  1. Charity resilience and effectiveness 3.1 Organisatlonal Impact Durlng 2024-25, ourTrustee Board made a decision to close our Furniture Warehouse retail oper8tion to mitigate the spiralling costs of maintainingthis activlty and safeguard the Charity's flnancial stability.

Community-based staff continued to work in older people's homes and other community venues. 3.2 Fin8n¢i81 impa¢t and recovery Without a doubt, some of our income continued to be adversely affected by the continuing impact of the pandemic, and the downturn in unrestricted income from our Furniture Warehouse and fundraising events. On a more positive note, we were successful in attracting sufficient funding to support the delivery of our core services such as the Information and Advice Service, Car8 & Support Services and Engage Rotherham community activity. enabllng us to provide the necessary support to older people in Rotherham. In addltlon, we were successful in securing continuation funding for our existing contracts with local statutory agencies to enable us to provide benefits advice and maintain our Hospital Aftercare Service. Successful outcomes in some ofthese work streams have meant providing us with more longer term contract security for next year and beyond. Despite these successes, we antlClP8t8d 2024-25 would be B challengingyearfinancially and we acknowledged we may need to draw on 80me of the reserves we had accrued In the previous years to ensure we continued to provide the best possible 8UPPOrt to older people in Rotherham and create a stable foundation forthe future.

arEn 5.2 Reserves Policy The Board estimates the levels of reserves that are suff icient to: allow for time for re-organisation in the event of downturn In Income or asset values protect ongoing work programs end allow Age UK Rotherh8m Ltd to meet its objectives Risks and issues considered by the Board of Trustees in making this judgment on the level of unrestricted reserves include the: likelihood of a downturn of any income streams period of time required to downsize Age UK Rotherham Ltd operations potential decrease in the value of assets and investments and requirement for a reasonabl8 level of working capital The target level of unrestrlcted reserves is estimated at the equivalent of 2-3 months general expenditure, this being in the range of £90k- £120K.

Plans for the future 6.1 Strateglc Plan During 2024-25 we continued to deliverto our Strategic Plsns, whilst remaining agile to respond to the uncertainties and changes in the environment in which we are working. Trustees and Senior M8n3gers regularly scrutinised our plans to m8n8ge and mitigate risk and support implementation and review of this plan in year. Context of tho plan Local older people's concerns and their preferred solutions remain central to our plans. However, changes to the circumstances and priorities of older people and the potential for these to change agaln mean that we need to remain agile and flexible to meet immediate and future needs. Whilst our level of reserves remained challenging in 2024-25, our 8bility to take risks and the Board ofTrustees' risk appetite will continue to be focussed on malntaining delivery and rebuilding reserves over the next 2 years. Our track record and expertise in Inte￿entIonS th8t support public policy objectives e.g. 'reduce, prevent and delay, and the need forformal care and issues relatingto hospital admission and discharge will continue to be capitalised on, although there is now more competition for this work than in the past. Demographic changes in Rotherh8m plus the impact of the cost of living crisis are likelyto produce more demand on Age UK Rotherham, bLrt not necessarily more resources. We need to ensure we are working as efficiently as possible as well as ensuringwe are not taking on any additional work resulting from changes in our br08der environment without any associated additional resources.
