Case studies and testimonials 

“I am a person who loves art. I studied fashion, live art, poetry and drawing. I love to paint in acrylics. My favourite thing to paint is flowers or landscapes. 

I understand illness and I am hoping to recover from a lifelong illness that left me very anxious and on edge.  Studio 5 helps a lot, it gives me the possibility to create in a relaxing atmosphere, learn about art techniques and people ’s lives. 

My other passion is swimming. I am hoping to get fit and healthy again - by training in the springtime. London is beautiful in the Spring. I love Regents Park and Hyde Park. I want to develop my art and begin to sell it, or at least show it. We had a great final year show recently!” Dara – Participant 

“Kevin came to the group as an unconfident person, he has developed self-esteem and an interest in art leading him to enrolled onto a Picture Frame Making course at the Working Men’s College”. – Crestina – Photography Tutor 

In February 2024, the programme was pleased to once again hold an annual exhibition to showcase the works created through the programme. The exhibition included music, written and performed by Arlington residents as well as textiles, art and photography. Around 100 people attended the exhibition, including the Mayor of Camden. 

A second edition of Illustrated Ape magazine dedicated to Arlington was published and launched at the exhibition. The magazine features original creative fiction, pictures, poetry, and reviews and will be distributed by a company with a long-term relationship, with proceeds benefiting the company. 

During the year, One Housing Foundation continued to actively support residents to contribute to their communities through community development initiatives. Such activity included partnering with Age UK, police, charities, and councils to deliver street doctors training (first aid for knife wounds), violence reduction mentoring services, wellbeing projects, digital inclusion, and virtual coffee mornings to reduce elderly isolation. 

## _**Improving the wellbeing of our older residents**_ 

Through our activities, we seek to reduce loneliness and work with organisations to deliver social and community projects specifically for our older residents. These activities were funded directly by the parent undertaking, and not through the charity.

## One Housing Foundation 

for the year ended 31 March 2024 

## **Report of the Directors and Trustees, including Strategic Report (continued)** 

## **Financial Review** 

The results for the period are detailed in the statement of financial activities on page 17. 

The financial performance for the year resulted in a net expenditure of £777k (2023: £556k). 

The income generated in the year was £397k (2023: £556k), of which £10k was donated by TRGL as a contribution-inkind. 

Overall reserves, including both unrestricted and restricted funds, were £280k (2023: £1,057k) at the year end. 

## **Going concern** 

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern the directors have considered the principal risks faced by the charity and its long-term viability. After due consideration, the trustees are confident that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months after the date on which the report and financial statements are signed. The business plan of the Riverside Group is stress tested to assess the ability of the Group and its subsidiaries, including One Housing Foundation, to withstand financial challenges arising from macro-economic factors. 

One Housing Foundation’s financial position is strong, and it has a number of mitigating actions available if required to protect operational and financial resources. As such the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

Charities are required to have a policy for holding reserves and to set a financial level for them. The reserves cover the money that may be needed in case of a shutdown, money required to address future uncertainties; and building reserves sufficient for new projects. The reserve policy states that One Housing Foundation will always keep a reserve of £30k to cover shut down costs. Reserves will be regularly reviewed and monitored to ensure the effectiveness of the policy in the light of the changing funding and financial climates and other risks. 

## **Reserves** 

Total reserves at 31 March 2024 are £280k (2023: £1,057k) of which £23k (2023: £63k) is restricted. The reserves and external income will fund two to three years of continued work prior to dissolution and future agreement for the transfer of assets and legacy projects into The Riverside Foundation.

## **Report of the Directors and Trustees, including Strategic Report (continued)** 

## **Principal risks and uncertainties** 

In the opinion of the trustees of the charity the principal business risk is that the entity has adequate resource to continue its operations. The trustees review financial performance regularly and One Housing Foundation will be provided with financial support from The Riverside Group Limited. 

The trustees are committed to ensuring that consideration of risks is a part of everyday management processes, and the trustees review the financial performance of the charity on a regular basis. 

A structured risk management process is followed across the organisation to: 

- improve decision making and optimise opportunity. 

- promote innovation in efficient and effective service delivery. 

- enhance reputation. 

- minimise levels of inspection and regulation. 

- deliver value for money. 

- avoid unbudgeted expenditure and/or loss of income; and 

- 

- secure trust from stakeholders through transparent and open management. 

## **Fundraising** 

One Housing Foundation does not raise funds from members of the public, does not pay for a dedicated fundraiser or use a commercial fundraising agency. It does not work with, have oversight of, or raise funds from commercial participants or professional fundraisers. Its fundraising strategy focuses on securing funding from grant funding bids, contracted services, sponsorship, corporate donors and maximising social value contributions through our partners. In year, funds were achieved in addition to grant funding and sponsorship, from social value contributions and direct donations for benefit in kind services. No complaints were received in respect of fundraising during the year. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

The charity’s strategic direction will continue to champion One Housing Foundation’s social purpose and corporate priorities which includes increasing social mobility and helping people when they most need it and being much more than just a landlord. Future plans include further developing key partnership and community development projects to ensure that we deliver the most impact for our residents, as well as continuing to work with Government departments, its partners, supply-chain contractors and other charities. We will also be working alongside The Riverside Foundation to ensure that the wider strategic objectives of both charitable Foundations can be delivered in areas where we have shared local communities. 

We continue to deliver against the One Housing Foundation’s Fundraising Strategy.

## **Report of the Directors and Trustees, including Strategic Report (continued)** 

## **Statement of directors’ and trustees’ responsibilities in respect of the Directors’ and Trustees’ Report and the financial statements** 

The Trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report including the Strategic Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year in accordance with United Kingdom Gennerally Accepted Accounting Policy (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under charity and company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. 

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and accounting 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; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements 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. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

## **Disclosure of information to auditor** 

All of the current trustees have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information. The trustees are not aware of any relevant audit information of which the auditors are unaware. 

## **Approval** 

This report including the Strategic Report was approved by the Board of Trustees on 15 November 2024.

## **Report of the Independent Auditor to the Trustees of One Housing Foundation** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ONE HOUSING FOUNDATION** 

## **Opinion on the financial statements** 

In our opinion, the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the Charitable Company’s affairs as at 31 March 2024 and of incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

We have audited the financial statements of One Housing Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Independence** 

We remain independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. 

## **Conclusions related to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

## We have nothing to report in this regard.

## **Other Companies Act 2006 reporting** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

- the Strategic report which is included in the Trustees’ Report, has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charitable Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatement in the Strategic report or the Trustees’ report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of Directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of Trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

## _Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud_ 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

## **Report of the Independent Auditor (continued) to the Trustees of One Housing Foundation** 

_Non-compliance with laws and regulations_ 

Based on our understanding of the charitable company and the sector in which it operates discussion with management and those charged with governance and obtaining and understanding of the charitable company’s policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. We considered the significant laws and regulations to be the applicable framework (Charities SORP 2019, FRS 102 and Charities Act 2011) and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a direct impact and material effect on the financial statements. 

Our procedures in respect of the above included: 

- Review of minutes of meeting of those charged with governance for any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- Review of financial statement disclosures and agreeing to supporting documentation. 

- Discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of noncompliance with laws and regulations 

## _Fraud_ 

We assessed the susceptibility of the financial statements to material misstatement, including fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included: 

- Enquiry with management and those charged with governance regarding any known or suspected instances of fraud; 

- Obtaining an understanding of the Charitable Company’s policies and procedures relating to: 

   - Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud; and 

   - `o` Internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud. 

- Review of minutes of meeting of those charged with governance for any known or suspected instances of fraud; 

- Discussion amongst the engagement team as to how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements; 

- Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. 

Based on our risk assessment, we considered the areas most susceptible to fraud to be income recognition in relation to donations and management override of controls through inappropriate journal entries to manipulate financial results. 

Our procedures in respect of the above included: 

- Testing a sample of journal entries throughout the year, which met a defined risk criteria, by agreeing to supporting documentation; 

- Testing a sample of income throughout the year to supporting documentation. 

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. 

Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Financial Reporting Council’s (“FRC’s”) website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

## One Housing Foundation 

for the year ended 31 March 2024 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Principal accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies, all of which have applied consistently throughout the year, are set out below. Where a change of accounting policy or treatment has occurred, the prior year figures have been adjusted to reflect the new treatment. 

## **Legal status** 

One Housing Foundation was incorporated in England & Wales as a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. The charity is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Riverside Group Limited (TRGL). 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

One Housing Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

The financial statements comply with the charity’s Articles of Association as accounts have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), Financial Reporting Standard applicable in UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the accounting policies. 

The presentation currency of these financial statements is sterling, which the functional currency of the charity. All amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £’000. 

The following principal accounting policies have been applied: 

## **Going concern** 

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern the directors have considered the principal risks faced by the charity and its long-term viability. After due consideration, the trustees are confident that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months after the date on which the report and financial statements are signed. The business plan of the Riverside Group is stress tested to assess the ability of the Group and its subsidiaries, including One Housing Foundation, to withstand financial challenges arising from macro-economic factors. 

One Housing Foundation’s financial position is strong, and it has a number of mitigating actions available if required to protect operational and financial resources. As such the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Principal accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the statement of financial position date and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. 

In preparing these financial statements, the key judgements have been made in respect of the following: 

- The appropriate allocation of support costs used for raising funds, general support, and administration. The value of the contribution in kind is calculated based on The Riverside Group Limited, providing management and administrative services to subsidiaries. The most significant element of this is staff costs, including director’s emoluments, as senior employees are not directly paid by the charity. Costs are apportioned as follows: 

ICT usage number of employees in each entity HR and governance number of employees in each entity Directors and senior staff number of employees in each entity Finance turnover in each entity 

- Fixed asset useful economic lives – depreciation charges are recognised and write down assets to their residual values over their useful lives. The determination of these residual lives and estimated lives requires the exercise of management judgement. 

Other key sources of estimation uncertainty: 

- Debtors - The estimate for receivables relates to the recoverability of the balances outstanding at year end. A review is performed on an individual debtor basis to consider whether each debt is recoverable. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is certain that the income will be received, and the monetary value of the income can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met. 

## **Donated goods and volunteer and other donated services** 

The charity has not received any donated goods. The value of services provided by volunteers is not incorporated into these financial statements. 

Where services are provided to the charity as a donation that would normally be purchased from our suppliers this contribution is included in the financial statements at an estimate based on the value of contribution to the charity had the charity purchased them.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)** 

## **for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Principal accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

Governance costs include those incurred in the governance by the trustees of the charity’s assets are primarily associated with the constitutional and statutory requirements of operating the charity. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is a registered charity and as such, is entitled to certain tax exemptions on income and profits from investments, and surpluses on any charitable activities carried on in furtherance of the charity’s primary objectives, if these profits and surpluses are applied solely for charitable purposes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical costs less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asst to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. 

The charity adds to the carrying amount of an item of fixed assets the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if the replacement art is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the group. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. Repairs and maintenance are charged to profit and loss during the period in which they are incurred. 

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over the estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives ranges are as follows: 

Furniture & Equipment 10% per annum 

The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate. 

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised within the statement of comprehensive income. 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash on hand and demand deposits, deposits that can be withdrawn without notice or penalty.

## **1 Principal accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to be settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliability. Creditors are recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Unrestricted funds** 

Unrestricted funds are funds that can be used in accordance with the charitable objects of the charity at the discretion of the trustees. 

## **Restricted funds** 

Restricted 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 and the restriction means that the funds can only be used for specific projects or activities. 

## **Financial instruments** 

Financial liabilities and equity are classified according to the substance of the financial instrument’s contractual obligations, rather than its legal form. 

The charity’s cash at bank and in hand and trade and other debtors and its trade and other creditors are measured initially at the transaction price, including transaction costs.
