Hospitality and Hope
Annual report: November 2022 to October 2023
Executive Summary
Led by our Strategic Plan and our ‘evidence-based approach’, Hospitality and Hope has continued to build momentum offering greater depth to service delivery and a holistic approach to supporting individuals and communities in these very challenging times.
The work that we do is strategic. We have seen growth in the charity, an increase in staffing posts, the expansion of services and higher levels of support offered across multiple service areas. The Your Community Shops, our programme of Wellbeing Activities and our Supported Living Accommodation have all seen significant growth. New projects, a Food Sustainability project linked to South Tyneside Council, has also been added to the portfolio. We continue to deliver our South Tyneside Foodbank, our Debt and Welfare Benefit Advice Service and our Community Research and Lobbying.
We are well respected by both the local community and partner organisations. We are active, and challenging, members of the South Tyneside Poverty Group. Bringing our research evidence on the needs of our communities and a sleeves rolled up approach to provide practical solutions to making lives better. Our profile has been heightened: being short-listed in the CJS Awards as North East Charity of the Year; facilitated a news broadcast by Channel 4 Dispatches Programme which interviewed members of our Your Community Shops as part of the powerful story of struggle with hope; improved social media presence and a refreshed website.
Our Your Community Shops are creating neighbourhood hubs, that are successfully bringing residents together in their quest to combat food insecurity in a sustainable way. They are not like normal shops, but offer a hub for friendships, support, advice and building connections with others. Our extensive programme of health and wellbeing activities are now located within each of the community shops. This further strengthens the community connectiveness. We are also supporting the reduction of social isolation and seeing many members volunteering to offer support to this developing community resource and building, truly
‘A community within a community’
This year, across all service areas, we have supported 8,587 individuals with the breadth and depth of support offered to individuals significantly increased due to the expansion of services during the year.

Changes to personnel
Board of Trustees: Our Chair, Pauline Tinnelly, retired in December 2022 after long service with the charity. There was an internal appointment made for her replacement. Sarah Green came to Hospitality and Hope from Virgin Money and has been a Trustee for four years. The board also appointed internally a new role of Vice-Chair. This was to provide some local support as the Chair lived outside of the area although she travelled frequently to the North East.
Brian Thomas, our CEO also retired in October. He leaves an important legacy and the charity with a strong focus and Strategic Plan to support us to continue to offer quality services to the local community. After an open recruitment process using a recruitment agency, Peter Maloney was appointed the new CEO. Peter, an ex-Vodaphone Executive was able to hit the ground running as he had been a Trustee with the charity for several years. A new role of Operations Director has been created.

Achievements and Performance
It has been an exceptionally busy year, with the successful securing of Government Levelling Up grants for both the Your Community Shops and our programme of Community Wellbeing activities. This has provided funding over more than two years to upscale both the breadth and depth of the support that we can now offer to our local communities.
Tackling Food Insecurity
This year, we have extended our portfolio of services that support this priority. We continue to provide emergency support with our South Tyneside Foodbank. An important development is the significant extension of our strategy to provide a more sustainable, medium-term solution with our Your Community Shops.
South Tyneside Foodbank
This year, our Trussell Trust registered Foodbank has seen the highest demand ever, with 2,255 food parcels distributed. National Government support for the Cost-Of-Living Crisis provided up to £900 of financial support for some households otherwise, potentially, demand may have been even higher.
Predictably, January was the peak of the demand, with 274 parcels distributed. At a time when demand for support is high, donations of food decreased. For the first time, the amount of stock going out was higher than that coming in via donations, no doubt as a direct result of the Cost-of Living Crisis. We had to purchase 20% of the food stock for the year. This was possible thanks to grant funding. Stock from collection points in supermarkets donated the highest level of stock (55%), followed by 11% directly from individuals and 9% from colleges and schools. Harvest Festival collections donated more than two tons of food in October.
Over the year, we supported 5,812 individuals (3,419 adults and 2,393 children).

Our newly refurbished meeting rooms at Hampden Street (funded by a grant from Trussell Trust) provides us with a welcoming space and environment to facilitate meaningful conversations with clients so that we can signpost to additional support, both internal and external.
A package of additional support was offered including the distribution of £30,000 of Household Support Fund (HSF) to 180 Foodbank clients. This provided £150 of vouchers paid in three instalments; the issuing of slow cookers to help reduce the cost of cooking meals and free mobile sim cards. At Christmas time, we also distributed gifts including supermarket vouchers, festive food items and gifts for children.
Foodbank Staffing: The support from our volunteer family was more than 1,560 hours of support to sort food and assemble parcels. This is a significant contribution, the equivalent of 0.8 FTE post. We had some changes to staffing in the Foodbank with a new Foodbank Coordinator supported by a Van Driver. In addition, we appointed an Operations Manager (September 2023) with responsibility for the Foodbank and marketing via social media.
Debt and Welfare Benefit Advice Service
We have continued to offer a Debt and Welfare Benefit Advice Service to our Foodbank clients. This specialist service is provided by Age Concern Tyneside South (ACTS) thanks to continued funding from the Trussell Trust. We have had an outstanding year with £921,047 returned into the local community. We were one of the highest performing Financial Inclusion Services in the Trussell Trust family.

Your Community Shops
Hospitality and Hope were one of only eight organisations that were successful in securing substantial funding from national Government Levelling Up funding, UK Shared Prosperity Fund via South Tyneside Council. From January 2023 to March 2025, we will be able to operate a network of three Your Community Shops, employ three staff members and provide volunteering opportunities for members of the local community supporting the growth of confidence and self-esteem, the development of skills and creating a vibrant community hub. At the same time, they offer a longer-term solution to food insecurity located within the communities of highest need. They are a local resource that also acts as a central hub for wider support including health and wellbeing activities.
The new funding builds on the success of our Horsley Hill branch (located within the ward of Harton and Horsley Hill) that was originally funded by a Virgin Money Foundation Grant. Although on a much smaller scale, this project allowed us to demonstrate the need and impact of a longer-term strategy. The additional income will increase capacity to support up to 150 households (circa 450 individuals) each week, averaging 650 visits per month. This is a significant upscaling of the capacity (as illustrated in the diagram below). As well as being able to support more people, the Community Shop model also provides longer-term support for households. Membership to the shop is for six months and allows members to make an average of £16 saving on each shop during that time. This differs from a Food Bank that provides only emergency support with limits of three to four visits over a six-month period.
It looks like a normal shop. Visitors can self-select food and household items as a ‘top-up’ shop, worth around £20, for a weekly fee of £4. We have a wide range of items available including frozen, tinned goods, fresh bread, fruit and vegetables, and household cleaning products. Supplemented further with free items donated from local supermarkets and allotments. Each shop will be open three days per week (9.30am to 3pm).
6
The Cost-of-Living Crisis is making it difficult for everyone. Our clients are families, employed people, people accessing Universal Credit and other benefits, elders in the community and single people. Anyone can become a member of the shop by making a self-referral (a move away from agency referral to support a wider range of households to access support) if they:
-
Live within 1.5 miles.
-
Only one membership per household is permitted at any one time.
Our second Your Community Shop: Working in partnership with Age Concern Tyneside South (ACTS), we recruited and trained a group of eight volunteers and local community members to undertake community research on the feasibility of our second Your Community Shop. Our proposal was for it to be located at Hudson Street, Tyne Dock, South Shields. This is in the ward of Simonside and Rekendyke.
The ‘Community Researchers’ had conversations with a wide range of residents within the location. They collected a range of information using a structured questionnaire which sought to gather insight into the location, opening times and the type of wellbeing activities the community hub should offer.
Utilising the invaluable data gathered, the second Your Community Shop was opened in June 2023 following the recruitment of a paid staff role of Shop Supervisor.

During this year (November 2022 to October 2023), we registered 925 members across the two shops. Households made 7,190 visits which has generated a saving to the local community of £115,040 (the difference between the estimated value of each shop at £20 and the £4 membership fee paid).
The School Uniform Shop in partnership with The Andrews Group (TAG)
Having made the strategic decision to transfer all wellbeing activities and events to the Your Community Shops meant that we had unutilised shop front space in our Chai House building (part of our Supported Living Accommodation building) next to Chichester Metro. At the same time, we received an appeal from a local community group, The Andrews Group, who needed premises for their School Uniform Shop following the closure of premises within the town centre that had offered the service.
We have offered The Andrews Group (TAG) use of the premises for an initial six-month period (June to November 2023) working under the umbrella of Hospitality and Hope. This broadens further the range of support that Hospitality and Hope can offer to their beneficiaries while also supporting a local group and three volunteers.

Community Wellbeing
At the beginning we had offered a limited programme of health and wellbeing activities. This was delivered from a central location, our STEP Project, next to Chichester Metro Station. With the development of our Your Community Shop and funding to develop another two locations before 2025, late in 2022, we amended our delivery strategy for health and wellbeing to align their delivery to the shop locations.
We secured grant funding from The South Tyneside Fund to deliver a pilot project to assess the impact of wellbeing activities on reducing social isolation and increasing volunteering within the local community. This required intensive delivery between February and March 2023.
The ‘Activities on the Hill’ Project has been transformational in establishing a culture of community ownership and engagement and the fusing of the two key elements of the Your Community Shop which are to offer support for food insecurity and wraparound health and wellbeing activities. Collectively they offer a local resource and act as a hub in the community that is quickly becoming a go to destination for the local people.
The action research project gave Hospitality and Hope and the Your Community Shop Horsley Hill the focus, momentum and funding to implement a long-held desire to fully involve the local community in the design and delivery of the services provided at Your Community Shop. The project has enabled us to test our model of delivery with evidence-based practice and to demonstrate capability for ‘scalable and sustainable provision that works to increase regular volunteering and reduce chronic loneliness’.
“ I don’t have any family or friends, so this was a great way of meeting new people”.

Despite the short timescale for delivery of this action research project, we have been overwhelmed by the positive impact – the levels of engagement that have successfully built social capital and has enabled us to:
-
Undertake 350+ conversations : We undertook extensive consultation with the local community of Horsley Hill including on-going 1:1 conversations throughout (and continuing) with members when visiting the shop as well as opportunities in the local community at partner organisation events, passers-by in the shopping area; and a Focus Group of local residents at the beginning of the project.
-
Deliver a responsive programme of activities which delivered 42 sessions offering 56 hours of enrichment activities and generating a total of 1,389 hours of engagement : This ranged from arts activities; Family events; the establishment of a Men’s Group (not an easy task!); and a series of Health Toolkit sessions.
-
Stimulate 515 attendances at enrichment activities (against a target of 360): This is 43% above the ambitious target set at the beginning of the project.
-
Engage with 20 volunteers (against a target of 12): including fifteen new volunteers and the extension of volunteer engagement with a further five. This is a 67% increase above the initial target. In addition, we have initiated work with a further 15 individuals that will transition into volunteers in the next quarter.
-
Support 297 beneficiaries : Including adults and children.
-
Create value for money : This was exceptional value for money, with a cost of only £55.08 for each beneficiary: Total number of beneficiaries was 297; £11.78 for each engagement hour: Total number of engagement hours was 1,389,
This action research project has enabled us to significantly increase the participation of the local community with the Community Shop and hub. It has provided us with a template to further embed and enrich the offer that we make in true partnership with the local community. Following the successful completion of the pilot project, our application for a continuation of the project was approved. This provided funding from July 2023 to March 2025. The funding enabled us to extend our staffing support for the Wellbeing Team. Two Wellbeing Officers were appointed in October. Both progressed from our volunteer family, bringing with them valuable ‘Lived Experience’.

Supported Living Accommodation
Our Supported Living Accommodation (SLA) at Chai House has space for five homeless men. With a staff team of two, we have supported 19 residents during the year.
We continue to implement our ‘Passport to Independent Living’ model to ensure that our residents are on a successful transition to independent living.
Many of the residents have progressed into independent living securing tenancies with Cumbria Housing, Places for People and Local Authorities.
Case study : Mr D came to us following a referral from Emmaus. He is a recovering alcoholic. This was impacting on his ability to maintain his employment as a full-time Trainee Chef. Family relationships had been damaged and had broken down. However, it was clear to the staff team that the client was willing to engage with the aim of moving forward.
Mr D has engaged and enjoyed a photography course, which included days out in Northumberland. This had a huge impact on his wellbeing.
He has now been sober for 42 months.
Mr D has completed relevant training including a Health and Social Care Level 2 and is now working towards the Level 3 qualification. He has also completed other educational training courses and has access to an online learning portal.
Mr D has engaged well and enjoyed building relationships with other peers in Chai House.
He has volunteered within the Foodbank at Hospitality and Hope.
The longer-term plan is to continue support to ensure that Mr D can move into independent living, able to put into practice the broad base of skills that have been developed.
11
Our work has identified that some residents find the move from Chai House into independent living too great. To address this, we purchased a Move-On property on Western Approach to provide this ‘stepping stone’ for those clients that would benefit from a two-stage approach. The property can accommodate two residents and increases our capacity from five to seven residents.
“Being a resident within Hospitality and Hope has been very good. Teri is a great manager and cares and helps. Julie has helped me with appointments and cares too and helped me with my PIP application. I have had support with benefits and doctors too. I love it when they organise a day out and have been bowling and out for a meal. They helped me be ready to move to the Hospitality and Hope Move On Flat. I feel happy for once in my life.” Western Approach Resident

Research and lobbying
A Trussell Trust funded project, ‘My Voice Speaks’, was the beginning of our journey to better understand the needs of our local communities. It focused on working families and sought to tell their stories. The voices of parents and carers who, despite having a job, were just about managing. Identifying the real issues that matter most to families-their daily challenges, their experience of low pay, insecure work and the benefits system. The project listened to and gathered their ‘Lived Experience, which have all too often, been ignored in the past.’
A dedicated staff member engaged in community-focused research, invested time and space to build meaningful relationships with members of the local community through visits to our Foodbank, our Your Community Shops and by working in partnership with six primary schools. The schools’ exceptional understanding of their families’ needs played a vital role in accessing this target group. The University of Sunderland provided academic rigor for the project.
The research facilitated ten workshops and undertook 13 individual interviews with parents. The diverse group comprised of a caretaker, a self-employed textile artist, a pharmacist, carers, shop assistants and individuals working in schools as Classroom Assistants, pastoral staff and School Lunchtime Supervisors. All participants worked in the private, public and third sectors with a combination of full-time, agency, temporary, term time only and zero contract hours. Several individuals had multiple jobs, not out of choice, but out of necessity.
“I am constantly juggling, it’s like a battle managing two jobs and family and friends, I don’t have a life. I don’t tell my friends how much I earn it is embarrassing. I am stressed all the time. I don’t know myself anymore.”
The project highlighted what we already know, that working families in our community of South Tyneside are struggling. In fact, not just struggling, too many are in desperate financial hardship. The increasing costs of housing and the Cost-of-Living Crisis are just two areas that working families are worried about and for most of the group, low wages and the benefits system are not sufficient.
“I worry about money all the time it makes me feel sick and I don’t know how I am going to pay the bills. I have bought electric blankets. That’s what our family does now to keep warm its cheaper than putting the heating on.”
13
Hear me speak Positive Change: Although the project hasn’t changed individual circumstances, it has at least given some of our working families a real chance to express their opinions and reallife experience. There was a notable shift at the end of the project and a positive sense that the group at least felt listened to.
Key outcomes and themes: The findings of the research were written in a report and published as evidence to the Select Committee for the Benefit UK Enquiry. The work has also been shared with local MP, Emma Lewell-Buck and the Poverty Strategy Group of South Tyneside Council (STC):
Job insecurity, and unpredictable working hours: Parents, especially those on zero-hour contracts, faced challenges with varying work hours, affecting mental health and family stability. One individual working for Amazon shared the physical and mental toll of the job, highlighting the pressure to meet strict targets and the fear of losing employment.
Childcare challenges: The need for more affordable and flexible childcare support was a unanimous concern among parents as initial childcare expenses and the unavailability of services in the local area.
Impact of the benefits system: The benefits system was a significant cause of stress, with parents feeling it was too restrictive and not supportive. The complexity of the system, lack of information and delays in receiving benefits were major challenges. Parents expressed feeling trapped and limited in their choices regarding work and financial decisions.
Negative impact of language and perception: Participants highlighted the negative impact of government and media language on their work and welfare benefits.
Self-Employment: Self-employed individuals, especially single parents, face challenges balancing childcare responsibilities with fluctuating incomes. Navigating the benefit system was particularly challenging for self-employed parents, contributing to mental health struggles.
Support staff and educational system challenges: Support staff in schools faced financial struggles, housing insecurities and emotional health impacts. Low pay, disparities in compensation and inadequate representation in decision-making were significant concerns. Issues in accessing services for children with special needs highlighted challenges in the education and healthcare systems.
Nutritional inequality: Support staff advocated for free school meals for all children, emphasising the financial challenges faced by families to provide nutritious food.
Housing costs and living expenses: Increasing housing costs, the cost-of-living crisis and low wages were major concerns for working families. The group stressed the need for more affordable housing and financial support for families facing housing challenges.
Hospitality and Hope is committed to ensuring that the voices of our working families of South Tyneside are heard by local and national policy makers.

Food sustainability
Again, by successfully working in partnership with other organisations within the borough, we have been able to extend our portfolio of work to include Food Sustainability. As a partner within a second UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) project led by Women’s Health in South Tyneside (WHiST), Hospitality and Hope now employ a Food Sustainability Manager. The project is leading on the co-ordination of a South Tyneside Council (STC) Project:
“To collaboratively deliver a more sustainable food system for South Tyneside, enabling access to food that is equitable and healthy for residents, organisations and the planet”.
The project is still in the early stages of development but has developed a brand: STOC (South Tyneside Open Collective). It’s four key priorities are:
-
Inspiring a local Good Food Movement
-
Tackling Food Poverty and diet related ill-health
-
Promoting a sustainable food economy
-
Food for the Planet: Environment sustainability

A BIG thank you to our supporters
Despite it being a tough year for everyone, Hospitality and Hope have continued to receive very generous donations from the local community and many charitable foundations both local and national. We have ‘bucked the trend’ with increasing levels of donations and grants received. A very big thank you to all our supporters, large and small.

Statement of Trustee Responsibilities
The trustees 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).
Charity SORP 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 charity and of incoming resources and application of resources, including the receipts and payments of the charity for that year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable 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 charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity. 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.

HOSPITALITY AND HOPE CIO
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
For the year ended 31 October 2023
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2022 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a Fellow Member of the Association of Accountancy Technicians.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
h examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
h to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
h to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
h the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
h the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
h the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
I 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 October 2023
1 Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
2 Basis of accounting
2.1 Basis of preparation
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with 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 October 2019) – Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2022.
Hospitality and Hope CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
2.2 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charity reported total unrestricted funds at the year end of £339,730 and has already secured a significant amount of funding for the current year. The trustees are of the view that the immediate future of the charity for the next 12 months is secure and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.
3 Income
3.1 Recognition of income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the resources, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is more likely than not that the resources will be received and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
3.2 Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by FRS102 SORP or FRS102.
3.3 Grants and donations
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria of income recognition are met.
3.4 Volunteer help
The value of volunteer help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees' annual report.
3.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

HOSPITALITY AND HOPE CIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 October 2023
3.6 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
4 Expenditure and liabilities
4.1 Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised when it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
4.2 Charitable activities
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of work and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
4.3 Governance and support costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance cost and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
4.4 Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
4.5 Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.
4.6 Provisions for liabilities
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
5 Assets
5.1 Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity
Individual fixed assets costing £250 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis.
Vehicle Straight line over 5 years Flat 11% straight line Office and computer equipment 25% straight line Freehold land and buildings Straight line over 50 years
