## **JOHN A THOMPSON MEMORIAL TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022**_ 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the trust's Articles and Memorandum of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **Charitable object** 

The Trust's objects are to provide living accommodation for aged poor or needful persons with power for that purpose to provide services and benefits at reduced charges, together with pecuniary and other assistance. 

## **Objectives and Aims of charity** 

The Trust's objectives are to provide living accommodation for the relief of poverty, need and financial hardship to the elderly by the provision of subsidised accommodation.  The Trust also offers assistance to the elderly by social interaction at its premises and through social events within the community. 

The trust runs a complex of adjoining properties which have been converted to flats available to rent at reduced charges by the old and impoverished. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the trust should undertake. The charity is a public benefit entity. 

## **Activities** 

The John A. Thompson Memorial Trust is a registered charitable company, owning five adjoining properties, in common grounds, in an attractive area of Southsea near Canoe Lake and the seashore. The Trust has been in Southsea since 1967, but its origins go back to 1932, to a mission founded by the Reverend John A. Thompson in Battersea. 

The Trust’s houses comprise 38 self-contained flats, providing 1- or 2-bedroom accommodation, as well as a communal sun-lounge, the Trust’s offices, and catering and laundry facilities. The flats are let as independent living tenancies, with a small number of assisted-living tenants receiving support from the staff with cleaning and catering. 

The Trust is saddened to report that Pamela Green, the Trust Manager, died on 25 April 2022 after several periods in hospital. She had been on sick leave since early December 2020, but never recovered sufficiently to return to work. Pamela had been with the Trust for 9 years. 

A Job Description for the Trust Manager’s post has been produced and circulated to several recruitment agencies, including some specializing in the charity sector. However, the Trustees are currently considering the temporary appointment of a business specialist, contracted for perhaps 1-2 days per week, who would work with the Trust’s accounts administrator to produce a detailed breakdown of the Trust’s current and future running costs, initially to determine the rents that the Trust should be charging, and in the light of that to identify the action that should be taken. 

Dr. Tony Kenyon resigned as a Trustee, for family reasons, with effect from 31 December 2022 after a long period of service. He left with the grateful thanks and best wishes from all at the Trust. 

Mrs. Diane Pearsall has been appointed as the new treasurer.

## **JOHN A THOMPSON MEMORIAL TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022**_ 

The Trust owns the properties in Southsea at Nos. 24, 26 and 28 Festing Road, 9 Craneswater Park, and 11 Craneswater Park. Repair and refurbishment work has been carried out at all the properties, except for No. 28. A number of problems have been remedied at No. 11 Craneswater, mainly related to damp, with the aim of making more of the accommodation suitable for letting. Further work is required to convert some of the unused rooms into self-contained flats, but this will have to await further funding. 

£50,000 was drawn down from investments at the beginning of 2022 partly to fund refurbishment and repair work and partly to settle an HMRC bill. 

The Office now maintains a ‘Traffic Light’ list, which assigns property maintenance, refurbishment and repair needs to Red, Amber, or Green categories according to priority. Having addressed the most urgent upkeep issues, the priority for the immediate future is to address safety-related matters, such as responding to recent updates in the fire regulations. 

## In addition: 

• A website has been launched with the aims of making the Trust more widely known and supporting fund-raising efforts. 

• The garage adjacent to 9 Craneswater Park has been adapted to house and charge a pair of mobility scooters acquired by tenants, and its access path widened. 

• A donation of £10,000 has been received from the DM Memorial Charity Trust. The Trustees agreed that the donation should be used for specific projects that would acknowledge the donation in perpetuity. Accordingly, it has been used to widen and upgrade the path across the central lawn, to make it suitable for wheelchairs, and to fund the installation of a new stair lift in No. 24. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **Financial review** 

Rental income for the year has increased as planned when compared to 2021. There was a net incoming movement of funds for the year of £9,059 (2021 - £106,809 outgoing movement). This includes an unrealised loss on listed investments of £7,469 (2021 - £3,426 unrealised profit). 

There were total unrestricted funds, including designated funds, brought forward of £1,437,639. At 31 December 2022 there were equivalent funds of £1,446.698 carried forward of which £67,170 (2021 - £58,981) were free unrestricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the trust that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level at least equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the trust’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has not been maintained throughout the year. 

The trustees recognise that this position needs to be addressed and are working on a business plan to ensure that the reserves are restored as quickly as possible. 

## **Investments** 

The Articles and Memorandum of association grant the trustees wide powers of investment. Investments are held to generate both income and capital growth. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees actively review the major risks faced by the trust on a regular basis. They believe that the financial risk can be managed by an annual budgetary review and maintaining reserves at current levels. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks faced by the charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate risks.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF JOHN A THOMPSON MEMORIAL TRUST** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of John A Thompson Memorial Trust (the trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the trust (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the trust are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination,  I report in respect of my examination of the trust’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the trust’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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 financial statements to be reached.

**JOHN A THOMPSON MEMORIAL TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

John A Thompson Memorial Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 28 Festing Road, Southsea, Portsmouth, Hampshire, PO4 0NQ. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the trust's Articles and Memorandum of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The trust is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The trust has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the trust. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

The trustees have considered the possible effects on the trust of the impact caused by Covid-19. Taking into account a period exceeding 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that rental income will remain consistent post lockdowns. 

Furthermore the trustees believe the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. 

For these reasons the company will continue to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of its Financial Statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **1.4 Incoming resources** 

Income is recognised when the trust is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the trust has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the trust has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. 

**1.5 Resources expended** 

- 7 - 



## **JOHN A THOMPSON MEMORIAL TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Irrecoverable Vat is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Land and buildings Nil Plant and machinery 20% of the reducing balance Fixtures, fittings & equipment 20% of the reducing balance 

Freehold land is not depreciated. 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. 

No depreciation has been provided on the freehold buildings as in the opinion of the trustees the lives of the buildings are of such length and the residual values so high that any depreciation would be immaterial. 

## **1.7 Fixed asset investments** 

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date.  Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. 

## **1.8 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the trust reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 

## **1.9 Stocks** 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. 

## **1.10 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.11 Financial instruments** 

The trust has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the trust's balance sheet when the trust becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

## **1.12 Employee benefits**

## **19 Government grants** 

Government grants, including amounts received under the CJRS, are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met and the grants will be received. 

A grant that specifies performance conditions is recognised in income when the performance conditions are met.  Where a grant does not specify performance conditions it is recognised in income when the proceeds are received or receivable. A grant received before the recognition criteria are satisfied is recognised as a liability.
