FLIGHT LIEUTENANT REG MITCHELL
ROYAL AIR FORCE
In 1951 when he was 18 years old. Reg
volunteered to serve in the Royal Air
Force to avoid being conscripted into
the Army or Na￿y. With no experience of
engineering, let alone vehicle
maintenance. he was selected to be
trained as a vehicle mechanic, setving in
this role for 25 years. all over the world.
However. the main craft were the new
jets such as Vampires. Venoms and
Meteors.
which had just lost all its ftying untts and had
become a big ground training centre.
Promoted to Sergeant in 1964, Reg was
posted to RAF Nicosia in Cyprus
accompanied by his family. where the EOKA
terrorists were still actively fighting against
our troops.
Reg's role wa5 servicing the wide variety
of vehicles needed to keep the base
running. Whilst there he married and
had two children.
That wa5 his last overseas posting and back
in the UK Reg served at RAF Thorney Island
near Portsmouth from 1965 to 1966, then
after being Commissioned he went to RAF
Henlow for 6 months. Officer Training,
graduating as a Flying Officer.
Initial military and engineering training
was at RAF Bridgnorth in Shropshire,
followed by vehicle maintenance
training at PAF Weeton near Blackpool.
In 1956 he was sent up toa very srnall
unit in Lincolnshire where a WW2 radar
site was still being used by the fighter
controllers in a deep underground
bunker- RAF Skendleby. becoming a
Corporal in charge of their small fleet of
vehicles.
Posted to Egypt to join the huge British
force deployed to guard the Suez Canal,
he lived in tents, surrounded by dust
and flies. As a young lad from South
London who had never been abroad, he
really enjoyed his time there. seNicing
trucks at a masslvejoint Service base
called El Firdan and swimming in the
canal where he found that the water
was surprisingly clean.
Then in 1967 it was back to his main love,
RAF Fighter Command. this time based in
Lincolnshire: first at RAF Binbrook where
they had two Lightning all weather
interceptor Squadrons and in 1968 to RAF
Coningsby where two Phantom all weather
interceptor Squadrons were forming.
A year later. in 1957. it Was back to the
heat and flies in the Libyan Desert at
RAF El Adem. Fortunately for his wife
they were given a married quarter in
Tobruk. on the Mediterranean coast and
near the sea. The airfield was mainly
used by transport aircraft as a refuelling
stop and by fighter squadrons detached
there for gunnery and bombing practice
on a nearby weapons range. Once Reg
had the honour of driving the Chief of
the Air Staff round in a Land Rover on
an inspection when his staff car could
not cope with the very sandy airfield.
In 1972 Reg's final tour of duty was with HQ
Training Command at FiAF Brampton. A very
pleasant posting which involved touring RAF
training bases in the UK supporting their
vehicle maintenance sections- often
travelling in a small passenger aircraft the
Basset. from RAF Wyton. They even flew Reg
around the country in one on a farewell tour
when he retired as a Flight Lieutenant in
1975.
In 1954 he returned to the UK to RAF
Tangmere near 8righton in Sussex - the
well-known Fighter Command airfield
from which, during the 8attle of Britain,
operations were mounted all over
occupied Western Europe. Ten years
post-war it still had the same aggressive
spirit, with a few Spirfires still on
strength.
1960 saw Reg and family back in the UK
at RAF Upwood in Cambridgeshire

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
The Finance Committee oversee the management of the Charitys finances.
INCOME
EXPENDITURE
GREATER MANCHESTER
COMBINED AUTHORITY LOAN
Income for the year 202512026 is broken
down as follows..
This income is critical and allows us to
continue to provide essential care and
support to veterans and their familie5.
Staff wages represent by far the largest
element of our expenditure. Our pay code
embraces the Real Living Wage. Our cost
of care is higher than in some care homes
as a higher ratio of staff to residents
enables us to provide high quality. per50n-
entred care.
The Greater Manchester Combined
Authority I'GMCA'I loan wa5
renegotiated on 21 August 2024.
General Fund £4,436,974
Designated Fund £20.220
Restricted Fund £85.428
The current environment for fundraising
is particsjlarly challenging. We have
continued to benefit from the generosity
of grants. donations and legacie5.
All existing balances were consolidated
into a £4.07m facility with a fixed
interest of 5%.
Full details of our results for the
202412025 financial year are set out in
the Consolidated Statement of Financial
Activities, page 55.
All areas of financial expenditure continue
to be closely scrutinised and balanced
against operationol safety in the delivery
of care.
The Charity recewed donation income
totalling £396k. including legacy funds
totalling £28k. This income provides
invaluable funds which have enabled us
to meet the cost of care for residents
and provide some limited support to
veterans living in the community with
mental health challenges.
Interest is payable quarterly and capital
is repaid as and when surplus funds are
available. The loan runs through to 31
December 2027.
Incorne from contributions accounted
for 93% of unrestricted fund and 91 % of
overall income.
The need for care continues unabated.
As a nursing home, financial intome is
aligned to the occupancy level. The new
Veteran Care Village was fully completed
and commissioned in February 2022.
The 64-bedded Care Home has steadily
rebuilt occupancy over the past few
years, the Care Home average
occupancy increased from 51 in the year
202312024 to 57 in 202412025. In
addition, the independent living
apartments are also now fully otcupied.
RESERVES POLICY
TRUSTEES CONFIRMATION
Legacy income is unpredirtable. and so
we continue to work to increase the
range of regular donors and supporters
for our work.
It is the policy of the Trustees to
maintain a Resetve Fund at a level that
equates to at least three months of
unrestricted expenditure. This provides
sufficient funds to cover costs in the
unlikely event of normal sources of
income drying UP.
The Trustees confirm that the accounts
have been prepared in accordance with
the Statement of Recommended
Practice applicable to charities preparing
their accounts in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standards applicable
in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS
1021 effectivejanuary 2015.
The Charity 15 committed to ernploying
the highest standards in its approach to
fundraising.
At year-end, the Reserve Fund totalled
£506k1202312024 £196kl, which is a
significant increase on the last few
years. but still remains below the three-
month unrestricted expenditure level.
DESIGNATED FUND
We continue to face significant
challenges not least the level of funding
for social care and the complex
regulatory environment. We rely heavily
on grants and public donations to
finance the care services we provide.

INVESTMENT POWERS & POLICY
FUNDING SOURCES GOING
CONCERN STATEMENT
To increase the efficiency of the
investment process the Chari¥s Broker
has been given discretionary authority
to invest on the Chariws behalf.
Changes in the investment portfolio
continue to be monitored by the Trustee
Board on a regular basis and the
Investment Fund Manager is invited to
brief the Board every six months.
The Charity currently depends on
voluntary income to supplement fee
incorne and meet the full cost of the care
provided. A significant proportion of this
income is received from the Service
Charities, Trusts, Legacies and
individuals who have direct experience
of the Second World War and
subsequent conflicts in which ourArmed
Forces served.
The Trustees have considered the ability
to continue as a going concem for a
period of at least 12 months from the
date of signing the accounts.
The pay of the Charitys Chief Executive
and Director of Care is reviewed
annually and normally increased in
accordance with average earnings. The
remuneration is also bench-marked with
grant-making charitie5 of a 5imiSar size
and activity to ensure that the
remuneration set is fair and not out of
line with that generally paid for similar
role5.
We have forecast our income.
expenditure. cash and reserves for the
financial year ending 31 March 2027.
using our latest estimates for 202512026
and prudent assumptions for income
and expenditure and taking into account
the loan facility with the GMCA. Key
assumptions include fee income based
on an average of 59 residents.
CREATING A SUSTAINABLE
FINANCIAL FUTURE FOR THE
CHARITY
The Charity must keep in mind that the
level of legacy and voluntary income
may fall significantly in fuiure years as
the Amied Forces reduce in number and
consequently. those in contact with
them fall.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Broughton House has fixed assets with
property and plant. which are
fundamental to the business. valued at
£11,579k.
Major risks to the Charity as identified by
the Trustees and listed in the Risk
Reglster have been reviewed and
appropriate action has been taken and
systems have been put in place to
mitigate the risks. Records exist lo show
that statutory and local procedures are
being implemented. Statutory
requirements and procedures are
constantly under review.
The reseNes will be kept at the level set
by (he Board of Trustees and we will
continue to hold sufficient reserves, cash
and liquid investments to meet our
liabilities as they fall due. The Trustees
have therefore concluded that it remains
appropriate to prepare these accounts
on a going concern basis.
When setting care fees, the Charity
seeks to achieve a balance between
affordability and a level that is consistent
with providing first.class care and
ccommodation for Residents. in order
to ensure the long-term financial
viability of the Charity. This means that
we weltome Residents whose care is
funded from a variety of sources.
The Reserve Fund is held in the
Investments portfolio, which is valued at
£506k.
The Trustee's policy is to maintain a
Reserve (Designated) Fund at a level that
equates to at least three months of
unrestricted expenditure and to place all
windfall income, such as legacies,
directly Into the ChariWs Reserve Fund.
KEY MANAGEMENT &
PERSONNEL REMUNERATION
The principal ri5k5 facing the Charity are
set out as follows..
Financial
Occupancy
Health and Safety
Safeguarding
Training
Human Resource5 (Recruitment and
Retention)
Quality Assurance and Compliance
Charity Govemance
Key management personnel ofthe
Charity are considered to be the Board
of Trustees, together with the Chief
Executive and Director of Care who are
responsible for directing and controlling
the Charity and the running and
operating of the Care home on a day to
day basis.
Monies placed into the Resetve Fund are
held in an investment portfolio with
percentage yieldl return based on
investment strategy and financial
markets. This fund is used to meet any
General Fund deficit and assists with
emergency funding in the unlikely event
of normal sources of income drying up
and ensures business
continuity in the event of a major or
unexpected event at the Home.
All Trustees give of their time freely and
no trustee remuneration was paid in the
year.
