REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report, incorporating the directors' report, with the financial statements for the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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 (FRS 102) (effective January 2019) and the Financial Reporting Standard 102 'Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and its section 1A.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objects of the charity are the advancement of education and the relief of poverty, sickness and distress among asylum seekers and refugees in the United Kingdom.

Our Christian charity believes that we should "welcome the stranger" and works with refugees and migrants from all faiths and backgrounds to help them rebuild their lives in the UK. From providing English lessons to assisting in immigration cases, ICN strives to replace difficulty with dignity.

Our vision is "that each asylum seeker and refugee in our sphere of influence will receive our compassionate welcome and informed help in rebuilding their lives out of their suffering - being safeguarded, empowered and finding community."

Public benefit

The Charity's Trustees have referred to the guidance in the charity commission general guidance of public benefit when reviewing the charity's objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular we have considered how planned activities will contribute to the objectives set. In the trustees' opinion the charitable company's work with refugees in delivering practical solutions in giving support and advice as well as teaching English (ESOL) meet the Public Benefit test.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

(Incorporating Financial Review and Future Plans)

Activities and Achievements.

ICN helps individuals and families who have left everything behind to find a safe place in the UK to live. ICN enables refugees and asylum seekers to integrate and settle in the UK by providing them with the skills, support and advice they need when they are confused and vulnerable.

English ESOL

How can you support yourself and your family if you don't speak the language? We break down barriers by offering newly arrived refugees and asylum seekers English lessons at our centre in Bournemouth. These classes are for those who cannot easily access or engage with the local adult education provision.

During 2020 ICN welcomed 41 new learners with an average of 28 attending weekly lessons.

Immigration Advice

Refugees arrive seeking stability in their lives. ICN gives immigration advice and support through our registered OISC (Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner) advisors. ICN can offer advice and support up to OISC level 1. Initially clients contact us either in person or by phone where they are triaged and given initial advice. If they then wish us to represent them in making an application to the Home Office, we book them in for a full consultation at a mutually convenient time. There is a fee for this service.

In 2020, 99 new clients seeking help with immigration matters came to ICN for advice, 161 of these cases were closed with a 97% success rate.

Advice & Support

Filling in forms can be complicated if you aren't an expert or don't speak English fluently. ICN provides practical advice and support to refugees and asylum seekers within our community. We support clients in finding employment and accommodation, or in accessing social welfare benefits where appropriate.

There were 265 client visits in 2020 of which 17 were new clients.

Women and Families programme

Leaving your friends and family behind can lead to isolation. We've created opportunities for women and children to improve their literacy and build a network of friends.

Currently we are supporting 74 refugee and migrant families through weekly English classes, crèches and homework clubs. In 2020 there were 16 families who were new to this programme.

Separated Children Seeking Asylum

ICN is a service provider for Local Authority children and young people's departments. We specialise in providing accommodation and care for 16 to 18 year old Separated Children Seeking Asylum (SCSA).

During 2020, ICN looked after an average of 11 SCSA's and provided key worker support and extra-curricular activities for many others. In 2020 ICN welcomed 8 new SCSA's to its service provision.

Resettlement & Integration

Having a home and a safe place to call your own is important. We have enabled hundreds of families and individuals to rebuild their lives in Dorset. We continue to have contracts with both local authorities in Dorset to support a number of families who arrived since 2017 under the SVPRS (Syrian Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme). Further families are expected to come in 2021.

So far 28 SVPRS families have settled in Dorset through ICN and Local Authority cooperation.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

ICN Objectives for 2021

To show compassion and understanding to those asylum seekers and refugees we seek to serve and to prioritize the most vulnerable and needy, 'going the second mile' to support them. To enable each ICN member of staff/volunteer to realise their full potential and high levels of job satisfaction with regular appraisals.

Women and families

To rebuild our work after the impact of the Pandemic, to enable women to thrive through ESOL classes with crèche for pre-school children and skills sharing coffee mornings and workshops. To resume running two weekly homework clubs using volunteers. To support vulnerable isolated refugee families with home visits.

Adult advice and support incl. SVPRS

To continue to provide an efficient, effective immigration advice service at OISC level 1. To continue to provide efficient and effective general advice to vulnerable migrants (applying for benefits, housing, applications etc). To develop the support we give Syrian families up to five years supporting them into employment and good community integration.

ESOL teaching

To re-establish physical classes after the Pandemic and to continue to improve our online teaching. To provide effective and structured language teaching from literacy to intermediate levels. To run a summer school for four weeks in August 2021.

SCSA (Separated Children Seeking Asylum)

To increase ICN's capacity to offer a 'key worker' and accommodation service provision to LA's. To continue to develop extra- curricular' activities for all SCSA's in this area and to support others who are looking after SCSA's locally.

Other

Working with local interest and refugee support groups to celebrate the achievements of refugees, challenge hostility to them and support local initiatives under the umbrella forum of BCP City of Sanctuary.

Investment policy and objectives

Surplus funds that may arise shall be invested in an interest bearing deposit account with immediate access. Such surplus funds are generally temporary.

Reserves policy

The Trustees monitor restricted and unrestricted reserves quarterly. Their continuing policy is to aim to retain sufficient funds to meet ongoing requirements, based on present and projected incomes and expenditures.

At the balance sheet date the level of such free reserves (those not held up in restricted, designated reserves or fixed assets) available to the charity stood at £103,042 (2019: £100,706). This is the equivalent to approximately three months expenditure which the trustees believe would be necessary in either completing contracted work or winding up the charity as necessary in the event of loss of income.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

International Care Network (ICN) is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 12th March 2003 and registered as a charity on 12th September 2003. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.

Recruitment and appointment of Trustee Board

The Directors of the company are also charity Trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the company's articles. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the members of the Trustee Board are not elected. ICN gives advice and support and teaches English to asylum seekers, refugees and other migrants, both adults and children, from many countries. The Trustee Board seeks to ensure that the needs of this group are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the Trustee body. The Trustee Board represents members with experience in cross-cultural social outreach, financial management and charity governance, as well as members from an ethnic minority or refugee background. Guidance relating to conflicts of interest and how trustees can identify and manage them can be found here:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/conflicts-of-interest-a-guide-for-charity-trustees-cc29

Organisational structure

ICN currently has a Trustee Board which meets 5 times a year and is responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present the board has five members from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity. The CEO also attends all Trustee Board Meetings but has no voting rights. The day to day responsibility for the provision of services is delegated to the CEO and the department managers. They are responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met.

Volunteers

ICN welcomes volunteers from the local community in giving support. We have an initial induction training programme and adhere to clear safeguarding policies. On average 10 volunteers support our work at any one time. They mainly help as classroom assistants in our English classes and are involved in supporting children in the homework clubs and the crèches.

Induction and training of new trustees

Trustees are familiar with the practical work of the charity. New Trustees are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the cross-cultural context in which the charity operates. They are also encouraged to attend staff 'away days' and any training courses that they feel would benefit them in their role. Trustees can familiarise themselves with principles that charity trustees should follow to make sound decisions and fulfil their legal responsibilities by looking at the document provided by The Charity Commission "It's your decision: charity trustees and decision making". This can be found at:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/its-your-decision-charity-trustees-and-decision-making

In addition, trustees can consult another document provided by The Charities Commission called "The Essential Trustee: what you need to know, what you need to do" which can be accessed here:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF INTERNATIONAL CARE NETWORK

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of International Care Network ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of for and on behalf of which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Donated services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

The time of volunteers is not recognised, refer to the trustees' annual report for more information about their contribution

Womens and families outreach work fund: Many of the women we work with are isolated, having moved from large and close extended families to our sometimes individualistic western culture. We provide one to one outreach home visits for them and their families, to help them break out of the cycle of isolation and alienation. We do this through 'women only' English lessons with a crèche at two local community centres as well as homework clubs for school age children.

Client advice and support work fund: We support clients in finding employment and accommodation, or in accessing social welfare benefits where appropriate. The £10,000 balance relates to unspent grant income from The Barrow Cadbury Trust Covid-19 Su pport Fund.

Net assets per fund type are shown in the balance sheet and its related notes.
