## Report of the Trustee
## Achievements and Performance
## Priority 1
## Enhance and Improve current facilities management services provided to residents and leaseholders in Monmouth
The year saw the first full year with the new Facilities Management Service in place and the service was inevitably impacted by the Pandemic. Our contractors initially were only dealing with emergency repairs, but as restriction eased in the summer of 2020 the team recommenced carrying out routine repairs in accordance with Welsh Government guidelines. All compliance tests including Gas safety checks and servicing were also carried out during the year.
The Charity continued to work with Monmouthshire Council in relation to void properties in the context of homelessness to ensure the flow of properties as required.
## Priority 2
## Recruit a part time dedicated Scheme manager for the Service
Following a successful recruitment process the Scheme appointed its first dedicated scheme manager. This means that for the first time residents have a manager that is based on site rather than a visiting service. The Scheme manager is responsible for Lettings, managing rental income, undertaking all Health and Safety Checks and providing a support service to residents
## Priority 3
## Maintain levels of satisfaction levels during the transition to the new Repairs and Scheme Manager service model
The results of the Resident satisfaction survey carried out in 2020 at the scheme show that Satisfaction levels with repairs and maintenance remained at the same level. In 2019 satisfaction with the overall maintenance service was 80%.
The results of the 2020 survey show:
- 87% Satisfaction with the overall appearance of the scheme
- 87% satisfaction with Grounds Maintenance
- 87% satisfaction with the last completed repair
- 80% satisfaction with overall maintenance services
In terms of satisfaction with the overall service provided by the Scheme Manager there was 94% satisfaction with the overall service provided by the Scheme Manager and 100% satisfaction with ease of contact during working hours.
## Plans for the year Ahead
Our plans and objectives for the year ahead include
- Ensure that the scheme is 100% compliant with Key Health and Safety regulations
- 95% of repairs are completed on target
- Void losses are limited to 2.7%
- Resident arrears are limited to 3.6%

## Legal structure, governance and management
William Jones’s Almshouse Charity is a registered charity number 230514. The charity is governed by a scheme of the Charity Commission dated 12 July 2001, modified by a scheme dated 3 October 2007 and by special resolution of the Trustee dated 23 June 2011.
The charity shares the governance and management structure of Bristol Charities. Day to day management of the charity is delegated to the Chief Executive (Anne Anketell). The Chief Executive reports progress on key areas of work to the Board on a regular basis. The address of the principal office of the charity as well as names of the charity’s Trustee, Bristol Charities, can be found on pages 1 to 2.
## Training induction and appraisal of trustees
Bristol Charities is the sole corporate trustee of William Jones’s Almshouse Charity and therefore the following paragraphs relate to the trustees of Bristol Charities.
New Trustees take part in a Structured Induction Programme, attending meetings with key staff and other Trustees, visiting projects and sites and are encouraged to attend all committees to really get an understanding of the work of the charity. This year the charity developed and introduced a comprehensive Induction Pack.
Trustees are sent information on a regular basis on training courses and briefings. A regular item has been introduced to the Board of Trustees meeting agenda to provide updates on policy/legislation changes. Trustees who have attended training are encouraged to share knowledge with fellow Trustees.
The Chair meets with each Trustee on an annual basis to review their performance and to receive feedback. A summary of those meetings is reported to the Nominations Committee. A Formal Trustee Appraisal Policy and Procedure is being implemented and this was being developed in the year.
## Public benefit
The objects and aims of William Jones’s Almshouse Charity are contained in the governing scheme dated 12 July 2001.
Its objects include the provision of housing accommodation for beneficiaries who
- i) Are in need, hardship or distress, and
- ii) Have resided in the area of benefit, the county of Monmouthshire
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit from section 17 of the Charities Act 2011. We believe that the work of William Jones’s Almshouse Charity has directly benefited people by
- Providing excellent, purpose-build accommodation at William Jones’s Almshouse, offering on site support and a safe community setting for older, vulnerable people.
The Trustee’s Report section on page 4 sets out the aims and strategies of the charity and demonstrates how the aims and activities of the charity during the year were carried out for the public benefit.
## Pay policy for senior staff
The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually by the Remuneration Committee.

## Risk Management
The Board of Trustees oversees risks annually with additional operational and financial risk assessment through delegation to the relevant committee and to the Audit and Health & Safety Committee.
It oversees its responsibility through its review of the effectiveness of the charity’s Risk Framework. This framework is designed to support informed decision-making regarding the risks that affect the charity’s performance and its ability to achieve its objectives.
Management of risk is embedded into our day-to-day business activities and wellestablished processes and policies are in place to manage them. All our employees have a role in reducing risk through our internal control framework.
Risks are recorded in a risk register and are evaluated in terms of impact and likelihood. The register also provides for a consistent approach to identifying assessing and dealing with the risks facing the charity so as to ensure they do not exceed the level of risk the charity is willing to assume. The register is designed to manage, rather than eliminate the risks to the charity’s objectives and to provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss.
The Audit and Health & Safety Committee biannually reviews the results of the risk reviews undertaken by management and approves an annual risk-based internal audit plan which covers the major risks identified.
## Principal Risk and uncertainties
Trustees and staff have, during the year, reviewed the principle risks to the charity. Actions to mitigate these risks have been developed and progress on these actions monitored regularly at both Board and Senior Team level. Trustees are satisfied that these mitigation actions have reduced the following risks to an acceptable level:

## Financial review
The charity reported total income for the year of £206,763 (2020: £194,790) and expenditure for the year of £239,259 (2020: £246,263), giving a deficit for the year of £32,496 (2020: £51,473). The deficit has been reduced year on year through a combination of a reduction in property voids in the year and careful management of costs.
2020-21 represents the second year that a planned preventative maintenance arrangement has been in place with Alder King LLP. This arrangement has been extended for a minimum of three years from 1 April 2021 after a rigorous procurement exercise. The arrangement should reduce the level of unforeseen reactive maintenance expenditure and allow the charity to smooth its costs over a longer period and therefore budget for these costs with more confidence.
## Going concern and reserves policy
The trustee has continued to monitor the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic both during the year and since the year end and has made changes to the charity’s operations accordingly.
Under the terms of the charity’s Reserves Policy and in forming a view on the charity as a Going Concern, the trustee has noted:
- The charity has a risk management framework which is updated annually. Risks identified are reviewed by the trustee’s Audit and Health & Safety Committee every six months.
- The charity has adequate insurance cover in place to mitigate against a potential business interruption event which might cause a loss of housing income
- The other risks to the charity and the protective steps taken to mitigate against them.
- The charity’s housing income from residents is secure, voids are closely monitored and housing demand remains high and has done throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
- The charity holds reserves at a level which is at or exceeds the Reserves Policy.
The trustee has determined that an appropriate level of free reserves is:
|One month of projected operating costs (i)
One year of almshouse sinking fund contributions (ii)|£
16,000
32,000
48,000|
|---|---|
(i) One month of operating costs is deemed appropriate as the nature of these activities means that one month is likely to represent a maximum time period over which they may be required to operate without any additional income.
(ii) This represents the annual contribution required to the charity’s almshouse sinking fund in order to build up sufficient funds to cover the cost of the likely cyclical maintenance programme over the life of that programme.
By contrast, the balance on unrestricted funds at the year end was £181,033, which is £133,033 ahead of target. The trustee has determined that this is appropriate given:
- Remaining economic uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic
- Financial forecasts for the charity for the coming years
- Internal balance sheet risk such as that arising from the situation where cumulative sinking fund contributions are not sufficient to meet the capital maintenance requirements of the charity at any given time

## Independent Examiner’s Report
I report to the charity trustee on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021.
## Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the charity’s trustee, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## Independent Examiner’s Statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- a) accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
- b) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- c) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than ant requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## Notes to the Financial Statements
## 1. Accounting policies
## Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
## Going Concern
The charity’s activities and future plans are set out in the Trustee’s report.
The charity manages its activities with positive unrestricted bank balances. The Trustee’s forecasts and projections, taking account of the ongoing impact of Covid-19 and of reasonably foreseeable changes in income and expenditure, show that the charity should be able to continue to operate on this basis.
Based on the above the Trustee has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Trustee continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the report of the Trustee and the Financial Statements.
## Income and endowments
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis. Income has been recognised gross on the basis of entitlement and reliable measurement.
Rental income from housing properties is included on a receivables basis.
Investment income is recognised on an accruals basis.
Other incoming resources is recognised on an accruals basis when there is entitlement, and the receipt is probable, and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
## Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. The majority of costs are directly attributable to activities in furtherance of the objects of the charity.
## Support costs
Support costs for residents have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources (e.g. allocating staff costs by time spent and other costs by their usage).
## Governance costs
Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of the charity and its assets and are primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.

## 1. Accounting policies (continued)
## Value added tax
Value Added Tax (VAT) is not recoverable by the charity and expenditure is shown in the accounts inclusive of VAT.
## Tangible fixed assets
Housing properties are initially stated at cost. The cost of such properties includes the cost of acquiring land and buildings, development expenditure, and expenditure incurred in respect of improvements which increase the future net income stream. Interest is capitalised up to the date of practical completion of the relevant scheme.
Depreciation is charged on a straight-line basis as follows:
a. Housing Properties
|a. Housing Properties||
|---|---|
|Component|Useful Economic Life (Years)|
|Kitchens, Bathrooms, Heating|20|
|Roof, Windows, Lift|20-30|
|Structure|100|
b. Fixtures, fittings and equipment
|b. Fixtures, fittings|and equipment|
|---|---|
|Component|Useful Economic Life (Years)|
|All|5|
Depreciation is split between the unrestricted and endowment funds pro rata to the net book value of the underlying fixed assets.
No value is attributed to the land owned by the charity. Historical cost information is no longer available for this property and the Trustees consider that attempts to provide valuations on an existing use basis would produce no useful or reliable information. If it were possible to base a provision for depreciation on historical cost, it is probable that the amount would not be material.
## Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount net of any discounts offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any discount due.
## Creditors
Creditors are recognised when the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.
## Taxation
William Jones’s Almshouse Charity is a registered charity and as such is entitled to relevant tax exemptions on its charitable income and gains properly applied under normal circumstances for its charitable purposes.

## 1. Accounting policies (continued)
## Funds Structure
Designated funds represent unrestricted funds which have been earmarked by the charity for specific purposes. They include an amount representing the net book value of fixtures, fittings and equipment.
Unrestricted funds represent income received which is expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity.
Restricted reserves represent the amounts charged to householders as service charges less costs incurred relating to the Householders share of the common areas.
Endowment reserves represent the original endowment of the charity which was used to invest in freehold land and buildings less the depreciation of endowment properties.

## 6. Other expenditure
When William Jones’s Almshouse was built, ten private houses were also built on the site to help fund construction of the new almshouse. The houses were sold by the developer on long leases. The charity manages the site and charges a service charge to the leaseholders (see note 4). During the year, £2,967 (2020: £1,910) of the costs of maintaining the site, facilities and administration have been allocated to the service charges paid by the ten private leaseholders.
## 7. Transfers
£1,464 (2020: £1,255) has been transferred from almshouse funds to a sinking fund for future maintenance of the site areas and facilities shared with the ten private leasehold houses.
