Pallottine Missionary Sisters

Trustees Report

For the year ended 31[st] March 2025

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing the accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), (effective 1 January 2019).

Structure, Governance & Management

The trust is an unincorporated trust, constituted under a trust deed dated 9[th] March 1964 as varied by scheme of 15[th] July 1987 and 2[nd] August 1996. The Pallottine Missionary Sisters are members of a religious Congregation, founded in Rome in 1838. A foundation was made in Germany in 1895 and in England in 1909. The accounts accompanying this report are the accounts of the charitable trust on which the assets of the congregation in England are held. The Trustees meet approximately three-monthly. We review the needs of those whom we serve, performance and service delivery, financial and risk management at our Elderly Care Home. We review reserves, property maintenance and the development of our property. We are familiar with the work in the services of the trust, through our apostolates, financial awareness, and attendance at trustee meetings. Trustees are encouraged to attend training to update their knowledge and responsibilities. The day to day running of the home is delegated to the manager and the Chief Executive Officer.

Mission and Purpose

Our mission is an all-embracing apostolate. Our aim is to respond to the needs of the time. Our main mission in the UK is meeting the needs of the elderly in our Residential Care Home. Our mission in Tanzania involves primary health care in the community, and primary and secondary education for young women.

Our charism is ‘universal’. It excludes no one and includes every work for the relief of poverty, for education and for the good of all. Our methods are adaptable to the needs of the time. We uphold human dignity at every stage of life. This is acknowledged by our care of the elderly, chaplaincy in a Mental Health Hospital, home and hospital visiting in Macclesfield and the good standard of education and health care offered to students, adults, and those impacted by HIV/AIDS in Tanzania

Public Benefit

The purpose and practice above reduce loneliness and isolation of the elderly, at home and in hospital in Macclesfield and in our Elderly Care Home in Macclesfield, by enabling elderly persons to maintain their independence and access good care when their capacity for self-care is limited.

Facilitates hundreds of children and young women in Tanzania to access education – the key to reducing poverty. Provides good health care in developing areas in Tanzania, thus reducing suffering, neglect and infantdeaths.

We confirm that we have had regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our mission, purpose and objectives and in carrying out the Trust’s activities. We have concluded that the Trust operates in compliance with these guidelines.

Key Management

The Trustees consider that they, together with the Chief Executive Officer and the managers of the Home, comprise the key management of the Charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Charity on a day-to-day basis. The Trustees received no remuneration. The Chief Executive Officer and managers of the Home have their remuneration reviewed by the Trustees on an annual basis.

Some words of thanks from the residents and families.

“I don't think anyone can completely understand how difficult it is to place a parent into respite care. The guilt is enormous but after ten months of trying our best with dad who was struggling following the death of our mum, we could no longer cope. We reached out to the manager at Park Mount and she stepped in to help us immediately.”

“We were so very anxious leaving him, but the staff have taken excellent care of him. Things have not always been easy and my dad's behaviour was challenging at first but the care given has been amazing and we will be forever grateful.”

“We are still waiting for a diagnosis for dad which is difficult but we receive regular updates on his health and any changes which is very reassuring.” “We are delighted with the care and support given to our dad and also the kindness shown to us. We could not have asked for him to be in a better place and know he is receiving the best possible care. 100% would recommend. Thank you to all the staff at Park Mount you are amazing!”

“Our mum is in respite care at Park Mount Care Home. It's been a big adjustment for mum and a huge change but the wonderful team at Park Mount have made her feel welcomed, cared for and safe. I honestly could not have wished for a nicer place for mum. Mum is settling down and joining in all the activities which are fun and entertaining. The huge, well-kept gardens are wonderful to explore, we feel so fortunate to have this outside space. The food is excellent and there is an endless supply of drinks, I'd rather like to move in myself! This is a top team that run a very happy ship, hats off to you all, for all care, love and happy moments you aspire to give every day. We are truly grateful.”

“My parents were at Park Mount Care Home for respite care as my father had been in hospital and my mother required some much-needed recuperation and rest.”

THE BACKGROUND OF TANZANIA

The Pallottine Missionary Sisters have been supporting a mission in Africa since June 1990 when three Sisters left England and opened a community in the Singida Diocese in the centre of Tanzania. In 1992 they were given 10 acres of land in Siuyu, a small village about 20km from Singida town for the purpose of building a Secondary School for Girls and a Convent for the Sisters.

From the beginning the Sisters have been involved mainly in Education and Health Care which are the keys to development and reducing real poverty and deprivation. They have also committed themselves to Formation Work - the training of young women to become Pallottine Sisters, so that the services they are providing can continue and be of benefit to the people they serve now and in the future.

Activities currently undertaken are:

Sisters work in the running of our institutions and others are preparing to go on for further studies.

The education of the sisters is one of the main concerns for the Trustees. The Sisters need to be professionally trained, so that they will be equipped to provide a high standard of service to the many people who depend on them, especially the poor in Tanzania. We continue to support the sisters in Tanzania in their efforts to provide professional training for their young Sisters.

Education: Through Education to Development

Pallotti Secondary School for Girls in Siuyu, Singida was opened in 1995 with one class of 45 students. In the year 2000 it began to receive students for Advanced Level Education in the Arts subjects - History, Geography, English and Swahili. In July 2013 it began to offer Science subjects: Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Basic Mathematics. In 2010, Pallotti School developed into a Two Form Entry School with a capacity for about 480 girls from Form One to Form Six.

The school is completely dependent on School Fees, Sponsorships and Donations. It is not government funded. With the help of generous donors, we were able to give full or half free places to 96 students, who come from deprived families mainly in the rural areas, of these many came from the Singida Region which is classified as semi-desert.

Some of the Key Achievements for 2024/2025

EDUCATION

The students at Pallotti Secondary School in Siuyu village in Singida are happy young people who are fully occupied by their studies, sports, religious activities, and recreation. They continue to study hard and perform well academically. In the recent Government examinations over 90% had Division One or Two. They know that there is much competition in the world, and that they need to have good results to qualify for further studies. This year there are 510 students with 28 teachers and 24 non-teaching staff.

We sincerely thank our teachers and students for their dedication and hard work. The staff at the school are all Tanzanians. Ten Tanzanian Pallottine Sisters are working at Pallotti Secondary School teaching and doing the work of administration. The school is making a significant contribution to the development of the Region in general, and especially to the status and dignity of women.

Since 2015 we have accepted students with special needs from Siuyu to study at Pallotti. They come to the school in their wheelchairs every morning and return to the Centre in the evening. We are happy to be able to help these children with special needs to get a good education.

Development at Pallotti.

As the number of students increased the Examination Hall became too small so an Extension was built to double the capacity. Also, maintenance was carried out on various buildings. Many of these were built over twenty years ago and had little maintenance over the years. With the assistance of some Former Students the Laboratories are being renovated.

To enhance the environment, in the immediate area of the school part of the site has been landscaped and figures of wild birds and animals have been set up as well as a small model of Mount Kilimanjaro. The administration has planted more fruit trees and installed a drip-feed for watering the vegetables. They have also made charcoal on site using up the old trees and branches.

St. Leo’s English Medium Primary School

In January 2013 four Sisters from the Siuyu community moved to Igunga. Now there are seven Sisters in the Igunga community. In St. Leo’s English Medium Primary School, the Sisters are doing the administration work as well as teaching. The school is owned by the Diocese of Tabora. With funds from donors and a little from the congregation, the Sisters managed to build a Convent on the site. This year with funds from donors in Belgium the Sisters built two Classrooms, an Office, Store and toilets for the Kindergarten.

Presently there are 578 pupils at St Leo’s – all between the ages of 4 and 13 years.

Elisabetta Sanna Pre and Primary English Medium School

In February 2017, two Sisters from the Siuyu Community in Singida went to Magogo in the Morogoro Region, in response to an Invitation by the Parish Priest of Dakawa Parish, to begin working at a small non-registered Primary School in the bush among the Maasai. Most of the local people are very poor and because of the culture, life is particularly difficult for the women and girls. Many children do not go to school, even though the law in Tanzania states that all children must have at least primary education. The children are often sent to pasture the animals.

The Convent for the Sisters was officially opened and blessed on November 21, 2019 by the Apostolic Administrator of Tanzania.

Achievements:

Elisabetta Sanna School started in 2018 with 25 pupils, it now has 222 between Kindergarten and Grade Four. In the new school Dormitory, 93 are boarding.

At this mission in Magogo, we are facing many challenges :

HEALTH CARE

St. Joseph’s Dispensary Siuyu

St. Joseph’s was registered in 2008. It is situated on the site of Pallotti Secondary School. It offers Primary Health Care to the local villages, Pallotti Secondary School, and the Convent community. In former years this service was essential, and well used. Recently a new Mission Hospital was built in Makiungu, 10 km away, and services and medication are offered at a reduced price. Consequently, apart from the Convent and School communities few patients go there now.

Makiungu Hospital

Three Pallottine Sisters are in full time employment at Makiungu Hospital in Singida. For more than 50 years the hospital was a Mission Hospital run by the Medical Missionaries of Mary, but it is now a District Hospital. Here the Sisters – two Registered Nurses and an Assistant Medical Officer, care for the sick and are learning many skills through working in this large institution. It is a source of income for the mission.

In Arusha at the Leadership Centre, the Pallottine Sisters are supporting the Azizi group of persons living with AIDS. They also pay school fees for some orphans or for children from families impacted by HIV/AIDS.

Rehabilitation Centre Siuyu

Sr Rosemary Ombay, the Assistant Manager, who is a Nurse and Occupational Therapist works full time at the Rehabilitation Centre in Siuyu where 43 children live and are cared for with love and commitment. One Sister who is untrained, supports Sr Rosemary and helps care for the children, while other Sisters are involved in the Centre occasionally as volunteers. Sr Rosemary is the only Sister who receives a salary. Among the 43 children, 18 are mentally challenged, 15 are both mentally and physically challenged and 10 are only physically challenged. These 10 attend the local Primary School and study in normal classes, the rest who are mentally challenged attend Special Needs classes. We thank the Union members who are volunteers and so committed in caring for these special children.

The Centre provides another very important service. Many children with disabilities who are not residents are brought by their parents or guardians to receive therapy at the Centre, and the Carers are given training on how best to care for their children at home.

Zambia

Pallottine Mission in Westwood outside Lusaka was officially opened on 5th February 2018 and currently two Sisters are teaching in a St Vincent Secondary School run by Pallottine from India.

FORMATION WORK

The Initial Training of young women to become Pallottine Sisters is undertaken in the Siuyu community, and the Noviciate is in the Formation House in Poli Singisi, Arusha. In the year 2000 the Trustees decided to open a Formation House in Arusha, so that the young Sisters could avail of the many opportunities for study found in the area. The Formation House was opened as an International Noviciate in September 2017 and now provides formation for young women from Rwanda, Congo, Uganda and Tanzania. Presently sixteen Novices are in the Formation House, ten of whom are Tanzanians.

Since 1990 over sixty young Tanzanian women have joined the congregation. Over forty of these have some professional training and twelve others are following courses in further education. We also have thirty young women at various stages in our Initial Formation Programmes in Siuyu. We trust that this will ensure the sustainability of the mission in the future.

We strongly believe that Education is the Key to Development. Education - and especially the education of girls is vital to combat poverty and sickness and to promote development especially in the rural semi-desert areas of the Singida Region and among the Maasai in Morogoro.

Conclusion:

As well as the educational and health benefits, the mission in Tanzania is providing employment for many in the schools and Health Centres and through the provision of foodstuff to the growing number of students at Pallotti Secondary School, St Leo’s Primary School and our new Elisabetta Sanna Pre/Primary School in Magogo, Morogoro. Our mission has brought much needed hope and development to the areas.

Recruitment and Training of Trustees

Trustees are nominated by the English Provincial of the Pallottine Missionary Sisters in accordance with the Deed of Trust. On appointment, new trustees are introduced to the workings of the charity and are kept updated of their responsibilities and the Charity’s position.

Risk Management

The trustees confirm that they have identified and considered the major risks to which the Trust is exposed, the potential impact of individual risk should they materialise and, what mitigating actions are taken or need to be taken, in order to reduce each risk to a level which the trustees consider to be acceptable.

Volunteers

A number of people serve as volunteers to the Charity who assist in resident activities, drive vehicles and assist in the kitchen. Due to the Pandemic these activities ceased for some time but now carry on as in former times but the necessary precautions advised by Cheshire East are strictly adhered to.

Investment Policy

The charity’s investments are managed by W H Ireland.

The trustees’ investment powers are set out in the charity’s trust deed. The investment strategy is set by the trustees and takes into account income requirements, the risk profile and the investment managers’ views of the market prospects in the medium term.

The policy is to maximise total return through a diversified portfolio whilst providing a level of income advised by the trustees from time to time. There is also an ethical policy precluding investment in any company which, after reasonable enquiry, clearly has significant profits from activities such as armaments.

The performance of the portfolio and the charity’s investment strategy are reviewed by the trustees and their representatives who meet the investment managers at least twice a year. The overall portfolios’ performances are monitored against quarterly returns and against a selection of appropriate indices.

Trustees Report

For the year ended 31[st] March 2025

Financial Review

A summary of the year’s results can be found on page 21 of this report and accounts.

Total income resources amounted to £2,963,166 (2024: £2,508,217). The prime source of income for the charity is the fees from the home which totalled £2,777,712 (2024: £2,358,712).

£130,846 (2024: £109,942) was received from donations, which included £119,297 (2024: £99,014) received from the sisters’ salaries and pensions.

Investment income amounted to £51,348 (2024: £39,563).

Resources expended amounted to £3,221,360 (2024: £1,268,218). Excluding the gain of the disposal of the London property, expenditure in the prior year was £2,815,921. The majority of this increase on prior year can be attributed to an increase in staff costs. A full analysis of costs is included in note 7 of the accounts.

Net expenditure for the year before gains on investments was £258,194 (2024: £1,239,999 net income). Net investment gains of £8,248 (2024: Gains £116,496) resulted in a decrease of funds for the year of £249,946 (2024: Increase £1,356,495).

Investment performance

The total value of listed investments at 31[st] March 2025 was £1,450,759 (2024: £1,668,795). This represents a 13% decrease on the previous year. The charity made withdrawals of £245,000 from its investments in the year.

During the year, the charity’s income from listed investments was £51,348 (2024: £39,563) and gains on disposal and revaluation of investments were £8,248 (2024: Gain £116,496).

When fully invested, the Charity’s aim is to achieve an income yield of 3%. An analysis of the Charity’s investments can be found in note 14 of the accounts.

The Trustees continue to take a long-term view and believe their investment policy continues to be applied and remains appropriate.

Reserves policy

The Trustees have examined the need for free reserves i.e, those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The Trustees consider that the level of free reserves for operational existence should be equal to six months expenditure.

The balance sheet shows total reserves of £5.1 million. Of this, £3.1 million is represented by designated funds. These designated funds are analysed in note 17 of the accounts.

Charitable Donations

The Trust made charitable donations of £1,844 (2024: £11,356) in the year.

Consultation and Engagement

The Trust employs a range of mechanisms for consulting and engaging with its staff, volunteers, beneficiaries and other stakeholders.

Their input is used to help formulate the Trusts’ mission, develop operational policies and shape the way the Trusts’ services are delivered on the ground.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of

Pallottine Missionary Sisters

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Pallottine Missionary Sisters (the 'charity') for the year ended 31st March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flow and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, in the circumstances set out in note 24 to the financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:



Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of

Pallottine Missionary Sisters

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

As part of designing our audit work, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, including how fraud may occur by enquiring of management of its own consideration of fraud.

In particular, we looked at where management made subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain.

We also considered potential financial or other pressures, opportunity and motivation for fraud. As part of this discussion we identified the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and how management monitor these processes. Appropriate procedures included the review and testing of manual journals and key estimates and judgements made by management.

We made enquiries of management with regards to compliance with applicable laws and regulations and corroborated any necessary evidence to relevant information, for example, minutes of the trustees' meetings.

We addressed the risk of management override of internal controls including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by management that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentation or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102 effective 1[st] January 2019). The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Charities Act 2011.

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.

The charity constitutes a public benefit as defined by FRS102.

The accounts are presented in sterling and are rounded to the nearest pound.

Going concern

The trustees consider there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The review of the financial position, reserves level and future plans give trustees confidence the charity remains a going concern for the foreseeable future.

Funds structure

Unrestricted funds represent those monies which are freely available for application towards achieving any charitable purpose that falls within the charitable objects.

The tangible fixed asset fund comprises the net book value of the charity’s land and buildings and fixture and fittings. The existence of which is fundamental to the charity being able to perform its charitable work and thereby achieve its charitable objectives. The value represented by such assets should not be regarded therefore as realisable.

Designated funds comprise monies set aside out of unrestricted funds for specific future purpose or projects.

Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes laid down by the donor. Expenditure for those purposes is charged to the fund.

Income recognition

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is certain the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Income comprises fees from private individuals and local authorities, donations and investment income.

Donations, including salaries and pensions received from the sisters, are recognised when the charity has confirmation of both the amount and settlement date.

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

In accordance with the Charities SORP FRS102, volunteers’ time is not recognised.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognised when the grant has been received.

Financial instruments

The charity only holds financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instrument are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

For the year ended 31[st] March 2025

1. Accounting policies (continued)

Expenditure recognition

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. The classification between activities is as follows:

Expenditure on raising funds comprises investment managers’ fees.

Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs associated with furthering the charitable purposes of the charity through the provision of its charitable activities. Such costs include donations and costs in respect of the support of members of the Congregation and enabling their ministry, including governance costs.

All expenditure is stated inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Allocation of support and governance costs

Support costs represent indirect charitable expenditure. In order to carry out the primary purposes of the charity it is necessary to provide the support in the form of personal development, financial procedures, provision of office services and equipment and a suitable working environment.

Governance costs comprise the costs involving the public accountability of the charity (including audit costs) and costs in respect of its compliance with regulation and good practice.

All expenditure in support and governance is attributable directly to the charitable activity of supporting members of the Congregation and enabling their ministry and hence there has been no apportionment between headings.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost, net of depreciation. As permitted by FRS102, the value assigned to the properties that were revalued is now deemed their cost.

All assets costing more than £5,000 and with an expected useful life exceeding one year are capitalised. Depreciation is charged from the year of acquisition as follows:

Freehold buildings 50 years Plant and machinery 5% on cost Furniture and equipment 3 to 10 years Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance basis

Fixed asset investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price.

Realised gains (or losses) on investment assets are calculated at the difference between disposal proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value at that date. Realised and unrealised investment gains (or losses) are combined in the statement of financial activities and are credited (or debited) in the year in which they arise.

1. Accounting policies (continued)

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount, less any provision for non-recoverability. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity date of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Foreign currencies

Foreign currency balances are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in the SOFA against expenditure for the financial year in which they are incurred.

Services provided by members of the Congregation

For the purpose of these accounts, no value has been placed on the administrative and other services provided by members of the Congregation.

Operating leases

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the income and expenditure account on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension scheme

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for the benefit of its employees. The assets of the scheme are held independently from those of the charity in an independent administered fund. The pension costs charged in the financial statements represent the contribution payable during the year.

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement

Preparation of the accounts require the trustees to make significant judgements and estimates. The items in the accounts where these judgements and estimates have been made include:

It is likely that there are material differences between the open market values of the charity’s UK freehold land and buildings and their book values. The amount of such differences cannot be ascertained without incurring significant costs which, in the opinion of the trustees, is not justified in terms of the benefit to the users of the accounts.

17. Funds

Tangible fixed assets fund

The tangible fixed asset fund represents the net book value of the charity land and buildings and fixture and fittings. A decision was made to separate this fund from the unrestricted fund and other designated funds of the charity in recognition of the fact that the tangible fixed assets are essential to the day-today work of the charity and as such, their value should not be regarded as funds that would be realisable with ease, in order to meet future contingencies. Transfers represent the net movements in fixed assets during the year.

Tanzania funds (Restricted)

The Tanzania fund represents fund accumulation in order to support the Pallottine Sister’s work in Tanzania. Transfers represent movement in funds paid out of unrestricted funds during the year.
