REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. 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
The organisation presents as a social enterprise, developing its own income streams whilst supporting residents' needs. A review of the purpose and strategic direction of the organisation was undertaken in 2020-21 and was reviewed again in 2021-22 to ensure our vision, mission and values were fit for purpose. Our updated Strategic Business Plan was published in 2021-23 which confirmed the following vision, mission, and values:
Our Vision: A thriving community that's a great place to live, work and play.
Our Mission: To work positively with local people to achieve our shared vision.
Our Core Values: The way we work is to build trusted relationships with others including staff, volunteers, local people and partners. We are...
Trustworthy
We will continue to build trust amongst residents, clients, staff, volunteers, and stakeholders by being open, honest and leading by example.
Open
Our services will be accessible to residents and we will remain open and accountable to our stakeholders.
Adaptable
We are responsive to the needs of the local community and will adapt our delivery to reflect change.
Creative
We will continue to find creative solutions to problems and build creativity into our approach as this encourages the engagement of our community.
Our Strategic Aims
-
Community Involvement - to develop a sense of ownership of Meadow Well Connected amongst residents through creative engagement, e.g., events, outreach work, community-led activities.
-
Skills Development - to provide inspiration and support for local people who wish to develop new skills and new ways of enriching their lives.
-
Wellbeing - to strengthen and support the physical, mental, and social resilience of residents.
What we do
Meadow Well Connected is the Resource Centre at the hub of the community in the two most deprived wards in North Tyneside, namely Riverside and Chirton.
We work with the local community to identify the most significant needs and develop programmes of support with them to enable them to flourish and become more independent, both economically and socially.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES - continued
Current programmes are in four key areas: Community Involvement, Skills Development, Well-being, and Organisational Development. They include environmental and horticultural skills development through volunteering and traineeships in our extensive gardens; debt and money management support; alcohol reduction programmes; digital and employability support using our IT suite; health and wellbeing initiatives to improve the mental and physical health of local people; affordable after-school provision to support children aged 5-13 and help their parents manage work commitments; a number of community-led workshops and activities; horticulture, joinery and enrichment programmes to support adults with additional needs and young people who have disengaged from school to develop skills to give them greater independence.
Community Involvement: this is central to our service delivery and links to our mission of working positively with local people to achieve our shared vision. We seek to involve local people in our service development and take their opinions into account when shaping the service we provide. We undertake continuous contact with local people through focus groups, door-knocking, and surveys. In November 2021 we commissioned an independent community consultation which received over 200 responses from local households. The report demonstrated a large increase in awareness of Meadow Well Connected since our previous community consultation which was undertaken in 2018 and highlighted the priorities for local people around:
-
More things for children and young people to do
-
Better access to green spaces and environmental concerns
-
Improved marketing of our services
We have developed responses to these findings which will be implemented in 2022-23.
Skills Development: all aspects of our charitable provision and social enterprise work is shaped to ensure skills development is central to our delivery model. Staff, clients, and volunteers agree personal goals for skills development and this links with our vision of a thriving community.
Wellbeing: we work to create a safe, welcoming space where individual differences are recognised and valued. We have a unique mix of clients, staff and volunteers working shoulder-to-shoulder to create a supportive and varied environment where people can gain self-confidence and build self-reliance.
Organisational Development: we recognise the challenging environment in which we operate and seek to work in a creative and forward-looking way to maximise the assets of the organisation through developing sustainable business offers. We currently operate local authority contracts; room hire and training as income generating activities to support the core costs of the organisation. We are working to develop strong links to business and have made several successful links including Capita, Open Lab at Newcastle University, Sage, TLW Solicitors, Tesco Extra North Shields, JTF Wholesalers, Lord Tool Hire, Jesmond Tree Surgeons, and Azure Garden Centre.
During 2021-22 we worked collaboratively with VODA and the Yes We Can Community C.I.C. to develop a programme of collaborative leadership which is funded by North Tyneside Council and is called Leaders Together. The programme will run over 12 months and aims to create a shared culture of collaborative leadership in North Tyneside. The programme involves:
-
Hosting and sharing
-
Learning and reflecting
-
Connecting and being

Public benefit
In reviewing our strategic objectives and planning our activities for the year, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. The trustees are satisfied that the strategic objectives are in line with the charity's objects as set out in the governing document.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Pilotlight Programme
We were delighted to have been chosen to receive an award from Garfield Weston Foundation which enabled us to take part in a yearlong Pilotlight Programme starting in October 2020. Due to the pandemic the programme was delivered remotely but enabled our senior team, trustees, staff and volunteers to engage in the process which works collaboratively to consider the strategic, developmental and governance challenges we face and enables us to access mentoring and support from experienced senior staff from the private sector.
A clear plan was determined with input from staff and trustees and Pilotlight steered us through the project whilst the Pilotlighters gave challenge and suggestions as to how we can move the organisation positively with their support.

Our Projects and Services
Supported Volunteers
Our Supported Volunteer programme is designed to offer opportunities to local people who want to contribute by volunteering but need some extra support to ensure they can manage their volunteering and to improve their wellbeing as a result. The Supported Volunteers Project was made possible by funding from The National Lottery Community Fund Reaching Communities Grant and will end in May 2022.
Wise Steps
We are delivery partners of Phase 3 of the Wise Steps project which is managed by Wise Group. The project runs until February 2023 and seeks to provide bespoke support to individuals who are struggling with complex life challenges. Wise Steps Coaches work with the individual to explore ways to address these challenges and activities to improve their confidence and wellbeing. This project is part of a partnership programme managed by Wise Group and funded by European Social Fund and the National Lottery Community Fund.
Steps to Employment and Building Brighter Futures Consortium - ESF Funded
A partnership consortium led by North Tyneside Council to provide employability support to people aged 18+ in North Tyneside.
Connected Kids Club and Mini Kids
We have been offering an affordable after-school club for children aged 8-13 for over 10 years. Thanks to funding from the Holiday Activities Fund we were able to provide summer holiday provision for younger children aged 5-7 in our Mini Kids Club. This proved to be extremely popular and as a result we funded a term-time Mini Kids Club from September 2021. Funding has been secured to continue this in 2022-23. Connected Kids Club was supported by Bernicia Foundation in 2021-22. During the year we have provided over 9,750 combined hours of activities to 136 individual children in Connected Kids Club and 2,430 hours to 55 individual children to Mini Kids Club.
Positive Pathways
Our Positive Pathways group meets twice a week led by group members and kindly supported by TLW Solicitors who provide support for refreshments, trips, and activities. The group provides a friendly space where people can meet, make friends, and reduce social isolation. During the year 45 individuals attended over 800 times, equivalent to 2,397 hours of time spent together.
Well Together
Well Together is our health & wellbeing project which includes specialist support for those with alcohol dependency. This programme is funded by the North Tyneside NHS CCG VCSE Large Grant Programme until October 2022. The programme includes a wide range of activities to support and improve the physical and mental wellbeing of residents.
During 2021-22 we supported 264 individuals to enjoy a range of activities such as yoga, sing together, chairbased exercise, beekeeping sessions, walking group and much more. We continued to provide telephone support for those who were anxious about face-to-face contact.

Digital Support
We offer access to our IT Suite so residents can manage their online life including their Universal Jobsmatch Account and other job-seeking activities. We support people to gain digital skills and create an action plan to make small steps towards improving their circumstances.
We have supported people to access digital equipment such as tablets and SIM cards to increase their connectivity with family, friends, and other online opportunities. 170 individuals were supported this year.
We have completed the work to fit-out our new DigiSuite with extra technology to enable people to learn coding and music technology.
Community Development
We have continued to understand the needs of our community through our Community Development Coordinator. 273 individuals benefitted from activities such as our seasonal activities (Santa Letters/Visits and Easter Trail), trips, guitar group, woodworking group and community-led groups. In addition, we were able to offer a family friendly autumn and Christmas fair which were visited by over 500 people.
Capital improvements
Several capital improvements took place during 2021-22 including the refurbishment of the café kitchen and seating area.
In addition, thanks to support from Capita and Tarmac we were able to resurface the car park to the front of the building at a much-reduced price.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE - continued
Ensuring our work delivers impact and outcomes
We undertake robust monitoring and evaluation of all we deliver. This includes engaging directly with a wide variety of stakeholders to understand their needs and what impact they require through our delivery. We complete this at the outset to determine outcomes and measures and thereafter undertake regular reviews to enable improvements or adjustments to our activities. Wherever possible we commission independent consultants to evaluate at the end of projects. Those directly benefitting provide regular feedback through several mechanisms including video/audio diary. We operate an online impact management system - Evide - to collate and analyse client data.
We have created new, easy to use, online surveys to improve our data collection and better underpin the difference that we make.
We took part in a programme to better understand the barriers to health and mental wellbeing with support from North of Tyne Combined Authority and Carnegie Foundation.
Our partners, supporters and funders
Meadow Well Connected is enormously appreciative of the support it receives through all its partners, funders, supporters, volunteers, and users.
Partners:
Capita and Sage Foundation are our Strategic Partners, offering support, advice, and volunteers.
TLW continue to provide financial support for our Positive Pathways group enabling them to undertake a range of activities both in the centre and as external trips.
The Bay Foodbank - We continue to support the food bank working to help local people. We are very grateful for the support they give to our Connected Kids Club, Positive Pathways group and Wise Steps well-being activities.
We have attracted new tenants including United Response and NT Recovery College and are exploring ways of working together for mutual benefit. KLX Dance Studio and 1st Meadowwell Scouts continue to base themselves in the centre. We have also been working with Success4All to provide STEM activities for children aged 5-7 once a week during term time.
Changing Lives continue to base their Recovery Café in the centre on a Friday morning.
We have continued to build positive relationships with Phoenix Detached Youth Project (PDYP) and Cedarwood Trust. During the year various 'Community Voice' meetings were hosted jointly to understand how we can work to support the needs of our community together. As a result, we have developed a Street Play Project in partnership with PDYP which will be piloted in 2022-23. We have also worked together to develop an expression of interest to obtain a decommissioned metro carriage which we have been invited to Stage 2 in 2022-23.
We are planning several Platinum Jubilee related activities jointly with Cedarwood Trust which will culminate with a joint garden party in May 2022.

Funders:
We would like to thank all our funders and supporters for the generosity they have shown us in 2021-22, including:

Over the year we have had the benefit of the unyielding support of fifty-five volunteers who provide much needed talent, skills and helping hands to enable us to focus on what really makes a difference. Our special thanks therefore go to those volunteers who dedicate so much time, effort, and passion to supporting who we are and what we do. Despite various restrictions relating to the ongoing pandemic, we still benefitted from 3,878 hours of volunteer time.
We are very grateful to all our clients, volunteers, staff and supporters for their hard work, commitment, and adaptability during 2021-22.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The 2021/22 financial year saw a growth of overall income (£71.1k) and expenditure (£97.4k) from the previous financial year, due in part to new project development and funding for our work responding to needs arising from the impact of the pandemic.
At year end, we achieved a surplus of £215.1k (2020/21 - £133.1k) on the general unrestricted fund, a better position than budgeted for due to additional income and reduced core costs. Reserves amounted to £652.2k (2020/21 - £502.5k) of which £140.8k (2020/21 - £198.4k) were restricted and a further £210.5k (2020/21 - £nil) were designated by the trustees.
Included within unrestricted general funds is an amount of £57.5k (2021 - £34,2k) which is represented by illiquid assets; the free reserves of the charity (after allowing for restricted, designated and committed amounts total £243.4k (2020/21 - £269.9).

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the trustees have prepared forecasts for 2021-2023 to consider the potential impact on MWC of possible scenarios on funding, alongside measures that can be taken to mitigate these. Based on these assessments and the current reserves position, the trustees have concluded they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and financial statements.
Reserves policy
Meadow Well Connected is currently dependent on grant income to sustain its activities, as earned income alone would not currently allow MWC to continue operating. This means that if there were to be a gap in grant income it is likely that MWC would have to close.
To avoid closure if funding difficulties were to happen the MWC Board has agreed to keep a certain level of financial reserves to ensure that main operations can continue for a period of 12 months.
The main concerns of the Board are to ensure:
-
That staff can continue working, primarily to secure new funding.
-
That service users are supported to move on to other appropriate services.
FUTURE PLANS
Improvement focus for 2022-23
-
Further financial stability and new sources of funding and income generation from garden and café.
-
To be more inclusive towards working members of the community looking at hours and service offers.
-
To further enhance the garden offer to ensure we are optimising our most substantive asset.
-
Form new partnerships for mutual benefit and joint bidding for funding.
-
To further develop our plans for achieving net zero.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
Meadow Well Connected is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association as amended 25 March 2022.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT - continued
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
As set out in the articles of association the chairperson of the trustees shall serve a two-year period and is entitled to be re-appointed by nomination. The vice chairperson and directors shall serve a two-year period and are entitled to be re-appointed by nomination.
During this financial year Brendan Austin stepped down as Chair in November 2021, and Marjory Burdis was appointed to the role of Chair in addition to her role as Finance Chair. During the year, sadly one of our resident trustees, Ian Taws passed away, but a new resident trustee was appointed to the board in March 2022 - Traci Malthus. We welcomed two further trustees - Wendy Hodgson and David Slater in October 2021.
The current board is made up of 2 resident members who support the organisation locally and advocate on behalf of both residents and other beneficiaries. An additional six professionals make up the rest of the board bringing skills in finance, commercial activity, governance, education, the charitable sector, health, and research.
Induction and training of new trustees
All staff, volunteers and Trustees undergo an induction upon commencement at the Centre which includes:
-
A health and safety and safeguarding induction.
-
Understanding of our mission, objectives and aims along with our values and the ethos and culture that makes us who we are and what we do.
-
A guided tour and brief induction in each provision
-
A DBS check.
-
Completion of online adult and children safeguarding offered by NTSCB.
Separately each group then receive specific induction relevant to their role and are linked to specific project areas on a rotational basis to deepen their understanding of the work we do.
All staff engage in an initial probationary period where upon they are given support to enable their transition into the organisation and development in post. Thereafter, staff participate in annual performance reviews, which are supported by our monitoring and evaluation processes in terms of their particular provision. Any learning or development needs are assessed, and appropriate measures taken to support the individual's ongoing evolution within their role and the charity.
Volunteers are supported by staff to ensure they are gaining from their time volunteering, supported in accessing additional services and provisions and that their work has mutual benefit for the individual and the organisation. Our Volunteer Coordinator, who was appointed in March 2020, we have further developed our volunteer offer to ensure volunteers are fully trained and vetted in relation to our safeguarding procedure. During 2021-22, we recruited 29 new volunteers and had support from 55 individuals across the organisation.
Key management remuneration
Salary and other benefits payable to key management personnel are benchmarked against comparable roles with other organisations in the voluntary sector.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT - continued
Organisational structure
The appointed Chief Officer leads the organisation, setting strategy and overseeing the growth and development of its services and offer to the community. She is supported by the Delivery & Development Manager, Office Manager and Facilities Coordinator to ensure all areas of the operational, project and financial management is effectively monitored and developed. The Board of Trustees meet eight times a year to oversee strategic priorities and ensure governance and adherence to the organisations mission, vision and values.
In total there are 20 staff members (15.8FTE), with 1.9 directly funded through the Wise Steps Project and the remainder funded through a combination of project and core income. During 2021-22 we supported 7 Kickstart staff to undertake a 6-month, government funded work placement. We have been able to offer part time work to 2 of the 7 candidates and 2 remaining Kickstarters will complete their placements in 2022-23.
The organisation has developed to generate its own income and as such has two main functions: social enterprise activities and charitable activities.
Risk Management
The trustees actively review the major risks that the charity faces on a regular basis and systems are in place to mitigate such risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of transactions and projects to ensure consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the Charity. These systems are periodically reviewed to ensure they meet the requirements of the Charity. In addition, the trustees have also examined other operational and business risks faced by the Charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate significant risks.
During 2021-22, trustees considered the ongoing risks to the organisation and agreed to establish a Safeguarding and Risk Management Committee and terms of reference were agreed during the year. The committee will begin meeting early in 2022-23. The purpose of the Safeguarding and Risk Management Committee is to scrutinise, monitor and advise on matters relating to our policy for safeguarding vulnerable adults and children and to ensure our non-financial risk management is effective and up to date.
Resources Management
We undertake strict monitoring of resources and regularly review contracts with suppliers to ensure we are achieving best value and utilising grant funding in the most efficient and effective way.
In line with this approach, we do not produce a glossy annual report, rather more we focus on producing materials our local community have told us is via community consultation are of interest to them, this includes 4 newsletters per year.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of Meadow Well Connected for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Approved by order of the board of trustees on 20 September 2022 and signed on its behalf by:
Ms M E Burdis, Chair

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Meadow Well Connected ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
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.
