Each resident also has access to a dedicated Health and Wellbeing Coach and Employability Coach and has a Housing Coach who works with them on a 1-1 basis. We also hosted 5 student placements in our Accommodation Services, one psychology student and three social work students.

This year we conducted two resident surveys, and the most recent results are below:

Public Benefit

Across all the services detailed above, the charitable activities undertaken by YMCA Crewe clearly advance our charitable purposes for the public benefit. They are demonstrably pursuant to Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006, and the public benefit is clearly evidenced by positive outcomes of the wide range of the Associations services.

Financial Review

As a Registered Social Landlord, YMCA Crewe accords with both the Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing issued by the Regulator of Social Housing and the National Housing Federation’s Statement of Recommended Practice. Furthermore, YMCA Crewe is a registered limited company and therefore accounts in accordance with Companies Act 2006.

The Board of Trustees is satisfied that these accounts reflect the financial position of YMCA Crewe. The surplus for the year was £92,571 (2020-2021: £103,732), the surplus growth attributable to increase rental income and the addition of several new funding streams for our service provision. Thus, YMCA Crewe will continue to budget carefully and develop its activities within a framework of ensuring modest financial surplus year on year.

Principal Funding Sources

Incoming resources generated during the year amounted to £1,885,398 (2020-2021: £1,623,872), an increase primarily associated with the new commissioned Housing Related Support and Accommodation for 16 and 17 year olds for care leavers and children leaving care and unaccompanied asylum seeking children. Rental income received in the form of Housing Benefit for provision of rooms for people experiencing homelessness continues to be our major source of income.

The principal contract funding source is the new commissioned Housing Related Support and Accommodation for 16 and 17 years olds for the Provision of Housing and support from Cheshire East Council. Moreover, Cheshire East provides an assortment of smaller grants that facilitates further support and engagement programmes and summer holiday projects for our children and family work.

Crewe YMCA Limited Page 6 Grants from charitable trust and priv3te businesses amounts to £156,0(M) (2020-2021.. £142.000}. Children's Clubs and Parenting Groups are funded by combination of loul businesses grants and don￿lon5 and Children in Need grants.

Future Directions There is a need to develop sustainable Iraining and engogem¢nt opporluniti¢s for young people excluded from mainstream learning a[￿ to achieve better transitions from supported housing to indcpendent livRng for youtlg people.

Whilst our Accommodation Ser¥ices will continlle to be our core business both in ienns of ourttwnoverand outlay, the expansion ofDursocial enterprise scheme.

Furtbcrniore. we are beginning conversations that h3ve thc potential to expand our housing suppon offer into new areas in the county. which will open ibe door to fither OPPDrNmiti¢s in places wher¢ we eurrently have no presence. In addiiion io expanding our GLO programmts. we are beginning to deliver new areas of work. For ¢xarnpl¢. we are n￿nIng Mental Health First Aid 5cssions for the community. which we will look deliver in n¢w are&s. Alongside this, w¢ ar¢ now able to deliver Mental Health Fit5t Aid training. which will generate additional inwn)¢ as organisations and individuals book places on our courses. There 15 an increasing need for a¢¢essible mental health provision for peopl¢ of all age4 but particularly for young people, those who idenlify as mal¢, th¢ LGTBQI- Community, and young falnilies. Many of our servic¢ uscrs fall into one or more of these groups. It is therefore vithl thal we find a way to respond to this d¢v¢loping need, and providing quality training, and free-to-access services is an obvious way io achieve this. Additionally. funders are particularly interested funding work that enables thi5 kind of support. as the evidence for the p051tive impo¢t it can have on communilies is increasingly clear. We will seek further fimding around improved mental health in th¢ ¢oming year. Investment Policy Ai present the investh)cnt policy is to maximise short terni, low risk investment oppommities. Against current bank inierest levels. rhis objective has been very difficult to ackn"eve, bui ihe Board 15 satisfied with the outcome achieved. Having cortssdeTed oiheT opiions available, the Trustees consider li to be prudent thie to the volatility of markets noi to irtvesi in 51oLkb and Shares. The Board ts deicnnined to invest in further housing assets ort a T/alue for money and affordability basis and options ￿e bcing considercd. Reserves Policy Thc Board have reviewed the Reserves Policy and have reeogttised the need to esiablish an appropriate level of working capital to sustain the fiLmre opcrations and obligations in the e>ent of unforeseen reduction in its irtcome streams.

The present funding climate is such that we aim to operate a policy of maintaining reserves at a level to cover three months of committed operational cost, to act as a contingency against a sudden withdrawal of a major contract due to public expenditure cuts etc, such as our Housing Related Support contract. This would enable us to fulfil our obligations to our clients and continue to operate until alternative revenue funds can be identified, or properly wind down the work.

The Board have also examined the charity’s requirements for reserve in the light of the main risks to the organisation. They are committed to generating sufficient reserves to support current organisational obligations. The following factors were also considered in fixing the levels of reserves:

Free Reserves are represented by unrestricted funds (including designated Funds). Bearing in mind the consideration given above, it has been resolved that there should be a target of unallocated Free Reserve in the range of £300,000 to £500,000. To this end, the Board of Trustees have established a Reserves Policy that is reviewed annually to ensure that the appropriate levels are maintained.

Value for Money

YMCA Crewe has a responsibility to demonstrate that we are delivering good value for money to our residents and our stakeholders. We have developed a Value for Money policy which is compliant to HCA guidance. We aim at getting maximum benefit for the resources we have available and getting the balance right between cost and quality.

Our Value for Money policy is embedded in all areas of our operations/activities. This includes maximising income from all sources and the appropriate tendering of key contracts and giving back the savings achieved to our residents in the form of creative engagement programs.

Key Strategic Objectives

A programme will be in place to monitor and review expenditure and enable scrutiny of initiatives and deliver a minimum of 5% savings each year. The objectives include:

Value for Money Achievements in the past 12 months

Our Value for Money achievements is a mixture of cash savings and quality enhancements at nil additional cost. In total, they mark a significant progress in identifying opportunities for driving value and capturing the outcomes and benefits to prove their worth.

Statement of Compliance with Regulatory Standards

Principal risks and material uncertainties affecting YMCA Crewe are its Pension Obligations and the uncertain nature of its funding streams. The Board considers annually and on a rolling basis a three-year strategic plan which YMCA Crewe progressively implements.

The Board receives bimonthly reports from the Chief Executive Officer and the senior leadership team which sets out the risks, risk management plans and tolerances for the business.

The strategic plan includes a robust assessment of the principal risks facing YMCA Crewe, including those that would threaten its business and financial model, future performance, solvency, or liquidity. The Directors believe that YMCA Crewe is well placed to manage its business risks successfully, having considered the current economic outlook.

Accordingly, the Board believes that, considering YMCA Crewe’s current position, and subject to the principal risks faced by the business, YMCA Crewe will be able to continue in operation and to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the period up to 31st March 2023.

Directors have a reasonable expectation that YMCA Crewe has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this report.

The Board confirms that the Association has maintained compliance with the Regulator of Social Housing Governance and Viability Standard.

Self-Assessment of the Code of Governance of the National Housing Federation

YMCA Crewe maintains compliance with the code of governance of the National Housing Federation, thereby ensuring the effectiveness and excellence of the board of trustees. Examples of this include:

Future Activities

Building on the success of previous strategies, the Board, SLT and Team Leaders, have taken the opportunity to look to the future and be bold in our thinking to inform our strategic priorities for the next five years 2022-2027.

FIVE strategic goals were identified, the ‘what’, for YMCA Crewe over the next 5 years: 1. Expand our Reach 2. Expand our Housing Services 3. Build Community 4. Grow our People 5. Diversify Income.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Crewe YMCA Limited

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Crewe YMCA Limited (the ‘Association’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income and retained earnings, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies in note 1. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Board’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Board with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Board is responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Crewe YMCA Limited (continued)

Due to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to detect all fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
