CHAIR’S FOREWORD

The business year was broadly successful despite continued challenging circumstances. Funding security remains a major concern. As expected, demand for our services remains high.

Through our team of dedicated volunteers, we have been able to maintain an appropriate level of support for our clients. The turnover of volunteers has increased significantly recently but the overall numbers have remained constant. Recruitment remains strong and training sessions are well subscribed. Twenty-four new volunteers joined during the year due to the excellent efforts of the Volunteer Recruitment Team.

The challenges facing our clients have contributed to the continued increase in demand for Being Heard our Counselling Service. The number of sessions increased from 518 to 1776. The service supported 138 clients and received 222 referrals during the year. The counselling service has now trained 29 counsellors and generated income of £17,160 in the year. The relationship with 1Point in Bolton continues to develop positively.

Client numbers increased but sessions decreased to 5232 (611 clients) compared with 6237 (540 clients) in 22/23. Support statistics show a steady demand and we expect this to continue and grow due to demographic and economic trends.

Net income rose to £444,300 from £417,040 (2022-2023). Overall, Being There generated a surplus of £17,866 compared with a planned deficit of around £5,000.

NHS funding remains the largest proportion of the charity’s funding and rose from £239,333 to £246,024, excluding Counselling Service income. Whilst future NHS approaches to our funding remains unclear, the current contracts have been renewed on a two-year basis. We anticipate further revisions to their processes and await advice.

Tameside remains the only branch which is not supported by NHS funding and this remains a major area of concern. Activities remain funded by the National Lottery Fund, Action Together (Tameside) and related sources. This contribution amounted to some £131,165 which funds Being There operations and a proportion of the counselling service. This funding is in place for the next year but the future is less secure, emphasising the need for more diverse funding sources.

Donations, gifts and related income rose from £165,639 to £176,039 returning close to pre-pandemic contributions.

Staffing costs have increased from £291.301 to £342,645 in line with expectations due to salary increases and changes in staffing levels. The Board continued its approach of aligning salary level changes with the published “Living Wage”.

The achievement of Investor’s in People status last year was a key development for the charity and it is heartening to report that the first annual review was positive, demonstrating that our approach is appropriate and provides a framework for ongoing recruitment, promotion and staff development.

The funds available to the charity remain healthy at £294,533 compared with £276,399 (2022 – 23). The reserves policy remains under active review by the Board which is striving to strike a balance between sustainability of operations, providing for contingencies and funding actions to improve, extend and diversify the services offered.

The continued success of ‘Being Heard’ is likely to require greater funding as an increasing number of clients seek support to improve their mental health due to health, economic and other pressures. The Board expects this to remain an area of growing demand.

We are aware that the value to society of the charity’s activities greatly outweighs its costs. We continue to evaluate the benefits the charity provides to its funders and wider society. These impacts are detailed later in this report.

As Chair, I am grateful for the expertise, help and support of my fellow Trustees. I am pleased to advise that Dr Mina Desai, has rejoined the board. Mina has been a fantastic supporter of the charity and its work for many years. The board remains dedicated to increasing its diversity and skills base. We would be delighted to hear from anyone who wishes to volunteer.

Being There remains sufficiently well-funded to continue and grow its services for the coming years but there remains significant concern about security of funding. The Board remains reasonably confident that healthy reserves will support a degree of flexibility in operations. We do, however, need to develop alternative and supplementary approaches to future funding.

On a final note, our longstanding Chief Executive, Karen Mercer advised that she would be retiring in the summer. We thank her for her 20 years of dedicated service and wish her well for a long and happy retirement.

We also thank our dedicated staff, volunteers and donors for their on-going support without whom we would be unable to deliver the much-needed services Being There provides.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The Charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a memorandum and articles of association.

Recruitment and Appointment of Directors and Trustees

The directors of the Charity are also trustees of the Charity and under the Charity’s articles are known as members of the Management Committee. They are appointed in accordance with company law and the Charity’s articles of association.

The articles require one third of the directors to retire each year. A retiring director is eligible for re-election. Additional directors may be co-opted during the year but must stand for election at the Annual General Meeting.

Trustee Induction and Training

Trustees normally attend a Management Committee meeting prior to joining the Charity to meet their fellow trustees and are inducted by a long-standing trustee. They are briefed on their legal obligations under charity and company law and the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association. Visits to the Charity’s branches to meet staff and volunteers are encouraged. Any new Trustee will undergo a formal training programme.

Risk Management

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. The major income source is from a number of different Greater Manchester Clinical Commissioning Groups.

Organisational Structure

The Charity is governed by its Management Committee. The Management Committee is responsible for formulating the strategy and policies for the Charity including the approval of budgets and the exercising of financial controls through regular financial reporting.

The Charity is run on a day-to-day basis by the Senior Management Team.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The Charity is established to promote the relief of any person suffering from cancer in any form or any life limiting or other terminal illness by: -

In deciding what activities the charity should undertake the trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

The Charity operates from branches in Beswick (North/Central Manchester), Trafford, Salford Wythenshawe (South/Central Manchester) and Ashton-under-Lyne (Tameside) and through the telephone Listening Line on 0845 123 23 29.

The aim of the Charity is to achieve a high level of professionalism. Funding continues to be sought to support the central infrastructure to accelerate that process.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

2023/24

We continued to record and collect data for our statistics, making some changes in light of new GDPR legislation. In accordance with contractual arrangements we now collect data on the 9 protected characteristics under the Equalities Act which allows us to monitor who we need to try harder to reach. Our statistics on all groups relevant to our service continue to improve.

The Charity relies upon its volunteers to provide its support. 229 active volunteers gave their support during the year.

Our clients continue to match the national demographic for those with life limiting illnesses - 58% of clients are aged 70 and above. Clients with cancer, heart and respiratory disease, strokes and diabetes continue to receive the bulk of support. 63% clients are female, 36% male and 1% other. 45% identify as disabled, as well as having a life limiting illness. An increasing number of client and volunteers are from Black African, Black Caribbean, Asian and other minority ethnic groups: 21% of clients and 16% of volunteers. This reflects improvements in recruitment and awareness raising.

Referrals continue to come from a range of partners including sector partners, social prescribing teams, the NHS, social services and self-referrals.

The health and social welfare sector in which the Charity operates remains a challenging one with continuing commissioning changes in Greater Manchester. At the end of the financial year, we continue to have funding challenges with the cost of living crisis.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The attached financial statements show the current state of the finances, which the Management Committee considers to be acceptable. Total incoming resources were £444,300 (2023 - £417,040) and the net income for the year was £17,866 (2023 - £54,249). Unrestricted funds amounted to £277,720 (2023 - £276,533) of which fixed assets represented £4,358.

Principal Funding Sources

The Charity continued to work closely with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, Central, North & South Manchester, Salford and Trafford CCGs and acquired the bulk of its funding through a one year contract made with these bodies. Remaining funds stemmed from donations and fund raising.

Investment Policy

The Charity has a policy of re–investing surplus funds in the Charity in order to support service developments and improvement in line with user feedback and identified gaps in the overall provision of support services for cancer and life limiting conditions. Available funds are held at CAF Bank or in term Bonds and short term deposits.

Reserves Policy

In light of the main risks to the Charity the Management Committee has decided that the Charity should keep unrestricted funds equivalent to three months of normal operation, subject to a minimum of £60,000 This is to be reviewed on an annual basis.

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Our aims for 2023/2024

The Charity continues to deliver the objectives listed in its memorandum of association.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of accounting

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared 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 (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014; with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102); with the Charities Act 2011 and with the Companies Act 2006.

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Income

Income is included in the Statement of Financial Affairs (SOFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income, it is more than likely that the trustees will receive the funds and the amount can be measured with reasonable reliability.

Gift aid is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor has specified otherwise.

Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met.

Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.

Income from interest, royalties and dividends is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.

Expenditure

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

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. The irrecoverable element of VAT is included with the item of expense to which it relates. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.

Fundraising costs are those incurred raising income for the charity through events.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
