Trustees' Report 2024-2025
Achievement and Performance
This 2024/2025 Financial Year was another busy and successful year for Age Concern New
Forest and all our services have increased significantly since we moved to our Hythe Office in
November 2023.
We still work closely with other local Advice Agencies, Food Banks and NFDC and attended
regular meetings to keep up to date and share information. We also networked and
signposted during this time making sure we provided local older people, their families and
carers with a reliable, professional and up-to-date essential service.
We remain a "Friend" of Age UK and continue to support national campaigns where
appropriate and share good working practices with many other Age UKs and Age Concerns
across the county.
All money raised locally by Age Concern New Forest from our Charity Shops is only spent
providing vital services for our local older people in our own local area.
Our Annual Accounts show that we have finished the financial year in an even stronger
financial position compared to the previous year. This is mainly due to the hard-work from our
Shop Managers and their fantastic team of Volunteers, who have maximised donations and
sales.

Services 2024/25
Information and Advice - Our Information & Advice Team gave a comprehensive face to face
service. We ensured that local older people were able to access good quality information and
in particular help with benefits (e.g. form filling), Attendance Allowance, Pension Credits,
Carers Allowance and Blue Badges and Power of Attorney. This financial year saw us help 178
clients and secure £345,474.12 in previously unclaimed benefits. 11,616 people in total
contacted our Office by telephone, email and visits, compared to 7,979 the previous year.
2,821 of those contacts were for Information & Advice, compared to 2,440 the previous year. A
full breakdown of this service can be seen in our Annual Review.
Waterside Good neighbours - Our Coordinator and her team of 30 Volunteers were kept very
busy with tasks. This year saw this service complete 847 tasks compared to 678 the previous
year and 187 clients used this service. Moving to our Hythe premises saw an increase of 25%
for this service. A full breakdown can be seen in our Annual Review.
Befriending and Telephone Buddying - Our team of 33 volunteers carried out 160 visits or
calls each month of this financial year to clients for these two services. A full breakdown can
be seen in our Annual Review. Requests for befriending remains high and we have a waiting
list, as we do not have enough Befriending or Telephone Buddying volunteers to meet the
demand.
Computers At Home - This service was very busy and carried out 118 1 to 1 home visits to
clients by our team of 2 volunteers, compared 40 home visits the previous year.
Totton Lunch Clubs - These two weekly clubs every Monday and Tuesday are well attended
and enjoyed by our clients. Our Coordinators and their volunteers served over 1,600 hot two
course meals. Totton and Eling Community Centre and Bartley Village Hall have been very
supportive of our Lunch Clubs.
Sunday Lunch Club - We ran 2 lunch clubs each month and these were well attended and
very much enjoyed by our clients. Ourteam of dedicated volunteers cooked and served 309
three course Sunday Lunches.
Foot clinics - This service ran at our usual 4 venues - Our Hythe Office, Totton and Eling
Community Centre, Blackfield Baptist Church and Lyndhurst Community Centre. These
clinics at these 4 venues have been running well and appointments have been in great demand
and we have seen a further increase to this service in this year, especially at newest Lyndhurst
clinic. Extra clinics are added at each venue to meet the demand. We provided 218 clinics
and completed 4,685 appointments for this financial year, compared to 204 clinics and 3,905
appointments the previous year. We continue to ring and remind our clients of their
appointments and this helped to keep the missed appointment to 153 for the year. The
dedication and commitment of the Footcare Specialists and Volunteer Receptionists meant
5

Charity Registration Number: 1076585

AGE CONCERN NEW FOREST
(A company limited by guarantee)
that we were able to provide a first-class affordable service. A full breakdown of statistics for
the year is shown in our Annual Review.
Shops - During this financial year our 3 Shops have continued to perform very well, despite the
challenges of low amount of 12p per kilo for clothes from Recycling Company and competing
against sales on Vinted. The Children's Shop in Dibden Purlieu has continued to increase
turnover and build up a great reputation from selling good quality and priced children's clothes
and equipment. Blackfield Shop has been run entirely by volunteers since October 2024 due
to the ill health of our Manager not being able to work and they have done an amazing job
keeping the shop open. Our Dibden Purlieu Main Shop Manager has been coordinating all 3
Shops and that has kept her very busy. We have continued to build up a great team of
volunteers at our Shops and they along with our managers have worked tirelessly to sort stock
and maximise sales. We have been overwhelmed with the amount of donations received and
the support from our customers. Our Charity Shops are a huge part of the local communities
as they provide shop fronted links for the charity and promote all the services we provide.
Age Concern New Forest has 10 part-time members of staff, around 120 volunteers and 7
Trustees (also volunteers). We must acknowledge their support, hard work and dedication.
They all play a major part in our continued success and we could not provide our services
without them. We also recognise and appreciate that all our staff members work over and
above their contracted paid hours and this does not go unnoticed or without immense
gratitude.
It is important that, each year, we express our thanks to those Organisations, Foundations and
Trusts who have supported us and recognised the important role we play in the local
community. These include Age UK, The Horrill Wellbeing Centre, Hampshire County Council,
New Forest District Council, Totton & Eling Town Council, Hythe and Dibden Parish Council,
Lyndhurst Community Centre, Fawley Parish Council, Blackfield Baptist Church, Totton &
Eling Community Centre, 3rd Dibden Purlieu Scouts, New Forest Disability Information
Services, Citizens Advice New Forest, Community First, the Goodneighbours Support
Network, Adult Services, MIND, The Alzheimer's Society, The Herald, Holbury WI, Waterside
and Totton Care Navigators and other Age Concerns/Age UKs in the County. Many individuals
have donated and raised money for us and thanks must go to Roger and Owen Lee, Christine
King and Frank Wood.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Age Concern New Forest
("the Company")
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts for the Company for the year
ended 31 March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's 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 charity'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
Since the Company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body
listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination
because I am a member of ICAEW (FCA), which is one of the listed bodies.
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:
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, in
accordance with the FRS 102.
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.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Notes to the Financial Statements:
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set
out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless
otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015)
•
(charities SORP (FRS 102)). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act
2011
Basis of preparation
Age Concern New Forest meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and
liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in
the relevant accounting policy notes.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue
as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets
held by the charity.
Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
The charity has opted to take the exemption available in Bulletin 1 and has therefore not included a
cash flow statement in these financial statements.
Income and endowments
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 the income receivable can be measured reliably.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and
settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of
performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and
not recognised until either those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is
14
Registered Number: 03705361
Charity Registration Number: 1076585

AGE CONCERN NEW FOREST
(A company limited by guarantee)
wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in
the reporting period.
Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the grant of probate when the
administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and
settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial
asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being
reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been
transferred to the charity.
Grants receivable
Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked
to the grants have been met.
Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is
recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.
Government Grants
Government grants are recognised under the accrual model meaning that grants relating to
revenue shall be recognised in income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the charity
recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate.
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it
is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated
to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs
cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent
with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and
depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated
based on the spread of staff costs.
Raising Funds
These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those
incurred in trading activities to raise funds.
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.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a
basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or
per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
15
Registered Number: 03705361
Charity Registration Number: 1076585

AGE CONCERN NEW FOREST
(A company limited by guarantee)
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010
and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains
received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax act 2010 or Section
256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are
applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent
accumulated depreciation and subsequent impairment losses.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost of valuation, less any
estimated residual value, over their expected economic life as follows:
Asset Class
Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment
Computer Equipment
Depreciation method and rate
25% reducing balance
25% straight line
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an
insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary
course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity
does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the
creditor for at least twelve months after their reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to
defer settlement for a least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-
current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee's discretion in
furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the
use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
The specific purposes for which the funds are to be applied are as follows:
The unrestricted funds can be used for any purpose in accordance with the charitable objectives at
the discretion of the trustees.
The core activities were made up of four types of activities, with an aspiration for five activities:
Footcare- we provide affordable toenail cutting at our clinics held in Totton, Hythe, Lyndhurst and
Blackfield. Vital for ensuring good foot health, prolonging independence and mobility.
Befriending and Telephone Buddying - We can provide a volunteer to visit an older person in their
own home who is lonely or isolated to share interests and provide friendship and company. We
can also offer a regular telephone call from one of our volunteers for a friendly regular chat.
Waterside Good neighbours - Offering neighbourly help, from our volunteers, with all manner of
day-to-day tasks such as shopping or taking shopping, collecting prescriptions, dog walking, taking
to medical appointments, etc for people in the Waterside and Totton area.
Lunch Clubs - we hold two weekly Lunch Clubs in Totton and Bartley and a monthly Sunday Club in
Dibden. Members are able to enjoy a 2 course hot meal with friends. Minibus transport is also
available.
New Forest Advice Network - There are no funds in our Accounts left at the moment for this.
