CHAIRPERSONS REPORT
FINANCIAL YEAR 2024-2025
It is h8rd at the end of this finan¢i81year to look back and $88 8ny discernible change in
the social or economic outlook faced by the country andwithinthat, the communityof
Donc8Sterwhich this charityserves . The economicand politicaloutlook both nationalty
and locally has a direct impact and they continu8 to be coloured by another year of

conllict in wlder Europe . political unc8rtainty in the UK and ever louder rumblingsfrom
the USAthreatening trade andthe economy.
The Governments fin8ncialstrategy almed to put the public finances on a sustainable
footing . increase investment growth and reduce the systemic failure of the welfare
system to support the poor and sick in the country. Yet despite the major welfare
shakeupannounced Éndthe DWP spend of288 biL￿onwith8 notableincreasein pension
credit applications it would seem that there has been an increase in poverty and social
insecurity. Th8tpositlon is evident inthe City of Doncast￿. as theTrUSte￿ continue to
meet the needs of applicat's to the charity.
ThefundamentalmaF*ers forthe success of thischarity islts 8billtyto deliver an Income
andto identifythose in need, In ordertofulfilthe objects of thecharity.
Th8welLbeingofthefinances isnota taskwhichtheTrustees take lightlysndthroughout
the year the Trustees have kepi a close eye on the stock merket returns 8ndthose of the
property m8rk8t.
A quarter of the income eamed by the charity is provided by the stock market
investmentswhichare managedunderthe watchful8ye otadvisorsBrewin Doiphin.That
has not been an easy task and the year saw a small realised loss in value .Over811
however the income retum e8timated at 4.25% on the investrnentwas maintained and
th8Trustees remained confid8nt inthe approacht8kenbytheir advisorswhom8nagethe
fund on a discretionary basis at an agreed ri8k level.
The remainder of the income comes from the Propety Portfoilo and a revaluation this
year saw an increase in the portfolio of £200,000. and theoverall position at the end of
theyearshow8d anincrease inthecharltyfunds of£187.439.Whilethat provides s level
ol comfort going foward the Trustees are also very awar8 that there has been 8n
increase in the expenditure on the properties held in the portfolio . This incrèase flows
from the in¢reas8 in regularity requirements resulting fram the Building Safety Act 2022
and the year saw the start of a program to improve the facilities in Chapman House
includingthe provision of new fire doors throughoutthe building . Such improvernents
and repairs sawa cost of£49,198 overthe year but the Trustees are confidentthat the
ongoing cycle of repairs supports the longevity and value of the properties as a
productive means of financialsupport for th8 Trust . The property 8gents continue to
manage the Properties 81ongside Jordans 8nd the Twstees rem8in confident that the
rental incomes are b88n expediently manged and the assets are producing a balanced
return.
The S￿Ond arm of the Trustees responsibility is the appropriate and meaningful
ijistributionof funds undertheterms ofthe object ofthecharityschema. There hasbeen
no discemible change in the demographics of applicants since the previous two years
which saw a move away from younger people seeking clothing awards to a growth in

applications from familiés. those suffering domestic violence and members of the
communitywho were previously homeless and were trylng to move back into housi
Carpets remain the top of the list and research shows that this is the Case with similar
charities across thBCountry. Despite a numberofnationalcampaigns itsseems that to
date Councils ha￿ continued to fouow a policy of ripping out carpet on 8 change of
tenant no matter wh8t condition they are in. The Trustees are resolved to attempt to
persuade the Council to re-view this policy over the comingyear . In the meantime we
have continued to adopt a poliw of limiting carpet applications to priority needs
excluding hall, stairs andianding, makinglounge and children's bedrooms the priority if
granted. That has reduced the overall carpet spend.
We Continueto be awarethatthe need we tryto meet direct individual applications is
only th8 tip of the iceberg and a signif icant poverty still exists within the City for the
provision of affordable food. Inflation and the increasing cost of rents, and energy all
reduce the avaiiablefunds to many members of th8 community and Charities such as
Fairshare Yorkshire remain 8 vital sourc8 of relief locally . Whilé the TNstees remaln of
the view that their primary object18 best met by direct r81i8f that have felt that it was
appropri8teto release furth8rfunds to support F8irsh8re duringthe cour8e oftheyear.
The Tru$tees contlnue to benefit from the organis8tional b8se provided by Jordans
Soticitors whlch brlngs with it an office presence for the members of the community
seekingto directly 8¢cess assistance.The staff who de8lwlth the 8ppllcantsalongwlth
the trust visitor provide an additional benefit to applicants whether in assisting In the
completion of the applications. arrangingfora homevisit or directing them to alternative
sources of fundingand advice via the welfare systems wlthln the City. The Trustvlsltor
remains a vital cog in the process by aiding he Trustees in making the right decision in
relation to the allocation of funds while reviewing appli¢ation8 and ensuring funds are
allo¢atedwhere they are needed the most.
In summary despite th8 overarching constraints of increased costs and growir
demands,theTrustees have maintaineda constantflow ofincomeand overallthe funds
have shown a reasonable levél of growth. We have been dikngent in our methods of
distribution and have met real need within the City during the year. Individual
distributions and those to Fairshare arnount to £33,197. It would be foolish to try ar4J
predict the comingyear which has allthe h811 marks of continuing unrest both politically
8nd financially but despite this we as Trustees are confident that our strategy is robust
and we can meet the coming year from a position of béing financial sound aNJ
d8t8Tmined to meet the objects of theTrust .
