The Trustee presents its Report together with the Financial Statements of The Drapers’ Charitable Fund (“the Charity”)for the year ended 31 July 2020. 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 Charities Act 2011, 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, and the documents governing the constitution of the Charity.

Reference and administrative informationThe legal and administrative details set out in Appendices A to C form part of this Report.

Structure, governance and management

OriginThe Charity is constituted under a Trust Deed dated 23 July 1959 and a Charity Commission Scheme dated 18 November 1996, as amended by a Supplemental Trust Deed dated 21 May 2014.

The bulk of the Charity’s capital was donated by The Drapers’ Company in two tranches in 1959 and 1965. Further amounts have been received from the Company by way of donation. In recent years, donations and legacies from individuals have been taken into the Gift and Legacy Fund.

Under a Charity Commission Scheme dated 17 January 2012, the property of two charities under the trusteeship of The Drapers’ Company, The Drapers’ Consolidated Charity (including Charities General for the Poor of the Drapers’ Company) and Henry Dixon’s Foundation for Apprenticing, was transferred to The Drapers’ Charitable Fund to be administered for their existing purposes as restricted funds of the Charity.

On 16 November 2011 the Trustee of The Drapers’ (William & Mary) Tercentennial Award, pursuant to the power in clause 8 of the Trust Deed of 15 May 1992, resolved that the assets of the Charity be transferred to the Drapers’ Charitable Fund to be administered for their existing purposes as a restricted fund of the Charity.

Governance and managementThe Charity uses The Drapers’ Company for the provision of administration services, which are provided on a shared basis with other charities under common trusteeship of the Company. The Charity is a participant in The Drapers’ Charities Pooling Scheme.

The Drapers’ Company is the Charity’s Trustee and acts through its Court of Assistants ('the Court”),which meets at least nine times a year, agrees overall strategy and takes all policy decisions. These policies developed and refined by three Standing Committees which oversee grant allocation, finance and investments respectively, and Officers.

The operation of the Committees is reviewed annually by the Court for effectiveness against the overall aims and objectives of the Company and its Charities.

The Court takes decisions on the award of grants above £50,000. The Trustee delegates authority for the award of grants up to £50,000 and the implementation of the agreed grant-making policy to the Charities Committee. The Committee membership is drawn from the Court and members of the Company. Composition of the Committee is reviewed and confirmed each year. The Committee, which meets five times a year, has clearly defined terms of reference.

Governance and management (continued)Each year the Court elects at least training on trustee duties and obligations by the Company’s Officers and external providers before taking up their position. In addition, all members of the Court receive regular and ongoing trustee training in relevant areas.

member from the Company membership who is given specificone new

The Fund, on occasion, may provide grants and support to, or receive grants from, other charities administered by The Drapers’ Company. Further details are provided in the notes to the financial statements.

Key management personnel remunerationThe Trustee considers the members of the Court as Trustee and together with the members of the Charities Committee, who have limited and clearly defined terms of reference, comprise the key management personnel of the Charity in charge of directing and controlling the Charity and overseeing the running and operating of the Charity on a day-to-day basis. The members of the Court, in their capacity as Trustee, give their time freely and no trustee remuneration was paid in the year.

Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and register them with the Company Secretary and in accordance with the Charity’s policy withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises. Neither the Charity nor any of the members of The Drapers’ Company Court as Trustee have interests with beneficiary charities but any such interests would be disclosed.

Risk managementThe principal risks faced by the Trust concern the performance of its investments, the operational risks from ineffective grant-making, and the capacity of the Trust to make appropriate and effective grants.

The Trustee mitigates the investment risk through the regular review of investment strategy and portfolio performance by the Investment Committee and professional advisors. The Common Investment Fund (The Drapers’ Charities Pooling Scheme) in which the Charity’s assets are invested also assists in spreading the risk. The operational risk of ineffective grant-making is managed by the Trustee through a triennial review of the Charity’s grant-making criteria which takes account of prevailing economic and social factors. In addition,

increasingly pro-active approach to grant-making, with a focus on impact and outcomes, maintains its effectiveness. This, together with the broad skills and experience of the Court and Charities Committee, and well-defined terms of reference ensures the capacity of the Trust to make appropriate and effective grants is increased.

an

FundraisingThe Trustees take their responsibilities under the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016 seriously and have considered the implications on their fundraising activities. The Charity is a charitable trust supported by The Drapers’ Company. It does not carry out any fundraising activity in order to raise funds from the general public. The Charity does not work directly with commercial sponsors or engage professional fundraisers. The Trustees are not aware of any complaints made in respect of fundraising during the year.

Statement of trustee responsibilitiesThe Trustee is responsible for preparing the trustee’s 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 & Wales requires the Trustee 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 Trustee is required to:

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEEFOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020

Statement of trustee responsibilities (continued)select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP (FRS 102) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed 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 business.

The Trustee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable it to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011,and the provisions of the trust deeds. The Trustee is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In the opinion of the Trustee the Charity is adequately resourced to continue to benefit those in need of charitable assistance, in accordance with its objects. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Objectives and activities for the public benefitThe objects of the Charity are wide ranging being such purposes and objects which are charitable at law, as the Trustee determines.

The Charity aims to improve the quality of life and expectations of people and their communities, particularly those disadvantaged or socially excluded. It achieves this by funding organisations in the fields of education and social welfare, particularly in Greater London where the Company has its historical roots.

The Charity continues to promote the Company’s textile heritage and maintains its traditional support for the City of London and its historical connections in Northern Ireland.

The Trustee has complied with the Charities Act 2011, having due regard for the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives, setting the grant-making policy and in awarding grants.

In directing its grant-making, the Trustee applies criteria such as geographical area, particular types of project, beneficiary or specific areas of charitable activity to the broad themes for support noted above. The themes for support agreed by the Trustee for the next three years are education and young people, social welfare, and textiles and heritage.

The Charity is a flexible grant maker, responding to a broad range of appeals from a wide variety of organisations. The main themes for support are reviewed tri-annually by the Trustee and the annual objectives within the three year period remain the same, to distribute net income within the themes chosen for support in an efficient and effective manner.

The objectives are met by the implementation of a grant-making policy.

Grant-making policyThe Charity will normally only accept applications from UK registered charities. Support is focused organisations whose total income is less than £10 million per annum. Funding is primarily provided for core costs and/or project costs to enable organisations to maintain and develop their services.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEEFOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020

At the year end the net investment losses of holdings in the Drapers’ Charities Pooling Scheme £1,361,802. Total charitable funds fell in the year from £74,085,230 to £72,506,171.

Capital and property investment markets remain volatile, due to the uncertainty caused by the ongoing Covid- 19 pandemic. The valuations used for the property assets are provided by third party experts, but due to their reiliance on retrospective data and the fast moving nature of the situation, there is a degree of uncertainty on whether those valuations fully reflect the current market sentiment.

Investment Policy and PerformanceThere are no restrictions on the Charity’s power to invest. The investment objective of the Trustee is to combine income and capital growth in a conservative manner. In keeping with this aim, the Trustee regularly reviews the allocation of investment assets of those charities for which it has responsibility. The Charity’s investments consist of holdings in The Drapers’ Charities Pooling Scheme (Registered Charity Number 1061675) and its interest in an investment property gifted by Throgmorton Assets pic, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Drapers’ Company. The Trustee does not take any specific social, environmental or ethical considerations when carrying out the investment objective.

ReservesTotal funds of the charity at 31 July 2020 were £72,506,171 • Of this, £59,929,278 represented the endowment funds of the charity, £7,077,358 was the year-end balance of the nine restricted income funds held within the charity and £5,499,535 was held as unrestricted reserves. Unrestricted reserves included designated funds of £4,333,320 relating to the gift from the Drapers’ Company noted above and a balance of £428,183 in the Special Projects Fund, which was established by the Trustee in 2000/01 for the periodic funding of major projects. The Trustee actively investigates opportunities to support a suitable project or projects where a major grant might be appropriate. General funds of £738,032 were held within unrestricted reserves. The Trustee reviews the reserves policy on an annual basis. The Trustee has considered the level of general free reserves which are appropriate for the Charity and will hold the minimum unrestricted reserve necessary to fund working capital requirements. This is not expected to exceed 10% of the Charity’s unrestricted income. General funds of £738,032 were higher than the target level of approximately £210,000. The Trustee wishes to avoid significant fluctuations in grant-making from year to year and will continue to expend surplus general ilinds over the next two to three years until the minimum level is reached.

The Trustee reviews the reserves policy on an annual basis. No change to the reserve policy has been required as a result of the Coivd-19 pandemic.

Plans for future periodsThe grant-making policy remains as set out in this Report. The Trustee will continue to carefully monitor and review the themes and criteria which form the current priorities for funding, and thereby support wide range of charitable organisations in the most efficient and effective way

resources and application of resources for the year then ended;• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting

Practice; and• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.

Basis for opinionWe conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law.

We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

further described in the Auditor’sare

have fulfilled our other ethicalwe

Conclusions relating to going concernWe have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

• the trustee’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or

• the trustee has not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Other informationThe trustee is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS,REPORT TO THE TRUSTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020

Matters on which we are required to report by exceptionWe have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• the information given in the Report of the Trustee is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or

• the charity has not kept sufficient accounting records; or• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of the trusteeAs explained fully in the Trustee’s Responsibilities Statement set out responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustee determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

page 2-3, the trustee ismore on

In preparing the financial statements, the trustee is responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustee either intends to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statementsWe have been appointed as auditors under the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under that Act.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

our

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our ReportThis report is made solely to the charity’s trustee in accordance with part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the trustee those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors’ report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020

Accounting Policies

1.1 Basis of preparationThe accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed asset investments, and applicable accounting standards in the United Kingdom. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The Charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

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 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 1 January 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities. Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Capital and property investment markets remain volatile, due to the uncertainty caused by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The valuations used for the property assets are provided by third party experts, but due to their reliance on retrospective data and the fast moving nature of the situation, there is a degree of uncertainty on whether those valuations fully reflect the current market sentiment.

1.2 IncomeAll 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

Voluntary incomeDonations 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 the conditions that require a level of performance before the Charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Investment incomeInterest 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.

1.3 ExpenditureLiabilitiescommitting the Charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of obligation can be measured reliably.

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings.

THE DRAPERS,CHARITABLE FUND

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020

Expenditure (continued)The provision for a multi-year grant is recognised as its present value where settlement is due over more than one year from the date of the award, there are no unfulfilled performance conditions under the control of the Charity that would permit the Charity to avoid making the future payment(s), settlement is probable and the effect of discounting is material.

1.4 InvestmentsInvestments are a form of basic financial instrument representing shares in The Drapers’ Charities Pooling Scheme and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the proportionate amount of the net asset value of the Scheme pool 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.

In 2015/16, Throgmorton Assets pic granted an intermediate lease on one of its investment properties by way of a gift to the Charity for a term of 14 years. As a result,the Charity will receive a secure annual income of £500,000 over the term of the lease. The value of the gift was £6,066,540, and will be amortised over its 14 year life.

The Charity 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 investment risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities and within particular sectors or sub-sectors.

1.5 FundsThe Charity maintains four types of fund:

Expendable Endowment Fund - where the capital is expendable by the Trustee in furtherance of the Charity’s objects. This income generated by this capital is treated as unrestricted.

Restricted Fund • where the purposes for which the capital and income of the funds may be used has been restricted by the Charity Commission or by specific trusts declared by the donors.

Unrestricted Fund - where the fund is not restricted in use within the Charity’s objects, including income generated from the expendable endowment fund which is not restricted as to use within the Charity’s objects and is classified as General Fund in the financial statements.

Designated - where the Trustee has exercised its discretion to set aside part of the unrestricted fund for designated purposes.

Further details of the nature and purpose of each fund are set out in Notes 11,12 and 13 to the Financial Statements.

1.6 Contingent liabilitiesA contingent liability is identified and disclosed for those grants resulting from:

possible obligation which will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the Trustee’s control; or

present obligation following a grant offer where settlement is either not considered probable; orthe amount has not been communicated in the grant offer and that amount cannot be estimated reliably.
