THE WOGEN ANNIVERSARY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and "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
The Trustees hold the capital and income of the Trust upon trust to pay or apply the whole thereof to or towards or for the benefit or furtherance of such charitable purposes, charitable institutions or charitable foundations (or the Trustees thereof) as they, from time to time, decide.
The Trust makes grants to registered charities, organisations with charitable objects which are exempt from the requirement for charitable registration and other charitable causes.
There have been no changes in the policies adopted by the Trust during the year.
Achievements and performance
During the year, the Trust made various charitable donations amounting to £121,916 (2021: £109,167). It is the usual policy of the Trustees to make awards from the accumulated unrestricted fund only. Total expenditure in the year amounted to £122,186, an increase of £12,995 on the previous year.
Financial review
The net movement in funds in the year is shown on page 4.
Donations received in the year amounted to £100,000 (2021: £200,000).
The balance sheet on page 5 of the financial statements shows the financial position of the Trust as at 5 April 2022.
Total assets less liabilities amounted to £194,866, which is represented by the accumulated balances on capital and income funds. The net assets of the Trust are held in order to meet the Trust’s operating expenses, if any, and also to be applied towards the Trust’s charitable objectives.
The Trust has made no future commitments with regard to the funds held.
The Trustees wish to continue their support of selected causes and consequently reserves are maintained at a level commensurate with this requirement. The Trustees consider the current level of reserves held are adequate to achieve this.
The Trustees regularly review charitable grants made and are conscious of their need to distribute income and not maintain reserves in excess of the level set in the above policy.
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Trust is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Structure, governance and management
The Trust was established under a Deed of Settlement dated 12 January 1982 and is a registered charity No. 284299.

P.H. Watkins Esq. A.A. Williams Esq. D.A. Brousse Esq.

The Trustees have also examined other operational risks which they face and confirm they have established systems to mitigate any significant risks.
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Trust's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policy for the year.

TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE WOGEN ANNIVERSARY TRUST

1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements 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.

THE WOGEN ANNIVERSARY TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Wogen Anniversary Trust is a Charitable Trust established under a Deed of Settlement.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)". The Trust is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Trust has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements 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 the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Trust. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. However, the Trustees accept that the current economic climate will present challenges to the charity sector.
Notwithstanding this, the charity has sufficient financial and cash resources to help withstand the challenging period ahead. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
The unrestricted income fund consists of funds to be used for the purpose of the Trust’s charitable objectives at the discretion of its Trustees.
The capital endowment fund is attributable to the original amount settled on the charity and subsequent additions thereto. Under the terms of the Deed of Settlement, the endowment is expendable at the discretion of the Trustees on expenditure which meets the charitable objectives of the Trust.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the Trust is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Trust has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure is included on an accruals basis. Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient, such grants being recognised as expenditure.
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.
1.7 Financial instruments
The Trust has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Trust's balance sheet when the Trust becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
