto which these are capable of detecting irregularities, Includlng fraud
re detailed below.
Identifylng and assesslng risks related to irregularities..
We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable companjes Financial statements to material misstatement and how fraud
might occur, including through discussions with the trustees, di5cussion5 Within ouraudit team planning meeting, updating
our record of Internal controls and ensuring these controls operated as intended. We evaluated possible incentive5 and
opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements. We identified laws and regulations that are of
significance in the context of the charitable company by d15CU5sions with trustees and updating our understanding of the
sector ID which the charitable company operates.
Laws and regulations of direct Sl8nifJcance in the context of the charitable company include The Companies Act 2006. and
guidance issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
Audit response to risks identified..
We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related
rinancial statement items including a review of financial statement disclosures. We reviewed the charitable compan￿$
records of brea¢he5 of laws and regulations, rninutes of meetings and correspondence wlth relevant authorities to identify
potential material misstatements arising. We discussed the charirable company's pollcies and procedures for compliance
wlth laws and regulatlons wlth members of management responsible for compliance.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS, REPORT TO THE SOLE MEMBER (continued)
During the planning meeting with the audit team, the engagement partner drew attention to the key areas which might
involve non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud. We enquired of management whether they were aware of any
instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation5 or knowledge ofanyactual, suspected oralleged fraud. Weaddressed
the risk of fraud through management override of controls by testing the appropriateness ofjournal entries and identifying
any significant transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course OF business. We assessed whether judgements
made in making accounting eshmates gave rise to a possible indication of management bias. At the completion stage ol the
audit. the engagement partner's review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate
professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and Iraud.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedure5 described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws
and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. the less likely we would become
aware of it. Also, the risk of not delecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one
resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by. for example, forgery or intentional
Tnisrepresentaknons, or through ¢ollusion.
A fijrther descripiion of our responsibilitie5 is available on the Finathcial Reportlng Council's website at..

deducted to arrive at a net value.)
The valuation of the Foundation's investment portfolio is inherently subjertive. It Is based on a

tenancy details for the properties, prevailing marketyields and comparable market tratlsactions. As

15. UNRESTRICTED FUNDS (contlnued)
Clothworker Members, Fund
This fund was established in 2005 as the Livery Fund, to receive donations from member5 of the
Livery of The Clothworkers. Company, matched by the Company. It was renamed as the
Clothworkers, Charlty Fund {CCF) in Z019. and more recently, the Clothworker Members, Fund
[CMF) in 2022, to reflect that donations are encouraged from all members.
The fund is also credited with all income derived from the Members. Endowtnent Fund.
The income of the Fund is distributed annually.. grants are recommended by the Clothworker
Members, Fund Committee, taking into account preferences expressed by the donors regarding the
selected beneficiary charities of the year.
Deslgnated Capltal Fund
This fund was established in 1996 to represent the capital of the Foundation at that time, aTJd was
set aside out of unrestricted funds for the purpose of providing for the furtherance of the charitable
aims of the Foundation. The fund represented the disposal proceeds arising from the sale of a
leasehold property investtnent in 1994. together wlth the amounts previously retained in
recognition of the depreciation of the lease. Although the fund i5 not restricted, it is the Trustees,
intention to m32ntsin it over the long terni in order to generate resources for future beneficiaries.
However, the income arising from the invested capital is to be used for general purposes and is,
therefore, included in the General Fund. An appropriate proportion of the costs of generating income
is charged to this fund as well as a proportion of gains and losses on investments.
Deslgnated Proactive Grants Fund
This fund was established in 2019. All commitments made under the various proactive grants
programmes are debited to the fund. Each year, a fixed amount of income is transferred from the
General Fund, the amount being set at a level which represents the experted average annual
commitment to proactive grants over a strategy period. Consequently, over the long-term, it is
expected that ttstal income credited to the fund will be equal to total commitments. However. inyears
when cumulative commitments exceed cumulative income. the resulting negative Fund balance is
offset by a short-term loan from the Expendable Endowment Fund.
