Executive Summary Welcome to Age UK Lelcestèr Shlre & Rutlandls 2024 - 2025 Annual Revlew. Over the past year, charities have faced growing challenges- from rising operational costs and reduced household donations, to policy changes like the increose in Employers, Notional Insurance Contributions and all at a time when demand for seDJices has dramatically increased. Inevitably, th'is led to the closure of many essential services, or in some cases, the merger of charities with similor objectives or sadly their demise. Tony Donovan To avoid being port of whot Is happening around us and to ensure Age UK Leicester Executive Director Shire & Rutland's long-term future, we have been very proactive over the last twelve months. Acknowledging that the cost-of-living crisis was not just going to go away, we had the courage to make difficult decisions Whe￿ they were needed whilst reviewing every part of our charity to make sure it was fit for purpose going fonvard, delivering services that continue to meet the changing needs of on ever-increasing older populotion Our services and the orgonisation's infrastructure were streamlined, new portnerships forged with statutory, corporate, ond voluntary organisations, investment strategies reviewed, and potential income generation activities explored and, in some cases, introduced. Thonkfully, as o result of actions token and legocies received, we ended the last financial year with 0 £82,(yJo surplus. What a fantastic achievement when you consider the many external chollenge5 Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland facedl Not only thot but thanks to the dedlcatlon and comthitment of our Trust•s and staff groupi there were other notable achlevements whlch included.

A Word from our Chair The charlty sector has been undey immense pressure over the last few years wlth the Cost-of-Living Crisls hlttlng hard, leading to a huge drop in Income when the demand for $oNices has n•ver been so gr•aL .As has been the case in the pasl if the sector is to survive, it must show resilience and odapt to changing times and much greater expectatlon5. Here at Age UK Lelcester Shlre & Rutland we have bégun that process. Every part of our Charity is currently under revlew. Inevitably, this will leod to difficult decisions but at the end of it we will have o much leaner, fit for purpose organisation, better equipped to deal with the challenges that lie ohead and, most importantly, a structure that.ensures our long-term sustainability. In looking to the future, we hove evolved our strategies to ensure they continue to meet our mission; we have streamlined our infrostructure by investing in new Finance, HR and Purchasing systems, reviewed our investments to deliver long-term sustainable.returns, and moved into new areos of care provision ond retail activity. It is when an organisotion is faced with the sort of challenges we have encountered over the last 12 months that you really see it's quolity. We are blessed to hove such dedicated and highly skilled staff and volunteers who have continued to deliver e55entiol support to vulnertsble older people during what has been o very difficult time for all of us. JI Graham Smith Chair I would also like to thonk a number of local businesses, charitable trusts, and individuals for their financial support. We are now in a much better position than many other chorities at this time.

Financial review The statement of financial activities (SOFA) is set out in the accompanying financial statements. This statement shows all income lo the group for the financial year- all costs incurred in addilion to gains or losses on the revaluation of the investment assets and reconciles the resulting excess of income or expenditure resources to the movemènt on the fund balances. The balance sheet reconciles the financial value of the fund balances to the value of the assets held by the charity and Ihe group, both at the start and the end ofthe financial year. A summary ofthe financial results of the charitable group are set out below. Income: Income has increased from £7,827k in FY24 to £8,107k in FY25. Increased legacies (£248k highar than FY24) contributed lo the growth In income, alongside a rise in investment income (£76k higher than FY24). Income from charitable activities remained broadly consistenl. while other trading activities decreased slightly by £20k compared to FY24. Expendlture Expenditure is the cost of running the charity and can be divided into main areas.. 1. Expenditure on raising funds to support the charit8ble activilies of the charity- 2. Expenditure on charitable activities, costs incurred in delivering servlces in accordance with the prirnary objective of the organisation. Some costs are common to bothcategories above. Support costs are central functionssuch asmanagement. adminislralion, human resources. finance, payroll and l.T. These costs are allocated to the categories outlined above on a basis consistent with the utilisation of resources. Overall expenditure increased from £7,693k in FY24 to £8,050k in FY25, driven mainly by an increase in the costs of raising funds, which rose by £472k. Expenditure on charilable aclivities decreased slightly by £115k. Cost optimisation remains a key priority for the ¢harlty. Net movement in funds Fund balances increased from £9,716k as at 31 March 2024 to £9,798k as at 31 March 2025. This reflects the movements in income and expenditure described above alongside net gains on investments of £26k from investment assets. Balance sheet movements The balance sheet lists Ihe assets and liabililies of the group as at 31 March 2025 and at the corresponding date In the previous year. The net value of the assets is balanced by the value of th8 funds at the bottom of the statement. Key balance sheel movements during the period include.. Cash at bank and in hand increased by £50k to £941 k. This increase was primarily due to the transfer of funds from short-term deposits to cash accounts to support operational liquidity and the loan repayment. Short-term deposils decreased by £255k to £897k, as funds were moved into more accessible bank accounts. Loan repayment: The charity repaid ils outstanding loan during the period, reducing total creditors by £478k and strengthening the balance sheet by removing debt liabilities and reducing future interest costs. ReseNes The trustees review the level of reserves through the finances and resources committee and at Board meetings on a monthty basis through the consolidated finance pack. The reserves policy is reviewed annually and continues to be based on a free reserves approach. Total funds held at 31 March 2025 were £9,798k (2024: £9,716k). The free reserves should be maintained at a level to cope with a shock event, such as COVID where at worse case. income ould reduce by 500A and costs reduce by 20°/o. Furthermore the level free reserves shoukl be able to sustain 125°/o of 3 years of op rating deficits. This equales to a range be￿een £1.8m and £2.5m. Thevalue of u investment fun. estrl¢ted reserves including designated funds is £7.3m of which approximately £2.8m (being cash. managed s and short term deposits) is represented by readily liquefiable funds, the rest being representèd by fixed 30

The trustees are considering investment options to align the free reserves wilhin the range above to provide sustsinable income which support the objectives of the Charity. Investment pollcy The trustees have the power lo invest in such assets as they see fit, as long as they act in accordance with the Trustee Act 2000. The current policy is to invest available funds in such assets that will secure the optimum retum with a medium long term risk exposure. The current mix of property and stock market investments is regularly reviewed. Any properties purchased will have the potential of the charity to operate from them in the form of either a resource ￿ntre or trading outlet. The funds Invested In freehold propety Investment assets achieve a return through appreciatlon of Ihe capltal value of the assets and rental income from tenants. The asset values are reviewed on an annual basis and assessed against the value of similar assets in other locations, so as to bench mark movements in value against the property rnarket. Renlal incomes are reviewed in line with the lease temis and applicable market rents applied when renewed in consultation wilh professional letting agents and valuers. Stock market investments are reviewed by management and trustees on a regular basis. Benchmarks are supplied by the investment managers to provide performance indicators against portfolios with similar risk profiles.
