Chair Rev Luke Bristowe 

## **Residents** 

A number of vacancies have occurred throughout the year and the appointments committee met and interviewed a number of candidates on two occasions. On both occasions the trustees were able to offer residency to prospective candidates. These candidates have now taken up their residency meaning that the Alms Houses has maintained full occupancy all year, which is excellent. 

There is still a waiting list of potential new residents and frequent enquiries on becoming a resident are received 

A number of minor complaints have been handled well internally by Dawn, Neill and the team. 

## **Property and Estates** 

The community room continues to be used by external groups, and efforts to increase the number of regular bookings has been relatively successful. There is still capacity for greater usage and other avenues could be explored. 

Best construction has been appointed to carry out the large scale works to the Almshouses in line with Quinquennial inspections. The start date for the work has not been set yet due to the delays within the local authority planning department. 

The current care call system has reached the end of its life but is still operational, it may not work with the new national digital phone network and it was felt previously that there may be more modern options available, options to replace this system are still being looked into and costed up. 

Asbestos surveys have been completed in all areas and an asbestos management plan is in place and has been utilised. 

Legionella testing and a formal risk assessment has been completed as per national guidance. 



PAT testing of all portable electrical appliances has taken place. 

The damp work to property number 2 has been completed. The resident remained in the property throughout the work, which was their own decision during this time, this has caused some issues but was managed well by staff. 

A process to try and understand the Llanberis estate in more detail has been implemented over the course of the year and work is still ongoing in this area. 

## **Apprenticeship fund** 

This area remains within the objects of the charity and efforts to increase the number of applications over the course of the year have yielded one application, a young person at Ysgol Brynhyfyd. It is hoped that word will spread following one successful application and more might come in over the course of the next few months. 

## **Staff and Trustees** 

Zoe Henderson has joined the board of trustees and will lead a SWOT analysis of the charity with a small group of trustees. 

Beth Spratt was appointed to an administrative role working 4 hours per week to assist Neill with administrative tasks and to seek to re-organise the office arrangements to make it more efficient and fit for the future. 

The trustees agreed to pay rise of 2.5% for all employees as of 1.4.2025, this rise is affordable for the charity whilst also ensuring that some staffs pay is ahead of national minimum wage levels. 

## **Governance** 

The trustees have met over the course of the year a number of times outside of the regular trustee meetings to think strategically about the future of the Almshouses, and the charity in general. Led by Zoe these meetings have been fruitful and have a allowed a wide range of critical discussion to take place. Whilst the future is still not clear, a small group has begun to look in more detail with a hope to putting a strategy for the future forward to the board of trustees. 

## **Finance** 

The financial outlook for the charity is positive in amongst rising costs.  situation has been especially challenging this year. Both long-term financial investments are performing better than expected and deals to ensure that gas & electric costs occurred to the charity are still in place to ensure the lowest possible costs. 



The costs from weekly maintenance and service charges to residents was increased and residents were assisted in amending their claims for housing benefit. It is believed that the current costs are affordable for every current resident. 

The medium and long term financially sustainable position of the charity is still a concern and the small group looking strategically at the future of the charity are looking into this matter.

**The Goodman And Ruthin Charity** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2024** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The Charity’s principal object is to provide housing accommodation for persons in need. Subsidiary objects are to promote education and training for employment of young persons and to provide relief in need. 

## **Significant activities** 

Under the uniting direction issued by the Charity Commission the company is the corporate trustee of The Goodman and Ruthin Charity (Charity reference 215985), which holds the permanent endowment. The non permanent endowment assets of The Goodman and Ruthin Charity were transferred to the company on 31 December 2008. 

## **Public benefit** 

The charity is registered with the Welsh Assembly Government as a Social landlord. We own and manage 22 dwellings, known as the Church Walks Almshouses, which provide independent living for elderly and other persons in need. With the assistance of a resident Superintendent inhabitants are able to live independently in a safe and caring environment. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The charity benefits from endowment funds which are invested in recognized charity funds in particular as income shares in the National Association of Almshouses Common Investment Fund (NAACIF) which provides a regular income. 

Almshouse residents pay a Weekly Maintenance Contribution and a Heating Charge towards the running costs of their house. These are reviewed annually and kept as low as possible with the proviso that, in conjunction with endowment income, sufficient finance is available to maintain the almshouse property and provide for future improvements. 

Any surplus is invested in an Extraordinary Repairs Fund, also with NAACIF, which can be drawn upon to fund long term improvements. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The investments have been acquired from past reserves and contribute a steady income that helps subsidise the charity’s activities. 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity became a company limited by guarantee on 21st May 2008. It is governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the company and by a Charity Commission Scheme dated 7th November 2008, which replaced existing trusts, and authorises the company to administer and manage its property.

**Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Goodman And Ruthin Charity** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Goodman And Ruthin Charity ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's 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 charity'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: 

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.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value. 

The financial statements are also prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice For Registered Social Housing Providers 2018, and the Accounting Requirements for Registered Social Landlords General Determination (Wales) 2015. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from rents and room hire is recognised on the basis of premises occupancy. 

Income from investments is recognised upon notification from the fund manager. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - not provided Fixtures and fittings -     33% on cost, 20% on cost and 10% on cost 

## **Housing land and buildings** 

Housing properties are held for the provision of social benefit housing and are stated at cost. The development costs of housing properties include the following: 

(i) Development expenditure 

(ii) Interest charged on the mortgage loans raised to finance the scheme. 

It is considered that housing accommodation is maintained to a high standard through a continuing programme of refurbishment and maintenance. Consequently the lives of properties and their residual values are such that any depreciation charge would be immaterial. The expenditure on repairs and maintenance is recognised as expenditure in the year which it is incurred. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

**The Goodman And Ruthin Charity** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2024** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The Charity’s principal object is to provide housing accommodation for persons in need. Subsidiary objects are to promote education and training for employment of young persons and to provide relief in need. 

## **Significant activities** 

Under the uniting direction issued by the Charity Commission the company is the corporate trustee of The Goodman and Ruthin Charity (Charity reference 215985), which holds the permanent endowment. The non permanent endowment assets of The Goodman and Ruthin Charity were transferred to the company on 31 December 2008. 

## **Public benefit** 

The charity is registered with the Welsh Assembly Government as a Social landlord. We own and manage 22 dwellings, known as the Church Walks Almshouses, which provide independent living for elderly and other persons in need. With the assistance of a resident Superintendent inhabitants are able to live independently in a safe and caring environment. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The charity benefits from endowment funds which are invested in recognized charity funds in particular as income shares in the National Association of Almshouses Common Investment Fund (NAACIF) which provides a regular income. 

Almshouse residents pay a Weekly Maintenance Contribution and a Heating Charge towards the running costs of their house. These are reviewed annually and kept as low as possible with the proviso that, in conjunction with endowment income, sufficient finance is available to maintain the almshouse property and provide for future improvements. 

Any surplus is invested in an Extraordinary Repairs Fund, also with NAACIF, which can be drawn upon to fund long term improvements. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The investments have been acquired from past reserves and contribute a steady income that helps subsidise the charity’s activities. 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity became a company limited by guarantee on 21st May 2008. It is governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the company and by a Charity Commission Scheme dated 7th November 2008, which replaced existing trusts, and authorises the company to administer and manage its property.

**Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Goodman And Ruthin Charity** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Goodman And Ruthin Charity ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's 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 charity'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: 

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.

**The Goodman And Ruthin Charity** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value. 

The financial statements are also prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice For Registered Social Housing Providers 2018, and the Accounting Requirements for Registered Social Landlords General Determination (Wales) 2015. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from rents and room hire is recognised on the basis of premises occupancy. 

Income from investments is recognised upon notification from the fund manager. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - not provided Fixtures and fittings -     33% on cost, 20% on cost and 10% on cost 

## **Housing land and buildings** 

Housing properties are held for the provision of social benefit housing and are stated at cost. The development costs of housing properties include the following: 

(i) Development expenditure 

(ii) Interest charged on the mortgage loans raised to finance the scheme. 

It is considered that housing accommodation is maintained to a high standard through a continuing programme of refurbishment and maintenance. Consequently the lives of properties and their residual values are such that any depreciation charge would be immaterial. The expenditure on repairs and maintenance is recognised as expenditure in the year which it is incurred. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
