Objectives and activities
The charity's objects
To promote the benefit of the residents of the Parish of All Saints Horton in the City of Bradford, in particular through the relief of poverty, sickness, disability and old age, the advancement of education and training, providing facilities for recreation and leisure-time occupation, and other purposes beneficial to the community which are charitable in law.
The charity's main activities
Runs community activities for the benefit of the people of the geographical region of the Parish of All Saints Church Little Horton.
Runs a significant group for young people with special needs and their families.
Runs a twice weekly drop in for IT access and support, as well as support around employability.
Public benefit statement
In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the relief of poverty, the advancement of training and providing facilities for recreation and leisure time activities.
Achievements and performance
During 2024, we’ve been privileged to maintain our long term support of some of our community’s most at need members. This has happened through the continuation of our IT provision, which focuses on overcoming digital exclusion, and meeting the needs of all those who access the provision. This provision has provided over 350 hours of open access, as well as supporting intensively through 1 to 1 support where helpful. This has all been made possible due to an amazingly dedicated staff lead and three incredibly generous volunteers.
We have also continued our support for young people with additional needs and their families, both within our own centre and in other locations around the city, and have offered over 80 hours of direct support to families. This is once again enabled by a dedicated staff and volunteer team, whose impact on the lives of those they love and serve cannot be underestimated.
Furthermore, in 2024, thanks to the Household Support Fund, we have been able to offer the equivalent of nearly 500 emergency food parcels to families in and around our community facing food insecurity. This has been a privilege which also enables the creation of a part time post at the beginning of the support (in 2022) and we have been privileged to see some incredible growth in this staff member.
Landmark remains deeply committed to serving the needs of the people we love and serve in our part of the city.
Financial review
The net income for the year was £315, including net income of £1,545 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £1,230 on restricted funds, after transfers.

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2024
Reserves policy
The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £6,823.
The All Saints Landmark Centre believes that in order to provide security and stability to the organisation and its staff, sufficient funds need to be held in reserve for unexpected situations or cash flow difficulties.
It also needs to have enough money to carry out legal obligations in the event of the organisation having to wind up. In particular the organisation must ensure that it would be able to pay salaries, redundancy costs and any obligations under any leases or other contracts.
The trustees have set a target of 6 months running costs, which based on budgeted core 2025/2026 expenditure equates to £18,000. However, we recognise this as aspirational at the moment, but have maintained a minimum reserve which would cover any redundancy and winding up costs should they ever be needed.
The trustees acknowledge that the current reserves are below the required level outlined in the reserves policy. They are actively working to increase free reserves by raising additional donations and unrestricted grants, while also reducing some ad-hoc expenses. The trustees plan to review the reserves policy next year.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping 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 accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.
Approved by the board of trustees on 23/08/2025

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of All Saints Landmark Centre
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on pages 7 to 13.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the charitable 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 charitable 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 ('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 material 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 (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.
