**COUNTY ARMAGH GRAND ORANGE LODGE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE LIMITED (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
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 charitable company's Memorandum and Articles of Association, 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 charity's purposes are:
(1) to promote community development within County Armagh, and its environs of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland (hereinafter called the area of benefit) by promoting, developing and supporting community and voluntary sector organisations within the area of benefit; and,
(2) to promote any other purpose, or purposes, for the benefit of the inhabitants of the area of benefit, which are, or hereafter may be deemed, charitable under the law of Northern Ireland, and in particular: - to provide or assist in the acquisition and the provision of community facilities within the area of benefit, for the benefit of the local communities in the interest of the social welfare, for education, recreation and other leisure-time occupation, with the object of improving conditions of life of the said inhabitants,
- to advance education of the public concerning the heritage and history of County Armagh and its environs and to maintain and manage Sloan's House, Loughgall, County Armagh, a building of special historical interest, as an interpretive centre and museum, for the public benefit.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland in deciding what activities the charitable company should undertake.
## **Achievements and performance**
During the year, the charity continued to run County Armagh Community Development (CACD) and Sloan's House (CAGOL).
Devolved government in Northern Ireland was restored on 3 February 2024 after a 24 month hiatus. This led to uncertainty around the future delivery of community development support with an initial 3 month funding package being extended in July until September and then until 31 March 2025. Even with these challenges CACD have delivered an extensive programme of activities, networking and training events using online resources and face to face. Providing mentoring support to groups and individuals to benefit the community and to assist them in maximising the resources available to them and how collectively we could best respond to changing circumstances and support the community in an ever changing environment.
We have continued to develop and strengthen linkages between community groups and the wider community and voluntary sector as well as statutory authorities.
We have delivered a Safe Food project for young families and making use of a slow cooker project for the wider community.
We have met all our targets agreed with our core funder, the Department for Communities.

**COUNTY ARMAGH GRAND ORANGE LODGE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE LIMITED (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
We continue to engage with a range of Church and faith groups as well as marching bands and the Loyal Orders as an effective means of contacting the traditionally hard to reach within the community.
We remain committed to delivering and facilitating the development of good relations both within the PUL community and across the wider community.
During the past year, the "Museum of Orange Heritage" at Sloan's House has been successful in attracting a wide range of groups for visits and meetings; such visits are back to pre-pandemic numbers, but drop-ins are still relatively small. One pleasing feature has been the number of overseas visitors.
A few cross community and cross border groups have been hosted, and it has also been used by some local community groups. In addition, several historical lectures, training sessions, meetings and exhibitions have been held in the large Meeting Room. That facility within the premises is very much viewed as a valuable community resource.
This has been a very successful year, but it is recognised that much more needs to be done to bring the community to a point that we would like to see, and we are fully committed to delivering that outcome.
## **Financial review**
The charity's net outgoing restricted funds for the year are £43,477 (2024 - outgoing £54,002) which will be deducted from funds brought forward.
The charity's net incoming unrestricted funds for the year are £6,359 (2024 - outgoing £2,603) which will be added to funds brought forward.
At the Statement of Financial Position date, the charity held restricted funds of £882,841 and unrestricted funds of £88,164.
It is the policy of the charitable company that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charitable company’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charitable company is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity is a company limited by guarantee, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 1 November 2005. The charity is registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
|Mr J Copeland|(Resigned 17 February 2025)|
|---|---|
|Mr R S A Gardiner||
|Mr D J Watson||
|Mr W L Burnett||
|Mr C G B Livingstone|(Appointed 17 February 2025)|
None of the trustees has any beneficial interest in the company. All of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.
The day to day running of the charitable company has been designated to Mr L S Singleton, secretary.

**COUNTY ARMAGH GRAND ORANGE LODGE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE LIMITED (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
County Armagh Grand Orange Lodge Community Development Committee Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in Northern Ireland. The registered office is 27a Main Street, Markethill, Co Armagh, BT60 1PH.
## **1.1 Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity’s governing document, 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 Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2019). The charitable company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charitable company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention. 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 charitable company 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 or grantors 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.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charitable company.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charitable company 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 charitable company 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 charitable company 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.

**COUNTY ARMAGH GRAND ORANGE LODGE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE LIMITED (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies (Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
- expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
- expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
- other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
## **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 straight line over 30 years Equipment straight line over 20 years / 10 years
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 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the charitable company 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).
## **1.8 Stocks**
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
## **1.9 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies (Continued)**
## **1.10 Financial instruments**
The charitable company 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 charitable company's balance sheet when the charitable company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _**Basic financial assets**_
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charitable company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## **1.11 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charitable company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **1.12 Retirement benefits**
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

**COUNTY ARMAGH GRAND ORANGE LODGE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE LIMITED (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the charitable company’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.
## **Key sources of estimation uncertainty**
The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are as follows.
## **Fixed Assets**
The annual depreciation charge on fixed assets depends primarily on the estimated lives of each type of asset and estimates of residual values. The trustees regularly review these asset lives and change them as necessary to reflect current thinking on remaining lives in light of prospective economic utilisation and physical condition of the assets concerned. Changes in asset lives can have a significant impact on depreciation and amortisation charges for the period. Detail of the useful lives is included in the accounting policies.
