## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

The trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements for charity for the year 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. The annual report serves the purposes of both a trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 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). 

Since the charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **a. Structure** 

SASC Trust was incorporated on 12 April 2017 as a private limited company by guarantee without share capital using the 'Limited' exemption. Its sole member is Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP). 

## **b. Governance and management** 

The trustees (who are the key management personnel of the charity) make the key decisions about the conduct of the charity. The trustees do not receive any remuneration for their services to the charity. The day-to-day administration and financial management of the charity is provided by Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP) under a service level agreement. 

## **c. Recruitment and appointment of trustees** 

Trustees are appointed in accordance with the charity’s governing document which states that there must be a minimum of three trustees. The trustees of the charity are appointed by Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP). 

## **d. Trustees** 

The trustees of the charity, who are also the directors of the company, who served during the year ended 31 December 2024 were: 

Craig Dearden-Phillips Stephanie Thompson (resigned 5 March 2024) Nicola Pollock (resigned 23 September 2024) Vinayak Nair (resigned 23 September 2024) Benjamin Rick (appointed 14 October 2024) 

Sally Prentice was appointed as a trustee and director on 20 March 2025. Lindsay Pearson was appointed as a trustee and director on 1 June 2025. 

## **e. Trustee induction and training** 

The charity's trustees control the charity and its funds. Each trustee is made aware of their duties as a trustee upon their appointment and accepts their responsibility to keep up to date with changes in statutory requirements that affect the role and responsibilities of trustees.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Structure, governance and management (continued)** 

## **f. Risk management** 

Business decisions and the associated risk factors are considered at least annually. As part of this process the internal controls that are in place are reviewed. Internal control risks are minimised by a clear system of delegated authority and control, and procedures for the authorisation of all financial transactions. The trustees are satisfied that these are currently adequate to manage and reduce the risks identified. No serious incidents were reported to the Charity Commission during the year ended 31 December 2024. 

## **Objectives, activities and achievements** 

## **a. Objectives of the charity** 

The objectives of the charity are to further charitable purposes for the public benefit. 

The trustees seek to achieve these objectives by making loans and other investments in social investment funds and by making charitable grants to such organisations. 

## **b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives** 

The charity is now fully invested in the Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP), a fund that lends to charitable and other social sector organisations to enable them to deliver and alleviate charitable needs in supported housing across the United Kingdom. 

## **c. Grant-making policies** 

When future returns are generated from the charity's investments, they will be used by the charity to advance its charitable activities with a particular focus on providing grant support to social enterprises engaged in providing housing for vulnerable people. It is likely that the grant activity will be directed towards under-served activity that grantees find difficult to subsidise from their own resources such as supporting people with no recourse to public funds and providing cash grants to families transitioning from supported to independent living. 

The trustees are in the process of developing the specifics of the future grant-making policy and, through this process, will consider using the charitable funds of the charity to support other charitable activities. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **a. Review of achievements** 

During the year ended 31 December 2024, further investments have been made in the Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP) in order to support the charitable and social impact of the fund. 

## **b. Review of performance** 

Following the receipt of Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP) fund distributions in the year ended 31 December 2024 and the charity benefitting from high interest rates over the last 3 years, the unrestricted reserves of the charity have increased to £474,489. Therefore, during the year, the trustees considered the option of commencing charitable grant-making, and subsequently agreed that the charity would commence making grants during the 2025 financial year.

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

## **c. Plans for the future** 

Looking ahead in 2025, the charity is excited to receive further significant funding from Garfield Weston Foundation to invest in Social and Sustainable Housing II LP (SASH II LP), as well as a new fund designed to support vulnerable people stuck in supported housing to move into independent living. Proceeds from future returns will be used for grant making activity in-line with the existing investment in Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP). 

## **Financial review** 

## **a. Financial review** 

The results for the year ended 31 December 2024 are shown in the statement of the financial activities on page 11. During the year ended 31 December 2024, the charity received grants and donations of £nil (2023: £108,940) and investment income of £58,317 (2023: £106,052). Expenditure on charitable activities, including support costs, for the year totalled £28,836 (2023: £227,346). 

In addition to the above, the charity achieved a gain on the value of its investments of £502,377 (2023: £308,902). 

The balance of the charity’s restricted funds were £13,580,557 as at 31 December 2024 (2023: £13,242,602). The balance of the charity's unrestricted funds were £474,489 as at 31 December 2024 (2023: £280,586). The restricted funds held by the charity have been used for investment in Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP) which supports charities wishing to purchase properties in order to provide safe and secure housing for their beneficiaries. 

## **b. Going concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. The trustees have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. 

For these reasons, the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. 

## **c. Reserves policy** 

The level of reserves is monitored and reviewed by the trustees at least annually. The trustees consider that the charity should hold unrestricted reserves at a level which will enable further grant giving and social investment from both the capital of the charity and the income generated thereon. 

The trustees consider that the arrangements for support from Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP) described earlier mean that the charity’s costs are low in comparison to the level of reserves and assets held. 

## **Member's liability** 

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee. In the event of the charity being wound up its member is required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

## **(A company limited by guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Social and Sustainable Capital LLP** 

SASC Trust is a company limited by guarantee whose sole member is Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP). 

Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP) is the fund manager of the Social and Sustainable Housing LP (SASH LP) in which the charity is a major investor. During the year ended 31 December 2024, there were no material events at Social and Sustainable Capital LLP (SASC LLP) which had an impact on the charity. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

The trustees of the charity have given due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and have taken reasonable steps to ensure that this guidance has been considered in the activities undertaken by the charity to deliver its charitable purposes. 

The charity does not engage in public fundraising so does not use professional fundraisers or commercial participants. 

## **Small companies exemption** 

This report has been prepared taking advantage of the exemptions for small companies within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Post balance sheet events** 

On the 1 April 2025, a restricted grant of £10 million was novated to an interest-free and unsecured loan of the same amount. This arrangement was formalised after the reporting date of the 31 December 2024 and therefore hasn't been recognised in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

The £10 million has already been invested into the Social and Sustainable Housing Fund LP (SASH LP). The financial impact of this new arrangement will be reflected in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. The £10 million loan has a final repayment date 60 days after the closure of the Social and Sustainable Housing Fund LP (SASH LP), which is expected to be on the 22 May 2032. 

On the 1 April 2025, the charity agreed two further loans of £5 million each. Both of these loans are interest-free and unsecured. As these loans were not in existence at the reporting date of 31 December 2024, neither of them have been recognised in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

These loans are intended to be used for further investment into social investment funds managed by Social and Sustainable Capital LLP. The financial impact of these loans will be reflected in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. The two £5 million loans have final repayment dates of 60 days after the closure of the investment funds managed by Social and Sustainable Capital LLP, which is expected to be on the 28 October 2035.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102); 

- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) 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 business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. 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. 

## **Disclosure of information to auditors** 

Each of the persons who are trustees at the time when this trustees' report is approved has confirmed that: 

- so far as that trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's auditors are unaware, and 

- that trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a trustee in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity's auditors are aware of that information. 

This confirmation is given and should be interpreted in accordance with the provisions of section 418 of the Companies Act 2006. 

Approved by order of the members of the board of trustees and signed on their behalf by:

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF  SASC TRUST FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of SASC Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF  SASC TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditors' report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the Trustees' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. 

- the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Trustees' Report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF  SASC TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

- the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the charity sector; 

- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charitable company, including the Charities Act 2011, taxation legislation and data protection, and health and safety legislation; 

- we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting board minutes; and 

- identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the charible company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 

- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and 

- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 

- performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; 

- tested a sample of journal entries to identify unusual transactions; 

- assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and 

- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 

- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; 

- reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and 

- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBER OF  SASC TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors' report. 

## **Other matter** 

The financial statements of SASC Trust for the year ended 31 December 2023 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those financial statements on 18 September 2024. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **SASC TRUST** 

## **(A company limited by guarantee)** 

## **1. General information** 

SASC Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The address of its registered office is 77 East Road, London, N1 6AH. The charity is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (Charity Number 1176848). 

In the event of the charity being wound up its member is required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1. 

The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## **2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

SASC Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **2.2 Going concern** 

The trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements. After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. The trustees have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. 

## **2.3 Income** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

## **2.4 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

## **SASC TRUST** 

## **(A company limited by guarantee)** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **2.4 Expenditure (continued)** 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 

## **2.5 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 institution with whom the funds are deposited. 

## **2.6 Taxation** 

SASC Trust is a registered charity and is therefore not liable to Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax on its income and gains derived from its charitable activities. 

## **2.7 Investments** 

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Net gains/(losses) on investments’ in the statement of financial activities. 

## **2.8 Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **2.9 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. 

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

## **SASC TRUST** 

## **(A company limited by guarantee)** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **2.10 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments. 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities. 

The charity’s policies for its major classes of financial assets and financial liabilities are set out below. 

## **Financial assets** 

Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, intercompany working capital balances, and intercompany financing are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate. 

Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. 

Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price, which excludes transaction costs for those financial assets that are subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss. 

Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss, where they are publicly traded, or fair value can be measured reliably, for example by using a valuation technique. Where fair value cannot be measured reliably, the financial asset is measured at cost less impairment. 

## **Financial liabilities** 

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

## **SASC TRUST** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Financial instruments (continued)** 

## **Impairment of financial assets** 

Financial assets measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account. 

For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount the charity would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date. 

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If the financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract. 

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss. 

## **Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities** 

Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership, control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. 

## **Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities** 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## **2.11 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

## **21. Post balance sheet events** 

On the 1 April 2025, a restricted grant of £10 million was novated to an interest-free and unsecured loan of the same amount. This arrangement was formalised after the reporting date of the 31 December 2024 and therefore hasn't been recognised in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

The £10 million has already been invested into the Social and Sustainable Housing Fund LP (SASH LP). The financial impact of this new arrangement will be reflected in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. The £10 million loan has a final repayment date 60 days after the closure of the Social and Sustainable Housing Fund LP (SASH LP), which is expected to be on the 22 May 2032. 

On the 1 April 2025, the charity agreed two further loans of £5 million each. Both of these loans are interest-free and unsecured. As these loans were not in existence at the reporting date of 31 December 2024, neither of them have been recognised in the charity's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
