STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Trust's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)".
Objectives and activities
Objects and aims
The objects and aims of the Trust are to provide welfare services to resident and non-resident autistic adults.
Objectives, strategies and activities
The Trust via its Chief Executive and senior management team monitors, evaluates and where appropriate adopts new approaches and interventions as and when required. When vacancies arise the Trust assesses potential candidates in line with the admissions policy and procedure and determines whether services and support can be delivered to that individual as required.
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Trust should undertake.
Public benefit
The Trust is established for the provision of welfare and care services to autistic adults. This is primarily achieved through care of autistic adults through registered care homes. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives, and in planning activities and setting policies for the year ahead.
Achievements and performance
The Trust continued to deliver services during the financial period 2021-22 in line with significant restrictions and requirements imposed in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The longer term impact of the pandemic is yet to be determined, however, the Trust is grateful for and acknowledges the flexibility, commitment, and dedication of all staff, families, and Trustees in ensuring client safety and wellbeing was prioritised and maintained so effectively.
During the year the Trust provided care for 33 full-time residents. It has updated several of its policies in line with current regulations and best practice requirements.
The Trust has continued to review, and where possible improve, the terms and conditions of employment for staff in order to attract and retain sufficient numbers of high quality individuals.
The Trust recognises that environmental factors have a significant impact on the well being of all clients, and has determined to improve the quality of all accommodation across site in line with improved autism understanding and best evidence-based practice. This is a long term commitment requiring a long term fund raising strategy. The nature of long term fund raising is that it is not restricted to financial periods. The Trustees believe the overall performance year on year to be satisfactory. The fundraising performance is considered satisfactory.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
In responding to the changing requirements and expectations of potential new clients and commissioners, the Trust continues to revise its Development Plan to take account of the growing need to provide personalised and individualised single person accommodation within its range of services.
Three new single person facilities have now been completed and one is in use. Further admissions will be made when staffing levels allow. These bespoke facilities will enable the Trust to support additional clients within person-centred, autism-friendly environments.
Volunteers
The organisation is grateful for the ongoing support by volunteers from The Rotary Club of Nailsworth, who continue to offer support for horticultural projects despite continuing restrictions due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
Details of donations received are shown in note 2 to the accounts.
The Trust has limited investments which were placed on short term deposit without taking significant risk. The fund is retained to protect against unforeseen operating circumstances and for use in the ongoing development.
Staffing
The Trust provides long term residential care services and as such seeks to maintain high occupancy levels at all times. Quality of care with financial stability are key measures. In addition to independent assessments, key performance indicators are employee absence rates and staff turnover. In common with many employers in care and other sectors, recruitment remains a significant challenge. This is an area in which the Trustees and management team have and continue to take positive actions. The Trustees are confident that an excellent career package is offered to new and existing employees with retention rates remaining high.
Consideration of the impact of Coronavirus
At the date of these accounts 31 March 2022 there had been little impact from Coronavirus on the Trust. Since that time the Trust has taken extensive steps to keep Stroud Court free from Covid 19. Part of the impact has been to restrict access from the outside and keep residents on site. The extensive facilities available at Stroud Court, including over 17 acres of secure grounds, have been invaluable in helping to maintain activities and provide outdoor access to all of our clients. Where possible the use of agency staff has been curtailed to ensure only known members of staff are on site, and staff movement between residential facilities has been minimised. Many staff have supported us by not taking leave - the impact of this will be delayed as we will need to make suitable arrangements towards the end of the year to allow staff to take adequate time off to recoup and recover from the stresses of the adjusted working practices necessary to protect clients and colleagues.
The potential financial impact is loss of income should a resident die. We do not anticipate this to be a significant risk at this time however as the management team maintain an ongoing system of identifying and processing potential new clients and are currently aware of 17 likely candidates should a placement become available. The actual financial impact so far has been increased costs relating to personal protective equipment and sanitising products. Some Local Authorities have provided additional income to cover the additional costs. Given the strong financial status of the Trust no immediate impact on the ability to maintain service delivery and remain financially viable is anticipated.

STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The impact on fund raising from trusts for ongoing development work is that, inevitably, some trusts have turned their focus away from capital projects to provide more immediate help as a response to Coronavirus. Despite this, some capital funds have been secured.
Going concern
In response to the covid pandemic, the Trust has exercised caution in its expenditure and focussed its attention on activities essential to the safe operation of the service. Additional costs related to covid-19 have been considered in preparing the 2022-23 budget. Costs incurred on infection control measures have been partly recovered through central government covid-19 relief schemes. The national impact of the covid pandemic will lead to further pressure on public spending in 2022-23 and beyond, and this will limit the ability of local government to fund services to the required level. We are confident however, given the specialised nature of the services at Stroud Court, that demand for placements will remain high and therefore future revenue streams will not be significantly compromised.
At the time of writing, the cost of living, particularly oil, electricity and gas, has risen significantly. The Trust is investigating the opportunities offered from renewable energy sources, particularly solar to take advantage of the south facing aspect. This should mitigate the costs longer term. In the short to medium term the Trust is well placed to manage the rising costs.
We acknowledge the historic but increasing difficulties with recruitment faced by all adult social care sector providers and have reviewed and adjusted our recruitment and retention strategy accordingly. This issue is likely to remain an on-going concern and in order to attract and retain appropriate levels of suitably experienced and qualified staff, specific improvements to remuneration and employment terms and conditions have been implemented including increased enhancements for unsocial hours, greater flexibility in rota patterns, clear grade progression pathways, and improved sickness support and benefits. The Trust believes staff are its most precious asset and will at all times seek to nurture, support, and protect its workforce wherever possible.
Financial review
Policy on reserves
Reserves are set aside to provide financial stability and to support long term strategic aims of the Trust. The Trustees have identified two levels of reserves as being necessary.
The Trustees consider it prudent that unrestricted reserves should be sufficient to cover short term working capital. £750,000 will be retained in line with Stroud Court Community Trust's Reserves Policy Statement to cover three months operational activity.
As mentioned under achievements above. The Trust has undertaken to improve the quality of accommodation for existing residents and to develop personalised and individualised single person accommodation to reflect current requirements and expectations. This is an expensive process and the expenditure will over time bring reserves back down in line with the policy.
Details on reserves and funds are set out in notes 19 and 20.
Custodian Trustees
The company acts as custodian Trustees on behalf of client funds. The money is held in independent bank accounts and details are shown in note 22 to the accounts.

STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Principal funding sources
Fees are obtained from local authorities and primary care trusts. Fees are used to fund the day to day operations of the Trust. The Trust does not allocate donations to operational costs but always seeks to recover in full the cost of services from statutory purchasers. Donations and other income are used to enhance the quality of life of clients by providing funding for specific equipment, capital items and services that are not normally recoverable through fees.
The present level of funding and assets held are adequate to support the continuation of the Trust and the Trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory.
Major risks and management of those risks
Operations and finance
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Trust is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Trust and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to manage exposure to the major risks. A report is produced each year of the major risks, what the implications maybe, whether it is significant and who is responsible for monitoring it.
Staffing risk
As mentioned under going concern above, recruitment, retention and staffing generally is potentially a significant risk. The senior management team keep this under regular review and adjust remuneration and employment terms and conditions in order to attract and retain staff.
Credit risk
The Charity’s principal financial assets are bank balances and cash, trade and other receivables, and investments.
The Charity’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. The amounts presented in the balance sheet are net of allowances for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment is made where there is an identified loss event which, based on previous experience, is evidence of a reduction in the recoverability of the cash flows.
The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
The Charity has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.
Liquidity risk
In order to maintain liquidity to ensure that sufficient funds are available for ongoing operations and future developments, the Charity uses a mixture of long-term and short-term debt finance.
Further details regarding liquidity risk can be found in the Statement of accounting policies in the financial statements.

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also directors of Stroud Court Community Trust Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report (incorporating the strategic report and directors’ report) and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the income and expenditure, of the charitable company 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;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They 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.
In so far as the Trustees are aware:
-
there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditors are unaware; and
-
the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to make themselves aware of that information.
Auditor
The Trustees will submit a resolution to the next AGM that Burton Sweet Limited be re-appointed under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.
Small companies provision
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Stroud Court Community Trust Limited (the “Charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
This report is made solely to the Charity’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity’s members those matters we are required to state in them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity’s affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted out audit in accordance with international Standards in Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and out auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If based, on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report the fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees’ report (incorporating the strategic report and the directors’ report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Trustees’ report (incorporating the strategic report and the directors’ report) have been prepared in accordance with applicable law requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept;
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns;
-
certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial 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 always 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 reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
10
STROUD COURT COMMUNITY TRUST LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with directors and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the sector;
-
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements of the operations of the company, including the Companies Act 2006, taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance through the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
-
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud;
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
-
understanding the design of the charity’s remuneration policies.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
-
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in the accounting policies were indicative of potential bias; and
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and
-
reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators and the company’s legal advisors.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

Income from donations is included in income when these are receivable, except as follows:
I. When donors specify that donations given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods;
II. When donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the pre-conditions have been met.
Legacies are included on a receivable basis where the exact amount and certainty of receipt are known.
Investment income is included on a receivable basis.
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure includes attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.
Raising funds
Raising funds are those costs incurred in seeking donations and raising awareness of the charity's activities.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. Governance costs are included within charitable activity costs.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any discounts due.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash at bank and cash 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.
Creditors
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.
Stock
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Designated funds form part of unrestricted funds and have been identified as being for particular purposes by the Trustees. They are not restricted and can be undesignated at any time at the discretion of the Trustees.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in note 19 of the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The trust operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions to this scheme are charge to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they become payable.
The trust operated a defined benefit scheme, which is closed for new members. The scheme is part of the Gloucestershire County Council Pension Fund, which is a multi-employer scheme whereby the Trusts shares of the underlying assets and liabilities are identified at the date of the latest triennial valuation undertaken by the scheme's actuary. The scheme is accounted for as a defined benefit scheme in accordance with FRS102.
The scheme is funded and the assets are held separately from those of the Trust in separate Trustee administered funds. Pension scheme assets are measure at fair value and liabilities are measure on an actuarial basis. The actuarial valuations are obtained triennially and are updated at each balance sheet date. The amounts charged to operating results are the current service costs and gains and losses on settlements and curtailments. The service costs are included as part of staff costs. Past service costs are recognised immediately, the costs are recognised over the period until vesting occurs. The expected return on the assets and the interest cost are shown as a net finance amount. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in other gains and losses.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Trust's accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on the historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

1 Accounting policies (continued)
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
The Trustees have applied the actuarial assumptions in accounting for the multi-employer pension scheme.

15 Contingent Liability
By an agreement dated 5 August 1982, the Secretary of State for Health agreed that if, and so long as, Stroud Court is occupied and used by the Trust for the purposes of a residential community for autistic people, the Secretary of State will not require the Trust to repay the £160,000 loan and interest covenanted to be paid secured by way of a second charge on the property, Stroud Court, dated 5 August 1982.
It is considered by the Board that the property will remain a residential community for autistic people for the foreseeable future. The estimated interest accrued at 31 March 2022, for which no provision has been made in the financial statements as a result, amounted to £477,000 (2021 - £464,000).
The Trustees have considered the treatment of the loan during the year and although the repayment of the loan is possible there is no intention to change the purpose in which they use the property. For this reason it has been determined by the Trustees that it is more prudent to recognise the loan as a contingent liability.
