The Charity for the Emolument of the Chaplain of St Edward, King & Martyr, Cambridge 

Annual Report to the Charity Commission 

2023-2024 

The Trustees for the year were: 

Representing Trinity Hall: 

Revd Dr Stephen Plant (Chair); Miss Alison Hennegan (Clerk); Dr Robert Asher. 

## For St Edward’s: 

Dr Paul Anderson (Church Warden); Mrs Jillian Wilkinson (resigned December 2023); Mrs Heather Rix. 

The object of the Charity is the provision or augmentation of the emolument of the Chaplain of St Edward’s Church or the defraying of expenses incurred by or on behalf of the said Chaplain in the performance of the duties of his/her office and in otherwise contributing to the maintenance of public worship. 

The Trustees declare that there is no conflict of interests between themselves as individuals and their role as Trustees. 

During the year the Trust paid a stipend to the Vicar-Chaplain, the Revd. Dr. Mark Scarlata and to the Assistant to the Vicar Chaplain, the Revd. Dr. Matthias Grebe, proportionate to the time worked. The Trust paid additional fees for visiting clergy who had taken services to cover annual leave of clergy. 

The Trust’s funds, which are held in Trinity Hall Investment Funds, at 30/06/2024 total £2,252,826; all expenditure paid by the trust derive from the income yielded by these funds. We continue to match the stipend we award clergy to the rate of stipend paid by the Diocese of Ely to diocesan clergy. 

In addition to the remuneration paid to the clergy at St Edward’s, the Trustees used funds to provide governance training and to pay ecclesiastical insurance to insure the clergy against indemnity
