This could be shopping, participating in leisure pursuits or meeting with friends. As part of this mission, we provide mobility scooters, wheelchairs and walking aids, daily living aids maintained to the highest standard." ## **Stockton Shopmobility Ltd are core funded by** **2** ## **Stockton Shopmobility Limited Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015). ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Principle objectives, activities and achievements for the public benefit** The principal activity of the business continues to remain the hiring of disability equipment and the selling of disability aids and equipment. We strive to supply an extensive range of items, from small items like walking sticks and shower stools to larger items, such as scooters, riser recliner chairs and profiling beds . Profits from Shopmobility retail are, as always, ploughed back into improving our services and updating our fleet of hire equipment. Shopmobility also offers driver training through our Scoot Safe Campaign, as well as servicing and repair of vehicles. Looking after customers is very important to Stockton Shopmobility Ltd and we aim to find the right product to meet the individual needs of the customer. Our aim is to provide quality services as reasonable prices. Stockton Borough Council hosts several major events in and around the High Street throughout the year and mobility hire equipment is available for these events wherever possible. The main achievements of the charity have been the increased independence for our clients using the hired mobility equipment. It enables clients to shop, meet friends for coffee or lunch, or to simply enjoy being out the house for a while. Enabling people to get out and about brings revenue to businesses in the town centre, We are gaining a reputation for fair prices for our retail equipment, meaning that customers have a better chance of affording their own equipment. The Trustees have had due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit. ## **Reserves Policy** The Trustees believe that the Charity should hold financial reserves because it has no endowment funding and is entirely dependent upon donor funding from year to year which is inevitably subject to fluctuation and it needs to ensure that it can meet its contractual liabilities as they fall due. In light of the above, the Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted reserves should be no less than three months of unrestricted expenditure. This would equate to and has been set at £35.000 currently total unrestricted reserves stand at £128,255 . Reserve income will be held in a bank account considered to pay the most favourable interest rates and will be reviewed annually. 3 ## **Stockton Shopmobility Limited** ## **Stockton Shopmobility Limited** ## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** **FUTURE PLANS -** Stockton Shopmobility Limited remains, as always, committed to its core purpose of providing, for hire, our disability equipment to people of all ages that have mobility problems, helping them achieve a better level of independence. The last year of trading has been very challenging. We operate in a sector which has been affected by the Covid 19 world pandemic. The Company has been closed during the respective lockdown periods and the staff furloughed. Notwithstanding the pandemic the staff have responded well and the furlough scheme has worked efficiently. Operating under the banner of Stockton Shopmobility Centre has had a positive effect on our retail sales which continue to display an encouraging trend even during the Covid health crisis. The Company has benefitted from consumer saving trends during lockdown. Profits from these sales continue to be reinvested back into the Company, which has enabled us to review our entire hire-fleet, as well as being able to carry more stock, giving customers a better informed choice. Our long-term aim remains the same, to be self-sustaining and provide a quality service in both our retail outlet and the Shopmobility scheme. Safety of both our clients and the general public remains a priority with us. We will endeavour to take our Scoot Safe Campaign out into the community, so continuing to educate both mobility scooter users and the general public. Our long- term future has been the subject of much debate over the last year as funding from the local Authority has only been granted on a reducing level. However, we are pleased to say that following a meeting with council officers we are endeavouring to secure further funding by constructing a structured business plan with their input and support. This collaboration has also included the development of a marketing and publicity campaign. Other funding will continue to be sought, but at the time of writing, we still do not fall within current criteria requirements and there are limited options due to challenging economic conditions. That said, we continue to be reasonably successful with retail sales and are concentrating on this to enable us to plough profits back into the Charity. This year the Charity shows an overall net profit of £4,648 in 2021 as opposed to a negative figure of £7,701 loss in 2020. Every effort will be made to find ways to carry our worthwhile and much needed service to our clients. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. A board of six trustee directors governs the charity, and the Manager carries out the day to day running of the service and manages the strategic development of the organisation. In addition, there are co-opted, non-voting members, who attend board meetings in an advisory capacity, who represent some of our partners such as Stockton Borough Council. 4 ## **Stockton Shopmobility Limited Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Induction and training of new trustees** All trustees receive a full induction pack, which outlines their duties and responsibilities. This includes information about the Charity Commission rules and regulations, company policies and procedures, and good practice in governance. Mr Michael Womphrey has a professional background in law and human resource management and provides training for all trustees of the company and employment law and good governance. ## **Risk management** The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. In deciding what constitutes a risk, the trustees considered the following headings:- - Governance and Management - Operational risk - Financial risk - Environmental/External Factors - Compliance Risk (Law and regulation) Within each heading the trustees identified the potential risk to the charity, the appropriate control measures needed to manage the identified risk and an assessment of the risk level when those control measures have been applied. The trustees have given particular consideration to the financial risks to the charity and have prepared a Reserves policy to ensure that its contractual obligations can always be met. The trustees will review the Risk Management Strategy annually. ## 5 ## **Stockton Shopmobility Limited Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS** **Registered Company number** 03061335 (England and Wales) **Registered Charity number** 1048199 **Registered office** 81 High Street Castlegate Centre Stockton on Tees TS18 1AF ## **Trustees** M Womphrey (Chair) L Osborne (Vice Chair) S Ewing (Resigned on 20/12/20) Councillor A McCoy A Osborne ## **Board Members** Councillor M Javed (Stockton Borough Council) **Company Secretary** D P Barwick ## **Independent examiner** Anderson Barrowcliff LLP Chartered Accountants 3 Kingfisher Court Bowesfield Park Stockton on Tees TS18 3EX ## **Bankers** HSBC Bank plc 136 High Street Stockton on Tees TS18 1LR This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 6 ## **MANUEL WHEELCHAIRS HIRE STATISTICS** ||||| |---|---|---|---| |**APRIL**|**201**7**-20**18
