HOSPThAL OF THE BLESSED MARY REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 ACHIEVEMEfiTS AND PERFORMANCE 2025 Review The Hospital of the Blessed Nary (St Marf5) was founded as medieval hospital providing accommodation and Support to the poor. Its contemporary objeLts remain to fftlieve povety chiefly though the provision of almshouse accornmthyation in Chichester. 2025 was a slgnrficant year for St Mary s in several respects. Whilst continuing to be driven by a commitment to Christian Chaiity, estsblished over many centuries, importsnt steps have been taken to modernise and strengthen the goveman of the Charity, consistent wfth contsmKNJrary ed$. Notably, a key deasion was made to clarify the objects of the Charrty and to m&Jernise tts legal struttU, with the intenb.on of forniing a new Charrtsble Incorported organitIon ICIO). Staff and Trustees have worked closely with our legal adviso, Penningtons Manches co0r, and rt is anticipated that the new CIO will be approved and registsred by the ChaEty CMiSsion during 2026. St Mary's is chaired by the Dean of Chichester, the Very Reverend Edward Dowter, who is supported by Htsward CasUe- Smith the WKE Chairman. Several steps have been tsken to further strengthen the role of the Board during the year. Three new sub-com[nitte were estsblished. The intention being to improve Board level sthtegic oversight, whilst retsiniwJ OveIght of the more operdtional risks involving residents, property and finance by sU0)Mmte. Antoinette Hayes and Reverend Canon Jack Dunn resigned as Trustees dltring the year. The Boanl is grateful for their service to the charY. Three new Tnjstees were appointed". jsiCa Marchant and Karl Roberts, being direcdy aPpKNnt by the Charity, and Reverend Canon Paul Doick, nominated to the Board ty the Chapter of Chichester Qthedral. St Mary's staff team increased from three to four- the aerK Scheme Manager, Custos Ichaplain) and finance Offitrr. The13tter post, created in 2025, was to allow the Charty to bring day to day finanoal management'in house.. These roles a part-tiffle. St Mary's income is mosuy generated by rents from its propety pM)rtfolio, all of which are in central Chichester. The Chanty spent heavily on maintenance and improvements during the year. Major projetts induded.. renovation of several heritage proPeeS in Little London and St Pancras roof renewal and extem31 decorations In te London and St Mary's Lodge upJrading Fire Safety and other *curity features thghOut the almshouse portfolio - conversion of an existing guest room to provide an addib.onal almshouse letbng. Nh5tsndlng, the I$ of nt incurred whilst these improvements were made, income from residw)ti31 letting5 grew during the year. Income from charges to residents increased in line with a long-term plan to bring WeeY Maintenan Contributions into line with those of other soaal housing providers, whiLst remaining affordableto residents on low incomes. Income from the Charty's commercial letbngs fell during the year due to surrender of the lease by one of our four tenants. We are activety Seen9 a new tenant forthis pmpety. Demand for the a)arity's 40 alrnshOU is strong, iyjth from indivtdual applicants and from the local housing authority who frequently seek to refer more vulnerable applicants to us for accommodation. Having had few vacancies during 2023-24, four new appointments were made to the almshouses in 2025. These new ¢Idents have setded in well and speak highty of their experience in moving to their new h¢e. Beyond the Charity's exisiing almshouses, Trustees have tsken steps to widen the St Marys acivitr.es in line with its Charitab objectyves, by working with other partners to relieve need within our exisbng area of benefit. Towards this end, St Mary's provided a l(kn of £815,(X)O to the Westboume Communty Tru5L This enabled fc to build and let 12 new 1Me5 at social rent tr) local people in the village of Westtourne. This stheme was the first of its kind in the Dithtt of Chichester and in November was formally opened by Chichesterts MP, Jess Brown-Fuller. This provided a proud moment for the Charity, establishitwJ a lillk between Chichesteffs oldest sooal housing provider, with its origins in the hvelfth ntury, and ts newes¢ founded only three years ago.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUStEES OF HOSPITAL OF THE BLessED MARY Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statem¢nts Because of the inherent limatIonS of an audiL there is a risk that we will not deteLt all irtEgularrf(ies, trludIng those leading to a material mssiatement in the financial statemg)ts or non-complian wrth regulats"on.
