**NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **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** 

## **Objects** 

The charity’s Memorandum of Association states the charity’s objects as being "to promote any charitable purpose for the benefit of the community in the local government district of North Tyneside, and in particular the advancement of education, the protection of health and the relief of poverty, distress and sickness and in the furtherance of the said purposes but not further or otherwise to promote and organise co-operation in the achievement of the same and to that end to bring together in council representatives of the voluntary organisations and statutory authorities and agencies." 

## **Strategic Objectives** 

The charity works to support volunteers and community organisations in North Tyneside to maximise their impact. VODA does this by pursuing the following objectives: 

- Providing a full range of high quality core services free to volunteers and voluntary and community organisations. 

- Directly delivering programmes that enable volunteers to support local residents and voluntary and community organisations. 

- Providing a number of chargeable services that are in demand but which lie outside of our free core services. 

- Ensuring the VCS has a strong voice, is respected and is involved in decision making as an equal partner. 

- Facilitating stronger mutually beneficial partnerships between VCS organisations, and other sectors. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The charity exists for the public benefit. VODA believes that volunteers and community organisations change people’s lives for the better. By delivering the strategic objective listed above the charity is contributing to a borough in which residents have access to good quality support services and are able to play an active role in supporting the health and wellbeing of others.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Objective One - Providing a full range of high-quality core services free to volunteers and voluntary and community organisations** 

VODA issued 22 e-bulletins to an audience of circa 1500 subscribers. VODA's Facebook page reached 87,000 groups and individuals and the VODA website served 35,500 users. 

To help upskill the VCSE sector workforce VODA launched a new online training portal, called Elements, in partnership with Connected Voice and Northumberland CVA. The first course, Good Governance, received over 200 enrolments. 

253 free advice sessions were provided to 87 different groups covering areas such as funding, development, employment and finance. The majority of groups benefitting from this support were micro groups with no paid staff. 

VODA's Volunteer Centre responded to 470 enquiries from local residents, providing access to 147 volunteering opportunities on behalf of 69 different organisations. VODA also developed an initiative working with Connected Voice, Newcastle Volunteer Centre and Northumberland Community Voluntary Action to create an area of excellence for volunteering across the North of Tyne Combined Authority area (Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland). 

VODA's Sector Connector project provided opportunities for local businesses to offer their support to VCSE sector organisations. 

## **Objective Two - Directly delivering programmes that enable volunteers to support local residents and voluntary and community organisations** 

The Good Neighbours project enabled 203 volunteers to support 570 local residents with neighbourly tasks such as shopping and prescription collections as well as providing social support. A total of 1,709 volunteer hours were provided. 

A series of hands-on micro-volunteering opportunities were delivered to enable people to get a taste of volunteering, helping them to overcome barriers to volunteering such as a lack of skills and confidence. 

The NT LIFE Recovery College relocated to Meadow Well Connected and offered a programme of coproduced and co-delivered courses covering everything from Woodland Wellbeing to Mindfulness and Relaxation.

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE - continued** 

## **Objective Three - Providing a number of chargeable services that are in demand but which lie outside of our free core services** 

VODA's Finance Team supported 32 payroll clients and produced year-end accounts for 31 organisations. VODA's staff team also offered consultancy and multi-media support to member organisations and public sector partners. 

## **Objective Four - Ensuring the VCS has a strong voice, is respected and is involved in decision making as an equal partner** 

VODA continued to attend and contribute to a multitude of strategic and operational meetings to ensure the voluntary sector is able to influence work across the borough. Meetings attended include North Tyneside Cabinet, North Tyneside Strategic Partnership, Future Care Board, North of Tyne VCSE Stakeholder group, Community Mental Health Transformation group and North Tyneside Business Forum. 

VODA worked with Helix Arts and North Tyneside Council to give residents of North Tyneside the opportunity to share their personal stories of living through a pandemic. Helix Arts led participants in a series of conversations and creative workshops to capture their experiences. 

## **Objective Five - Facilitating stronger mutually beneficial partnerships between VCS organisations and other sectors** 

A programme of online Working With the VCS events were facilitated in partnership with North Tyneside Council to provide an opportunity for VCSE sector organisations to come together with external partners to focus on key issues and receive updates. This included four locality events to introduce the new Primary Care Networks to the VCSE sector. 

The new Living Well North Tyneside online platform was launched, helping to connect local communities with trusted information, services, activities and events. This work was led by VODA alongside a partnership of HealthWatch North Tyneside, North Tyneside CCG, North Tyneside Council, all four Primary Care Networks, Tyne Health, and the Community and Healthcare Forum. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

At the balance sheet date, the charity held funds of £604,604 (2021 - £490,676) of which £280,042 (2021 - £240,343) was subject to restriction. Free reserves amounted to £281,215 (2021 - £195,872). Details of designations and the charity's reserves policy can be found below. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Continued support from North Tyneside Council for core activities has enabled the charity to secure funding from a range of different sources, both in terms of grants and contracts.The trustees are grateful to all VODA's funders, details of whom can be found in the accounts.

**NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued** 

## **Other income sources** 

Developing income streams other than grants and contracts is increasingly important for the future financial stability of the organisation. VODA has pursued opportunities for the generation of earned income during the reporting year, particularly in the fields of film-making and finance services. 

## **Investment policy** 

Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year, most of the charity's funds are to be spent in the short term, mainly to support the cash flow situation. Having considered the options available the trustees have decided that any surplus funds should be transferred to an appropriate interest bearing account on a regular basis. The transfer is managed by the Finance Officer and Chief Executive, and all trustees are updated on income generated as part of the normal financial reporting procedure. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The trustees have examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. In recognition of the significant number of projects which the organisation operates, the trustees have established a policy whereby unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be six months of core running costs. 

In addition, VODA has a designated fund - The Legal Liability Fund, which will cover winding up and redundancy costs. Our most recent calculations show that we must set aside £43,347 for this. This is reviewed on an annual basis. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

The charity plans to continue furthering the strategic objective outlined above in the forthcoming years subject to satisfactory funding arrangements. The trustees have recognised that given the current financial climate it is necessary to regularly review the services VODA offers, and deliver them more efficiently and effectively wherever possible. Partnership working and collaboration will continue to be an important part of VODA's work. 

Trustees are aware of the potential risks which the organisation is exposed to when taking on a lead body status for any new contracts, and policies and procedures have been developed to mitigate this risk. Senior staff update trustees on any potential risks before developing new partnerships. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 28 January 1999 and registered as a charity on 12 April 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. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

The trustees of the charitable company are also charity trustees for the purposes of Charity Law. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, one third of the Directors must stand down each year, those longest in office retiring first and the choice between any of equal service being made by drawing lots.

During the year new groups and individuals were welcomed into membership and all members were invited to nominate new Board members. 

## **Organisational structure** 

North Tyneside VODA has a Board of Trustees of between 3 and 18 members who meet 6 times per annum and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. In addition the trustees are involved in a finance sub-committee. 

## **Operational management** 

A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the management of the organisation and the provision of its services rests with the Chief Executive and management team. 

## **Induction and training of new trustees** 

All new trustees are invited and encouraged to attend a short induction session to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates. This is jointly led by the Chair of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive and covers: 

- The obligations of Board Members both as charity trustees and directors of the company. 

- The history and current activities of the organisation. 

- The structure and work of the Board, including sub-committees and advisory groups. 

- Resourcing and current financial position.

In addition an annual health and safety risk assessment is undertaken and reviewed in detail by the Board. A risk management and disaster recovery framework was developed in 2006. VODA continues to work with its insurers to minimise risks. 

Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of policies and procedures, which are subject to an annual review.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of North Tyneside Voluntary Organisations Development Agency 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. 

In so far as the trustees are aware: 

- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and 

- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information. 

## **AUDITORS** 

The auditors,  Read, Milburn & Co, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. 

Approved by order of the board of trustees on 14 October 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of North Tyneside Voluntary Organisations Development Agency (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 19 to the financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.  We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Page 8 



## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Page 9 



## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion.  Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. In this regard, our procedures include the following: 

- enquiry of management around actual and potential litigation and claims; 

- reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; 

- reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors. 

## **Other matters which we are required to address** 

The prior year's financial statements were not audited as the charitable company's income was below the exemption threshold. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**NORTH TYNESIDE VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS DEVELOPMENT AGENCY** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **1. 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 presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). 

## **Going Concern** 

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. In the opinion of trustees, no material uncertainties exist about the charity's ability to continue. 

## **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, the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

## **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. 

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure. 

## **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. 

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

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
