YEOVIL CHRISTIAN SUPPORT TRUST
TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
The trustees present their report and unaudited financial statement of the Trust for the year ended 31[st] December 2022. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described and comply with the Trust Deed and applicable law.
STRUCTURE, GOVERANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Yeovil Christian Support Trust (YCST) is a registered charity (number: 1092843) governed by a Trust Deed dated 24[th] May 2002. A supplemental deed was added by the Trustees in 2012.
A list of current Trustees and other administrative details of the charity appear on page 1 of the financial statements.
Trustees are appointed in accordance with the Trust Deed and give their time voluntarily. Training for Trustees is provided as needed. Strategic decisions are taken by the Trustees but the day to day running of the operations of the charity is delegated to staff and volunteers, supervised by our Operations Manager.
The Trustees undertake to regularly consider risks to which the Trust is exposed, setting in place written policies to reduce the risks as far as is reasonably possible. These risks include financial risk, risks relating to personnel, health and safety and fire risks.
YCST is proud to work in partnership with many local agencies, including local authorities, churches, local businesses and schools who both support the needs of the charity and refer clients in need.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The Objects of the Trust are:
In and around the area of Yeovil and the surrounding areas of South Somerset, North Dorset and West Dorset to express Christ’s compassion through:-
-
(a) the relief of hardship
-
(b) the relief of poverty
-
(c) the support of individuals and families in crisis
-
(d) cooperation with and support of other organisations which engage in the relief of poverty and hardship and the support of individuals and families in crisis
-
(e) charitable purposes for the general benefit of the local community as from time to time the trustees at their discretion consider appropriate
The operations of YCST commenced over 30 years ago and were developed by the Trustees of Yeovil Community Church Trust. The operations and management were succeeded to a new and separate charity, Yeovil Christian Support Trust in 2002.
The Objects of the Trust have been implemented through two main activities during the year: The Lord’s Larder Food Bank
The Lord’s Larder Community Fund

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES (continued)
The operations of the Trust are provided by our Operations Manager, who is supported by a team of willing volunteers. Financial gifts, gifts of food, and gifts of goods are donated by many local individuals, churches, schools local businesses and other groups. The Trustees are extremely grateful for the gifts of time, money and goods given by so many, and without which we could not operate.
Clients in need are referred to YCST by many local authorities and organisations. The Trustees are also grateful for the support of these organisations which help us to give support where it is needed. We know that many agencies have been especially busy again this year.
When planning the activities for the year, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. We believe the activities set out below clearly demonstrate YCST’s commitment to providing identifiable public benefit and that access to this benefit is not restricted in any way.
SUMMARY OF ACHIEVEMENTS
In 2022 the Lord’s Larder Food Bank has seen an accelerating demand for food parcels. Following on from world events, inflation has spiralled, especially energy costs and food, which has had a major effect on household budgets. This has particularly impacted the poor, and many families that were just managing have been struggling to stretch their budgets. In addition, we have seen an influx of refugee families and individuals from Ukraine with 2-300 settling in South Somerset. As a Trust we have been pleased to welcome them and include some of them as clients for food parcels and grants. For the first time in 35 plus years of operation, demand for food has outstripped supply and so the Trust has had to purchase food to keep shelves stocked. The number of parcels given out in 2022 is 34% up on 2021.
The number of food items given out amounted to 183,135, compared to 189,456 the previous year. We have not been able to be as generous in the parcels this year. We were able to assist a total of 1944 families including 5624 adults and 4156 children.
Despite the hardship, which has affected our donors as well as our clients, most of the food given out has been provided by the generosity of local residents, businesses, churches and schools.
Yeovil Community Church, who host us in their building, have requested the return of the hall that the foodbank has been using during the pandemic period. They proposed an extension of the previous larder to more than double its size and consulted the Trustees with the plans. They listened to our concerns and adjusted the plans accordingly such that we were able to move into the new space in July 2022. We have found the new space is very suitable for our needs. YCST was able to give £15,000 to YCC towards the building costs. The use of the space remains rent free.

SUMMARY OF ACHIEVEMENTS (continued)
Gifts of funds to YCST have continued to increase. Regular monthly giving, which is so helpful in terms of financial planning has continued to climb quarter on quarter. The donation of funds has allowed us to buy in food when needed and maintain and even increase grants given out via the Lord’s Larder Community Fund. It has also enabled us to continue to run our electric van which has been used almost daily to collect donations of food from local supermarkets etc.
We are so grateful to all the individuals, communities, shops and businesses and churches in our community that have sustained their giving through another difficult year. We could not do what we do without this selfless generosity!
The Lord’s Larder Community Fund has also been able to provide funds in a sustained way for the needy due to generous financial giving. It was able to provide a total of £19,328 worth of grants to meet local needs, a big increase on what we were able to provide last year. We are pleased to be able to offer flexibility in terms of what we will fund. Sometimes small sums of money to meet unusual needs can make a real difference in the lives of individuals and families.
Some examples of grants given in 2022 include funds to:
-
provide a fridge freezer for a Mum, Dad and 2 children.
-
payment of moving costs for a family.
-
payment towards heating and lighting costs for a needy family.
-
payment for an electric cooker for a Ukrainian family.
-
payment of Council Tax arrears for a Mum and child.
-
payment for reconditioned bikes and cycling safety equipment for refugees in the area to Prodigal Bikes, another local charity with a Trustee in common.
Total fundraising for the year was £117,451 which is only slightly lower than last year.
The Trustees have considered the advice of the Charity Commission in relation to our care for vulnerable individuals. Although we do not generally have minors working or volunteering with us, we do occasionally have children visit with their school groups. We share a building where children are often present. We also sometimes have vulnerable adults working as volunteers or visiting us. In the light of this we have written a Safeguarding Policy and appointed a Safeguarding Officer and a Deputy Safeguarding Officer. They have undergone training and will undertake regular updates.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Total incoming resources were £117,451 (2021 - £118,079), with the majority of income arising from donations as disclosed further in note 4. Total resources expended were £76,391 (2021 - £46,279), the major category of expenditure being staff costs as disclosed further in note 6.
Net funds therefore increased by £41,060 (2021: increased by £71,800) to £257,679 (2021- £216,619). Net funds represent mainly the cash at bank and in hand which totalled £238,844 (2021 - £197,771).

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)
RESERVES POLICY
The trustees closely monitor the charity's financial position and seek to ensure that reserves are sufficient to meet its ongoing liabilities. The charity does not aim to hold substantial reserves, but to pass any surpluses on to those in need. Reserves at the end of the year totalled £257,679 (2021 - £216,619) of which £234,926 (2021 - £193,769) are free reserves.
There are restricted funds of £5,000 (2021 – £5,000) restricted for the use of the Community Fund only and unrestricted designated funds of £25,000 (2021 - £25,000). These are not subject to any restrictions regarding their use but the trustees have designated these funds for the use of a specific project.
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES
The charity's trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)).
The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue.
Incoming resources
Incoming resources are included gross and are accounted for once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is certain that the resources will be received and the monetary value of the incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. Incoming resources received in respect of future periods are deferred to that period.
Voluntary income is received by way of gifts and donations and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.
Gifts in Kind. The Trust receives donation of food items, but it is not practical to value these upon receipt and therefore no income is reflected. These food items are distributed to those in need and likewise no cost is included.
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Financial Activities at the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Activities for generating funds include resources generated by activities which are specifically to raise funds for the charity such as fundraising events.
Investment income includes bank interest and is included when receivable.
