## **THE HARRIS CHARITY**
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT**
## **FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
The Trustees present their report and financial statements of the charity for the period ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, 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 published in October 2019.
The year end of the charity has been changed from 5 April 2025 to 31 March 2025.
## **Constitution, objectives and activities for the public benefit**
The charity, which was originally known as “The Harris Orphanage” regulated by a scheme of the High Court of Justice of 23 January 1883, was re-organised in 1985 following the disposal of the Harris Orphanage premises in Garstang Road, Preston, to the Lancashire Polytechnic (now renamed University of Central Lancashire).
The proceeds of sale together with previously held investments have resulted in a substantial endowment which has been invested for the future benefit of young people under the age of twenty-five years resident in the County of Lancashire, with preference given to persons living in the City of Preston (formerly the Borough of Preston).
The Harris Charity is a registered charity governed by a scheme of arrangement dated 8 August 1985 approved by the Charity Commissioners. The Trustees’ powers of investment are determined by the Trustee Act 2000.
Financial assistance is given to relieve hardship or distress, for promoting training and education and to assist in the provision of facilities for recreation and leisure activities.
The trustees generally meet on a quarterly basis to address the business of the charity. The secretary handles the day to day running of the charity from the registered office.
## **Trustees and appointment of new trustees**
The trustees who have served during the period and since the period end are set out on page 1 and are appointed in accordance with the trust scheme.
Trustees are appointed for five years by resolution of the body of trustees passed at a special meeting of which not less than twenty-one days’ notice has been given. The trustees look to appoint new trustees with expertise and knowledge and who have an involvement with the care of children and activities for which grants are sought. Any Trustee who is absent from all meetings of the trustees during a period of two consecutive years is considered to have determined their trusteeship.
The trustee, Mr S W J Huck was re-elected during the year.
## **Investment policy**
An Investment Sub-Committee meets quarterly to review the investment portfolio of the charity and to discuss any proposals made by the investment advisers, Brown Shipley.
The trustees agree with the investment adviser that a realistic income target in the present circumstances is £100,000 per annum rather than the £120,000 figure that has been previously requested with an anticipation that the new income target will not be achieved in the short term as dividends continue to recover. The trustees continue to take a long term view on the investment portfolio and will keep the target figure under review as market conditions change.

## **THE HARRIS CHARITY**
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Investment policy (continued)**
The current Brown Shipley mandate in measuring investment performance is ‘Growth’ using the MSCI PIMFA Private Investor Growth Index as a benchmark. Investments are avoided where their products are harmful to children and young people who the charity serves. The policy is to generate income for the making of grants whilst maintaining capital growth to protect the value of the investments in real terms.
## **Grant-making policy**
The charity invites applications from individuals under the age of 25 years and organisations which support persons under the age of 25 years, twice yearly in March and September. Applicants are invited to submit a summary of their proposals on a specific form. Each application is perused and grants are awarded at the trustees discretion. Each applicant is informed as to whether or not a grant has been awarded and if successful is asked to provide the Trustees with the relevant documents/invoices in order that funds may be released.
## **Public benefit**
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grantmaking policy for the year. Financial assistance is given to relieve hardship or distress, for promoting training and education and to assist in the provision of facilities for recreation and leisure activities for those under the age of twenty five years resident in the county of Lancashire, with preference given to persons living in the city of Preston. An analysis of the assistance provided is shown in note 5.
## **Review of activities – achievements and performance**
During the period 31 grants awards (2024:32) have been made by the charity totalling £116,022 (2024:£107,553). Grants amounting to £262,837 (2024:£224,322) had been approved but not paid at the year end.
The Harris Charity continues to explore ways to provide help to young people in the Lancashire area who are living in challenged circumstances. It works closely with two local charities, Preston Relief in Need and Guild Initiative for Furniture Trust (Gift 92) in supporting young people and families setting up home.
The trustees have identified and reviewed the risks to which the charity is exposed, and have introduced appropriate controls to manage these risks, and to provide reasonable assurance against error and fraud.
## **Financial review**
The charity’s income during the period amounted to £145,406 (2024:£121,150).
Total resources expended during the period amounted to £161,271 (2024:£138,112). Grants payable during the period totalled £109,502 (2024: £89,863). The overall result was an increase in the value of the unrestricted fund of £29,549 (2024:increase of £24,052) to £418,999 (2024:£389,450) at 31 March 2025 after adding (2024:deducting) the unrealised gain of £18,777 (2024:gain of £16,123) on investments and current asset investments held.
During the period the value of the endowment fund increased by £34,562 (2024:increase of £376,661) to £4,419,114 (2024:£4,384,552) at 31 March 2025. This occurred as a result of gains of £61,199 (2024: gains of £401,552) and after deducting investment management costs of £26,637 (2024:£24,891).

## **THE HARRIS CHARITY**
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Reserves policy**
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are free reserves of the charity, at a level that provides sufficient funds to cover grants payable and administration costs and to respond to emergency applications for grants which arise from time to time. The endowment fund is invested in order to generate the income necessary to provide for the grants that are awarded.
The trustees confirm that the free reserves of the charity at the period end were £418,999 (2024: £389,450).
This report was approved by the Trustees on and signed on its behalf: October 30, 2025

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE**
## **TRUSTEES OF THE HARRIS CHARITY**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Harris Charity for the period ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages 6 to 15.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of The Harris Charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1 Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Harris Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
- 2 The accounts do not accord with those records; or
- 3 The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **THE HARRIS CHARITY**
## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Basis of preparation**
The Harris Charity is a charity registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are set out on page 2 of the trustees report.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The 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 the 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 issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £000.
## **Going concern**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainty exists that casts doubt on the charity’s’ ability to continue to operate. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for the twelve months from the date of the authorising of these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
## **Income recognition**
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to receipt and it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds then the income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
Investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity is entitled to receipt.

## **THE HARRIS CHARITY**
## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies (continued)**
## **Expenditure recognition**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been allocated to the fund to which it relates. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payment, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. The charity is not registered for VAT, consequently, input VAT incurred is charged against the expenditure heading to which it relates.
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.
## **Allocation of support and governance costs**
Support costs are those costs incurred that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities. They are in sustained support of expenditure on the objects of the charity.
Governance costs are those costs relating to the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulations and good charity practices. The trustees have decided that all such costs be met from unrestricted funds.
## **Investments**
Investments are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted mid market price as quoted on the London Stock Exchange and, in the case of foreign investments, on their respective stock exchanges.
## **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 sale 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 cost, if acquired during the year, their fair value at the previous year end and their fair value at the current year end.
## **Unrestricted fund**
The unrestricted fund is a fund which is available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which has not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The charity currently has no designated funds.
## **Endowment fund**
The endowment fund is a fund representing those assets which must be held permanently by the charity, principally investments. Income arising on the endowment fund can be used in accordance with the objects of the charity and is included as unrestricted income. Any capital gains or losses arising on the investments form part of the fund.
