Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund reported no income from donations or legacies in 2024, so there is no figure for that year.

Raising-funds spend from the charity's annual return, less any investment management costs, divided by its income from donations and legacies for the same accounts year. We don't show a figure when trading income is 10% or more of donations, because raising-funds spend also covers trading costs, such as running shops.
Legacies (gifts in wills) can swing a lot from year to year, which moves this figure. Trading income is not counted as donations. This is not a measure of impact or of how well the charity is run, and it is not part of the Clarity Score. How we calculate it.

Reported totals for 2024 compared with 2023. Changes can reflect the accounting period, restricted grants or restructuring as well as the charity’s work.

Evidence and interpretation
In 2024, reported income was £6,859,000 and expenditure was £651,000. Income exceeded expenditure by £6,208,000. This annual balance is not the charity’s available cash or unrestricted reserves.
Income fell 14.5% compared with 2023. Read the accounts notes for restricted grants, legacies and one-off receipts before treating the movement as a trend.

Look beyond the score
We have not added a source-checked programme outcome for this charity. That is a gap in this profile, not evidence that the charity has no impact. Its annual report may contain results that have not been assessed here.
Reported grants to institutions: £0 (2024-09-30). This is spending reported in the annual return, not a measure of beneficiary outcomes or an open grant opportunity. It may already be included in charitable expenditure. Check the source accounts.
Counts of services delivered describe activity. They do not by themselves establish lasting change, what would have happened without the programme, or cost-effectiveness. Results with different definitions, populations or years should not be ranked against each other.

Common questions about Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund's rating, finances, and Charity Commission status.
Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund scores 23 out of 100 (2 stars — Poor) on CharityCompare's Clarity Score, our independent read of its UK regulator filings. Around 0% of its spending goes to charitable activities (3-yr avg) and its accounts are missing. That reflects how transparent and financially healthy it looks on paper — it does not measure the real-world impact of its work, so treat it as one factor alongside the cause you care about. CharityCompare never tells you where to donate.
The register data used for this profile lists Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund as a registered charity (charity number 1178343). Verify it on the official register: https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/charity-details/?regId=1178343&subId=0. Check the current entry and the identity of anyone requesting money. Registration does not verify a particular appeal; Clarity Score summarises filing transparency, not programme impact.
Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund's charity number is 1178343. Check that number on the official register (Charity Commission, OSCR or CCNI) or this CharityCompare profile before you donate — scammers sometimes reuse real numbers on fake appeals.
Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund scores 23 out of 100 on CharityCompare (2 stars — Poor). The Clarity Score (method v1.1) sums four pillars from UK regulator filings: Accountability & Transparency (40 pts), Financial Health (30), Financial Efficiency (20), and Community Support (10). Stars use the same bands as those labels — 90+ is 5★ Exceptional. It is not an impact ranking.
CharityCompare does not host public user reviews for Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund. Instead you get a filing-based Clarity Score, cause spend, reserves and red flags such as late accounts (3 red flags on this profile: insufficient trustee oversight; poor filing history; high fundraising costs). For formal complaints about a charity, contact the Charity Commission, OSCR, CCNI or the Fundraising Regulator as appropriate.
Raise it with Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund first, using the complaints contact on its own website (cazenovecharities.com). If you are unhappy with how it handled a complaint about fundraising, the Fundraising Regulator covers England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the Scottish Fundraising Adjudication Panel covers Scotland. Serious concerns about how the charity is run, such as misuse of funds or risk to the people it helps, go to the Charity Commission.
Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, 0% of Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund's total spending went to charitable activities (3-yr avg across disclosed years). That is the closest official figure to "how much of your donation reaches the cause" — it is an average across all spending in the filing, not a pound-by-pound breakdown of an individual gift.
Across the recent disclosed accounts used for this score, fundraising costs were about 100% of total expenditure and fundraising plus separately reported governance figures amount to about 100% of expenditure (2022–2024, disclosed years); these categories can overlap, so this is not a distinct total of all administration costs at Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund. The register does not show individual salaries; senior pay is disclosed in the trustees' annual report and accounts.
Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund reported no income from donations or legacies in its 2024 accounts, so there is no cost to raise £1 for that year. Legacies can swing from year to year, and trading income such as shop sales is not counted as donations. This is a cost figure from the accounts, not a measure of impact, and it is not part of the Clarity Score.
Sutl Cazenove Charity Ucits Fund reported £6.9m total income in its 2024 accounts, based on UK regulator filings. Five-year trend: declining.
