TRUSTEES, REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS, REPORT) (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Flnanclal review
The challenging economic landscape experienced in previous years continued throughout the financia year to
March 2025. Despite this, total income increased sllghtly to £663,270 (2024: £659,424). Considering the tough
economic landscape the trust88s felt the small year on year Increase in income sb'll constitutes a *rong financlal
perfonnance.
Donatlons and Legacy income was £23.884 (2024: £49,179). This year on year 8lgnfficant reduction was wholly
down to one donor who made a large donatlon in March 2024 choosing not to make a similar donation in March
2025.
Charilable activty income Increased year on year by £18,551 as a result of the following major contrlbutlng
factors:
Home Start Nottingham were awarded a £70,000 grant from the Postcode Community Trust.
The year to March 312025, was the last y8ar of the 10 year commissioned servlces contract with SSBC,
vthich end8d in March 2025. Reduced actlvlty levels in the final year of the contract resulted In a decline
of operational Income of £90,949 in comparison to the previous year. On a more favourable note, as
result of ten years of exemplary delivery of services, SSBC rewarded Home Stsrt Noth"rKJham wlth
one-off £20,000 contributlon to the reserves of the charlty.
The funding received from Nottinghamshlre County Councll Local Communities Fund (NCCLCF), the
Henry Smith Charty and the Garfield Weston Foundation rernalned at the same levels as In the previous
year at £27,296, £30,000 and £15,000 r88pectively.
other income In the year was £29.032 (2024: £18,442). Following the continued rise in the Bank of England base
interest rates during the year, Home-start Nottingham contlnu8d to benefft from its strong cash posltlon.
Re8erv68 Pollcy
The trustees wlsh to maintain 8 level of unrestrlcted reserves which will enable the charlty to meet its financi81
obligations should the charlty be unable to continue. The r888pies policy is reviewed annually and the trustees
have agreed to set the level n88ded 8t three months, running costs. Three months running costs {excludlng the
8ervice contract viith HIIF)) amount to approximately £88,000. The unrestricted reserves held at 31 March 2025
of £751,603 are therefore considered adequate for this purpose.
As a resutt of changes to legislation Introduced in The Pensions Act 2011, Home Start Nottingham was advised
by its penslon provider, the Pensions Trust, that it faces a potential liability for debt on withdraNal from the
pension scheme. The trustees have built reserves to a level sufficient to cover this Ilabllty and review this
position regularly (see note 15). Home Start Nottingham was made subject to auto enrolment of pensI￿S in July
2016.
Future
As mentloned in the Financial review al)ove the commissioned seThiices contract with SSBC ended in March
2025. For the last 10 years. this commissioned services contract has accounted for approximately 70% of the
total revenue of Home Start Nottingham. The Trustees believe that the financial resources of the Home Start
Nottingham will allow the charity to manage the cessation of the cornmission services contract with SSBC on its
operations for the foreseeable future.
Structurè, governance and management
Home Start Nottingham is a registered charity, Charty number 1097005. The Charity is incorporated under
company number 04698694 as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a memorandum
and articles of association.
