Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The Charity appointed a clerk during the year to manage the administration which had been handled by the trustees after the previous clerk resigned just before the COVID pandemic. This move has been very beneficial in that it has enabled us to update all our policies and general improve governance.

The properties had some improvements in the year when night storage heaters were replaced with more economical electric heaters and the ventilation of the loft space was installed.

Our residency has remained constant with no changes in the year.

Section E Financial review

Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves

The charity’s reserves policy states that an amount of at least one year’s normal expenditure should be kept in cash. Currently we have three times the annual expenditure in cash funds.

There is also an Extraordinary Repair Fund held by M&G Investments to cover any exceptional items that may not be covered by the annual budget.

Details of any funds materially in deficit

No funds are in deficit

Further financial review details (Optional information)

You may choose to include additional information, where relevant about:

Our annual Licence income and interest received covers all the annual expenditure and we do not undertake any fund raising.

We had a Quinquennial review last year so some expenditure this year was to address items raised by the report.
