Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
The trustees 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 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
To promote the welfare of elderly persons suffering from senile dementia and other forms of memory loss by the provision of advice in the care of such elderly persons and by the provision of respite care in the Borough of Spelthorne and beyond. We operate 5 days a week from St. Mary's Parish Hall in Lower Sunbury.
Our Mission
With our strong reputation and experienced team, CAMEO connects and cares for people as individuals. We provide stimulating activities for people impacted by dementia in a safe and engaging environment. We reduce social isolation and improve the wellbeing of families so people can live where they want to, for as long as they can.
We provide respite opportunities for primary carers to take care of their own mental and physical health.
Our Vision :
People with dementia, their families and friends continue to live in harmony in their local communities
Our Goals :
Accessible - CAMEO will be accessible to all, and always there when needed. Leading - CAMEO is seen as a leader in the service and support it provides. Influential - CAMEO is influential in driving improvements in dementia care
IMPACT OF COVID-19
The pandemic and subsequent lockdown had a substantial impact in the running of CAMEO charitable activities. Those were interrupted from 18th March 2020 until 2nd of November 2020 and again from 18th December 2020 to 8th March 2021; this was to comply with the lockdown rules at that time.
We regret that we could not support the family and carer of people regularly visiting the centre and offer our services to new people in need. We were sad about CAMEO's more vulnerable friends, losing their life, and trying to be close to their family, offering some comfort remotely. It is known that social isolation and mental health issues have increased during the pandemic and CAMEO's services have been in highly demand to support struggling families.
For this reason, the trustees, manager, staff and volunteer have strived to make the return of CAMEO activities possible. A bold decision was made to look for an alternative premises (previously the GREENO - Shepperton, that has been closed for a substantial longer period)
The new premises for the centre then become St. Mary Parish Hall in Lower Sunbury, this has been assessed and further investments made to re-purpose the building to the new use, particularly to allow the daily delivery of fresh and warm lunches for the residents, previously provided in the GREENO facilities by third parties and paid for by the residents.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Internal and external factors

FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial position
Deficit
As described above the global pandemic have substantially disrupted the charity activities and the income stream generated by those falls by 92% to £19,274. On the other hand, thanks to government grants and individual donations, CAMEO total income drops by only 58% to £104,752. Also given the charity period of inactivity, expenditures were contained to £132.874, 44% less than the previous year. Nevertheless, running the charity operations over the reporting period have resulted in a loss of £28,122, reducing the reserve balance by 11.77%.
Reserves policy
The reserves policy is considered annually as the trustees review the work of the charity and its forward plans. The consensus of the trustees is for CAMEO to maintain sufficient financial reserves to protect the existing level of services and remain solvent is for a period of 12 months (assuming operational expenses return to previous year level, higher capacity).
This to ensure sufficient funds are available in case of a prolonged pandemic impact on the charity operations.
Going concern
The financial statements of the charitable company have been prepared on an ongoing basis as the trustees have assessed the going concern position and have no reason to believe that there are any material uncertainties that would affect the ability of the charitable company to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
Clearly Covid-19 global pandemic is a material uncertainty, but the trustees do not find sufficient evidence to believe this will cause insolvency, also given the current level of CAMEO's reserve.
The trustees have carefully considered this, both in short and longer term, by running and review cashflow forecasts and putting in place a solid governance framework to approve any further investments or changes in the operational costs.
FUTURE PLANS
CAMEO's future plans will focus in three areas:
-
Increasing the charity accessibility with greater diversity and inclusion, improved services and enhanced digital communication.
-
Strengthening the governance framework using independent advisors and a wide range of expertise from new trustees and volunteers.
-
Achieving operational excellence through staff training and smarter way of working.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of CAMEO
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of CAMEO
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of CAMEO (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the 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.
