Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Purposes and aims

Our charity's objectives as set out in the company’s Memorandum and Articles are to ‘relieve disabled persons in the London Borough of Richmond and elsewhere’.

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID) is a charity and exists to provide information and advice and services to disabled persons, their families, friends, carers and professionals within the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (LBRuT) and the surrounding areas, and to manage and maintain the Disability Action and Advice Centre at 4, Waldegrave Road, Teddington, Middlesex, TW11 8HT.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

The trustees review our objectives and activities on an annual basis, and ensure these meet the goals and priorities as set out in the business plan. The CEO and managers submit reports on projects for trustee meetings and the business plan as a whole is reviewed annually. In carrying out this review and in planning future activities the trustees have taken into account the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

Our strategic goals

Our business plan states that to achieve our vision of independence and choice for people with disabilities, we will:

1) Increase their sense of financial security

2) Increase employment, education and leisure opportunities

3) Widen access to high quality information and advice

4) Improve access to services 5) Ensure disabled people havea strong voice locally

6) Understand, track and respond to changing needs

7) Raise awareness about disability among employers and service providers

How our activities deliver public benefit

Our main activities and who we help are described below. The Trustees believe that all of our charitable activities support disabled people to have the same opportunities as non-disabled people and to lead fulfilling and independent lives.

We estimate there are around 20,000 disabled people living in the London Borough of Richmond of Thames. We support over 3,000 clients each year. The majority of our clients and services are in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.

We work with disabled people and carers of all ages and across all disabilities including physical and sensory disability, learning disabilities and mental health.

We deliver a variety of services including advice services such as Information Navigation, Benefits Advice, Money Advice, Job Club, Counselling and social inclusion activities such as BuddyUp and our Peer Network. Our services are based on needs identified by our clients or grants and commissioning opportunities.

Page 3

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID) Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

We receive a wide range of referrals from housing associations, social care and other local authority services, mental health services, learning disability services, hospitals, GP practices, Job Centre Plus and local voluntary sector services.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Main Sources of Funding

Richmond AID continued to provide services throughout the 20-21 financial year. Additional funding was sourced and new services were set up to support our clients with the challenges of Coronavirus. There was an increase in funding from £635,832 in 2020 to £735,910 in 2021, the reason for the increase was one off income for providing services during the pandemic, and an increase in charitable expenditure from £602,871 in 2020 to £720,868 in 2021. Unrestricted general funds have increased to £324,870 (2020: £309,667) and designated funds decreased to £36,000 (2020: £36,161).

Impact of Coronavirus on the Charity

Richmond AID had increased demand for services, in particular our advice services. New needs emerged such as support with shopping and prescriptions, telephone befriending and support with accessing affordable food. We were able to secure additional funding to develop new services and support increased service delivery for existing services. None of our staff were put on furlough and key staff were retained. We had large numbers of volunteers to support us in our delivery, many of whom have now returned to work. Though our offices were closed to the public, we remained operational throughout for service delivery, in particular the food hub, with the support of a small staff team. Other staff members were able to deliver remotely. We were also entrusted by the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames borough council and Achieving for Children to award emergency grants to clients in need of food and essentials. Despite being extremely busy and feeling under pressure, staff morale remains high. We are now looking forward to increasing our face to face delivery and support in line with government guidance. We have adapted our COVID 19 Infection Control Policy and Risk Assessment for our services as needed.

Reserves Policy

The objectives of the reserves policy are to:

  1. Safeguard the long-term financial sustainability of the Charity by maintaining a minimum level of general reserves to address specific risks;

  2. Set aside, and then release, resources to fund future plans; and

  3. Ensure there are sufficient funds to pay staff and any outstanding debts in the event of a temporary reduction in the scale of our activities or closure.

The trustees have concluded that they should retain reserves to meet four to six months of total expenditure, currently a range from £250,264 to £360,396. A further £36,000 is designated for advice services in 2021-22.

General unrestricted reserves at 31st March 2021 were £324,870 (2020: £309,667).

We also believe this level of reserves is what our funders and commissioners expect from a charity delivering services on their behalf in order to provide assurance of the viability of the organisation over the course of a multi-year contract.

Investment Activities

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID) does not have any long-term investments. Our cash reserves are held in deposit accounts.

Risk Policy

The trustees follow the Charity Commission’s recommended approach to risk management and review the risks to which the charitable company is exposed. Each significant risk has a definition and a score and is regularly reviewed by the trustees to ensure that systems have been established to mitigate against those risks. In particular, insurance is in place and finances are closely monitored, personnel checks are carried out and safeguarding policies and procedures are implemented. Other risks that have been assessed are loss of key personnel, both staff and trustees, and loss of access to our premises. The trustees are satisfied that systems are in place to manage risks that have been identified.

Plans for future periods

The charity aspires to continue all of our commissioned and grant funded services. We have transitioned the services we set up during the pandemic and developed new models of delivery. For example, we now offer limited support for shopping and prescriptions as demand has increased and our food hub has developed into a surplus food stall outside the building. Our telephone befriending is changing to walking groups. We are currently delivering a mix of face to face and remote services and making changes in line with government advice.

We had planned to hold a number of consultation events in 2020 to gather information for our next Business Plan. Due to the pandemic face to face events were postponed and we focused on service delivery as we were extremely busy. We are now actively working on our new business plan and conducting a Client Survey and feedback on services for client input. We will continue to seek further funding to develop new services based on demand.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 10th August 1998 and re-registered as a charity on 23rd March 1999. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association, as amended in March 2015.

Trustees and members guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charitable company in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31st March 2021 was 62 (2020: 63).

The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year are included on the legal and administrative page.

Page 5

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID)

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The existing trustees are responsible for the selection of new trustees. Under our governing documents 51% or more of the board must be disabled or a carer for a disabled person. In selecting trustees we ensure we choose people who are passionate and knowledgeable about disability issues. Often we will become aware of a potential trustee as they may have been a service user or volunteer. Potential trustees are invited to attend a number of meetings as observers and then if all agree are co-opted as members at the next meeting. This process allows due consideration for the person’s skills, eligibility, personal competence and specialist knowledge to be taken into account and enables them to make a more informed decision.

Under our Articles, one third of the trustees are required to stand down every two years but are eligible for re-election.

New Trustees Joanne Atkinson and Venna Roden were appointed on 24th April 2020.

Organisational Structure

Trustees have full responsibility for decisions affecting the governance and strategy of the organisation. Trustees give their time freely and receive no remuneration or other financial benefits. Trustees meet around every six weeks and have a number of sub-committees that meet to cover various areas of governance including finance, policies and procedures, human resources and quality assurance. Trustees have overall responsibility for approving the budget, the yearly financial statements, salaries and expenses, and any transfers at the end of the year.

Additional areas that trustees cover include:

  1. Reviewing the business plan and ensuring that the strategy agreed is being achieved 2. Reviewing and amending the Memorandum and Articles 3. Overseeing the Risk Assessment of the organisation

  2. Receiving reports on the performance of services

  3. Ensuring that monitoring of Health and Safety is carried out 6. Checking that policies such as Data Protection and Safeguarding are implemented

Operational matters concerning the management of projects and the day to day running of the Disability Action and Advice Centre building are delegated to the Chief Executive who then decides what further delegation needs to be made to the Managers.

Board of Trustees Induction and Training

The chair of trustees takes responsibility for the induction of new trustees. All trustees are required to go through induction training that clearly sets out the responsibilities and duties of the Board and also covers the activities and policies of the organisation. A number of publications from the Charity Commission are also provided and include guidance on public benefit. This ensures that trustees are aware of their responsibilities under the Charities Act. We also recommend that trustees attend Understanding Governance training delivered by Richmond Council for Voluntary Services. There is an annual skills audit which invites Trustees to set further training requirements.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees (who are also the directors of Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID) 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) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland"

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

  1. Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 2. observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 3. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 4. 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

Al: CHARITY INFORMATION

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID) is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.

The registered office is shown on the legal and administrative information page. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are included in the Trustees’ report.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

INCOME

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Income (i.e. donations and fundraising) is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when it is more likely than not that it will be received. Donations of goods and services ‘in kind’ are included in income, to the extent that they represent goods or services that would have otherwise been purchased. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included.

Annual grants are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities for the period to which they apply. In the case of the grants received in the year, any portion relating to future periods is carried forward as deferred income.

Page 13

Richmond Advice and Information on Disability (RAID)

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

EXPENDITURE

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Central support costs, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, are apportioned on the basis of staff time and the amount attributed to each activity in accordance with the requirements of the SORP. Governance costs comprise all costs relating to the public accountability of the charitable company and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs relating to the statutory independent examination.

TAXATION

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

FUND ACCOUNTING

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Designated funds are funds set aside by the Board of Management out of unrestricted general funds for specific purposes or projects.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

GOING CONCERN

At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
