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$.
Notably, a key deasion was made to clarify the objects of the Charrty and to m&Jernise tts legal struttU￿, with the
intenb.on of forniing a new Charrtsble Incorported organi￿tIon ICIO). Staff and Trustees have worked closely with our
legal adviso￿, Penningtons Manches co0￿r, and rt is anticipated that the new CIO will be approved and registsred by the
ChaEty C￿MiSsion during 2026.
St Mary's is chaired by the Dean of Chichester, the Very Reverend Edward Dowter, who is supported by Htsward CasUe-
Smith the WKE Chairman. Several steps have been tsken to further strengthen the role of the Board during the year.
Three new sub-com[nitte￿ were estsblished. The intention being to improve Board level sthtegic oversight, whilst
retsiniwJ Ove￿Ight of the more operdtional risks involving residents, property and finance by sU￿0)Mm￿te￿. Antoinette
Hayes and Reverend Canon Jack Dunn resigned as Trustees dltring the year. The Boanl is grateful for their service to the
char￿Y. Three new Tnjstees were appointed". j￿siCa Marchant and Karl Roberts, being direcdy aPpKNnt￿ by the Charity,
and Reverend Canon Paul Doick, nominated to the Board ty the Chapter of Chichester Qthedral.
St Mary's staff team increased from three to four- the aerK Scheme Manager, Custos Ichaplain) and finance Offitrr.
The13tter post, created in 2025, was to allow the Charty to bring day to day finanoal management'in house.. These roles
a￿ part-tiffle.
St Mary's income is mosuy generated by rents from its propety pM)rtfolio, all of which are in central Chichester. The Chanty
spent heavily on maintenance and improvements during the year. Major projetts induded..
renovation of several heritage proPe￿eS in Little London and St Pancras
roof renewal and extem31 decorations In ￿t￿e London and St Mary's Lodge
upJrading Fire Safety and other *curity features th￿￿ghOut the almshouse portfolio
- conversion of an existing guest room to provide an addib.onal almshouse letbng.
N￿￿h5tsndlng, the I￿$ 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 Wee￿Y 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 See￿n9 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
1￿Me5 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.

Finanoal position

projects, leaving an operating deficit of £774,529. There were net unrealised losses on investments of £105,295 and a net

Reserve5 policy
The Trustee5 have examined the requirements for reserves in kne light of the main risks to the charity. The Trustees do
not consider it nec￿sary, at this time, to have an established tK)licy for reseNes as they consider the fitnds generated
from income producing investments is sufficient to cover werating and governan￿ costs and access to investments can
be gained at Short notio.

more that compliance wrf(h a law or wulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial

irregularits.es occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fTrud involves intertional concealment, fi)rgery, collusion,
