REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 30 September 2021

The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2021. This is a directors' report required by s417 of the Companies Act 2006 and all trustees are directors. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements and the requirements of the Memorandum & Articles of Association.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

Friends of Peterhouse is a non-profit making company limited by guarantee, without a share capital, and is registered as a charity with the Charity Commissioners. The objects of the company are the advancement of the educational and other charitable work of Peterhouse in the University of Cambridge.

Grantmaking

All grants are made at the discretion of the Council for the benefit of the College and its members. When allocating funds, the Council gives due weight to any suggestions made by the College as to appropriate subjects for assistance.

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's objectives and activities and in the planning of future activities. It is the judgement of the trustees that activities in pursuit of the above objectives fully meet the public benefit test, which they have kept in mind in planning programmes for the charity. In delivering services and in the appointment of trustees the charity operates a strict policy of no discrimination on any grounds.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

During the year the Council continued to receive support from the members of the Friends and from others associated with Peterhouse. The main grants during the year were £25,000 for student hardship and £45,500 towards the cost of a college counsellor and a mental health adviser.

Investment performance

The Charity's funds are managed by the Charity's Investment and Finance Committee which is chaired by Jenny Quan and also includes the Chairman, the Honorary Treasurer, Ashley Abraham and Christopher Duffett, the majority of whom have either had successful careers in Finance or are currently active in investment markets. The Charity invests in a combination of equity tracker funds reflecting global economic capital growth and other funds specifically designed for charities. Gains of £364,864 (2020: £86,449) were made during the year. Income received from investments amounted to £39,446 (2020: £35,916).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the Council to continue to build up the capital of the Charity for the longer term benefit of Peterhouse while also providing more immediate support for the current educational and other charitable activities of the College. As a general principle it is the policy to spend each year up to 4% of the accumulated general fund and up to 100% of general donations received.

The reserves at 30 September 2021 were £2,213,608 and £270,823 for the General and Medical Funds respectively (2020: £1,880,428 and £253,355 respectively).

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, the Memorandum and Articles of Association as adopted on 8 July 1995, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 30 September 2021

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The Articles of Association provide that the affairs of the charity are to be managed by its Council of Management, and that the members of the Council shall not be less than 8 or more than 16 in number.

The Articles also provide that members of the Council must be members of the Association, and shall be elected either by the members of the Association in General Meeting or by the Council. At each Annual General Meeting one third of the members of the Council are required to retire from office by rotation, but are eligible for re-election. The Council may appoint someone to be a member of the Council, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing membership, and anyone so appointed holds office only until the next Annual General Meeting, but is eligible for re-election.

Members of the Council are selected so as to ensure fair representation of its diverse membership and the availability to the Council of a range of skills most suited to achieving the efficient functioning of the Association's deliberations and affairs.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FRIENDS OF PETERHOUSE

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Friends of Peterhouse ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 September 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

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

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

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

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.
