SSIE was a monastic and missionary ¢ommynity where work was undertaken in parishes and mi55ional contexts in both Great Britsin and overseas, most notably in Southern Africa, West Indies, India and Japan.

FELLOWSHIP OF ST JOHN (UK) TRUST ASSOCIATION DIREcfoRS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 AN OVERVIEW OF THE WORK OF THE TRUST IN 2025 The Directois met four times during the year as a board, to discharge bus1rsS, award grants and set the direction for the charity. In February 2025. wè met at Whalley Abbey for our annual residèntial and io undèrtakè visit5 to projects in the North West. We were joined by local visitors on the first nht of the residential and by representatives of Save Thè Parish, a group advotsting for 8rÈatèr support to thè ILKal church in the Church of England, on the second night. The re=idential had more time freed up this year. Thi= I:.3: becau the Directors had previourly resolved and have implemented a new system for setting the budget in Novembef 2024- based Oft 4% ofioial a55et5 as they Stand at the end of September. Freed from hang to agree a budget at the residential (partly retrospectively as the year has already begynl, this change gives the board more time to consider things in the round. We took lime to Study, in 50rne depth, the suggestion from the Finance Committee, thai we build in equity index tracker5 to the portfolio. Thi5 suggestion was adopted later in the year. This was the significant aspert of the board's work in 2025. 1 would like to take this opportunity to thank Fr Stephen Anderson and Davbd Ballance along other members of the finance ¢ommlttee for this. We hope that this will lead to 8reater returns in the futurt. The AGM took place in August in the beautiful surroundings of the Bar Convent in York. We were delighted to be able to have a Mass with Fr Nicholas Stebbing Cl Company Member, preaching for us. Thè board is committd tg rnakin¥ the AGM more than just reporting and thus it seerned appropriate to have the business in the context of a gatherin8 for Mass and good fellowship. It was noted that 2026 is %gnificant year for the Fellowship, as it is 160 year5 since the foundation of 5SJE. Plans were announced for a SnIfiCant ¢elebr41ion in Oxford on 4" July 2026. In November 2025, a new budget was set, which was slightty higher than the 2025 budget, but still in line with our 4% commitment. We believe that this approach will help us to maintain the worth of our assets and enable usto ¢ontinue to support the ¢hur¢h. wilh real v•lue into the fvture. Our full list of beneficiarie5 15 given in note 6. We have been greatly encouraged by the dNerse nature and quallty of application5 received. In 2025 we were able to 5UPPOrt over Irj) Projects and individuals with grants. Some interesting theme5 for the year include.. l. Support for w)uni people. There have been se¥ral grants awarded to support the nurture and educate young people in the faith, not just in the UK but abroad as well. From the School support in India, to assistance to groups travellin6 to the Wa15ingham Youth Pilgfirnage, to the Tariro Project in Zirnbabwe. to children, families and youth worker5 in the UK.

We have increased these grants from £350 to £SLMI per individual. There have been three international trips Mth Revd Canon Naylor visiting projects in Zimbabwe and Fr Card-Reynolds in South Africa. The purpose of these visits is to further build relationships with our mission partners and to carry out due diligence, in understanding the nature of their work and governantt.

FINANCIAL REVIEW The rèsult for thè year is disclosed in the Statement of Financial Actmties on page 11. This indicates a net increase in unrestrided funds of £67.016.12024 increase.. £478.6201. On the 24 December 2024. the net assets of St George's Trust, Sisterhood of ihe Holy Childhood and thè Society of St John the Evangelist were merged with thè Fèllowship of St john IUKI Trust and these fund5 are treated as restricted funds. Thè movement In rÈstrirted funds is dixlosed in note 13. DJring the course of the year, grants totallin8 £321,861 were awarded as per note 6. The purpose of the Trusfs reseMs poll¢y is to ensure that it is able to meet its obligations and finance Its planned fut¢Jre activities. As at 31 December 2025, the FSJE hold5 totsl re5erve5 of about £12.8m. The Directors acknowledge that thè FSJE'S reserves are highef than the minimum required for short-term operational security. The current level is considered appropriate for the following reason5'. FSJE is 501ely è Brant 8iwnB charity, which is reliant on its financial reserves to generate the retum to pay grant commitments. attend to governance and deal vmth administration. Risk management.. Reserves prode proteclion against unfO$ten events, induding econorni¢ uncertainty, regulatory changè. or unexpectèd cost increases. The Directors are satisfied that hohling reserves at this level is prudent and ¢on5i5tent with their fiduciary duties. The investment managers are t4sked to achie a return of CPl+4% over • five to seven year period. An annual budget of about £5(KJk, being 4% of overall,. a55et51S set, with the intention that about 7 is devoted togrant giving. Reseives of E12.5m- £13ffl in reol temis are needed therefore, to achieve this outcorne. If reserves are significantly reduced. then this will prejudi the future level of the annual budget and hence the fulfilrnent of the charitable ¢bit¢ts. Inièrgenèrètional fairness requires the annual budget to be maintalned •t current levels. REVIEW OF INVESTMENT ACTIVITY The Dlrectors have set the Investment managers a target of producing total returns that a¢hleved CPI +4% over the long term. It is a demanding target because, if inllation runs at say 5%, then norninal investment returns will need to achieve 9% to reach this outcome. This measurement has been lurther refined by ihe •doption of a se¢ond•ry objective iOrporatin0 a composite index made up of 75% MSCI ACWI in sterling and 25% Global Government Bonds in sterting, as the ba5 of the performance comparison. This new perfomance objective. sel for all three managers now. more directly measures the value to be added by dls¢retionary portfolio management over and abovè thè comparator of passive index Ira¢kln8 funds. The dirertors wish to see a ju5tifi¢ation for the in¥estment feès beire paid. There We quarterty meetlngs wlth eath manager, to review performance and individual stock Selectn5. R•thbones In 2025. thè Rathbone Cort Investmènt Fund for Charitie& returned +4%. until the datè of dosurè on the 24 December 2025. Sarasln The Sara5in portfolio delivered a total return of +5.5% net of fees ovèr the year to 31 Dernber 2025, compared with the Trust's objective of CPI +4%. which equated to +7.4% over the period. Perfomiance was supported by strong returns from altèrnatives. particularly gold. while both fixed income and equities made positive contributions in absolute terrn5.

Towards the end of the year. the Rathbones and Mtlnroy & Wood porttolios were liquidated because the Dirertors were not satisfied with thè performance and a decision wa5 madè to place the SA of the cash into a tracker fund with Sarasin and 5CPA into the Sarasin managed portfolio. The new portfolio retsin5 the Trust's CPI +4% return objective but gains its equity exposure through passi index funds rather than active managers. This change was intended to reducè thè risk of further active equrty mana8er underperform•nce while also improving administrative efficiency and sirnplifying portfolio oversi8hL FINANaAL POLIC The Total Return Ac¢ountln8 pollcy adopted by the Trust formanyyears hasensured that grants have been maintained at pre•eMSstlng levels and we hope ai least to ¢Mtinut tha( in future. The Director5 are looklni to restore the Unapplied Total Return element of the insestment portfolio, which while increasing in nominal terms durin8 2024, when adjusted f recent inflation, has in Teal terms fallen about 25% below the startsng level seen in 2015, when iwo investment m•nagers were appointed to man•8e the portfolio. For the fkbture. it is hoped that incremental increases will be possible in the quantum of funds available to support the PTov15ion of grants bul that is dependent on markets and the performance of the investment managers.
