Accounts

Donations Notwithstanding the recent improvement in the Fund’s financial position, donations are welcome, and, indeed, are likely to be needed if the Fund is to continue to provide adequate assistance in the current economic environment. Donations can be made under Gift Aid, which enables the Fund to reclaim basic rate tax on sums received from UK taxpayers, and provides a tax benefit to higher rate taxpayers. Furthermore, by virtue of the Fund’s charitable status, legacies are free of inheritance tax. Gifts would be very gratefully received by the Hon Treasurer, NR Rundle, at 9 Draycott Place, London SW3 2SE. Applications Enquiries from OAs should be addressed to the Hon Secretary, MRA Graham, at 59 Falcon Point, London SE1 9JB. Enquiries from pupils should be addressed direct to the Hon Secretary or through Messrs Keat or Llewelyn in the Common Room.

Year-end assets, including outstanding loans, rose during the year from around £109,000 to £127,000. In keeping with long established practice, outstanding loans are not included as an asset in the balance sheet, but are referred to in a note to the accounts. The Fund has not suffered any bad debts for many years and this conservative presentation will be kept under review. Of the year-end funds excluding loans, investments at market value accounted for £76,038 and cash and deposits for £28,291.
