CHARITY OF THOMAS GUY

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Principal objectives of the charity

The charity's principal objective is the provision of residential accommodation for persons of good character aged 50 or more subject to certain other conditions.

We review our aims, objectives and activities each year. This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us to ensure that our aim, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes.

Significant activities

The charity provides town centre almshouse accommodation in 33 units.

Public benefit

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The trustees are satisfied that the accommodation provided for residents provide public benefit to the community.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Review of activities and achievements

The occupancy levels were as budgeted for the period with all vacancies arising being filled during the year. For those flats that were vacated during the year minor restoration work has continued to be carried out including the partitioning of bedroom areas and bathroom improvements.

Programmed Work - current year

Maintenance work programmed for 2023 included the following:

A rolling maintenance schedule is in place for the on-going maintenance of the property. General repairs and maintenance costs increased in the year as we work to improve the facilities on site.

At the end of 2011 solar panels were installed ahead of the solar panel feed-in tariff deadline. The savings achieved from the installation of the solar panels has benefited the Charity in the current year by way of reduced energy charges and a rebate of £6,861 (2022: £7,781) from the feed-in tariff.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Summary

Despite a modest increase in residency income expenditure was impacted by increased heating and general costs. Our funds decreased by £11,464 (before net investment gains). Our funds are to be used for planned projects as well as to increase the level of reserves to fund any future major refurbishment of the property.

Gratitude

The trustees would like to thank staff, volunteers and our supporters for their hard work and assistance in the good running of the charity.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves and investment policy

It is the policy of the trustees to maintain free reserves at a level sufficient to cover large costs which may be incurred to maintain the properties, and to cover sufficient and reasonable operating costs to ensure the charity can run efficiently and meet the needs of the beneficiaries. Free reserves are the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets and at 31 December 2023 these amounted to approximately £675,000. These reserves are invested in income shares of the National Association of Almshouses Common Investment Fund and cash investment accounts to give reasonable yield whilst at the same time minimising the level of investment risk.

Financial review

The income and expenditure for the year and transfers to and from the various funds are shown in the attached financial statements.

The net expenditure before transfers for the year of £5,099 (2022: £414 surplus) was in line with our financial forecasts.

The trustees confirm that after making enquiries they have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.

Investment policy and objectives

The charity's funds are invested in a balanced portfolio with the objective of delivering a consistent income level whilst maintaining and optimising capital growth.

FUTURE PLANS

A detailed work programme has been prepared for the forthcoming year to maintain and improve the Almshouses.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

Charity of Thomas Guy was established by a Will dated 4 September 1724 and constitutes an unincorporated charity. It is regulated by a scheme of the Charity Commissioners of the 23 September 1955 and variation of 29 October 1964. The trustees also possess the legacy of Elsie Westwood for the benefit of the residents.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

An ideal trustee profile is identified based on desired attributes and skills to complement the existing board. New trustees are appointed by the board in accordance with the scheme rules and provided with a copy of the governing document, the latest annual report and various Charity Commission literature aimed at trustees.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Organisational structure and decision making

The charity is managed by the board of trustees which, numbering no more than ten at any time, meet monthly.

Before the start of each financial year, the trustees will consider and approve an annual plan and budget for the forthcoming year. The annual plan reviews the charities current aims, objectives and performance. The trustees and the scheme manager discuss the plans throughout the year at the monthly trustee meetings.

Induction and training of trustees

All trustees are encouraged to attend external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. Risks and procedures to manage identified risks are reviewed periodically.

The trustees recognise that no system of internal control can provide absolute assurance or eliminate all risk. The system of internal control is designed to manage risk and to provide reasonable assurance that key business objectives and expected outcomes will be achieved. It also exists to give reasonable assurance about the preparation and reliability of financial and operational information and the safeguarding of the charity's assets and interests.

Approved by order of the board of trustees on 30 October 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

J Benton - Trustee

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHARITY OF THOMAS GUY

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Charity of Thomas Guy

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Charity of Thomas Guy (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2023.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. 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.

CHARITY OF THOMAS GUY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

The Charity of Thomas Guy is an unincorporated charity registered in England and Wales. The charity's address and registered number can be found on page 1 of these financial statements.

2. 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 2019)', 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, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented unless otherwise stated.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. Grants and investment income are included when receivable. Income generated from the permanent endowment investments is unrestricted income and is shown in the general fund.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category.

Charitable activities

Charitable activities expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the performance of its activities and services. It includes costs which are incurred directly by those activities, support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity.

Governance costs

Governance costs comprise those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include accountancy fees and costs associated with the strategic management of the charity.

Tangible fixed assets

A value has never been attributed to the original costs of the Almshouses, Tamworth. Later additions and improvements are shown at cost. None of the charity's functional fixed assets have been re-valued during the year and the charity does not have a policy of revaluation of these assets. In the opinion of the Trustees a provision for depreciation is not considered necessary.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Fund accounting

This differentiates between restricted and unrestricted funds.

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees, for a specific, but not legally binding purpose.

Restricted funds are funds which can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included elsewhere in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Investments

Investments are included at closing mid-market value at the balance sheet date. Any gains or losses arising on revaluations and disposals are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities.
