THE ABBEYFIELD BARNARD CASTLE SOCIETY LIMITED
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the 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) " (effective 1 January 2019 ).
Objectives and activities
The objective of the charity is to provide housing in Barnard Castle in accordance with the aims and principles of the Abbeyfield Society Limited to whom it is affiliated. Abbeyfield House was purchased in 1968. This property was extended in 1973 when the former surgery at the rear of the premises was acquired. It has been a priority to upgrade the house to provide high quality accommodation which meets the aspirations of the residents.
The trustees have had due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit. We feel that we achieve public benefit by the provision of high quality accommodation for the elderly, which allows them to live in comfort and with dignity.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Achievements and performance
Abbeyfield Barnard Castle in common with other sheltered housing providers has been impacted by the extended periods of lockdown experienced throughout 2021 and early 2022. During the year we consistently had three vacant rooms, and extensive promotion did not have an impact. Over the period one new resident took up a tenancy and one moved on. The net result was that the occupancy level was 70%. We have observed that older people continued to be reluctant to move due to concerns about Covid. Trustees and managers continue to focus on this issue and utilise The Abbeyfield Society and our own online marketing to promote our offer and vacancies.
The bungalows have remained at full occupancy throughout the period and have contributed to the positive financial outturn at the end of the year.
The installation of two new stairlifts and the upgrade of the staircase and hall concluded the final phase of major improvements to Abbeyfield House.
The society generally has low staff turnover and 2021/22 has been no exception. The only significant change was turnover of one housekeeping role, with the appointment of a permanent housekeeper in February 2022. Staff costs are significant at 60% of Abbeyfield House expenditure.
We continue to receive support through The Abbeyfield Society Connect portal and in 2021 the Connect online training hub. This has enabled staff and trustees to access a range of courses at modest cost. Staff have been able to complete mandatory courses online and fit them around their work schedules.
The welfare of our residents and staff is always a priority. Staff have supported residents in the transition through the different stages of lockdown experienced over the year. Communal dining was resumed followed by visits of relatives and friends. Although we have had some cases of Covid among staff, our protocols have ensured that there has been no detriment to service delivery and no cases of Covid among residents. Residents and their families have expressed that they feel safe and secure and that their welfare comes first.

THE ABBEYFIELD BARNARD CASTLE SOCIETY LIMITED
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The prolonged periods of lockdown have had an impact on some residents in that they became reluctant to venture beyond Abbeyfield House. Staff have supported residents to overcome their concerns and assisted individuals to return to old patterns of living at their own pace.
At certain times volunteers have not been able to visit the house and this was not the time to recruit new volunteers. One volunteer has assisted us to the mark the changing of the seasons with flower and Christmas arrangements, and visits to individual residents from early 2022. This has been appreciated by staff and residents alike.
Our priorities remain the promotion of the society, the allocation of vacant rooms, and the recruitment of new trustees and volunteers.
Financial review
Full accounts are attached to this report. As detailed in the Statement of Financial Activities, the surplus for the year amounted to £ 95,435 (202 1: £20,196) , however £79,649 of this relates to the revaluation of the three bungalows, which are classed as investment properties.
No r estricted funds were received during the year . The balance of r estricted funds held remains at £5,525 , which is to be used towards the creation of a sensory garden for the enjoyment of our residents.
Unrestricted funds are needed:
a) to cover administration and support costs without which the charity could not function and; b) to provide funds which can be designated to specific projects to enable these projects to be undertaken at short notice.
Free reserves are unrestricted funds not held as functional fixed assets. The Society aims to keep free reserves of at least six months' running costs, which equate to roughly £72,000. This would cover any gaps in occupancy or unforeseen costs, should any of the properties require urgent repair work. The charity had free reserves of £104,469 at 31st March 202 2 (2021: £94,731 ) . Surplus funds will be used to further improve the facilities for our residents.
Plans for future periods
a) to continue to provide housing in Barnard Castle in accordance with the aims and principles of the Abbeyfield Society Ltd.
b) to work towards full occupancy.
c) to continue improvements to Abbeyfield House to ensure that it meets the current and future needs of our residents.
d) to effectively invest and utilise our remaining funds to extend our provision for older people in Barnard Castle.
e) to create a sensory garden for our residents to enjoy.
Structure, governance and management
The Company was incorporated on 16th May 1967 for the provision and management of housing, accommodation or assistance, including providing and maintaining or assisting in providing and maintaining houses and homes, for the relief and care of elderly persons suffering from the disabilities of old age or otherwise being in need. It is a Company Limited by Guarantee and not having a share capital as set out in the Companies Act 2006.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Abbeyfield Barnard Castle Society Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Abbeyfield House, Galgate, Barnard Castle, Co Durham, DL12 8BL.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity . Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include investment properties at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
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 Income
Income is recognised when the charity 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 charity 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 charity 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 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
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:
Freehold land and buildings Not depreciated Fixtures, fittings & equipment 15% reducing balance Office furniture & equipment 40% reducing balance
Freehold properties are not depreciated as their residual values are not considered to be less than cost.
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 .
1.7 Investment properties
Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. The surplus or deficit on revaluation is recognised in profit or loss.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity 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 Financial instruments
The charity 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 charity 's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
1.10 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

(Continued)
The fair value of investment property has been arrived at by applying the Nationwide House Price Index [Percentage movement in value] to the value on the date of acquisition up to the reporting date . The trustees also made reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.
The valuation has been calculated by the trustees, and not by an independent valuer.
If investment properties were stated on an historical cost basis rather than a fair value basis, the amounts would have been included as follows:
