REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 30 June 2021
The Trustees present their report with the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 30 June 2021.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Properties
The charity is responsible for the administration and management of the land situated in Friern Barnet Lane, London, N20, together with the almshouses thereon which, at 30 June 2021, consisted of:
Old Almshouses 7 apartments New Almshouses 4 one person flats 8 two person flats
The market value of the land and old almshouses, for which no figure appears in the balance sheet, has been estimated by the Trustees at £630,000 at 30 June 1999. Both new and old properties are insured for £2,295,333.
The almshouses are available to persons over the age of 50 who have a long standing connection with the area and a low level of capital.

The Trustees will continue with their policy of repairs and refurbishment of apartments and flats as required and as they become vacant, although the majority have been completed over the last few years. Funds will need to be rebuilt in the years ahead to provide future provisions for the Almshouses.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF LAWRENCE CAMPE'S ALMSHOUSES TRUST
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Lawrence Campe's Almshouses Trust
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Lawrence Campe's Almshouses Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 30 June 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the Year Ended 30 June 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The trustees have considered the potential impact of Covid-19 on the financial statements and in their opinion the going concern basis remains appropriate.
Freehold land and buildings
The properties are held for the provision of social housing and are stated at cost less depreciation in accordance with the guidance given in the Housing SORP 2018: Statement of Recommended Practice for Registered Social Housing Providers.
Old Almshouses
No figure is included in the balance sheet in respect of the old Almshouses and land comprised in the deed of gift dated 17 March 1612. Reference should be made to the comment in the Trustees Report.
New Almshouses
The new Almshouses are shown at cost, less Housing Association Grant and depreciation, as shown in the notes to these financial statements.
Depreciation
Depreciation has been provided on the new Almshouses at a rate which will write off the cost over a period of 60 years.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Housing association grants
Housing Association Grants (HAG) have been made by the Department of the Environment and have been utilised to reduce the amount of the mortgage loan in respect of the approved scheme to the amount which it is estimated can be serviced by the net annual income of the scheme. The amount of HAG has been calculated on the qualifying costs of the scheme in accordance with instructions issued from time to time by the Department of the Environment. Grants have been accounted for using the accruals method as permitted by FRS102 and in accordance with the guidance in the Housing SORP 2018: Statement of Recommended Practice for Registered Social Housing Providers. Grants are recognised over the useful life of the housing property.
