TRUSTEES' REPORT

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 July 2020

STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee not having a share capital and was incorporated on 27 July 1992. The liability of the members, in the event of the winding up of the company, is limited to £1. The company is established under a Memorandum of Association which sets out its objects and is governed by its Articles of Association.

The trustees who served during the year were:

L M Carey (resigned 2 March 2020)

C J Chacksfield (resigned 4 August 2020)

M Hughes

A G Levy

S Martin (resigned 17 November 2019)

C Meakings

G A Meakings

J Wilson

The trustees of the charity are also directors for the purpose of company law. Trustees are appointed by a resolution of the council or by ordinary resolution of the company.

The trust is run by a manager who is responsible to the trustees. The trustees meet at least quarterly during the year.

The trustees make a formal assessment of the major risks to which the charity is exposed on an annual basis. They are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to such risks.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The trust's objects as set out in the Memorandum of Association are the relief of suffering and in particular the care of the mentally handicapped. The trust has a Christian ethos which aims to provide homes for life for adults with learning difficulties. Within this framework, our aim is that all our residents should lead happy and fulfilling lives by providing opportunities to develop their skills, maximise their independence and to interact socially within the local community. Currently, the trust runs one home caring for five residents with varying degrees of disability.

As in previous years, the main objective of the year focused upon maintaining the well-being of the residents whilst maximising each resident's capabilities to their fullest potential and the acquisition of additional property to expand the charity.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit.

TRUSTEES' REPORT

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

This year has been a year of progress for the trust, having purchased a second property about one hundred metres from Cavendish House, which means in due course the trust will be able to offer another five residents a place to call home. It is anticipated that it will be ready for occupation by the end of January 2020.

As always the trust continues to provide an environment in which the residents are encouraged to lead rewarding and fulfilling lives, to which end they all take part in numerous activities of their own choosing each week.

The trust actively seeks opportunities for the residents to participate in activities within the local community. The residents are part of a local drama group putting on regular productions. They are also involved in helping at the trust's own shop, which has been part of the village for many years. They also help in commercial enterprises including a local shop and plant nursery.

In recent years residents have been encouraged to spread their wings and now their activities include a number of sporting activities including going to the gym, playing football in a disabled league, and going swimming.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year under review, the charity had net income of £43,948 (2019 - £36,816). General funds are maintained at a level approximating to six months charitable expenditure and are felt sufficient to cover any short term additional costs in line with the potential changes in the funding for the type of care the charity provides.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees should follow best practice and:

The trustees are responsible for maintaining 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 2016. The trustees 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.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities and in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

The report was prepared in accordance with the special provisions within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

This report was approved by the Board of Trustees on 30 November 2020

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ACCA .

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS STATEMENT

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
