Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the Sthiemenl of Trustees Respon8ibilitie%, the Trustee% are Tesponsible for the preparation of the fmancial statements which give a true and fair view, and for 8uch internal control as the Trustees detennine is necessary lo enable ihe prepardlion 0£ fmancial statementq that are free from rnaterial misstatement. wh¢ther due to fraud or ermr. In preparing the fll]an¢ial statements. Ihe Truslees are responsible for &88es$ing the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing> as applicable, matters rela*d to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless ihe Trnstees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic a]ternative but to do so. Our responsibilities for the Ydudit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the flllancial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's report 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 al'ay8 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 r¢asonably be eXpted to influence the econon]ic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances on non-compliance with laws and regu]ations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatem¢nts in respecl of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting iegUlaritieS, including fraud is detailed below: We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frdmework within which the Charity operates. focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the detern]ination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial slatements. lThe laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Charities Aci 2011 and the Charitie8 StatLment uf Recomrncndcd Practice (SORP). Wc identificd the gre#t&8t riqk of matCTial impact on the financial statement from iTregularities, including fraud, to be the override of controLg by management and thc complcteness of income. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquiries of management about thcir ovm idcntification and asse%srnent of the risks of irregularities, sample testing of journals and reviewing accounting egtim8te.8 for bi4, rcading Minutes of those charged with governance and designing audit proc¢dures to test the timing of income. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit. there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have dctected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and perfornied our audit in accordance with aOuntIng standards. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be eXpeCd lo detect non- omplian¢e with al laws and regulations. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the fU]ciaL stafrments is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibilities.

Expenditure Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and thc amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditlwe on charitable activities is incurred on direclly underlaking the activities which further the groups objectives, as well as any support ¢osts. Grants payable are Charged in the year when payment is made or an uncondittonal offer is made. Grants offered subject to Conditions which have not been niet at the year end are noted wiihin the reserves note a as a commitment, but not accrned as expendithre.

THE EIUC WRIGHT CHARITABLE TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED for the Year Ended 31 Deeember 2023 ACCOUNTING POLICIES- eontinued BAsis of eonsolidation The consolidated fmanGial statements include the fmancial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertakings mad¢ up to 31 December 2023. A subsidiary is an entity that is conlrolled by ihe Charity. The re%ults" of subsidiary undertakings are included in the consolidated slatement of fjnancial activities from the date that control comvnences until the date that control ceases. Control is established when the Charity has the power to govem tbe operating and fmancial policies of all entity so as to obtain benefits from its aclivities. In assessing control, the Henmcad Limited group of companies referred to as Group, takes into consideration potential voting rights that are currcntly exercisable. The Henmead Limited group of companies is controlled by the Charity. onscquently the gross income and expenditure from its operations are presented on the Statement of Financial Activitie5 for both the current and the comparative period. An a&8ociate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial polici&s of the entity. Significance influence is presumed to exist when the inveslor holds between 20Q/o and 50 % of the equity voting rights. A joint venture is a contractual arrangement undertaking in which the Group exercises joint control over the operating and financial policies of the entity. Where the joint venthre is Caled out through an entity, it is treated as a joinily controlled entity. The Group's share of the profits less losses of associates and of jointly controlled entities is included in the consolidated profit and loss account and its interest in their net assets is recorded on the balance sheet using the equity method. Ivhere there is no obligation. commitment or guarantee by the group to fund the joint venture operations or make payments on behalf of the investees and there is no iniention to in the fUre, then the share of net liabilities recognised in the group consolidated balance sheet is restricted to the value of the investment made by the group. Ivhere a group company is party to a joint venture which is not an entity, Ihal company accounts directly for its share of the income ld expenditure, assets, liabilities and cash flows. Such arnngements are reported in the consolidated financial statements on the same basis. Basis of preparing thc financial statcmcnt5 In the consolidated financial stateinents, investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates are caiTied at cost less impainnent. In the accounts of the TrusL the inveslments in subsidiaries are carried at Net Asset Value. Turnover Turnover in Tespcct of tradinbT artivitic% 1% included in "other income" within income on the Statement of Financial Activitie8. Turnover iq stated net of VAT. In re.8pect of contracting activities, rn0ver represents the value of work done in the year including estimates of amounts not invoices and adjustments rclating to prior years which have bcen agreed during the year. In respect of the commewial development activities, tumov¢r represenls the sale of property recognised on exchange. With regard to fonvard funded ¢ommer¢ial schemes, revenue is recordcd equivalent to the level of costs incurred. In respect of the residenlial development activity turnover is recognised on complelion of propety sales. In respect of the Public Private Partnership and management activities turnover represents the value of services supplied during the year. Rental income is recognised on a straight-line basis over ihe associated lease tern]. All amounts are derived within the United Kingdom. Page 19

Basic finanelal instruments Trade and Other debtors / creditors Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Trade and other creditors are recognised initially at transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition they 8re measured at amortised c08t U8ing the effective interest method, less any impaimient losses in the case of trade debtors. If the arrangemcnt conslilutes a Fancing transaction, for example if payment is deferred beyond norn1 business ternis, then it is measured at the present value of tUre payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Interest-bearin , borrowin s classified as basi¢ financial instruments Interest-bearing bom)wings are recogni8ed initially at the present value of fijtyre payments discounted at a market rale of interest. Subsequent to initial recognition. interesi-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised Cost using the etyective interest method, less any impairnlent losses. Investments in refer¢n¢¢ and ordina shares Investments in equity instruments are m¢asured initially at fair value, which is nonnally the transaction price. Transaction costs are excluded if the inv¢stments are subsequently measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition investments ihat can be measured reliably are measured at fair value with changes recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. Other invesiments are measured at Cost less impainnent in the Statement of Financial Activities. Cash and $h e uivalenLs Cash and cash equivalentt4 comprise cash balances and call deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on detnand and forni an integral part of the Charity's cash Tnanagcment are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purFK)4e only of the cash flow statement. Finance lease debtor4 At the commencemcnt of the lease terni, a finance lease is recorded in the balance sh¢et as a receivable, at an amount equal to th¢ net investment in the lease. The net investment in a lease is the gross inve%tmcnt in the lease discount at the interest rate implicit in the lease. The gross investm¢nl in the lease is thc aggregate of: The minimum lease paym¢nt8 receivable under a fUnCe lease. and Any unguaranteed residual value accruing to ihe company. Initial direct costs (Costs that are incremental and directly attributable to negotiating and arranging a lease) are included in the initial measurement of the fmance lease receivable and reduce the income recognised over the lease terni. Finance income IS Tecogni8ed based on a pattern reflecting a conslant periodic rate of rern on the net investment outstanding in respect of the fmance lease. Page 20

Subsequent to inilial recognilion other financial instnmients are measured at fair value with changes T¢¢ognised in the Ststement of Financial Activities except as follows: investments in equity instrLunents Ihat are not publicly traded and whose fair value cannot otherwise be measured reliably sIll be measured at Cost less impainnent; and hedging instrnments in a designated hedging relationship shall be recognised as set out overleaf. Derivative financial instruments and hed in Within the Trust no derivative financial insttvments exist however, the below represents those derivative financial instrnments that occur in the Henmead group accounts and are included in the Trust accounts on Consolidation. Derivative financial instruments are recognised at fair value. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss. However, where d¢rivatives qualify for hedge accounting, recognition of any resultant gain or loss depends on the nature of the item being hedged (see below). 1.1 l Hedge a¢¢ounting Fair value hed Within the Ttusl no fair value hedges exist however, the below represents those fair value hedges that occur in the Henmead group accounts and are included in the Tnt accounts on consolidation. Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variability in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised fmn commitment, all Changes in the fair value of the d¢rivativ¢ are rLxognised immediaiely in the Statement of Financial Activities. The carrying value of the hedged item is adjusted by the change in fair value that is attributable to tlje risk being hedged (even if it is nonnally carried at ost or amortised cost) and any gains OT losses on remeasurement are r¢cognised immediately in th¢ income statement {even if those gains would nornllY be recognised directly in reserves). If hedge accounting is discontinued and the hedged fjnancial asset or liability has not been derecognised, any adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged item are amortised into th¢ Statement of Financial Activities using the eifective interest method over the remaining life of the hedged ifrm. Cash flow hed es Within the Trust no cash flow hedges exist however, tjie below represents those cash flow hedges ihat o¢¢ur in the Henmead group accounts and are included in the Trust accounts on consolidation. Where a derivative fllwicial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variabAIIty in cash flows of a recognised asset or liability> or a highly probable forecast Irdnsaction, the effeciive part of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrnment is recognL8ed directly in other comprehensive income. Any ineffective portion of tl)e hedge is recognised immediately in the Statement of Financial Activities. For Cash flow hedge5, where the forecast transactions resulted in tl)e recognition of a non-financial asset or non- fllwicial liability, th¢ hedging gatn or loss recognised in other re¢ognised losses is included in the initial Cost or other carrying amount of the asset or liability. Alternatively, when the hedged item is recognised in profit or loss the hedging gain or loss is reclassified to the Statement of Financial Activilies. When a hedging instnunent expires or is sold, tern]inated or exercised, or the entity discontinues designation of the hedge relaiionship bui the hedged forecast transaction is still eAted to occur, the cumulative gain or loss at thai point remains in equity and is recognised in accordance with the above policy when the transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer expected lo lake place, the cumulative unrealised gain OT loss recognised in equity is recognised in the income slalement immediately. Page 21
THE ERIC WRIGHT CHARITABLE TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED for the Year Ended 31 Deeember 2023 ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued 1.12 Tangible red assets Tangible fixed assets are stated at C05t less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairn)ent losses. Where parts of an item of tangible fjxed assets have diiferent useful lives, they are accounted for as separale items of tangible fixed assets, for example land is treated separately from buildings. Leases in which the entity assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of owncrship of the leased asset are classified as fmance leases. All other leases are c1&89ified as operating leases. Leas¢d as8ets acquired by way of finance lease aTe stated on initial recognition at all amount equal to the loweT of their fair value and the present value of the minimum l¢ase payment5 at incq)tion of the lease, including any increments]I costs directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the leasc. At initial recognition a finance lea8c liability is recognised equal io the fair value of the leased asset or, if lower, the present value of the minimuni lease payments. The present value of the minimum lease paymenL% is calculated using the interest ratc implicit in the lease. Lease payments are accounted for as descTibed below. The company assesses at each reporting date whether tangible fed assets (including those leased under a rmance lease) are impaired. Depreciation is charged to the Ststement of Financial Activities on a strdight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of eacli part of an item of tangible f]xed assets. Leased assets are depre¢iafrd over the shorter of the lease tern] and their usefvl lives. Land is not depreciated. The estimated use1 lives are as follows.. Freehold buildings Leasehold land and buildings - Plant, machinery and scaffolding - Fixtures and fjttings Motor veliicles Computer equipment 40/0 on cost 40/0 on cost 15 /0 on reducing balance 15 /0 on rUcIng balance 250/0 on reducing balance 330/0 on ¢ost 1.13 Business combinatlons Business combinations are accounted for using the purch&8c method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transf¢ed to the entity. At the acquisition date, the group recognises goodwill as.. - the fair value of the consideration (excluding contingent Consideration) transfeTrd- plus - estimated amount of contingent ¢onsideration (see below}" plus - the fair value of the equity instruments issued- plus - directly aitributable transaction costs. less the nel recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilitiC8 and ¢ontingent liabilities assumed. Consideration wliich is contingent on future events is recognised based on the estimated amount if the conlingenl consideration is probable and can be measurcd reliably. Any subsequent changes to the amount are trealed as an adjustment to the Cost of the acquisition. FRS 102.35 granted certain exemption% from the full requirements of FRS 102 in the transition period. The Group elected not to restate bu%iness combinations that t(M)k placc prior to l January 2014. In respect of acquisitions prior to l January 2014, goodwill is included on th¢ basi8 of its deemed cos¢ which represents the amount recorded under old UK GL4P. Intangible assets previolIY included in goodwill, are not recognised separately. Page 22

Intangible assets relate to computer software which is ststed at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life which is 10 years. 1.15 Stock and Ivork in progress Stock and work in progress is slated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes all direct expenditure and an appropriate proportion of fed and variable overheads. 1.16 IDvestment property Investment properties are properties which are held either to earn rental income or for capital app[latIOn or for both. Inveslment properties are recognised initially at cost. Subsequellt to initial recognition investment properties whose fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort are held at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities in the period that they arise. and no depreciation is provided in respect of investment properties applying the fair value model. 1.17 Construction contract debtors Within tlie Trust accounts no construction contract debtors exist however, the below represents those Construction cotttract debtors that occur in the subsidiary accounts. Amounts recoverable on long tern] contracls represents the gross unbilled amount for contract work perforn]ed to date. They are measured at cost plus profit recognised to date (see the revenue accounting policy) less a provision for foreseeable lo%$ and less progress billings. Variations are included in contract revenue when they are reliably rneasurable and it is probable that the customer will approve the variation itself and the revenue arising from ihe variation. Claims are included in contract revenue only when they are reliably measurable and negotiationb have reached an advanced Stage such that it is probable that the customer will accepl the claim. Cost includes all expenditure reliltcd directly to specific projects and an allocation of fixed and variable overheads In¢u¢d in the entity'8 contracl a¢tivities based on nornlal operating capacity. Amounts recoverable on long terni contracts are presented as part of trade debtors in the balance sheet. If payments received from customers exceed the in¢ome re¢ognised. then the difference is presented as payments on account in the balan¢e sheet. Page 23
THE EIUC WRIGHT CHARITABLE TRUST 1¥40TES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued 1.18 Impairment excluding stocks, investment properties and deferred tax assets Financial assets includin Irade and other debtors A fmancial asset not carried at fair value through the Statement of Financial Activities is assessed at each reporting date lo deternjine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A fllwi¢ial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimat¢d fiiture ¢asb flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably. An impaim)ent loss in respect of a fman¢ial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between ils carying amount and the present value of the estimated fvture cash flows discounted al the asset's original effective inlerest rate. For fwancial insttvments measured at cost less impairnient, an impainnent is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount that the Company would re1ve for th¢ asset if it wer¢ to be sold at the reporting date. Interest on the impaired asset Continues to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. Impainnent losses are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impaimient loss to decrease, the decrease in impairnlent loss is reversed througb the Statement of Financial Activities. Non-financial assets Within the Trust accounls no non-fmancial assets exist however, the below represents those non-fllwicial assets that occur in the subsidiary accounts. The canying amounts of the entity's non-financial assets, other than investment propety, stocks and def¢ed tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to detennine whether there is any indication of impairnient. If any such indication exists, Éhen the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit 15 the gTeater of its value in use and its fair valu¢ less Costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax dis¢ount rate that reflects cuent market assessments of the time value of money and the risks gpe¢ifi¢ to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that canDot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from ¢ontinuing use that are largely independent of the Cash inflows of other &8sets or groups of assets (the "¢ash-generaling unit"). The goodwill acquired in a business combination, for the purFM)se of impairn]ent testing is allocated to cash-generdting units, or ("CGU") that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the Combination. For the puryose of g(K)dwill impainnent lesting, if goodwill cannot be allocated to individual CGUS or groups of CGUS on a non-arbitrary basis, the impairnient of goodwill is deterniined using the re¢overable amount of the acquired enlity in its entirety. or if it has been integrated then the entire group of entities into which it has been integrated. An impairment loss is recognised if the canying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimaled recoverable amount. Impainnent losses are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. Impairnient losses re¢ognised in respect of CGUS are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce ihe carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units} on a pro rata basis. An impairnient loss is reversed if and only if the reasons for the impairn]¢nt have ceased to apply. Impainnent losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decre&8ed or no longer exists. An impairnient loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the Carrying amount that would have been deterniined. net of depreciation or amortisation. if no impainnent loss had been reco]Sed.

Obligations for contribulions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss account in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. The Group operates a defined contribution pension s¢heme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Group in an independently administered fund. Th¢ amount charged to the Statement of Financial Activities represents the ¢ontributions payable to the scheme in respect of the a¢¢ounting period. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shoThTr as either other creditors or prepayments in the balance sheet. Defmed benefit lans Wiihin the Trust no defined benefit plans exist however, the below represents those defed benefit plans that occur in the Henmead group accounts and included in the Trust accounts on consolidation. A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The entity's net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future ben¢fit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and PTior periods. thai benefit is dis¢ounted to deiern]ine its present value. The entity delermin¢s the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability for the period by applying the discount rate as deterniined at the begim)ing of the annual period to the net defined benefit liability taking account of changes arising as a result of contributions and benefit payments. Tlie discount rate is the yield at the balance sheet date on AA credit rated bonds denominated in the currency of, and having MarilY dales apprOXinlIng to the tern]s of the entity's obligations.

ACCOUNTINC ESI"IMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (a) Key sources of estimation uncertainty in applying the Group's accounting policies Preparation of the fmancial statements requires the Trustees to make eslimates. The iten]s across tbe group statemenLs where these estimates have been made include: Contract lumover Amounts recoverable on contrdcts and rovi8ions Thc amount of profit atlributable to the stage of completion of a long-terni contract is recognised when the outcome of the contract can be forese¢n with reasonable certainly how¢v¢r ther¢ is inherent judg¢m¢nt in this ass¢$sment. Turnover for such contracts is stated by reference to the costs incurred as a proportion of the total anli¢ipated contract costs, less amounts recognised in previous years. Where the outcome cannot be reasonably foreseen. revenue is recognised lo the extent of costs expensed as incurred. Amounts recoverable on contracts represent the gros5 unbilled amount for contract work perfornied to date. Provision is made for any losses as soon as they are foreseen. The provisions are recognised ai the best estimat¢ of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. Life c cle rovision The Eric Wright Group has contractual obligations to maintain properties owned by LIFf entities and other ihird partles over the lives of those assets. The receipts are under Contract however the timing and quanturn of costs differs resulting iii a provision on the balance sheet. Due to the duration of the life cycle wntracts, there is uncertainty regarding the timing and extent of the costs required to maintain the assets and judgement is therefore required in order to assess sufficiency. Trade debtors Held within trade debtors are contract trade debtors that represent billed amounts for contract work perfonned to dale. Contract trade debtors are regularly reported and monitored to ensure the full amount is recovered. Provision is made for doubtful debts. Defect eriod vision During the prior year, new legi%ldtion was introduced which re&*ulted in an exlension to the limitation period within the Building Safety Act. This crealed the potential for tuturc liabililies on a small number of buildings which wer¢ constructed in the paqt 30 years. A provision for fvtute costs has been calculated based on the inforniation currently available. consequently £l.Om has bccn included within accruals. (b) Critical accounting judgements in applying the CJroup's aeeounting policies Certain critical accounting judgements {apart from thos¢ involving estimations included abov¢) in applying the Group's accounting policies are described below. Investment erl Inv¢stment Propenies are initially recognised at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition investment properties whose fair value can be m¢asured reliably are held at fair value. Whilst the investment properties are valued by external experts, there are a number of judgements adopted in respect of items such as yield and lease renewals which affect ihe overdll valuation. Loans to oint ventures Loans to join¢ ventures are initially re¢ognised at cost. The loans are reviewed annually for impainnent via a review of the joint ventures cash flow forecast. No impairn]ent is recognised as future trading and cash flow forecasts demonstrate the jOiDt ventur¢s have sufficient funds to meet repay the loans as they fall due. Page 27

Classification of financial instruinents Financial instrnments are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition financial insttuments are measured at fair value with changes recognised in the Statement of Financial Activitles. Where the financial instrnment falls under the classification of hedging instNments and is in a designated hedging relationship the effectiv¢ part of any gain or loss on the derivative fthancial illstruttjent Is recognised directly in othei gain% and lotises. Any ineffective FK)rtion of the hedge is recognised immediately in ihe Ststement of FillanLial Activitie+. The at4es5ment of hedge effectiveness requires judgement.
