TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the period 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020 and confirm that they comply with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011, the Charity’s Bylaws, and the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP 2015).
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The Whitefield Charity SK Corporation aims to combat food poverty and address mental health needs while delivering care and compassion to the homeless, marginally homeless, vulnerable, elderly and lonely of London.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
Our main activities are the operation of our Soup Kitchen, where we provide hot and nutritious meals, unprecedented mental health support, clothing and a sense of belonging and community to approximately 150 people each day, five days per week.
c. Volunteers
Each day we utilise 5-10 volunteers to assist us in carrying out our work. The Charity is extremely grateful for the generous efforts of our volunteers who give up their time and energy to help us serve and support our guests. Annually, we utilise well over 500 volunteers. The Trustees offer their sincere gratitude to all of the volunteers who helped us throughout 2020.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
Our main activities over 2020 were feeding, clothing and assisting over 150 marginalised and vulnerable guests, many of whom are homeless, each day. In March 2020, just after the initial lockdowns due to COVID-19, we were one of only two charities that remained open each day in Central London. As a result of all of the other closures, our guest numbers increased exponentially. We converted our sit-down service for the homeless to a takeaway operation in late March. We continued with this model through the end of the year due to government restrictions.
The vast majority of the initiatives we started in 2019 were put on hold, including our employment program, mental health drop-in clinic, and most outreach services. However, one of the new programs that we started was a food delivery service for those community members that were vulnerable and had been dissuaded from leaving their homes. In collaboration with several of our major corporate sponsors, we began a meal delivery service that targeted the elderly and less mobile. At one point, we delivered food as far away as Enfield from our base on Tottenham Court Road.
One of the wonderful people we were able to reach was a 55-year old American woman who has lived in England for the last 20 years. She suffers from severe mental health issues and trauma related to her childhood. She has been homeless several times over the years. With the food deliveries, we were able to interact with her regularly. We eventually discovered that she had a family member in California looking for her. Our team was able to reconnect the two of them after more than 20 years with no contact. She now has plans to return to the United States.
Financial review
a. Going concern
As we were one of the only charities in Central London operating and feeding the homeless each day in 2020 for several months, we applied for and were successful with funding from several grant-making bodies. Demand for our services has increased considerably. However, after reviewing future plans, expected income and expenditure in 2020 and allowing for changes to service provision due to COVID-19, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Reserves policy
The Charity will maintain in reserve an average of six months' operating expenses based on the year's budget. Amounts above that will be allocated to a capital fund in anticipation of future projects that help the Charity expand our space, support more beneficiaries and provide more services to the growing number of people that the pandemic has affected.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
c. Financial summary
Income for the year totalled £451,451 (2019: £222,708), of which £41,600 (2019: £45,546) related to restricted funds.
At the balance sheet date, the Charity had restricted fund balances of £67,754 (2019: £46,087), and general funds totalling £325,964 (2019: £202,288).
In line with the reserves policy, the Trustees have designated general funds in excess of 6 months’ expenditure to a Capital Fund (for future projects). At the balance sheet date, £179,307 (2019: £113,054) was held in the Capital Fund.
d. COVID-19
COVID-19 has had a devastating effect on the homeless community in London. Many small charities have closed and will never re-open. That has caused the number of people we serve to increase exponentially. We now help 150 people each day, on average, and we expect that number to grow as there is more need for the limited services that remain. We have seen a dramatic increase in the number of pension age people coming by the Soup Kitchen for food and many people who aren't homeless but are just as desperate for a meal.
Our drop-in mental health clinic was suspended because of distancing guidelines; however, we expect to restart those sessions imminently. Likewise, our clothing store was closed, but we have resumed the distribution of essential clothing for those that need it.
We have slowly seen the return of our corporate volunteers as more and more companies have allowed their employees to resume their volunteering initiatives.
The Trustees continue to monitor expenditure and source donated items where possible.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
Whitefield Charity SK Corporation is a registered charity, number 1051770, and is constituted under its by-laws, amended and restated on 12 May 2016.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the by-laws.

The Trustees give their time freely and the pay of the Director is set by the Trustees (and subject to annual review).
d. Financial risk management

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the . 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Whitefield Charity SK Corporation ('the Charity')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2020.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent Examiner's Statement
Since the Charity'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 Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.

WHITEFIELD CHARITY SK CORPORATION
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

WHITEFIELD CHARITY SK CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1. General information
Whitefield Charity SK Corporation is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission in England and Wales. The Charity's aim is to combat food poverty as set out in the Trustees' Report.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Whitefield Charity SK Corporation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
The financial statements are preapred and presented in Sterling, the functional curtrency of the Charity, and rounded to the nearest £.
2.2 Going concern
The Charity is reliant upon donation income to fund its activities, and in particular donations from individuals and corporate entities. Since the balance sheet date, operations have been impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19, resulting in changes to the way that the Charity carries out its activities.
Based on the reassessment of income levels and future plans of the Charity, together with consideration of the cash balances and reserves held at the balance sheet date, the Trustees consider that there is no material uncertainty regarding the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern and consequently believe that the financial statements are appropriately prepared on such a basis.
The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
Page 11
WHITEFIELD CHARITY SK CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
2.4 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold.
Where the donated good is a fixed asset, it is measured at fair value, unless it is impractical to measure this reliably, in which case the cost of the item to the donor should be used. The gain is recognised as income from donations and a corresponding amount is included in the appropriate fixed asset class and depreciated over the useful economic life in accordance with the Charity's accounting policies.
On receipt, donated professional services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity which is the amount it would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
Page 12
WHITEFIELD CHARITY SK CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.6 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
- Property improvements 10% reducing balance - Kitchen equipment 20% reducing balance
2.8 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
2.9 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
2.11 Financial instruments
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.12 Pensions
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
