Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022
J.B. Willows Working Men's Cottages
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
During 2022, our focus remained very similar to that of previous years, namely keeping our tenants and buildings safe.
We continued our approach of safe access to properties to carry out reactive works as well as a limited amount of planned and preventative maintenance. Alongside this, two significant pieces of work were carried out including our largest individual property refurbishment to date. This work, carried out with local contractor Hobson & Porter, sets the standard for the works going forward and in particular the investment we make into void properties before they are let to the next deserving tenant. The turnover of tenants remains low.
Our relationship with property agents Lime Properties continued to work well. Their network of trades provides trusted and vetted tradespeople and allows us to benchmark and compare costs for the larger pieces of work. Our on-site caretaker plays a key role in this process, logging jobs and meeting contractors which takes the worry away from our tenants, many of who are in their 70s, 80s and beyond with our eldest still thriving independently beyond 100 years of age.
Looking forward to 2023, our focus will be on developing an estates strategy with an emphasis on increasing the rental income of properties whilst supporting our tenants and ensuring they are not adversely affected by this. Due to rising repair and maintenance costs, this will be necessary to allow us to maintain the high standards of accommodation without compromise.
J B Willows Working Men's Cottages sits within the HEY Smile Foundation Resources Committee which brings together four Trustees with the support of the Smile CEO and Head of Department. Reports from this committee are forwarded to the agenda of the HEY Smile Foundation Trustee board each quarter.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Objectives and aims It is the current intention of J B Willows to in the next 12 months;
-
Ensure the properties remain in good order
-
That new lettings continue to ensure the properties fulfil a charitable objective while returning sufficient income to stay sustainable
-
To continue to provide an onsite link to the Trustee via an onsite caretaker residing in one of the homes
-
To ensure we have an annual maintenance schedule and budget and are accessing funding to make the properties more energy efficient
-
To develop a three-year strategic plan for JB Willows 2023/2026
-
To enhance communication with the tenants, linking them in to wider HEY Smile projects to support their health and wellbeing.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Organisational structure
Due to the value of works to properties in 2022, the reserves account previously held was closed to allow the charity's reserves to be invested into property improvements. This has reaped rewards in the property valuation carried out in late 2022 however this means there is no current reserves policy in place.
We currently hold funds for JB Willows in one the rental account which provided the monthly operational costs and received in the rental income from our properties. This is reviewed bi-monthly by the JB Willows committee and quarterly by the HEY Smile Foundation trustees.

for the year ended 31 December 2022
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Decision making
All maintenance requests are directed via the onsite caretaker and if works are more than remedial and or above £500, three quotes are requested in partnership with the current property agency. In the last financial year, all requests for maintenance were fulfilled, and a longer-term plan is being reviewed regarding planned and preventative maintenance to each property.
We have also registered with TPAS, and all annual safety checks and legislative requirements are managed through our current property agency.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of J.B. Willows Working Men's Cottages
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of J.B. Willows Working Men's Cottages (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022.
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').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all 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:
-
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; or
-
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 any 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.
