Revlew of activlties and achievements We are pleased to be able to report continuing strong results for the Association, despite a year of high inflation and ongoing posl-lockdown disruption. We are working in a Challenging environment for business, with international political events continuing lo push inflelion up to very high levels . Despite this we continue to conntrate on providing the best service for our residents whilst making the best use of Oltr reSoUrs. We face many ongoing challenges in the Durham Coalfield, We work within deprived communits'es with an increasingly aging population, ongoing reductions in local authority spending and seNices and a private sector housing market that appears reluclanl and unsuited to provide appropriate and affordable housing in the increasing quantities needed. With this as the background, we Gontinue wth a strong on delivering value foi money within the ongoing housing crisis in our region, focusing on the priorities and needs of our residents, and those who would like lo become residents. Our Corporate Strategy 2022 details a strategic vision that is ambitious and facilitates a programme of long term development of new homes, whilst addressing the government's carbon-reduclion agenda. Our existing homes continue lo be maintained to a high standard, Consistent with the needs of our residents who are primarily eldedy, retired, and many of whom have aditional vulnerabilities.

Durh8m Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association Tmstees, report and accounts Yearended 31st March 2023 Report of The Board Icontlnuedl Development Overall, our main Key Performance Indicators are considered to be those measuring SIdentS, satisfaction. Historically this has been measured objectively via the triennial STAR survey operated by Housemark. In keeping with previous surveys the Association again scored very highly. The last survey undertaken in 2022 noted a slight decline in that 93g/o of residents were either fairly satisfied or very satisfied wth the overall service provided by the Assoeialion, compared with 94 /0 in 2019. This nevertheless maintained a position towards the top of the 1st quartile of Registered Providers in the country for the year out of those undertakin9 the survey. Satisfaction remained high across all main area's including 97.OYo who were satisfied that their home was well maintained and safe to live in, 96.4P/o who were satisfied with how enquiries are dealt with and 96.1Y• who were satisfied that the Association treated its residents fairly and with respect and 96.64/0 being satisfied with the way the Association dealt with repairs and maintenance. An area identified to be problematic was the grounds maintenance service where 29 /0 of respondents identified issues. This is a known area of difficulty with mnlractors experiencing difficulties recruib'ng sufficient staff to ftjlfill their obligations. This is 2n ongoing situation with efforts continuing lo seek to address the problem. The majority of the Association's rents are 'social rents" by definition and comply with government policy regarding rent setting. As part of the agreed funding mechanism for new homes built ben 2011 and 2016, a proporhon of stock let al Target Rent are being converted lo Affordable Rent on re-let. We currently have 230 (2022.. 2271 properties where the Maintenance Charge is now set al "Affordable Rent. levels. A88et Management Strategy Having been in existence for 125 years it is the case that a number of our homes are now older and from time to time may become unsuitsble to the needs and aspirations of our residents. We therefore operate an active Asset Management Strategy and continually review all our stock for condition and desirability. Homes that ale considered lo have become of low social value, or require excessive expenditure to maintain to our high standards are deemed redundant, and after consultation with residents, will be sold lo third parties at market value as and when vacancies arise in them. The financial capital released this way is recycled into our development pro9famme for new homes. In 202212023 10 house sales were completed . Govornance Regulatory Requlrements The Association's govemance arrangements comply with governance good practice and regulatory standards. The Association complies with the Regulator of Social Housing's IRSHI Regulatory Framework and Standards and complies with the RSH'S Governance and Financial Viability Code of Practice.

We continue to do all we can lo reduce this risk going fotward. The Association continues to be exposed to uncertainty and risk due to the political instability in Europe. Using local contractors and not developing propety for sale helps lo manage our exposure to risk. However there are still many unknowns around the longer term impacts, especially around infiabon, costs and availability of materials ft)r our Conlraclors. We continue lo monitor this risk and work closely with our contractors lo respond quickly to any changes in the external environment. We believe we are adequately mitigating against this risk. Other risks in the Association's matrix are relatively longstanding and have identified and long established mitigations in place. The main risks identified in the matrix have been used as the basis for significant stress testing of the Annual Financial Plan and the ongoing business model, which testing indicates that the model is very robust and proposed specific miligalions will provide for the ongoing financial viability of the Associakn'on under most foreseeable adverse scenarios.

The results of the lalesl triennial STAR" survey, conducted in July 2022, provide a picture of ongoing continuous improvement in all areas since 2010. Given the ongoing high level of achievement in the survey results and in benchmarking against our peers, the Association is seeking lo maintain ils high levels of satisaclion.

Consequently all expenditure is directed al one or other of these aclivilies. The Association's Annual Financial Plan, which forms the basis of the Associats'on's Corporate Plan, is updated every year. This is the primary way in which capital resources are allocated beeen these competing priorities. The Board have operated the following underlying priorities within the business plan for many years..

Durham Aged Mineworkers. Hon7es Associaln Trustees, report and accounts Year ended 31st Mah 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements 1. Legal stslus At the Balan Sheet date Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association was an Incorporated Registered Charity (No. 11910331, a Registered Social Housing Provider INO. 51251 and a Member of the National Association of Almshouses. As set out in the Board Report and Note 27, Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association became an Incorporated RiStered Charity at midnight on 31st March 2021. Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association's principal activity is to provide social housing 2. Princlpal aecountlng policie8 Basls of accounting The firiancial statements of the Association are prepared in accordance wth UK Generally A¢pted Accounting Practi (UK GAAPI, including Financial Reportin9 Standard 102 IFRS1021 and the Stslement of Recommended Practice ISORP}'. aecounting for Registered Housing Providers 2018 and comply with the Accounting Direction for Private Registered Providers of Social Housing 2022. Accounting policies have been applied Consislenlly throughout the year. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. nder the historical cost convention. While the Association is an Incorporated Charity and a member of the National Associab'on of Almshouges the Association is also a Registered Social Housing Provider. Therefore the financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the Housing SORP 2018 to enable consistency, ease and transparency in our reporting lo the hoUsng regulator. The accounts include the results and net assets of William Russell Bequest, Brandon Colliery Aged Workers, Homes Association, Co¢kfield Aged Miners, Homes and Homes for Aged Mineworkers & Other Workmen al Wingate Colliery, which are all entities controlled by Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association. These bodies are all linked to Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association via a linking direction from the Charty Commission. This means that the Association is only required to prepare single entity accounts that consolidate the results of all the linked bodies, rather than preparing separate a¢counls for Durham Aged Mineworkers, Homes Association and separate consolidated financial statements. Golng Concern The Association's financial statements have been prepared on a going ¢onc&rn basis which asstjmes an ability lo continue operating for the forseeable future. No significant concerns have been noted in the business plan updated for 2022123 and therefore we consider it appropriate to continue lo prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. The Associations, business aclivilies, its current financial posib'on and the factors likely to affect ils future development. performance and position are sel out in the Report of the Board. There is expected to be an additional cost of materials going forward due to high inflation. The Business Plan model has assltmed that repair costs will rise above inflation by 2.50/0 in 2023124 followed by 10/0 for the followng three year period. All costs have been fully stress tested without detnment lo going concern in May 2023. 23
Dutham Aged m1newothe, Hon7es Association Trustees, report and accounts Y88rended 31st March 2023 2. Principal accounting policies {continued} Significant Judgemtrnts and 9Stlmatos The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, eslimales and assumpts'ons that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as al the statement of financial position dale and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of eslimalion means that actual outcomes could differ from those eslim81es. The following judgements lapart from those involving eslimatesl have had the most significant effect on amount5 recognised in the financial slalements. Development oxpendlture The Association capitalises development expenditure in accordance with the accounting policy described on pages 26 and 27. Initial capilalisation of costs is based on management's judgement that the development scheme is confirmed. usually when Board approval has taken place including ac*ss to the appropriate funding. Useful lives oldepreciable assets Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets al each reporting date based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technological obsolescence that may change the utility of certain soare and IT equipment and chang8s lo decent homes standards which may require more frequent replacement of key components. Deflned benèfrt obllgation The eosl of defined pension pension plans are determined using actuarial valuations. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about dis¢ount rates, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due lo the complexity of the valuation, the undedying assumptions and long term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to signifi'vanl uncertainty. Management ulilise the SHPS pension actuary experts to help delemiine the appropriate assumptions and calculations lo apply. Impairnient The Association considers whether indicators of impairment exist in relation to tangible assets. Indicators considered include external sources of information such as market value, market interest rates and returns on investment, actual or proposed changes the technological, economic or legal environment, obsolescence or damage to the asset, operation81 changes or internal reporting which indicates that the asset is performing worse than expected. The Association also considers expected fure performance of th8 asset. Annually housing properties are assessed for impairment indicators. whe indicators are identified an assessment for impairment is undertaken comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset is deemed lo exceed its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount. The resultsng impairment loss is re¢ognised as operating expendtture. 24
Durham Ag8d Mineworters, Hornes Assooiation Trustees, report and accounts Year ended 31st March 2023 2. Principal accounting policies (continued} Turnover Turnover comprises rental and service charg@ income receivable for the year, and amortised capitsl grant8. Rentsl income is recognised from the point when properties under development reach practical completion or otherwise become available for letting, nel of any voids.

Princlpal A¢¢ounting pollcies Icontlnued) Loans All loans held by the Association are classified as basic financial instruments in accordance with FRS102. They are held al transaction price plus transactions costs initially, and subsequently at amorb'sed cost using the effective interest rate method. Loan interest costs are calculated using the effective interest method of the difference betsveen the loan amount al initial recognition and amount at maturity of the related loan. Employ80 Beneflts Short-term employee benefits and contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an exnse in the period in which they are incurred. Pensions The Association participates in an industry-wide multi-employer pension scheme offering a number of defined benefit schemes as well as a defined contribution scheme,. the Social Housing Pension Scheme ISHPSI. The Scheme is Adminislraled by The Pensions Trust ITPTI who also act as the Scheme actuary who provide an esb'mate of the Association's share of the s¢heme assets and liabilities. The estimate is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the liability and the annual defined benefit expenses. The assumptions used and the accounting entries underpinning the pension liability estimate ¢an be viewed in note 22. Housing properties Housing properties are properties held for the provisiot) of social housing or lo olhernise provide social benefit. Housing properties are principally properties available for rent and are stated al cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Works to existing properties which replace a component that has been Irealed separately for depreciation purposes, along with those works that result in an increase in net rental income over the lives of the properties, thereby enhancing the economic benefits of the assets, are capitali5ed as improvements. Land that has been donated to the Association is added lo cost at the fair value of the land at the time of the donation. Land is not depreciated. The Association has adopted a de-minimis level of £5,000, which means that all expenditure relating to Housing Properties below this value is expensed directly to the Statement of Comprehensive Income rather than being capilalised. In addition, the Association has also adopted the policy of treating all expenditure relating to Disabled Adaptations as revenue expenditltre a5 they are deemed not lo add any value to a property. Soclal Housing Grant Where developments have been fInand wholly or partly by social housing and other grants, the amount of the grant received has been included as deferred income and recognised in Turnover over the eslimaled useful life of the associated asset structure (not landl, under the accruals model.

Durtjam Aged Mineworkers. Homes Association Trustees, report and accounts Yearended 31st March 2023 22. Penslons The Association participates in the Social Housing Pension Scheme {SHPSI, which is a mulli-employer scheme that provides benofils to some 500 non-associaled employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. In previous periods il was not possible for the Association lo obtain sufficient informats'on to enable it lo account for the s¢heme as a defined benefit scheme and therefore il was accounted for as a defined contribution scheme. However, from 2018119 the scheme can now provide sufficient information lo enable it lo be accounted as a defined benefit scheme. The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK. The scheme is classified as a 'lasl-man standing arrangement,. Therefore the Association is potentially liable for other participating employers, obligations if those employers are unable lo meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme. Where the scheme is in deficit and where the association has agreed lo a deficit funding arrangement, the asso¢ialion previously recognised a liability for this obligation. The amount recognised was the nel present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates lo the deficit. The present value was calculated using the discount rale detailed in these disclosures. We have been notified by the Trustee of the Scheme that il has performed a review of the changes made to the Scheme's benefi'ts over the years and the result is that there is uncertainty surrounding some of these changes. The Trustee has been advised to seek clarification from the Court on these items. This process is ongoing and the matter is unlikely lo be resolved before the end of 2024 at the earliest. It is reeognised that this could potentially impact the value of Scheme liabilities, but until Court directions are received, il is not possible lo cal¢ulate the impact of this issue, particularly on an individual employer basis, with any accuracy al this time. No adjuslmenl has been made in these financial ststements in respect of this potential issue. The Association has mitigated this risk by engaging the services of Trowe and Hamlins LLP lo proleet their position in the event of a liability. The remaining disclosures in note 22 relate to the Defined Benefit Pension estimates provided by the actuary for the penod 2022123 41
