DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".

Objectives and activities

The charity's objective is the advancement of care to persons who are residing in or visiting the County of Durham or in such other geographical areas as the directors may decide.

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Significant Activities

Durham Christian Partnership (DCP) has continued to develop the projects previously established. The Cathedral Listening service management and governance was transferred to Durham Cathedral with effect from 31 December 2019. Our involvement with the Reaching Out Across Durham partnership finished at the end of March 2020.

Our activities were affected by the Covid pandemic which created a lot of extra work for the charity's management team, keeping up with the changing restrictions. Despite that, we successfully relocated our core operations to a new site in December 2020 which has given us extra space and efficiencies. Our activities continue to develop and bring assistance to thousands of people.

Our relationships with churches, statutory agencies and with other charities have continued to develop well and, despite the pandemic, the number of volunteers has remained at high levels.

Listeners in Durham Cathedral

This project and the volunteers involved transferred to the direct management of the Cathedral from 31 December 2019.

Learning in Partnership

The Learning in Partnership project and effective listening course has not been active due to the pandemic.

Streetlights

Streetlights operations were suspended from March 2020 when pubs, clubs and other night-time economy activity closed. It will re-launch when conditions permit.

Grandparents Support

A small number were involved with this initiative providing peer support to Grandparents who have lost contact with their grandchildren which is greatly appreciated by all involved. During the pandemic this support has been maintained by phone.

DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

County Durham Foodbank

This project was established in 2011 in response to the increasing number of people in County Durham who need assistance due to the food crisis. The project uses the Trussell Trust model and is part of the national Foodbank Network.

The pandemic disrupted food supplies, access to shops and everybody's lives. We worked closely with Durham County Council who provided delivery services. Donations both of food and finances were generous through the year and enabled us to move to a large industrial warehouse in December. This will solve the issues we have had in storage at peak times and allow us to receive large donations with full mechanical handling capability.

23 distribution points across the County remained open throughout, providing easy access for emergency food support assisted by electronic vouchers and telephone referrals.

Fuel Bank

The Fuel Bank project was established in April 2015 in conjunction with Npower and National Energy Action to providing energy vouchers to pre-payment meter users, the first scheme of its kind in the country. The vouchers were suspended during the middle of the year due to the changed pattern of foodbank access and the extra support available from energy providers. It restarted at the end of 2020.

Sunderland Foodbank

Operates across the city of Sunderland and uses the same model as our foodbanks in Durham. There was a spike in demand in April as the pandemic hit. We worked closely with the City Council to provide emergency food boxes and maintained the food distribution centres throughout. The sale of the warehouse we rented in Sunderland made it necessary to relocate operations which was achieved in December when the warehouse operation was moved to a joint facility with County Durham Foodbank.

Community Money Advice County Durham

The pandemic disrupted operations as face to face meetings had to stop. We experimented with a variety of video connections and phone support but due to a drop in referrals and the protection given to debtors, demand dropped for our services. Some staff were furloughed but the service was offered throughout the year. We anticipate a significant demand when protections for debtors are removed.

DCP Community Shop

The shop has continued to collect and sell donated goods, providing employment, some income for DCP, an effective way of recycling unwanted goods and low cost items to the community in Framwellgate Moor. Despite spending various periods closed due to the pandemic it was able to increase online sales and this combined with a temporary rent reduction, support grants and the furlough scheme enabled it to make a small surplus.

Pad B (Press a different Button)

This project provides support for people with recovery issues, isolation of poor mental health. With a range of purposeful activities including gardening, crafts, walks and litter picking combined with group work, drama therapy and mutual support the participants have benefitted and made great progress. Support continued during the pandemic by phone and then outdoors and working within the restrictions. Isolation is especially difficult for this group so it was important to keep it going as much as restrictions permitted.

Syrian Refugee Support

DCP has assisted with support from the Voluntary and Community Sector for refugee families being resettled in the County. We work in partnership to help complement the funded provision including food and household items.

Healing on the Streets

The project offering prayer for people in the streets of Durham was suspended during the year.

DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Building Better Opportunities - Reaching out Across County Durham (ROAD)

Funded by the Big Lottery and European Social Fund this project involves 12 partners including DCP in helping people who are furthest from it towards employment. A Digital and Financial Inclusion worker is hosted by DCP. Our involvement ended in March 2020.

Grantmaking

Grants may occasionally be made, subject to the Trustees' absolute discretion, to individuals or organisations for use in furtherance of the Charity's objectives. DCP also acts as a conduit for grants obtained to support individuals through a variety of other sources.

Achievements and performance Financial review

It is important to note that following the principles of FRS102 and the 2016 Charities SORP, charitable income is recognised at the point of receipt in total, even where there is an expectation that the funding will be used in future years (unless there is an expectation of retraction in a future year). Therefore, any surplus recorded reflects the timing of grant receipts rather than an underlying surplus of income over expenditure.

Unrestricted income for the period was £76,526 (2019: £73,632) and expenditure £73,055 (2019: £61,696) resulting in a net inflow of unrestricted funding of £3,471 (2019: £11,936). The DCP community shop contributed a surplus of £2,404 (2019: £862). Restricted income amounted to £807,792 (2019: £383,807), while £387,884 (2019: £366,210) of restricted funds was spent, resulting in a net surplus of £419,908 (2019: £17,597) in restricted funds.

Approximately £525,000 worth of food was donated to the foodbank (2019: £307,000) of which £470,000 was distributed (2019: £287,000).

It is estimated that DCP benefitted from around 50,000 hours of volunteering time in 2020, which would have cost £475,000 of these hours had been paid at the 2020 Real Living Wages rates. Although neither donated time nor food is recorded in the accounts, it is important to note that the Charity is providing a level of service greatly above that which the financial accounts alone would indicate.

Individual projects are charged for core services and staff time in proportion to their use of these resources. Fundraising efforts have continued, targeting both grant-making bodies and individual supporters. The Trustees are grateful to all who donated during the year.

The total funds held at 31 December 2020 was £628,678 (2019: £205,300) of which £55,413 (2019: £35,533) was unrestricted.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have adopted a reserves policy to maintain a level of reserves, which will ensure a continuation of operations for at least four months without income. The target relates to the level of unrestricted reserves needed to finance expenditure for which no existing restricted reserve is available and appropriate. Reserves have been maintained at this level in 2020.

Investment Policy

Funds are maintained in an instant access bank account for security. Cash reserves are held in a 40 day access account with a separate bank, improving the cover provided by the Deposit Guarantee Scheme.

The Trustees has assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems

are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Future Plans

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 25 February 1999 and registered as a charity on 24 September 1999. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association that established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its revised Articles of Association adopted on 6 May 2016. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

Mr Glenn Jones Mr Thomas Bray (resigned 17 March 2021) Mrs Christine Jameson- Gates Mr Dennis Philip Lady Jennifer Sewel (appointed 1 July 2021)

The directors of the charitable company are the charity Trustees. They are responsible for investing and expending the funds of the charity in such a manner as they shall consider most beneficial for the achievement of the objects. They enter into contracts on behalf of the charity. They are responsible for the proper management and administration of the charitable company in accordance with the Articles of Association.

The Trustees retire by rotation - one third, or the nearest number to it, each year and may be re-elected until they cease to be a trustee in accordance with the Articles of Association. Appointments are made by members of the charity at its Annual General Meeting or at other times by ordinary resolution. Trustees are recruited for their ability to manage the charity in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Association and in furtherance of its objects. The present trustees have a variety of backgrounds and skills and the board seeks to maintain an appropriate range of skills to match the tasks they undertake. Trustees must be familiar with the activities of the charity and in sympathy with them and must be members of the charity. Trustees are therefore likely to come from within the volunteers or supporters of the charity's activities. Potential trustees are identified by the existing members and approached to check their availability.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Durham Christian Partnership is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 42 Salisbury Road, Durham, DH1 5QT.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements of the charitable company , which is a public benefit entity under FRS102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) '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 (FRS102)(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 are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared 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 principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 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.

1.3 N/A

1.4 Income

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. The charitable company is not registered for VAT and accordingly expenditure is shown gross of unrecoverable VAT.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. Donations or grants from the charitable company are treated as an expense when paid.

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. In circumstances where this is not possible the trustees apportion the amounts in what they consider to be fair proportions to each category. Other expenditure reflects unallocated central administration costs that do not represent governance costs.

Raising funds

Raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes all fundraising activities, events and non- charitable trading.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets a re initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Warehouse Equipment 33% on cost Fixtures and fittings 20% on cost Motor vehicles 33% on reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in n et income/(expenditure) for the year.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any) .

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's b alance sheet w hen the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

DURHAM CHRISTIAN PARTNERSHIP

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 Taxation

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

1.11 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the charity has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the charity will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. W here the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in net income/(expenditure) in the period in which it arises.

1.12 N/A

1.13 N/A

1.14 Fund Accounting

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

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the charity for a particular purpose. Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objectives of the charity. Restrictions arise by the specified donor or when the 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.

1.15 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated 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 to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
