## **Structure, Governance & Management**
## **Governing document**
St Luke’s Trust Ltd is a company limited by guarantee with no share capital, governed by a memorandum and articles of association. It was incorporated on 13[th] May 1996, and registered as a charity on 12[th] June 1996.
## **Appointment of trustees**
Trustees are appointed by processes laid down in the articles of association. New trustees may be coopted by the Trustees to provide necessary skills to support the charity, and full appointment and routine re-election procedures are undertaken at annual general meetings.
## **Trustee induction and training**
Trustees are briefed on their legal obligations under company and charity law, the governing document, decision making processes and financial performance of the charity. We have begun to commission professional external training events, in order to ensure high standards of governance and awareness.
## **Organisation**
The trustees are responsible for the governance and administration of the charity. They meet quarterly, receive reports conveying the day to day life of the different activities, and decide matters of policies and procedures, and financial budgets and management.

## **DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES' REPORT** (Continued)
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Risk management**
The trustees have risk management strategies which comprise:
- A periodic review of risks the charity may face
- The establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate identified risks; these systems are developed by the trustees.
- Particular emphasis on health and safety policies and procedures, wide-ranging and adequate insurance cover, and protection of vulnerable adults from abuse
- Financial risk management by developing and reviewing our reserves policy
## **Objectives and activities**
The charity has as its main current aims the support and promotion of anthroposophical therapies, the support and personal development of adults with learning disabilities through Camphill community life in Gannicox House, the residential provision in partnership with Ruskin Mill trust, the running of Sunlands Kindergarten, and the management of the housing provision at Whittington House.
In the Therapy Centre, all rooms are let under business tenancies. New tenancies have been established for December 2025, and provision for funding a much needed sinking fund for refurbishment and maintenance work has been continued, through a service charge addition to the tenancies.
The housing provision for adults with learning disabilities, both in Gannicox and in the Ruskin Mill household, continues at full occupancy, with an extra tenanted room at Gannicox having been made available in April 2025, bringing the number of residents up to 10.
At Sunlands kindergarten, child numbers remain healthy, and the teaching team are working well together, under the supervision of a trustee.
In Whittington House, all flats are occupied. The Trust owns three of the flats, and undertook a small renovation project, providing guest space, part-time office use for the Trust, and a new domiciliary care office for Gannicox CIC. At the time of this meeting, the Trust is completing the purchase of a further flat, with the Camphill Village Trust surrendering the lease for Flat 6, at a consideration of £100,000.
The main objectives for the coming year are to support the therapeutic work in the St Luke's Therapy Centre, to further support the adult residential communities both at Gannicox House and in the Therapy Centre, to continue the effective management of the Kindergarten, and to continue the management of the housing provision at Whittington House.
The strategies employed to achieve the charity’s objectives are to:
- Support the medical-therapy work.
- Work closely with the Gannicox CIC and Ruskin Mill to ensure regulatory compliance with regard to the housing and care/support provision for the adults with learning disabilities in Gannicox.
- Ensure effective housing management across the Trust's property portfolio.
- Support the Kindergarten to continue delivering a high quality Steiner Kindergarten provision.
- Manage the leasehold development at Whittington House to promote the supported community life for the elderly

## **DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES' REPORT** (Continued)

## **Public benefit; achievements and performance**
Our approach to assessing public benefit comes from the statutory objective set for us by Parliament in the Charities Act, 'To promote awareness and understanding of the operation of the public benefit requirement'. The trustees are confident that the Trust provides clear benefits, without limiting detriment or harm, fully related to our aims. Furthermore, the beneficiaries are appropriate to our aims, and the opportunity to benefit is not unreasonably restricted within the beneficiary group.
Throughout the year, St Luke’s Trust supported its beneficiaries, within the charity objects, by:
- Supporting the Therapy Centre work by effective property management
- Maintaining therapy provision in the Therapy Centre by offering tenancies for therapists
- Maintaining effective property and tenancy management at Gannicox House
- Working in partnership with Gannicox CIC and liaising closely to develop service delivery and promote good relationships with funding and regulatory authorities
- Managing the residential provision at Whittington House
- Directly managing Sunlands Kindergarten
- Supporting the residential provision for young adults with complex needs with Ruskin Mill Trust
The trustees wish to note here the retirement of Piet Blok, who moved away during the year to be supported by his family following a debilitating fall. Piet supported the work of the Trust for many years, particularly with the Camphill community in Gannicox, and since 2012 as a trustee. We are grateful for his many years of service and support.
## **Financial Review**
## **General overview**
From the accounts, it will be seen that incoming resources for the year to 31 March 2025 were £386,587 [against £317,508 in 2023-24]. Resources expended were £335,614 [against £318,301 for 2023-24]. The revenue surplus was thus £50,973 [against a deficit of £793 for 2023-24]. Looking to the balance sheet, total assets less current liabilities were £1,888,295 [against £1,856,042 at 31 March 2024], and total net assets were £1,573,173 [against £1,522,200 at 31 March 2024].
## **Reserves policy**
The bulk of St Luke’s Trust’s income is based upon rental income from Gannicox House and from St Luke's Therapy Centre, lease rent from Ruskin Mill, service charges from Whittington House, and fees from Sunlands Kindergarten. Principle funding sources are Local Authority housing benefit, lease rent from Gannicox CIC and Ruskin Mill, Therapy Centre tenants, Nursery Grant, and Whittington leaseholders. As such, cessation of this funding would entail cessation of service provision, and our reserves policy acknowledges this; understanding that a large proportion of our expenditure would cease. Current assets less short term creditors were £261,294 at 31 March 2025 [against £195,547 at 31 March 2024], while monthly expenditure less depreciation was £25,176 [against £24,094 during 2023-24], which would thus allow for more than ten months’ normal expenditure, which we consider to be an appropriate reserve fund, as well as promoting further development for the charity. Long term loans are secured against our freehold property, whose value well exceeds loan levels even at the property’s historic cost; with a comfortable margin of safety should any such loans become difficult to service for any unforeseeable reason. As such, the trustees are content with current reserves, and will review them twice a year. Reserves are kept in deposit accounts with CCLA, to achieve capital preservation and a reasonable interest rate.

## **DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES' REPORT (Continued)**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Plans for future periods**
The main financial concerns for the charity will continue to be:
- to manage and maintain our range of properties, ensuring they enable the Trust to carry out its charitable objects for public benefit. This requires careful budget controls, liaison with those working in the properties, and both short and long term scheduling of building maintenance
- to maintain funding with our regulatory and funding authorities
- to maintain and further develop rental income; this will depend upon close attention to changes in Housing Benefit regulations, and their impact upon our funding
- to continue building a fruitful partnership with Ruskin Mill in the new housing unit in the Therapy Centre with the supported accommodation for vulnerable adults
- to continue maintaining and reviewing the sustainable structure in the Therapy Centre, managing tenancies and supporting therapy provision
We continue to review our systems of financial strategy and financial control, to achieve a robust procedure of delegated authority combined with a system of monitoring and review to ensure the effective use of funds in delivering our objectives.
## **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 state 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:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis.
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 2006. 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.

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2025 which are set out on pages 7 to 15.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your company's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. The accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. The accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. The accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
