TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023

the level of income reserves required at their meetings
held four times a year.
RISKS
The charity is exposed to fluctuations in the stock
market. In selecting investments, the trustees follow
advice given by Rathbones (Incorporating Investec
Wealth & Investment), subject to their scrutiny of each
quarterly report.
ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The Charity is presently managed by 6 trustees. The
clerk to the trustees is responsible for the day-to-day
running of the Charity and reports to the trustees at
each of 4 meetings held in the financial year.
The trustees applied to have the scheme altered so
that the minimum number of trustees at any one time
can be five and the maximum eight. The paperwork to
achieve this was executed and an online submission
was made to the Charity Commission on 05.06.2014.
APPOINTMENT OF
TRUSTEES
Trustees are chosen by personal knowledge of the
current trustees from among members or former
members of the Scout Association. The continuing
trustees appoint the new trustee by resolution.
ANNUAL REPORT
The objects of the charity
The objects of the Charity are set out in the Scheme of 1994 as follows:
(a)
The income of the Endowment Fund and the income and property of the Expendable Fund
shall be applied in furthering the aims of the Scout Association within the London Boroughs
of Lambeth and Wandsworth.
(b)
The income of the Endowment Fund not required to be expended as aforesaid shall form
part of the Expendable Fund.
The objects of the Charity as mentioned above are intended to cover Public Benefit
as defined in the Charities Act 2011,
Summary of policies adopted in order to further the charity's objects
The trustees award grants to members of the Scout Association in the London Boroughs of
Lambeth and Wandsworth to enable them to attend Scout camps. Grants are also awarded to
improve facilities at Scout camps and halls for Scout meetings, and for training.

{iv)
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material
departures and explained in the financial statements.
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to
presume that the Charity will continue in operation.
(v)
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable
accuracy the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the
financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (accounts and reports)
Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding
the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of
fraud and
er irregularities.

THE ALEXANDER FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Pre
aration
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities
SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic
of Ireland (FRS 102).
The trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The trustees consider
that there are no material uncertainties about the trust's ability to continue as a going
concern.
Reconciliation with
revious Generall Acce
ted Accountin
Practice
In preparing the accounts the trustees have considered whether in applying the
accounting policies required by FRS102 and the Charities SORP FRS102 a restatement
of comparative items was needed. No restatement has been required.
Income Reco
nition
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable
that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured
reliably.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be
measured reliably by the charity, this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or
payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and
notification has been received of the dividend due. This is normally upon notification by
our investment advisor of the dividend yield of the inveslment portfolio.
Ex
enditure reco
nition
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 settlemenl will be
required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual's basis.
2. Investments
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their
transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet
date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes
the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
The trust does not acquire put options, derivatives, or other complex financial
instruments. The main form of financial risk faced by the charity is that of volatility in
equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic conditions, the attitude of
investors to
5- Iconlinuedl

investment risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities and within particular
sectors or sub sectors.
Realised
ains and losses
All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.
Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales
proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent
to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the
difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and
unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial
Activities
3. Grants Pa
able
The distributions are accounted for on the basis of actual payments made during the
accounting period.

THE ALEXANDER FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Pre
aration
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities
SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic
of Ireland (FRS 102).
The trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The trustees consider
that there are no material uncertainties about the trust's ability to continue as a going
concern.
Reconciliation with
revious Generall Acce
ted Accountin
Practice
In preparing the accounts the trustees have considered whether in applying the
accounting policies required by FRS102 and the Charities SORP FRS102 a restatement
of comparative items was needed. No restatement has been required.
Income Reco
nition
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable
that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured
reliably.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be
measured reliably by the charity, this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or
payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and
notification has been received of the dividend due. This is normally upon notification by
our investment advisor of the dividend yield of the inveslment portfolio.
Ex
enditure reco
nition
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 settlemenl will be
required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual's basis.
2. Investments
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their
transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet
date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes
the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
The trust does not acquire put options, derivatives, or other complex financial
instruments. The main form of financial risk faced by the charity is that of volatility in
equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic conditions, the attitude of
investors to
5- Iconlinuedl

investment risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities and within particular
sectors or sub sectors.
Realised
ains and losses
All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.
Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales
proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent
to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the
difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and
unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial
Activities
3. Grants Pa
able
The distributions are accounted for on the basis of actual payments made during the
accounting period.
