## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

The trustees produce the _Links_ magazine by Easter each year. This gives **Summary of the main** a detailed account of the achievements and performance of the charity **achievements of the charity** over the preceding year and copies are available on request. The website **during the year** 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 2023-2024. Some stayed throughout the year, others for shorter, usually regular and planned periods. This number includes several 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 for the 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 this unconditional commitment. 

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.  Further adaptations to the properties in North Wales meant that forty of the extended family and friends were able to stay or visit 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. 

The Mill Grove Pre-School and The Rose Walton Centre use the premises daily during term-time 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. 

Local groups, including the Maybank Community Association, churches, and Counsel for Life, hold meetings and sessions 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 Village Church, founded by Herbert White.  Keith has preached and taught extensively in London and the Home Counties based on his life and experience of God's faithfulness at Mill Grove. 

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 continued, with several rooms redecorated and upgraded. Some new windows have been installed, there was a major overhaul of the lift and there has been work outside on window frames and the front wall. This has involved a

combination of professional, paid labour, and the voluntary efforts of former members of the Mill Grove family. The maintenance of the properties in North Wales is managed by a former trustee. We actively explore ways of living more sustainably based on the recommendations of an energy audit in 2017.  This has included extensive insulation of windows, and the use of solar and thermal energy. 

We continue to rely on God to meet our needs and do not advertise or engage in fundraising.

ꞏ       it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and  the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability 

There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required o ~~r~~ **Offsetting** permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. 

Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income **Grants and donations** recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). 

In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. 

**Legacies** 

**Government grants** 

The charity has received government grants in the reporting period 

Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.  Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. 

**Tax reclaims on donations and gifts** 

**Contractual income and** This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or **performance related** services or met the performance related conditions. **grants** 

Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. 

**Donated goods** 

The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. 

Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet.  On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from  sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. 

Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. 

Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. 

**Donated services and** Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of **facilities** the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. 

**Support costs** The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described **Volunteer help** in the trustees’ annual report. **Income from interest,** This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can **royalties and dividends** be measured reliably. **Income from membership** Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations **subscriptions** and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities.

**Settlement of insurance** Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other **claims** income in the SoFA. **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.

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 



|**Debtors**<br>(<br>g<br>)<br>g<br>settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity.  Subsequently,<br>they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.<br>**Current asset**<br>**investments**<br>The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and<br>cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and<br>cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather<br>than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due.<br>They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.||||
