## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## GOVERNORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 ## The Governors present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2025. 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 Foundation's Trust Deed sealed 17 October 1951, 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 object of the Charity is to grant scholarships or awards for the benefit of qualified students, whose parents are members of the Church of England, are in need of financial assistance and who are or have been for not less than two years bona fide residents of Chichester or Midhurst (preference being given to students resident in the City of Chichester or in the parishes of Harting or West Wittering), to assist in their education or training at Christ's Hospital, or any other school where religious instruction is given according to the doctrines of the Church of England, or at any university or other place of learning, or to enable them to prepare for, or assist their entry into, some profession, trade or calling, and for that purpose may provide them with outfits, clothing, tools, instruments or books. The Governors have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Foundation should undertake. ## Achievements and performance Three students were sponsored during the year with a total of £63,583 (2024 £70,508) being given in grants. The Foundation has continued to reinvest its remaining income in order to allow the pursuance of stated objectives as future suitable candidates become available. ## Financial review The Foundation's reserve policy is that all funds which have not been designated/restricted for a specific use (there are presently no such funds) should be maintained at a level equivalent to at least one year's expenditure. The governors consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. The reserves held at the balance sheet date are £2,273,446 (2024 - £2,237,774). The Foundation's investment policy is to provide a balanced return between capital and income with a minimum risk profile. The Governors have assessed the major risks to which the Foundation is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure thereto. ## Structure, governance and management The Oliver Whitby Educational Foundation is a registered charity (charity number 306386) and is governed by its Trust deed Scheme dated 17 October 1951 as amended by Scheme dated 4 January 2016. The Governors who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Nigel Hanbury Mrs Emma Goad Janet Beveridge Anne Scicluna Bemard Adkins Deborah Alun-Jones -1- TTT ## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## GOVERNORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED) ## FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 The Governing Body of the Foundation shall consist of eight persons, that is to say: FIVE Foundation Governors, who shall be members of the Church of England, to be appointed by resolution of the Governors; and THREE Representative Governors,who shall be members of the Church of England, to be appointed: One by the Chichester Diocesan Education Committee, One by the West Sussex County Council, and One by the Chichester City Council The Governors meet formally at least twice in each year.

The Foundation is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. The Foundation 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 Foundation. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. - 1.2. Going concern At the time of approving the financial statements, the Governors have a reasonable expectation that the Foundation has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Governors continue to adopt the going concer basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. ## 1.3 Charitable funds Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Governors in furtherance of their charitable objectives. - 1.4 Income Investment income (including associated tax credits) is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. The amounts relating to funds held for restricted purposes are subsequently transferred to these funds, although no such funds arose in the year. Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Foundation 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. Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Foundation has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. ## 1.5 Expenditure Grants payable are debited to expenditure within the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate or when there is an obligation by the charity to pay the grant. -6- **----- Start of picture text -----**

| ## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 - 1 Accounting policies ## (Continued) 1.6 Fixed asset investments Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. 1.7. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. ## 1.8 Financial instruments The Foundation has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the Foundation's balance sheet when the Foundation 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 debtors 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. ## Basic financial liabilities Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. - 1.9 Fund Accounting The Foundation's reserves consist of unrestricted funds which may be used for any purpose at it's discretion. ## 2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements In the application of the Foundation’s accounting policies, the Governors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. -7- ## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 ## 3 Income from investments |||Unrestricted|Unrestricted| |---|---|---|---| |||funds|funds| |||2025|2024| |||£|£| |income|from listed investments|42,136|50,537| |Interest|receivable|831|1,249| |||42,967|51,786| |4|Expenditure on raising funds||| |---|---|---|---| |||Unrestricted|Unrestricted| |||funds|funds| |||2025|2024| |||£|£| ||Investmentmanagement|19,249|17,401| |5|Charitable activities||| |||Educational|Educational| |||scholarships|scholarships| |||2025|2024| |||£|£| ||Clerk's salary|4,000|4,000| ||Clerk's travel|200|200| ||Typing|300|300| ||Postage and stationery|160|160| |||4,660|4,660| ||Grantfunding ofactivities (see note 6)|63,583|70,508| ||Share ofgovernance costs (see note 7)|2,556|2,436| |||70,799|77,604| -8- ## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 ## 6 Grants payable ||||Educational|Educational| |---|---|---|---|---| ||||scholarships|scholarships| ||||2025|2024| ||||£|£| |Grants|to|individuals|63,583|70,508| ||||63,583|70,508| ## 7 Support costs |Support costs||||||| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| ||Support|Governance|2025Support|costs|Governance|2024| ||costs|costs|||costs|| ||£|£|£|£|£|£| |Independent examination||||||| |fees|-|2,556|2,556|-|2,436|2,436| ||-|2,556|2,556|-|2,436|2,436| |Analysed between||||||| |Charitableactivities|-|2,556|2,556|-|2,436|2,436| ## 8 Governors None of the Governors (or any persons connected with them) received any remuneration or benefits from the Foundation during the year. ## 9 Employees The average monthly number of employees during the year was: ||2025|2024| |---|---|---| ||Number|Number| |Total|-|-| There were no employees whose annual remuneration was more than £60,000. -9- en | ## OLIVER WHITBY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) ## FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 ## aI ## 10 Gains and losses on investments ||Unrestricted|Unrestricted| |---|---|---| ||funds|funds| ||2025|2024| |Gains/(losses) arising on:|£|£| |Revaluation ofinvestments
