Structure Governance and Mana ement Waste Not Want Not Ltd IWNWNI is a limited company by guarantee and a charity registered in England wth the Charity Commission. Our goveming documents are our Memorandum and Articles of Association. In the event of WNWN being wound up our liability as Trustees is limited to a sum not exceeding £1. As existing Trustees, we elect new Trustees in accordance with the Articles of Association. On appointment, all new Trustees receive a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, an induction pack, which indudes information on their role, disclosure and declaration of inlerests fom and the Charity Commission booklel 'Essential Trustee,. Training is made available lo all Trustees as required. As Trustees we meet as a board on a regular basis to set strategy and monitor perfomance. We delegate to the Mar)ager the task of day-to-day management of WNWN, which he carries out lo a high standard. 2. Ob-ectives and Activities Waste Not Want Not IWNWNI is a registered charity (No 1089419} established in 2002 to collect surplus fumiture and household goods still in good condition, to pass on at affordable prices to people on low income, using a workforce of predominantly volunteers. WNWN'S aims are lo..
Reduce the effect of povety by offering a source of good quality fumiture and household items at low cost. Replicate the customer experience given by a High Street retailer by ensuring the showrwm stock is set out attractively. Raise funding to pay for the essential fumiture and household goods for people in crisis Ihal qualfy for assistance under WNWN'S Fresh Start Scheme. Common (xlls for assistance are for those that have fled domeslic abuse, been previously homeless or are refugees from war-torn countries. Offer volunteering and work experience to the local community enabling them to build confidence and life skills. For those wishing to move on to paid employment WNWN offers help and support wth CV writing and interview preparation. Help the environment by offering a free collection service to divert surplus household items fit for reuse away from the waste stream. For every sofa that is reused instead of boing roplacod with new is the equivalent of 4,479 trees taking in CO2. 3. Small Com an Exem tlons This report is prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 4. Flnanclal Revlew The slalemenl of financial activities on page 11 shows the incoming resources and the application of those resources for WNWN. The key factors are as follows.. a} During the year ended 31 October 2024 WNWN had one principal source of unrestricted funding. This was from sales of donated second-hand fumiture and electrical items, al £189,596. A secondary source of unrestricted funding is from grants, donations and Gtft Aid refunded. b) The restricted funds, which relate to funding received for specific purposes, had income during the year of £0. After taking into account all relevant expenditure of £0 the reslricled fund balance is £0. The Trustees have resolved to maintain a contingency fund at a level that equates to between three and six months of the budgeted operational costs. This would provide a cushion against fluclualions in income and would enable WNWN to continue with its aclivilies. At 31 October 2024 this contingency reserve is £50,000, and is showing as designated funds, which is within the reverses policy of WNWN.

In the year to 31 Oclobar these have been short term deposits with WNWN'S banker and other UK regulated banks. 6. Rlsk Mana ement As Trustees we review the major risks that WNWN faces on a regular basis and carry out periodic reviews of the controls over key financial systems. We also consider other financial, operational and business risks faced by WNWN, especially the maintenance of adequate reseNes and have ensured Ihal insurance cover has been reviewed and updated. As Trustees we confimi that systems have been established to mitigate, as far as possible, any significant risks. 7. Publlc Beneflt As Trustees we have kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. The fuS of our charitable activities during the year is sel out in our statements on "Objectives and Activities. and Achievements and Perfomance. and these explain how as a charity we have delivered public benefit.

Waste Not Want Not has provided a Work ExperienGe plaGement to one of our leamers forjust over years and given them an amazing opportunity to develop their employability skills and gain invaluable practical experienGe. We have seen our leamer grow in terms of Gonfidence, communication and independence over this time. They now have a growth mindset and have an openness to explore new employment avenues. This could not have happened without the opportunity and supportive environment provided by W8Ste Not Want Not. Thank you for everything.. Outsourclng Collectlons and Dellverles In 2021 WNWN contracted out ils Collections and Deliveries as its employed van driver had developed cataracts and was assessed as unfil lo drive. The continuing use of the 3rd party, mulli vehicle logistics company known as DLR, improves customer service through reduced wailing limes for deliveries and collections. Monthly invoices from DLR detailing the charges made for each delivery and collection are analysed. Whilst the delivery charges are partly offset by the amounts charged to customers WNWN provides donors of goods with a free collection service. The analysis of the 2024 monthly invoices confimis that contracting out logistics remains cost effective compared to WNWN running its own collection and delivery vehicle wth an employed driver. Goods Collected Regular feedback calls are made by WNWN lo a random selection ofdonors whose homes have been visited by the 3rd paty logistics service. This helps lo ensure the collections and deliveries are meeting WNWN'S required standards. Results are shared at regular review meelings with representatives of the logistics company. Of the last 50 feedback calls made 86 % of those telephoned gave the maximum score of 5 when rating each of the followng=
Ease of booking Arriving during the time slot allocated The friendliness of the van crew. 48 respondents said they would recommend the collection seNice to their neighbours, family, and friends. The two donors that did not recommend WNWN'S collection service had their goods declined as the van crew felt the offered items did not meet the standards required for WNWN'S stock. Goods Delivered When carrying out feedback calls lo customers ihat have had goods delivered, they ar9 asked to rale the delivery service on a scale of 1 to 5 whore 5 is excellonl. Of the last 50 customer feedback calls made as above 45 oflhose lelophoned gave the van crew the maximum score of 5, 4 awarded 4, and 1 respondent gave a score of 3. WNWN is grateful lo the DLR staff for the good seNice they have provided whilst carrying out collections arKI deliveries on ils behalf throughout 2024. Publlclty Our increasingly effective social media presence has helped lo keep us in the public's eye, and this wll continue to be an area lo focus upon. Pictures of selected goods with appropriate details such as price. size, etc are regulady posted on WNWN'S Facebook and Inslagram pages.
