Thinley Rinchen Ling Trust
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. 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) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The Trust is a charity and exists to advance the Sakyapa School of Buddhism and in particular the spiritual authority of Karma Thinley Rinpoche and Lama Jampa Thaye as masters of the Sakyapa school of Buddhism and heads of the Thinley Rinchen Ling Association of Sakyapa centres.
Significant activities
The Trust held its annual summer course at its retreat and teaching centre in France (Sakya Changlochen Ling) which was attended by many people from the UK and elsewhere. (The Trust had not been able to run this course in 2020 and 2021 due to uncertainties caused by the Covid pandemic.)
Public benefit
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission Guidance on Public Benefit in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.
In exercising the powers of the Trust and pursuing the objects of the charity, public benefit is accomplished by:
-
Providing a temple for the study and practice of the Sakya Buddhist teachings.
-
Providing retreat facilities for practitioners interested in enhancing their study and practice of Buddhist teachings through periods of solitary meditation and contemplation.
-
Promoting and providing teachings on the basic principles of the Buddhist teachings.
-
Establishing and supporting groups across Europe in order to deliver the preceding provision.
-
Presenting Buddhist textual teachings by lamas (qualified Buddhist teachers) for practitioners and other beneficiaries interested in learning about the Buddha's teachings.
In assessing the public benefit of the Trust's aims, there has been no report or evidence of detriment or harm flowing from the Trust carrying out its aims. The intended beneficiaries of the Trust's aims include:
(i) Practitioners of Sakya Buddhism. Such beneficiaries are drawn from a cross section of society, from around the U.K., Europe and the Americas.
(ii) The wider public, who benefit from the Trust's activities by having opportunities to attend the temples and to learn about Buddhism and/or practise meditation.
In general terms, the Trust's activities achieve public benefit as a result of practitioners' lifestyles and practices being in accordance with the ethics and values of Buddhism, thereby enriching the moral and spiritual welfare of society. The Trustees are satisfied that any charges for services or requests for regular payments, are reasonable and take into consideration each beneficiary's ability to pay. All events provided by the Trust offer a concessionary rate.
Grantmaking
During the year the Trust did not make any grants.
Volunteers
The charity depends entirely on volunteers to carry out its activities. The Board of Trustees would like to take this opportunity to thank all its supporters.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Trust continues to own its retreat centre in France, Sakya Changlochen Ling, which continues to provide facilities for retreats and Buddhist teachings in accordance with its objectives.
Once again, after a two year hiatus caused by the ramifications of the Covid pandemic, the annual two-week retreat at Sakya Changlochen Ling was held there in the summer, attracting many people from the UK, Europe and the Americas to learn more about the deeper Buddhist teachings and to join in retreat together. The centre also continued to provide facilities for smaller group retreats and for individual retreats by people wanting to deepen there meditation practice.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
As reflected in the charity's balance sheet, the Trust's financial position continues to be stable and secure.
Principal funding sources
The charity's principal funding sources in respect of day to day activities continue to be regular donations and income from the provision of courses and retreats. In respect of major expenditures, such as the purchase or improvement of property, the charity has relied on appeals to members, supplemented by borrowings from financial institutions to cover any shortfall on appeal funds raised.
Reserves policy
As a matter of policy, the Trustees intend to hold the amount of unrestricted reserves held in cash and cash equivalents at the level of approximately 3 months' regular expenditure. The board considers the charity's exposure to the risk of any significant loss of income and to the risk of unforeseen expenditure, which cannot be mitigated by executive action, and on this basis will decide whether the amount of assets held as unrestricted cash reserves should be increased or decreased.
At the year end, the charity's available cash funds amounted to £59,121 (2021 - £40534), being the total of cash-at-bank and cash-in-hand, as stated on page 7. The Trustees believe that the unrestricted cash funds are sufficient to meet the charity's day to day requirements. Included in these funds is money designated for the construction of a stupa, amounting to £24,398 (2021:£24,309).
Going concern
In the opinion of the Trustees the charity continues to be a going concern.
FUTURE PLANS
The Trust plans to build a stupa in the grounds of Sakya Changlochen Ling and, towards this end, it has set aside funds from a legacy and from some substantial donations, received in previous yeas.. An appeal will be raised in due course to assist with the balance required for this project.
The Trust will continue to organize teachings and retreats at Sakya Changlochen Ling, with the next summer course planned for August 2023, during which it is expected to host a visit by His Holiness Sakya Gongma Trichen.. The courses originally planned for August 2020 and 2021 were cancelled as a result of the uncertainties arising from the Covid-19 pandemic.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The governing document is a trust deed dated 11th May 1981 as amended by an order of 15th June 2005, and by a scheme of 28th February 2006, as amended by a resolution dated 3rd October 2009.
Recruitment and appointment of new Trustees
The charity's Trustees and committee members are appointed by the Board of Trustees after due consideration being given to eligibility, personal competence, specialist skills and local availability.
Organisational structure
Overall control of the charity rests with the Board of Trustees. Day to day control of the charity's functions and finances are delegated to local administrators, appointed for their skills and competence.
Induction and training of new Trustees
New Trustees and committee members are inducted into the workings of the charity by the Board of Trustees.
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.
A formal review of the charity's risk management processes is undertaken on an annual basis.
The Trust maintains a comprehensive register of risks, which is subject to regular review. Through the risk management processes established for the trust, the trustees are satisfied that the major risks identified have been adequately mitigated where necessary. It is recognised that systems can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Thinley Rinchen Ling Trust
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Thinley Rinchen Ling Trust
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Thinley Rinchen Ling Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, 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) (effective 1 January 2019)', 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.
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 Accounting and Reporting by Charities Preparing their Accounts in Accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the 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 and are rounded to the nearest £.
The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Donations are recognised on receipt. Procedures are in place to ensure the completeness of income.
Catering income is accounted for on a cash received basis.
Legacies are accounted for once the charity is notified of its legal entitlement and the amount due.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity 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.
Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include finance and governance costs which support the Trust's Buddhist centre management activities
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
| Freehold property | - not provided |
|---|---|
| Religious articles & texts | - not provided |
| Fixtures and fittings | - 15% on reducing balance |
| Motor vehicles | - 25% on reducing balance |
The Trust's land and buildings are not depreciated as the Trustees consider they are well maintained and in good repair and any resulting depreciation would be immaterial.
Taxation
The charity 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 charity. 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.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.
Donated goods, services or facilities
Donated goods, services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of supporters is not recognised (refer to the Trustees' annual report for more information about their contribution).
Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
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 charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will normally 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.
Financial instruments
The trust 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.
