Trustees' Report
for the Year Ended 30 March 2024
PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR 2023/24
The 23/24 financial year was Jericho’s 30th year of trading since the charity was incorporated in August 2003. The highlight of the year was our 30th Birthday celebration event in October which was well attended by a range of funders, supporters, staff and beneficiaries. This was an amazing opportunity to celebrate all we have achieved together over the years, and we are particularly grateful to our keynote speakers, West Midlands Mayor Andy Street, Paul Fenton from Paul Hamlyn Foundation and Tina Swani from Sutton Coldfield Charitable Trust who all gave inspirational messages.
Our social impact in 23/24 increased significantly compared to the previous year. We supported 128 beneficiaries (compared with 136 in FY22/23), of whom 100 worked in our social enterprises, completing 4920 days of supported work experience. Around 84% of all completers progressed into a positive outcome and we evidenced a total social value of £1.725m compared with £1.31m in FY22/23.
Financially it was another reasonable year with fundraising performing very well and compensating for some challenges within the social enterprises. Overall, we achieved our challenging break-even budget.
The main challenges in the year related directly or indirectly to the ongoing ‘Cost of Living Crisis’. We were adversely affected by further significant increases in staff and beneficiary wages, utilities and materials costs. We also experienced some delays in filling up some of our newly completed residential accommodation which impacted on budgeted property income. Wood Shack and Jericho Cleaning performed relatively poorly in the year and one of our key Jericho Cleaning customers went into administration leaving us with a significant unpaid debt. Meanwhile Birmingham City Council issued a section 114 notice, effectively declaring bankruptcy, which was probably connected in part to their request to increase our rent at ReUsers by 60%, an issue that thankfully has since been resolved. Overall there were times during the middle of the year where it felt like we were facing a tidal wave of adversity
However, there were also some great encouragements in the year. Most importantly we secured three year extensions to funding for both our modern slavery and young people’s programmes. These programmes are the foundation of Jericho’s work, and we are hugely grateful to our funders for trusting us with another three years of support.
In addition, we were delighted to see the Change Kitchen team moved back into their newly completed kitchen and delivered a record year with income in excess of £300k, 75 tonnes of surplus food diverted from landfill and 8120 free meals provided for those in food poverty. We were also able to purchase two new vans for Wood Shack which will enable us to collect more waste wood in each collection going forward. We benefitted from several days of support from some of our amazing corporate partners who helped with garden makeovers and furniture assembly at our accommodation sites. We were also delighted to welcome two of our brilliant business managers back from maternity leave.
Our trustee board continues to function well, providing accountability, guidance and support to our executive team. This year we said goodbye to our Ellie Searley following 6 years of faithful service bringing both wisdom and legal expertise to the board. We plan to recruit a replacement in the coming year but meanwhile the remaining six trustees are well equipped to help take Jericho forward.
Towards the end of the year, we held an away day for trustees and members or the senior management team to consider the future strategic direction of Jericho. The detail plan is still in preparation but key objectives for the coming years will include diversification of our fundraising income streams, growth in our social enterprise contribution to circa £400k per year, increasing in our social impact through the addition of some higher volume, lower unit cost interventions, becoming a ‘best in class’ employer and reducing our carbon emissions through investing in our buildings.
Objectives and Activities
The objects and mission statement as set out in the Memorandum of Association are:-
-
To promote the relief of those in need, hardship, distress or other disadvantage due to youth, age, financial hardship, poverty, illness, disability or homelessness.
-
To promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society.
For the purpose of this clause 'socially excluded' means being excluded from society, or parts of society, as a result of one of more of the following factors: unemployment; financial hardship; youth or old age; ill health (physical or mental); substance abuse or dependency including alcohol and drugs; poor educational or skills attainment; relationship and family breakdown; poor housing; crime (either as a victim of crime or as an offender rehabilitating into society).

-
To pursue any other charitable purpose which the charity thinks fit for pursuit, in conjunction with any of the charitable purposes aforesaid which are pursued under a Christian ethos.
Mission Statement
Jericho gives the people who need it most, the break they need to feel and be more employable.
How our activities deliver public benefit
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, 'Charities and Public Benefit'. Our main activities and who we try to help are described above. Our charitable activities focus on helping disadvantaged people to find solution to the problems they face and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit.

Financial Review
Income for the year amounted to £2,141,057 (2023: £2,312,264), whilst expenditure amounted to £2,140,756 (2023: £2,242,457). This gave rise to a surplus of £301 (2023: £69,807) and an increase in unrestricted funds for the year to £788,739 as shown on the Statement of Financial Activities.
Total funds carried forward at 30 March 2024 are £908,739 (2023: £908,438).

for the Year Ended 30 March 2024
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have agreed a policy to aim towards maintaining reserves at a minimum level of 3 months' essential expenditure and a maximum of 6 months' expenditure. This will allow the charity to be resilient, properly manage its finances and deal with future funding issues. This means the required level of reserves is between £551,000 and £1,102,000. The Trustees have also decided that the best measure of reserves for the Charity is the unrestricted funds which amounted to £788,739.
Principal Funding Sources
During the year we received £859,993 (2023: £966,543) to provide focussed support for our clients. This funding used to be primarily from statutory sources, but is now mainly grant making trusts.
Social Enterprise / trading income amounted to £1,281,064 (2023: £1,345,721), which included Wood Recycling, ReUse, and Cleaning activities. These operations provide the supported work placements for clients.
We would like to thank all of the many individuals, churches, companies and grant making trusts that funded our work during the course of the year. This includes the following:
Baron Davenport's Charity Charles Brotherton Trust Communities and Housing Investment Consortium Limited Chiltern Railways Edgar E Lawley Foundation Edward and Dorothy Cadbury Trust Equans Equistone Partners Europe Ltd Esmee Fairbairn Foundation GJW Turner Trust Garfield Weston Foundation Glasspool Charity Trust Goldieslie Lodge Benevolent Fund Hodge Foundation Hortons Estates Landau Lord Barnaby's Foundation Miss Albright Grimley Charity National Grid National Lottery Community Fund - Awards for All National Lottery Community Fund - Reaching Communities Paul Hamlyn Foundation Resonance Richard Kilcuppe's Charity Rotary Club of Moseley & Sparkbrook Charity Skipton Charitable Foundation Solihull School Sutton Coldfield Baptist Church Sutton Coldfield Charitable Trust Sutton Coldfield Town Council Team ITG The Balcombe Charitable Trust The Charles Plater Trust The Eveson Charitable Trust The George Henry Collins Charity The Gosling Foundation The Grimmitt Trust The Haramead Trust The Henry Smith Charity The Hobson Charity The Joseph Hopkins & Henry James Sayer Charity The Lillie C Johnson Charitable Trust

Trustees' Report
Risk Management
All significant activities undertaken are subject to a risk review as part of initial project assessments and implementation. Major risks are identified and their potential impact and likelihood evaluated. These risks are kept under regular review by the Senior Management Team and the Trustees to satisfy themselves that adequate systems and procedures are in place to manage the identified risks. Where appropriate, the risks are covered by insurance.
The following framework is central to ensuring adequate risk assurance:-
o Regular monitoring of major risks and development of action plans o Embedding risk identification and assessment within operating procedures o A clear structure of delegated authority and control o Review of key systems and procedures
o Regular summary reports on risk management to the Trustees.
In assessing risk, the Trustees recognise that some areas of our work require the acceptance and management of risk if our key objectives are to be achieved.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The 3 main risks identified last year and the mitigating actions taken are:
Cost of living' crisis
Our biggest risk during the year was the cost-of-living crisis which put pressure on all of our costs including utility bills, wage costs and materials costs. We managed this through careful forecasting and tight financial management and were also able to access several cost-of-living related grant programmes.
Challenging Fundraising climate
The fundraising climate became considerably tighter during the year with more charities applying for more money from the same funders with less to give away due to poorer investment returns. We managed this risk by expanding our fundraising team to include a fundraising assistant and by releasing one of our senior managers to focus more time on corporate partnerships and individual giving. By the end of the financial year we had managed to exceed our fundraising target by a reasonable margin
Health and Safety risks
Health and Safety became a much bigger risk during the pandemic so in the last year we have continued to mitigate these risks by increased health and safety manager hours, intensive staff training and provision of 'best in class' Covid safety measures on all of our sites.
Future Plans
During the year we have continued to implement the strategic plan that was developed previously and is based on the following principles:
Replicate where possible some of our existing social enterprises into nearby geographic locations. Broaden the offer of existing SE’s to include new goods and services.
Focus on growing social impact - not turnover, headcount or outputs – use the Social Value Portal to measure success.
Invest in the right people in the right places to build a more resilient staffing structure and trustee board.
ESG focus – we will seek to maximise the benefit to Jericho of the increasing prioritisation of Environmental, Social and Governance issues in the corporate/business worlds through a targeted corporate engagement and fundraising programme.
Towards the end of the year, we held an away day for trustees and members or the senior management team to consider the future strategic direction of Jericho. As noted above the detailed plan is still in preparation but key objectives for the coming years will include diversification of our fundraising income streams, growth in our social enterprise contribution to circa £400k per year, increasing in our social impact through the addition of some higher volume, lower unit cost interventions, becoming a ‘best in class’ employer and reducing our carbon emissions through investing in our buildings.

Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 18 August 1993 and registered as a charity on 28 April 1994. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association that established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 per member.
Method of appointment of Directors and members
The Directors of the charity are the charity's trustees as defined by section 177 of the Charities Act 2011. The minimum numbers of directors is three. One third of the Directors come up for re-election every three years. The voting takes place at the AGM.
Any person wishing to become a member of the charity may apply to the charity in the form required by the Directors and must be approved by the Directors. The Directors may only refuse an application for membership if, acting reasonably and properly, they consider it to be in the best interests of the charity to refuse the application. If membership is granted to individuals or organisations which are not also Directors, an amendment to the Articles of Association of the charity will be required.
Induction and Training of Directors
New Directors are briefed on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Board of Directors and its decision-making processes, future plans and recent financial performance. All Directors are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role.
Organisational Structure & Decision Making
The Directors manage the business of the charity and may exercise all the powers of the charity unless they are subject to any restrictions imposed by the Companies Act, or the articles, or any special resolution. The Directors meet a minimum of four times a year to consider major decisions of the charity. There are currently no sub-committees of the Board of Directors.
The Chief Executive is responsible for the day-to-day management of the charity and for implementing policies agreed by the Directors. The Chief Executive is assisted by a group of senior managers (the Senior Management Team).
TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Charity Law and Company Law require the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and group as at the end of the financial year and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure for that year. 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 Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to 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.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
-
there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and
-
the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of The Jericho Foundation
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Jericho Foundation (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 30 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 30 March 2024 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable 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 trustees' 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 charitable 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 trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
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.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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:
-
the information given in the Trustees' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of The Jericho Foundation
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
-We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal control.
-
We review financial statement disclosures and undertake testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
-
We perform audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business.
-
We evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
We enquire of management around actual and potential litigation and claims.
-
We conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the union's ability to continue as a going concern.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable 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 charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
