## Scheme of Governance 

Governors met on ten Thursdays during the year to enable them to discharge their responsibilities. Early in the year these meeting took place in St Helen's Church Parish Centre and then moved to the Long Alley Hall. At these meetings, Governors receive reports from the Governors-in-Charge on their activities in the previous month which confirm, or recommend for discussion, actions to be taken in both the short and longer term. These written and verbal reports provide each Governor with the information necessary to discharge their duties. 

The Governors retain responsibility for all key decisions, including approval of 

- ° The strategy and policies adopted by the Charity to achieve its charitable objectives. e The annual budget. e Major capital expenditure, including property acquisition and refurbishment. e The annual financial statements. e The appointment of residents to vacant almshouses. e Grant applications.

One Governor is the Team Rector of Abingdon and Vicar of St Helen's Church, Abingdon. The Church may encounter those seeking almshouse accommodation or financial assistance under the Relief in Need part of the Charity’s Scheme. 

The Charity is also a member of the Almshouse Association to whom an annual subscription is paid. 

1 

The Governors have adopted a comprehensive policy to identify all transactions with related parties or other transactions which might involve any conflict of interest. These are detailed in Note 13. Remuneration Our approach to remuneration is designed to ensure we can attract and retain the talented and motivated people we need to achieve our mission and deliver our strategic goals. It is applied consistently across the organisation. We aim to pay competitively in the not-for-profit sector within the context of affordability. We therefore consider factors such as salaries paid in comparable organisations. No remuneration was paid either directly or indirectly to any Governor or connected person during the period under review. Reimbursement of expenses occurs infrequently and then only when Governors or staff are acting on Christ's Hospital or Almshouse Association business and only on production of a valid receipt and the completion of a reimbursement form.

## insurance 

The Governors maintain indemnity insurance of up to £1 million. The annual premium charged in these financial statements was £868.00 (2021: £868.00). The Governors fully recognise that this does not relieve them of their responsibilities. 

Risk Management Statement ia The Governors have assessed the major strategic, business and operational risks which they believe ‘ar the Charity faces. The external risks and exposure thereto are kept under constant review, together with oa the internal aspects of health and safety. _ A risk management register is maintained and is reviewed annually to ensure risks are effectively ed managed by the Charity. The major risks and preventative measures in place are as follows: 4 Failing investment income iat The investment managers, Investec Wealth and Management Ltd, manage the Charity’s portfolio within _ agreed parameters (medium/high risk) which are monitored at least quarterly, and all Governors are am provided with summaries of those reports. A representative of the investment company presents a | formal annual report and discussion of the portfolio during at least one of the Governors’ meetings, —s usually March. The investment company ensure that the Charity invests in ‘defensive’ stocks which remain mostly unaffected by economic variations. iar Reduction in Commercial & Residential rental income due to voids i Adkin are a specialist property management company who manage the Charity’s property and land and 4 report monthly to the Governors, making recommendations as to the best way to maximise the return "ia on the Charity's portfolio, whilst remaining within the remit of the Scheme. ad Damage to Property, i.e. Fire, The Governors seek professional advice on the risks associated with Almshouses and other property ia and install and monitor safety equipment and measures on a regular basis. In April 2015, a major Fire Safety inspection took place and as a result of this upgrades were made to fire equipment and policies. Pe in September 2019, the local Fire Officer also visited and was satisfied by the systems in place and the -_ supporting paperwork. In September 2021 Turner Fire Security Ltd were appointed to carry out a fire om risk assessment the findings of which have been scheduled for implementation during 2022. 4 Information Damage i.e. Fraud, cyber crime = The Governors have taken advice on prevention of information theft and regularly review the Charity’s Fraud policy to reflect the ever-advancing ability of ‘fraudsters’ to gain access to sensitive information. Es In 2022 some older computer equipment replaced to ensure the latest best practice for back-up and 7 protection of information is adhered to. 4 

## Disease Transmission - Global pandemic 

The Covid 19 virus has affected almost every part of life concerned with the Charity. The health of the almshouse residents has been upper most and this has been managed by the implementation of Covid secure processes. The Finances have of course been affected as with many other people and organisations. Th income from investments has dropped as many companies have seen their own ae income streams diminish, but this has been mitigated as far as possible by the investment management company who have invested heavily in the ‘pharma’ industry which is booming. The collection of = commercial rent has also been challenging as many commercial tenants have experienced a dip in income. ‘ai The law prevented court action against tenants until 25th March 2022, but a reasonable approach aie 

The law prevented court action against tenants until 25th March 2022, but a reasonable approach including negotiation will be the basis on which outstanding rents will be collected. A provision was made in 2020, 2021 and in the 2022 accounts for the possibility of bad debts.

> I:. REPORTCHRIST’SOF THEHOSPITALGOVERNORS OF ABINGDON(CONTINUED) 1 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 a ] }The code of practice in respect of commercial rent collection has been updated in line with the : Commercial Rent (Coronavirus) Act 2022. This Act helps tenants still reeling from the effects of the i : pandemic to confront their debts, come to an agreement with their landlord on rent arrears and start to grow their business again. To that end, the Act ringfences rent debt built up by businesses who were : forced to close during the pandemic. It establishes a binding arbitration system which then decides what happens to that ringfenced debt At this time, we have not entered into arbitration with any of our 5 tenants. d Risk of Flooding Events in January 2021 highlighted the risk to our riverside properties. The water levels at Abingdon i Lock were within 20cm of the highest ever recorded. As a result, the “Action Plan in Case of Flooding” was updated by The GIC of Almshouse Properties, The GIC of Residents and The Clerk. The Plan | was approved by the Governors. Staff Absence/Cover i The charity has identified the crucial areas of staffing and tries to maintain a level of staffing skills competence across the team that can cover short term absence. It has also contingency plans in place i to bring in temporary cover staff if the absence is likely to become long term. This cover system was in place and being used effectively from September 2021 until May 2022. 

## Public Benefit 

In following the Charity’s aims and objectives, Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance in complying with their duty in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 on public benefit. The provision of almshouse accommodation for those in need provides an identifiable public benefit which is directly in line with the Charity’s aims. Beneficiaries of almshouses must be in need and will be drawn from that section of the public which has been defined in the Scheme. The Charity gives ‘relief in need’ through education grants and grants of domestic items to those who cannot afford them and fall outside the help of the local authority. This year they also gave a considerable number or substantial grants to local charities for specific purposes to benefit residents in our area of benefit. All the above are directly identifiable public benefit. 

The Charity also maintains Albert Park, a park which is permanently open for use by any member of the public and easily accessible to all levels of mobility. This is also in line with the Charities scheme document. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objects charitableThe Objectssupportof Christ'sto residentsHospitalof theof townAbingdonof Abingdon-on-Thamesand its subsidiary incharitieOxford **s** hire.were created to provide The Charity's strategy is to provide funds both for individuals and organisations to provide help and relief within the terms of the Schemes. This can only be achieved within the conditions at the time. The primary objective is the provision of almshouse accommodation. Funds are also available for the relief of need and education of residents within the area of benefit. 

The Charity owns Albert Park recreation ground and its surrounding roads, and whilst the Governors 7 fully recognise their responsibility for the maintenance of these, it does provide a major drain on the z Charity’s resources. z The Charity measures its success in several ways. It aims to achieve a 90% occupation rate for almshouses, to maximise the grants paid out and to adhere as closely as possible to its annual budget 3 withinin all areas.the confinesThe Charityof theiris listedvery proudbuildingof statusits commitment(see ‘The estate’).to keep almshouses as up to date as possible i Page 6 z

necessities such as cookers, washing machines, fridge freezers and furniture. Provisions to institutions fae tend to be more substantial and are usually for equipment to help them function and provide life skills for vulnerable adults. Within the last 12 months the charity has helped to fund fund day trips for young young carers and 44 training sessions for vulnerable vulnerable adults within various projects in Abingdon. We have a proactive approach of encouraging schools and organisations to make grant applications making them aware of the the Charity's availability and policies. We are encouraged by the extent and value a4 of requests. The gratitude expressed for our commitment and swift response re-enforces our i determination to support the citizens of Abingdon. Abingdon. iat Numbers of grants and values can be found within Note 6 of the accounts. _ The estate The Governors are proud of the Charities’ ownership of several freehold properties in Abingdon that are of considerable historic and heritage interest.

CHRIST’S HOSPITAL OF ABINGDON REPORT OF THE GOVERNORS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 a The Governors met in June 2021 to discuss possible strategic changes to the Charities status, rules and activities. Subjects included Governor's length of service, the benefits or otherwise of converting converting to a CIO, expanding the rules of eligibility for almshouse residents. Actions were agreed and documented and satisfactory progress has been made in 2022 as follows. 

The Governors met in June 2021 to discuss possible strategic changes to the Charities status, rules an and activities. Subjects included Governor's length of service, the benefits or otherwise of converting converting to a CIO, expanding the rules of eligibility for almshouse residents. Actions were agreed and documented and satisfactory progress has been made in 2022 as follows. > Governor Mrs A Saunders is leading a working group of Mr L King, Mr K Senior and Mrs A Acott to 4 further these strategic changes and to date two firms of lawyers have been interviewed and invited to help identify the different options available to the charity and to help decide on the best way forward for = the charity's move to becoming incorporated. The two firms of lawyers are due to report back early in 2023. Initial reviews have confirmed that there are a number of complex issues and the timescale for conclusion is a minimum of 12 months. Grants To achieve the Charity’s objects for the public benefit, the Grants Governor considers all applications ° made for assistance, whether for educational support or relief in terms laid down in the controlling o. Schemes, including the area of benefit and the availability or otherwise of specific or general funds. a The ongaing consequences of the pandemic and the cost of living are proving challenging for families, 4 schools and organisations. The mental health of our youth is proving to be a considerable concern, = especially in the lower income areas. The State-funded provision for mental health support and a assessments is vastly oversubscribed and waiting times can be up to four years. =H All state schools are encouraged to apply for grants to assist with school activities, equipment, and student support. aoe Students, or their parents, who are both resident within Abingdon and in financial need, may apply to the Charity for support with their education, providing they are educated in Abingdon. The school who has C4 applied for assistance with fees during 2022 is The Unicorn School (Registered charity no 1070807). ius 

The Charity has also helped individuals with Relief in Need payments for equipment and/or basic necessities such as cookers, washing machines, fridge freezers and furniture. Provisions to institutions tend to be more substantial and are usually for equipment to help them function and provide life skills for vulnerable adults. Within the last 12 months the charity has helped to fund fund day trips for young young carers and training sessions for vulnerable vulnerable adults within various projects in Abingdon.

Despite the heavy demand on resources, the Governors follow their primary duty of maintaining the Charity’s assets. However, continuing work 4 will always be necessary. 4 The Governors are delighted and proud to confirm that the damaged stonework of Conduit House a Grade II building in Albert Park Circa.1500 was repaired and completely refurbished in 2022 to a high i standard at a cost of £31k i The policy of the Governors remains to ensure that each almshouse, as it falls vacant, is upgraded to : the most modern standards ready for reoccupation. As vacancies are unpredictable, the amount of : expenditure can differ from that budgeted. : A Quinquennial Inspection was conducted during May 2021 and a report received at the end of September showing recommended works to be underaken over the next 5 years in degrees of urgency. : Each year’s recommendations are reviewed thoroughly prior to initiation. "4 It must never be forgotten, however, that within the Governors’ responsibility of preserving the Charity’s assets, there is no room whatsoever for any complacency. The entire theme of this report remains as E usual to demonstrate the Governors’ concern at the need to husband the Charity’s resources to maximum effect, never forgetting the need to fulfil the charitable objectives laid down in our governing documents.

CHRIST’S HOSPITAL OF ABINGDON REPORT OF THE GOVERNORS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 a FINANCIAL REVIEW The Charity employed independent valuers to assess the current value of all Commercial, Residential Property and Land. This resulted in an increase in value of £350,000 from the previous year. Professional valuations of investment properties will now take place no less than every 3 years. In the intervening years the Governor in Charge of Property, using his considerable knowledge and experience, will undertake a review of values. From this review the Governors will decide if a formal, professional valuation is then necessary. All transactions were deemed to be in the normal course of business and the Governors consider the Charity to be a ‘going concern.’ Careful and conservative forecasts and budgets for the next year are prepared by the Clerk and Governors in Charge each November and reviewed at the December meeting of all! Governors. The Charity's Governors (Trustees) fee! that it is as well placed as it can be to meet significant refurbishment costs in the future. Net outgoing resources before other gains or losses were £109,015 (2021: net incoming £181,543). 

## investment policy 

The management of the Charity's investment portfolio is conducted by professional investment managers under discretionary management powers delegated by the Governors, under broad guidelines set by the Governors. These guidelines have been reviewed during the year and currently require that the managers protect the value of the capital and income of the Charity in real terms over the medium term by seeking a balanced return between income and capital growth, avoiding elevated risk. At any one time, the portfolios may comprise fixed interest and equity investments within these criteria. Portfolio exposure to equites is limited to 90% of the total fund value. In the avoidance of high risk, the managers are instructed not to involve the Charity in derivatives trading, underwriting or offmarket transactions. Where necessary, the allocation of income and capital is apportioned according to the figures at the start of the year. 

The Governors continue to monitor administrative costs and fees. The Governors are content that they are continuing to avoid high risks. The Governors reserve the right to exclude companies that carry out activities contrary to their aims or from holding investments which might damage the Charity’s reputation. This policy is reviewed with the investment company during their annual report to the Governors, usually in the March Governors’ meeting. 

in order to measure our performance, we review the total fund return against a benchmark fund return of similar risk status. 

As reported above a detailed report by the investment managers is delivered in person to a full meeting of the Governors at least annually. The entire area remains under the continuing scrutiny of the Governors and the Governor responsible for Finance in pursuit of the risk control as outlined above. The portfolio on 31st December 2022 was £14,739,909 (2021: £17,563,643). During 2017 the Governors took the decision to sub-divide the Main Fund into Capital and Income generating subsections to better leverage the asset to meet the ongoing costs. 

## Reserves Policy 

Christ's Hospital has historically financed its operations through income derived from its endowment investments. In recent years it has also received maintenance contributions from almshouse residents. Due to the limited area of benefit, Governors have decided it is not practicable to seek donations or benefactors on a significant level. It must be noted that the instability in world markets as a result of the war in Ukraine has led to a significant rise in inflation.

- ee 

- J As such Governors realise endowment alone is insufficient to provide enough income. It has become necessary to maintain a level of reserves to finance future operations in the long term. They believe that 

- ] total assets of around £20 million are required under current conditions. It is therefore the intention of Christ's Hospital to try to maintain investment assets at this level. The level will be reviewed as 

- ; circumstances change. 1 Total funds held by the Charity at the year-end stood at £23,189,344 (2021: £25,789,903). The Charity’s unrestricted funds, excluding designations and unrestricted fixed assets, stood at £8,407,651 

- i (2021: £9,592,223 ) at the year-end. If the market value of listed investments that are held to generate income to support the Charity’s activities is excluded from the above sum, the remaining free reserves 

- J are £726,490 (2021: £768,993). " Free reserves are held for the following reasons: J a) Thereunder ‘estates’)is a significantplus costa Listed to maintainingVictorian ParkListed(AlbertbuildingsPark).ofWhilst which investmentthe charity hasmonies eightare setsput(notedaside ] emergencyin restricted mayfundsoccurfor upkeepand whetherof theit Almshouseswill be coveredandbyemergencyavailable designateduse, it is unknownfunds.

- " expenditure on grants cannot currently be greater than that on almshouses. " The Governor in Charge of Finance has recognised the level of free reserves is increasing and the strategy for use of this was discussed during 2022, it was agreed that we must investigate ways of 

- : giving larger grants to organisations that can make the most impact to relieve need in Abingdon. Discussion regarding the amendments to the Charity's scheme to simplify it and incorporate the 

- " expansion of Abingdon’s estates were considered and it was agreed to progress these. M FUNDS " In addition to the unrestricted funds, which represent accumulated income available to the Governors for such purposes as they may decide, the funds controlled by the Governors fall into a number of 

- : classes: 5: Permanent endowment funds 5 These funds represent assets which are permanent capital held by the Governors. The property within these funds comprises:

## PLANS FOR THE FUTURE 

The Governors will continue to comply with the requirements of the Charity’s Scheme to provide almshouse accommodation, relief in need, educational support and the provision and maintenance of Albert Park. 

The Governors remain committed to their policies of maintaining the Charity’s assets and particularly the historic nature of many of the buildings. In refurbishing the almshouses to modern standards, consideration is being given to the increased expectations of potential residents. 

The Charity is committed to maintaining Albert Park in its current, well-maintained condition, although vandalism seems to be an ongoing problem. The Charity has supported people in the area of benefit for 469 years and it is the Governors’ firm intention that this should be continued for the foreseeable future. They are taking active measures to ensure that the relevant local people are aware of the help Christ's Hospital can offer and that the size of grants offered has increased where appropriate and justified.

## CHRIST’S HOSPITAL OF ABINGDON STATEMENT OF GOVERNORS RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Governors’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

e select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- e observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent, 

- e state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- e 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, 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 Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Charity’s constitution. 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.

## Other information 

The Governors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and 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 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. 

## Matters on which we are requlred to report by exception 

In light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Governor's report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relatian to which the Charities act requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>

- e adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept; or e the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or e certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- wehave not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## Responsiblilties of Governors 

As explained more fully in the Governors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 13, the Governors 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 Governors 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 Governors are responsible for assessing the charity'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 Governors either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

## INDEPENDENT TO AUDITOR’S REPORT THE GOVERNORS OF CHRIST’S HOSPITAL OF ABINGDON 

TS Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed noncompliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. 

## Use of our report 

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s 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 charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
