REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023 |
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 |
Objectives and Activities |
As set out in the objects contained in the Foundation's memorandum of association, the principal object of the Foundation is, and will continue to be, the advancement of research and education in England and Wales and elsewhere in the fields of art, science and medical research and any other charitable objects as the Trustees shall, at their discretion, decide according to the laws of England and Wales. Grant applications are scrutinised to ensure compliance with the Foundation's stated objects. The Trustees confirm they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission. |
Grant-making policy |
It is the policy of the Trust to review applications from charitable organisations and to make grants on a selective basis. |
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
As shown on page 15, the Foundation's charitable commitments in the year increased by £949 from the impact of exchange difference (2022: net increase of £25,983). |
FINANCIAL REVIEW |
Financial position |
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the revised Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2019). The Trustees have taken advantage of the small company exemptions in the preparation of this report. |
The net increase in funds for the year was £50,194 and was added from the funds balance at the beginning of the year to give a balance carried forward at the end of the year of £1,782,652 (for the year ended 31 December 2022 the net decrease of £25,170 was deducted to give a funds balance of £1,732,458). These funds are unrestricted and will be applied to meeting the Foundation's commitments and any other donations in the coming year. |
The Trustees report that: |
1. The Foundation has sufficient funds to cover its immediate and future commitments out of current resources. As set out in page 15 outstanding commitments at the year end were £14,135 of which £4,712 is payable in 2024. The remaining £9,423 is the total of instalments payable in accordance with a gift agreement to be paid during the years 2025 to 2028. |
2. The Foundation's assets are held in order to further its objectives and all funds received have been or will be applied to the achievement of those objectives. |
3. The Trustees have performed a review of the Foundation's ability to continue as a going concern. In their opinion the Foundation will be able to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. |
Investment policy |
Surplus funds are retained in cash deposits. |
Reserves policy |
The Foundation does not make full distribution of its income in each year but works to a broad policy of making full distribution of its income over the medium to long term. |
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT |
Governing document |
The Foundation was incorporated under the Companies Act 1985 as a private company limited by guarantee under number 06802985 on 27 January 2009.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023 |
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT |
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees |
Trustees are appointed by Resolution of the Members of the Foundation. |
Management and organisation |
The Foundation has no employees. The administration of the Foundation is dealt with by the Trustees and supported by their professional advisers. These services are provided free of charge by the Trustees. |
Risk management |
The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Foundation faces and confirm that systems have been established so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. These are kept under regular review. |
Currency risk |
Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Accordingly, the value of such instruments may be affected favourably or unfavourably by fluctuations in currency rates. The currency risk sensitivity analysis has not been disclosed because the impact is not material. |
Interest rate risk |
Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair values of financial instruments. As at 31 December 2023, the Foundation is exposed to interest rate risk on the payment of Grants in instalments over an extended period. The interest rate risk sensitivity analysis has not been disclosed because the impact is not material. |
Other major risks |
The Foundation's outstanding charitable commitments are expected to be met out of current resources and future income. The Trustees have identified no other major risks. |
Trustee activities |
The Trustees are supported in their activities by their professional advisers and attend Trustee meetings. |
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The trustees (who are also the directors of Raymond And Beverly Sackler Foundation for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". |
Company law 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 charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; |
- | make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. |
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
In so far as the trustees are aware: |
- | there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and |
- | the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information. |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2023 |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, George Hay & Company, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
Approved by order of the board of trustees on |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAYMOND AND BEVERLY SACKLER FOUNDATION |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Raymond And Beverly Sackler Foundation (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31st December 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31st December 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. 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 we have fulfilled our other ethical 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. |
Conclusions relating to going concern |
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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. |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAYMOND AND BEVERLY SACKLER FOUNDATION |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
- | adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or |
- | the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees. |
Responsibilities of trustees |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are 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 trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company'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 trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
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 a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our 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. |
Based on our understanding of the charitable company's operations, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations relates to grant making. We considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements that results in the situation that no further grant funding can be provided. We also considered the relevant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements. |
We are required to evaluate management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls). We found there were no principal risks directly impacting the charitable company's income and management bias in accounting estimates. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included: |
- Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud; |
- Evaluating management's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities; |
- Identifying and testing journals, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations or with unusual descriptions; and |
- Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their critical accounting estimates. |
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. |
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 Report of the Independent Auditors. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
RAYMOND AND BEVERLY SACKLER FOUNDATION |
Use of our report |
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members 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 31ST DECEMBER 2023 |
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The accounts of the Foundation, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) "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 1st January 2019)", Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland", the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006. The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to the accounts. |
Going concern |
No material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the ability of the Foundation to continue as a going concern have been identified by the Trustees. The activities, financial position, cash flow and liquidity position are set out in the Trustees' Report and the financial statements. The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Foundation has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and they thus continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. |
Incoming resources |
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Foundation is entitled to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: |
- Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the Foundation, are recognised when the Foundation becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. |
- Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the Foundation where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts. |
- Investment income is included when receivable. |
Resources expended |
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates: |
- Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Foundation in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. |
- Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Foundation and include the accountancy fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the Foundation. |
- All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. |
Recognition of grant commitments payable |
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year-end are accrued as expenditure. In accordance with FRS 102, the payment of a Grant in instalments over an extended period is considered to be a `debt instrument`. The Foundation records its long-term liabilities (i.e. deferred instalments) in the accounts at their discounted present value in order to attribute an economic value to the deferral of payments. As the instalments are paid, the unwinding of the discount is accounted for as a finance charge in the Statement of Financial Activities. As per FRS 102.11.12, the present values of deferred instalments are discounted at the required discount rate, being the market rate for a similar debt instrument. As there is no such market the Foundation uses notional rates to reflect the top rate of interest available at the Balance Sheet date for deposits of Foundation funds. |
Taxation |
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. |
