TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Achievements and performance Chairman’s Report 2022/23
2022/23 has once again been a very challenging year within the HCDP, we have continued with our training programmes for the placements and volunteers within the various projects we run, and they continue helping us raise some of our much needed funding under difficult circumstances.
Our resident gardener/driver Paul sadly retired in December 2022 so we are looking for someone to take his place, of course this will be a difficult and virtually impossible task.
We also were very sad when we lost Steven Ibbitson who passed away on the 21[st] May 2022 he is definitely missed by all of his colleagues and friends
Because of the continuing battle to raise funds we have many difficulties supporting the local communities with their gardens ,
and owing to the fact that we no longer have any decorators we have had to close the project.
The cafe, continues to thrive due to the support and the hard work of all our staff volunteers
The projects we are involved in are unique to our organisation and the position and reputation we hold in the community is being upheld through the dedication and hard work of the management, staff, volunteers and placements.
I would like to offer my thanks to all that have assisted the HCDP be it with time or with donations of money making it possible for us to carry on and helping us to make 2022/23 a fought for but another fairly successful year for the organisation.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
MANAGERS REPORT 2022/23
We have had another incredibly difficult year; we have found it very hard to obtain funding but with the dedication of a great team we have managed to survive all the problems that have been thrown in our path.
The gardening service has been very busy thanks to Pauls dedication following the sad loss of our colleague and friend Steven Ibbitson.
Margaret our Welfare Rights supervisor has managed to keep things going even though there have been many changes to the benefits system. We welcomed a new volunteer Vanessa and she has shown great promise in all what she does the Welfare Rights Service has continued to grow and develop.
A special vote of thanks must also be given to Julie, Jeannette, Margaret Lynne, Sonya. Laila & Sam between them they have managed to keep the kitchen going under very difficult circumstances and are a great asset to the centre.
I must also offer my thanks to Chris, Andy for the countless hours they have volunteered in the office also Dave,Neil, Ashley and Stevefor keeping the front reception and mobilty scooter project running.
If I have missed anyone off my list of thanks I offer my apologies now and hope they continue to assist us in our endeavours to help as many disabled & vulnerable people as we can in the future.
The second hand shop and tombola continue to bring us a little revenue and I would like to thank all the people who have donated furniture, bric-a-brac and clothes to help us raise funds.
We all continue to be happy in our work and even though there were quite a few ups and downs along the way we always manage to carry on and keep smiling regardless of what is thrown at us.
Pat Rowan Manager
Cooks Cafe Report 2022/23:
Once again we have managed to carry on with our task of offering our customers good healthy, fresh home made food we have continued to do our very best and hope to carry on regardless.
We are very proud that we have been upgraded on our scores on the doors and now hold a very respectable 5. We have continued working towards high levels of cleanliness and hope that we can maintain this throughout the centre.
Our customers remain loyal and we have continued to grow and we have noticed most of them bring family and friends. The great atmosphere in the centre also draws people into our fold.
Our regular Monday group have passed comments on the food and friendliness which are usually good, of course we get the odd grumpy customer but the courteous manner in which we deal with complaints soon has them smiling again.
All the volunteers and placements make it a really enjoyable atmosphere to work in and most of us come to the centre and leave at the end of the day with a smile on our faces.
I would once again like to take this opportunity to thank all the volunteers and placements that have enabled me to carry on with the good work in the kitchen.
I would also like to thank Tesco, Asda & Greggs for the help they offer our charity through donations of the food, also FareShare for the new freezer and the friendy assistance they have given us over the year.

GARDENING PROJECT REPORT 2022/23
It is with great sorrow in my heart that I must think of the loss of my dear friend and colleague Steven Ibbitson, he passed away in May 2022 and is missed by all.
I myself retired in december 2022 but often visit my colleagues who I worked with for 17 years.
Thanks to the funding from Sir James Reckits the charity was able to purchase a new (second hand) van, this has helped immensely with our projects and collections.
The aim being to offer our clients a regular garden service preferably on a 4 – 6 week rota, once again we had a lot of problems caused by the adverse weather conditions making it virtually impossible to keep to the rota plan we had set ourselves but we continue to soldier on helping as many vulnerable people as possible.
We have been working with the Fisherman’s Mission, British Legion, Humber Care and the local Welfare Support Services; they refer clients to us that need our help and assistance. We also work hand in hand with the Homeless project and HCC tidying gardens and removing rubbish.
The income we earn is on average £35 this is ploughed back into the organisation and covers some of the costs that are generated by the project.
I would like to offer my thanks to all the placements and volunteers that have helped me throughout the year.
Paul Gardening supervisor
Welfare Rights Report 2022/23
The change from DLA to PIP has carried on to create many problems for a great number of our clients, with many of them losing much needed benefits, because of this the work load has increased but we have continued with our help and assistance over the last year. We had a total of 197 cases majority being PIP (new & renewal cases).
Along with the change to PIP there has now been a change from income support to Universal Credit which is also causing many problems for some of our clients. All our staff and volunteers that are involved in the Welfare Rights Project have been on various courses to keep them up-to-date with all the changes to the system.
The finacial gains for our clients averaged £254 each on benefit arrears and £50-£60 per week ongoing.
The Monday ‘drop in’ service has continued to be well used.
The number of clients has increased and because of the new benefits system we are receiving more referrals from the Job Centre Plus, and Britannia House. These are usually for assistance with form filling or ringing the DWP regarding new claims.
I would like to thank our new volunteer Vanessa for her invaluable assistance in the last year.

Financial review Treasurers Report 2022/23
Once again we have had a great deal of expenses over the last financial year mostly due to the unexpected costs that came with cold winter and high winds making it very difficult to keep the centre warm.also the rising costs of electricy and food prices
We have also had problems with the gardening project this is due to all the adverse weather conditions so the income from the project has dropped, but our volunteers have persevered and tried their very best to bring in some much needed revenue. The café continues to thrive and thanks to the dedication of the staff, volunteers and placements has continued to bring in much needed revenue.
I would like to thank Pat and Chris for all the sterling work they have put into the organisation over the last year, also, all the support staff for their invaluable time and efforts throughout the year that has enabled me to present these accounts to you.
I would also like to thank our Welfare Rights team, the Kitchen staff, the Gardeners, also the Reception & Admin staff that have once again proved that a good team works well together to get over any problems that occur along the way.
The financial year covers the period from 1[st] April 2022 to 31[st] March 2023.
I would also like to thank all those who very kindly gave donations in money goods and time to make this year although not very profitable; their help has enabled us to survive.

-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Hull Council of Disabled People is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 75 Ferensway, Hull, East Yorkshire, HU2 8LD, England.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
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
The operation of the Charity is dependent upon the provision of a bank overdraft which is to be reviewed in February 2017 and the renewal of the lease for the property with the Hull City Council. The Board of Trustees have considered the future operation and financial commitments of the Charity and are of the opinion that the Charity will continue to operate in its present form and be able to discharge its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Committee of Management in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered.
Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in these categories. certain other costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on an appropriate basis.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Fixed assets costing less than £500 are written off to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year of purchase. Fixed assets costing more than £500 are initially recorded at cost in the balance sheet and depreciated over the estimated useful life.
Furniture & equipment 10% to 20% of cost Motor vehicles 3 to 7 years straight line basis
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 the statement of financial activities.
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.

(Continued)
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 balance sheet when 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.
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 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.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Committee of Management 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.
