BOARD REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Welcome to Resolve West's 2023 -2024 Annual Report and Financial Statements.
As you will see from this report there is mLJch to celebrate, as our core services continue to SLJPPOrt our clients across
Bristol and the surrounding counties.
We have continued to invest in new ways to showcase our work and were delighted to launch our new website in
September 2023 which has given us greater opportunities for those that want to find out more and refer into our
services. We also used this opportunity to refresh our resources for volunteers with secure log in areas for both our
volunteerfacilitators and trustees. We have refreshed our otherareas of communication through regular newsletters
and increased use of our social media platforms.
As an agency we were delighted that our Restorative Justice Service was awarded Registered Service Provider Status
by the Restorative J ustice Council. This status enables us to continue to build public trust in the professional services
that we deliver and clearly demonstratesthat our organisation, our practitioners and the services thatwe deliver meet
best practice standards.
As to the board of Trustees, we said farewell to Michael, our Chair who Se￿ed on the board for six years. We are
incredibly grateful for all of his support over the years including his support through some of our most challenging
times, particularly the Covid-19 pandemic, and we wish him the very best for the future. Lou, one of our existing
trustees offered to step up into the role of interim chair while we plan for the recruitment of a permanent chair. We
were also pleased to welcome Martin to the board.
The financial reports below show that we have remained consistent on last year in overall income and expenditure.
With the challenges in the public funding sector and the general increase of inflationary costs. we anticipate that
funding will be a challenge next year. However. by maintaining sensible financial discipline as well as looking for new
areas of funding. we a re confident in our financial resilience in future.
As a board we would like to thank all the staff and volunteers who have supported Resolve West.

TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
DIREcfoR'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Structure. Governance and Management
New or additional trustees are appointed in the manner set out in the Charity's governing documents, namely by way of
election at the Annual General Meeting.
Resolve West Limited is governed by the Board of Trustees. which meets bi-monthly, and which carries the ultimate
responsibility for the activities of the organisation. They appoint the Director who is entrusted to make any decisions that
enable the delivery of the business plan. A bi-monthly report on management activity 15 given at each Board meeting.
The Board, in conjunction with the Director, makes strategic decisions. Otherstaff and volunteers are accountable to the
Director.
Training of trustees
Each new trustee has access to resources online, which contain reference information on the organisation and their role
within it, including job descriptions for each of the trustee roles, a history of the organi5ation, the business plan, and al I
policies. These resources are regularly updated. Training for trustees may tske place during trustee meeting times or
during development/training days. Any specific training needs may be met through external training courses.
Risk Management
The trustees continually review risks and take action to mitigate them. Our dependence on service agreements including
that with Bristol City Council and the Office of the Police Crime Commissioner. the withdrawal of which would seriously
affect our income, is a risk that the trustees continually try to reduce through management of the contracts and
development of services funded by other partners. Internal risks are minimized by the implementation of effective
internal control procedures that ensure both appropriate authorization of all transactions and projects and consistent
quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charity- These procedures are periodically reviewed for their
continuing effectiveness.
Objectives and Activities
These are set out in the Memorandum and Articles of ￿SOCiation. namely=
To promote for the public benefit of the citizens ond communities in ond oround the City of Bristol ond surrounding
counties and with a view to the preservation of public order. the provision of services directed to repairing harm by
restorotive justice working with victims of crime ond perpetrotors of horm." ond resolving conflict by mediation and
conciliotion between persons, orgonisotions ond groups who are involved or who ore ot risk of becoming involved in
disputes or interpersonal conflicts where ony such dispute or conflict results from or may lead to acts of nuisance,
vandolism, raciol obuse or breoch of the peoce.
To achieve these objectives, and this aim. Resolve West trains mediators and restorative justice facilitators for ourselves
and other organisations. We have a body of volunteers who work with parties who have experienced conflict or criminal
activity- Referrals come from Avon & Somerset Constabulary. Criminal Justice Agencies. Housing Associations. and Local

Authority. In addition, we have referrals from other sources such as individuals. other statutory and voluntary agencies.
housing associations, which we encourage and want to increase.
Conflict and criminal activity are very detrimental to the lives of those directly involved and have impacts on people's
health and wellbeing. We do carry out surveys of those we have helped and. while not claiming complete success in
every case, with our help our clients show high satisfaction in the services that they receive, enabling them to have a
voice and to feel heard, to be able to move forward and to have some closure that greatly improves their quality of life.
We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when
reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities.
The aims, methods and benefits of restorative approaches are not widely appreciated, and we are keen to improve
society's knowledge of them. To that end. our trustees and staff attend meetings and make presentations when
appropriate opportunities arise.
Since Bristol Mediation was originally incorporated in 1990 after the St Pauls Riots, restorative approaches have been
taken up and developed by other organisations. We will make every effort to continue with this work and develop new
services, both by ourselves and in conjunction with other like-minded organisations.
Achievements during the year
Resolve West started the year p051tively following a successful bidding process leading to continued funding from Bristol
City Council to deliver conflict re501ution services for two years and a150 relation5hip5 and contracts with other housing
providers. We also started to work closely with the OfFice of the Police Crime Commissioner and an independent agency
evaluating the commissioned victim services, regarding future funding beyond 2025.
We provided neighbourhood/community conflict resolution (CRI and Restorative Justice IRJI services across Avon &
Somerset, as well as our ongoing partnership work as part of Bristol Hate Crime and Discrimination service with our
partners, SARI (Stand against Racism and Inequality). Brandon Trust. Bristol Mind. Off the Record and Bristol Law Centre.
In addition we continued to provide ad-hoc conflict resolution services to organisations related to workplace conflict.
During this period, we worked with 994 direct beneficiaries across all of our services including those who have attended
our workshops. trainings and briefings. Of course. indirert beneficiaries are far greater. We have delivered and have
provided support and supervision to 67 volunteer practitioners who between them have volunteered in excess of 6,432
hours with a social value exceeding £103.000 per annum.
We were delighted to have welcomed back Nina Bayandor following her maternity leave in October 2023, and said
goodbye to Sam Edwards who covered the role of Service manager during her maternity leave.
We have continued with the positive contact with all of our funders and referrers throughout this period and were
pleased to have received an uplift from the Office of the Police Crime Commissioner towards our Restorative JLAStice
Service and an uplift from Local Authority as part of our Hate Crime and Discrimination Services.
Following significant work from the RJ team and also ourvalued RJ volunteers we were delighted to have been awarded
Registered Provider Status through the Restorative Justice Council. which highlighted through this independent
evaluation the high quality of the service that we provide.

We have continued to work closely with our partners as part of Bristol Hate Crime and Discrimination Services and
worked collaboratively to deliver workshops and forums to raise awareness of Hate and understanding of Hate Incidents,
the impact of these, how we can help. and to upskill the attendees in managing these in the future.
We have continued to work in partnership with others and to link up regularly with providers locally as part of a regional
RJ Working Group and a RJ Tactical group to develop and to pilot areas of work to increase the use of RJ. We have also
linked with others across the country at meetings, forums and strategic boards to ensure that restorative approaches
and conflict resolution are built into plans when working to tackle crime and conflict.
We have continued to network and link with other national providers. sharing training opportunities and ensuring that
we can share best practice and continue to learn from each other.
Internally we completed a review of our IT Security. putting in additional measures to ensure our systems are secure,
and continued to review. update and implement policy updates moving forward. We successfully completed our
updated website which included renewing and updating our branding and launched the new website in September
2023 improving the opportunities to showcase our work and Se￿iceS including important resources for our volunteers
and developed monthly bulletins and quarterly newsletters as well as developing a social media sub-group so that this
is updated on a regular basis.
All of these developments, and the services we have continued to deliver in the past 12 months would not have been
possible without the ongoing commitment. resilience. skills and expertise of all of our staff and volunteers. We were
delighted in this period to welcome new volunteers to the Rl seNice and the CR service. Our volunteers and staff
continue to be Resolve West's greatest asset and what enables us to continue to provide these vital services to people
who have experienced harm or conflict across the region.
Financial Report
Results for the year

both received an uplift in 2023-24 (£1,311 for BIF and £4.475 for RAASI due to inflationary pressures. This will continue
to the end of these projects. The income from Neighbourhood conflict resolution cases has reduced from £68,361 to
£53.380. This is due to a reduction in funding from the BCC1£8.0001 and other housing associations. Fundraising levels

£3,079.
Expenditure during the year amounted to £344.903 12022-23= £344,855). There has been an increase in salaries across
all teams due to inflationary and incremental rises. Direct costs have not changed significantly and in some areas reduced

Phones as we used some of the legacy money from 2021-22 to rebuild our website. The spending on this came to
£7,000.
The result is that there was net movement of £21,123 Ideficitl on unrestricted funds 12022-23.. £46.957 surplus) and a
deficit of £7,475 on restricted funds {2022-23- £805 deficit). giving an overall deficit of £28,598 12022-23.. surplus of
