The trustees have pleasure in presenting their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2021.
Objectives and Activities of the Charity
The charity's objective is to provide almshouse accommodation for aged poor and deserving persons within the parish of Aylesford in accordance with the Trust Deed dated 22 July 1960. The charity is registered with the Charity Commission (registration number 225510), and with the Regulator of Social Housing (registration number A3564). The activities for the year are set out on pages 4 and 5 in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Structure, governance and management
The board of trustees consists of a maximum of three ex-officio trustees, being the vicar and churchwardens in the parish of Aylesford, two nominative trustees appointed by Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council for a four year term, and three co-optative trustees appointed for a five year term at a meeting of the trustees. They are local people, often but not always with some connection to the church, who are thought to be suitable on account of their skills and interests. At induction, new Trustees are given copies of the minutes of recent board meetings and a copy of "The Essential Trustee" produced by the Charities Commission and dated June 2005.
All decisions are made by the trustees at meetings held several times a year.
The following trustees held office during the year and since the year end:

During the year, in accordance with the Charity's aims, the charity's principal activity for the public benefit was to provide supported housing consisting of eleven single flats and three double flats. All of the flats were occupied for the whole year.
The surplus for the year amounts to £30,089 (2020 - £38,762) and the detail thereof is set out on pages 4 and 5.
Risk management
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the exposure to major risks.

Financial Review
Policy on reserves
There is no formal policy. The trustees have to be prepared to meet an unexpected crisis, although the buildings and contents are insured appropriately.
The cyclical maintenance fund is designed to meet the cost of routine maintenance and repairs, whereas the extraordinary repair fund is designed to meet the costs of unexpected repairs and other work.
At the year end the charity's reserves amounted to £588,539 (2020 £558,450) consisting of a cyclical maintenance reserve of £34,000 (2020 £34,000), an extraordinary repair fund of £83,262 (2020 £83,262) and income and expenditure reserves of £471,277 (2020 £441,188).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021
1 Accounting policies
The charity is registered with the Charities Commission as a charitable trust and with the Regulator of Social Housing as a registered provider of social housing. The charity is a public benefit entity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards including Financial Reporting Standard 102 - the Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the Statement of Recommended Practice for Social Housing Providers 2018, and comply with the Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing in England 2019. The financial statements are also prepared under the requirements of the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008.
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
The accounts are presented in sterling which is the operational currency of the charity and are rounded to the nearest pound.
1.1 Fixed assets - housing property
The Hospital of the Holy Trinity was built in the first quarter of the seventeenth century. There is no record of the original cost and accordingly no value is attributed thereto.
Cost brought forward, therefore, represents development expenditure incurred on the Hospital in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Where the costs of development have not qualified for Housing Association Grants and have not been considered for mortgage loans by the relevant lending authority they have been met out of reserves.
The trustees perform annual impairment reviews to ensure that the recoverable amount is not lower than the carrying value. In accordance with FRS102, cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended such as the cost of acquiring land and buildings, developments costs, interest charges on loans during the development period and expenditure on improvements. Expenditure on improvements will only be capitalised when it results in incremental future benefits such as increasing rental income, reducing maintenance costs or resulting in a significant extension of the useful economic life of the property.
1.2 Component Accounting
Major components of housing properties capitalised are accounted for and depreciated separately from the connected housing property over their expected useful lives.
No separate components are accounted for on the development expenditure incurred in the late 1980s and early 1990s as the capitalised costs represent the expenditure carried out in converting the existing accommodation from single rooms with a shared bathroom and toilets to twelve single and two double self-contained flats in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The costs are therefore not separable and are depreciated as shown in note 1.3.
New boilers were installed in the year ended 31 July 2016 and depreciated as shown in note 1.3.
Roofing works were completed in the year ended 31 July 2017 and are now being depreciated as shown in note 1.3.

THE HOSPITAL OF THE HOLY TRINITY, AYLESFORD
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021
1.3 Depreciation
The trustees have elected to depreciate the components of the housing properties at the following annual rates:
| Component | Life (Years) | Depreciation |
|---|---|---|
| Development expenditure | 50 | 2% |
| Roofing | 30 | 3.30% |
| Boilers | 15 | 6.60% |
1.4 Housing Association Grant
Housing Association Grant (HAG) was paid by the Housing Corporation to reduce the cost of development and is accounted for as deferred income and as a liability due within one year and after more than one year. The income is recognised through the statement of comprehensive income over the life of the building structure for which it was received. HAG is repayable under certain circumstances, primarily following the sale of a property but will normally be restricted to the proceeds of sale.
1.5 Investments
Fixed asset investments are valued at cost less a reduction for any permanent diminution in value.
They are not valued at market value as the market is quite volatile and resultant increases and decreases in value would not aid the user's understanding of the accounts.
Investment income is credited to the accounts on an accruals basis.
1.6 Extraordinary repairs fund
This is a designated reserve and represents amounts set aside to carry out major repairs on housing property. Sums provided each year for this purpose are invested in the Charities Official Investment Fund Accumulation Shares or the COIF Charities Deposit Fund.
1.7 Cyclical maintenance reserve
This is a designated reserve and represents amounts set aside for cyclical maintenance to meet costs in excess of budgeted expenditure for any year.
1.8 Government grants
Grants are credited to deferred revenue. Grants towards capital expenditure are released to the profit and loss account over the expected useful life of the assets. Grants towards revenue expenditure are released to the profit and loss account as the related expenditure is incurred.
- 1.9 Monthly maintenance contributions and rental income
Monthly maintenance contributions represent the rental charges income receivable for the year from the supported housing, net of rent losses from voids, and includes Supporting People income where this has been used to reduce the rents collected from the tenant.
Rental income represents rent receivable for the year from sources other than supported housing.
1.10 Donations and other voluntary income
Donations and other voluntary income are included in the accounts in the period in which they are received.
1.11 Resources Expended
Expenditure is included on an accruals basis
1.12 Loans and borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment.

1.13 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
No significant judgements have had to have been made by the trustees nor have they identified any key sources of estimation uncertainty other than identifying the main components of housing properties (as shown in note 5) and estimating their useful lives (as per note 1.3).
