Office for Health Improvement and Disparities. This grant also enabled us to work with an NHS Psychologist providing much
needed mental health support to St Paul's residents and host drop-in clinlcs wlth the local Drug and Alcohol service.
St Paul's Hostel
St Paul'5 hostel is central to our service. It has facilities for 42 people plus two self-contained resettlement flats on the same
site. The chèrlty provides single room accommodation. nutritlous food and tenancy support. The Project Workers undertake
tasks to help people manage their accommodatlon and build 5elf-efficacy to establish themselves as able to live an inter-
dependent life.
st Paul's Resettlement Servlc•
St Paul's own 2 properties which are known as resettlement propertie5. These 8 beds provide the next step from the hostel,
usin9 the Housing Ready philosophy. From this Stage, staff offer Houslng Management services to help a person retain the
tenancy* building ￿5111ence and 5elf- efflcacy.
St Paul's Counselling Service
The in-house C8T tounselling service provides almost Immedlate access to an accredited counsellor for crlsls Interventbon or

nd 5 dlstrict counciIs ended on 31 March 2025. From the 1st Aprll 2025, St has been ￿plaCed by a reduced service wlth
reduced staffing. (WISSH}.
Financial Review
Fln•nclal Posltlon
High levels of occupancy and a hlgher level of grants, legacies and donation5 have helped to reduce the budgeted deficit for
this financlal year, which was welcome news. The key flnancial risk for the comino year contlnues to be the funding of those
services not funded by Flousing Beneflt Income, namely Coun5elling and Therapeutlc Servlces, Support Services and the
Kitchen Service Project. However, we have been fortunate in already securing some part fundin9 for these activities for the
next financial year.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have revlewed the charlty's needs for reserves in accordance with the guldance Issued by the Charlty
Commisslon and have considered the desirabi1Sty of holding sufficient funds to meet unexpected d15ruption of the Income
flow. The level of reserves held at the year-end were as follows-
a) Total lunds (Restricted and Unrestricted) - El,311,854 (2024.. É1,306.522}
bl Restricted funds - É85,000 12024.. £01
c} Designated fund5 - £300,000 {2024'. £300,000)
d) Non Ilquid funds (held as fixed assetslprogramme related Investments) - £505.502 (2024.. £558,980)
After making allowances for item5 B tg D above free ￿serveS amounted to £421,352 (2024.. £447.542). These free
reserves are considered reasonable and appropriate for the size of the charity.
The designed fund of E300,000 is in relation to anticipated future development costs,
On this basis, The Trustee5 conslder that the reserves are at a realistic level to ensure the effective and èfficient running of
the charlty.
Risk Management
The￿ is an up-to-date Risk Management Policy. Rlsks are identified, assessed and controlled wlth some High ProbabS11ty
and/or High Impact risks being elevated from the Leadership and Nanagement Team to the Finance Sub-committee, or the
Board of Trustees, Monitoring procedure5 have been put in place to evaluate on a continuing basis, levels of rbsk exposure
and to review at a Board (strategic) and Leadership and Management (operational) level.
