OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The purposes of the charity as set put in its governing document is for the relief of financial hardship among people living or working within the area administered by Canterbury City Council in the county of Kent, or who in the opinion of the Trustees have strong links to this areas, in particular, by providing such persons with almshouse accommodation and financial support through the provision of utilities which they could not otherwise afford through lack of means.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 are attached to this Annual Report.

The Financial Statements reveal the Charity's income sources which, are in the main derived from stock exchange investments, the investment property and the various bequests and endowments which have been made to the Charity in the course of its lifetime. Expenditure reflects the Trustees principal activity as per its Constitution of providing almshouse accommodation to those in need. Inevitably in meeting these objectives administration expenses are incurred but the Trustees do not consider the level of administration to be excessive having regard to the nature of the Charity under their control. During 2022 total resources used by the Trustees amounted to £58,249 against £66,088 resources arising, leaving a surplus of £7,839 before the revaluation of investment assets. (2021 £25,944).

For the financial year ended 31 December 2022, whilst the Coronavirus outbreak and the related impacts are considered adjusting events, there has been no impact on the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities.

The trustees are taking all possible steps to alleviate the impact on the charity's operations as far as possible. However, due to the uncertainty of the outcome of the current events, the trustees cannot reasonably estimate the impact these events will have on the Charity's financial position, results of operations or cash flows in the future.

As it is uncertain how property and investment values may be impacted by the Coronavirus in the longer term, the Trustees cannot reasonably estimate the impact these events will have on the Charity's financial position or cash flows in the future.

However the charity expects to have adequate resources available to meet its obligations for at least the next twelve months and therefore the trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.

Reserves as at 31st December 2022 were all unrestricted £1,874,874 (2021 £1,874,871) of which £1,587,963 (2021 £1,651,928) can only be realised by the disposal of tangible fixed assets.

Reserves are maintained to help finance the maintenance and repair of the almshouses for the ongoing benefit of the residents. A quinquennial inspection of the buildings is carried out and a programme of repairs completed as required.

The Trustees maintain a block policy of insurance in respect of the freehold properties under their control, to ensure these assets are properly insured with a system established for future uplift of insurance values. It is confirmed a rolling programme of building, mechanical and electrical maintenance is in place for all properties under the Trustees control and advice has also been taken from the Charity's architects in this respect.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following the 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) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

MAYNARD AND COTTON'S HOSPITAL CIO

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, 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 Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Maynard & Cotton's Almshouses is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), registered at the Charity Commission in England and Wales. The principal address is shown on page 2 of these financial statements. The objects of the CIO are the relief of financial hardship among people living or working within the area administered by Canterbury City Council in the County of Kent, or who in the opinion of the Trustees have strong links with this area, in particular, by providing such persons with almshouse accommodation and financial support through the provision of utilities which they could not otherwise afford through lack of means.

Maynard & Cotton's Almshouses CIO constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has evolved following the 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) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charity has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

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.

Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares and property. It includes dividends, interest and rent. Where it is not practicable to identify investment management costs incurred within a scheme with reasonable accuracy the investment income is reported net of these costs. It is included when the amount can be measured reliably.

Investment income is recognised as the charity's right to receive payment is established.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

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.

Support costs

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Premises overheads have been allocated on an insert detail basis and other overheads have been allocated on an insert detail basis.

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 improvements - 2% on cost Computer equipment - 33 1/3% on cost

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Investment property

Investment properties for which fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort are measured at fair value at each reporting date which changes in fair value recognised in 'net gains/ (losses) on investments in the SOFA.

Investments

Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with changes recognised in 'net gains / (losses) on investments' in the SoFA if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably.

Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

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