Achievements and pefftirniance It has been a challenging year once again for the ca￿rS Centre but much more so for our benefiaarEs. Our well*stablished position as a provider of advicè, infomiation and wèllbeing services has proved to be invaluable to the unpaid carers we have supported over the year. We continue to see an increase in demand for our counselling and lislening ear service and this has increased the length of time that carers can expect to wait befo￿ receiving direct support. We are working hard to address this through fundraising to expand the team of volunteers. We are very lucky to have such a dedicated and professional team of volUnt￿rs, without whom we (xjuld offer the range of services that we do. Our infomiation and advice service is also in demand as the rise in energy and food costs is being felt by vulnerable households. CHCC is working hard to ensure we have some provision for crisis support internally and that we have clèar pathways to direct carèrs to organisab.ons also offering crisis support.

Chair's Report This has been a year in which we have continued to provide ServI￿S for the unpaid carers of Hackney. You can read more aboLJt the help we are able to PTovide elsewhe￿ in this report. As we emerge from the pandemic we are gradually ￿-Introdu￿ng face to face session5 for carer5. but continue to offer a lot of support via phone and video conferencing services suth as ZCKJM. FLJndraising has proved more chaI￿nging over the last tsyelve months. However, due to prudent management by our COO, Joanna Brunt, a striGt control of ￿$ts. and a huge effort orh the part of Jo and others in applyng for funding. the charity has m8naged lo maintsin rts financial position. Wl who work for the Carers Centre are to be congratulated on this achievement, which puts us on a g(￿ footing for providing services next year. CHCC would like to thank the followng funders for their 5UPPOrt=_ The London 8orough of Hackney Cty Bridge Trust The Mercers Charitab￿ Foundation H8¢kney Giving Kings Park Moving Together Public Health England Carers Trust London Catalyst West Hackney Parochial Charity Hackney Parochial Charity London Community Response Financial Review As noted in the Financial Review of the Previous years the COVID 19 Pandemic signtficantty increased the needs of our beneficiaries. The Charity was in a strong position to respond to the increased needs and altered ways of working the Pandemic broughl about. We were ihe first Charity in East London to provide web-based services and group meetings to our seNice users. The resulis of the year's operations are set out in the Financial Staternents. Total incoming rèsourcès amounted to £225.43812021.. £275.5691 and total résour¢es expended amounted lo £226.69312021- £219.1611. resulb.ng in a retum lo a small defiut of £1,255 for the year 12021= surplus £56,408). This deficit is due to the expenditure of Reslricled Funds held al the end of the previous year to finance ongoing projects. During the year the Restricted Funds held fell by £9,690 frorn £49,331 to £39,641. In contrasl, as noted bek)w, the amount of Unrestricted Funds rose during the year. CITY & HACKNEY CARERS CENTRE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2022 Reserves poll¢y The Charity sets 8side funds, 8s unrestricted reserves, to meet future anticipated or contingent expenditure, in particular lo.. cover stsffing costs such as sickness or redundancy. to develop new activities and lo ensure the continuity of services through difficult financial periojs. The Board of Tnjstees decided the desired level of the 'Yree" reserves should be betsyeen 3- and ffrmonths recurrent expenditure at the time this amounted to £100,000 - £160,000, Recurrent expenditure is currenuy at a reduced level applying the same approach would requirè r8sèrves between £56,000 and £100,000. The Board considered it prudent to maintain the reservès at a higher level. At the end of the financial year the free reserves stood at £156.619 12021.. £148,184). This will enable the charity to maintain activity and devekjp new se￿￿eS through the Cost of Living Crisis which wll have a significant impact on our beneficiaries. The existence of these reserves has enabled the Trustees to accept financial risk. and to continue services through very uncertain limes. This has faulitaled the uninlerrupted delivery of essential, valuable activities and development of new services for our benefiaaries. Risk The most significant risk faced by the Charty. as wrth many other small ch8riti85. is maintsining sufFicient funding to provide for the n￿dS of its service users. This is particularfy apparent in a period where Carers, our beneficiaries, have been particularly badly affecled by measures to combat the spread of COVID19 virus. The incr8asing usa of wei>based lechnoknw to sèNe thè needs of our ￿nefi￿aries through the Pandèmic and the peri(MJs of isolation and Iwk-dovm rt has increased the risks of cyber-attack and the need for electronic dats security. The Trustees believe that reasonable data security measures are in plac? they continue to look into further steps to enhance proteclions. Going concern The Trustees believe that the currenl level of reserves ￿11 enable Ihe currenl level of activity to be sustained for more than 24 months while we ￿fttinue to develop new services and identify new partners. In consequence the Trustees believe that the Charity wll be able to continue as a going (x>rhcern into 2024 and beyond. Plan5 for future The charity provides many services to benefic4aries as described in this report. However, the Trustees are of the view that, valuable as they are, these services on their own a￿ insufficient to sustain the charity in a financially sound state for the long tem. To this end the Charity won a bid for funding from the Carers Trust, for a nèw 32 month project commencing in October 2021 wh￿h will providè a total incomè of £149,935. Thè Trustees are therefore determined to build new serviGe5 for our beneficiaries at a time when they face new and increased hardship as a resur( of the COVID 19 Pandemic and to find new partners to provide the economies of scale necessary to sustain and devek)p these services into the future. 10 CITY & HACKNEY CARERS CENTRE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2022 BÈnÈflclarle$ of our setvlc¢$ Beneficiaries of our services are unpaid CArers aged 16 and over living in the Borough of Hackney 8nd the City of London.
