The Trust was founded by a declaration of Trust dated 12 October 1869 and is now governed by a Charity Commission Scheme dated 20 April 2012. 

By virtue of that Scheme James Lloyd Almshouses Trustee Limited was appointed as Corporate Trustee of the Charity on 20 April 2012 in place of the existing trustees and acts as the sole trustee. James Lloyd Almshouses Trustee Limited has a board of  unpaid directors who are nominated to the board based on their relevant expertise. 

The Corporate Trustee's directors meets 4 times a year to discuss, monitor and review activities.

## **Report of the Trustee** 

## **for the Year Ended 31st December 2023** 

Within the Corporate Trustee there are 3 Sub Committees being those for Welfare, Property and Finance.  These Sub Committees meet as and when required to deal with matters arising.  Reports of those Sub Committees are made to the Full Board of Directors of the Corporate Trustee at the next full meeting. 

We comply with the Charity Commission and Almshouse Association recommendations.  Conflicts of interest are recorded at each meeting.  Neither the Trustee nor the Directors of the Trustee Company receive any pay or reimbursement of expenses

## **Risk management** 

The Charity operates a Risk Register, which looks at the risks and threats to which the Charity is exposed.  This is reviewed on an annual basis.  The Corporate Trustee is satisfied that appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud or error. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The prime objective of the trust is to provide sheltered accommodation for elderly women. The trustee aims to 

Promote the wellbeing and independence of the residents. Encourage communal activities. Provide a good quality garden. Provide good quality housing. Manage the resources of the trust effectively and efficiently. 

## **Public benefit** 

The Corporate Trustee has considered the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit, in particular how future developments will contribute to the objectives and aims it has set. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

Two main themes emerged during the year. Firstly, costs incurred through the year due to inflation, but also associated with the second theme, that of items requiring repair or replacement.  This put pressure on the Repairs Budget, and for Major Works. 

All the statutory tests were undertaken, and in addition, three void units were refurbished and re-occupied.  One flat in particular was so damaged that a new kitchen and bathroom was required.  One central heating boiler was replaced, and some unexpected drainage problems rectified.  Increasing standards necessitated new metal fuse boards throughout the site, and some asbestos discovered was made safe or removed.

## **Report of the Trustee** 

## **for the Year Ended 31st December 2023** 

The external dustbin stores were all replaced and 23 flats required the lounge windows to be taken out, the slate surround removed, and the windows refitted. 

One item we had hoped to undertake was the first year of a programme, (initially five units), for replacement kitchens.  Many hours of work resulted in a tender figure above expectations, and therefore we could not proceed. This work will be added to the 2024 programme. 

In anticipation of the forthcoming switch over to a digital telephone line, we needed to upgrade our emergency call system.  It was decided to replace the whole system, bringing it fully up to date, and something that should last for many years. 

In July we conducted a Satisfaction Survey of all residents.  A high response from the 30 residents on site, (one unit empty), resulted in overwhelming satisfaction across all questions asked, endorsing what the organisation aims to achieve.  One important point, and not a specific question, but many residents, in the comments box, praised the efforts of the Scheme Manager. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

During the year under review, the Charity recorded an overall surplus and increase of funds of £24,893, (2022: deficit of £65,047).  Income from providing accommodation for elderly women has increased marginally from the previous year to £193,783, (2022:192,491) whilst expenditure has gone up from £169,688 in 2022 to £227,544 which is mainly due to the significant increase in repairs and maintenance from £57,237 to £109,014 caused by the expenditure on the items referred to under Achievements and Performance. 

The charity achieved a small surplus from charitable activities amounting to £1,386, (2022: surplus £42,957) which was due in part to the increase in investment income which rose to £25,147 form £20,155 in the previous year. There is an unrealised gain on investments of £365, (2022: loss of £108,105), and there was a realised gain on  sales of investments of £23,143 during the year, (2022: no sales of investment).   The Corporate Trustee agreed to transfer £17,000 to the Extraordinary Repair Fund (ERF) (2022: £30,000) plus an additional £27,175,  (2022: £50,000) to the Building Fund. 

The portfolio is managed on a discretionary basis by a specialist team of investment managers with detailed knowledge of Charity law.  The Directors of the Corporate Trustee meet the investment manager on an annual basis to receive their report. 

The Finance sub-committee of the Corporate Trustee  meets twice a year to receive reports from the Property subcommittee on capital expenditure and to produce and monitor the Budget for the Full Board to consider and approve. 

## **2023 Reserves** 

The charity has for the first time for over 10 years faced the pressures of inflation both from a perspective of cost of materials and labour. Consequently, this placed some pressure on both the Repairs Budget and Major Works as mentioned earlier in the report. However, this has not prevented a major part of the planned programme for 2023 being completed. 

The Corporate Trustee is satisfied the original endowment, plus the accumulated capital growth, is sufficient to maintain the buildings in the short to medium term, but longer term, and ultimately when the buildings require demolition and renewal, that the levels of Reserves needs to be kept under review.

## **Report of the Trustee** 

## **for the Year Ended 31st December 2023** 

The Corporate Trustee has given this matter careful consideration in 2022 and in June 2022 agreed to transfer £25,000 to a newly established Building Fund with a further £25,000 transferred in November 2022. Subject to annual reviews each year a further sum of £25,000 plus inflation is to be transferred to the Building Fund each year (2023: £27,175). These monies have been transferred to the investment managers for long term investment. In addition to this the Corporate Trustee designated an annual transfer to the Extraordinary Repair Fund (2023: £17,000, 2022: £30,000) for expected future major repairs. 

The Charity has current accounts with both Lloyds and Santander banks which total in excess of £160,000. The Corporate Trustee agreed it was necessary to reduce the amount held in the bank current accounts. Rather than attempt to open deposit accounts with unconnected banks the Corporate Trustee agreed to transfer monies to the investment managers for long term investments which took place after the end of the financial year . 

## **Investments** 

Over the 12 months ended 31st December 2023, the overall value of the portfolio in total return terms recorded a gain of 6.7% compared to gain in the benchmark index [ARC Charity Steady Growth] of 7.5%. The portfolio has still outperformed ARC over 5 years, but 1 and 3 years are both behind. 

Income generation was supported by the new cash added throughout the year, and ultimately 20% more income was generated in 2023 than in 2022, with a yield that is 10% higher at 3.3%. Investment income in 2023 totalled £25,147 compared with £20,155 in 2022. 

The investment strategy currently in place has remained unchanged during the period under review which is to achieve a balance between income and long term capital growth. A statement of investment policy has prepared and been approved by the investment managers last year. 

The biggest performance driver for most of 2023 was inflation and interest rate expectations. As these rose in the first half of the year, bonds, property, and infrastructure investments suffered but a surprise quarter four inflation had fallen dramatically in the UK and also abroad, so interest expectations were forecasting a fall in rates. This led to a strong rally in these assets. 

It has however, been overseas markets that have achieved the best performance in 2023 led by the United States and Europe. Conversely, the biggest area of weakness globally towards the end of the year was China. 

Global markets have so far in 2024 remained positive in the expectation that global interest rates will start to fall by June. The investment managers report highlights the risks associated with artificial intelligence shares, geopolitical factors and the prospects of a General Election in the UK and a US Presidential election this Autumn. This all adds up to a level of uncertainty which makes forecasting future trends in markets very difficult to predict. 

The Charity's investment managers are Evelyn Partners from their offices in Birmingham. The portfolio is managed on a discretionary basis and the Finance committee meet twice a year to review strategy and performance. The Main Board invite the investment managers to present their annual report in March. 

The Chairman of the Finance committee maintains regular contact with the investment managers for periodic updates particularly during volatile market conditions and then reports back to the Finance committee. 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

The Charity's stated Reserves Policy is that the Charity holds at least six months' expenditure in reserve, either in cash, or short-term deposits.  No alteration to this policy is proposed . As at 31 December 2023, the Charity held in excess of the funds required to cover six months of expenditure. All Reserves above this level are invested for the long term benefit of the Charity.

## **Report of the Trustee** 

**for the Year Ended 31st December 2023** 

## **FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS** 

During 2024, the Corporate Trustee plans to reconsider the replacement kitchen programme, plus provide additional insulation in the walls and roof spaces, this arising from the Carbon Reduction Plan produced in response to a survey undertaken in 2023.  There is one quite substantial flat roof, which we anticipate can be renewed as a pitch roof, together with additional insulation.  This came from both the Carbon Reduction Plan and the Condition Survey of 2022.  All statutory and best practice tests and surveys are programmed for action on schedule during the year.

**Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustee of The James Lloyd Almshouses Trust** 

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31st December 2023 set out in the following pages. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustee and examiner** 

The charity's trustee is responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustee considers that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. 

It is my responsibility to: 

examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act 

to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of the independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as the directors of the corporate  trustee concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below. 

## **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 reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect: 

(1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 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.
