ANNUAL REPORT
Year Ended 31 March 2021
Structure, Governance and Management
The Charity was created by deed on 21 March 1962 which was amended by a deed dated 8 September 1972. The accounts are prepared on a receipts and payments basis and in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.
The Trustees who served during the year are as shown on page 2. The Trustee Body comprises five competent persons including one Ex-Officio Trustee who is the Rector of Hartley Wintney with Elvetham; one Nominative Trustee nominated by the Parish Council (appointed for a term of 4 Years); three Co-opted Trustees who through residence, occupation, employment or otherwise have special knowledge of the Parish of Hartley Wintney with Elvetham. The Trustees collectively propose and agree suitable nominations for the Co-opted and Nominative Trustees.
Objectives and Activities
The main object of the Charity is to provide almshouses for those in need in the local parish. The trustees, having regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission in accordance with section 17 of the Charites Act 2011, consider that the purpose and activities of the Charity satisfy the requirements of the public benefit test set out in section 4 of the same Act.
Achievements and Performance
During the year the Charity supplied accommodation for 9 people (2019 - 9 people) taking a weekly contribution towards cost of maintaining the homes and essential services therein, so that the amount of the weekly sum shall not cause hardship to him or her.
The charity receives full market rent for the house previously used by the former Scheme Manager.
Financial Review
Income Account
The surplus prior to appropriations, in respect of Calthorpe Houses, together with investment income and deposit interest is dealt with in this account.
Cyclical Maintenance Fund
For many years the trustees have, by way of appropriation, set aside cash to this fund for "ordinary repairs", designed to spread the impact of periodic redecoration etc, and to avoid fluctuations in the Income Account. In the year ended 31 March 2021, the amount transferred was £18,138 (2020 - £10,562).
Extraordinary Repair Fund
This is maintained for the "extraordinary repair, improvement or rebuilding of the homes or former scheme manager's house".
Not less than £1,890 per year is required to be transferred to this Fund out of income (clause 25 of the Scheme of 1972, as subsequently amended) by way of appropriation. In the year ended 31 March 2021, the amount transferred was £6,325 (2020 - £8,323).
Historically, a greater proportion of the charity's income has been transferred to the Cyclical Maintenance Fund on an annual basis despite the Extraordinary Repair Fund consistently incurring the greater costs. Periodically, the Cyclical Maintenance Fund makes appropriations to address this. No appropriation was made during the year (2020 - £Nil).
During the year to 31 March 2016 the Income Account made an inter-fund loan of £5,760 to the Extraordinary Repair Fund, this remains outstanding as at the date of this report.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
Year Ended 31 March 2021
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ELVETHAM CHARITIES
I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2020 which are set out on pages 6 to 11.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). You are satisfied that an audit is not required for this year under charity law and that an independent examination is needed.
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner's statement.
Independent examiner's statement
I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no 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.
