## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

Any charitable purpose for the benefit of the community in Burmantofts and its vicinity within the City of Leeds and throughout the UK, in particular the advancement of education, the protection and preservation of good health and the relief of poverty, sickness and distress. 

## **The charity's main activities** 

1.       Providing a free, confidential and independent debt advice service. 

2.       Providing a free, confidential and independent financial capability service. 

3.       Providing a free, confidential and independent benefits assistance service. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Like other charitable organisations we have been significantly affected the pandemic which swept the world in 2020. We have been heavily restricted in our face to face service and the vast majority of our support to clients has been over the telephone although we have tried to retain some face to face contact for very vulnerable clients when the regulations have allowed us to do so. Our office was closed for much of the first lockdown but since then we have maintained an office presence with a restricted rota of staff to maintain social distancing. Most of our staff have been working from home since March ’20 and home working is now part of our long term accommodation strategy. Our funders have relaxed their targets and requirements to fit in with this new way of working. 

Our staffing level fell significantly over the summer as demand dropped drastically; at one time down to seven staff. However, as demand rose and emergency funding was obtained we recruited heavily in the autumn and finished the year with 22 staff members. 

The Money and Pensions Service continued to fund the face to face Debt Advice Project which ran until the end of March 2018 when they announced that we would receive an annual rolling contract after March 2018 until future procurement arrangements are implemented. The 2020/21 contract runs out on 31st March 2021, a contract for 2021/22 is expected shortly. Our allowance was increased to 3fte advisers from October 2019 and a further 0.4fte from April 2020. In November 2020 we obtained funding for a trainee debt adviser. The contract runs from December 2020 until November 2021. 

In November 2015 we learnt that the Big Lottery Fund was funding the Money Buddies project with a grant of £472,245 over 5 years starting in December 2015. This funding has been used to consolidate the Money Buddy service during the pandemic in 2020 and ended at the end of November 2020. However there was a surplus on the year and we gained permission to continue the project until March 31st 2021. We are working to obtain further funding for the Money Buddy service from April 2021. 

As the pandemic hit as the Area Committees were making decisions on funding Money Buddies for 2020/21, a lot of funding was lost. Even the funding that was approved was not activated as the Council Hubs were closed. When the Hubs did reopen they were restricted to internal Council services only. Towards the end of the year we started some pilot schemes in non-Council locations with some success. We hope to continue these in 2021. We are planning to approach Area Committees to approve Money Buddy services for 2021/22 to start when regulations allow.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020 

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

In March 2017 we received funding from Leeds City Council to recommence and further develop our Benefit Buddy project. This was expected to run for two years until March 2019 but we had funding to extend the end date until June 2019. The project was paused at this time and a Big Lottery application was developed to obtain funding to continue this project for a further 3 years. We were successful in passing to Stage 2 of the application process and a Stage 2 application was sent to the National Lottery in December 2020. This is currently being considered. 

Given the situation with the pandemic and our loss of funding we applied to several funders for emergency Covid-19 funding. We were successful in several bids:- CAF (£10,000); The Resilience Fund (£10,000); National Lottery (£78,980); Jimbo’s Fund (£20,000); local councillors (£1,200). 

We also applied for longer term funding and were awarded a 2 year grant agreement to provide energy advice through the Energy Redress scheme. This started in November 2020 and will run until October 2022. We had a Quality Mark inspection in May 2019 and as a result regained our AQS Quality Mark at General Help with Casework for 2 years so this will need to be renewed by a further Audit in May 2021 to ensure that we are giving an excellent service to our clients. This has now been scheduled for 6th May 2021. 

The Board of Trustees continued to work effectively in 2020. We had a skills audit in 2020 which identified some gaps. We are looking to recruit further Trustees to fill these gaps along with developing a training programme for the current Trustees. We currently have 8 Trustees. 

The Board of Trustees and the BCP staff are continuing to actively seek further funding for 2021/22. The future of the Centre has been secured until at least December 2021. Several funding bids are been developed for further long term funding and the Board of Trustees are very confident that this will be achieved. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the year was £104,972, including net income of £11,485 on unrestricted funds and net income of £93,487 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £40,145. 

The trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (the free reserves) held by the charity should be at least £39,435 as a minimum level regarding covering the charity's liabilities if it had to close. The trustees will review this figure annually. The trustees have also put in place an upper limit of 6 months of the annual expenditure. This equates to £156,302 based on the 2020 running costs.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

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 accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Burmantofts Community Projects 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2020, which are set out on pages 7 to 14. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of  which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

- 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## Notes to the accounts 

for the year ended 31 December 2020 

## **1 Accounting policies**

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
