REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020

This report has been compiled by the current directors, on behalf of the directors who were in place over this reporting period, with the support of Bev Kidley who was managing the charity at that time.

Achievements and Performance

This year has been a very unusual one for everyone. As Covid 19 has taken the country on a very different way of life.

For the charity January and February were busy months. This was because numbers of people attending the Banquet Run were as high as they have ever been, but as we progressed through to March, it became quite apparent that we could no longer run the Banquet Run in a safe manner due to the spread of Covid. For a few weeks, we dropped off food to those we could reach and help on the streets in a safe way. However, as time progressed some of the bigger charities in Salisbury took on the responsibility of using their premises and resources to help those who were homeless, many of whom were housed with the extra government funding that was available.

This released extra time for us to spend running the Hope Project and helping those who were struggling in the community, and the number of people needing support grew as the pandemic progressed. We were very blessed to receive food, from Marks and Spencers, Lidl, and other one-off food gifts from individuals and small organizations. It was an amazing time to see everyone working so close together, helping each other out, for the good of the people we serve.

We spent the last five months of the year working with Mike and Kerry Badger, who from January 2021 took over the day-to-day management of the charity over from Dave and Bev Kidley, who both retired at the end of 2020. During this time, they introduced new clients and work to the Hope Project from their own network of contacts from their previous work in churches and in the community. These additional clients included some isolated single mums, elderly people and some impoverished families and individuals. This additional work included practical support to single mums, visiting and providing practical help to elderly and isolated people, and helping impoverished people to furnish their homes or move into move-on accommodation. We also supported some of those having to self-isolate due to the coronavirus pandemic by shopping or collecting prescriptions for them. In November and December, we also used Morning Star resources to support a Christmas toy giveaway initiative to parents of children that were struggling to be able to afford to buy their children Christmas presents.

Also, over the latter part of the 2020 new trustees joined the board such that by the end of December, all directors who were on the board of trustees at the beginning of 2020 had resigned. This then made room for the new trustees with fresh ideas and enthusiasm to continue our work with vulnerable and marginalized members of society.

Looking Forward to 2021

Whilst continuing with the Hope Project but adding their own network of referral contacts and clients, Morning Star (Salisbury) plan to run a course and recovery community for those struggling with mental health difficulties, addiction and social isolation. This will be based on a course that Mike and Kerry have been developing over the last few years in collaboration with a number of other agencies, and matches the charitable aims and objectives well. In addition, they plan a survey to re-evaluate the need in Salisbury and identify the gaps in provision, to ensure that effort of the Charity is focused where it is most needed. This survey will also attempt to understand the current and planned housing provision and needs, and whether Morning Star should be seeking to invest in social housing to suit a particular need.

Joss Ratsey who has been totally committed for many years in preparing the day to day accounts and submitting them to the Board and the accountants each year, will be available to support the staff and board, for the first few months of 2021 as will Bev Kidley.

Thank You

As Dave and Bev Kidley transition into retirement, they would like to thank everyone who has supported Morning Star (Salisbury) for the last 18 years. They described how the support given to the work of Morning Star—both financial and volunteering has been fantastic and has been a great encouragement to both them and the Board. They expressed thanks to the board of trustees, and commended the new board as follows:

‘We would like to thank the trustees of Morning Star, although “thank you” somehow doesn’t seem enough to cover how grateful we are, for all they have done for us and the people we served. They have stood with us for so many years, have held up our arms, when we were tired and weary, encouraged and loved us, without expecting anything in return. They have showed us new ways of helping people and in turn we have been helped and changed personally too. They have corrected us if they felt we needed some guidance. They have governed well. From the bottom of our hearts, we salute you. We now commend Mike and Kerry Badger, and the New Board, whom we know will lead the charity forward and we pray that they will know the mighty blessings of God over their lives as they seek to serve Him in all they do.’

Finally, Morning Star is a Christian Charity, and therefore our praise and thanks go to the Lord our God. This is because our faith, hope and love come from Him and we pass this on to others through what we do and say. We witness as to how he has been faithful in every area of our lives; how he gives us strength for today and hope for tomorrow and how his love for us and the people we have served has been immeasurable and unceasing. His faithfulness and love for us is demonstrated in both his practical provision and the way in which he has transformed many lives. This is both evident historically in the residential programme we ran for those with addictions, and in his continued transformation of people and situations today. So, we say to God: ‘thank you for your love, grace and faithfulness. You never let us down.’

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020

Financial Review

Total income for the year was £76,870 and total expenditure £75,928, resulting in a net surplus of £942 for the year.

The reserves policy is stated in note 16 to the financial statements.

As at 31st December 2020, the charity held reserves of £87,604 of which £84,079 were general reserves and £3,525 were restricted reserves.

No funds were in deficit.

The directors consider the charity holds sufficient reserves to meet any unexpected financial expenditure and to enable the charity to continue as a going concern.

Structure, Governance and Management

The charity constitution and governing document is detailed on page 3 of this report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES:

The Charities Act and the Companies Act require the Board of Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :-

a). select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently,

b). make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent,

c). prepare financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

d). state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

The directors are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They 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 directors are also responsible for the contents of the Report of the Directors, and the responsibility of the independent examiner in relation to the Report of the Directors is limited to examining the report and ensuring that, on the face of the report, there are no inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements.

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

I approve the attached statement of financial activities and balance sheet for the period ended 31st December 2020, and confirm that I have made available all information necessary for its preparation.

Offsetting

There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.

Grants and Donations

Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS 102 SORP).

Tax Reclaims on Donations and Gifts

Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.

Gifts in Kind

Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable.

Legacies

Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.

8

MORNING STAR (SALISBURY) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)

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

Donated Services and Facilities

Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.

Volunteer Help

The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the Directors' annual report.

Income from interest, royalties and dividends

This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

Expenditure and liabilities

Liability Recognition

Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

Governance and Support Costs

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

Fixed Assets

These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They are valued at cost or, if gifted, at the value to the charity on receipt.

Depreciation Expense

Depreciation is calculated at a rate to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The rates applied per annum are as follows:

Building 15%
Fixtures/Fittings 25%
Vehicles 12.5%
Caravan 20%

Debtors

Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.

15. RISK ASSESSMENT

The directors actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The directors have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.

16. RESERVES POLICY

The directors have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The directors aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The directors will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.
