HASTINGS SHOPMOBILITY Trustees, Annual Report 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023 Administrative Details Charity Name Charity Number Charity Address Hastings Shopmobility 1063812 Priory Meadow Car Park Level 8, Priory Meadow Shopping Centre, Queens Rd, Hastings TN34 1 PH Hastings Shopmobility is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation under Part 11 of the Charities Act 2011. Delay in the submission of accounts 2022~2023 The submission of the accounts for the year 1 st April 2022 to 31 March 2023 was delayed by the sad death of the Treasurer. In compiling the submitted accounts, reliance has been placed on his work together with the books, records and information supplied by staff and trustees to the new treasurer. Objectives and Activities The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. The objective of Shopmobility is to provide mobility aids for hire to those who need them at minimum cost. During the year to 31 St March 2023, the charity continued to provide this service. One part-time office manager and a team of unpaid volunteers carry out administrative tasks and assist customers. Achievements in 2022-2023 Shopmobility continued to fulfil its objectives during a difficult year when, similarly to many organisations, it was continuing its recovery from the impacts of Covid-19 restrictions. While monetary funds decreased significantly, the charity continued its services to those who needed them without increasing its prices to users. Financial Review 2022-2023 During the year to 31 St March 2023, the principal source of funds was the income from the hire of equipment which was £3,583 higher than the previous year. The financial year 2022 to 2023 saw a slight decrease in income from £12,956 to £12,518 due to reduced income from grants and donations partly offset by an increase in equipment hire fees. There was a significant increase in spending from £16,538 to £20,290 due to significant investment in the repair and maintenance of equipment for hire and transportation of equipment to those who needed it. No reserves are currently held. Further grant income is being sought to enable Shopmobility to continue its charitable work. Risks The principal risks facing Shopmobility are the lack of cash reserves together with rising costs while maintaining low prices for the benefit of users. The charity is, therefore, dependent upon grant and donation income to maintain a balance between sufficient income to cover costs and the lowest possible prices to users. This position is monitored by the Trustees on an ongoing basis. Declarations The trustees approved the trustees, report above on Signed on be f the trustees: Name: _. Date: 3 ¢S - 2p"l4
