TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual trustees report, together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year ending 31[st] March 2022 which are prepared to meet the requirements for a directors report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.
The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the company comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statements 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[st] January 2019).
Objectives and activities
BSEVC’s (now known as Communities Together East Anglia) objectives are to promote and undertake charitable activities in East Anglia. The charity implements its charitable objectives through community transport, mental health and well-being activities, community activity and friendship groups and carer support opportunities.
This vital service has gone from strength to strength since coming under the Communities Together East Anglia umbrella and continues to support adult family carers across the county with a range of support services. These include a carers card, carers counselling through partner and mental health experts, MTCIC, general information, signposting and support and this year has also seen the launch and roll out of Suffolk Carers Natter – a peer to peer support/befriending network for family carers, at a community level in different locations around the county. This model of local level support has proved extremely successful, giving family carers the opportunity to meet people in similar situations to themselves, in their local area, to build support networks. 698 people have been registered for this service during the year.
Funding for this work has been gained from:
Suffolk Community Foundation through The Miller Trust Fund and The Skinner’s Fund, The Pargiter Trust Fund, The Shadwell Fund and The Simpson Fund through Suffolk Community Foundation, The Leading Lives Community Benefit Fund, Community Restart, Engaged Communities (Suffolk County Council), Geoffrey Whatling Foundation, The Ropes Trust and East Suffolk Boost.
Supporting those with Mental Health difficulties
We have continued this year to support the now established C’Art group in Sudbury, with the group moving to a new location during the year.
Connecting Communities Contracts (Mid Suffolk & Ipswich)
For the second consecutive year, Suffolk County Council extended the original 5 year contract term for another 12 months (a 7 year delivery in total).
With yet another challenging year the transport team have all worked extremely hard to ensure that the service continues with extending COVID19 precautions carefully to keep staff and passengers safe at all times. The Community Car service was able to restart in September 2021 although this has had to be rebuilt due to many volunteers experiencing changes in circumstances meaning they were no longer able to offer their time to volunteer in this way. We carried out 9600 trips and 15,701 passengers during the year.
Future plans for Connecting Communities are in the main dictated by Suffolk County Council and the expected re-tender of the contract pre-March 2023.
Group Hire (Minbus)
Bookings have been slow for this service due to the pandemic, but we have started to re-promote the service. We have also delivered a service for pupils of Thurston Community College to support their transport to and from school – this has been funded by the parents of the pupils.
Social Care Contracts (Suffolk County Council)
Existing contracts with Suffolk County Council have continued throughout the year.
Hospital Discharge Transport Service (West Suffolk Hospital)
We were approached by the Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to propose a plan for how we could support hospital discharges from West Suffolk Hospital, to reduce backlog and bed blocking. This service started on 7[[th]] February 2022 and is expected to run through until the middle of the year.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Later Life Community
The Later Life Community service has built up over the last twelve months and in addition to the Connect line – a 365 day a year telephone support service, we have also launched LLC Online and LLC Engage. During the year, the team have also supported over 30 clients with Catch Up & Chat calls whilst longer term befriending support is identified. 105 people have benefited from the LLC Connect service during the year.
LLC Online offers Tablet Courses through a partnership with Realise Futures and supporting Suffolk County Council with the Digital Champions Project.
Future plans include Tea & Tech – monthly digital support sessions held in community settings across the county (often a library), supported by volunteers (Digital Champions).
LLC Engage is all about combating loneliness and social isolation in the over 65 age group and delivering a programme of social befriending groups into communities across Suffolk. We have been working closely with Suffolk County Council – Public Health and the Connected Communities project to support their European Social Fund project around mobile social prescribing in East Suffolk. 64 people have benefited from this service during the year.
Funding for this work has been gained from:
Aviva Community Fund Community Restart East Suffolk Boost Engaged Communities (Suffolk County Council)
Suffolk Community Foundation through The Miller Trust Fund, The Hodge & Shallow Fund, The Maurken Fund, The Co-op Community Cares and The Skinner’s Fund.
The Shadwell Fund through Suffolk Community Foundation
Suffolk Community Foundation Suffolk County Council – Innovation Grant The Ropes Trust Suffolk Family Carers – Connected Communities People’s Postcode Lottery PPG
Babergh & Mid Suffolk Council Ipswich Borough Council Community Grant The Pargiter Trust Fund The Simpson Fund through Suffolk Community Foundation The Leading Lives Community Benefit Fund Geoffrey Whatling Foundation
Future plans include the launch of a later life befriending service and expanding our community engagement and outreach opportunities including community based social activity support groups.
Public Benefit
The Board of Trustees are aware of their duty to ensure the activities of BSEVC further its charitable objectives and these activities are for the purpose of public benefit. A review of these activities is included in this annual report and gives details of the help and support available to individuals and groups in the area.
Volunteers
At the end of the financial year, we had 40 registered volunteers, engaged through the community transport service, Later Life Community and the Stowmarket Rickshaw. The volunteers are key to the organisation and their commitment helps to ensure that people in the community who might otherwise be isolated are able to access community services for health, shopping and personal reasons. BSEVC is overseen by volunteer trustees.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Achievements and performance
Staff
All staff carrying out the work for BSEVC are employed by Aspire Together CIC who are commissioned to BSEVC on a service level agreement. Again, this reporting year, Aspire Together staff and management team have ensured that the services provided by BSEVC have been of high quality, reliable and affordable to the service users. The staff team have been reliable, professional and hardworking which ensured the best possible services to those who need them.
The leadership and management structure of the Company has changed significantly over the last twelve months and staff should be commended for their patience, support, flexibility and adaptability whilst the organisation has developed.
Financial Review
Financial Position
Total revenues for the year were £807,827 compared with £345,749 in the previous year reflecting the growth of new services, projects and the gradual restart of the community transport post-pandemic.
Total resources expended were £577,139 compared with £323,498, reflecting sound financial controls and planning by the board and management team but also acknowledging the growth of the organisation.
Investment Policy
BSEVC has no surplus funds to invest on a long term basis because of the reduction in available funding in recent years. BSEVC requires access to all its funds at relatively short notice. The Trustees have implemented a policy of retaining sufficient funds in the current bank accounts to cover expected monthly expenditure and place remaining funds in COIF deposit accounts until required to pay expenses.
Reserves Policy
The Trustee board had set a policy to hold 3 months windup costs which are covered by both restricted and unrestricted reserves. This policy is reviewed regularly by the trustees.
Our future plans
The Company has continued to develop and expand over the last twelve months, with the launch and bedding in of new services and projects. With continued focus on consolidating what the work we have started/re-started, the plan for the following year is to build on this, and to work closely at a grassroots community level, whilst delivering countywide support on issues and concerns where there are significant gaps in provision. There are also discussions around the potential changing of the Company name.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Communities Together East Anglia Ltd is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Red Gables, Ipswich Road, Stowmarket, IP14 1BE.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's financial policy, 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2019). The charity 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 charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. 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 charity 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 unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors 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 charity.
1.4 Incoming resources
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
1.5 Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probably that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category, Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to the activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
1.6 Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.

(Continued)
Amortisation 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:
Software
5 years straight line
1.7 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:
Plant and equipment
20% reducing balance
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 net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.8 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
1.9 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible 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).
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.
1.10 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.
1.11 Financial instruments
The charity 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 charity's balance sheet when the charity 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.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
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 charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
