pharmacist for many years.
OrBanlsatlonal structure
The Trustees Committee Is responsible for the supervislon of the company's attivitles. Because several of the members of the
Trustees Committee are also members of the House Cornmittee, the Trustees Cotnmittee only tends to meet when there ère policv

reason to meet ad hoc.
Full minutes of the meetings are circulated to the Trustees who are all voluntary. They are also updated by email for lower level
matters during the course of the year.

The aim of the Executive Committee 15 to achieve full occupancy. Notwithstanding long periods when the House is fvlly occupied,
applicants for places are still sought and successful applicants added to a waiting list. Where applicants are looking for extra care,
which the company Is unable to provlde, they are referred to exrra care homes In the vlcinlty.
Introduclion
Once again our ye3r h35 been busy with a variety of activities a huge marketing push to try to fill two v3c3ncies. There has also
been a much more significant need to carry out refurbishment and repair projects and this has meant that our staff and volunteers
have been working very hard. More detail is set out In the text below.
Overall, AbbeyField Dulwich continues to be a kindly. efficient and caring organisation, with dedicated and well organised staff and
volunteers.
Resldents
We have seen some slgnlficant changes to our resident population in the last year and this trend has contlnued until the most recent
months.
We had five residents lout of seven flatletsl at the end of our Financial Year.
We introduced as mèny external visits and attivities as we could to add in extra interest to enh8nce the overall 8tmosphere in the
House.
To assist in the 51nooth-running of the house we have introduced a Quarterly House Meeting that Delia (House Man38erl and Paul
Ichairl attend with the resident5. This discipline a150 helps Wlth the requirement5 of the Housing Ombudsman. The Housekeepers are
also Invited to attend when their duties allow. At these meetings we listen to residents, ideas about the House In a more formal
context and hear what they might like to change or improve. It has also been a good forum to exp18in any projerts we believÈ should
be progres*d and thereby supports the attivities that the House Committee undertake. Minutes are taken and iirculated to all.
Health
Several of our residents have longer term chronic illnesses which will result in their moving on from our House. These situations are
m8naged with each resident 8nd their fèmilylsponsor in a swnpathetic and constructive manner.
Vacanry management
We continue to receive enquirie5 from prospective residents and market Abbeyrield Dulwich's offer locally as this h35 been the best
Source of new leads. We operate a waiting list and interact regularlywith candidates on that list.
staffing
Our housekeepers, Pauline and Karen, continued to provide very good information and ideas to support the welfare of our residents.
The stèndard of the meals thèt they prepare is excellent and the response by the residents Is very f3vourable. Both HKS att as 'eyes
and ears, on any particular issues that are Coming up and have been instrumental in smoothing over the tensions mentioned above.
Delia, our Hou* Manager, h35 been working very hard this year dealing with rnuch of the burden to manage the changeover of
flatlet5 from one resident to another. The general 3dmini5tr3tion for the charity is 3150 very extensive and so my thanks to her, in
particular, for her positive and constructive approach to all these tasks.
Buildings
We have a numberof projettsthat we have completed or are considering forthe House..
These are..
Completed. Re-laying the paving in the front garden of number 9150 that it 15 level and provides a better surface and setting for the
bench that residents use

Please see a note In Flnances below on fundlng forthese Irems.
Finance5
Our financial p051tion remains Stable despite the void periods noted above. This is because our investments with Rathbones are
producing a good return and these sums bridge the gap in our rental income. Thank you to Glyn Abbott for managing these
investments.
Roger Humbles has produced a budget for 2024125 and it has been approved by all the Trustees. ￿ always, this has been an exercise
which he h45 ￿rrIed out with a great deal of thoughtfulness and diligence.
As 8 particular note to this budget it should be highlighted that we 8re only budgeting for a IO% void in our room occup8ncy next
year. Although the actual vacancy % is closer to 28%, we note that the Regulator of Soclal Housing Ilmits our ablllty to ralse funds vSa
rents to CPI plus 1%.
We will establish a development fund during the year to finance buildings projects. Thi5 sum of £IOOk has been the source of fund5
for the projects above and Is part of the legacy received from Frank Ralfe, 3 former Trustee. We were fortunate to receive 3 large
legacy from his estate of E462,565 in December 2023 which has enabled us to plan these improvements to our premises and fèciliries.
It has allowed us to consider investing in the offer and the fabric of the buildings aside from the regular income from our Rathbones
investments.
GA, RH and I continued to monitor our Rathbones investment profile to decide whether to reduce our risk rating. Whilst we are not
significantly exposed, we do wish to man8ge our market investments so that we can preserve our values as much as possible for the
longer term.
Investing in our staff, the 2023124 accounts a150 show £4,437 for Delia's law iour5e Iwith a Sum of £8,886 planned in 20241251- Thi5
will a150 allow the charity to better understand the latest and best methods of governance in the sector as well as providing valuable
continuing professional development for her.
We remained vigilant on costs this last year and reminded residents and Housekeepers to practice good enew management in
particular. We have reviewed the budget and actual at the House Committee monthly meetings and have tsken correttive action if
needed.
Abbeyneld England
We remain affiliated to Abbeffield England, as it Is now known, following a reorganisation and restructure.
Events
Games and jigsaws sessions have taken place most weeks. These are supported by volunteers and a￿ welcomed by a core of
residents.
We had 3 Small 5umrner party in july for residents, familie5 and volunteer5 and it was notable for the rel3Ked atmosphere and
friendliness.
House Committee
Thanks, as always, EO to the HC for their generous and kind support of Abbeyfield Dulwich. Offering their tirne, enerEy and good

All financial assÈts and liabilitiÈs are initially measured at transaction prite lintluding transaction costs), Èxtept for those
financi31 355ets cla55ified 35 at fair value through profit or 1055, which are initially measured 3t fair value (which is normallv

arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial 113bility is measured at the present value of
the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt Instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and On￿ when there exists a legally
enforceable right to set off the recogni5ed arnounts and the charity intends either to Settle on a net basis, or to reali5e the
asset and settle the liability Simultaneously.

expire or are settled, bl the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the
financi31 asset, or cl the charity, de5Plte having retained Some, but not 311, significant ris￿ and reward5 of owner5hipi has

Investments
Investments in non<onvertible preferen￿ shares and non-puttable ordinary or preference share5 (where shares are publicly
traded or their fair value is reliably me3surablel are measured at fair v31ue through profit or loss. Where fair v31ue cannot be
measured reliably, Investments a￿ measured at cost less impairment.
Investment5 in 5ub5idi4ries and 4550ciate5 are measured at cost le55 irnpairment. For inve5tment5 in 5ub5idiaries acquired lor
con5ideratioN including the i55ue of shares qualifying for merger relief, c05t Is measured by reference to the nominal value of
the shares issued plus fair value of other consideration. Any premium is ignored.
Derivative financial iNttrumÈnts
The charity use5 derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to foreign exchange risk and interest rate movements.
The charity does not hold or issue derivative financial instrumentsfor speculative purposes.
Derivatives are initially recoBnised at fair value at the d8te 8 deriv8tive contract is entered into and 8re subsequentlv
remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of financial
activities immediately unless the derivative is designated and effertive as è hedging instrutnent, in which event the timing of
the recognition in statement of financial activitie5 depend5 on the nature of the hedge rel4tionship.
Falr value measurement
The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an artive market. When quoted prices are
unavailable, the price of a relent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not
been a signrfic3nt change in economic cirium5tances or a signific3nt lapse of tirne since the transaction took place. If the
market ig not active and recent transaction5 of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair
value is estimated by using a valuation technique.
