Objectives and activities
About Emmaus Bristol
Emmaus Bristol’s Purpose, Mission, Vision and Values are shared with the Emmaus UK federation.
Purpose: We exist to give hope and a sense of belonging to those who have experienced homelessness and poverty.
Mission: To empower people affected by homelessness and poverty to change their lives for the better whilst using our voice to achieve social change.
In Bristol we do this by providing a community of affordable and safe homes, meaningful work experience and training through our social enterprises, which in turn provide social and environmental value for our local community.
Vision: A sustainable world in which everyone has a home and a sense of belonging.
Values:
Respect - for others, ourselves and our environment Sharing – our resources, skills, challenges and successes – Openness to ideas, challenges and to other points of view Solidarity – helping those in greatest need and opposing injustice Welcoming – friendly, approachable and inclusive to all
History of the Emmaus Movement
The Emmaus movement was founded in France just after the Second World War by Abbé Pierre, a priest and former member of the French Parliament, to combat poverty and homelessness. He began by sharing his presbytery with homeless people, collectively earning enough to live by recycling and selling things that others had thrown away. The movement has grown worldwide and there are now over 400 groups in 40 different countries.
Emmaus Bristol is a member of the Emmaus movement through its memberships of Emmaus International, Emmaus Europe and Emmaus UK. The movement seeks to support each individual community through cooperation and association within the wider movement. In the UK, all Emmaus communities are separate charities working on a national strategic plan the expression of which is at a local level.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
In the UK, communities operate as independent incorporated charities. Most communities combine residential accommodation with primary purpose social enterprises, based largely on the collection and sale of donated goods, as well as some refurbishment and repairs. Members of each community, known as ‘Companions’, have the opportunity, regardless of ability or skills, to help themselves through meaningful work, and thereby rediscover their self-worth and take steps towards their own personal development and re-integration into society.
Charitable Aims and Objects
The principal objectives of the charity are:
-
The alleviation and relief of poverty, hardship and distress arising therefrom to those in need without distinction by:
-
The provision of accommodation, or assistance in such provision, for the poor and homeless in the Bristol area and such other places as may seem appropriate from time to time.
-
The provision of education, training and employment training for such persons with the purpose of developing skills to enable them to gain employment.
-
The support of the work of other Emmaus Communities or other agencies in the relief of poverty and homelessness, whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere in the world and in particular (without limitation) by the exchange of resources, information and expertise with other Emmaus Communities worldwide.
-
The fulfilling of such other purposes as may from time to time be recognised by English Law as being charitable and which the Charity shall from time to time determine.
Strategies for Achieving Objectives
Emmaus Bristol’s strategic objectives July 2022 to June 2027 are to:
-
Build or acquire more new homes for people in housing need.
-
Transform our social enterprises to provide a higher level of training and support to Companions
-
Provide work experience and training opportunities to others in need of work skills; non-residential Companions.
-
Restructure our staff and board team and improve decision making and governance processes in order to support our growth.
-
Build on the structured support work developed over the last four years by moving towards an organisation-wide trauma informed approach.
The charity operates predominantly from a single office. The charity is governed by the Trustees (who meet at least four times a year) and managed by employees. The charity relies on volunteers; in addition to the Trustees (who are all volunteers) and the Companions, we also have a pool of regular and occasional volunteers who help in many ways such as helping in our warehouse and shops and supporting Companions. Emmaus Bristol has a staff team of 12, equivalent to 10 full time employees.
We started on our objective to restructure our staff team to allow for growth by creating a new office manager post and recruiting an additional support worker. However, the cost of living crisis and inflation has necessitated delaying further growth for now.

Activities for Achieving Objectives
-
Companion and Move-on Housing: Emmaus Bristol has 21 en-suite rooms in Shaftesbury House (owned by Emmaus Bristol) and a two-bed in St George owned by a private landlord. Shaftesbury House is primarily for Companions and our St George house primarily for former Companions who have found employment and are trying to move on.
-
Family Homes: Emmaus Bristol has four three-bedroom houses owned by Bristol City Council and leased to us on a ten-year peppercorn lease from Bristol City Council. These are rented to families in housing need at the Local Housing Allowance (LHA) rate.
-
Work experience: Companions have had various roles in our social enterprises over the year - retail assistant, driver, driver’s mate, warehouse management, administration, logistics, eBay sales, maintenance, cooking, cleaning and portable appliance testing/ electrical function testing and repairs. In addition, we work with other agencies and local businesses to provide employment skills and work experience externally.
-
Providing tailored support for Companions based on their individual needs; this has included addiction support, counselling, external training and internal opportunities such as having a specific, valued role within Emmaus.
-
Affordable business space for charities, CICs and social enterprises: In the year we provided space to Babbasa and Legs for Africa, as well as others which sub-licensed from Babbasa.
-
Social enterprises: three shops and an eBay store selling donated second hand furniture and clothing, a house clearance service and our newest social enterprise; two eco holiday pods which sit above our yard at Backfields House.
-
Solidarity is an important part of the ethos of Emmaus. This year we provided free or subsidised ‘paywhat-you-can’ furniture and essential items to local people in poverty. We provided up to three ‘solidarity places’ at any one time i.e. rooms for Companions who are not eligible for housing benefit. This year we fundraised for a water purifier for Emmaus Florence Home Foundation in Tamil Nadu, where climate change has led to sea water pollution of drinking water. We also installed a life-saving defibrillator outside of our Stokes Croft shop on Upper York Street, thanks to the fundraising activities of staff, Companions and supporters.
Public Benefit
The Trustees are satisfied that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in providing home and work for those who are homeless and destitute under its objects, these being the alleviation of poverty, hardship and distress.
The activities that demonstrate public benefit are to be found in this Trustees’ Report.
Achievements and Performance
Community
At a time of rising homelessness in Bristol and nationally, it is important that we increase the number of homes we provide as well as the range of homes. In May 2021 we gained planning permission for 15 new eco homes on the roof of Backfields House. Sadly, this project came to an end in 2023, as further investigation found it to be financially unviable. We continue to look for innovative ways to expand our accommodation. Because of this we are now behind on our five-year plan objective to build or acquire more new homes for people in housing need.

EMMAUS BRISTOL
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Average occupancy of Companion, move-on and family homes remained high over the year at 94% (95% in 2022). Our housing rental income for the year was £210,210 (2022: £208,026).
Eight Companions moved on into safe external or move-on accommodation (five in 2022) and two gained paid employment externally (three in 2022). Move-on to employment remains very difficult. A Companion moving out for a minimum wage job would be financially worse off than staying at Emmaus and would face considerably higher risks. The loss of a private rental tenancy is currently the single biggest cause of homelessness.
100% of Companions and other residents successfully managed their licence agreement/ tenancy and/or moved on successfully with no-one leaving in chaotic circumstances or being asked to leave, compared to 99% in 2022.
We received 85 referrals over the year, from people wanting to live in the Emmaus Bristol community, of which five moved in (44 referrals in 2022 of which five moved in). This almost doubling of referrals reflects growing homelessness and, towards the end of the year, increasing numbers of refugees and other migrants leaving government accommodation with nowhere to go.
Emmaus Bristol support staff use the Homelessness Outcomes Star with Companions to measure the progress they are making during their time at Emmaus Bristol. Outcome Star sessions provide a useful time to talk with Companions and support them to self-assess their wellbeing and life skills progress. Categories include managing money, offending, drug and alcohol misuse, self-care and living skills, social networks and relationships, managing accommodation, physical health, mental health, motivation and taking responsibility, and meaningful use of time.
This year Companion scores improved in the following areas: motivation and taking responsibility, meaningful use of time, managing tenancy, money management and self-care and living skills. Companions scores in physical health have slightly reduced. The rest of the scores have stayed the same. Having noted the reduction in physical health scores among some Companions, we are initiating a Wellness Campaign at Emmaus Bristol, focusing on physical health.
Our work to become a trauma informed organisation continues, and progress is in line with our five-year plan and has included training for staff and Companions, with roll-out to trustees planned for 2024.
Social Enterprises
The income from shop sales and the provision of other services for the year was £318,962 (2022: £284,999). This 12% increase in sales reflects the hard work of the whole team, investment in our ebay operation, and the launch of our eco holidays pods.
We closed our Vintage shop during the year due to low sales, and opened a temporary pop-up in Sparks, the sustainability hub which opened in the old Marks and Spencer building in Bristol City Centre.
Our social enterprises are primary purpose, so as well as generating an income for the charity, they provide work experience, linked training, structure and an opportunity to help others, for people who have experienced homelessness.
Our latest enterprise, two eco holiday pods, were completed and launched in the year, and have so far exceeded their income targets as well as providing an ethical place for visitors to stay in Bristol City Centre. Reviews have been excellent. Crucially, they also provide training opportunities for Companions who were actively involved in furnishing and decorating them, including with some of their own upcycled pieces. We

learnt that we were unable to provide the level of service required with the staff and Companion capacity we have, and consequently outsourced the bookings and cleaning.
This year we developed in-work support with the introduction of work coaching, with the aim of helping Companions (and other beneficiaries) settle in to their roles, learn on the job, and thrive in their work.
We were delighted to be able to re-introduce community payback, and to welcome interns with learning difficulties on an employment programme with Bristol City College. We continue to look for partnerships where we can provide work experience and training opportunities for other unemployed people, and have learned that due to our limited capacity at present, this works best when the volunteers come with a support worker or work coach.
Business Incubator
Emmaus Bristol continues to offer affordable office space to youth empowerment social enterprise Babassa, which supports young people with training and employment opportunities.
We also provide a work space to the charity Legs for Africa which collects and exports prosthetics, helping amputees to live more independent fulfilled lives.
Volunteers and Donors
The work of Emmaus Bristol would not be possible without the generous amount of time given by, and donations received from, individuals, groups and companies.
We are particularly grateful to the regular volunteers who gave their time throughout the year and who bring a wealth of skills and experience to help Emmaus Bristol.
Financial review
The main costs are employee costs, the operating costs of the premises and Companion costs including allowances.
The results for the year are set out on page 13. The net income for the year amounted to a consolidated deficit of £138,334 (2022: surplus £3,424). Total funds at 30 June 2023 amounted to £1,854,468 (2022: £1,992,802). This decrease in funds in part relates to a £54,878 write-back of previously capitalised costs relating to our Homes on the Roof project, which came to a stop at the end of the year and will not be built. In part the decrease relates to inflationary increases in costs which outpace the increase in income we were able to achieve.
High inflation continues to add to our costs, particularly energy and buildings repairs and maintenance. Utilities costs have more than doubled in the last two years.
Reserves Policy
The group aims to retain adequate reserves to fund both fixed assets and working capital. It is the Trustees’ view that working capital reserves amounting to three months’ expenditure are adequate.
The amounts held at 30 June 2023 totalled £1,854,468 (2022: £1,992,802).

EMMAUS BRISTOL
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Of these, restricted funds amounted to £414,265 (2022: £406,695). Designated funds amounted to £1,317,867 (2022: £1,454,591).
The majority of the designated funds relate to the net book value of Shaftesbury House and Backfields House together with an amount from general funds for the balance of the purchase price and the net book value of all other fixed assets. This designated fund will be spent down over the useful life of the assets.
Free reserves i.e. those not tied up in fixed assets, designated funds or restricted funds, amounted to £122,336 (2022: £131,516). Three months’ expenditure (excluding depreciation and the disposal of fixed assets) at 2022 levels is £188,627, as such, we have 1.8 months’ reserves and are not currently meeting our reserves policy. Reserves are likely to deplete further in 2023 as inflation means that expenditure is expected to continue to grow at a faster rate than income. The board will be working with the senior management team on a plan to build back our reserves.
Leasehold Commitments
In April 2008 we entered into a lease for 72 Bedminster Parade. This lease is now running on a rolling one-month basis. The lease for our Gloucester Road shop we ended in April 2023.
We have peppercorn ten-year leases with Bristol City Council for four three-bed houses locally. We have a lease on a 2-bed in St George for which we pay rent based on the Local Housing Allowance rate.
Principle Funding
The charity’s main sources of income have been:
-
Social enterprise income £318,962, 42% (2022: £284,999, 40%)
-
Rent receivable, £234,997, 31% (2022: £210,606, 30%)
-
Donations, £78,094, 10% (2022: £92,022, 13%)
-
Grants £121,744, 16% (2022: £124,195 17%)
Social enterprise and Rental income have increased on last year, however, Donations and Grants have fallen.
Fundraising
During the financial year, Emmaus Bristol did not use third parties for any fundraising on its behalf. Some companies carried out their own activities to raise money for the charity, for example, Blind Owl Coffee sold an Emmaus blend and donated a portion of the profits to us.
The charity accepts donations from individuals, organisations and trusts and keeps in touch with donors with their express permission in compliance with the general data protection regulations (GDPR). The charity has not voluntarily subscribed to any fundraising standards or scheme for fundraising regulation. No complaints have been received by the charity in respect of its fundraising activity for the year. Emmaus Bristol protects vulnerable and other persons from undue pressure to donate, unreasonably persistent fundraising and unreasonable intrusion on their privacy by only

contacting people we have their consent to, for example sending our newsletter with a donation request to those people who have requested to receive it, and limiting the use of collection tins to our own premises and events being held on our behalf.

Plans for the Future
Our plans for the next five years include working to:

-
Provide work experience and training opportunities to others in need of work skills; non-residential Companions;

Structure, Governance and Management
Structure of Emmaus Bristol
Emmaus Bristol is a company limited by guarantee. It was incorporated on 10 June 1998 and was registered as a charity on 15 September 1998 (Registered Charity No 1071538). It is part of a national federation of which Emmaus UK is the national legal body. Its governing instrument is its Memorandum of Association dated 30 April 1998.
Decisions of significant matters of both policy and finance are made by the Trustees. Papers are presented to the Board of Trustees by either a Trustee or senior Emmaus staff, and voted upon by the Trustees. Professional advice is sought where appropriate.
Trustees and Directors
The Trustees shown on page 1 have held office since 1 July 2022 to date, other than where indicated.
Emmaus Bristol seeks to provide a sufficient balance of skills to run a charity of its nature. When the need for an additional skill arises, appropriate people are interviewed and their CVs considered. An invitation to come to Trustees meetings for a trial period would then be made in order to provide familiarisation with the ethos of the charity, and in due course a vote would be taken on Trustee appointment. Trustee appointments are subject to review.
Emmaus works on the principles Good Governance: a Code for the Voluntary and Community Sector. All Trustees are asked to familiarise themselves with the code. Trustees are offered governance training either locally or through Emmaus UK when these become available. All Trustees are encouraged to visit other communities and attend an Emmaus UK induction programme.
Key Management Personnel Remuneration
The Trustees consider that the Board of Trustees and the Chief Executive comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing, controlling and operating the charity on a day-to-day basis. All Trustees give of their time freely. The pay of all staff including the Chief Executive is reviewed annually by the Trustees, taking into account a number of factors such as the present cost of living index, the financial position of the charity and remuneration for equivalent roles within the charity sector in organisations of a similar size and income.

Subsidiaries
Emmaus Bristol owns 100% of the share capital of Emmaus Bristol (Enterprises) Limited. The principal activity of the company is to provide accommodation for the Companions of Emmaus Bristol but also includes provision of accommodation for other formerly homeless persons and former Companions. During the year the company made a surplus of £82,544 (2022: 74,248). The company made distributions to the charity of £74,248 (2022: £55,338) from current profits.
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also directors of Emmaus Bristol for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report (incorporating the strategic report and directors’ report) and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom 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 the group and of the income and expenditure, of the charitable company and group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
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 adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and 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 the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Emmaus Bristol Trustee Board averaged six members during the year. Through active recruitment it is seeking suitable additional Trustees who have a wide range of skills and experience to bring to the charity.
Management liability including Trustees indemnity provision for up to £2m is included in the total insurance bill.
The Trustees have prepared this report in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Emmaus Bristol (‘the Company’)
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company and its trading subsidiary for the year ended 30 June 2023.
.
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 consolidated 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 the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and consolidated accounts have been prepared on a voluntary basis, your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and 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 and its subsidiary 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.

The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis.
Going concern
The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of provision of housing is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met.
Interest receivable
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 or payable by the bank.
Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not have been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
Allocation of support cost
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs associated with the governance of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity's activities. These costs have been allocated in full to charitable activities.

Freehold property 50 years Leasehold property lower of length of lease and 50 years Computer equipment 3 years Fixtures and fittings 3 years Motor vehicles 3 years Holiday pods 30 years
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £1,000.

Pension costs
The company operates a defined benefit contribution pension scheme for its employees. There is no further liabilities other than that already recognised in the SOFA.
Accounting estimates and key judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions the accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The key source of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are depreciation as described in the note above.
