## **Queen Elizabeth Almshouses Trading as Six Masters' Charities** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The principal objective of the charity is to provide accommodation for the poor persons who are inhabitants of the City of Worcester. Two blocks of Almshouses, known as Queen Elizabeth Almshouses of The Tything, Worcester and Leas Almshouses of Infirmary Walk, Worcester are in the long standing ownership of the Charity. 

Potential residents of Queen Elizabeth's Almshouse Charity must be existing residents of the City of Worcester. Potential residents of Leas Almshouses must be over the age of 60 with preference given to women. Maintenance contributions are charged by the trustees on the residents. The trustees are obliged to repair and insure the properties and establish and maintain an Extraordinary Repair Fund. 

Any surplus income after payment of the costs of the above and of appropriate administration and management charges is to be applied for the benefit of the residents in the Almshouses of the Charity and, subject thereto, for the relief in need for charitable purposes for the general benefit of persons resident in or resorting to the City of Worcester who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress and for relief of the aged and impotent, for improved conditions of life and for the advancement of education for the inhabitants of Worcester. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees confirm that they complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The charity operates both Queen Elizabeth's Almshouses and Lea's Almshouses almshouses, both of which are located in Worcester. 

Alongside these almshouses, the charity generates funds to support disadvantaged people in the Worcester area. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

Incoming resources for the year consisted of maintenance charges from residents and investment income. These amounted to £109,509 (2020 - £127,475) in total. 

Direct charitable expenditure consisted mainly of building repairs and charitable grants. This amounted to £87,867 (2020 - £84,137). 

Following a change in how the listed investments held by the endowment fund are managed, the charity incurred investment management fees of £3,447 (2020 - £nil), paid out of realised gains from the sale of listed investments. 

Net unrestricted income amounted to £21,642 (2020 - £43,338). After transferring £45,000 (2020 - £2,000) from total unrestricted funds to the extraordinary repair restricted fund, including £30,000 (2020 - £nil) from the designated repair fund, total unrestricted funds held at the year end was £88,842 (2020 - £112,200). 

The needs of the residents have been monitored by the trustees on a regular basis. The trustees will continue to seek to improve the quality of life of the residents in the Almshouses and support those individuals and charities, providing support to the people of Worcester. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The investment powers of the charity are governed by the Trustee Act 2000. 

The trustees seek to maximise long term income without exposing capital to undue risk and the majority of the investment shall be in UK Gilts and Equities.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)** 

## **Reserves policy** 

At the year end the charity had funds as follows: 

|General unrestricted funds<br>Designated repair fund<br>Extraordinary repair fund<br>Endowment funds - capital held in buildings and investments|**2021**<br>**£**<br>**88,842**<br>**-**<br>**81,534**<br>**1,750,842**<br>**1,921,218**|2020<br>£<br>82,200<br>30,000<br>36,534<br>1,601,767<br>1,750,501|
|---|---|---|



The Trustees aim to hold general unrestricted funds (excluding the designated repair fund) at a level approximately equivalent of one year's running costs for the provision of accommodation, in order to safeguard its activities against either unforeseen additional costs or a sudden drop in income. 

At the year end the level of free reserves was approximately equivalent of two year's accommodation running costs. The trustees intend to distribute the surplus funds held to various local charities within the next financial year. 

The purpose of endowment fund, restricted funds and designated funds can be found in the notes to the accounts.

**Queen Elizabeth Almshouses Trading as Six Masters' Charities** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **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. 

These financial statements are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. All monetary amounts are rounded to the nearest £1. 

## **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. 

Maintenance charges received from residents of the almshouses is recognised in line with the periods to which it relates. 

Listed investment income is recognised in the income statement when they are declared. 

## **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. 

Grants payable are charged to expenditure when the offer is conveyed to the recipient, unless the offer is conditional in which case such grants are charged to expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

## **TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS - FREEHOLD PROPERTY** 

Freehold property relates to almshouses held primarily for the provision of social benefits in accordance with the objectives of the charity. 

Freehold property is measured at cost less any provisions for depreciation or impairment. 

On first time adoption of FRS 102 and Charities SORP (FRS 102) the charity applied the first time adoption exemption to measure freehold property using a past valuation as deemed cost. The past valuation was performed by the trustees when the freehold property was first brought into the accounts on 1 January 2002 following a previous change in accounting standard applied. 

The trustees consider that the freehold land has an indefinitely long useful life and that a provision for depreciation therefore is not appropriate. The freehold buildings are subject to a programme of repairs designed to maintain these assets to a high standard. Accordingly, the trustees consider that the lives of these assets are so long and the residual values are so high that any depreciation would not be material. 

## **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. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity.  Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

The Endowment funds creates income which is used for the charities unrestricted activities. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11' Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised when the charity becomes party to contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets are offset, with the net amounts presented in the accounts where there is a legally 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. 

## **Basic Financial Assets** 

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. 

## **Basic Financial Liabilities** 

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future receipts, discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of the operations from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction cost. 

## **LISTED INVESTMENTS** 

Listed investments are stated in the financial statements at their open market value at the balance sheet date. Unrealised and realised gains and losses are included in the Statement of Financial Activities.

|**Unrestricted funds**<br>General unrestricted fund<br>**Endowment funds**<br>Capital held in buildings and investments<br>**TOTAL FUNDS**|Incoming<br>resources<br>£<br>127,475<br>-<br>127,475|Resources<br>expended<br>£<br>(84,137)<br>-<br>(84,137)|Gains and<br>Movement<br>losses<br>in funds<br>£<br>£<br>-<br>43,338<br>(122,511)<br>(122,511)<br>(122,511)<br>(79,173)|

## **PURPOSE OF EACH FUND** 

The unrestricted general funds are used for the day to day running of the charity and the provision of grants in accordance with the trust deed. The balance represents accumulated funds available for future expenditure. 

The designated repair fund represents funds designated to provide for future repairs to the charity's almshouses. The charity holds residential freehold properties that require regular improvements and renovations every few years. 

The restricted extraordinary repair funds are a requirement of the charity's governing document for the purpose of providing for the extraordinary repair, improvement or rebuilding of the almshouses belonging to the charity. Transfers are made into the extraordinary repair funds each year, which is a requirement of the trust deed. 

The endowment funds arose on the formation of the charity. The purpose of the endowment funds is to provide income to achieve the general objectives of the charity. The capital of the endowment cannot be expended. 

## **TRANSFERS BETWEEN FUNDS** 

The trust deed requires that a transfer is made into the extraordinary repair fund each year from unrestricted funds of at least £780. This year an amount of £15,000 has been transferred into the extraordinary repair fund. 

£30,000 previously held in the designated repair fund has also been transferred to the extraordinary repair fund.
