## Trustees’ annual report 

## for the year ended 31st October 2024 

The charity is governed by a trust deed dated 21 January 1960.  A board of Governors (who are the trustees of the charity) manages the unincorporated association, which is registered with the Charity Commissioners, number 222486. 

The trustees present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31st October 2024. 

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the charity’s trust deed and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The charity provides sheltered accommodation for older people who are able to live independently. They are eligible to apply for the accommodation if they have been living either in the County Borough of Stockport or within 5 miles of Stockport Town Hall for the ten years immediately preceding their application.  Applicants complete in an application form and are interviewed by two trustees, who assess their needs according to the trust deed.  Selection is made on the basis of this need, regardless of race, gender, religion, political affiliation or sexual orientation.  If an applicant is considered to be suitable and there are no vacancies a waiting list is kept and updated regularly. 

The trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on Public Benefit and feel that the provision and maintenance of the sheltered accommodation described is of benefit to the public.  Both trustees and the manager are concerned that all residents feel part of a mutually supportive community and receive daily checks on their welfare. 

The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes. 

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

## **Achievements and performance** 

The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on the housing scheme and its residents and are undertaken to further The Doctors Green and Slater Rest Houses’ charitable purposes for the public benefit. 

During the year to 31 October 2024; the scheme has on average provided sheltered accommodation for twenty-five residents.

## **Operational developments:** 

Residents – 

- On average there were 26 residents (beneficiaries of the charity) living at the scheme over 2022-2023. There are 25 flats in total, 6 small studio flats and 18 one-bedroom flats of various sizes (12 with double bedrooms). 24 of these were occupied for most of the year. One studio flat was held back to be used as a site office for the Development Project Contractors, and following the completion of the development work, required refurbishment before it was ready for occupancy. 

- All flats are connected to a 24/7 emergency call service that can be accessed by all residents when the manager is not on site. 

- One resident left because of age related difficulties, the resident was no longer able to live independently and moved to residential care. New residents were appointed from the waiting list. 

- A small number of residents had accrued some debts in relation to their weekly Occupation Charge for their flats. By the end of October 2024 this underpayment matter had, for the large part, been resolved. 

- Resident social and community activities have begun to thrive again, with Resident run events such as bank holiday meals, an increase in use of the lounge for board games and other activities. 

- The charity has partnered with a local community arts social enterprise organization to offer fortnightly sessions of chair yoga and singing. These have been well attended, and funding was awarded for the sessions to continue on a weekly basis starting in September 2024. 

- The trustees participated in the annual Christmas lunch for residents and trustees at a local venue in December 2024. 

Building and estate maintenance and repair – The trustees and staff endeavor to maintain a high standard of repair and maintenance to the whole property, using the services of local trades persons and operators. 

Building renewal and development – The completion of the large building and renewal project that commenced in May 2023 was delayed and did not complete until May 2024. The main reasons for this were the challenge of additional asbestos being found in the original structure of the roof that had not been identified in the initial asbestos survey undertaken at the start of the work. This resulted in further exposure of the building to very heavy rain in autumn 2023 which required reparative work from water ingress needing to be undertaken in a number of flats. 

The outcome of the development project is that the main building (a significant part of the site) now has a new roof and solar panels, one existing flat has been refurbished to increase accessibility and the original warden’s house has been converted into two additional one-bedroom flats. 

Staffing – There are two employed staff.  A Housing Manager (appointed in December 2023 following the retirement of the previous manager in September 2022) and a Charity Administrator. Both posts are part time. The post of Charity Administrator has a split role working to support both the Housing manager and the Board of Trustees. 

Almshouses Association – The Charity’s membership of the umbrella organization that supports independent housing charities the Almshouse Association has continued to be a valued and much used resource by both trustees and staff.

## Trustees’ annual report 

## for the year ended 31st October 2024 

CIO progress – The work undertaken by the Trustees to convert Drs Green and Slater unincorporated Trust to Charitable Incorporated Organization continued throughout the year. The final transfer documents were agreed and signed on October 2024. 

This means that the reporting year 2023-2024 is the final reporting year for the Unincorporated Trust and the year 2024-2025 will be the first reporting year of Drs Green and Slater CIO. 

## **Beneficiaries of our services** 

The beneficiaries of our services are the residents who fulfil the criteria outlined above and as set out in the trust deed.  Residents need to be capable of living independently. 

Residents are contacted daily to check on their welfare, outside of working hours this service continues with an out-of-hours call service. 

## **Financial review** 

The trustees confirm that the restricted and unrestricted funds are available and adequate to fulfil the obligations of the charity. 

The charity’s investments show a satisfactory return.  The income derived from investing the trust fund is used to pay for the services of the Housing Manager, the Charity Administrator, an out of hours cover service, and to subsidise the weekly occupation charge made to residents.  The trustees are also committed to a rolling programme of refurbishment and maintenance of the scheme buildings and site (see elsewhere in the report).  The trustees apply the income in administering, managing and maintaining the Rest Houses.  They are also responsible for insuring the property against fire and other risks, and paying all other outgoings, salaries and expenses in respect of the property.  The trustees have the bulk of our investments to various ethical investment funds in line with our overall aims and objectives. 

The financial statements disclose net incoming resources of £400,483 (net incoming resources of £27,122 in 2023). 

Further, unrestricted funds amounted to £4,064,146 with free reserves of £2,558,783.  Of this figure £2,391,260 is money held by the investment brokers, with £167,523 remaining for the Trustees to leave adequate working capital. 

Restricted funds are designated for expending on extraordinary repairs and at the year-end amounted to £58,986 (£243,595 in 2023). 

There are no uncertainties regarding the charity’s ability to continue, as a going concern. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Our principal responsibility is for the long-term housing of elderly people.  Because of the vulnerable nature of our residents, we recognise that we have responsibility to provide a safe financial environment in which to operate.  We believe it is prudent to retain one year’s operating costs as a minimum, although this is mitigated somewhat by the occupation charges made to residents.  Our property was built in the 1960s, when one bed studio flats were quite acceptable to our target residents.  In order to ensure the acceptability of our accommodation in the foreseeable future, we believe a more substantial amount would be needed for any future building project designed to improve the standard of accommodation.  Until such projects are agreed we would need to hold in reserve an additional sum of £150,000 which would be released if and when further development takes place.

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The statutory power of appointing new or additional trustees is governed by the trust deed, which states that no person shall be qualified to be appointed unless he or she shall at the date of appointment be a member of the Quaker meetings (The Religious Society of Friends) and any interested Quaker is invited to a meeting of the existing trustees.  If they are willing to go forward their appointment is confirmed at a subsequent meeting.  There are on average six trustees in post at any one time.  All trustees are encouraged to attend training sessions on topics relevant to their duties and are given a copy of the original trust deed.  There is no formal constitution apart from this trust deed. 

No external body is entitled to appoint a trustee to then scheme. 

The organisation is an unincorporated charity, registered as a charity on 21[st] January 1960 in England and Wales. 

The charity is constituted under a trust deed dated 21[st] January 1960. The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. 

We are very grateful to the Trustees who give their time and knowledge voluntarily to the Charity. 

The Charity has membership of The Almshouse Association acting as an umbrella organisation supporting small charitable trusts who provide housing to people in need. The Almshouse Association provides valuable guidance to the Charity, the Trustees and Staff. 

The Charity Administrator took up post at the end of October and recruitment for the post of Housing Manager is progressing. 

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. No trustee expenses were claimed in this year. 

## **Funds held as custodian trustee on behalf of others** 

The charity does not act as custodian trustee for any other organisation.

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the period and of its financial position at the end of the period. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and 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. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

The trustees’ annual report has been approved by the trustees on ___/___/2025 and signed on their behalf by Frances McCann

## Independent Examiner’s Report 

## To the members of 

## The Doctors Green and Slater Rest Houses 

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31[st] October 2024 which are set out on pages 8 to 22. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider 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 needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

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

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 trustees 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 statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

   - to keep  accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act 

have not been met;  or 

- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
