Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

Mill Grove Christian Charitable Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. In particular, Mill Grove seeks to support and care for children, young people and families in need by providing them with a loving home and experience of family life, based on faith in God.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The trustees produce the Links magazine by Easter each year. This gives a detailed account of the achievements and performance of the charity over the previous calendar year and copies are available on request. The website provides information, including recordings of recent events, as well as a growing collection of archived resource material. During the year Mill Grove has provided a safe space and support for over 40 children, young people, and where appropriate, their families, as well as vulnerable adults. There have been four families/part families living at Mill Grove during 2022. Some have stayed throughout the year, others for shorter, usually regular and planned periods. This number includes several who are members of the extended family of Mill Grove (in that they, or members of their families, lived here as children). This reflects a commitment to be alongside a child and the child's subsequent family unconditionally. There is long term and prayerful support of the wider extended family of Mill Grove (i.e. those who have lived here as children, their spouses, and families through generations) practically, emotionally and spiritually, reflecting our commitment to be alongside a child and their subsequent family unconditionally.

Families and individuals in the locality regularly turn to us for help and support. There is consistent ministry in local churches and groups, as well as farther afield, as intended and modelled by the Founder Herbert White, grandfather of Keith White. As the worst effects of the Covid pandemic receded in the UK, we have continued to serve and support the extended family of Mill Grove, adapting the way we live and operate, and ensuring careful guidelines and boundaries to reduce transmission of the virus. Further adaptations to the properties in North Wales meant that fifty of the extended family were able to stay for periods of the August summer holiday, hosted by Keith and Ruth. Annual events such as Our Day in May, Founders’ Day in November, and Christmas were celebrated face to face once again.

The Mill Grove Pre-School and The Rose Walton Centre use the premises daily to serve young local children and their families in a variety of ways. Each is an integral part of Mill Grove, practically as well as legally. The work of the RWC continues to be supplemented by the regular presence of a professional physiotherapist. There have been significant adaptations and improvements to the facilities used by the Pre-School, including a new classroom in the orchard and new toilet and washing facilities in the vestibule of the hall. Local groups, including the Maybank Community Association, hold meetings and activities at Mill Grove. Piano and music lessons have continued with a new teacher (and composer) living locally. We have links with several networks and organisations whose aims and values are consistent with ours as listed above. Keith White serves as the Chair of Trustees of Abridge Evangelical Free Church, now known as Abridge Village Church, founded by Herbert White. Keith preaches and teaches extensively in London and the Home Counties based on his life and experience of God's faithfulness at Mill Grove. The Anglicised edition of the NIrV Bible continues to be distributed and sold. This was made possible because of support from the Goddard Memorial Fund legacy.

In addition to Links, literature and material describing the experiences and distilled wisdom of Mill Grove, including Know your Bible, The Bible (Narrative) NIrV, A Place for Us (DVD), The Growth of Love, Reflections on Living with Children (Volumes I, II and III) and the autobiography Somebody’s Son (now in Kindle format), continue to be distributed.

Maintenance of the properties in Woodford and North Wales continues, with several rooms redecorated and upgraded, and a new kitchenette installed. Maintenance has involved a combination of professional, paid labour, and the voluntary efforts of former members of the Mill Grove family. We appointed a former Trustee to manage much of this work. We actively explore ways of living more sustainably based on the recommendations of an energy audit in 2017. We continue to rely on God to meet our needs and do not advertise or engage in fundraising.

Investment gains and This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and losses any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES

Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance and support Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its costs compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of Grants with performance service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the conditions recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to Grants payable without realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be performance conditions recognised. Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently Provisions for liabilities measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per instruments paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. 2.4 ASSETS Tangible fixed assets for These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least use by charity They are valued at cost. The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. Intangible fixed assets The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights.

Heritage assets The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. They are valued at cost. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Stocks and work in Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net progress realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at
