| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | There have been two significant developments during the course of the year. The first has been the adoption (with two exceptions) of a completely revised set of policies and risk assessments and the institution of an annual programme for their review. They will provide a sound framework for conduct of the charity in future years. The second has been the adoption of a website focussed on attracting new residents when there are vacancies, but which discourages fruitless enquiries when there are none. Mrs Watkins is to be thanked for her work over several years in bringing this about. |
Financial Review
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | The year has proved to be a challenging one, principally as a consequence of a succession of houses falling vacant. Strict economies have had to be observed and plans to obtain funds with which to renovate No 7 (which had recently fallen vacant) had to be deferred in the light of projected capital expenditure on a leaking |

water main and a perceived requirement to
upgrade the residents’ analogue
emergency alarm system.
Thankfully, by the year end the economies
had preserved the level of cash reserves
and a position was emerging from which an
application for loan funding for No 7 might
be made.
Statement explaining the Para 1.22 The trustees’ policy is to retain at least
policy for holding reserves £5,000 on current account to meet working
stating why they are held capital requirements and unexpected
shortfalls in revenue or increases in
expenditure.
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 Cash reserves at the end of the year were
£19,315.00.

| A description of the principal risks facing the charity |
Para 1.46 | A requirement to replace several boilers in one year remains a major risk, but also failure to obtain funding to renovate No 7 and to rectify defects in the renovation of No 3 would place a strain on finances because of the reduction in revenue arising from the vacancy In terms of impact, the greatest risk would be a requirement to replace the roof of the Chapel and/or the fleche. |
