The service charge budgets represent the costs that we expect to incur in a normal year, with a full retirement development. We aim for them to be as accurate as possible and we try to keep annual increases in line with inflation, although certain costs like energy prices can have inflationary pressures that are outside of our control. Typically, our retirement communities have shown a slight surplus which is refunded each year to homeowners.
