**WALTHEW HOUSE 2017 TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2024** 

The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended March 31 2024. 

## **REPORTING FRAMEWORK** 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019), referred to as the Charities SORP (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Charitable objects** 

The objects of the organisation are:- 

- To help people resident in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport who are blind, Deaf or have a sight and/or hearing loss in such ways as the Management Committee thinks fit. 

- To support charitable organisations that promote the welfare of people with a sensory impairment in the same area. 

In shaping the charity’s objectives for the year and planning activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance, including the guidance on public benefit.

2 



**WALTHEW HOUSE 2017 TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2024** 

- Not for profit room hire for organisations working in the field of sensory loss; and 

- A permanent base and recording studio for Stockport Talking Newspaper Association; and courses and services in partnership with other organisations. 

Directly, and working with partners, Walthew House supports more than 400 people each week, including people with sight or hearing loss, their carers, and professionals working with people with sensory.  The charity relies on the support of over 80 trained volunteers who contribute in a wide range of ways including: staffing the resource centre and information help desk, co-ordinating groups and activities, providing refreshments, assisting with communication support for British Sign Language users, acting as sighted guides for people with sight loss, and helping with fundraising. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

Walthew House has taken time over the past 18 months to reflect on changes in the needs of its beneficiary groups post-pandemic and in a challenging economic environment, to ensure that existing support and new services continue to meet the needs of service users and clients. 

Advocacy support, helping to ensure equitable access to services, has, through both service data and consultation with people with sight and/or hearing loss been identified as a major continuing priority.  Two part-time qualified independent advocates work predominantly with sign language users, and two other staff members have upskilled, gaining qualifications in advocacy to better support our work with people with sight loss. 

For people with hearing loss, equitable access to healthcare services is a priority concern, and in response, Walthew House is bolstering advocacy services, providing hearing loss awareness training for professionals and a new Deaf First Responder service for Sign Language (BSL) users and frontline healthcare professionals, supporting prompt effective treatment in emergency situations.  The development work is funded for two years by a grant from NHS Charities Together. 

Consultation with visually impaired people has also highlighted the continuing importance of social contact and access to activities that are accessible to people with sight loss.  Walthew House continues to provide a wide range of centre and community based social and sporting opportunities, which are well attended, with some service users also commenting that rises in fuel bills mean that regularly being able to access a ‘warm space’ and low-cost or free activities is a help with the rising cost of living. 

In a challenging funding environment, which has shown a decrease in the charity’s income, partnership working continues to play an important role in ensuring continuity of support.  The Hospital Information Service established and supported by the charity for two and a half years in the eye clinics at Stepping Hill Hospital has now been incorporated into the hospital’s own services; the ‘What Deaf People Want’ consultation, working in partnership with Bolton Deaf Society and Manchester Deaf Centre, has progressed with support from an Inclusion grant from GMCVO; new volunteers have been welcomed, including students from Seashell Trust; and long established partnership working with Stockport Council’s sensory service, Stockport Talking Newspaper Association, the Stockport branch of the Macular Society, and others, helps to ensure that help is readily available. 

Trustees have recognised that input from people who have lived experience of sight and/or hearing loss at the highest level supports the effective governance of the charity.  Paul Leake, who is blind and who has served three times as chair since 2003, returned to the role in January this year and has led the active recruitment of trustees with sight and or hearing loss.

**WALTHEW HOUSE 2017 TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2024** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Overview** 

Income decreased from £277k in 2023 to £247k in 2024.  This reflects the unpredictable pattern of shortterm grant support and donation and legacy income. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Walthew House was funded principally through charitable grants: 

Charitable activities (including grants from trusts) – 53% Donations/memberships/subscriptions/revenue grants/legacies – 31% Income generation (room hire/resource centre) – 13% Investment income – 3% 

## **Investment policy and review** 

The trustees shall retain sufficient funds on deposit to satisfy short term (next 10 months) needs.  The trustees shall take investment advice from an appropriate qualified and experienced investment adviser. The trustees have considered their attitude to risk and have chosen a risk level of 3-4 (*see below for definition) on a scale of 1 –10 where 1 is secure and 10 is aggressive.  The trustees will avoid any investments that conflict with the aim of the charity.  Any underperformance is accepted by the trustees. The charity will only invest in markets that are closely regulated and compensation schemes are in place; will have a suitably diversified investment portfolio and be particularly wary of making speculative investments. The trustees to decide what yearly income they wish their investment to produce. The trustees review the charities investments at least every 6 months. 

Walthew House recognises its responsibility to comply with all relevant legislation.  Trustees will regularly review policies in the light of changes to legislation and amend the charity’s practices accordingly. 

_*Definition of 3-4 - A level of risk in an investment in which the return should be better than that available from a high street deposit account but where the value of the investment will fall as well as rise. The investor would feel uncomfortable if the investments were likely to rise and fall in value rapidly._ 

## **Reserves** 

The Charity aims to hold up to twelve months expenditure in free reserves (unrestricted funds not invested in fixed assets or otherwise designated) because of the uncertainty over income in future periods. The charity’s free reserves at the year-end were £293K.  The core budget for 2024/5 is for £296K of expenditure, leaving a free reserves of just under 12 months. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

Consultation with beneficiary groups has provided a firm basis for service planning in the coming 18 months to two years.  A two-year grant from NHS Charities Together will support key service delivery during this time, and a two-year core grant from the Garfield Weston Foundation will lend both security and flexibility. 

Walthew House will continue to promote its ‘no wrong door’ approach to ensuring access to the full range of support provided by Walthew House, facilitating a co-ordinated service which is comprehensive, dynamic, and actively inclusive, in line with the charity’s core values:

## **WALTHEW HOUSE 2017 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2024** 

## **1  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Pension Fund** 

The charity makes employer's contributions of 5% of gross pay to the individual pension funds of employees, provided these are matched by 5% of gross pay contributions by the employees.  These are all money purchase schemes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Single asset purchases, not forming part of a related serious of transactions, costing less than £1,000 are not capitalised, but are written off as a revenue expense in the year of acquisition. Depreciation is provided to write off the cost less the estimated residual value of tangible fixed assets by equal instalments over their estimated useful economic lives as follows: 

Buildings - 1% Fixtures - 6.67% or 10% Equipment - 20% Furniture - 10% Restricted project assets - over the life of the project 

## **Investments, gains and losses** 

Fixed asset investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recorded at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price.  The SoFA includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and on disposals throughout the year. 

The investments are identified within the portfolio as specific holdings of shares, unit trusts and bonds (as well as cash). However Pennine Wealth Solutions (with who the portfolio is invested) makes trading decisions for a range of clients and the sales and purchases attributable to the charity are part of much larger transactions.  Subsequently there are many more sales and disposals than would normally be expected for this size of holding and the trustees do not consider it to be practical or cost effective to calculate the individual realised gains and losses on transactions, or the carrying cost of disposals. Therefore disposals are shown at net sale proceeds rather than at carrying value. 

The net gain or loss on valuation is calculated on the difference between the opening market value as adjusted for disposals at net proceed value and additions at cost compared to the closing market value.  The resulting gain or loss is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year. 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks of goods for resale are valued at the lower of cost or net realisable value.  The cost of handicraft goods made by members for resale and held at the balance sheet date are not included in the balance sheet. 

## **Financial instruments** 

The charity has only basic financial instruments which are initially recorded at cost, and with the exception of investments (as set out above) subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

## **Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

## **Cashflow Statement** 

Advantage is taken of the exemptions allowed in the SoRP for small charities not to prepare a cashflow statement.

Costs that can be wholly attributed to either support or governance are allocated directly to those functions, and other costs are allocated either on the basis of the estimation of time spent (freelance staff) or consumption of resources (office costs). 

Support and governance costs are then allocated between costs of raising fund and charitable activities on the basis of the estimation of the use of resources, using a standard percentage method.
