Organisational Structure and Decision Making

The charity is controlled by the Board of Trustees which is independent. Board members receive no remuneration for their involvement. Day-to-day operations are conducted by full and part-time staff, led by a Chief Executive. The Trustee Board held 7 Meetings during the year, as well as our AGM. Trustees specify the level of delegated responsibility of staff.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Trustees review the major risks the charity face and believe that maintaining a sufficient level of reserves will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. Combined with income maximisation and income diversification it means that the overall financial position of the charity remains as sound as can be expected in the current financial climate.

During the year the Trustees began the systematic review of policies and Processes which contribute to mitigating the risks. This year the review has included consideration of

• ° Pay policy * Trustee code of conduct e Conflict of interest policy

• e Trustee recruitment and retention policy e Data Protection Policy e Volunteer Recruitment policy e Ex-offenders Volunteering policy e Revised recruitment policy

The board also reviewed its business continuity framework and risk register. In reviewing the Risk Register the Board consider and agreed the Strategic risks facing CLB; identified actions to mitigate strategic risks where missing and considered priority actions required for non-strategic risks. As part of this exercise the Board identified an owner for each risk; considered capacity and identified timescales for progression of outstanding items; agreed the frequency for the Board to review the risk register ongoing (and/or delegate arrangements for review between Board review).

We remain committed to growing our audience across all communication platforms and we are pleased to report that we have achieved growth on a number of platforms this year including Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin.

Funding and Investment

Our funding work remains important to ensuring that the sector continues to thrive in Bromley. We undertake horizon scanning and signposting to ensure the sector receives timely information about funding opportunities; provide advice on bid-writing and references for local organisations to fundraising organisations; as well as leading on and facilitating sector-wide bids to attract and secure inward investment into the Borough.

This year, we worked on several collaborative bids, hosted workshops on different funding streams, promoted opportunities and advised charities on their bids. This resulted in new investment to the sector from a number of different funders.

Much of this work is driven by collaborative partnership work and so we are grateful for the support of South East London Community Energy (SELCE), the London Borough of Bromley and the King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

We continue to be the Local Trusted Organisation (LTO or accountable body) for the Mottingham Big Local Refocused project. This enables the community to access funding from the Big Lottery Fund to develop and support projects and interventions which meet community priorities.

Achievements include:

• e Worked in partnership on 4 collaborative funding bids. This included work on the development of the successful King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust ~ Volunteering without barriers application for £550,000.

• e Supported 15 unique bids with a 100% success rate with three unique funders namely CW+/DHS Charities Together /NHS England, London Marathon Found. Active Spaces and the Innovation Fund.

• e Secured £732,346 new investment into local organisations. The result is that we exceeded our target of £1.2 million investment into the Borough during the life of the contract, with £1,868,742.00 (24/25) secured to date.

• ° The total value of funding requested via CLB’s Award Force Platform during the year amounted to £1,403,524.

Volunteer Support

Our service continues to encourage volunteering and support volunteering involving organisations. We operate the volunteer centre for the borough. This provides practical advice and guidance on all aspects of volunteering: raises awareness of the benefits of volunteering; provides a database of current volunteering opportunities and a volunteer online portal and phone line for peaple looking to volunteer.

This year has seen the development of eur outreach, and our Volunteer Fairs continue to prove popular both with volunteer involving organisations offering opportunities and with

prospective volunteers. Our showcase event at the Glades was particularly well received, attracting 16 organisations and over 100 individuals seeking volunteering opportunities.

Achievements include:

• e Our brokerage service continues to achieve a high placement rate with an average 45% individuals registered with us placed with an organisation.

Strategic Partnership and Voice

As a service we strive to facilitate and develop the voluntary sector role in strategic partnerships throughout the borough and local NHS. In part this is achieved by ensuring that the sector is represented by the Voluntary Sector Strategic Network (‘VSSN’), a network of organisations for engagement and influencing key borough and multi-borough partnerships and at local forums and boards.

We also strive to use member intelligence and knowledge to influence policy and practice.

During the year we:

• e Undertook research into the State of the Voluntary Sector in Bromley and publicised the findings and resulting recommendations.

Provided sector representation and voice on:

Despite financial challenges, she has continued to leverage funding to sustain sector activities and has worked on providing free or reducedrate access to NHS estates for VCSEs. She has:

• « Secured and developed a Micro-Grassroots Capacity & Skills Building grant fund.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

We are a lean organisation and continue to work hard to keep costs within budgets at a time of growing cost pressures. At the same time, we have also worked hard to secure external investment to support the delivery of services to our sector. AS highlighted above, this work resulted in substantial investment in the Mottingham area, from the Innovation Fund and from the Integrated Care System to develop and deliver other projects.

We continue to obtain our core funding from the London Borough of Bromley. However, we remain committed to diversifying our sources of funding and are pleased that this year we secured funds from ten different funding sources. It is essential to recognise that the core funding enabled us to secure 79.1% of our funding in 2024/25 from other sources. Overall income decreased from £859,412 to £746,119 following successive years of incame growth.

AS a service, we are extremely aware of the financial pressures experienced by our funders and, as such, the trustees want to thank our core funders, the London Borough of Bromley, for their continued support.

The strategy of the organisation continues to be to seek core funding from the local authority and to enable on-going development through project funding from large funders such as the Big Lottery and charitable trusts.

8

Our aim is to ensure that we can give confidence to stakeholders that the charity's finances are being well managed. Importantly our financial performance over recent years has allowed the organisation to build our reserves to a healthy level. We will continue to build on this sound foundation

Income Resource

Income for the year was £746,119.

Resources Expended

Expenditure during the fiscal year was £533,441.

Summary Position

Our position at the end of the year showed net income of £212,678. Whilst this is a healthy balance, much of this relates to restricted funding.

Reserves

The Unrestricted Reserves carried forward of £174,534 represents an increase on the previous year (£165,023) and show that the Trustees’ plans set out in previous Annual Reports to increase our reserves are on target.

investment Policy

Community Links Bromley continues its practice of prudently maximising all potential sources of revenue by keeping under review its banking arrangements and interest rates on a regular basis.

Reserves Policy

The levels of reserves held are regularly reviewed to ensure the charity is able to meet its obligations. A target of three months casts running costs has been set. We are pleased to have achieved this figure.

To mitigate future uncertainty the framework for this reserves policy is currently under review by the Board. This is for two reasons. Firstly angoing costs of services and staffing due to cost of living pressures. Secondly, the Board are also mindful that the service may face a possible change in accommodation or a potential increase in rental costs to as the service current lease ends in October of this year.

g

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Our financial performance over recent years has allowed the organisation to build our reserves to a healthy level. We will continue to build on this sound foundation.

Key developments planned for the year ahead include:

• Develop and agree an ambitious 5-year Strategic Development Plan

• Maintain systems and evidence to obtain NAVCA Local Infrastructure

• Recruit a Grassroots Development Worker

• Continue to grow and diversify income streams

• Work with stakeholders and partnership and the sector to implement our State of the Sector Bromley Report action plan.
