THORNGATE CHURCHER TRUST REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 FINANCIAL REVIEW Business and Financial Review During the financial year 2023-24. the Trustees conlinued to review the care and houslng offered to residents, seeklng contlnuous improvement, and enknrking on the development of a new sit8 of almshouses at Grove Road Gosport. In addition, the board havg had r8gard to the requiremenls of its three regulators. the Regutator of Social Housing {RSH}. th8 Care Quality Commission (CQC) arKI Ihe Charity Commission, not least of which being the standard from the RSH to e￿den￿ value for money. Further th8 Trust has incorporated n8W r8quirem8nts from the Housing Ombudsman in its operations. The Trust is a provider of residentlal care services to Hampshire County Council for a number of residents in ts R￿sell Churcher Court care home. The board is pleased to report a surplus for the 12 month period of £496,488 (2023: £136.480). The change in th8 y8ar has mainly been due to reduced costs In the care home pa￿cUlarlY related to agency cover compared to 2023. In 2024 there vlas a slgnfficant In￿eaSe in income as the FX)sitiv8 results of refurbishing rooms within the care hom8 Y￿re evident. Excellent orJxpancy18V81s and th8 r8sults of a stable staff team assisted in a strong perfonnan(x. Operational surpluses (i.e. Njst irKluditYJ housing and soaal care) for the periods excluding valuation adjustments on the penslon fund, investments. and the adjustments made for the maintenance reseN8 figures were £446.656 (2023: £143.824) (see not8 12). During the year the Trust made steady progress on ts strategy to acquire and build new social housing on a sit8 at Grove Road Gosport. Work was carried out through the year to value engineer the tender despite significant inflationary pressures on building and consuttancy costs. Di$￿$s1OnS vRre also held with a number of banks to detemiine the best financing package ak)ngside a Homes England granl application In December 2023, Homes England agreed the grant fvnding needed to Commen￿ the project to build 30 new homes in Spring 2024. Following the marf(et research exercise in 2022 and the decision made to continue to invest in social care and upgrade r¢)oms further over a period of four years to further enhan￿ the Trust's position locally, refvrbishmenl of the care home continued and remained on schedule at the year end wlth 28 oui of 44 rooms completed. Occupancy figures for the care home and housing remain among the best in our peer group. Cowd was nol a signffi¢ant factor in 202&24. Restrictions were lifted in April 2023. The previous y8arfs finances had been aff8Ct8d by the levels of agency stsff needed due to Covid and staffing pressures. However th8 deusion to app￿ for a Sponsorship Licence and rec¥uit overseas candidates resulied in a strong staff retention, and reduced wsts for agency durfng the year. The Trust maintained its accreditation under Real Li¥iNJ Wage Employer scheme. The Trust has also sought to maintsin ts buiklings to a high stsndard. Following the RAAC concrete issues 8ffecling some public l)uiklings in 2023, the Trust immediately undertook surveys of its buildings using professional structsjral 8ngin88r. The investigations CC￿dUded that none of the Trusfs properties were built with RAAC. The Trust has already established that li already meets the Regulatorfs targets of all properties being at EPC "C. or better by 2030. Looking fowrd the Trust remains focussed on its principal aims of providing awwd winning social housing and axcellent social care. its aim to be the empk)y8r of C1K)i￿ and the development of the Grove Road site while not losing site of its carbon reduction loumey. Our income from housing and care activities (excluding grants) increased month on month in 202>24 by 14.6¢k to £3.622.306 over the 12 m¢)nth period (2023: £3.160.033). Ht)using voids continu8d to b8 controlled with void properties acuunting for lost income of £1.394 over 12 months (2023: £2,319). CCLA continue to be engaged as investment managers. Gain on investrnents for the year was £48,892, (2023: Loss of £3,609) reversing the difficult trading conditions seen over the last few years. Page 2

THORNGATE CHURCHER TRUST REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Freehokl propeites are held at hrsiorical cost. wrlh (x)mponent accounting applied to result in a depreciated property figure. Under the Charities SORP social housing grant (SHG) is no longer deducted as in years prior to 2016. The properties are shown in these accounts at their historic Cost of £11,028,592 (2023: 10.762,581). After depreciation the net book value of housing properknes held at historic cost is £8.554.705 (2023: £8,323,412). The valuation undertaken by Lloyds Bank plc In May 2016 valued the Russell Churcher Court care home at £2.25M. The Trusts qualffied Property Servi￿5 Manager carried oul an extensive impaimient review in 2019 and a stock condition survey in summer 2023. neither of which eVIden￿d any indications of impairment. Further a qualified structural engineer examined the Trusys properties for impairm8nt due to RMC concrete and none was found. An additional valuation was (xrrted out by Charity Bank's valuers Avison Young in eady 2024 at Thomgate Court and Melrose Gardens for the purposes of loan security and found no impairment in either site. Accordingly, the trust88s believe the current market value exceeds th8 book valu8. The balan￿ sheet shows a net currenl ass8t at 31 March 2024 of £197.729 (2023.. -£444.167). This change from 2023 is as a result of th8 inlerest only loan negotiated to August 2023, Ix)nverted to a longer temi loan as th8 d8velopment got underway, The ttustees continue lo be of the Opinic￿ that ihe overal financial position of the Trust is healthy and that it is abl8 to meet its Cuffent and future commitinents. During the year there ¥￿S no change to the ￿ard members. Mr Mark Hook was re-appointed to be Chaimian. The l)oard continued with training and strategy days using external consultants and qualified professionals to provide faGilitation. guidance and exp8rtise in specific topics.

In addition. addilional Iraining is undertaken on an ad-hoc basis such as attendan￿ at seminars as and when necessary or trustees are available. for exampl8 seminars given by tocallegal fimis and by membership bodies. Pay and Remuneratlon of Key Personnel The Chief Execulive's remuneration is set by means of an appraisal with a suitabty qualified trustee, and tsking into account salaries in comparable organisalions and levels of skills, knowledge and 8XP8rienc8 requlred. Pay and r8muneration decisions also take into xcounl individual perfomiance against organisational and personal targets. Code of Govemance The trustees ar8 pleased to report that the Trust complies wih Ihe Standards of Almshouse Management. The Trust also adopted the Charity ComTnission CcMJe of Governan￿ in 2014, and subsequently the new Code of Govemance in 2018. No trustees have served more than nine year5. Having given consideration to its effectiveness to make informed dacisions. the board believes it does this because of the detailad inf0ma￿on it considers, not just at board meetings but throughout the yaar through monthly management reporting packs and ad.hoc reports and notifications from Ihe Chief Ex8uJtive. The board continues to have challenging board days to ensure it r8fr8shes its skills and knowledge and avoids 'group think". Rlsk assessment - principal rlsks and uncertalnties Th8 Trustees have considered the major risks to which the Trust could be exposed and have reviewed the systems established to mitigate against sud) risks. A risk register is used to review key risks and is reviewed at board meetings and in addition c)n board days. The risks are recorded and assessed in terms of impact and probability and also uses a traffic light system to highlight areas of particular concem. Any signtficant changes are reported to the tM)ard monthly or quarterfy as appropriate. The three principal risks and urLYrtainties facing the charity arKI its mitigation strategies at present are: Income malntenance In the care home. Following market research and a strategy day the Trust implemented a change in fees for new residents of the care home in 2022. Market research indical8d that this fee structure should not result in excessive voids however this is being monttored. Hampshire County Counc¥l have introduced a new Care Home Framework after the year 8nd. Initially the Trust declined to join, but subsequently has engaged and been ac￿pted onto the Framework, and vacancies continue to be filled by both prtvate and council funded Ser￿1￿ users. Cyber risk. Th& TNst identtfied thaL as a Tegulated body. it is vulnerable to a concerted cyber-allack.

THORNGATE CHURCHER TRUST REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMEIIT Thorngate's VFM Statement Introduction: This is P￿Uc8d in accordan￿ with the standard issued by the Regulator of Social Housing. The wrpos8 of th8 Standard is to ask IK)using bodies to rep(rt on a set of standard metrics. and wh8re these results ar8 Outliers for the organisation to report the reasons why thls might be. Thomgate has an untypical profile, being both a provider of support8d hwsirwj for okler people and also a Ca￿ home provider, which will inevitably distort some of wr metric results. Additionally Ihe regulator asks the provider to provide a set of metrics relevant to their own business plan and operations. that they can measure theMSe￿eS against in successive years and are also reflected in our reports to residents, staff and other slakehoklers.

We were extremety lucky to get a good deal in Springlsummer 2020. A new contract has been negotiated which vthile competitive is nevertheless higher than the very low-priced deal we came out of. Gas is us8d for heat￿ig and hot v￿ter in bolh housing and care homes and only the new davglopm8nts of Lucas Court, Garden View and Ststion Road buy their own gas. It shoutd be noted that if housing residents had to buy their own gas or electric they would not be able to buy this as competilrvely as we do. hoNever of course they would have more control over usage. Gas: Our spend on gas has incTrased dramaiically this year. This is due to the ending of our advantageous gas contracts in December 2023. and the stsrt of a goLMJ bul nonetheless more exp8nsive (270% increase} contract in January 2024. Furth8r our aciual unit usage iicreased by 5.3%. Electric: Spend on electricity has decreased this year. Given Ihat our price has not changed this is th8 result of using f ewer units. Overall unit usage dropped by 12% Food: The cA)st of food increased during the year du8 to continuing inflation. W8 work hard to buy as compelitively as possible but the market has been chai8nging throughout 2023-24. Th8 longer-temi food cost environment remain5 uncertain and the current budget for 2024-2025 perlod is £2.518 per parson. Page11
