BVT also runs a small number of commercial prernises outside our
communities to provide a profit which we reinvest in our neighbourhoods. We
manage around 3,000 acres of agricultural land that was gifted to Bwf and
that we use in line with the charitable aims of the original donation. We invest
in, and work with, our communities to provide services and facilities which
assist people to thrive. BVT also provides management and maintenance
services to a few registered providers and other organisations.
Boumville Almshouse Trust {BAT) - A linked charity, 8AT is a charitable

Design Charter
there has been a great deal of activity to develop policy
principals for a new Deslgn Charter. This has led to a recognition that one
Charter to cover our diverse neighbourhoods would not be effective. This

Committee which will begin work in 2023. (21
Environmental Sustainability Strategy
much of the baseline research and
analysis is now complete, with a detailed analysis of our housing slock, energy
perfonnance ratings, nature and biodiversity in place. We are now analysing
our carbon footprint through the SHIFT environmental model and plan to
complete the strategy in sumtner 2023. (2&31
Estates and Stewardship Service

stakeholders has allowed us to gain a much deeper understanding of what is
needed in future. (4)

To achieve our aim of building strong and inclusive communities, we will.,
1. Support and champion opportunities for people to be involved in leading
things that are important in their local community and deliver them.

services and projects.
3. Develop our role as a community anchor to facilitate partnerships that see
people and agencies work together on issues that matter to the community.

activities that are important to the community. especially those that promote
cohesion, community spirit and wellbeing.
5, Make sure there is a strong voluntary and community sector.

research and consultation a Community Strategy was completed, with the
March 2023 Board approving the strategy and its implementation. (1-7)
Resident Involvement Strategy - responding to the white paper proposals we
have developed a new strategy to set out BVT'S approach to listening to the
customer voice, ensuring residents have access to redress and shape how
community members can shape services and where we can devolve decision

in Autumn 2023. (1&21

In 2022 we have developed and agreed a new strategy, which is now being
implemented a5 part of the 2023 annual plan. (1-71
Maintenance Servlces
to take the growih of our in-house maintenance
services to the next phase by developing and implementing a programme to
deliver planned maintenance, such as fitting new boilers, kitchens and
bathrooms, using our own staff. This project was completed and delivery
commenced in 2022. (3)

How did we do in 20227
Governance Review - to ensure we have the most effective Govemance in
place we commenced phase 2 of our agreed governance review. Supported by
an extemal facilitator, this focused on our committee structure and operating
arrangements. A new structure was agreed by the Board in December 2022
and we believe this will build on the excellent Governance in place that saw
BVT awarded the highest rating for Governance (G11 by the Regulator for
Social Housing in March 2022. {5)
Market Rented Portfolio - to improve our financial resilience and to ensure we
have a range of housing options in our communities we embarked on a pilot
market rented project in 2021. In 2022 we successfully developed all the
necessary operating procedures and scaled up this portfolio. (6)
6 Sharing our experlence
To achieve our aim of leaming, sharing and influencing others, we will:
1. Recognise our strong heritage and solid socially guided foundations that
have led to our success.

Board to set the correct level of investment that they wish to make into Heritage
Services going fo￿rfard and also helped us deliver more whilst attracting new
grants and increasing school visits. (6)

Financial Review
The Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year ended 31st December 2022,
shows a group surplus of £23.3m compared to a group surplus of £10.5m for 2021.
The main changes to note are: .
In line with the requirements of the Housing SORP and in recognition that BVT
has, through its subsidiary BVE, commenced letting some properties on a
Market Rented Basis, we have reviewed all of our properties to confinm that the
category they sit under in our accounts is a fair representation of their purpose.
Through this exercise we have established the need to move the homes we are
letting on a market rented basis to the category of Investment Properties.
Alongside this, in reviewing our commercial and agricultural assets, we have
identified 4 shops which we are holding for profit generation purposes. rather
than to ensure our communities have access to important amenities in their
neighbourhood. Thls means we have recat8gorised these 4 shops as
Investment Properties too. All ourother shops, offices and agricultural holdings
remain in line with their original social purpose, but this review will be
undertaken each year to ensure that remains the case. This review means that
following an external revaluation exercise, we are now recognising £4.2m of
assets as Investment Properties.
Under accounting requirements, the Group has to account for the fair value of
its portfolio of interest rate hedging instruments. Details of these hedging
instruments are set out in note 17, The movemenl in the fair value of these
hedging instruments over the course of the year is reflected in the Statement of
Comprehensive Income. The movement for 2022 was a positive value of
£17.69m compared to a positive movement of £7.67m for 2021. Such
movements reflect the changing market expectations regarding future interest
rates. This swing in the valuation of our hedging instruments causes a
significant increase in our surplus for 2022.
In 2022 we saw our profit share arrangement with the Extra Care Charitable
Trust for operations at Bournvllle Gardens rise considerably to £461k, up from
£219k in 2021. (see Note 1).
In 2022 BVT sold fewer assets (housing properties, land and other assets),
£754k compared to 2021 £2.083k. This was mainly due to the sale of Selly
Wood House Nursing Home in 2021. BVT does not in the standard course of
business sell assets, but we do undertake strategic disposals where assets no
longer deliver against our strategic aims. {see Note 5a)
Whilst the above accounting action positively impacted our surplus position for 2022,
we are happy that our operational perfomiance was strong and in line with
expectations and not significantly altered from previous years. In 2022 (£27,367) our
Page | 13

tumover was down on 2021 (£27,619), mainly due to the sale of Selly Wood House
Nursing Horne in November 2021, and our Group Operating surplus was up from
£4.717m in 2021 to £4.962m in 2022 (see Note 11.
Treasury Management
Trustees have approved a Treasury Policy which sets out the key treasury
management policies and practices for the Group. This policy was renewed in 2022.
It sets out clear guidelines for Bvf on all treasury matters.
The Group had total housing loans of £82.9 million at the end of 2022, compared to
£85.5m at the end of 2021 (see Note 18>. Bwf also has further undrawn available
facilities in place of £17m.
The BVT Group held a cash balance of £3.32m at the end of 2022, compared to
£5.58m at the end of 2021. The Board were happy to reduce the cash holdings as
the risks of sudden shocks associated with the pandemic reduced (see Note 18).
BVT uses stand-alone interest rate derivatives to manage the interest risk on the
loan portfolio, having secured the required wider-range powers from our Regulator.
All interest rate derivatives are authorised by the Finance Committee, in line with the
overall strategy which is to hedge at least 112 of the portfolio, with the overall level of
hedging to be at a level that best supports the delivery of the BVT business plan.
As at 31 December 2022 the balance of the loan portfolio was 870/0 hedgedifixed and
13¥0 variable.
Our Treasury Policy requires that adequate funds are available at all times to enable
BVT to meet its business and service objectives for at least the following 24 months.
Bwf utili5e external treasury management support and advice to ensure we offer the
best value for money possible in our Treasury Management. Having secured a new
Rolling Credit Facility from Danske Bank in 2021, BVT has sufficient loan facilities in
place to cover our business plan requirements until 2027, with a £5m contingency to
cover unexpected events or unforeseen opportunities.
Cash Flow Management
Cash flows for the period are set out in the Statement of Cash Flows in the financial
statements. The Group has a strong cash inflow from operating activities. This is
used to service the interest payments on the loans that have been taken out and
also to partly fund the capital improvement prograrnme. The balance of the capital
improvement programme as well as the development programme are funded from
capital receipts and loans.
Page | 14

Covenants
All loan covenants were met and our 30 year financial forecast demonstrates that
81Th can meet all future covenant requirements.
O Interest Cover on our tightest measure was 139 % which exceeds the 11 or/i.
requirement.
4 Gearing was 53.16 /0 against a maximum level of 660/0 (please note this
calculation is different to the Gearing calculation required by the sector score
card shown later in these accounts).
O Debt per unlt was £24,408 per unit against a maximum of £35,426.
Prfnci
al Rlsks and Uncertalntles
Bvf has a mature risk management framework in action with the 8oard constantly
horizon scannlng and managing risk through a risk register. Risks are identified,
quantified and managed through 1&1 line management acts'ons, 2nd line intemal
oversight and Jtd line external assurance. Thls Includes an extenslve and robust
internal audit programme delivered by Mazars.
All decisions made by Bltr are in line with the Board's staled risk appetite.,
Risk Appetlte Statement- 'At B VT, our customers, staff and assets are of vital
importance to the success of our organisation. We operate within 8 cautious
risk range, which we consider to b8 appropriate for a charitable organisation.
We have no appetite for landlord compliance risks or health and safety risks,
nor breaches in regulation, which must be tightly controllgd. We also h8ve low
risk 8ppetite for financial Ioss and no appetite for covenant non-compliance.
However, we wish to grow our business for the benefit of the vulnerable in our
society, both now and in the future and are willing to accept some risk within
this area, within acceptable financial param8ters and strong internal controls,.
The Board of BVT consider the following to be significant risks faced by the
Organisation, with significant control and mits'gation actions having been brought to
bear in Ihese areas.
Economic uncertainty and instability- the Board have plans and mitigation
actions to help alleviate the impact of increased and long-term inflation,
increasing interest rates, reduced access to and increased cost of funding and
rent freezes or cuts implemented by Govemmental policy. Mitigation includes
hedging of loans, professional procurement, detailed 30-year financial plans,
trigger points for mitigation actions and detailed mitigation plans that can
strengthen financial resilience by altering corporate plans.
Pressure on the financial resilience of customers - we recognise that fuel
costs, food costs, low wage increas8s, and welfare benefit levels all impact on
Page115

our customers. BVT assist by identifying early those in financial distress,
offering financial inclusion support to help maximise income, delivering energy
use reduction assistance programmes. as well as working with partners, such
as food banks.
Failure in Landlord Health & Safety- Whilst BW has a strong record in
landlord health and safety delivery. we know that we can never rest on our
laurels and that any failure is unacceptable. Please see the following section
for further detail. Condensation, Damp and Mould are rightly high in the
priority list of all Social Landlords, following recent tragic events and the
highlighting of unac￿ptabIY poor practice in the sector. BVT takes the issue
very seriously. We have reached out to our customers through our website
and all social media channels to ask them to talk to us and report any issues
with damp and mould in their homes. We have also instructed all of our in-
house repair operatives to look for any indications of damp issues during their
visits. When we gathered information to report to the Regulator for Social
Housing in December 2022, we had identified a small number of homes
where there was some issue with condensation, damp and mould. Where this
is the case we trfangulate against potential causation indicators, EPC rating,
property build date, property IoGgtion, property type and further categorise the
severity of the issue. We then instigate action to identify the cause of the
issue, develop and implement remedi81 action, monitor the situation and
review if further action is needed. We are committed to ensuring we
communicate effectively with any tenant who has concerns around damp and
mould and in 2023 we have added additional resources to specifically
manage this communication need.
Failure to recruit and retain capable staff - employing and retaining skilled
Staff, especially in technical roles, is challenging in the current climate. Bwr
seeks to ensure we offer competitive pay and benefits, flexible recruitment,
flexible working options and a culture that encourages staff engagement with
our mission and apprentlceship schemes that train the next generation.
Health and Safet Com
Ilance
8VT has no appetite to take any level of risk with health and safety compliance.
We require and monitor to ensure that (where applicable).,
100 % of properties have a valid electrical certificate completed with the last 5
years.
1 OOOA of fire risk assessment actions are carried out within the agreed
timescale.
100°h of properties have a valid Landlord Gas certificate in place.
100 % of passenger lifts have a valid service certificate in place.
1 OOO/y of properties have a legionella risk assessment in place and all
legionella related actions are undertaken within the agreed timescale.
Paee | 16

Environment Statement
BVT are committed to doing all possible to ensure our hornes reach a minimum EPC
rating of C by 2028 and we have financial plans in place to athieve this.
The Board see this as a minimum standard and we are working to fully detail our
lourney towards carbon neutrality, with estimated costs already included in our 30
year financial plan. Clearfy the historic nature of large elements of BVTS housing
stock and the strict conservation area rules we must adhere to add a level of
complexity to this journey, but the Board of BW are committed to making this
reality.
Value for Mone
Statement
roach to Vfm
As a charitable trust with competing demands on our finite resources, we recognise
the importance of achieving Value for Mon8y (Vfm). Our Vfm strategy sets out our
definition:
'To B VT, Value for Money means achieving our co￿Orate Plan. by using
our resources in Ihe most effective, efficient, and economic way, whilst
ensuring we live our values in all that we deliver.
In 2022, we carried out a strategic review to update our existing 10-year Corporate
Plan (2020 - 29). This was a vital component of our value for money approach as it
enabled the Trustee Board to debate and reach agreement on the difficult trade-offs
that need to be made between: business hcalth, asset investment, future growth &
development and the delivery of operational services.
Vfm is also embedded into our operational services as part of our approach to
continuous improvement. Over the past three years we have developed a suite of
performance rneasures for each serrfice area that enables us to measure the
effectiveness and efficiency of their operation. We are continuing to develop and
enhance our economy measures at a service level. All KPIS and economy measures
are captured in our planning and performance framework with front line staff actively
involved in setting targets for their service area.
Vfm Metrics
To help drive Vfm in BVT we use the nine metrics set by the Regulator for Social
Housing together with additional metrics. These complernent a range of performan
measurement tools in operation across .
The tsble on the following 2 pages sets out our trends on past perfomiance, our
perfonnance against targets in 2022 and our targets for 2023. We usually set targets
over a three-year period but due to the challenges offered by the UK and global
economic position we found ourselves experiencing in late Autumn 2022, when targets
Page | 17

and budgets are set, along with the below inflation rent settlement, we had to
completely recast the 2023 budget to reach an acceptable position, which prevented
us from setting three-year budgets and targets. We will retum to this detailed three-
year planning in 2023.
Following a review of the appropriate Peer Group for B￿ to Benchmark 8gainst, we
have adopted a new Peer Group for 2023. We have opted to choose associations
based on the following characteristics.
At least 50 % of their homes are in the West Midlands.

Review of Performance in 2022 and
riorities for 2023
Overvlew of 2022
2022 was a challenging year for most organisations and BVT was no
exception. We had hoped for a more settled period following the
pandemic, which would have been more conducive with our aim of
settling into delivering the priorities in the Corporate Plan.
However, we quickly came to understsnd that the tight labour market,
challenging supply chains, significant rises in inflation, spiralling energy
costs and interest rate hikes would make this a difficult year.
We saw higher levels of staff tumover than we have ever experienced
and difficulty in recruiting staff, particularly in technical roles and skilled
maintenance roles. We therefore had to enhance salaries, improve the
flexibility of our employment offer, seek new and innovative ways of
recruiting, and ensure that BVT remained an employer of choice to
compete in a difficult market. All these changes and activities meant
that, apart from some specialist technical posts in Asset Management,
we have been able to retain and recruit the skilled and committed
workforce we need,
Demand for services from customers continued to increase, with the
cost-of-living crisis and post pandemic catch up, driving higher levels
of responsive repairs, increased voids, and general increased demand
levels on our customer seNices.
Our customers were severely impacted by the cost-of-living crisis and
sought increasing levels of support from BVT, especially for the
services we provide around financial advice, energy efficiency advice
and emergency financial crisis funds.
We look decisive action to ensure we could continue to deliver the
services our customers needed and meet this increased demand, but
this had an impact on our expenditure. We had targeted our overall
social housing cost of per unit to be £3,808 in 2022 but ended the year
with an actual of £4,527. Whilst there was a very careful approach to
cost management, we did not believe that meeting our target by making
service level culs to off-set spiralling inflation and interest costs would
have been value for money for our customers and instead decided thal
we must rneet the increased demand we faced. Moreover, we
recognised that making cuts in areas such as repairs and
improvements to our homes was not in line with our customers, voice
and would in the long-term bring dissatisfaction to them and increased
costs to us.
Plans for 2023
BVT usually sets budgets for a 3-year period as thls helps us identify
the right value for money targets and ensures we are making sure all
we spend is furthering our Corporate Plan. However, the economic
crisis we faced in late 2022 when the 2023 budgets were being set,
with rapidly rising interest rates, spiralling inflation, supply chain
Page | 21

pressures, recruitment challenges and a need to set rent increases well
below inflation meant we had to take immediate and significant action
to ensure our 2023 budget was within our financial capacity. This
action was needed to ensure that we could deliver both our vital
services and meet our obligations to our Funders, as well as being
certain we did not expose ourtenants, homes to risk. Thi5 action meant
we could not plan for 3 years in the usual way and that with many cost
reduction measures introduced in a short space of time we would need
to see how effectively we could operate, prior to setting further value
for money targets.
To reach a secure and acceptable 2023 budget we renegotiated some
loan covenants and started the process of arranging additional loan
facilities. This has allowed us to ensure we have the Money and
apaclty to invest in our existing homes.
We also had to cut expenditure in areas such as community
development and restructure our housing teams to ensure we could
still deliver this vital work, but at a lower cost.
Across BVT we looked for savings. cutting posts where services could
be delivered differently and saving on any activities that did not deliver
the maximum return in terms of tenant satisfaction or social value.
Clearly making such changes was only possible as we spent tlme
refreshing our Corpordte Plan and making the difficult trade off
decisions between our competing priorities.
This review of the Corporate Plan was supported by the outcome of
several important service reviews in areas outside of our housing
delivery., estate services on the Boumville Estates, Heritage Services
and Community Development. These reviews allowed our Board the
level of understanding and information that is necessary to make such
challenging decisions.
Overall, the Board decided that we must maintain our ambitious
investrnent programme in our existing homes, make more money
available for reactive repairs and customer services, as this was the
clear message we re￿iVed from listening to our tenants voice. To do
this we had to make cuts in other areas and maintain our corporate
overhead at a very low level. The Board also had to decide to look to
dispose of some poorly performing assets, convert a small number of
vacant properties to market rent, drive for increased returns from our
commercial assets and maintain new development spending at a lower
level.

Business Health
Performance in 2022
Our operating margin for social housing improved in 2022, with it
being close to our target and better than our Peers and the Sector
weighted averages. The overall operating margin for all activities was
below our Peers and the sector, but as BVT is a Charitable Trust and
operates several loss-making activities such as the management of
our historic estates, this is to be expected.
Our EBITDA MRI Interest cover was slightly above our Peers, but a
little below the sector median. The change in this measure from
previous years was planned and expected as we invested more in our
homes, with higher interest rates being the main reason we fell short
of our target.
This all indicates that BVT is in a positive business health position,
despite the challenging year that 2022 tumed oul to be.
Prlorltiès for 2023
In setting our 2023 budg8t th8 Board of BVT accepted that our costs
for repairs, investment in our homes and customer seDiices would all
rise, as we are detemiined to deliverwhat our customers want despite
rising costs. This means we expect a slight reduction in our business
health measures, but lo stay well within parameters that are
acceptable to our Board. As we have an extensive programme of
investing in our homes for 2023 and beyond, we expect to see a
significant reduction in Interest Cover (EBITDA MRI), but have
ensured this is well within our Bank Covenants and Golden Rules.
Develo
ment Ca
aclt & Su
Perfomiance In 2022
Our new development is centred on the completion of our Lightmoor
urban village. In 2022 nine homes were completed, of which three
were transferred to BW for sociallaffordable rent.
Prloritles for 2023
We expect to see 137 completions in Lightmoor in 2023, of whlch 39
will be for social rent.
Effective Asset Mana
Perfonnance in 2022
ement
BVT again demonstrated a solid retum on capital employed and
maintained a very high occupancy level. In 2022 we did have more
tenant tumover than is usual for BVT as we saw a catch up of moves
following the pandemic, which meant we had higher numbers of voids
to deal with. However, despite supply chain and staffing challenges
Page | 23

we still maintsined very high occupancy levels.
The ratio of
responsive repairs to planned maintenance changed. as expected, as
we saw our investment in our existing homes increase as planned.
Due to inflation. we did, however, see responsive repairs cost far
more than planned.
Prlorltles for 2023
In 2023 we will be driving hard to keep the number of days properties
are empty at or below our target of 32 days. Whilst this has limited
financial impact on 8VT due to our low social rents, it has a huge
impact on families in housing need who want to move into new hornes
as soon as possible. We will also ramp up our planned maintenance
spend again in 2023, in line with our 30-year plan and in response to
our tenants, voice.
Outcomes dellvered
Performance In 2022
We were pleased that in 2022. despite significant supply chain
challenges, we delivered on our reinvestment programme, ensuring
we delivered promised improvements to our tenants, homes.
Coming out of the pandemic we find our overall satisfaction rating at
800A. This remains lower than our standing when we went into the
pandemic, and we will be pushing hard to listen to our tenants and
ensure this improves.
We regularly survey our tenants and one question we ask, is 'how
satisfied were you with your most recent repairf. The answer to this
question leaves us short of our target, with us falling short on getting
repairs done right first time certainly contributing to this. Whilst we
had a backlog of repairs coming out of the pandemic and faced sorne
staffing issues in 2022. we will not accept lower than target
performance and will be working to reach our targets in 2023.
Prlorltles for 2023
We will be looking to invest rnore than ever in improving our existing
homes and we will overcome the challenges we have with recruiting
and retaining specialist asset management staff to ensure this is
achieved.
We will focus on getting more repairs completed first time and will
learn from our tenants to ensure we achieve a higher satisfaction
rating with each repair undertaken.

Efficiencles
Perforniance in 2022
Our headline social housing cost per unit rose in 2022 and we we
some way (£719 per property) above our target. However, we
believed we must deliver the seniices our tenants required despite
spiralling inflation causing rapidly rising costs. We ended 2022 with
a cost £350 per property above our Peers and £377 above the sector
median, but w8 do believe all similar organisation5 will see rising
prices push up their cost per unit, so a like-for-like measure at 2022
year-end is likely to show we are closer to the sector average that we
appear to be from these figures.
Our service charge costs are lower than average, but here we
recognise that we are not charging for some services we deliver and
that there are some service level improvements our tenants may find
beneficial if we were to charge for and deliverthem, such as additional
communal cleaning and gardening.
Our maintenance cost per unit is high against our peers and the sector
and whilst we accepted this in 2022 as we sought to catch up with a
pandemic backlog and 8nsur8 improving satisfaction levels, it is an
area we continue to work on through training, performance monitoring
and recruitment and retention of high quality staff.
Prloritles for 2023
We will allow our headline social housing cost per unit and
managernent cost per unit to rise as we seek to offer the enhanced
service levels our cornmunities need during this economic crisis.
We will seek to implement Service charges for new tenants where we
have identified that services and satisfaction could be improved by
moving nearer to the sector average for service charge costs.
Our management cost perunit was slightly above our Peers but below
the sector median. We expect to see Ihis rise only slightly in line with
general cost increases in 2023.
As we delivered more planned maintenance in 2022, we saw some
costs shifting from revenue to capital, this trend will continue in 2023
so whilst we will invest more in our homes we will see our
maintenance cost per unit, as calculated under this rneasure, reduce
slightly.
In 2023 we have investment in our existing homes as a major priority
so we will see our major repairs cost per unit rise from £1,163 in 2022
to £1,853 in 2023.
With cost pressures on BVT at very high levels and to ensure we have
sufficient funds to deliver our priorities we will again keep our
overheads as a percentage of tumover very low. Our Target for 2023
is well below both our Peers and the sector medians.
Whilst financial pressure on our tenants is extremely high we still
expect to maintain rent collection levels in 2023 and to keep void loss
low.

Constitution and Governance
BVT is govemed by tts Deed of Foundatlon which was amended in June 2021 to
enable aC￿SS to a wider pool of potential trustee candidates by reducing the number
of family trustees from 9 to 6, ￿MovIng the nominated positions from The University
of Birmingham, The Society of Friends and Birmingham City Council and creating
positions for up to 6 independent trustees (2 co-opted) to help to increase the
diverslty of BVT'S trustees and to bring in the skills required by the board.
The board meets at least 4 times each year and is supported by a range of
committees with delegatlons clearly set out in a suite of Temis of Reference
approved by the board. There are a number of govemance policies and documents
in place to support effective govemance across the group.
BVT adopted the National Housing Federation Code of Govemance 2020 in March
2021 and completed an annual self-assessment of compllance with the new Code in
early 2022. There is one key area of non-compliance with the Code relating to the
terms of office of family trustees. The Deed of Foundation does not apply set terms
of office for family trustees but the 6-year rule is applied to independent trustees in
compliance with the Code of Governance. Family trustees are subject to annual re-
appointment after serving 9 years on the board which takes into consideration
individual trustee'5 performance and the skills requirements of the board and
committees.

Govemance and Financial Viability Standard on an annual basis and certifies that it
is compliant with this standard.
Employee Involvement
To provide for consultation between management and employees on matters of
concern to ernployees. a Joint Consultative Committee {JCCI, comprising staff
members and managers, including the Chief Executive, meets around 3 times per
year. In 2022 the JCC discussed areas such as employee wellbeing, hybrid working,
cost of living crisis, personal and professional development and health and safety.
Public Benefit
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contalned in the
Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims
and objectives of BVT and in planning future activities. The Trustees have concluded
that the BVT'S aims and objectives contribute benefits in many ways. including the
following:
provision of rented housing accommodation to those in housing need
provision of community facilities and Services
provision of advi￿ and support to residents.

We continue to carry out process mapping to identify where efficiency and
effectiveness could be increased. This was particularly applied to aspects of BVT'S
payroll, complaints, HR system and financial inclusion activikn'es during 2022.
Data Breaches
BVT'S Data Protection Officer manage5 and records all data breaches, both
intemal and external, that occur. On average, since we began recording, we have
617 data breaches each year. The process for reporting data breaches is set out
in the Data Breach Notification Proccdurc.
Of the 32 data breaches reported since 2018. 59 % (19) relate to email usage with
the use of Autofill specifically causing 28°/0 (91 of those breaches. Most of these
breaches were disclosure of information to the wrong recipient and all were
considered easily preventable.
We are seeing a slight increase in cyber-attackslspam; 5 in total, 2 of those in the
past 18 months. We have now achieved Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation and
online training has been delivered to all staff to increase awareness of the issues
that spam ernalls can cause.
We are continually leaming from data breaches. There is no blame associated
with breaches and we actively encourage staff to report all instances they are
Involved in.
All staff continue to receive Data Protectlon and IT Security training which has
given thern a good understanding of our Dats Protection policies and processes
and also their responsibilities when managing personal data, as well as useful
infomiation on IT Security.
This training is valid for two years. New staff will undergo the training during their
induction.

Reporting
The annual business planning and budgeting process for 2022 was based on
achieving the strategic objectives in the Corporate Plan and managing the key
risks that might impact on achieving this.
There was regular reporting of both risk and perfomiance across BVT throughout
the year. Slandardised report templates are in pla￿ to ensure that infomiation is
presented clearly and consistently across key issues.
Page | 29

A robust, business-led approach to a quarterty performance reporting cycle and
reporting from a suite of KPI measures is firmly eslablished and includes a
specific suite of KPIS for landlord health and safety compliance.
In 2022 BVT again enhanced financial planning. with a complete rebuild of the
30-year financial plan. This included new assumptions to better reflect the likely
long-term impact of the pandemic, economic crisis and war in Europe. The
complete automation of BVT'S financial covenants allowed the 30-year plan to be
used by Trustees at their Strategy Days to review a range of financial outcomes,
drawn from different delivery option5. This comparison tool helped the Board
choose between competing options for Bw's finite financial reSoUr￿s, thereby
assisting them in setting the business plan for BVT'S medium term future.
The adVan￿d stress testing we have been running for some years was updated,
in line with our annual cycle. The detailed stress testing run has enabled
Trustees to understand Bwf's financial position clearly and also understand the
impact of various financial scenarios on its financial viability and has resulted in
very clear indicators for ensuring..
a. there is access to sufficient liquidity at all times.
b. financial forecasts are based on appropriate and reasonable assumptions.
c. effective systems are in place to monitor and accurately report on the
delivery of our plans.
d. the financial and other implications of risks to the delivery of plans are
considered.
e. we monitor, report on and comply with our funders, covenants.
Strateglc Risk & Assurance RogSster
A Strategic Risk & Assurance Register is compiled and updated by the Executive
Team to help to facilitate the identification, assessment and ongoing monitoring of
risks significant to the organisation, also considering the need for further
mitigation.
The Register has been presented each quarter in 2022 to the Audit & Risk
Committee and to TNst8es.
Operational Risk & Assurance Regist8r8
Operational Risk & Assurance Registers are in place and are updated quartedy
by the ￿levant director to help to facilitate the identification, assessment and
ongoing monitoring of risks significant to the seNice, also considering the need for
further mitigation. The registers are reviewed by the relevant committees in
accordance with our Risk & Assurance Strategy.

Audlt & Rlsk Committee
The Audit & Risk Committee alerts Trustees to any emerging issues or concems
it has. In addition, the committee oversees internal audit, extemal audit and
management responses as required in its review of internal controls. The
committee is therefore well-placed to provide advice and assurance to Trustees
on the effectiveness of the intemal control system. including the organisation's
system for the management of risk including the scope and effectiveness of the
strategy. policies and proceéures.
Since the Committee was set up in 2017 it has developed its role and has become
an established part of the oversight of internal controls. It met 4 times during 2022
and also held a joint meeting with the Finance Committee. The minutes of all these
meetings have been presented to the Board of Trustees.
As part of good govemance, the Chair of this committee ha5 met with both our
Extemal and Intemal Auditors outside of the committee meetings to gain
independent assurance on BVT'S controls over its business.
Internal Audlt Programme
Intemal audit is an important element of the intemal control process. Apart from
its normal risk driven programme of worf(, including recommending improvements
to service areas, internal audit is responsible for aspects of the annual review of
the effectiveness of the intemal control system within the organisation, giving an
independent objective assessment of Ihe effectiveness of the risk management
and control processes operating at BVT.
The internal audit programme for 2022 was fully delivered and an Annual Intemal
Audit Assurance Report Was presented to the Audit & Risk Committee in January
2023 and lo the Board of Trustees in March 2023.
Mazars audit opinion was as follows.. -
On the basis of our internal audit work, our opinion on the framework of
governance, risk management. and control is Moderate in its overall adequacy
and effectiveness. We noted some areas in which the control environment could
be improved, for instance we raised one Highly Important recommend8tion as part
of the cyclical Compliance Review recommendations. Of the four strategic audits
conducted in 2022, in each case an Adequate assurance lev81 was provided and
it was noted there were no reports in 2022 with Limited assurance or where critical
recommendations We￿ raised. This and all other matters have been discussed
with management, to whom we have made saveral ￿CoMMendatIOns. All of these
have been, or are in the process of being addressed, as detailed in our individual
reports.
The Audit & Risk Committee took a robust role in temis of ensuring scrutiny and
oversight of both the tracking and implementation of internal audit
recommendations through regular and more delailed reporting of any outstanding
fundamental recommendations as part of the quarterly Risk & Assurance report5.

Extemal Audit
External audit provldes feedback to the Trustees on the operation of the intemal
financial controls reviewed as part of the annual audit.
In April 2023, RSM UK issued their latest Audit Findings Report. based on BVT'S
2022 financial statements. received a clean audit opinion and there have
been no disagreements with management regarding financial reporting for the
purpose of issuing the audit report.
BW, BVD and BWHS all received a clean audit opinion and there have been no
disagreements with management regarding financial reporting for the purpose of
issuing the audit report.
Thlrd Party Reports
External assessments and advice provide additional and useful assurance. Major
sources include regulatory judgements and independent advice around
govemance, treasury management, health and safety and supported housing.
Extemal expertise and impartiality play an important role in supporting BVT to
review aspects of its work. During 2022 BVT used extemal parties to support the
following..

Committees.
Bvf submitted a self-referral of non-compliance with the Smoke and Carbon
Monoxide Alarm Regulations 2022 in November 2022 with a detailed action plan
to meet compliance by 30th September 2023. The Regulator confirmed thattaking
into account the information provided, Bwf had not breached any of the regulatory
standards.

Effectiveness of Controls
Our risk and control mechanisms are generally effective. This annual internal
controls certification process has not highlighted any issues that were not
previously identified through nomial management processes.
The Executive leam has reviewed the effectiveness of the system of internal
controls, including the sources of assurance agreed by the Board. There is
sufficient evidence to confirm that adequate systerns of internal control are in pla
and operated throughout the year.
Reserves
All surpluses generated are reinvested to meet the Group's principal objectives,
therefore, the reserves that the Group has accumulated have been largely
invested in its housing and other properties and are not represented by cash
balances. The rationale for certain restricted reserves is explained within the
Accounting Policies section.
Fixed Assets
Details of the changes in fixed assets are set out in Notes 7A and 78 to the
financial statements.

Auditor's rèspon5ibililbes for the audit of the financial 5talerneiits
Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
r8 free from material misslatemenl, whether due lo fraud or error, and lo issue an auditor's report that
includes our opinlon. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, bul is not a guarantee Ihal an
audil conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delecl a materi81 misstatement when il exists,
Misstalemenls can arfse from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users taken on
the basi5 of Ihese financial statements.
The extent to which the audit was considered capable of delecling irregularities, including fraud
I￿egUlaritIeS are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit
are lo obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding compliance with laws and regulations that
have a direct effect on the d81ermination of material amounts and dIs¢losu￿5 in the financial
slalemenls. lo perform audit procedures to help idenlrfy instances of non-compliance with other laws

assessed risks of malerlal misslatemenl due to fraud through designing and implementing appropriate
responses and to respond appropriatety to fraud or Suspected fraud identified during the audit.
However, it is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with
govemance. to ensure that the enliws operation5 are conducted in aceordance with the provisions of
laws and regulatsons and for tho p￿Vention and detection of fraud.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud,
tha audit engagement team..
obtained an understanding of the nature of the sector, including the legal and regulatory
framework that the Group and Association operates In and how the Group and Association are
complying with the legal and regulatory framework.,
inquired of management, and those charged with 9overnance, about their own identification
and assessment of the rlsks of irregularities, includin9 any known actual, suspected or alleged
instances of fraud..
¢Jiscussed m8lters about non-compllance with law3 and regulallon$ and how fraud might occur
Including assessment of how and where the flnanclal stalemenl8 may be susceptible to fraud.
As 8 result of these procedures we consld8r the most significant laws and regulations that have 8 direct
impact on the finan¢ial statements are FRS 102, Charities Act 2011, the Housing and Regeneration Act
2008, the Accountlng Direction for Private Registered Providers of Soclal Housing 2019 and tax
compliance legislation. We performed audlt procedures lo delecl non-compliances which may have a
material impact on the flnanc181 sl8temenls which included reviewing financial stalernenl disclosures.
The most signilicanl laws and regulations that have an indirect impact on tha financial 5181emenls are
Heallh and Safety al Work Act 1974, the Regulator of Social Housing Regulatory Standards (both
Economic and Consumer standards) and the General Dala Protection Regulations as set out in the
Data Protection Act 2018. We performed audll procedures lo inquire of management whether the
company is in compliance wilh Ihese18w and regulations and inspected correspondence with li¢enging
or regulalory authorities.
The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls and care and olhor
income as the areas where the financial slalemenls were most susceptible to material mi5Stalemenl
due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included bul were not limited to lestlng manual joumal enlrles
and other adiustmenls, evaluating the busine$$ rationale in relation to signlficant, unusual transactions
and iransaclions entered into outside the normal course of business, challenging judgmenls and
e51imale5 and detailed gubslanlive sampling testing for revenue.
