## **THE CROYDON ASSOCIATION FOR PASTORAL CARE IN MENTAL HEALTH** 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

The trustees present their report and financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

The Association’s ability to maintain its normal pattern of work was severely restricted during the period of this report due to the Government restrictions imposed as a result of the Covid pandemic. Social distancing regulations and the loss of any access to meeting spaces meant that all regular group activities ceased throughout the year. That notwithstanding, the Trustees, at the outset of the pandemic, set as a priority the need to maintain regular contact with all known users of the Association’s activities. Many of these were seriously affected by the social isolation caused by the Covid restrictions. With the support of many of our team of volunteers, the association managed to maintain regular weekly contact with up to 100 individuals during the early months of the pandemic. It also proved possible,once experience and confidence had grown in using the Zoom technology, to run the weekly spiritual group and the creative writing group via the imaginative use of the telephone. The gradual easing of social distancing restrictions gave us the opportunity to launch what turned out to be a successful programme of escorted group walks ‘Wandering into wellness’ which have continued throughout the year. 

## **Financial Review** 

For a number of years, the Trustees have used reserves to maintain and develop the Association’s programme of activities. As it became apparent during the year that this approach was no longer sustainable, the Trustees took significant steps to reduce overhead costs through a management restructuring which involved the loss of the Development Officer post, which was disestablished. Given the likely reduction in financial support available to the voluntary sector as a result of the financial crisis at Croydon Council, the Trustees have retained the support of a professional fundraiser to assist in the preparation of funding bids. In addition, going forwards the Trustees will be seeking opportunities to work in partnership with other local voluntary organisations, linking in with the new commissioning arrangements being generated by the One Croydon reforms of the statutory sector.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CROYDON ASSOCIATION FOR PASTORAL CARE IN MENTAL HEALTH** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

We report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 5 to 10. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

The company's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The company'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** 

Our 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 company 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 Our 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.
