YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The Trustees, who are also directors of the charitable company (the charity), present their report and the financial for the year ended 31 March 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and 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).

PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES

CRASH is a unique, practical charity supported by the construction and property industry to help homelessness charities and hospices with vital construction projects, to create places that care for people. These construction projects for hospices can include buildings and grounds that offer day services and / or residential care, and for homelessness charities they include emergency night shelters, daycentres, hostels and move on accommodation.

CRASH acts as a conduit between companies and individuals from the construction industry, who donate their professional expertise and construction products, and the homelessness and hospice charities that benefit from their specialised help. CRASH is also a grant awarding charity and makes grants to facilitate the construction projects of homelessness and hospice charities. CRASH is the only charity in the UK providing this kind of specialised and practical construction support to these two sectors.

CRASH was founded by Tony Denison in 1991 and registered as a charity in 1996 with the aim of helping rough sleepers and single homeless people in London. It did this by working with construction and property companies and homelessness agencies in London to identify and convert properties into short-term emergency night shelters. Over the years, CRASH has developed and now helps to improve and refurbish buildings across the UK for a variety of adult people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. CRASH only works with homelessness charities that are registered with the Charity Commission and providing services to single homeless people over the age of 18.

In 2015 the Trustees agreed that the charity was sufficiently established to widen its beneficiary base. The Trustees were resolute that the service CRASH offered would remain the same, as that is where its expertise lies, but that it would offer this help to an additional sector whose buildings were essential and integral to the help and services that they delivered to vulnerable people. After research and discussion, the Trustees decided that the additional beneficiary sector would be hospice charities in the UK that are registered with the Charity Commission.

The Articles of Association for CRASH were changed accordingly as was the name of the charity to reflect this additional beneficiary group and permission for the change in objects was granted by the Charity Commission in 2015.

The companies that become corporate Patrons of CRASH demonstrate their dedication to social impact and value and of professional expertise and materials to improve buildings and create places that are safe, welcoming and inspiring for people, whether they are homeless or suffering from life limiting illnesses. It is the loyalty and generosity of our corporate patron companies that allows CRASH to continue its practical and focussed work to help people when they are at their most vulnerable, and we are very grateful for their loyal and generous support.

ACTIVITIES

Support and assistance

Many Patrons, in addition to their annual donation, donate the time of their professional staff and/or donate construction products which directly help homelessness and hospice charities and CRASH. These Gifts-In-Kind are the principal source of support that CRASH provides to homelessness and hospice charities.

Once again during the year CRASH was able to help a small number of charities to fully understand the potential consequences of purchasing buildings or signing new leases. CRASH found charities often did not understand the full ramifications of what they was in them. The visit of construction professionals organised by CRASH, and the follow up report written for the charities, gave Trustees and senior management the information they needed to make informed decisions. While the reported Gift in Kind value for this kind of help is relatively small, the value of it when it helps a charity to avoid taking on a building that will require expensive renovation that could be crippling to the organisation, is massive. This is a small but important part of the help that CRASH can offer.

In 2022-23 CRASH received gifts-in-kind worth £359,411 (2022: £217,871). £308,120 was provided to projects as shown above, an increase of 84% compared to the prior year at £167,397, as the 2 prior years had been impacted by reduced project activity due to COVID. £51,291 was for the support of CRASH for Marketing and Media related services (2022: £50,474).

How our activities deliver public benefit

The Trustees have taken account of the Charity

s and sourcing and providing free professional expertise and construction products satisfies the public benefit requirement.

Grant making policy

Income received from corporate Patrons, fundraising events and individual donations may be given as grants to help a project obtain vital construction related services or construction products that cannot be provided by CRASH as a gift-inkind. All charities that apply to CRASH for help and meet the criteria are visited as part of the application process. During the year, seconded professionals from Arcadis attended the visits and provided a technical report to CRASH regarding the construction challenges and requirements involved. All grants are pledged initially for 6 months. If they are not claimed in that time CRASH will consider an extension based on the reasons that have prevented the benefitting charity from drawing down the grant.

Examples of projects completed by CRASH during 2022-23:

Crawley Open House West Sussex

Crawley Open House has been supporting homeless and vulnerable people in West Sussex since 1994. The charity helps people suffering the effects of homelessness, unemployment, discrimination and other forms of social exclusion. They run a hostel, three move-on houses and a day centre. CRASH was asked to help them with designing and developing their new Resource Centre.

The day centre runs 365 days a year with almost 17,000 visits annually. Guests can have a meal, a shower, watch TV, join a class for literacy, art, cooking or exercise, or get a haircut. They also offer housing, health and financial advice, and and trained counsellors are available.

The plan for the Resource Centre, which is located just across the road from the day centre, is to offer individuals training, that will build skills and confidence to those who want to find employment. The aims for this building were to:

The charity had purchased a light industrial unit which had previously been a takeaway kitchen and was in a dire condition. The asbestos roof needed replacing, the building needed stripping back to a shell, and architects needed to create a design to provide new partition walls and flooring to create the flexible spaces need to maximise the use of the building. Gas pipes needed relocating and a heating system installed. The building required a complete re-design and refurbishment to provide Crawley Open House with a safe, appropriate environment for the new services they wanted to provide.

CRASH Corporate Patron Arcadis made the initial project visit and produced a report and provided cost consultancy services. Fellow Patrons Ben Adams Architects undertook the architectural design for the project and AECOM provided structural engineering. Cundall donated Mechanical & Electrical engineering services, and London Building Control provided building regulation advice.

CRASH supporters Lucion Environmental did an asbestos survey, and SUMO Services undertook utility and measured surveys. 

After refurbishment

The value of donated professional services and construction products from CRASH Patrons and Supporters came to £58,780. CRASH also gave a grant of £30,000 make the total value of help delivered a total of £88,780.

Ashgate Hospicecare Derbysire

Ashgate Hospicecare provides specialist palliative and end of life care to the people of North Derbyshire. The hospice supports patients and their families practically, and emotionally, both through inpatient care and through the many treatment and bereavement services that they offer.

CRASH had previously helped this charity with the construction of an extension to provide 9 patient rooms and bathrooms.

The charity now needed to improve the accessibility to their Grade II listed building, for people coming for visits and day treatments. The hospice offers therapy treatments, counselling, art therapy, training and education, and a café and well-being garden. The original main entrance which cannot be changed, was narrow and has a step which meant it did not align with the hospices main aim, to create equitable access to all their services.

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

By creating a new level entrance with push button entry into the hospice, patients, their loved ones and other visitors now have equal access to therapeutic services, training, the cafe and the wellbeing garden. In addition, new floor coverings were laid, walls re-painted and two new disabled parking spaces were added along with an external canopy and lighting.

CRASH, thanks to our Corporate Patrons, British Gypsum, Dulux Decorator Centre, Hanson and supporter Heckmondwike, created a new entrance close to the therapy rooms allowing access for all. The value of donated professional expertise and construction products was £1,411 plus a grant of £45,000 bringing the total value of help delivered to the charity £46,411.

Kairos Community Trust North London

Kairos Community Trust is dedicated to helping homeless men and women with drug and alcohol problems, through their abstinencesupport hostel, rehab programmes and network of 29 supported move-on houses.

Move-on houses are vital in a person journey out of homelessness and addiction. They offer the opportunity for people to live independently, but with the comfort of knowing a support worker is available 24 hours a day should they need it. -on houses are family sized properties in the community, ranging in size from four to eleven bedrooms. Their property in Burnt Oak, which is constantly fully occupied, offers a home to seven residents and one of the bathrooms required complete refurbishment.

CRASH Corporate Patron VolkerFitzpatrick led the build and worked with the support of their sub-contractors, Lawsons Group, Mossford and Pentalec, to strip out the old bathroom and construct the new one. CRASH engaged our Corporate Patrons Geberit, who generously donated the sanitaryware, Dulux Decorator Centre, who supplied the paint, and supporter Altro who provided the flooring and wall panelling.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Organisation and Structure

The Board of Trustees meets at least four times a year. There is also a Grants Committee, chaired during the year by Trustee, Kevin Corbett. The Grants Committee reports to the Board of Trustees and meets between two and three times a year with the Chief Executive, Projects Coordinator and the Finance Manager to discuss and award grants to homelessness and hospice projects. The number of meetings will depend on the number of applications being considered and meetings can be held remotely or in person.

The executive operation of the charity is delegated by the Board to the Chief Executive, Francesca Roberts.

Governing Document

The charitable company is a company limited by guarantee (Company Registration Number 03175906 (England and Wales)) and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. In the event of the charity being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (Charity Registration Number 1054107).

Key management personnel

The Trustees with the Chief Executive (CEO) undertake the strategic planning and key management of the charity and the CEO is responsible for directing and controlling the charity on a day to day basis. The primary responsibilities for operating the charity are shared between the CEO and Partnerships & Fundraising Manager (both directly employed) and the Projects Manager, who is a chartered Building Surveyor and seconded to the charity.

No Trustee receives any remuneration or reimbursement of expenses in connection with their duties as a trustee.

Salaries for all employees, including the Chief Executive of the charity, are reviewed annually by the Chairman, Deputy Chairman and Treasurer. Salaries are reviewed in accordance with average earnings and employee performance.

Trustees

Trustees are appointed by the Board and serve for five years after which they are eligible for re-appointment. No Trustee serves for more than two terms of five years or after reaching the age of 70. In the case of all appointments, the Board considers the variety of skills and diversity required within the Board, together with the personal competence and availability of prospective Trustees. Trustees are selected to ensure that the construction and property sector is strongly represented thus encouraging maximum support from the industry. Trustees are not remunerated for their services as Trustees and during the year no expenses were reimbursed to Trustees (2022: £nil).

New Trustees are inducted before their appointment on their legal obligations under charity and company law and the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The Trustees and Patrons are invited to visit a selection of the projects that CRASH helps during the year. They are also -hand about projects and what CRASH has achieved during the year thanks to their support.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Objectives for 2022-23

  1. We will focus first and foremost on maintaining Patron company numbers and finding new companies as this is what underpins the charity in everything it does and particularly its charitable activities.

CRASH events will remain risk averse and emphasis will be put on supporting companies to run their own fundraising activities in aid of CRASH.

  1. We will be promoting our charitable services as widely as possible to ensure strong application levels. Consideration will be given to holding a workshop for charities regarding key elements of building maintenance and fire precautions. We will widen the incorporation of professionals on first project visits to more Patron companies and increase Gifts in Kind for our charitable activities.

  2. Communications will remain a high focus with particular emphasis on social media as the impact of paper publications, particularly since the pandemic, has decreased. Communications will aim to reach our beneficiaries as well as CRASH Patrons and supporters in the construction industry.

11

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

  1. Cyber Security Training and policy for the charity will be further developed and ongoing.

  2. Trustees will undertake a performance review of the Board and its governance of the charity to ensure strong continuity planning regarding the Board and what it offers to the charity and stakeholders.

Outcomes 2022-23

  1. For much of the year the charity had a record number of Patron companies but then in the last month of the financial year, three companies decided they would not renew their patronage and so we ended the year with one less Patron company than we had started with. Reasons given for retiring vary but are usually related to economic challenges or the decision to support a different charity.

  2. Charitable activity and application levels improved on the previous year but have still not reached pre-Covid levels. CRASH with the help of one of our Patrons organised and hosted a workshop for charities regarding fire precautions in buildings of multiple occupation. This was well attended.

  3. There was an increase in the marketing and communications the charity was able to produce about our charitable activities and a variety of social media channels were used. The charity received, once again, strong support from construction and property industry journals to promote our fundraising events. A CRASH Patrons Forum was hosted and was particularly well attended by employees from Patron companies marketing and communications departments.

  4. Significant progress was made in implementing cyber security for the charity. A new company was engaged to provide IT support and is helping the charity to work towards Cyber Essentials Certification.

  5. The Trustees reviewed their Board performance and the strategy underpinning the charities charitable activities.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The statement of financial activities summarising the results for the year can be found on page 20.

The charity ended the financial year with a deficit of £51,744 (2022: surplus £120,210). This deficit was budgeted as the charity more than doubled its grant giving to projects. It was good to see an improvement in both income and Gifts in Kind.

The income for the year was £1,079,072, an increase of 24% on the previous year (2022: £871,330). Unrestricted donations received decreased by £36,788 to £175,595 (2022: £138,807). Patron income decreased by £9,000 to £306,000 (2022: £315,000). The total value of Gifts-In-Kind increased by 65% to £359,411 (2022: £217,871). Income from other trading activities was £110,981 (2022: £81,487).

Expenditure in the year increased to a total of £1,130,816 (2022: £751,120). Grant giving has increased from £186,500 to £377,287 and Gifts-In-Kind provided to projects saw an increase from £167,397 to £308,120. The total value of project related activities increased by 55% from £669,736 to £1,038,103.

At 31 March 2023, CRASH held unrestricted funds of £888,117 (2022: £949,861) and £10,000 of restricted funds. After adjusting for the net book value of fixed assets, free reserves equated to £887,773 (2022: £949,337).

Cash flow remained strong with funds in hand and cash equivalents of £1,316,981 at 31 March 2023 (2022: £1,223,920). There are pledged grant commitments to be paid in the next financial year.

As an industry charity, CRASH is wholly supported by companies and individuals within the construction and property sector. CRASH receives no Government funding.

CRASH Patron companies make a goodwill commitment to give an annual donation of £9,000 (2022: £9,000). These donations make a significant contribution t This method of fundraising allows CRASH to channel more of the donations received from fundraising events and individuals directly to homelessness and hospice projects.

KEY POLICIES

Reserves policy

activities and grant giving and also to ensure excessive funds are not accumulated. The reserves policy has been reviewed during the year and the Trustees have agreed that free reserves should be sufficient to cover up to 12 months of unrestricted expenditure excluding Gifts-In-Kind based on the budgeted expenditure of the next financial year. This policy will give CRASH the ability to respond to fluctuations in income and support large projects when presented. The reserves policy will continue to be reviewed on a regular basis.

The approved budgeted expenditure for the financial year 2023-24 is £790,739 excluding gifts-in-kind, whilst free reserves as at 31 March 2023 stood at £887,773. This represents a reserves level of 13.5 months. The Trustees believe this level to be appropriate at this time as the ability of CRASH to fundraise continues to be impacted by the economic environment.

Risk management

CRASH carries out a risk assessment annually which is then considered by the Trustees and appropriate procedures are put in place to mitigate exposure to these risks. The Trustees categorise the potential risks as high, medium and low.

The area of risk that is currently considered to be high is:

Loss of key staff : With only 5.5 employees (including seconded staff) at CRASH and each one carrying considerable responsibility for the operations of the charity, the impact of losing any employee has a significant impact on the charity. To mitigate this, whenever possible succession planning is put in place. There are established procedures for notice periods, handovers and recruitment processes. CRASH is fortunate to have the pro-bono help of an experienced HR Director.

13

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls we:

performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

reviewing the minutes of trustee meetings; and

enquiring of management and those charged with governance as to actual and potential litigation and claims.

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are laid out below.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

These financial statements have been prepared for the year to 31 March 2023 with comparative information provided in respect to the year to 31 March 2022.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policies below or the notes to these accounts.

The financial statements have been prepared 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are presented in sterling and are rounded to the nearest pound.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGEMENT

Preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees and management to make significant judgements and estimates.

The items in the financial statements where these judgements and estimates have been made include:

ASSESSMENT OF GOING CONCERN

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The Trustees have made this assessment in respect to a period of at least one year from the date of approval of these financial statements.

The Trustees of the charity have concluded that there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees are of the opinion that the charity will have sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

23

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

INCOME RECOGNITION

Income is recognised in the period in which the charity has entitlement to the income, the amount of income can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.

Income comprises donations, including Gifts-In-Kind, income from trading activities and interest receivable.

Donations are recognised when the charity has confirmation of both the amount and settlement date. In the event of donations pledged but not received, the amount is accrued for where the receipt is considered probable. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Gifts-In-Kind (free and discounted materials) and donated services are secured by the charity from Patron and supporting companies for the beneficiaries. After they are distributed to the beneficiaries, they are brought into the financial statements as income and expenditure at an estimate of their value to the charity. Gifts-In-Kind for media related services are discounted to a value of 25% to reflect more appropriately the value of the benefit to CRASH.

Income from trading activities, being monies received from fundraising events, is credited to the statement of financial activities when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity.

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 of payable by the bank.

EXPENDITURE RECOGNITION AND ALLOCATION OF SUPPORT COSTS

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to make a payment 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.

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Expenditure comprises direct costs and support costs. All expenses, including support costs, are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings.

Expenditure comprises the following:

Grants payable are included in the statement of financial activities when approved by the Trustees and when the intended recipient has either received the funds or has been informed of the decision to make the grant and has satisfied all related conditions.

Grants approved and for which the recipient has satisfied all conditions, but which have not been paid at the end of the financial year, are included as creditors.

Grants where the beneficiary has not been informed or has yet to meet certain conditions before the grant is released are not accrued for but are noted as financial commitments in the notes to the financial statements.

Support costs, including governance costs, are allocated between the expenditure categories on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. The basis for the allocation of support costs is detailed in note 4.

Governance costs include those associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity for instance, the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.

24

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RELIEF, ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT FOR THE HOMELESS AND HOSPICES LIMITED PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Individual assets costing £500 or more with an expected useful life of more than one year are capitalised.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates, in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

Office furniture, fittings and equipment

25% on cost

DEBTORS

Debtors are recognised at their settlement amount, less any provision for non-recoverability. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid. They have been discounted to the present value of the future cash receipt where such discounting is material.

CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND

Cash at bank and in hand represents such accounts and instruments that are available on demand or have a maturity of less than three months from the date of acquisition. Deposits for more than three months but less than one year have been disclosed as short term deposits. Cash placed on deposit for more than one year is disclosed as a fixed asset investment.

CREDITORS

Creditors 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. Creditors and provisions are recognised at the amount the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt. They have been discounted to the present value of the future cash payment where such discounting is material.

FUNDS

Restricted funds are monies raised for or their use restricted to a specific purpose, as stipulated by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the appropriate fund.

PENSION COSTS

The charity contributes to the pension scheme of all employees on a defined contribution basis. The cost of the contributions is charged to the statement of financial activities over the period in which the cost is incurred.

OPERATING LEASES

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the lease term.

A grant to Emmaus Village Carlton of £10,000, pledged during prior, year was written back as the charity decided not to proceed with the project. The donor for this restricted grant, VolkerFitzpatrick, decided therefore to restrict their donation to the Manna Daycentre London instead.

15 MEMBERSHIP LIABILITY

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee. In the event of the company being wound up, the members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

16 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Eight Trustees are employed by Patron companies which each donated £9,000 per annum to the charity during the year (2022 seven Trustees employed by Patron companies, which each gave £9,000).

During the year £57,987 (2022: £57,987) was paid to patron company Arcadis for a secondment to CRASH. This is less than the cost to CRASH of filing that role directly and a significant benefit to the charity. Two Trustees are currently employed by Arcadis, Alan Brookes and Fiona Duncombe.

Patron company BAM Construct was paid £25,200 (2022: 14,700) for seconding an employee to CRASH. One Trustee is employed by BAM Construct, James Wimpenny.

Both secondment placements have provided significant value to CRASH charity and the work it undertakes.

During the year £19,569 (2022: £31,000) was paid to one Trustee, Francois Morrow, who provided professional design, communications and marketing services to the charity. This Trustee was not employed by a Patron company and retired during the year.

There were no other related party transactions during the year requiring disclosure (2022: none).
