## **THE THOMAS SIVEWRIGHT CATTO CHARITABLE SETTLEMENT**
## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2023**
The Trustees present their Report with the financial statements of the Charitable Settlement for the year ended 5 April 2023. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 (FRS 102) (Update bulletin 2).
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and aims**
As stated in 'Structure, Governance and Management', the trust fund is to be held to pay the income and so much of the capital as the Trustees think fit to such charities and for such charitable purposes as they in their absolute discretion determine. The Charitable Settlement does not actively fundraise.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the information contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charitable Settlement's objectives and activities, their grant making policy and plans for future periods.
The Trustees believe that through making donations to a wide variety of UK-based charitable institutions, they are delivering a public benefit.
## **Grantmaking**
The Charitable Settlement invites applications for funding of projects from UK-based registered charities. The Trustees also invite suggestions for charitable funding from other members of the First Baron Catto of Cairncatto's family. Each application is considered by the Trustees and taken on its own merit. At present there are no annual commitments. Donations are considered and made on a quarterly basis.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Investment policy and objectives**
The funds of the Charitable Settlement are made up of 2,733,940 (2022 - 2,733,940) shares in Synthomer plc, 1,242,966 (2022 - 1,242,966) shares in the Edentree Balanced Fund for Charities and 75,381 (2022 - 75,381) shares in COIF Charities Ethical Investment Incorporation. Trustees do not expect to receive any dividend income from Synthomer plc in the year ended 31 December 2023. The company has experienced difficult trading conditions in 2023 and its share price fell by 79.33% from 5 April 2023 to 14 December 2023. However, following a capital reorganisation and rights issue in September 2023 Synthomer plc has confirmed its intention to recommence dividend payments as soon as circumstances permit. The scope for the Trustees to make donations is dependent on the dividend policy of Synthomer plc, although the reserves held by the Charitable Settlement will allow the Trustees to maintain the level of donations in the interim.
The total income in the year to 5 April 2023 was £670,444 ( 2022 - £545,033) and comprised £657,691 in dividends and £12,753 in interest received.
The Charitable Settlement made donations totalling £373,212 in the year ended 5 April 2023 ( 2022 - £363,900).
## **Reserves policy**
The Charitable Settlement maintains reserves in its CAF Bank Accounts to provide sufficient funds to meet administration and support costs and to cover ongoing and exceptional donations which may arise from time to time.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
The Trustees believe that the number and extent of their grants produce a significant public benefit. They, therefore, propose to manage the Charitable Settlement's funds so as to enable it to continue with its present objectives to provide grant support annually amounting to a similar proportion of total funds as hitherto so that many and varied charitable institutions may continue to benefit from its financial support in future years.

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing Document**
The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement is an unincorporated Charitable Settlement constituted under a trust deed dated 26 October 1979 and is a registered charity, number 279549.
The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement was established by The Hon Isabel Ida Gordon Catto, The Hon Mrs Ruth Gordon Bennett and Stephen Gordon Catto, Second Baron Catto of Cairncatto (the Settlors), the surviving children of The Right Hon Thomas Sivewright Catto, First Baron Catto of Cairncatto, to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of his birth on 15 March 1879.
The Charitable Settlement was established by gifts from the Settlors, the funds of which they placed under their joint control in their joint capacity as Trustees. The Trustees have the same full and unrestricted power of investing the funds of the Charitable Settlement in all respects as if they were absolutely entitled thereto beneficially.
The trust fund is to be held to pay the income and so much of the capital as the Trustees think fit to such charities and for such charitable purposes as they in their absolute discretion determine.
Trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are set out below. Surviving Trustees have the power to appoint new Trustees. There is no minimum or maximum number of Trustees or re-appointment period specified in the trust deed.
The Trustees meet quarterly to consider applications received for funding. The day to day administration of the processing and handling of applications, and payments of the donations once agreed by the Trustees, is delegated to a Trust Administrator.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES**
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees 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, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed 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, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgments 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;
- 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 which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (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.

## **Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement (the 'Charity') for the year ended 5 April 2023, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
## In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity's affairs as at 5 April 2023, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
Page 4
## **Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement**
- the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees' report; or
- the Charity has not kept adequate accounting records; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
## **Responsibilities of Trustees**
As explained more fully in the Trustees' responsibilities statement (set out on page 5), the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they 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 from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity'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 liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of 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 assurance 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 misstatement when it exists. Misstatements 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 instances 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 specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Charity's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Trustees.
Page 5
## **Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of The Thomas Sivewright Catto Charitable Settlement**
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Charity to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation (ie. gives a true and fair view).
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **THE THOMAS SIVEWRIGHT CATTO CHARITABLE SETTLEMENT**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the Charitable Settlement, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 (FRS 102) (Update bulletin 2)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
The Charitable Settlement has applied Update Bulletin 2 as published on 5 October 2018 and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds it is applying FRS102 Section 1A.
## **Income**
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the Charitable Settlement has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.
## **Expenditure**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charitable Settlement to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
## **Taxation**
The Charitable Settlement is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the Trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the Charitable Settlement. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Investments**
Investments are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and opening fair value (purchase date if later). Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and the opening market value (or purchase date if later). Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities.
## **Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the year ended 5 April 2023**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **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 of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **Creditors and provisions**
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the Charitable Settlement 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
## **Financial instruments**
The Charitable Settlement only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
