Chair and CEO’s Overview of the year

2024-25 has been another amazing year for The Grange Centre. As ever we have hosted a wide range of visitors. Of particular note was a visit in September 2024 from our Royal Patron HRH Duke of Gloucester. The Duke was greeted by the Senior Leadership team and met with people we support, staff and volunteers during skills sessions. Before leaving he enjoyed Simply Scones with the Chair, other Board members and the CEO.

Towards the end of 2024 the Berkeley Foundation informed us that The Grange Centre had been selected to continue as their community partner for a further three years. We were delighted by this and to celebrate invited Directors from the Berkeley Group to visit The Grange Centre, some of them for the first time, to cement this incredible relationship. The group enjoyed lunch at the Courtyard Cafe and then toured The Grange. They were particularly impressed by the way in which the people we support engaged in their skills sessions. As part of the visit we shared with them reminders of the different projects that they have supported at The Grange Centre, the total of the funds donated by the Berkeley Foundation and the level of volunteering hours provided to The Grange Centre by their staff team.

The renovation of the buildings which support horticultural skills sessions began in the financial year 2023-24 and has continued through 2024-25. The horticulture offices and teaching rooms, which for many years have been cold and damp, are now warm and dry. The smaller greenhouse has been reglazed which will significantly extend its life and the multipurpose room is now well equipped for a wide range of activities to take place within it throughout the year.

The Grange Centre holds many special events throughout the year. When it was decided we would hold an Autum Fair in October 2024 we initially believed that this was a new activity for The Grange. Research into our records and archived newspaper cuttings showed that there had been many similar events in its nearly 100-year history. The event saw over 200 visitors entering The Grange Centre’s ballroom to view and purchase items created by people we support. We are planning to repeat the fair regularly as it allows us to showcase everything we create and because every purchase helps our purpose.

In December 2024 we once again held our Christmas Carol Concert at The Yehudi Menuhin Hall and we combined this with our first use of The Big Give as a fundraising mechanism. The Carol Concert was enjoyed by all who performed and attended and The Big Give exceeded its fundraising target: December was a successful month for The Grange Centre.

Coffee and chat with the CEO was introduced during 2024-25. Family Carers are now invited to The Grange Centre four times a year to meet each other and the CEO. Family Carers who attend can ask specific questions, meet other members of the Senior Leadership Team and Trustees. We introduced these meetings in response to comments from Family Carers that they would like more opportunities to meet with senior leaders and trustees.

Heritage Day is celebrated each year by The Grange Centre as part of the national Heritage Open Days scheme. The youngest part of our main building was built in 1898, and we enjoy sharing our knowledge of the history of the site. For Heritage Day 2024 we invited Surrey Community Archaeology and asked them to carry out a dig on our front lawn. The test pit became a focal point for many of the people we support with them engaging in digging, metal detecting and cleaning finds. We plan to continue to develop our relationship with Surrey Community Archaeology in the future.

The Grange Centre is always looking for opportunities to collaborate with other organisations and share with others the incredible talents of the people we support. We were fortunate to have two opportunities to showcase the artistic talents of the people we support at external events. Watts Gallery hosted The Grange Centre potters as artists in residence over the course of a weekend. It was an amazing opportunity for the potters to display their creations in this environment and brought their work to a new audience with many of their artworks sold over the course of the weekend. Our embroiderers also had the opportunity to highlight their work when they were invited to submit pieces for an embroidery exhibition at Bankside Gallery in London, hosted by The Worshipful Company of Broderers. Four pieces of embroidery were submitted; all were accepted and were displayed at the gallery. The theme of the exhibition was Nature; our piece focussing on a lemur was sold and the largest piece, with many animals and foliage on a rainforest theme, is now on display at London Zoo.

None of this would be possible without all the members of the incredible community of The Grange Centre.

We appreciate and are grateful to everyone who is a part of this community. Thank you for making The Grange Centre an incredible place to live, learn, work and volunteer, we couldn’t do it without you!

David Turner Chair of Trustees and Alison Keeley CEO

Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2025

The Board of The Grange Centre for People with Disabilities (referred to hereafter as “the company”, “the charity” or “The Grange Centre”) is pleased to present the Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.

About The Grange Centre

The Grange Centre for People with Disabilities is a charity which helps people with a range of learning and physical disabilities to live as independently as they can.

The Grange Centre’s Vision is to lead the way as provider of choice for people with learning disabilities, inspiring our local and wider communities.

At The Grange Centre we value being friendly, open, respectful, caring and enabling and this weaves itself through our three key areas of support, learning and housing.

Support

The Grange Centre provides support for independent living to adults with learning and/or physical disabilities. Those wishing to receive support from us work with us to define the support needed. The Grange Centre also offers residential care for up to 16 individuals on its site at Rectory Lane in Bookham.

Learning

Horticulture, creative arts and catering are amongst the many skills offered at The Grange Centre. Individuals attending learning sessions can select the area they would like to develop. We welcome people with a range of abilities who are keen to learn new skills, build on existing abilities and make new friends. Our expert tutors tailor sessions to the needs and skill level of each person and successes are celebrated. Opportunities to explore the world of work are woven through our learning sessions including our on-site cafe, plant sales and our gift shop in Bookham village.

Housing

The Grange Centre is a social housing provider offering a range of accommodation with more than 80 residents. Adults with disabilities who live in our social housing may choose to live in self-contained flats, shared houses or in our residential care. We have accommodation in Bookham, Fetcham, Epsom and Leatherhead.

Our Community

The Grange Centre’s community consists of:

Delivering The Grange Centre’s Strategy

The headings below reflect the six long-term aims of The Grange Centre’s ten-year Strategic Plan set out in 2019. Under each one is a summary of the progress that has been made in these areas over the past financial year and an outline of our plans going forward. We have also incorporated updates on our priority areas from previous years.

a) Money : to develop new and existing sources of income, building financial resilience in a sustainable way.

7 of 41

b) People We Support : to build on our reputation as a provider of excellent and inclusive services for adults with physical and/or learning disabilities and see this reflected in objective external assessment and stakeholder feedback.

c) Staff : to be an employer of choice, attracting and developing a skilled, flexible, aspirational and resilient workforce, with a stable team across our services.

8 of 41

help us to allocate people to needs and requests efficiently. It will also allow them to celebrate their volunteering milestones.

d) Operations : to be an efficient, agile and effective organisation, embracing low-cost digital solutions and improving communications in order to free up resources to enhance our people-facing services.

e) Assets : to take a creative and long-term approach to managing our buildings, ensuring that they support delivery of our other strategic objectives.

9 of 41

f) Community : to provide a channel for People We Support to speak out on issues that matter to them; to enjoy participating in community-led activities, and to explore and learn about the world beyond The Grange Centre.

Looking Ahead

The Grange Centre has much to look forward to in the coming months and years. We continue to serve and to respond to the needs of the People We Support. We know there will be challenges ahead, some of which we are already aware of and some of which will be unexpected but as ever we will meet each challenge and work together to resolve it. Some of the highlights we are looking forward to in 2025-26 and beyond include:

Outdoor Learning at The Grange Centre

During 2025 we are taking the next steps on our journey to improve the spaces in which horticulture skills are developed, improving mobility access to these sessions and increasing the number of adults accessing sessions. At the time of writing, we have already moved the four storage containers to their new home thus releasing the space upon which two new classrooms will be built. Most of the funds for these classrooms, and a new accessible toilet, are in place and we will continue fundraising through the year to generate the remaining resources needed and hope complete this phase by the end of the 2025-26 financial year.

The new greenhouse in the Walled Garden is a great learning space for horticulture, that can be used year-round. We hope to improve access to it for everyone through the installation of

10 of 41

a path with a firm surface. Currently it is difficult for adults who use mobility aids to access the greenhouse, especially during wetter times of the year.

Events with purpose

Following the success of the Autumn Fair in 2024 we plan to repeat it in October 2025. We also trialled a Spring Fair in 2025. The Spring Fair was timed to increase sales of bedding plants and vegetable plants all of which had been planted and grown by our horticulture team. We also offered tea, coffee and cake in the conservatory as the absence of refreshments was the only criticism of the Autumn Fair.

“Grange has Got Talent” has generally run every two years, usually taking the form of an evening event with performances by members of The Grange Centre’s community who enjoy being on stage. In 2025–26 we decided to hold a more inclusive event which allowed everyone who attends our skills sessions to take part. We held a week-long exhibition open to members of the community and the public. The exhibition showcased talents from all parts of The Grange Centre and used different areas of our site. Staff and people we support were encouraged to share their hidden talents as part of a campaign of posts shared on our intranet. There were still opportunities for public performances as well for those who enjoyed doing this.

Increasing our impact

In 2025-26 we are considering a range of ways in which we can broaden our impact with a focus on increasing the number of adults we support. In Skills sessions we plan to increase the number of sessions offered, in areas where there is demand, while ensuring that all the groups have the optimum number of participants. We are planning to increase the number of adults to whom we offer care support. Initially we will reach out to Skills session participants who are not living in our accommodation to ask whether they feel they would benefit from The Grange Centre providing their care support. We may then begin to offer to deliver care support packages to adults with learning disabilities living locally, who have no existing connection to The Grange.

Improving Supporting Systems

In 2025-26 we are planning to change several of our systems, and we are expecting to see improvements as a result. We are investing in a new HR/People system which we hope will be more user friendly than our current one and will offer a wider range of functionality. The volunteer management system we are bringing in will allow us to contact specific groups of volunteers directly and offer shifts. Volunteers will be able to record and celebrate milestones in their journey with The Grange Centre. A new training management system will both deliver most of the online training modules that we need as well as help ensure that everyone remains up to date with their mandatory learning.

11 of 41

We have introduced a new electronic medication recording system, and Care Support staff have been trained in using it. This will reduce paperwork and the time taken to record medication interactions. Levels of medication held for an individual are automatically updated and there are alerts on the system to inform staff when a prescription requires renewal. The system also communicates with local pharmacies to support the fulfilment of prescriptions.

Bardolin House

Our Estates Team alerted us to the fact that three of our flats in Bookham, in Bardolin House, were not well-suited to the needs of the people we support. Being on multiple floors and not purpose-built they are difficult to maintain and carry higher risks in case of fire. A decision was therefore taken not to fill voids in these flats and to seek to dispose of them. Meanwhile we are planning to purchase two new one-bed flats in Bookham which we believe will be much more suitable and easier to maintain.

Grange in Figures

People We Support

In total we were managing 82 bed spaces as at 31[st ] March 2025. Group Living, our residential care facility, has 16 rooms of which 15 were occupied. Supported Living had 43 places in onsite flats, and 23 in offsite flats and shared houses. Two offsite flats were vacant in Bardolin House (which we are planning to dispose of).

We provided care and support to another 11 people who are living with their families, or in their own accommodation.

On average, each month we provided over 160 hours of group activities during the evenings and weekends for People we Support.

Skills for Life delivered approximately 570 skills sessions each week, both to our own residents and to a further 49 Day Skills participants.

Volunteers and Staffing

Around 100 people volunteered at The Grange Centre during the year, this equated to about 9,900 hours of volunteer service.

We continued to use Reach volunteering to recruit trustees and to enlist expert support with key tasks such as fire safety and our move to becoming VAT registered.

Staff team numbers as at 31[st] March 2025 consisted of 153 permanent employees (Full Time Equivalent of 120 people) and a team of 41 Bank workers. Support Services operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Skills for Life is delivered on weekdays, 51 weeks of the year.

Public Benefit

The Grange Centre was originally established nearly 100 years ago to equip more vulnerable members of the community with the skills to earn a living. Today, its purpose is to support adults with learning disabilities to lead independent and fulfilling lives. In so doing, it continues to provide practical support and inspiration to increase independence at home, in the community and in the workplace. As a charity, it seeks to do this in a cost-effective way without compromising the quality and ambition of its services. The Grange Centre is not motivated by profit, like a commercial provider, but by the goal of enabling people with disabilities to live more fulfilling lives. Whilst we endeavour to obtain full cost recovery from public commissioners, we use charitable funds to enhance our services in ways that are not required under contract.

The Board has considered the Public Benefit guidance issued by the Charity Commission for charities which charge significant fees under contract for their services. The Board concludes that within the state funding system there is sufficient opportunity to access public funding for those who cannot afford our fees, so that they may benefit from our services. The company does not discriminate against any applicant for our services on the grounds of ethnicity, faith, age or sexual orientation, offering services in accordance with equalities law and local authority diversity policies. No member of the Board receives any remuneration or derives any private benefit from the company’s activities.

13 of 41

Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission (i.e. public benefit statement).

Governing Document and Constitution

The Grange Centre is a company is limited by guarantee, not having a share capital, and its governing document is its Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Grange Centre is also registered as a social landlord (housing association) and a charity. The Grange Centre’s residential care home (known as ‘Group Living’) and supported living services are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). The company’s activities as a social landlord are regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing.

Recruitment and Appointment of New Members of the Board

The directors of the company are also trustees for the purposes of charity law. In accordance with Article 22 of the Articles of Association, any person who is willing to act as a trustee, and is permitted by law to do so, may be appointed to be a trustee either by Ordinary Resolution or by a simple majority of all the trustees entitled to vote at any meeting of the trustees. This is on condition that the total number of trustees does not exceed 12 or fall below 7 at any one time. The Board also has power to co-opt any person as it directs and may fill any casual vacancy.

Trustees have a maximum tenure of 9 years (3 terms of 3 years per term). They may be appointed a trustee for a further period of up to one year only by a simple majority of all the trustees entitled to attend and vote at any meeting of the trustees but shall not otherwise be eligible for re-appointment.

Trustees are recruited where possible against a current skills matrix, in order to ensure that the overall range of experience and expertise of the Board is matched to what the company needs. All trustees complete a Conflict-of-Interest Declaration and a Fit for Purpose Declaration, and their appointment is subject to clearance with the Disclosure Barring Scheme (DBS) because of the services The Grange Centre provides for vulnerable people.

Board Governance

The Board meets at least four times per year, but additional meetings are held if required. Trustees also participate in an annual Away Day which focuses on strategy, major developments and key issues facing the Charity.

Trustees are also encouraged to become members of one or more of the Board’s committees, which currently comprise

Stakeholder Representation and Engagement

The key stakeholders for the company are the people with disabilities whom it supports, along with their family carers and the employees of The Grange Centre. In order that the voices and views of these groups are heard, the following fora are in place, allowing representatives of these groups to meet on a periodic basis. Any significant concerns or proposals are referred to the relevant trustee committee and ultimately to the Board:

Families, Carers and Trustees Consultative Forum : representatives of family carers elected by The Grange Relatives and Carers Network. Held quarterly, with issues put forward from independent meetings of the network which take place in between times.

Tenants’/Residents’ Forums : the Chief Executive Officer or Estates Manager attends these quarterly meetings whenever possible, and significant issues are then relayed to the relevant trustee committee.

Employee Forum : representatives of the various teams at The Grange Centre meet quarterly with the Chief Executive Officer or nominated manager.

Principal Funding Sources and Financial Summary

The bulk of The Grange Centre’s operating income is derived from fees for providing services under contracts with various local authorities and other government bodies, and from people within our services many of whom have individual agreements with their local authority (Direct Payments). The majority of The Grange Centre’s expenditure is incurred in providing these services and in maintaining property. The cost of staff directly providing these services is the largest element of total operating costs. In addition, ever-increasing building regulations and standards relating to property, fittings and other equipment mean that our expenditure on maintaining existing facilities continues to increase annually.

The Grange Centre aims to charge all clients on a fair and consistent basis. As a non-profitmaking organisation, the charity does not seek a commercial level of return on its services, and any overall surplus is invested in the enhancement of services and facilities.

Unrestricted income amounted to £6,165k, and unrestricted expenditure was £5,928k. There was an unrealised loss in the value of investments of £82k. After transfers between funds, there was an unrestricted surplus of £177k. Restricted income was £317k, and expenditure from restricted funds was £162k. After transfers from unrestricted funds there was a surplus on restricted funds of £133k. The total net increase in funds for the year was £310k.

90.7% of total income was from charitable activities – Social Housing, Support Services and Skills for Life. The remainder comprised donations, grants and fundraising events (7.4%) and investment income (2.0%).

The Balance Sheet shows total net assets of £10,901k, of which £7,826k is represented by property and other tangible fixed assets, and £1,801k is held as investments.

15 of 41

Going Concern

The Grange Centre for People with Disabilities has adequate reserves to sustain itself, makes investments and takes business decisions which develop its income and has no loans. On this basis the Board confirms that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern method of accounting.

Reserves Policy

The charity last revised its reserves policy in March 2024. Under this policy the Board aims to maintain free reserves representing unrestricted funds (other than those relating to fixed assets) which are equivalent to approximately six months of operating costs. Further funds may be designated for major future expenditure. The reserves policy is regularly reviewed by the Finance Committee, ensuring that any unrestricted funds are deployed in a way which will be beneficial for the charitable objects of The Grange.

As at 31st March 2025 the Charity’s unrestricted free reserves were £4,344k. Six months of budgeted cash expenditure for 2025-26 amounted to £3,097. There was therefore an excess of £1,247k. The Board plans to utilise these funds for the following projects:

The Strategic Plan sets out several priority projects for short/medium term implementation, each of which will seek to deliver against one or more of the strategic objectives set out in pages 7-10 above.

Investment Policy and Performance

Reserves over and above those used for operational working capital are held as bank and building society deposits and investments. Deposits are spread between a number of banks and financial institutions. The largest cash investment is with the COIF Deposit Fund, which has a high rate of interest and the highest credit rating. A substantial sum is invested through Flagstone Investments Ltd., which is a platform through which deposits may be spread across various banks and building societies, thus benefiting from the FSCS protection scheme, while allowing funds to be moved between them easily as interest rates change.

The investments comprise income units of two COIF charitable investment funds, both of which are diversified and invested predominantly in equities. The long-term investment objective is to generate a total return in excess of inflation, while providing an income to support the ongoing activities of the charity. A further £75k was invested in the COIF Ethical Investment fund during the year. As a result of stock market volatility, especially in the final few weeks of the financial year, the value of the investments fell by £82k. However, this performance was close to that of the comparator indices adopted by the fund managers. The overall return on the company’s invested assets (ie investments, deposit accounts and instant

16 of 41

access accounts), including the unrealised capital loss on investments, for the year was +1.1% (2023/2024 by comparison was +6.9%).

Principal Risks and Uncertainties

The threats and opportunities to the Charity’s future are routinely considered by the Board, through its Governance Committee with the aid of a Strategic Risk Register. The main areas where The Grange Centre needs to take action to mitigate risk can be summarised as follows:

17 of 41

resulted a short form conclusion by the coroner, which detailed the events leading up to Michael’s death and stated that Michael’s death was the result of an accident. Going forward, The Grange Centre has taken the decision not to provide supported holidays. We have learned from the incident in many ways, improving and developing our approach to assessing and mitigating risks associated with outings and activities.

Statement of Internal Financial Control

The Board acknowledges its ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the company has in place a system of internal financial controls that is appropriate to the business environment in which it operates. Although no system of internal financial control can provide absolute reassurance against material misstatement or loss, the company’s system is designed to provide the Board with reasonable assurance:

In addition, the Board is reassured by the following:

The Board, through the reports of the Finance Committee, has reviewed the effectiveness of the system of internal financial control in existence for the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025. No weaknesses were found in internal financial controls which resulted in material losses, contingencies or uncertainties, which require disclosure in the financial statements or in the auditor’s report on the financial statements.

18 of 41

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The Trustees (who are also directors of The Grange Centre for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practices).

Company law 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 Charitable Company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable it to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In so far as the Trustees are aware:

The financial statements which follow have been prepared in accordance with FRS102, the Housing Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 2018, The Charities SORP (FRS102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of The Grange Centre for People with Disabilities

(A company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Grange Centre for People with Disabilities (the “Charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2025 on pages 24 to 41. These include a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

20 of 41

Other information

The trustees 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, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

21 of 41

Responsibilities of the trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 19, the trustees 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 they 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 trustees 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 trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the Charity and determined that the most significant which are directly relevant to specific assertions in the financial statements are those related to the reporting frameworks (FRS102, the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Housing SORP 2018 and the Companies Act 2006).

We understood how the Charity is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries of the trustees and management.

We did not identify any matters relating to non-compliance with laws and regulations or relating to fraud.

We assessed the susceptibility of the Charity's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by discussions with the trustees and management to understand areas where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud. We also considered pressures on the trustees and management to meet any external pressures in reporting the financial results of the Charity.

22 of 41

Audit procedures performed by the engagement team on the areas where fraud might occur included:

Assessment of the appropriateness of the collective competence and capabilities of the engagement team included consideration of the engagement team's:

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.uk/auditorsresponsibilities . This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

THE GRANGE CENTRE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

(A company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis for accounting

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Housing SORP 2014, The Charities SORP (FRS102), FRS102 and the Companies Act 2006.

[Full names: Housing SORP 2014 :Statement of Recommended Practice for social housing providers. Charities SORP (FRS102) : 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), FRS102 : the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland]

(b) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and included at cost, including any incidental expenses.

All properties are reviewed for impairment annually, and where there has been a permanent diminution in value, the reduction is recognised.

Depreciation is provided at the following rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life, at the following rates:-

Freehold land 0% Freehold and 999 year leasehold properties 2% per annum on cost Swimming Pool, Greenhouses 3⅓% to 5% per annum on cost Leasehold property (less than 150 year) 2% to 4% per annum on cost Fixtures and equipment, improvements 5% to 10% per annum on cost Computer equipment 25% per annum on cost Vehicles & garden machinery 10% per annum on cost

(c) Grants

Housing Corporation and other capital grants are accounted for under the accrual model required by FRS102. The grant is recognised as restricted income on a systematic basis over the useful economic life of the asset. On the balance sheet the remaining capital grants are recognised as a liability (deferred income).

Revenue Grants are included in the income and expenditure account when receivable and shown separately in the Statement of Financial Activities as income of restricted funds where appropriate.

(d) Stocks

Stocks of sundry stores and raw materials are stated at cost. Stocks of work in hand and made up goods are stated at the lower of cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first in first out basis. Net realisable value represents estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Provision is made for slow moving, obsolete or damaged stock where the net realisable value is less than cost.

(e) Taxation

The Company is a registered charity whose only trading activity is for its primary purpose and as such no income or capital taxes are payable on any part of its activities. Value added tax is incurred on certain categories of expenditure and is not recoverable.

(f) Turnover

Turnover comprises fees and rent, casual lettings, capital and revenue grants receivable and sales of items from our shops and/or produced in the Company's skills departments with input from people we support.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025 (Cont'd)

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued

(g) Investments

Investments are shown in the balance sheet at the mid market value on the balance sheet date. Any realised or unrealised gain or loss is taken to the Statement of Financial Activities and the Income and Expenditure Account. Investment income is accounted for when receivable.

(h) Pension Scheme

The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and a stakeholder pension scheme. The assets of the schemes are held separately from those of the Company in independently administered funds.

(i) Resources Expended

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of resources.

(j) Fundraising and Marketing (costs of generating voluntary income)

Fundraising and marketing costs comprise the salaries and salary overheads and other direct costs attributable to the promotion of fundraising, including events.

(k) Donations and Legacies

Donations and legacies are accounted for when the Company is legally entitled to the income and it can be reasonably quantified. Gift Aid is also included on relevant donations calculated as the amount receivable at the current rate. Donations to the charitable company other than in cash are valued, using reasonable estimates if necessary, and treated as two transactions – a receipt of funds and a purchase using or expenditure from such funds. The other accounting policies (capital expenditure, allocation to restricted/unrestricted funds) are then applied to each of these notional transactions. Any such donations which are significant in value in the context of the accounts are detailed separately in notes to the accounts.

(l) Leasing

The rentals under operating leases are charged as incurred.

(m) Volunteers

The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included.

(n) Fund Accounting

The Company maintains various categories of funds as follows:

Unrestricted Funds:

The unrestricted funds are those funds that are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the Company.

Restricted Funds:

Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific requirements indicated by the donors or which have been raised by the Company for particular purposes.

There are various restricted funds and their purposes are described in the notes to the financial statements.

In the case of restricted funds relating to the acquisition of fixed assets, the assets acquired are held as an asset of the restricted fund, and the relevant depreciation treated as expenditure by that fund, as the trustees consider that it is implicit, in the donation, that the assets acquired should continue to be held and used by the Charity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025 (Cont'd)

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued

(o) Allocation of Support Costs to charitable activities

Where practical, direct costs of carrying on the principal charitable activities, including staff and associated costs, are allocated directly to these cost centres. Other indirect costs are allocated on estimated bases as follows:

Basis of allocation to each activity Staff and associated costs Staff Full Time Equivalent numbers (FTEs ) Utilities and similar costs Areas occupied by each activity General maintenance costs Weighted number of maintenance jobs per activity Insurance Areas occupied by each activity Depreciation Areas occupied by each activity CEO and HR costs Staff Full Time Equivalent numbers (FTEs ) Marketing costs Income of each activity Governance costs Income of each activity General and office costs Income of each activity

Indirect costs

(p) Governance Costs

Governance costs include expenditure attributable directly to the general running of the Company as a charity as distinct from costs of the management functions inherent in generating funds and delivering service within the charitable activities. Apart from an allocation of a small estimated element of senior management remuneration costs, governance costs include directly attributable costs such as external audit fees and, where appropriate, legal fees and similar expenses.

(q) Historical Cost Surpluses and Deficits

Historical cost surpluses and deficits are identical to those shown in the financial statements, with the exception of investments (see note 1(g)).

(r) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

(s) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and bank deposits with a notice period of four months or less.

(t) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.

(u) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

2 PUBLIC BENEFIT

The Charity was established, and continues to operate for public benefit. A detailed description of the Charity's purpose and public benefit is given on pages 13-14 of the Annual Report.

Notes

a) On 20th June 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with Surrey Housing Society for the Disabled (SHSD), under the terms of which SHSD made a grant of £1 million to the Company for the purpose of purchasing properties for rental by people with disabilities and also key workers, including carers. In April 2006, SHSD made a further grant of £600,000, part of which was earmarked to complete the funding of the new wing of the registered care home and the balance was made available for the purposes of the earlier grant. These grants, together with accruing interest, were placed in a separate restricted fund. The funds were spent on accommodation for people we support at Bardolin House and Acorns in Bookham. As both funds are fully spent, they have been transferred to the Restricted building fund.
