The Charity's investment in the National Association of Almhouses Common Investment Fund
increased by £85,670. 2020 had seen a decrease 01 £77.293 due to a slump in stock market
prices after the initial Covid-19 impact, so much of this year's gain is a reversal of that negative
reaction. During the year further shares were purchased to the value of £5,000 (2020 - £5,000)
and Ihe fund received dividends of £16,576 (2020 - £17,291) which were reinvested. Valuation at
the year end exceeds accumulated cost by £122.533 (2020 £36,863)-
The house at 49 Partridge Road, St Albans. formerly the warden's house, continued to be let
commercially under an assured shorthold tenancy. The net income from this letting contributed to
the surplus an amount of £6,394 (2020- £12,414). The investment property has been valued by
Leaders, Estate Agents, for the purpose ol inclusion in these accounts and subject to the tenancy,
is valued at £475,000.
The transfer to the Extraordinary Repair Reserve was £5,000 (2020 - £5,000). which is in excess
of Ihe £900 minimum required by the Charity Commission.

(g) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe
that no material uncertainties exist, except as disclosed below. The Trustees have considered the
level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditufe for the twelve months from
authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is suflicient with
the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
In the early part of 2020. a coronavirus pandemic emerged which caused economic uncertainty
and the United Kingdom government to implement significant restrictions on social and business
activities. The Trustees have considered the potential impact of this on the financial position of
the charity and have concluded that the charity is unlikely to be significantly be affected by this,
given the level of reserves. in the period of twelve months from the date of authorising these
aecounts.
