1. AIMS, OBJECTS & ANNUAL PERFORMANCE

AIM:

To create a state-of-the-art, community resource to promote the physical, social, cultural and economic betterment of the Toxteth area.

CHARITABLE STATUS & OBJECTS

The company was incorporated under the Companies Act 1985, under the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 23 April 1997, as amended by special resolution dated 15 June 1999, and was registered as a charity in accordance with this governing document on 6 July 1999. A further amendment was made in Dec 06 under special resolution with an addition to the charity’s objects – refer to object c.

The objects of the charity are: -

a) To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Toxteth and the neighbourhood thereof (hereinafter called “the area of benefit”) without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race, or of political, religious, or other opinions, by associating together the said inhabitants and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare, for recreation and other leisure-time occupation with the object of improving conditions of life for the said inhabitants;
b) To establish or secure the establishment of a community centre, and to maintain and manage the same, whether alone, or in co-operation with any local authority, or other person or body, in furtherance of these objects
c) To promote the efficiency and effectiveness of charities and the promotion of the effective use of resources for charitable purposes by charitable and non charitable bodies in the Toxteth area but not exclusively, by the provision or by procuring the provision of accommodation, information, assistance and other support services

THE CHARITY

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

The charitable company was established to manage Toxteth Town Hall Community Resource Centre. The charity provides advocacy, organises, hosts and delivers community events, training courses, workshops, community clubs and other activities at the centre, alone or in conjunction with other agencies. The charity also delivers heritage and volunteering projects. Space is let out under licence agreements to other charities or community organisations whose service and facilities would be of benefit to the residents within our area of benefit – Toxteth. In addition, a large community hall facility is available to be booked by groups for a range of purposes.

DMAC Ltd. purchased the 125 Year Head Lease on Toxteth Town Hall building in July 1997 but originally had it on a contract from May 1997. It was purchased for £80,000 fundraised from Dingle SRB and LCC Community Development Fund.

Charitable work and activities: Annual Report 1/4/21-31/3/22:

The year started with some government Covid measures in place, however from May 2021 we had returned to full on-site operations. I n the last 12 months the beneficiaries of our charity’s services and activities were 4085 individual (in person) beneficiaries and 3735 online beneficiaries. Of the 4085 individual beneficiaries they were supported in the following ways:

We issued 224 households in food crisis (circa 900 residents) with Food vouchers, and/or referred them for additional support to alternative food support (where they may have just a few pounds a week left for food).

We supported 2777 local residents walking in needing assistance. All are triaged by our staff upon arrival. This was double that of the previous year, however we knew this would be the case as we were coming out of the pandemic.

a) Approximately 35% accessed our own advocacy service. We supported them with pension credit applications, budgeting loan applications, school transfer applications, accessing Liverpool Citizens Support Scheme etc. This number also includes people accessing our Public Information Point/Digital Hub facility and use of our free phone. This gave them access to vital information they needed.
b) Approximately 40% required referral for formal advice to our partner Liverpool Community Advice (LCA) and to Whitechapel (on site homelessness charity). We completed referral forms and arranged appointments for advice or housing support, on and off-site.
c) The remaining 25% were signposted to external agencies such as One Stop Shop / Council, MP, Age UK etc.

We held an IT and Employability course on-site consisting of 10 sessions (3hrs per session). We had 13 students referred to the course, of them:

4 completed their level 1 qualification
1 student job applications and higher-level English course
2 students dropped out due to ill health
4 students attended towards the end of the course

We plan to reintroduce our Annual Heritage Open Days from 2023.

We had 14 Table tennis club members attending our weekly Monday club session, improving their fitness, friendships and overall wellbeing.

Our Adult Garden club members increased from 9 last years to 14 .They attended 49 on-site weekly club sessions run by Mike our Horticulturist. They sowed, grew and harvested a wide range of fruit, vegetables and herbs. The garden produces on average a meal a week for all members.

We had 41 Family Games Club members who attended 48 on-site weekly club sessions having lots of family fun indoors and outdoors, growing food, creating crafts, making friends and feeling better. Sudipta was Activity Coordinator until 31[st] Oct 21 when Sam, as an interim staff member, covered the role until 31/1/22 when Hyatt joined us, our present Activity Coordinator.

Activities and Craft Roasting chestnuts and sweet corn Harvesting

Wreath making Mummy/Daddy wrap Halloween Party

We had 1002 residents access Covid Vaccinations on site, working with the NHS and their volunteers.

These clinics were held outside on an adapted Bus during the summer periods and inside in our Community Hall in the winter.

We had 1093 Facebook & 2642 Twitter followers who received regular Covid-19 information and other crisis and support services information.

THE THOMPSON COMMUNITY HALL

Our centre holds no religious or political affiliation and so is accessible to the diverse communities within our area of benefit. The Centre enables events to take place and directly assists with the capacity building of new groups by allowing them access to the facility. It has been through these events and current user feedback, which has assisted our organisation in identifying the barriers that exist. We are already attempting to address these barriers by the way in which we operate, our publicity materials and delivery of the events, and we will always continue to do so. A wide range of external organisations and groups for various activities also uses the hall regularly. During the pandemic this use reduced by over 90%. We saw some recovery in this financial year, circa 45%, but not to pre-pandemic levels yet. We hope the hire and use will return as we continue to recover following the effects of the pandemic.

Income is generated and raised through:

Applying for Grants, Donations or Contracts for delivery of our community programmes and charitable activities and services.
Licence/Lease fees charged to the centre based organisations and through the hiring of the hall/rooms. This enables the charity to cover the majority of the overheads and running costs of the building. These fees and other small grants contribute towards the costs of the staff and overheads as we are not yet fully self sustainable.

Funding and Support:

In the financial period Apr 21 to Mar 22 as detailed in the accounts appended, our thanks go to the following funders who have supported our charitable work, community programme including courses and clubs, our Covid response, equipment and materials, and core running costs as follows:

Ø John Moores Foundation £3000 towards our Activity Co-ordinator
Ø Torus Foundation £2100 to deliver courses (IT and Employability)
Ø LCVS £2000 towards core costs
Ø Pilkington Charities Fund £4000 towards our overall chartable programme
Ø Duchy of Lancaster Benevolent Fund £2500 awarded to be carried forward to 22/23 financial year to deliver 2 more courses (IT and Employability)

NOTE:

§ Power to Change for core running costs (the majority was carried forward as restricted funds held in our account from our 20 21 financial year)
§ Garfield Weston Foundation towards core running costs (funds carried forward to support 21/22 year from original award in 2019 held in account from 20/21 as restricted funds).

2. History & Heritage

HISTORY OF TOXTETH

In the mid 1500’s Toxteth was a Deer Park under the ownership of King John. The many Earls of Sefton had residency in Toxteth and owned a number of properties. Toxteth Park was a vast area spanning from the shore and included areas we know now as Otterspool, Smithdown Road, Aigburth Vale, and Mossley Hill amongst others. This has been identified from a number of maps. (Source – Liverpool Public Library).

HISTORY OF THE BUILDING

The information accessible is very limited. Sources that we have referred to and relied upon to produce this page include the Public Library and verbal anecdotes from visitors to the centre. Toxteth Town Hall Community Resource Centre (its title now) is based in the heart of Toxteth. The building was built in 1865-6 and was designed by Layland (Architect). Its original title was “The Township of Toxteth Park Public Offices”, known locally then as the "Town Hall. It has played a major role in the civic life of the area. During its history its uses include the following:

Registry Office (Births & Deaths only) Medical Dispensary, Morgue, Coroners Inquests, Services for the Destitute,

Means testing, Hardship Support, Food Dispensary, Police cells (war time), Dispensary of School Uniforms,

Community Meetings, Health & Social Security & Department of Unemployment amongst other uses.

If you have any memories and/or information on the building we would welcome your input to build up a comprehensive picture. Contact us at the centre.

HERITAGE

In 1969 the English Heritage awarded the building with Grade 2 listed status. The front and side facades are of sandstone, the rest brick. It has a number of pediments with Venetian windows. There are large sashes in moulded architraves.

Internally the community hall has wonderful detailed plaster works to the walls and ceiling and a plaque of a stag that was donated by The Earl Of Sefton when the building was constructed. (Source: Conservation Office LCC).

Chairs Report 2021-2022

I bid you all welcome to the 25[th] Annual General Meeting of Dingle Multi Agency Centre Ltd. This meeting gives us the opportunity of giving a review of our activities over the past. Under our revised membership structure introduced in 2021, we now have a formal and informal organisational membership.

Once again, I would like to take this opportunity of thanking all my fellow Trustees and all staff members of the Charity for the hard and dedicated efforts they have made to ensure that DMAC Ltd has continued to offer a high quality service to our members and all users of the facilities here.

REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2021 to 2022

As you are already aware our core objectives include providing support, services and activities to local residents (for full details please see pages 4 and 5). Additionally, we provide office/hire accommodation to a range of charities and non-profit making organisations and business startups that serve the local community in a variety of ways and at a price they can afford. This is all delivered from our building – Toxteth Town Hall Community Resource Centre and our developed green space on our rear land, in L8. The interest in one off hall and room bookings, however, has been greatly affected by the pandemic and whilst we have seen some recovery, income levels from these streams have not returned to pre-pandemic levels.

Again, we owe a great debt of thanks to Denise Bernard, our Company Secretary, for the work she has been involved in to secure on-going financial assistance. There are a number of small grant applications pending for the next financial year to support the projected shortfall. The Board of Trustees and staff have all made strenuous efforts to keep us on an even keel, which has contributed to in increased use of our facilities. The Board continues to monitor our expenses and maximise efficiencies. Once again, Liverpool City Council awarded us with very much needed discretionary rates relief.

THE BOARD

This is my thirteenth year of chairing of the Board of Trustees and we're still here. There have been no changes to the Board this year and I am delighted to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of the Trustees for their wonderful efforts on behalf of DMAC Ltd.

FUNDERS

As I have already mentioned we have bids in with several funders to support our on-going work. In this reporting period we give our thanks to: John Moores Foundation, The Torus Foundation, LCVS, Pilkington Charities Fund, Duchy of Lancaster Benevolent Fund.

OCCUPANCY/ CENTRE BASED ORGANISATIONS (CBO’S)

As I previously stated our office rental occupancy (not sessional hire) level runs at near capacity. We are pleased to welcome to the Centre EAC Hub Ltd, Personal Success, Back to Life Liverpool Ltd, Breaking Down Barriers SC CIC and Envi Hairdressing, and we wish them success for the future. As I write this report two separate organisations are expressing interest in the last remaining space that we have. We hope to have this let before Dec 2022 giving us much needed income.

MEMBER ORGANISATIONS

Following on from the membership restructure in Autumn 2021, we approved 5 organisations to become formal organisational members with voting rights at an AGM or EGM.

STAFF/PERSONNEL

Interim Management of our Centre is under a sessional contract for service (2 days a week) with MEC Ltd and have done so with excellent efficiency, as is apparent from this report.

We still have the continuity given by Cala Comer who does a wonderful job dealing with the numerous and varied requests for help at Reception and the caretaking so necessary in a building of the age and size of ours is still carried out by George Williams. Our old friend Jon Kwao is still assisting us on a part time basis. Joseph Lussamaki, who had to leave us because of other work commitments, has been replaced by Saynab Ali and we hope that her stay with us will be long and happy. Sudipta Dash had to leave us in October 2021, however her position as our sessional Activity Co-ordinator has been taken over by Hyatt Murshid who seems to thoroughly enjoy the role. Mike McGrath remains as our sessional Horticulturist doing a great job with our Community Garden and food-growing clubs.

All these members of staff/personnel have given of their best over the past year and we would like to express our sincere thanks and gratitude in keeping this Centre safe, accessible and having a great welcoming atmosphere.

As stated Denise remains as Company Secretary and is still assisting in fund raising. Again heartfelt thanks to her for her continuing and vital efforts. Proper Staff appraisals and assessments are on going and have shown that all staff members are fully content with their positions within the Organisation and are basically able to fulfil their duties. On-going training is always a consideration, and members of staff and the board have attended various training courses over the year.

COVID

Covid doesn’t seem to be the killer that it was but no one should forget that it is still with us. The staff at this Centre know that the rules and policies that we put in place at the height of the pandemic are in part still being adhered to and the Building has and is being used by the NHS to provide Covid vaccination and Health checks.

IN CONCLUSION

Our services, activities and programmes are popular locally. Office space in our Building is still in high demand and we have managed to sustain full operations with the support of grant funding giving us time to rebuild and increase our level of self-generating income. With the continuing assistance of the staff, the selfless work of the Trustees and of course the boundless energy of our Company Secretary; we have kept the DMAC flag flying as high and as proud as ever.

Martin K Davies,

Chair of the Board of Trustees.

4. Trustees Financial Report & Annual Accounts 21/22 (appended)

The accounts enclosed are for the financial period 1/4/21 to 31/3/22 and are an accurate account of the financial activities of the charity for this period.

FINANCE:

The Statement of Financial Activities shows net income for the year of £34,081 (it is worth noting that the charity had carried forward from 20/21 £29,776 in current assets to support this 21/22 financial year). £10,692 of the total expenditure relates to depreciation of fixed assets. Excluding depreciation and restricted funding the charity had a net expenditure of £9,725. The charity carries forward an unrestricted fund balance of £30.204 which is both fixed and current assets (£970) see note 13 in our Independently Examined Financial statements; a designated fund balance of £125,455 (fixed assets only) and; a restricted fund balance of £26,253 that is both fixed and current assets (£5417). The designated balance represents the fixed assets of the charity (i.e. not cash reserves). Huge thanks are owed to the various funders detailed on page 7. We thank them for their much-appreciated support towards meeting the costs of our charitable activities, capital items/equipment, running costs of the centre and contributions towards project specific activities.

FUTURE STRATEGY:

The charity usually reviews it strategies annually and primarily such focuses on the needs of our beneficiaries and sustainability. Pre-pandemic the charity was heading towards selfsustainability via its income generation streams. However, as you can see from the accounts herein, our self-income generation reduced by 32.5% in our 20/21 accounts and in our 21/22 accounts herein, we have only seen a 10% recovery in this accounting period.

Our priority was to secure core-running costs grant support for our next period, 2022/23, to mitigate making drastic cuts to our operations. The charity is now focussing on sustaining operations ensuring we meet the needs of our beneficiaries and recovery, which we anticipate will take us at least 2 more years to return to pre-pandemic self-income generation levels. The charity will need to secure additional grant support for the coming 2 years in order to meet liabilities whilst finances recover.

RESERVES POLICY:

The general reserves fund represents unrestricted funds arising from charitable assets acquired. The current level of unrestricted funds is £30,204, however this includes £69,234 of fixed assets, which are not liquid funds, and current unrestricted funds (free reserves) are £970 (see note 13 in our Independently Examined Financial statements). The charity has an overdraft facility with the bank of £10,000. The designated reserves fund represents the net book value of improvements to leasehold property, which have been capitalised. The current level of designated funds is £125,455 (fixed assets only). General operations are also funded through specifically identified funding sources (restricted funds). The current restricted funds balance is £26,253 (both fixed and liquid (£5417)).

The accounts are hereby provided for anybody’s perusal. The board of Trustees extend their thanks to Paul Taylor ACIE for his professional work in making our accounts presentable in accordance with legislative requirements.

Yours sincerely

Denise Bernard - Company Secretary On behalf of the board of Trustees
