The Trustees rnet twice during the year to make grants, and the Chair met regularly with the Lead

governance and informed decision making.
The Trustees are familiar with the requirements and duties set out in the Charities (Protection and
Social Investment) Act 2016. The Trust's income is generated from investments, for which Trustees set
specific policies Isee below). As the Trust does not undertake fundraising from the public or

Grant-maklng Approach
During this financial year. The Trust awarded 28 grants totalling £811,025.
More detailed information about its grant-makinE Strategy and grant awards can be found on The Alan
& Babette Sainsbu
Charitable Fund website.
The Trust strives to prattice relational, transparent, and equitable grant making. To achieve this, the
team works alongside grantees, acknowledging their expertise and welcoming their insi8ht5 to inform
its practice.

THE ALAN AND BABEThE SAINSBURY CHARITABLE FUND
5Apri12024
Increasingly, the Trust's grants are for core costs or ftexible use, knowing that grantee-partners are
best placed to decide how to deploy resources to achieve their aims and for the communities they
serve. In this financial year, 62% of grants were unrestricted or for core funding.
The charity supports an evidence based and joined up approach to grant-making and to this end now
publishes all its grant-making using the 360Giving Data Standard. for use by other donors and potential
grantees.
The Fund does not have an application form. Instead, it proactively researches and identifies groups
for funding that align with its priorities- often "by and fort groups who have few resources to employ
professional fundraisers.
Durlng the year the Trustees considered proposals under the following categories:
Refugee and Asylum Seekers
Intercommunity Dialogue
International
Disadvanta8ed young people in Southwark
General
Charities and Public Benefit
Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on Charity and Public Benefit and confimi
that they have complied with the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to
it. They consider the full information which follows in this annual report, about the Trust's aims,
activities, and achievements in the many areas of interest that the Trust supports demonstrates the
benefit to its beneficiaries, and through them to the public, that arise from those activities.
Reserves Policy and Going Concem
It is the Trustees. policy to approve grants for payment over a period of year5, subject to certain
conditions over the life of the grant. Those experted to be paid within twelve months of the year-end
are accrued in the accounts, whilst those grants due to be paid after this date are not accrued. The
latter are referred to in note 4 to the accounts and amount to £112,02512023: £nill. They represent
funds earmarked for continued support to certain existing grantee•artners where formal
commitments have been made but the conditlons had not yet been met at the balance sheet date.
Cash flow projettions for income and expenditure are regularly reviewed to ensure that the level of
available reserves 15 adequate and that the Trust can meet all its commitments.
The Trustees consider that. when possible, it Is appropriate to hold funds, both to meet the short-term
working capital needs of the Trust and in anticipation of the potential payment of subsequent grant
instalments. In the unlikely event that the Trustees find themselves unable to meet current
commitments from the future income, they would be willing to draw on expendable endowment to
meet those commitments. As at 5 April 2024. the Trust held total funds of £18,329,43112023..
£17,213,163) including expendable endowment funds of £18,081,91512023- £16,965,647).
The trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties that would prevent the financial statements
from being prepared on a going concern basis.

THE ALAN AND BABErrE SAINSBURY CHARITABLE FUND

Investment Policy
Trustees meet with thelr investment managers twice a year to discuss investment strategy and to seek
to ensure that the Trust'5 income requirements are met, and that long term capital growth is in line
with relevant indices. The Trustees normally hold investments for the long term. The endowment
assets of the Trust remain slgnificant. and the Trust will continue to pay out to Its grantee partners in
accordance with the Trust's objects.
During this year, the Trust has adopted a total return basis to budget for its annual expenditure, which
provides grantees with stable funding regardless of fluctuation in investment income. This meant that
though the capital value increased from £17.213,163 at 5 April 2023 to £18,329,431 at S April 2024 lan
Increase of 6.5%), the net unrestricted income of the Trust for the year after charging support costs
was £311,476, a decrease of £94,154 on the previovs yearfs figure of £405,630. Trustees wlll contlnue
to review this approach.
Trustees regularly review investments of the Fund's endowment against environmental, social and
governance criteria. The Alan and Babette Sainsbury Charitable Fund has no segregated investment5
In oil and gas and exposure to these areas in co-mingled funds will never exceed 5% of total
investments, but we aim for less than 1%.
For the period 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024 the portfolio galned +10.0%, compared to 3 gain of
+9.8% ofthe Composite Benchmark 75% MSCI AC World ex Oil & Minin& IO% FTA Gilts, 15% CPI
+3% and the galn of +5.6% for ARC Steady Growth Index.
Risk A55e55ment
The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business. and operational risks to which the Trust
may be exposed. Through the joint office of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, adequate
systems are in place to meet such potential risks as the Trustees have identified, such as maintaining
and reviewing an operational risk register on a quarterly basis.
The Trustees identlfied the uncertainty of financial returns to constitute the Trust's main financial risk.
This is mitigated by having a diversified financial portfolio under the management of a major
investment house. The Trustees regularly review the investment5 Strategy and monitor financial
performance.
Trustees review risk on each application for fundlng, Including the financial health and govemance of
appllcant organisations. Trustees are increasingly committed to supporting groups that are overlooked
by donors, which may include unregistered charities. Trustee5 ensure that appropriate due diligence
checks are carried out by the Executive team before releasing funds. Risk mitigation approaches may
include funding an intermediary charity to hold funds on behalf of an unregistered group.
Future Plans
The current Chair, in conjunction with the board, Executive and wider civil society, continues to
review the Tnjst's priorities to be relevant and to make an impact, particularly in the wake of
widening inequalities and global crises.

that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but Is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Mi55tatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered materlal if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
IrregularÉties, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, Outlined above, to detect material misstatements in
respect of irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of deteciing
Irregularities, including fraud are set out below.
Capablllty of the audit in detecting irregularltles
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud
and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedure5 included the following:
We enquired of management ond the board of trustees, whlch Included obtaining and reviewing
supporting documentation, concerning the charitls policie5 and procedures relating to:
Identifying. evaluatin& and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were
aware of any instances of non-compliance.
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any
actual, suspected, or alleged fraud,.
The internal controls established to mltlgate rlsks related to fraud or non-compllance wlth
laws and regulations.
We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with sovernance.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates
in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statement5
or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and
sector experience.
We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remalned alert
to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We reviewed any reports made to regulators.
We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation
to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relatlonships that
may indicate risks of material mi55tatement due to fraud.
In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the
appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements
made in making accounting estimates are Indicative of a potential bias and tested significant
transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,
including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance
with regulation. This rlsk Increase5 the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed
from the event5 and transartions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to
become aware of instances of non-compllance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities
occurring due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves Intentional concealment, forgery,
collusion, omi55ion. or misrepresentation.

Notes to the Accounts
2. Accounting Policles Icontlnued)
c) Expenditure on tharitable artivities
Expenditure is recognised once there Is a legal or construrtive obligation to make a payment
to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the
obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity
headings.
Costs of generating funds represent amounts paid to the Trust's external investment advisors.
Charitable activities expenditvre comprises Erants and donations awarded by the Trustees in
accordance with the criteria set out in the Trust Deed. together with grant related support
costs.
Grants payable are made to third parties in furtherance of the charity's objects. Single or
multi-year grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation
that they will receive a grant and the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition.
or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and that any
condition attaching to the Erant Is outside of the control of the charlty.
The view of the trustees is that any instalments payable within 12 months of the reporting
date are expected to be pald regardless of the status of attached condltions and so these are
accrued. Any payments due in more than 12 months from the reporting date, where
cor¢ditions exist that have not been met at the reporting date, are not accrued but are
reported as an unaccrued future commitment (see note 41.
Grant related support costs represent staff, office and governance costs incurred in managing
the grant award programme. They Include a share of the staff and office costs of the joint
offices of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, which are allocated in proportion to the time
spent on Trust matters and grants paid.
C05t5 include a share of the staff and office costs of the joint offi￿5 of the Sainsbury Family
Charitable Trusts, which are allocated in proportion to the time spent on Trust matters and
grants paid.

transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date

el Depreclatlon

the work was completed. The following rates have been used:
Leasehold improvements- 7 year straight
Financial Instruments
The charity has financial assets and financial liabilitie5 of a kind that qualify as basic financlal
instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and
subsequently measured at their settlement value.
At the balance sheet date, the charity held finandal assets at falr value of £18,089.81712023..
£15,924,313).
Cash and cash equlvalents
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investment5 Wlth a
short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit
or slmllar account.
h) Critieal accounting judgements and key sources of estlmation uncertainty
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, which are described above. Trustees are
required to make judgements, estimatès, a5sumption5 about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying
assumptions are based on historical experience and other factor5 that are considered to be
relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to
accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the
revision affects only that period. or in the perlod of the revision and future periods if the
revision affect5 the current and future periods.
In the view of the Trustees, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty
affecting assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material
adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year.
