THE LINBURY TRUST —5 APRIL 2020
The Trust is one of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts which share a commonadministration but are otherwise independent of each other.
Each of the current Trustees has extensive experience of trusteeship generally and ofthe charity sector more specifically. Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission'sguidance on Charities and Public Benefit. In this annual report they provide very full
information about the Trust's aims, and about its activities and achievements in themany areas of interest that the Trust supports. They consider that this informationdemonstrates the benefits to the Trust's beneficiaries, and through them to the public,that arise from carrying out those aims.
The section below headed 'Review of the Past Year' (p 5-12) provides an overview ofthe Trustees' actions during the year in each of the grant-making categories listedbelow and, selectively, gives a flavour of the valuable work undertaken by ourbeneficiaries.
General Policies
The Trustees continued to initiate and consider proposals to make grants within thefollowing categories. The sums awarded may be small or may amount to manymillions, either on a once only basis or as a commitment over a number of years:
~ Arts~ Environment~ Museums and Heritage~ Social Welfare
~ Education~ Medical~ Overseas
The Trustees take a proactive approach towards grant-making; accordingly,unsolicited applications are not usually accepted. The Trustees' practice is to givegrants only for work which they believe will be meaningful, have impact and be valuefor money. The Trustees give priority to charitable causes where they have particularknowledge and experience of; for areas where they do not have sufficient knowledgeor experience, they may seek expert advice from qualified specialists. Decisions aretaken by the Trustees who delegate day to day management to the Principal Officers.
Risk Assessment
The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks towhich the Trust may be exposed. Through the joint office of the Sainsbury FamilyCharitable Trusts, adequate systems are in place to meet such potential risks as theTrustees have identified. The Trustees continue to keep processes under review.
The Trustees have identified the uncertainty of financial returns as the charity'sprincipal financial risk. This risk is mitigated through the appointment of threeexperienced investment management firms, and by the diversification of the porffolioreferred to in the following section.
The COVID-19 pandemic has not adversely affected the Trust's viability and the Trustis focused on supporting applicants through this crisis.
Another major risk is misuse of funds by a grant beneficiary. The Trustees mitigatethis risk by normally restricting grants to charities that are registered with the CharityCommission for England and Wales, and to charitable bodies that are exempt fromregistration. Grants are made only after a thorough assessment and are regularlymonitored.
THE LINBURY TRUST —5 APRIL 2020
Reserves Polic
The Trustees approve grants for payment over one or more years. These are broughtinto the accounts where there is a commitment to pay. The Trustees meet thesecommitments out of income, and where there is insufficient income, they do so fromexpendable endowment. Accordingly, Trustees take the view that all available fundsshould be seen as one; they have therefore adopted a Statement of Financial Activitiesthat merges all resources.
It is the policy of the Trustees to ensure that there are sufficient resources to meetcommitments as they fall due. The Trustees are satisfied that the totality andcomposition of the Trust's resources are sufficient for this purpose. The Trust does notfundraise.
As shown on page 14, at the year end the total funds of the Trust consisted ofExpendable Endowment of F120.3m (2019:F135.3m).
Investment Powers Polic and Performance
The Trust Deed empowers the Trustees to appoint investment advisers, who are givendiscretion to invest the funds of the Trust within guidelines established by the Trustees.
The Trustees' investment policy is to maximise funds available for grant-making whilepreserving the real value of the endowment over the medium term. The Trusteescontinue to broaden the diversification of the investment porffolio: at the year-end theTrust's shares in J Sainsbury pic represented 14% of the total value of the endowment(2019: 16%).
The major part of the Trust's endowment continues to be invested in stock markets.
The investment committee of Trustees regularly meets the Trust's investment advisersto discuss strategy and to review performance
Review of the Past Year
The Trust's income for the year, excluding donations, declined by 8.5% to L2.9 million
(2019:f3.2 million).
In 2020 the Trustees paid grants totalling F9.7 million (2019: F11.6 million); theyapproved 52 grants (2019: 72) amounting to F2.3million (2019:F8.9million). Many ofthe grants that Trustees approve are awarded on a conditional basis, and may bepayable over several years; accordingly such grants do not appear in full in theStatement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are awarded. Trusteesregard the level of grants actually paid during the year as a more helpful measure ofgrant-making activity and have used this measure of their activity within this Trustees'Report. They anticipate that the nature of grant-making of recent years will bemaintained for the foreseeable future.
As a proportion of grants paid, costs of administration were 6.3% (2019:5.7%).
The advent of COVID19 has had a considerable impact on all charitable sectors,especially those supported by Linbury, including arts, heritage and museums andsocial welfare. As with all Sainsbury Charitable Trusts, we have signed the jointstatement of support co-ordinated by the London Funders. This includes being flexiblearound reporting and payment dates, as well as support for adapting project activity.

THE LINBURY TRUST —5 APRIL 2020
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102)applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standardapplicable in the UK and Repulic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK GenerallyAccepted Practice.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with itemsrecognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to theseaccounts.
The Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102, registered in England.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a true and fair view and have departed from theCharities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and
fair view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) rather than Accountingand Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (revised 2005) which has beenwithdrawn.
In the opinion of the Trustees, there are no material uncertainties casting doubt on the going concernof the charity.
The principal accounting policies adopted are as follows:
a) Income Recognition
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Trust is entitled
to the income and the amounts can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
(i) Income is shown gross including tax deducted unless it is considered irrecoverable.
(ii) Dividends are included when receivable.(iii) Interest is recorded only when it is receivable.
b) Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.
(i) Grants for which there is a binding commitment are accounted for within the Statement ofFinancial Activities.
(ii) Other grants and grant instalments are accounted for in the Statement of Financial Activities whenconditions attaching to the grant are fulfilled.
(iii) Costs of administration relate in the main to the grant-making activity of the Trust and include ashare of the staff and office costs of the joint office of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, which
are allocated in proportion to time spent on Trust matters and grants paid.
Trustees consider that the separation of the costs of administration of the charity between supportand governance as required by Charities SORP (FRS 102), and particularly where these costs areimmaterial by reference to the total expenditure, adds little value to these accounts.
(iv) Any redundancy or other costs relating to termination of employment are recognised when theemployee or group of employees are given notice that they will be made redundant.
THE LINBURY TRUST —5 APRIL 2020
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
c) Investments
(i) Net realised and unrealised gains and losses are reflected in the Statement of Financial Activities.
(ii) Investments are shown at mid market value.
(iii) Partial disposals are accounted for using average book value.
(iv) Investments held in foreign currency are converted into sterling at the prevailing exchange rateand any foreign currency gains or losses on disposal are reflected in the Statement of Financial
Activities.
(v) Loans to beneficiaries represent loans made at less than a market rate of interest for charitablepurposes. They are included at the amount advanced less any repayments and impairments.
d) Loans to beneficiariesTrustees make loans in furtherance of the Trust's charitable objects. Any financial return is likely tobe below market rates but can be justified by the charitable impact.
e) Fund accountingThe Trustees do not distinguish between the income fund and expendable endowment fund in
managing the charity. Consequently the income fund is not separately disclosed as the movementson it are considered to be immaterial.
f) Financial InstrumentsThe Trust has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial
instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequentlymeasured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Financial assets held at amortisedcost comprise cash at bank and in hand, together with accrued interest and other debtors. Financialliabilities held at amortised cost comprise grants payable and accruals.
Investments, including bonds held as part of an investment portfolio, are held at fair value at thebalance sheet date, with gains and losses being recognised within income and expenditure.
At the balance sheet date the charity held financial assets at fair value of F112.2m (2019: f131.9m).
The Trust does not fundraise
g) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertaintyIn the application of the charity's accounting policies, which are described above, Trustees arerequired to make judgements, estimates, assumptions about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptionsare based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual
results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions toaccounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision
affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects thecurrent and future periods.
In the view of the Trustees, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affectingassets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their
carrying amounts in the next financial year.
