Opening Statement –
The Year again has been challenging but yet rewarding. It is with the greatest of pride that I can say a very big thank you to every single person in our Charity who has never lost the vision of FFOPS “to support and be a voice for the Families and Friends of Prisoners”. Our Charity has certainly succeeded through thick and thin despite all the adversities and problems encountered during the Year. A very proud Founder, Trustee and Chair of FFOPs.
Public Benefit Statement –
All the activities undertaken by the charity within the year have been for the public benefit through the furtherance of the organisation’s charitable aims and objectives. The public benefit is demonstrated by the activities and outcomes outlined throughout this Trustees Annual Report.
FFOPS manages the booking in/waiting area (cabin) at the entrance to the prison. We are the first point of contact for all visitors, which means making the right first and lasting impression. Getting our families to feel they can confide in us and thereby trust us is paramount. Located at the prison enables us to know, understand and communicate how the prison works, answering queries, providing practical and emotional support, helping with filling in application forms, helping with assisted prison visits, financial information, liaising with schools/social services/ solicitors/mental health services. Many of the visitors have different needs, some visible, some not. Getting to know our families enables us to assess their needs and the needs of their loved ones, and to ensure that they are treated with both dignity and care. It is our role to ensure that the prison booking team is aware of these needs prior to arrival to ensure that the visit is not impinged and the parent/carer does not suffer because of their disability. We believe that no child should suffer as a result of their parent’s actions. We also know that the prison environment can be a scary one, and visiting for a child can be overwhelming, nerve racking and intimidating. Our role is to reduce the impact that this has on the child or the parents, making the visit as relaxing as we possibly can. We do this by interacting, playing and talking to the children beforehand discussing their fears and worries and helping to explain the process.
We help these families in the community, by working with schools, Social Services, the Police, Probation, Solicitors, and the NHS to keep families together. We have built up an excellent relationship with the prison attending regular meetings and networking with other agencies where needed. We are able to reduce the number of queries the prison are dealing with by advising and consoling visitors who are distressed before they go into the visit. We are able to explain the routine and we can also walk them in, so they have a friendly face with them. It is a priority to ensure children are made to feel welcome and that they are not
frightened by the surroundings. Many are unaware that they are visiting a prison as they’ve been told that dad is ‘working away’ or ‘on holiday’.
They can be scared of the big doors and locks, the search dogs and the orders given by the uniformed security guards. We engage with the children on arrival and distract them with toys, games and activities, so they do not focus on negatives. Our aim is to encourage regular visits, thus maintaining family bonds. We treat all visitors with the respect and dignity they deserve. We liaise with the prison for disabled and special needs visitors. We can then arrange for people in wheelchairs and with mobility issues to have separate access. We have accompanied children with Autism and ADHD into visits and kept them occupied and involved so the rest of the family do not have their visit disrupted. All of these things make a huge difference to our visitors. We can arrange activities and outings for children to give their parents/grandparents a break, this is especially important when a member of the family needs constant attention, their siblings can feel marginalised and neglected so we try to arrange separate activities so everyone gets attention.
Our Family Support Worker (FSW) is available to entertain the children/families and speak to them if they have any worries. She can speak privately to visitors if they need that time. Working with the support of the Probation sector in the Prison has enabled FFOPS to be able to check with them if we have any service users that we may need some extra support or information on the background of their loved ones needs and any concerns we have we can share with them.
FFOPS is an organisation that understands what it is like to feel ostracised and lonely to be the crutch that supports and the glue that helps to hold families together. Our aim is to do this pre, during and post sentencing and following the prisoners release continuing to maintain relationships to try and support whatever we possibly can. Prisoners are aware that in some cases, families could not survive without our support. In certain cases for some it is a harsh reality for prisoners to recognise that their actions do have consequences that do not only impact on themselves: it is this realisation along with working with ourselves through their families.
Case Study: A referral from a local Comprehensive school involving 2 children aged 12 and 14. Mum and dad are both in Prison, the children both live with their grandparents but are under social services watch. The oldest doesn’t want to have any relationship with either parent and is finding it hard to concentrate on his school work and regularly skips school, the younger brother wants to see mum but not dad and this itself is causing another rift in the family. I have met with the Pastoral care worker in the school and spoke with both boys about other ways to keep in touch that doesn’t involve anything as intense as face to face for now.
They were both very happy to work with myself and FFOPS as they are very vocal about their dislike of authority like the police and social services so they are using us as their go between and trusted person/service.
Case Study: Mother of 4 children aged between 1-13, She has been travelling from Cardiff to visit with the 2 youngest children. She has really been struggling with them on her own as they don’t cope well with the visit. Mum now lets me know when she is visiting with the children as I arrange for myself or a volunteer to be there to play with the children and engage in a relaxed manner before they go over for their visit. Mum is very grateful for us doing this as it relieves some of the pressure on her. Case Study - One lady who is a grandmother undergoing chemotherapy treatment has a grandson and a son in Prison, during lockdown her son was moved to a different prison further away so this made things even more difficult for travel and visits. We helped her set up her purple visit's app, this means she is able to have a virtual visit on her iPad with both loved ones safely and regularly.
Case Study: Grandparents are visiting with their 4-year-old granddaughter whose father has been at the centre of a high profile and media case. His sentencing is due in August and he is looking at upwards of 12 years. She is unaware of the severity of the crime as she is too young but her mum has been in touch with me to ask if she can arrange a meeting with me to talk with her about the crime and sentencing in an age sensitive manner. She is worried about telling her, especially as when she goes to school, she knows people will be talking about it and doesn’t want her to perhaps hear that her dad is in prison from someone else.
Case study: We are supporting a family where a father has attacked his wife during a psychotic episode nearly causing a fatality. It is the first time he has ever been in trouble and all of the family have never experienced any involvement with the law or justice system in this capacity. They are really struggling with all that is going on.
FFOPS have been with them all the way through the process from booking and preparing them for their visit.
We have received funding from the following Organisations during April 2021-March 2022:-
National Lottery - July 2021 - £9,750 Waterloo - October 2021- £25,460 Austin Bailey - January 2022 - £2,500

Volunteer/staff training and learning New printer/laptop//phone and office materials
Family days/events

The running of FFOPS drop-in centre to its highest capacity
Looking forward to 2023 FFOPS are anticipating the levels of service users to be a lot higher than previous years. This will be a knock-on effect of the of cost-of-living crisis and the rise of financial related crimes.
We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all our grant funders, partner/third
sector organisations, workers, volunteers, and trustees, without whom our work
would not be possible. Thank you all for helping us make such an important
difference to people’s lives at a time when they need it the most.

Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Investment gains and losses This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial instruments The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.Fixed asset investments in quoted shares traded bonds and similar investments are valued at Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Stocks and work in progress Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. |

Note 25 Fair value of assets and liabilities
25.1 Please provide details of the charity's exposure to credit risk (the risk of incurring a loss due to a debtor not paying what is owed) , liquidity risk (the risk of not being able to meet short term financial demands) and market risk (the risk that the value of an investment will fall due to changes in the market) arising from financial instruments to which the charity is exposed at the end of the reporting period and explain how the charity manages those risks.
25.2 Please give details of the amount of change in the fair value of basic financial instruments (debtors, creditors, investments (see section 11, FRS 102 SORP)) measured at fair value through the SoFA that is attributable to changes in credit risk.
No current credit risk, due to the fact that the vast majority of income comes from grants. Some current liquidity risk, as the charity has limited income resources, almost all of which come from grants, and a very small amount from donations. There is a risk because of the time taken to receive grant instalments while projects continue to run. This risk is exacerbated by a lack of unrestricted income and the fact that Trustees have made personal no-interest loans to the charity to try to keep it going at a time in previous financial years where grant funding was running out (see note 29). Unrestricted income generation would help cushion these financial effects. No market risk, as the organisation has no investments other than cash at the bank/building society standard accounts.
N/A. There has been no change which is attributable to credit risk.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)
The following are significant matters which are not covered in other notes and need to be included to provide a proper understanding of the accounts. If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.
This is to draw attention to the matter highlighted in note 25 regarding some liquidity risk. In a previous financial year the charity received two no-interest loans of one thousand pounds each from two trustees in order to help the organisation through a difficult financial period while awaiting grant funding.
In a more recent financial year this £2k owed increased to £2,955, because the same two Trustees have increased the amounts they’ve lent to the charity. This amount has been entered into the accounts as a creditor. For reasons of prudence this has been entered into the creditors due within one year, although in reality that is not likely to be the case because the whole reason for the Trustees using their own money to make an interest free loan to the organisation was solely for the purposes of keeping the charity going. As no time limit has been given regarding the repayment of those loans it is therefore unlikely that they would seek to call them in within one financial year. Also it must be borne in mind that the charity couldn’t repay those loans even if the Trustees wanted it to, because the charity has virtually no unrestricted funding of its own and therefore it would have to use grants from other sources to make the repayment which would instantly put it in breach of those grant terms. In essence the £2,955 loan has been entered as a creditor to act as a constant reminder that that amount is still owed by the charity to the Trustees who lent it.
In essence the only way that the charity will ever be able to repay those loans is if it generates some unrestricted income (i.e. non grant funded income). Other charities use regular member subscriptions, or hold fundraising events such as sponsored events, coffee mornings, book/jumble/craft sales, or seek bequests by circulating fact sheets about the charity to local solicitors etc. Donations or subscriptions from UK taxpayers can also be enhanced by claiming government Gift Aid on those donations. Unrestricted income would have multiple benefits including tiding the organisation through the hard times experienced by many charities while they wait to hear whether or not grant applications have been successful. It would also mean that the Trustees could request to be repaid their loans. Also, it would also allow the organisation to undertake charitable activities or projects which it wished to carry out without being tied to funder restrictions, including enabling chosen projects to continue for a while once grant funded income has run out. In essence unrestricted income can act as a buffer and an enabler allowing for at least some continuity of service in the hard financial times between grants.
One way forward may be for the Trustees to decide to reclassify the loans they gave (or part of them) and ask for them to be considered as donations instead. This would instantly remove the current £2,955 creditor (or part of it) from the next set of accounts because as donations those amounts would not be repayable.

Respective responsibilities The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The of trustees and examiner charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given examiner’s statement by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. Independent examiner's In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention statement 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with
-
the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose .
It should be noted that there is some liquidity risk, as mentioned in note 25 of the accounts, which is mainly due to grant funded projects continuing to run while awaiting further funding instalments and is exacerbated by a lack of unrestricted income which would help act as a cushion against these effects. The fact that the vast majority of the organisation’s income is grant funded with restrictions means that flexibility is very limited.
The £2k loan total received from two of the charity’s trustees as a loan of £1k from each increased to a total of £2,955 last financial year and remains at that level in this financial year being examined. It is owed by the charity to those trustees split £1,500 and £1,455 at financial year end. However, until such time as enough unrestricted income is generated by the charity it will continue to be unable to repay those loans since the charity’s main funding comes from grants with restrictions and objectives placed upon them.
