ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charity ( LEAP ) Activity 2020 / 2021
.
In 2020 / 2021 the Charity continued to develop it's hub the LEAP Centre at Clyde House to create vibrant, inclusive and enabling space where children, families and individuals feel safe, supported and empowered to achieve more. The centre has continued to flourish and our work is further embedded within the local infrastructure through strengthened partnerships with statutory and voluntary sector organisations.
Core Costs
We secured funding from National Lottery to cover 6 months of core costs In December 2020, which really supported our sustainability after the impact of Covid -19.
Covid-19
, Since the first lockdown in March 2020, the Charity has continued to respond to community needs by adapting it’s services to provide much needed support. All services have been impacted by the crisis and we have had to flnd new ways of working to mitigate the unprecedented challenges of the crisis. Whilst restrictions have been lifted, we remain vigilant about minimising risk at the centre and across all our community projects. .
During this year, we have worked in partnership with Public Health, to roll out key messages in relation to minimising the risks of Covid-19.
It has not been possible to restore all activity during the past year but projects delivered between October 2020 and September 2021 include:
Childcare, School Readiness and Early Learning Proviston
Little Leaps Pre-School
Our Ofsted registered pre-school provision accommodates up to 20 full time children. The nursery provides a small, homely setting that can meet complex needs of local children. We were inspected by Ofsted in September 2016 and received a rating of Good. This year has seen an increase in numbers of children and families accessing the provision, bringing us to near capacity. Staff have continued to offer wellbeing support and face to face provision throughout the crisis.
Family Contact Services
As an enhanced NACCC accredited centre, the Charity provides family support through supervised and supported contact work after family breakdown and separation. This year we have seen a further increase in the number of families using the service.. We accepted referrals from Local Authorities, Solicitors and Cafcass alongside self referral from families. We have been able to continue a face to face service along with digital support, to ensure relationships are maintained throughout the crisis.
|
Our Supported Contact provision moved to Bloom Allotments to ensure a safer environment for larger groups and this has been very successful.
Adult reading support
Evidence based reading support for adult non-readers. The project is delivered by trained volunteer reading mentors and co-ordinated by a Project Lead. Current learners are aged between 18 and 80 years of age. We were able to re-open the project via ESF funding, received in June 2021. Measures remain in place to minimise the risks of Covid-19.
.
Parenting support and education for parents and chlidren experiencing domestic abuse
Bespoke parenting courses and support delivered, raising awareness of the impact of environmental trauma on children’s outcomes. Course delivery resumed in September 2021 via TMBC Community Safety funding.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (INCLUDING DIRECTORS’ REPORT) for the Year Ended 30 September 2021
Telephone Befriending Project
Between November 2021 and March 2021, we provided a telephone befriending service to people facing loneliness and isolation over the winter months. The project was funded by TMBC Winter Pressures Fund and delivered by staff and trained volunteers.
BLOOM- Day care provision for adults with mild to moderate learning disabilities
During the year, we continued to develop BLOOM, our therapeutic horticultural project for adults with mild to moderate learning disabilities at our community allotments Sadly, some very vulnerable clients have not been able to return due to ongoing risks brought about by the pandemic. In 2021, we appointed a new manager for the project who has renovated a second allotment at the same site, increasing space and also providing opportunities for children’s horticultural activities.
St Peter's Trading Partnership (Greenscape) Ltd:
.
During 2020 / 2021, St Peter's Trading Partnership (Greenscape) Ltd.’s service has continued to provide environmental programmes to a range of customers. At the same time, it has provided training and employment opportunities for local people and opportunities for training, wellbeing and skill development through adult day-care provision. Greenscape continues to work with people who are often furthest away from the job market through volunteering opportunities. Volunteering increases knowledge and skills and improves wellbeing through better feelings of self-worth, respect and purposefulness.
Greenscape continues to carry out grounds maintenance contracts for a range of procurers Including the local authority, housing associations and friends groups.
Greenscape remains committed to working with community groups who wish to encourage play and wellbeing within their green spaces and were commissioned during 2020/2021 to undertake a range of practical tasks to improve/maintain community spaces.
Covid -19
There has been some impact on work during 2020 — 2021, most significantly only being able to carry teduced numbers of staff and volunteers in vehicles has taken increased time to complete jobs.
Greenscape’s long serving Manager resigned from the organisation in August 2021. A new appointment was made after the end of September 2021 and will be detailed in next year’s report.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
investment policy and objectives
The charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees wish. However with regard to liquidity requirements, the trustees have decided to keep any spare funds not required for immediate use in an interest bearing account. .
Reserves policy and financial review
St Peter's Community Partnership recognises that when it is operating projects which are grant funded and those commissioned by the Local Authority, it is responsible and accountable for public funds. It further recognises that It needs clarity and transparency in demonstrating how these funds are managed and in particular the level of funds that it judges appropriate to hold in reserve. St Peter's Community Partnership has a Reserves Policy in place which states that the appropriate level of reserves held should be around 25% of the current year's forecast expenditure, in order to match the charity's present needs and commitments. This would equate to approximately £67,888. The reserves policy was formally reviewed in May 2020 and is still deemed to be relevant, and the levels appropriate for the current trading environment.
;
Reserves are necessary to St Peter's Partnership to provide:
-
° operating capital, to cover short term cash flow problems as the majority of funding is received in arrears;
-
° contingency funds to cover unexpected costs and liabilities and short term funding to cover possible gaps in grant allocations;
-
° development funds to enable St Peter's Community Partnership to invest in pilot initiatives or build internal capacity prior to external funding becoming available; and
-
° funds to enable the organisation to meet its likely outstanding obligations if circumstances arise where the trustees are obliged to wind up the company.
Restricted funds held at the end of each year are carried forward for the future support of specific projects. For the 2020/2021 year, these restricted funds are minimal in extent.
As at 30 September 2021 the level of free funds held by the charity was £152,045 (2020: £99,018).
LOOKING TO 2021/2022
----- Start of picture text -----
.
----- End of picture text -----
During 2021/2022 the Charity will continue to deliver much needed support to local children, vulnerable adults families and communities. Our Family Contact Centre has seen an unprecedented amount of referrals and we will prioritise the expansion of provision to accommodate this growing need. Our services and support are more crucial than ever as society continues to mitigate and manage the impact of Covid-19. To build back stronger, we need to ensure our sustainability during this uncertain and unprecedented time. Therefore, the Charity will continue to prioritise and strengthen it's sustainability through diversified income streams as much.as it can. We will place particular emphasis on securing funding to support our core , running costs over the next 12 months.
Trading Subsidiary
With a new Manager in place, Greenscape will look to increase it’s service profile to secure new contracts and maximise opportunities to expand it’s reach and remit, to become a more reliable and consistent income stream for the charity.
We will also continue to focus on the expansion of BLOOM Allotments, by organically growing projects and opportunities for adults and children experiencing disadvantages. This will include the introduction of a lunch club and the sale of handmade craft products

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the Year Ended 30 September 2021
Basls of preparing the financlal statements
,
,
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance 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 1 January 2019)’, Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’, the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
Going concern
Having reviewed the current working capital position, the forecast trading and capital commitment spend, the directors believe that there are no apparent reasons that the charity will not continue to operate for the foreseeable future and as such the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that St Peter's Community Partnershipis and will continue to be a going concern.
Group financial statements
These financial statements consolidate the results of the charitable company and Its wholly-owned subsidiary St Peter’s Trading Partnership (Greenscape) Limited on a line by line basis. A separate statement of financial activities and income and expenditure account for the charitable company are not presented because the charitable company has taken advantage of the exemptions afforded by section 408 of the Companies Act.
Income
Voluntary income including donations, gifts and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature are recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. When donors specify that donations and grants given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods. When donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the pre-conditions for use have been met. Income from commercial trading activities is recognised as earned (as the related goods and services are provided). Income received from the sale of goods and services is recognised in the financial statements in the period in which the goods are sold or the service provided. Revenue grants are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to them. Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis. The value of services provided by volunteers is not incorporated into these financial statements. Further details of the contribution made by volunteers can be found in the trustees’ annual report.
Expenditure
Resources expended are accounted for on an accruals basis and have been classified under headings that aggregate all costs relating to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. Costs of generating funds are those Incurred in trading activities that raise funds. Grants payable are charged in the period when the offer is conveyed to the recipient. Project costs include expenditure on direct costs and support costs relating to these activities. Support costs are those incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources. ;
