In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The company is permitted by its Memorandum of Association to invest any funds not immediately required for its purposes in any investments, securities or property as may be thought fit subject to such conditions and consents as may for the time being be imposed or required by law.

## **Management and financial oversight** 

The centre’s manager, Deborah Hargreaves, is responsible for the centre’s operations. On the financial side, she is assisted by the treasurer and the secretary. The board of trustees meet at least once a month, with the centre manager in attendance, to monitor activities and to make policy decisions. 

## **REPORT OF THE CHAIR OF TRUSTEES** 

During the Covid Pandemic we continued to help the most vulnerable people in our community. Our centre manager was furloughed only for the month of November 2020. Our assistant manager also worked much of the time, as did our youth workers and volunteers, when Covid levels allowed. 

A key and distinctive function of the centre is the amount and quality of advice our managers – give local people in the community on a whole range of issues such as benefits, legal matters, food poverty and housing. Although Open Access could not be run, Deborah worked from home and was able to assist people with open access advice still during the pandemic through social media, telephone, internet. 

The following quotes are from our manager. These give a flavour of the activities of the centre during this period. 

_“ We helped them access the correct benefits, food banks, clubs and anything else they were entitled to. We kept our young people engaged as much as possible in activities online or outdoors. ”_ 

_“ We also ensured that our residents and members had the help they needed during the pandemic. These were things such as prescriptions, shopping, telephone conversations or whatever was needed. ”_ 

_“ All ages benefited from the services we provided such as families, young people, adults, disabled. The continued support we gave the community was beneficial to our service users - mentally, physically and financially. We saw the rise in benefit claims from people who have never claimed before, a rise in food bank referrals, also a rise in mental health. We wanted to help minimise these issues.”_ 

**Delivering Christmas presents 2020** 

Page 5 



_“ We gave out food/toiletry parcels to those in need, and activity packs to young people. We continued to run groups for our members online by introducing Zoom meetings. This was a difficult job as most did not know how to use their devices so we had to provide them with some simple training so they could access the zooms. These virtual meetings ensured that we could provide residents with some activities to keep them involved with their friends and ensure they didn't feel isolated and forgotten. ”_ 

We have fostered many new links with the local community this year. These include the Priory – and Hope churches both have given us tremendous financial support in helping our and their own activities on the Marsh and our thanks go to them. Another one worthy of mention is Marsh United who donated Christmas presents to the children. 

Much work has been done (and continues to be done) on improving the quality of the physical resources we use to serve the community. For example, we used part of our reserves and money from a grant from the Galbraith Trust to replace our ageing suite of computers. We also created a new storage facility in our grounds, funding with money donated by The Priory Church. 

Working with our consultant, Alan Chapman, one of our trustees was able to update and refresh our constitution. Similarly, other trustees have worked on sorting out our financial and funding arrangements and with supporting staff. 

**Many thanks to all our staff, volunteers, funders and trustees. It is only through your efforts that the Marsh Community Centre continues to thrive.** 

## **OBJECTIVES, ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS** 

Established in 2001 as the Marsh Community Centre Charitable Company, the central objective of our work is to address the needs of local people particularly children and young people living in this deprived ward of Lancaster. Unfortunately, the levels of deprivation have only increased since the centre was formed. We have sought better ways to support adults struggling with poverty, mental health issues and stress. With funding and partnership, we try to provide support for hard-to-reach and vulnerable children and young people. We aspire to achieve the following four objectives: 

## 1. ACTIVITIES 

_To provide and facilitate activities, advice, information, advocacy and support that improve the quality of life of local people and promote the wellbeing of the community._ 

## 2. BUILDING 

_To run an accessible and safe building that enables us to make a difference._ 

## 3. COMMUNITY 

_To engage and consult the local community so that we are responsive to its needs and aspirations._ 

## 4. ORGANISATION 

_To ensure that we are well managed and governed and effective in all that we do._ 

## **Activities during the year** 

Page 6 



Our goal has been to continue to help those people of The Marsh area continuously throughout the year. Our records show that we helped around 500 people per calendar month. We pursued these objectives in the following ways: 

By providing **Open Access help delivered over the telephone, internet,** this was well-used, and we know that it made a big difference to many people’s lives. Universal Credit), employment, training, housing and food bank referrals. 

By supporting a “ **Brew, cake and make** ” and “ **Coffee and cake group** ”. These were run via Zoom and were very popular activities that are mainly attended by older people. These sessions are run by volunteers and are invaluable in bringing together people in the area. We fully intend to continue with these sessions. 

By organising a choir, Marsh Music, that has been running since 2017. It has been open to all local people - men and women, old and young, and of all abilities. There are currently 15 members. It is a very popular activity, run by volunteers. Nationally, choirs have suffered badly during the pandemic, but we managed to keep ours going via Zoom throughout the pandemic. 

By providing a **food club** for which participants pay £4. For this they got refreshments and food they could then take away a shopping bag of food. Food club thus provides both social activity and food for local people in need. Food comes from local supermarkets that would otherwise have been thrown away. Run from outdoors during the pandemic. 45 families attend per week. 

Face-to-face youth work had to cease, but we kept in touch with the young people via social media and gave out activity packs to keep them involved with their friends and staff. 

At a time when the building had to be shut to safeguard public health, the challenge for us during the coronavirus lockdown has been to develop ways of fulfilling as best we can the centre’s core objectives in very trying circumstances. What pleases us most is that we still managed to run core services in providing advice and guidance to Marsh residents, albeit remotely during the lockdown while the centre manager was working from home. This included setting up a buddy system to help the most vulnerable. 

REPORT OF THE TREASURER 

## **Income and expenditure** 

Detailed information concerning our charitable spending during the year and the income that made this possible is provided in the financial statements which follow. The key features can be summarised as follows. 

Our total spending during the year amounted to £98,014 of which £11,113 of this spending was on much- needed improvements to the centre’s physical assets, work that is ongoing. Excluding these capital items, the operating expenditures amounted to £86,901, an increase of 0.8% over the previous year. The largest item consisted of the wages and salaries of our staff without whom nothing would be possible.  This amounted to £57,151, a decrease of 1% over 2019-20.  However, when account is taken of the furloughing of staff for which we received £4,966 from the government, our net expenditure on salaries was £52,185, a fall of 9% over the previous year, a consequence of our having to physically shut the centre during the Covid19 crisis, although as has been explained above, we managed to provide important services for Marsh residents in a socially-distanced manner. Activities directly in pursuit of our objectives were £5,201, a decline of 36% over 2019-20, a direct consequence of our being unable to do 

Page 7 



many of the things we normally do, such as organise trips for young people. One thing we were able to do was organise an appeal for donations to help people badly affected by a large fire that broke out in the Marsh during the year. We made grants to affected families totalling £4,986, funded largely by £4,456, the shortfall being met out of our reserves. Apart from our expenditures on salaries, activity costs and the fire appeal grants, we spent £18,663 on overhead costs of running the charity itself, which was 9% lower than the previous year. 

Funding available to us to support these activities totalled £130,468, an increase of 25% over 2019-20, and came from three sources: grants from external funding agencies (£107,867), donations from individuals and organisations (£11,644), furlough grants (£4,966), and income we generate ourselves (£5,991). Without such grants and donations, we could not function. We are particularly indebted this year to the Tudor Trust, the National Lottery ’s Covid -19 response fund, Lancaster City Council, Awards for All, and Francis C Scott Trust for covering the cost of different parts of our payroll bill; and to Garfield Weston, Lancaster City Council and the National Lottery for covering many of our non-wage running costs. 

The donations we received came from a variety of sources, both large and small, some for specific purposes and others to help us cover general running costs and our activities.  Many take the form of regular small donations and others one-off larger amounts. Whatever the amount or frequency they are extremely valuable because they help us build up our reserves in ways that grants do not and cannot and thus help buffer us from shocks to the funding regime. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Our objective is to maintain a level of free reserves (those not tied up in fixed assets and designated and restr icted funds) at a level sufficient to fulfil the Company’s continuing obligations. This is always a struggle because of our heavy reliance on grants as our principal source of income. Our unrestricted funds increased by £9,222 during the year, which is a great relief as we have struggled in past years to conserve this vital reserve, a key objective of the Company if we are to ensure our continuing solvency. 

At 31 March 2021 our unrestricted reserves stood at £47,663, which equates to about 6.6 months of our current level of non-capital spending. This is, of course, an extreme worse-case scenario in which all grant income has been consumed and no income of any kind is being received. In fact, we had cash in the bank at the year-end equal to about 11 months of current spending. 

## **Statutory compliance** 

The trustees’ and directors’ report and the attached accounts comply with current statutory requirements, the Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Statement of Recommended Practice 2015 – Accounting and Reporting by Charities. 

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2011 relating to small companies and was approved by the board on 29 September 2021 and signed on its behalf by:

## **Financial statements** 

**Year ending 31 March 2021** 



**Independent examiner's report to the trustees of** 

## **Marsh Community Centre** 

## **Charity No. 1085116** 

I report on the accounts for the year 1st April 2020 – 31[st] March 2021 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act 

have not been met; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
