STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Sarum St Michael Educational Charity is a Registered Charity founded in 1979 and is regulated under the Charity Commission scheme of 24 January 1980. In June 2004 the Charity Commission gave an order to amend the original scheme, allowing the appointment of two additional Governors and another ex-officio Governor.

The Charity is managed by the Managing Trustees (known as Governors) who comprise five ex-officio Governors (as shown on page 1 of this report) and five nominative Governors consisting of three from the Salisbury Diocesan Board of Education and two from the Synod of the Diocese of Salisbury. The Salisbury Diocesan Board of Education is the Custodian Trustee of the Charity.

The Governors may appoint not more than four additional Governors to hold office for a term of two years. Every appointment shall be made by a resolution of the Governors to be passed at a meeting of their body.

The appointment of governors is undertaken after consultation with both the Diocesan Synod and the Salisbury Diocesan Board of Education. The aim is that the Board of Governors should have as wide a breadth of experience as possible to include religious, educational, legal and financial knowledge.

Governors

Before new Governors are appointed they are invited to attend a Governors’ meeting as an observer. In addition they are given a copy of the Charity Commission’s Order for the Charity so that they fully understand the conditions and criteria in the Order that they will have to observe. They also receive a copy of the latest annual report and accounts and investment management report.

Organisation

The Managing Trustees meet four or five times a year to determine grants and other expenditure. They review policy, consider financial statements and receive reports by the investment manager.

At each of the Governors’ meetings personal, parish, school and corporate grant applications are considered and the decision whether or not to award grants and the level of the award is reached with the consensus of the Governors present. There is a quorum when four Governors are present at the meeting.

Day-to-day management of the Charity is delegated to the Clerk to the Governors, assisted by a secretary/bookkeeper. The Chairman of the Governors regularly discusses the management of the Charity with the Clerk.

Policy on Grant-Making

The Charity pursues its policy by making grants in accordance with its object, normally to those living or studying in the Diocese of Salisbury or an adjoining Diocese, for the public benefit.

Teaching bursaries for students who are intending to specialise in Religious Education (RE) and will take appropriate courses in Primary or Secondary Education are considered every year.

The Charity has its own website and invites applications for grants by that means as well as through other publicity. All applicants must complete a standard form. Grants for persons attending educational establishments are continued only if the applicant remains at that establishment. Grants to institutions to fund specific projects or posts are awarded on condition that for the term of the grant a report on the achievements of the project or post is received each year.

Risk Management

The Charity’s Managing Trustees have considered the risks to which the Charity is exposed and have reviewed those risks and established systems and procedures to manage those risks. The Governors believe that the variability of investment returns constitutes the Charity’s main risk. The Governors appointed the current investment manager in 2012 (Investec Wealth & Investment Ltd) and in 2018 conducted an internal formal review of their performance from January 2013 to December 2017. Governors concluded that this had been satisfactory and plan another review in 2023 of performance in the five years ending December 2022, unless circumstances point to the need for an earlier one.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The object of the Charity is the advancement of education in accordance with the principles and doctrines of the Church of England in one or more of the following ways:

The Charity pursues its objectives by making grants to individuals and institutions such as universities, schools, parishes and other religious establishments. The Charity is an active member of the Religious Education Council (REC) and the Association of Church College Trusts (ACCT), with the aim of supporting national efforts to promote the cause of religious education.

When planning the activities for the year, the Trustees confirm that they have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. The Charity’s aims are entirely consistent with grants being awarded for the public benefit.

The Trustee's aim in 2021 was to allocate grants so that 45% was for personal grants and bursaries, 50% for corporate grants, 3% for schools and 2% for parishes.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Sixty grant applications were received during 2021. Of the fifty- three personal applicants, forty- one were successful. Two of the four corporate applications were successful. There were three school applications and one parish application, all of which were successful.

The Charity approved new grants totalling £83,132 in the year. Of the previously approved grants £12,415 due for payment in 2021 were deferred to 2022. During 2021 the Charity paid grants totalling £162,501 (2020: £185,272) and grants of £5,566 were refunded (2020: £7,470).

The division of grants paid between recipients differed from the proposed target and worked out at 43.8% for personal applicants (including those channelled through Winchester University), 54.9% for corporate applications, 1% for schools and 0.3% for parishes. The analysis of grants is shown in note 4 to the accounts.

A selection of comments from beneficiaries is annexed.

One trustee attended the ACCT Horizons Seminar in March, focussing on the impact funders want to make on religious education (RE).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Charity is reliant on the income from its investments. Total investment income for the year was £163,001 (2020 - £150,478).

The investment management costs for 2021 were £37,113 (2020 - £34,491), of which £36,295 related to endowments (2020 - £33,469). Grants paid were £162,501, and grants refunded were £5,566.

Administration and premises costs were £26,364, of which £25,046 (95%) were allocated to other support costs and the balance £1,318 to governance costs, which totalled £6,627 for 2021 (2020 - £5,471). Other support costs and governance costs were then allocated to charitable activities, giving a total of £188,608 for the cost of grants payable (2020 - £211,143).

Total expenditure was £225,721, of which £36,295 related to endowment funds, and the net expenditure for the year was £62,720 (2020 - net expenditure of £95,156). However, investment gains for the year were £612,062 (2020: £108,967), making a net movement in funds for the year of £549,342 surplus (2020: £13,811 surplus).

At the end of the year the net assets of the Charity were £6,890,203 (2020: £6,340,861).

Grants approved in 2021 and earlier years for payment in 2021, but deferred to 2022, totalled £12,415. Grants approved for payment in 2022 totalled £79,110, in 2023 £70,000. This gave a total of £161,525 approved but not paid at the end of the year. As is usual policy, these future years' grants have been designated for payment from accumulated income, which has been set aside in a designated fund for grants payable in 2022 to 2023.

Investment Policy and Performance

Investec has been instructed to manage the main portfolio (Endowment Fund) to enhance the real value of the capital and income of the Fund and to aim for a target return of RPI plus 3%, net of fees. The charity's aim is to sustain the income stream in the region of £160,000 (as at end 2011) in real terms. This year the income recovered somewhat after the previous year's shortall owing to the financial impact of the COVID19 pandemic and repeated lockdowns on businesses worldwide, resulting in cancellation and reduction of activities and dividends in 2020. However, it is still well below the levels achieved pre Covid-19.

At the end of 2021, the main portfolio valued at £6,668,988 consisted of 34.1% UK Equities, 39.2% Overseas Equities, 10.6% Fixed Income, 6.5% Property, 7.7% Alternatives and 1.7% Cash.

Investec has reported that the total return on the main portfolio was 12.06% net of fees. This compares with the benchmark return of 10.19% (RPI + 3%,). The portfolio thus performed well in 2021 as most markets recovered after the economic devastation brought about by the global Covid-19 pandemic.

Investec has also been instructed to manage the smaller accumulated income portfolio. Their objective is to enhance the value of the capital and income of the fund with the avoidance of undue risk as the fund will be drawn down and spent when suitable opportunities arise. At the end of 2021 the portfolio valued at £220,551 consisted of 43.0% UK Equities, 32.5% Fixed Income and 24.5% Cash.

Investec has reported that the total return on the accumulated income portfolio was 6.10% net of fees. This compares with the benchmark return of 4.68% (Bespoke benchmark comprising 45% Fixed Interest, 40% UK Equities and 15% Cash).

The investment manager has been instructed to adhere to the ethical investment policy of the Church of England, and to favour companies that display a positive approach to governance and sustainability.

Reserves Policy

The Charity has a general reserve of accumulated income the level of which was reviewed by the Governors in April 2016. It was decided that the general reserve should cover a minimum of one year’s future support and governance costs. However, this reserve is after transfers of accumulated income to the designated fund for the grants approved for payment by the end of the next three financial years.

The total reserves at the 31 December 2021 were £243,205 (2020:£262,358). Of this, the general reserve at 31 December 2021 stood at £81,680 (2020: - £3,737).

The inflation-adjusted value of the endowed capital funds whose original value was £907,698 at 24 January 1980 was £4,637,756 at December 2021. This compares with the market value of £6,668,988 at 31 December 2021.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

The Governors have set a total grant budget for 2022 of £180,775, inclusive of support costs, which is £88,000 more than the grants already approved for payment in 2022 plus deferred 2021 grants.

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The purpose of this statement is to distinguish the trustees’ responsibilities for the accounts from those of the independent examiners, as stated in their report.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which are such as to disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the Charity’s financial position at any time, and to enable the trustees to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the charity's constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the Charity’s assets, and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the Charity are prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective from 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and 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 Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. These financial statements are drawn up on the historical cost accounting basis except that investment assets are carried at market value. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. A summary of the more important accounting policies is set out below.

b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The global pandemic of COVID-19 had a financial impact on the Charity in the year to 31 December 2021, but investment income improved in comparison with the previous year. The number of grants paid fell in the year as individuals and institutions were still unable to perform the tasks associated with the grants, resulting in £12,415 of grants being deferred to 2022. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. There are no material judgements that affect the accounts. The main source of estimation uncertainty for 2022 relates to the value of investments and investment income.

c

Fund structure

Unrestricted funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use in accordance with the charitable objects. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes (see note 12).

The endowment fund represents those assets which must be held permanently by the Charity. Income arising on the endowment fund can be used in accordance with the objects of the Charity and is included as unrestricted income. Any realised or unrealised capital gains or losses arising on the investments form part of the fund.

d Income

Income is accounted for in the period in which the Charity is entitled to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. Interest is recognised when receivable.

e Expenditure

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 settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is included on an accruals basis and includes VAT where charged.

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled.

f Allocation of support costs and governance costs

Support costs have been differentiated between governance costs and other support costs.

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit or independent examination together with an apportionment of support costs.

Governance and other support costs relating to charitable activities have been apportioned based on the number of grants awarded per category of grant in recognition that the administrative burden of awarding and monitoring each grant is broadly equivalent.

The allocation of support and governance costs is analysed in note 5.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

g Expenditure on raising funds

Expenditure on raising funds comprise investment management costs.

h Charitable activities

Costs of Charitable activities include grants made, governance costs and an apportionment of support costs as shown in note 4.

i Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and included at cost.

Depreciation is provided on fixed assets at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

Computer equipment: 25% per annum on cost Office equipment: 20% per annum on cost Office furniture: 10% per annum on cost

j Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value (mid market price) as at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. The charity does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments.

k Realised gains 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 the sale proceeds and opening market value (or purchase date if later). Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the market value at the year end and opening market value (or purchase date if later).

l Debtors

Debtors are measured at the amounts the charity anticipates it will receive from a debt or the amount it has paid in advance for goods or services.

m Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and cash on deposit.

Liabilities are measured at the amounts the charity anticipates it will pay to settle a debt or the amount it has received as an advance payment for goods or services it must provide.

o Financial Instruments

The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. These are recognised at amortised cost, except for investments which are measured at fair value with changes recognised on the Statement of Financial Activities.

p Leases

Commitments in respect to rent and other charges paid under operating leases are shown in the notes to the accounts. Costs are recognised in the SOFA on a straight line basis over the lease term.

SARUM ST MICHAEL EDUCATIONAL CHARITY ANNEX FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

Comments from Beneficiaries

I would like to thank the trustees for the support you have shown me through the provision of financial help. I enjoyed the course a great deal and, after some reflection, am now offering the ministry of spiritual direction. JD

I wanted to thank you for your generous grant to support my MA in Theology, Imagination and Culture at Sarum College. I have now completed the six taught modules and have really appreciated the opportunity to read and think about new issues. The teaching has been very stimulating and I feel that I have grown over the past year. I have also had several opportunities to use my work with the education team at two dioceses, supporting RE teachers . JK

I have just completed the Ministry Training Course. Your funding for the fees enabled me to sign up. I wanted to say how grateful I have been for the opportunity and how much I have learned from it. One highlight has been the excellent Bible overview, which has taken us from Genesis to Revelation and has let us see how the different books hang together. Another highlight has been the small group I have been a part of, where we have had the chance to give practice talks and give and receive feedback. This has been a hugely formative and encouraging experience. EHS

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the generous support you gave me to complete the Cambridge Certificate for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. I received the grade of Pass A, the highest pass grade achieved by around 3% of participants. I am currently living in Thessaloniki, Greece, and hope to start voluntary English teaching with migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. I wouldn’t have been able to complete this course without your support. MY

Receiving the Sarum St Michael RE bursary has been a great relief from financial pressure, allowing me to focus on my studies without worry. Otherwise I might have had to consider a part-time job, which would have been extremely challenging given the demands of the RE/PGCE. The bursary has been a great support and I am extremely grateful for the Sarum St Michael Educational Charity’s generosity. LB

The RE bursary has been a huge help to me. In my undergraduate years money was tight and sometimes it would be difficult to purchase resources or travel home. I have found that the bursary’s biggest aid has been in resources for assignments, as it goes towards essential texts. It also helps with travelling to and from placements. It has been a real benefit for my teacher training . EP

I am writing to express my thanks for your grant towards my final year of study. You made it possible for me to complete what has proved an extremely formative year in my journey in theological education. My dissertation led me to focus on how storytelling can be used in theological education for children and I believe this has been an extremely significant project for me as an individual and to the church. I am about to take up a position in a local church serving children and families and am looking forward to putting into practice all that I have learnt. LL
