**NIGHTSAFE LIMITED CHAIR’S FOREWORD FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

Dear friends and supporters of Nightsafe 

I was honoured to take over as chairperson of Nightsafe from Julie Thomas in November 2021. 

Nightsafe continues to be an essential provider of services to young people in Blackburn with Darwen, working with young people who are homeless or are at risk of homelessness. 

Nightsafe was adept as pivoting our services in response to the challenges presented by the Covid pandemic and we continue to do so. We adapted and learnt how to provide services whilst keeping service users and our staff safe. 

Nightsafe continues to support young people from that point of crisis through to independent living in their own home. Nightsafe supports young people in challenging circumstances, meets housing needs, supports and helps develop life skills. By providing services at the day centre, the emergency shelter, through bespoke supported housing and medium stay accommodation. 

For over 30 years, every week throughout the year, Nightsafe delivers for young people. None of this could be done without those who support us – the individuals that fundraise and donate, our funders, businesses that support us, our volunteers, the board of trustees, and the staff team - what a combined effort and achievement! 

This year we have seen consistent and innovative fundraising activities ranging from sponsored walks to bake sales, to sponsored runs to sleep outs and even sleep ins! All massively creative, all hugely appreciated. Safe to say much fun was had and a lot of thought behind why these activities were being undertaken. We are so very grateful for everyone’s efforts. 

Huge thanks once again goes to all our Funders, including: Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council, Community Fund Lottery, Brian Mercer Foundation, Children In Need, The National Foundation of Music, The Lancaster Foundation we are indebted to them for their support 

Nightsafe is growing and evolving, we are a thriving organisation, but we only succeed because people support us, and do so in many ways. Please continue to do so. 

Thank you to all involved with Nightsafe. 

Elizabeth Taylor Chair of Trustees

**NIGHTSAFE LIMITED TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended March 31 2022 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies act purposes. 

## **REPORTING FRAMEWORK** 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019), referred to as the Charities SORP (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Chartable objects** 

The charity’s objectives are: 

- to provide temporary accommodation for homeless young people in the North West of England including primarily but not exclusively in East Lancashire (hereinafter called ‘the Area of Benefit’); 

- to promote the welfare of young people in the area of benefit who are in need, hardship or distress; 

- to provide counselling, information and advisory services for young people; 

- to provide creative activities for young people to experience and engage in; and 

- to develop and provide facilities, activities and services in order to alleviate the problems relating to homelessness and improve the wellbeing and opportunities for young people in the Area of Benefit. 

## **Activities** 

In order to achieve these objectives the Charity provides: 

- **Emergency Night Shelter** 

   - The shelter can accommodate 5 young people each night and provides bed, breakfast; evening meal plus washing facilities and support from 2 staff that help create a warm welcoming atmosphere. All young people receive resettlement advice to help find more permanent accommodation. 

- **Platform 5 Day-centre** 

   - The Day-centre is open each week-day to all young people aged 16 – 24 who are homeless or living in unsettled accommodation and need support to regain a stake in the community. The Day-centre offers basic facilities laundry, shower, storage, lunch and delivers a range of life skills and health workshops. These include cook & eat, drug and alcohol awareness, healthy life styles etc. 

- **Cornfield Cliffe** 

This is a supported housing project situated in Darwen with 6 residential places for young people aged 16 to 24 with high support needs. Each young person has their own individual support plan tailored to their own need. 

- **Witton Project** 

   - This is a 4-bed supported housing project in Blackburn for young people aged 16 – 18 they have to be involved in meaningful activity such as training, education, volunteering or employment. Each young person has their own individual support plan tailored to their own need. 

- **Safe@St Silas**

**NIGHTSAFE LIMITED TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

- **Mentoring service** 

Our mentor service continues to work in partnership with the Volunteer Centre. This initiative links young people who are rough sleeping, vulnerably housed or sofa surfing with a volunteer mentor who will work with them to access settled accommodation. Giving disengaged young people the support and encouragement needed to engage with services to address the barriers to a settled life, making a difference by giving young people someone to support and befriend them at crisis point, guiding them through the process of finding accommodation helping to break the cycle of homelessness. 

## **Aims** 

- To provide an information, advice and support service for young homeless people. 

- To provide emergency accommodation in Blackburn Town Centre. 

- To provide Resettlement services for young people. 

- To provide 2 supported housing projects in Blackburn and Darwen, to promote life and social skills leading to independent living. 

- To provide health & educational Day Centre services. 

- To work with other statutory and voluntary agencies in the Borough to ensure young homeless people have best services. 

- To continue to develop services in conjunction with other agencies to improve the services for young homeless people, and to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of joint services provided. 

- To Ensure young people are able to access their rights. 

- To involve all staff and volunteers in the management of the organisation through the provision of appropriate training to enable the staff, volunteers and the organisation to achieve their full potential. 

## **Contribution of volunteers** 

Volunteers are the back bone of Nightsafe’s service, our emergency night shelter is partly staffed by our team of full time volunteers who come from different parts of Britain and across the world to give their time to Nightsafe, and in the last 12 months we have volunteers from Taiwan, Colombia, UK, Germany, Mexico, and South Korea. They are also an integral part of the staff team at our Witton project. We have a team of local volunteers who get involved in all aspects of the organisation, acting as mentors, offering practical help to the projects using their individual skills to enhance the service to young people. Volunteers also help with fundraising and raising the profile of the organisation. 

## **Public benefit** 

The charity has had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. 

The public benefit of our project results in: 

- Young people getting off the streets and getting involved in resettlement programmes. 

- Young people avoiding and moving away from criminal activities and anti-social behaviour 

- Young people accessing a range of services and participating in training 

- Young people becoming active participating members of our community 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Overview** 

It is with some relief that I write this report to say that 2021- 2022 has been a more settled operational year for Nightsafe. Covid although ever present has largely meant that Nightsafe has, like other organisations across Blackburn with Darwen found a way through to learn from new ways of operating to ensure wherever possible the safety of the young people and its staff and volunteers. 

Year on year Nightsafe continues to build on good practice providing and building on its mantra of, Somewhere to go, Somewhere to stay and Someone to talk to. Each year the service we provide is needed more and more and whilst numbers of homeless young people are increasing it is also true to say that what is more noticeable is the extent and level of support needed. As families face ongoing challenges to support their children, pay bills and put food on the table, often the price being paid results in greater family breakdown. 

21 -22 has like previous years presented Nightsafe with ongoing challenges and opportunities in equal measure. Like every year securing funding continues to be a challenge for all VCFSE organisations. Nightsafe continues to be grateful to all its Funders and Stakeholders and ever more grateful for the hugely generous donations from both the local and further afield community.

## **NIGHTSAFE LIMITED TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

During this last year we said a fond farewell and grateful thanks to Julie Thomas who had been our Chair of Trustees for over nine years. Julie will be greatly missed having brought a wealth of skill and expertise to the position. Under Julie’s Chairing Nightsafe has grown massively from having 2 Housing Projects to shortly being in a position to open its 5[th] ! Going forward it is with great pleasure and thanks that we welcome Elizabeth Taylor as our new Chair of Trustees. Elizabeth once again has a huge amount of skill and expertise and has been a valued and well respected Nightsafe Trustee for over 5 years. 

This year once again brought some other staffing changes to Nightsafe. Some staff moved on to pastures new and others have joined us and have been welcomed into the Nightsafe fold. Additionally, we have commissioned external HR support which has provided much needed advice and guidance with regards to good practice at Nightsafe and compliance with regards all HR matters. In addition Nightsafe has continued it’s ongoing commitment to our young people, staff and volunteers in commissioning Wellbeing Support – this has been well received by all. 

As with all other previous years our thanks go to our Trustees and Volunteers. Without them we would be unable to provide the support we do to our young people. Their expertise and skill sets are invaluable. Our LEAP Project once again had a very successful year and our Project Co-ordinator was very successful in getting and keeping our young people in work, education and Training. 

Year on year our Housing Projects have gone on from strength to strength and additionally we are now in the progress of working towards getting our 5[th] Housing Project ready to accommodate an additional 6 young people. Anchor Avenue will give us a 2[nd] Housing Project in Darwen and we are very excited at the prospect of this new addition. 

This year we have continued to support young people move into their own properties and continue to provide Dispersed Outreach Support to enable young people manage their tenancies. 

Platform 5 and the Night Shelter have returned to some semblance of the new ‘normal’ and Nightsafe has ensured that protocols set up at the height of the Covid Pandemic have become a way of life and are now part of Nightsafe good practice.  Both Platform 5 and the Shelter continue to be needed as much as ever. 

I am delighted to update that we are now in a much better position of being able to offer placements to our overseas Volunteers and it’s great to have them back supporting our young people. We are very grateful for their enthusiasm and positive approach to making life as comfortable as possible in the Shelter for our young people and it’s great to know that they take back a wealth of experience when they return to their host countries together with our thanks. 

Summing up 2021 - 2022 has been a hugely positive year, we hope for more of the same in 2022 – 2023. Exciting times are ahead with the opening of Anchor Avenue and our planned new Allotment. 

See you back here next year! 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Overview** 

We had a deficit on unrestricted funds for the year of c£95k (2021 -surplus  c£99k). **Risk management** 

The Trustees undertook a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed in January 2016, and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.  Periodic reviews are made to ensure that the charity continues to identify and mitigate any major risk that may arise. 

The major financial risks facing the charity are – short term funding, changes in funding streams including housing benefit entitlements and caps, changes in local and central government policy. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Nightsafe has 4 main strands of funding these are: -   Local Authority funding through commissioned work and Service Level Agreements, Rental Income for the accommodation services (Housing Benefit), grants from charitable trusts such as, Big lottery (Reaching communities) Children in Need etc. and our own fundraising and donations from many local organisations and individuals. 

## **Investment policy and review** 

Nightsafe’s investment policy is to invest any reserves it holds in a place that gives the best return for the organisation. A review will take place when bonds mature at which time a search of the market will be made, there will also be a periodic review of bank accounts to ensure we are receiving the best rates and service available. 

**5** 



**NIGHTSAFE LIMITED TRUSTEES’ AND DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

## **Reserves** 

In light of the main financial risks facing the charity the Trustees have determined that free reserves (unrestricted funds not designated or invested in fixed assets) equivalent to 6 months operating costs are required, approximately £450,000 based on the 22/23 budget (prior year £450,000).  At this level the charity would be able to ensure the short-term continuation of services in the light of cuts in funding and/or manage an orderly reduction or cessation of those services if new funding could not be secured.   At the year end the charity had free reserves of c£357k. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

After another year of considerable challenges, Nightsafe will focus on getting all Projects ‘back to normal’. This has proved to be a challenge with staff sickness continuing to be a problem and difficulties around our overseas Volunteers obtaining Visas. We will work to look at how as an organisation we can supplement this with continued recruitment of Bank Staff and by the forging of new relationships with potential providers. 

We are very much looking forward to the opening of our new Housing Project ,  Anchor Avenue. This has been a big piece of work, very much dependant on the support of Volunteers with us being wonderfully supported by Trades people and local Business. 

We will continue our review of the Organisation to ensure we are ‘Organisationally Fit’ to meet the ongoing challenges. We commissioned Orchard Insights to undertake a Review back in 2019, since then the World has changed not just the local landscape in Blackburn with Darwen. We will once again review our Structure and Governance to ensure we are able to meet both challenges and any opportunities that present so as to take best advantage of any Funding available. 

We will continue to grow and develop our relationship with Blackburn with Darwen’s Children’s Social Services, particularly with the Leaving Care Team. As part of this we will provide Supported accommodation for some of the Borough’s young asylum seekers. 

In addition to all this we will continue to provide the best possible support for young homeless people. We will continue to consult with our young people and advocate on their behalf to ensure that they aspire and grow and are happy and healthy.

The trustees (who are also directors of Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019); 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

   - explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

**NIGHTSAFE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022** 

## **1  ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared: under the historic cost convention; in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice – Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) effective January 1 2019 (second edition – October 2019); FRS102; and the Companies Act 2006. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. 

The accounts are prepared in £ sterling, which is the functional currency. 

## **Income recognition** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.  The following applies to particular types of income: 

**Grants** , whether of a capital or revenue nature, are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions have been met and it is probable that the income will be received. 

**Donations** from individuals and other bodies (not being of the nature of a grant) are recognised when receivable. 

**Donated goods** from individuals and organisations **,** comprising food and toiletries for distribution to beneficiaries, are included in the accounts at fair their value when distributed. valued when distributed, as it is both impractical to value as stock when received and the costs of doing so would outweigh the benefits. 

**Earned income** is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for services and goods supplied, net of discounts and VAT. 

## **Deferred income** 

Income is only deferred and included in creditors when: 

- The income relates to a future accounting period 

- A sales invoice has been raised ahead of the work being carried out and there is no contractual entitlement to the income until the work has been done 

- Not all the terms and conditions of the grant have been met, including the incurring of expenditure and the grant conditions are such that unspent grant must be refunded 

## **Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.  Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

Costs of raising funds 

including those associated with fundraising activities, managing investments and commercial trading by the subsidiary company. 

Charitable activities costs of undertaking the work of the charity. 

The charity is not registered for VAT and cannot recover any input tax charged. Costs are stated inclusive of VAT were charged. 

## **Allocation of support costs** 

Support costs are those functions which assist the work of the charity either by supporting the delivery of charitable activities or by supporting the generation of funds.  They include property costs, back office functions, staff costs, depreciation and professional fees.  The basis of allocations is set out in note 6.

## **1  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Pension contributions** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its employees, agreeing the contribution rates with each individual. The contributions are paid to a third party who invests the contributions in a money purchase plan.  Contributions are charged to the SoFA as they become payable. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Individual fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight line basis as set out below.  The charity has revalued it freehold properties at market value.  This valuation is kept under review and periodically updated (usually every five years). 

Depreciation rates are as follows: 

- Freehold land not subject to depreciation 

- Freehold buildings 1% straight line  Premises improvements 20% straight line  Fixtures & fittings 20% straight line 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due and prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid. 

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount. 

## **Financial instruments** 

The charity has only basic financial instruments which are initially recorded at cost, subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

## **Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
