TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the Charitable Company for the year 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024. The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the Charitable Company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Since the Charitable Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.

Our key business approaches in 2022/23 to 2023/24 have been:

We have continued to safely protect the Individuals we support and care for, improving our ratings with CQC.

As an organisation we have been impacted by the shortage of Social Care staff and restrictions on funding from local government. We continue to work in line with all government guidance in place for the Health and Social care sector. It is the responsibility of the senior leadership team to direct and deliver the response required in line with recommended guidance and to ensure that the risks for each service are managed effectively to mitigate any ongoing impact from Covid. Each service has a Risk Assessment in place giving details of the responses required in the event of Covid being contracted.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Objectives and activities

a. Objectives and activities

Jubilee House Care Trust provides quality care and support to those with disabilities (including learning disabilities), to enhance their quality of life and to empower them to live as independently as possible. Our ambition is that adults and children with learning disabilities should lead happy and fulfilled lives, whilst our strategy for achieving this is to provide quality support and care by understanding the needs of the individuals and their families.

We are based across Hertfordshire, but our Individuals come from within Hertfordshire as well as the surrounding counties and several London boroughs.

We offer a range of services for children and adults with learning disabilities ranging from residential care and supported living to short breaks and outreach services (the provision of activities in the community).

In everything that we do we aim to demonstrate our key values: a culture that is open and honest; a supportive and caring environment for both Individuals and staff; and an expectation of continual improvement.

Residential Services

We have two residential services, Jonquil Close and Lincoln Close, which each provide support for six adults who live with Jubilee House on a permanent basis. Since April 2020 Lincoln Close has only supported five residents. Notice was given to HCC in February 2024 after we were unable to agree a suitable financial package to reduce the financial losses. These two residential services cater for differing levels of need, which frequently involve physical, as well as learning, disabilities.

Jonquil Close caters for six individuals who have profound learning disabilities, and they are supported to access the community in a group or individual basis. Individuals are supported and encouraged to maximise their full potential in all aspects of their daily living.

In Lincoln Close, individuals are more independent and we provide support with daily tasks such as cooking and cleaning, but they are encouraged to do as much as possible for themselves.

Supported Living

For the majority of the year, we operated a small, supported living schemes in Stevenage. One in Lincoln Close supported two more independent individuals living in a shared house. Support here is tailored around each person’s specific requirements and can range from help with daily tasks such as paying bills and managing money, to meeting people and making new friends.

The second service provides accommodation for a single Individual with a higher level of need. We commenced providing support in December 2019 on an outreach basis and the Individual moved into the property in January 2020.

Short Breaks Services

The three short break centres continued to run throughout the year with some team changes in the Senior Management layer. The Pines and Peartree Short Breaks Centre cater for children between the ages of 5 and 18, while Meadows Short Breaks Centre caters for adults between the ages of 18 and 65. We now have a total of 15 beds across the three services and have been able to extend the level of support offered within Hertfordshire.

Page 4

THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (A Company Limited by Guarantee)

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Objectives and activities (continued)

All three services can provide a variety of short breaks ranging from tea visits of a few hours to longer stays of several days or more. While our contract with Hertfordshire County Council utilises the bulk of the placements, we are always able to also provide services to individuals from other areas or to those with personal budgets in Peartree and Meadows. All our centres are well-equipped to deal with physical and learning disabilities, with hoists and specialist bathroom equipment available if required. Activities at all three services are predominantly centre based, with a wide range of activities tailored to the individual interests, ability and ages of the participants, but all services also utilise our wheelchair-friendly transport services to get out and about in the community as much as possible. All services retained a ‘Good’ rating from Ofsted and the team continued their work to improve the ratings and maintain compliance.

b. Volunteers and Grant Income

This year the higher Cost-of-Living issue has impacted on volunteering, fundraising and Grants locally and nationally. Recruitment and retention of volunteers has continued to be extremely challenging as the need to seek paid employment to cover rising living costs has reduced the spare time people have for volunteering. Community fundraising has been significantly affected for all charities as income is squeezed which has led to charities relying on Grants and Trusts to help them plug the income gaps. Grant making bodies have reported a very significant rise in funding request applications which has meant that competition for grant awards is high.

c. Volunteers

This financial year the volunteers helped with fundraising, PR, supporting people and carrying out projects to improve our service provisions. A significant input was from local businesses and trusts.

d. Grant and Donations

Our Volunteer and Grant Coordinator generated six successful grant applications were submitted to the value of £19,202. Also, we received £1,115 worth of charitable activity and various donations.

e. Public Benefit

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission General Guidance on Public Benefit, when reviewing their aims and objectives and in planning future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

f. Commercial Activities

With the acute financial pressures facing the social care sector and Jubilee House, the Board of Trustees agreed that more time and effort should be focussed on generating unrestricted funds from associated commercial activities. The first of these is the creation of a Vinted online store to sell donated clothes and other items. This shop is expected to grow with time and as of the end of September 2024 78 items have been sold, grossing £965. Other activities are being reviewed and assessed for there suitability and ongoing development of new ideas will continue.

g. Savings Plan

The senior team produced a Savings Plan at the beginning of 2024 and have identified a possible £112,000 of savings associated with staff changes, reduction of supplier spend, investments, etc.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Achievements and performance

a. Achievements and performance

Throughout 2023/24 we have worked towards the following objectives:

Our primary focus has been to continue protecting the people we support and our team from external health challenges and procedural risks. We have successfully completed this and it remains our ongoing top priority.

Reduction of Loss Making Services

The review of the residential and supported living contracts with HCC to bring them back to a point where they each make a financial surplus was completed. We have had to make some tough decisions about our service at 21/22 Lincoln Close and gave notice to close the service in May 2024. This had a considerable impact on the people we supported there and their families whilst the transition was completed by Hertfordshire County Council. The service was losing on average £20k per month and was causing a significant pressure on the team due to the changing needs of the people living there.

Grow and diversify our revenue

Our revenues increased from £3,414,178 to £3,838,991, an increase of 12.4% on last year’s income. 7% was due to the additional income from annual inflationary uplift, leaving a net increase of only 5.4% for 2023/24 compared to 5.8% increase in 2022/23.

New Ofsted Setting

We started the process of registering 43 Lincoln Close as a new Ofsted service to allow children and young people between the ages of 5 and 18 to use the building in a short breaks capacity. The funding for the service has come from the HCC and NHS budgets. We expect the service to be able to accommodate up to 2 children and young people, although we expect that it will be single occupancy most of the time.

Recruitment and Retention

The recruitment of new staff remained a major challenge for the charity as the volume of people wanting to work in Social Care reduced and competition from local commercial and other care providers increased. We agreed to split the salary increase for the Operations team and core Support functions, so the largest raise went to support staff and operational management. We were able to recruit 45 staff between April 23 and March 24 compared to 47 staff for the same period in the previous year.

Financial review

a. Results for the year

Page 6

THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED

(A Company Limited by Guarantee)

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

During the financial year of 2023/24 Jubilee House made significant changes to the financial processes and team to improve the level of reporting and cost control reviewing all elements of expenditure.

Some cost savings have been made but our staff costs have increased considerably with inflationary pay rises, the introduction of auto-enrolment pensions, and the requirement for increased training in the learning disability sector all having an impact on our costs. The Minimum Wage increased by 9.7% which was not matched by the annual uplifts from the County Council.

Cash and cash equivalent have increased by £384,420 to £995,848 at 31st March 2024. This is primarily due to the pre-payment of a support contract through NHS.

b. Reserves policy

The reserves policy remains unchanged. A number of designated funds exist to more clearly distinguish between funds required for contingency purposes, funds earmarked for specific projects, and funds tied up in business assets.

A full breakdown of the reserves is shown in Note 18 Statement of Funds on page 33, and this shows that out of total reserves of £1,937,098 designated reserves now total £2,015,173. Of this £350,000 has been set aside for Business Contingency, representing around 76% of the average spending of our two largest contracts for six months, which would provide sufficient funds to ensure the continuation of the business if these contracts were lost.

c. Going concern

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular, the Trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and have taken account of pressures on events.

The Trustees considered the impact of the financial loss made in the year, the growing difficulty in recruitment and changes in the UK workforce. The charity understands the impact of the loss of associated with certain services and its broader effect on the charity this financial year and understands the urgency for the savings plan to be fully delivered.

The charity has good cash and reserves position at the time of approval of these financial statements. Having made an assessment, the trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of the audit report of these financial statements. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Structure, governance and management

a. Constitution

The Jubilee House Care Trust Limited is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum and Articles of Association. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. There are currently 31 members of the Company as change from 38 in the previous year.

b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees

We source new trustees through personal recommendation, advertising or by a targeted approach. All new trustees undergo personal effectiveness interviews as part of the recruitment process in line with our safeguarding policy and must be cleared by the Data Barring Service, and we follow the Charity Commission’s guidelines on recruitment at each Annual General Meeting, one third of Board members retire by rotation, with the option to stand for re-election.

c. Policies adopted for the induction and training of Trustees

New trustees undergo an induction process which includes visits to all services and introductions to key staff: they are also mentored by an existing Board member. They receive a Trustee Handbook outlining the specific responsibilities and expectations of both them and the Company. Ongoing training is offered to all trustees and they are encouraged to regularly visit Jubilee House services and to participate in Jubilee House events.

d. Organisational structure and decision-making policies

Normally, the Board of Trustees meets monthly, and there are bi-monthly sub-committees which cover finance, operations and governance, as well as a remuneration committee which meets annually. Each sub-committee is chaired by a Trustee and also has senior management representation. Since March 2020 the Board has changed to virtual meetings. The Chief Executive (Jon Pratten) is appointed by the trustees to manage the dayto-day operations of the charity.

e. Related party relationships

None of our Trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. A register of Trustees’ and senior managers’ interests is maintained and updated on an annual basis, and Trustees are excluded from decision making in any circumstances where they have a personal interest.

f. Pay policy for key management personnel

The Directors, who are also the Trustees, consider that the board of directors and the management team (comprising Chief Executive, Head of Operations, Head of Finance, Head of HR, and the Registered Managers of the individual services), comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Trust on a day-to-day basis.

Pay awards for all staff are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee which meets annually and the recommendations for increases or bonuses are then approved by the Board of Trustees.

g. Risk management

The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:  A formal risk management process whereby each sub-committee is responsible for identifying and reviewing

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Structure, governance and management (continued)

the business risks falling within its own area of concern, with overall overview by the full Board of Trustees.

Our key risk is that of a failure to adequately safeguard Individuals or to provide good quality care. To protect against this, we have a robust set of policies and procedures ensuring that Individuals are safeguarded: a rigorous recruitment process including DBS check and personal effectiveness interview; a comprehensive induction process for new staff and an ongoing training programme for existing staff; external quality monitoring audits; a clear policy on whistleblowing; comprehensive Exit Interviews and comprehensive health and safety policies.

In a financial climate where statutory funding for learning disabilities is becoming ever tighter, the key financial risks facing the charity are increasing agency costs as staff recruitment is become more and more difficult due to hourly rates, comparative jobs that pay more and the whole Social Care sector losing favour since the Pandemic. There is also a risk of failure to control our costs, not keep pace with increasing inflation and being unsuccessful in renegotiating our contracts. Staff costs make up most of our cost base, and in an area of high employment attracting staff at a competitive salary is challenging. Currently services are predominantly provided to Hertfordshire County Council, and our aim is to diversify our revenue base to increase the proportion of our revenues that are received from grant funding, or from other contractual sources. We are investigating new partnerships with other organisations which will enable us to do this.

Loss of key management personnel has also been identified as a key risk, which we mitigate by regular benchmarking of salaries, an increased management team and overlapping skillsets.

With the Data Protection Act 2018 implementing the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulations we have continued to review our data protection environment to ensure that we comply with the new regulations. We have a comprehensive training programme for all new staff on the requirements of the regulations.

Plans for future periods

We continue to focus on expanding the size and services offered by the charity so we can continue to extend our operating efficiencies, lower our central costs and give a greater degree of financial security to our future.

We are now operating 3 children’s short break centres as well as an adult short break centre. This makes Jubilee House the largest provider of Childrens Short Breaks service in Hertfordshire.

Due to pressures in staff recruitment and hourly pay rates being offered by competitors, the operational staff salaries will need a substantial increase in April 2025 if Jubilee House would like to remain a competitive employer in and around Hertfordshire.

We also have the opportunity to take on more transition opportunities where people are moving from local hospitals, and other services, back into the community and family life.

We continue to be focussed on growth and diversification, both by tendering for new services in Hertfordshire or the surrounding counties and by increasing the amount of support provided under our existing services.

We are continuing to work to increase the percentage of our income which comes from grant funding however this has been very challenging this year. We are devoting more energy to building up relationships with local organisations to increase our visibility in the local community to facilitate this.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Jubilee House Care Trust Limited (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (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 charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, 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 charitable company'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.

Page 11

(A Company Limited by Guarantee)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. 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. 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 course of 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.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Page 12

THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (A Company Limited by Guarantee)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they 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 charitable company'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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

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 an Auditors' Report 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 a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

Page 13

THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED

(A Company Limited by Guarantee)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charitable company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. We focused on laws and regulations that could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and relevant tax legislation.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

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 Auditors' Report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THE JUBILEE HOUSE CARE TRUST LIMITED (A Company Limited by Guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1. General information

The Jubilee House Care Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office is Suite 2, 6 Silver Court, Watchmead, Welwyn Garden City, United Kingdom, AL7 1LT.

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Jubilee House Care Trust Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

2.2 Going concern

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charitable company to continue as a going concern. The Trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular, the Trustees have considered the charitable company's forecasts and projections and have taken account of pressures on income.

Based on this and the strong cash and reserves position at the time of approval of these financial statements, the Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of the audit report of these financial statements. The charitable company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

2.3 Income

All income is recognised once the Charitable Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Donations and grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance Sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.4 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 allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charitable Company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and noncharitable trading.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charitable Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

2.5 Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charitable Company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.6 Taxation

The Charitable Company is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. Its income is also exempt from value added tax. Expenditure disclosed in the accounts included value added tax where applicable.

2.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.8 Investments

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Investment property is carried at fair value determined annually by external valuers and derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any differences in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset.

2.9 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.10 Cash at bank and in hand

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

2.11 Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charitable Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.

2.12 Financial instruments

The Charitable Company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.13 Pensions

The Charitable Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charitable Company to the fund in respect of the year.

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.14 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charitable Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charitable Company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
