THE SCHMIDT-BODNER CHARITABLE TRUST

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 5 April 2022

The Trustees present their report along with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2022. The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 7 and comply with the charity’s trust deed and applicable law.

Structure, Governance and Management

The Schmidt-Bodner Charitable Trust is constituted under a Trust Deed dated 1 July 1981 created by the settlor, Benno Schmidt-Bodner. It is a registered charity number 283014.

The Trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are set out on page 1. When there is a requirement for new Trustees, these would be identified and appointed by the remaining Trustees.

At the Annual Trustees' meeting, the Trustees agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Trust, including consideration of grant making, investment, reserves and risk management policies and performance.

Risk management

The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that such risks are continuously monitored and that appropriate steps can be taken to lessen these risks.

Objectives and Activities

The objects of the charity are to apply the income and capital of the trust for charitable purposes as the Trustees shall in their absolute discretion determine.

Grant making policy

All applications received are considered by the Trustees on their own merit for suitability of funding.

Public benefit

In meeting the objectives the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and judge that all donations made meet this guidance. All donations are listed in note 5 on page 8.

Achievements and Performance

The Trustees have continued to apply their funds in accordance with the objectives of the Trust and their grant making policy. Donations totalling £88,000 have been made in the year (2021: £96,300) and are detailed in note 5 of these financial statements.

Financial Review

The market value of the investment portfolio at 5 April 2022 was £2,040,330 (2021: £1,918,105).

Reserves policy

The Trustees’ policy is to maintain their continuing level of support under the grant making policy that they have agreed. If income resources are insufficient to cover the grants then recourse is made to the other funds of the Trust. The Trustees do not consider that any minimum level of resources is required.

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’).

We have completed our examination. We confirm that no material matters have come to our attention in connection with the examination giving us cause to believe that in any material respect:

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

  3. 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.

We 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.
