## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022**
## **Objectives of the Charity**
The William Henry and Ethel Harlock's Old Leake Almshouse Charity is constituted by a Deed dated 10 January 1958 and is a registered charity (no 213771). The charity was formed to provide either generally or individually, housing and support to almspeople who live in the parish of Old Leake in the Borough of Boston. Six almshouse bungalows are provided for housing.
Activities during the year have been to continue to collect sufficient funds through maintenance contributions to run and maintain the properties and to continue to invest the capital to provide for running costs and administration from the interest earned.
Small gifts are given to the almspeople at Christmas.
## **Financial position and reserves**
During the year the charity expended £4,310 (2021 - £4,144) on its aims.
Incoming resources totalled £28,282 (2021 - £27,780). The surplus in cash reserves was £20,614 (2021 – £20,638).
At the year end cash reserves at bank and on deposit totalled £29,940 (2021 - £19,496). Also NAACIF accumulation shares valued at £217,444 (2021 - £195,956) were held as provision for any extraordinary repairs and refurbishment. The charity also holds further investments totalling £167,957 (2021 - £151,886) as general reserves. These reserves are considered sufficient to provide for the needs of the charity over the foreseeable future, i.e. three years.
## **Trustees**
The trustees for the year were:
Mr A Howsam Mr J A Allen Mrs J Hampstead Mr J Gresham Councillor D Norton Mrs J Limb
The Charity is administered by the trustees and their clerk. There are two representative trustees. One to be selected from St Mary’s Church Old Leake and one to be selected from the Parish Council of Old Leake and shall serve for four years; there are three co-opted trustees appointed for a term of five years by the existing trustees at a formal meeting.
All decisions are made by majority vote at Trustees' Meetings though, in the interests of the Charity, unanimity is sought.
New trustees are briefed by the clerk on the functions of the charity but no specific training is imparted, as ordinary judgement is pre-requisite.
## **Future plans**
The trustees plan to continue their activities in the manner heretofore conducted. In particular to maintain to a high standard the properties, which are occupied by beneficiaries of the charity.

## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES CONT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022**
## **Statement of trustees responsibilities**
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and its financial activities for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operational existence.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. 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.
## **Independent Examiner**
The Trustees intend to ask the existing examiner to undertake the independent examination of the Charity in the following year.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE WILLIAM HENRY AND ETHEL HARLOCK’S OLD LEAKE ALMSHOUSE CHARITY**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
## **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 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the 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 which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or
- the accounts do not accord with such records
- the accounts did 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.
