THE STANLEY MEWS COMMUNITY TRUST
TRUSTEES. REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year 1 April
2024 to 31 March 2025.
Objectives and Activities
a. POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the charity as set out in the Constitution are as follows:
The principal activity of the charity is to relieve the material and educational needs of people with learning
difficulties who have special educational needs or are in some other way disadvantaged.
The trustees may, in the pursuit of this principal, establish sheltered workshops, provide suitable accommodation
and care, and provide bursaries and scholarships for educational training for people with leaming difficulties.
b. ACTIVITIES FOR ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES
The charity achieves its objectives by providing safe and secure accomodation and low level, day to day support
to aid the wellbeing and happiness of their beneficiaries.
During this year we have had several meetings to discuss expanding Stanley Mews and the best way to go
forward as we are at full capacity with tenants and have enough staff to cover the workload.
During these discussions it was agreed the best way forward would be to increase capacity by building a second
story extension to the rear flats. It was also intended to tarmac the entrance to Stanley Mews to make this look
nicer and for safety concerns.
We have held weekly activities in the day room for all tenants to participate in, such as coffee momings, arts and
crafts and film aftemoons. We held a Kings coronation party which all the tenants enjoyed and got involved with
making decorations and crowns to wear on the day.
We have had work done in the rear courtyard so this has been out of action for BBQS, however tenants have still
been able to get together in the day room and socialise.
MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN TO FURTHER THE CHARITY'S PURPOSES FOR PUBLIC BENEFIT
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The trustees confirm that they have
referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the
association's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
The trustees cary out these objectives by providing people with leaming difficulties with a safe and secure
environment in which to live and be supported.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Achievements and perfonnance
. KEY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
The charity had a deficit for the year of £4,510 (2024 - £36,439 surplus).
The Balan￿ Sheet shows net assets at 31 March 2025 of £960,416 (2024 £964,926). Of this balance £NIL
(2024 £NIL) is restricted funds. Included within net assets is freehold propety held at net book value of
£709,688 (2024 - £729.339).
b. REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES
The Stanley Mews Community Trust receives referrals from social services and sometimes from people who
contact the charity directly. The charity then carries out a review and an interview with the potential applicant to
assess their needs. They are then offered accommodation and support and a package is compiled to support
the individual concemed. Many support packages are prepared with a long term view, however they are
viewed annually by social workers.
During the year the accommodation provided by the charity was fully occupied at all times and remains so now.
Financial review
a. GOING CONCERN
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate
reSoUr￿S to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt
the going concem basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going
concem basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.
b. RESERVES POLICY
The charity had current assets at the Balance Sheet date of £255,500 (2024 £238,016). The annual
expenditure of the charity was £211,057 (2024 - £180,072) and the trustees therefore feel there are adequate
levels of reserves to ensure the smooth operation of the activities of the charity for at least the next 12 months.
At any point in time the ratio of reserves to expenditure will vary due to the timing of events and transactions. The
trustees propose to maintain the charitys unrestricted reserves to cover short term future operational
expenditure.
Structure, governance and management
. CONSTITUTION
The charity is controlled by its goveming document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
The charity is govemed by a constitution dated 30 May 1993 as amended by a supplemental trust deed dated 7
December 2000. The Stanley Mews Community Trust is registered as a Charity number 1023745 with the
Chanty Commission.
The charity govems the appointment of trustees.

TRUSTEES. REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
b. METHOD OF APPOINTMENT OR ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the
tenns of the Trust deed.
Trustees are normally referred to the charity by word of mouth. Potential trustees are subsequently invited to a
meeting to ascertain how they would be able to support the The Stanley Mews Community Trust. If it is felt that
the person would be a good fit and all current trustees agree, the new trustee is appointed.
c. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE AND DECISION MAKING
The charity currently has seven trustees who oversee the day to day operation of the charity. During the year to
31 March 2025 they employed five people to assist with the running of the actsvities of the charity. The trustees
meet regularly throughout the year to discuss the ongoing progress and finances of the charity.
TRUSTEES. RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees, report and the financial statements in accordance with
applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting

each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the chanty and of the incoming
resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the
Trustees are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

THE STANLEY MEWS COMMUNITY TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been
prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities:
Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance
with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)
(effective 1 January 2019),, Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, and the Charities Act 2011.
Under FRS 102 the assets and liabilties are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value
unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
The Stanley Mews Community Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
1.2 Income
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the
income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
1.3 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic
benefit to a third paty, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in
settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by
activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs.
including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributsble to a single
activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity
and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those
acts"vities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the
basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity
and indude project management carried out at Headquarters. Governance costs are those incurred
in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory
requirements.
Charitable activities and Govemance costs are costs incurred on the charitys operations, including
support costs and costs relating to the govemance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
1.4 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying
value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairrnents. Impairment
losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated
residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold property
Fixtures and fittings
Computer equipment
2 % straight line
33 % rounding balance
25 % rounding balance

ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured
reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
1.6 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered.
Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.7 Cash at Bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short
maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar
account.
1.8 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past
event. it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the
amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the
charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as adVan￿d payTnents
for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the
amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material,
the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount
rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within
interest payable and similar charges.
1.9 Financial Instruments
The charity only 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
subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.10 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in
fvrtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other
purposes.
