Achievements and Performance in the past year

Property management continues with regular full time hirer now requesting to prolong the current licence to a 5 year lease. Repairs and maintenance work are carried out as and when necessary. Planning permission applied for replacement side window but this is still on going due to a Central Bedfordshire conservation planning team requesting lots of further information and the loss of the contractor who was due to carry out the work.

School uniform grants were given out and it was a record year with more applications received for many years.

The flat was refurbished including the need for a wall to be replastered using original lathe and plaster technique as required of a listed building. A new tenant has been sourced.

Finances

Chews House is the main asset which achieves an income from renting rooms to help with the running, administration and maintenance costs.

Money is invested and the interest is used for grants for school uniforms for children in need. Other income is obtained from rent of the house flat and the theatre.

To Whom It May Concern & The Governors

CHEWS FOUNDATION – Charity Reg. No: 307500

I have been asked by the Clerk to The Governors of the above charity, Mrs Julie Tipler, to carry out an independent inspection of the accounts for the period from 1[st] April 2024 to 31[st] March 2025.

I have been given full access to all relevant documents including:

The Trustees Report for the relevant period plus a list of Trustees
The Minutes from the meetings held on June 2024 & December 2024
BACS payment paperwork
Suppliers Invoices
The accounts spreadsheet for the year (Income & Expenses summary, Financial Assets list & Cashbook)
Bank Statements
Budget Documents

The major part of my inspection is to fully cross-check all the Bank Statements, BACS payment confirmations, and the relevant invoices for the period against the cash book spreadsheet. I am pleased to report that this work is now complete and I have found no inconsistencies or errors. There are no cash transactions. VAT is paid where it is due and is correctly managed. The Clerk has confirmed that all tax and NI due on her salary is paid and in order. The very limited number of queries I raised with the Clerk were answered swiftly and satisfactorily.

Conclusions:

It has been my pleasure to inspect these annual accounts over a number of years now and I am pleased to confirm that, as previously, it appears that funds are spent with due consideration and in line with the ethos of the charity. It is evident that the buildings are all well maintained with repairs being swiftly managed. The commercial need to manage the buildings for posterity and income-generation is well balanced, and the objectives of the Chews Foundation to provide support to those in need is ongoing and well thought through.

Due to the age of the properties, there are a significant number of repairs and improvements required. These are carried out in a timely, efficient and cost-effective manner, with quotations sought in advance where appropriate. The Clerk and Governors take a proactive approach to property maintenance and give thought to the most practical ways of generating rental income from the available facilities, taking into account the safety of tenants, legal regulations and the security of the various buildings. This is clearly evidenced through the minutes. Due consideration is given to the historical legacy of these properties. Uniform grants are issued in an organised manner. Day to day financial accounting and record-keeping is accurate, efficient and timely. Paperwork is well managed and there is clear evidence that income and payments are regularly scrutinised.

I have suggested that it would be helpful to have a separate Asset Register with a valuation of all the buildings managed by the Charity and any other historic objects and items of significance and will be discussing with the Clerk if this will be of value to the Charity.

Thank you for asking me to carry out this inspection. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours faithfully,

Nicola E West
