REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (“Charities SORP”) (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland; FRS 102) issued in October 2019
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Rose Hill and Donnington Advice Centre Limited is a private company limited by guarantee and registered in England and Wales as a charity under the Charities Act. The charitable company is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Rose Hill and Donnington Advice Centre Limited was incorporated as a company on 15 November 2007 (registered company number 6428264) and registered by the Charity Commission on 7 April 2008 (charity number 1123488). The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purpose of charity law.
The charity is managed by the trustees who meet as and when required but usually at least six times a year. The trustees do not receive remuneration or expenses.
New Trustees are appointed either to fill a casual vacancy or by way of addition to the Board. Particular emphasis is placed upon the appointment of Trustees with knowledge and experience relevant to the charity’s activities. When new Trustees are appointed they are given an introduction to the work of the charity and provided with the information they need to fulfil their roles, which includes information about the role of the Trustees and their responsibilities under the Charities and Companies Acts.
Internal controls of the charity’s resources are based principally on the requirement for two signatories for expenditure. Where the charity acts as a recipient of grants from other charities, for example for furniture or other essential household equipment, the funds are handled through a bank account separate from that used for the charity’s own requirements. Appropriate insurance has been effected where available.
The trustee directors set out below held office during the whole of the year except where otherwise stated. The company has no share capital and the directors have no interests in it.

ROSE HILL AND DONNINGTON ADVICE CENTRE LIMITED
REPORT OF TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The Trustees have identified and considered the major risks to which the charity is exposed and have established systems and procedures to manage those risks. The principal risk associated with the charity’s operation remains the availability of operational grants.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The object of the charity is the relief of poverty of persons resident in Rose Hill and Donnington and the surrounding areas who are in conditions of need, hardship and distress, and in particular by the provision of information, advice and assistance on all matters relating to welfare benefits and City and County and national services at both statutory and voluntary level.
The trustees have had regard to the requirement to demonstrate Public Benefit. They are satisfied that the charity’s activities are available to all members of the public in the charity’s geographical area of operation and that all its activities are demonstrably for the benefit of those members of the public who seek to avail themselves of its services.
The charity’s activities have as a principal public benefit assisting individuals, often elderly and/or disabled, and families to continue to live in their own homes. This provides a major social benefit for the community as well as for the individuals and families assisted; it also makes a major contribution to reducing the demands made on the County and City Councils’ services, for example support in rescheduling debt can prevent homelessness. This reduces the likelihood of children being taken into care by the County Council and removes any requirement for the City Council to provide emergency housing.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
During the year we dealt with 3,674 individual contacts. The number of different clients helped was 1,087, which is an increase of 68% on the previous year, and 547 of them were new clients. Of the total, the vast majority were of working age and 55% had dependent children. The most common ethnic origin was White British with the remainder being from very diverse communities. 46% of clients had a disability or life-limiting long-term illness.
In terms of accommodation, the largest single group (48%) comprised tenants of social housing (mostly Oxford City Council but also housing associations) but we are seeing increasing numbers of tenants in privately rented accommodation (28%). This group faces particular disadvantages and is likely to be paying much higher rent than those in social housing. We are also seeing increasing numbers of owner-occupiers – 76 this year.
The Charity dealt with many issues, including benefits, debts and housing. A number of clients were signposted to other agencies, especially Citizens Advice Oxford – often because the issue was one on which we are not qualified to advise.
The Centre made clients £430,790 better off in 2024/25 through helping them to obtain benefits to which they were entitled, obtain grants and one-off payments from charities and other sources including Council and Government grants, and get debts written off. This represents an increase of more than 50% compared with last year.
As always, we are very grateful to our staff for their hard work in dealing with so many local people, helping them to maximise their income, reduce their debts and improve their lives

ROSE HILL AND DONNINGTOM ADVICE CENTRE LIMITED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Charity has a policy of retaining sufficient unrestricted reserves to finance its planned programme and meet its future financial obligations. For this purpose, the Trustees monitor financial performance and forecast future commitments and reserves for a minimum of 18 months ahead.
The charity’s activities continue to be funded substantially by the grant received from the Oxford City Council. The trustees are very grateful for this continued essential funding and for the significant support offered by local and other charities in the fulfilment of the charity’s objects. In the event that local authority funding is greatly reduced, the Trustees are confident that, with the continuing support of the staff, a revised level of service would be possible.
Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf by:

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also directors of Rose Hill and Donnington Advice Centre Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The report and accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements 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 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 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 financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company 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 charitable company 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 corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31[st] March 2025 which are set out on pages 7 to 14.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity 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 company’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
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 that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.
