STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, first adopted on incorporation on 14 January 2002, amended on 10 December 2003, further amended by two Special Resolutions passed on 29 April 2008, then further amended by a Special Resolution passed on 11 December 2014 and then further amended by a Special Resolution passed on 19 March 2020.

Organisational structure

Faith in Action Merton Homelessness Project is a public benefit entity whose objects are the relief of poverty and distress in the London Borough of Merton (LBM) and its environs through the provision of information, advice and support to persons who are homeless or vulnerably housed, suffering from adverse circumstances and in need of help in acquiring a settled way of life.

Our Faith in Action Merton Homelessness Project Management Committee currently has nine trustees who belong to the local Merton community or are from local faith communities, and who support the work of the Project. Our officers are: Chair: Bernie McAlister; Treasurer: Kevin Laws; and Company Secretary: Sarah Codrington. The Management Committee meets approximately monthly and the meetings are attended by the Project Manager and Assistant Drop-In Project Manager.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed, and to ensure that appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. These duties are met by a regular review of our risk assessment procedures, by constant monitoring and action taken where appropriate, and by Independent Examination of our annual report and accounts.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Significant activities

In planning the activities of the charity, the trustees refer to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission with regard to public benefit. In particular the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives of the charity.

Our Vision is to empower and be instrumental in transforming the lives of people in the London Borough of Merton and surrounding areas who are experiencing homelessness, are vulnerable housed or socially excluded from the community.

Our Purpose is to provide support, information and help for anyone experiencing homelessness, is vulnerably housed or socially excluded from the community. We particularly focus on those who are “hard to reach” because of addiction issues, mental ill-health, challenging behaviours and/or other difficulties.

We also provide support where there appears to be a gap in service provision or where they are not able to access services due to their situation.

We aim to reduce the risk of harm to our service user guests and improve their well-being. We encourage them to set realistic goals, and empower them to achieve these with the long-term goal of breaking the cycle of homelessness and/or addiction.

We do this by:

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Opening remarks

Faith in Action Merton Homelessness Project continues to run the Merton Homeless Drop-In as well as the Merton Winter Night Shelter. We are very grateful for the continued support of local faith groups which provide venues and volunteers to operate the Night Shelter.

The team of nine staff consists of: Project Manager (5 days per week), one full-time Winter Night Shelter Co-ordinator and one part-time Co-ordinator, one part-time Assistant Drop-In Manager, and five part-time Drop-In Project Workers (including the partly grant-funded Project Worker specifically supporting the A10[1] service users in the Drop-In). Our New Opportunities Worker (NOW) continues to achieve positive outcomes for Drop-In service users on back-to-work support.

Faith in Action has provided communal accommodation for invited Night Shelter guests, has worked with other organisations including the London Borough of Merton, Streetlink and St Mungo’s to refer newly homeless people to providers of temporary accommodation, and has provided ongoing support for these people. We have also made referrals to statutory services for guests and service users, including housing, social services, drug and alcohol services, and mental health.

Volunteers

The Homeless Drop-In and Winter Night Shelter ran with the help of teams of volunteers in 2024/25. In the reporting financial year, around 45 volunteers supported the Drop-In and 450 volunteers supported the Night Shelter. Excluding the Night Shelter (see below), we estimate that our volunteers contributed around 9,000 hours to operate the Drop-In over the year.

There is a good mix of Night Shelter and Drop-In volunteers who have been with us for more than five years and those who are relatively new. The annual New Year dinner for Drop-In volunteers was well-attended and enjoyed by all, as was the most recent Open Evening at the end of the 2023/24 Winter Night Shelter season. There were 16 respondents to the annual Drop-In volunteer survey. Volunteers stated that the best things about volunteering at the Drop-In were “the very positive and excellent teamwork”; the “illuminating conversations with service users”; seeing “their happy faces after a much needed shower”; and that “one guest broke out in a smile when joining the Christmas carols”. Feedback from the Drop-In volunteer survey has been analysed and circulated with actions taken.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Drop-In data

There were a total of 5,807 service user visits to the Drop-In during 2024/25 with an average of 57 per session. Turnover is constant, with 154 new service users over the reporting period. 503 people attended at least one session during the year.

Many Merton Homeless Drop-In service users move on after benefitting from the support we offer and we are continually developing our service to meet and respond to their changing needs. Around 1,400 interventions were recorded in 2024/25, excluding meals, showers (2,037) and laundry (1,211). Interventions included referrals to housing providers, health checks and referrals to GPs, and assistance with immigration issues. The close partnership between the Merton Homeless Drop-In and the Merton Winter Night Shelter has been invaluable in helping people through the coldest months. A DWP Job Seeker Adviser attended the Drop-In most weeks and conducted 220 interviews giving support with benefit claims. The focus on basic care has been strongly maintained; this consists of a non-judgemental welcome, food, showers, laundry, and online job and accommodation searches.

This year, we faced:

Yet despite these challenges, we continued to serve those in greatest need.

WNS data

The communal Winter Night Shelter operated successfully in two consecutive blocks of seven venues, each opening their doors for the same night each week for seven weeks. There were 14 different venues and around 450 volunteers from the 19 different faith groups involved. The Night Shelter ran for 98 consecutive nights offering 12 beds per night, a total of 1,176 bed spaces. We estimate that our volunteers contributed around 5,200 hours to operate the Night Shelter for this fourteen-week period.

Despite pressure on local housing causing great difficulty in finding move-on accommodation for Night Shelter guests, we were tremendously successful in achieving good outcomes this winter – 55% of guests left the shelter to move into secure housing or return to family/friends.

Problem behaviour

The Project Manager and Winter Night Shelter Co-ordinator have liaised closely with the Police, local community and partner services to help manage any behavioural issues in and around the Drop-In premises and Winter Night Shelter venues; these have been minimal during the year, also indicated by the very small number of complaints we received.

There are reasons for the challenging behaviours our service users present with and often it is these behaviours that keep them excluded from mainstream society. We understand this. Both the Night Shelter and Drop-In have clear and effective policies, including an exclusion policy to manage these behaviours ensuring the services are kept safe for all. The exclusion policy supports short-term exclusions to help the service users to learn about boundaries and that their actions have consequences.

AGM and Open Evening

The AGM was held online on 21 January 2025. The most recent ‘Open Evening’ was in-person on 18 March 2024, wellattended by supporters and volunteers from both the Merton Winter Night Shelter and the Merton Homeless Drop-In. We are proposing to combine the next AGM with an Open Evening, and plan to hold this in-person at the Drop-In at 6 pm on Monday, 12[th] January 2026.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Following several years of deficits which were funded from our reserves, I am delighted to report that we were able to generate a surplus £35,424 in 2024/25 (£33,379 deficit in 2023/24). My thanks to everyone who supported us in addressing the shortfall in our income and the huge efforts we made to increase our profile and public awareness. This appears to have been very successful.

FIAMHP is hugely grateful to its continuing donors. Expenditure was on budget. The charity continues to be reliant on ad hoc contributions and regular giving by standing order. We continue work to promote regular giving and additional income provided by Gift Aid.

The A10 Project Service Level Agreement with the London Borough of Merton (LBM) was renewed for another year. It is possible that this funding may no longer be provided in the long term post-Brexit; however, we intend to ensure we have sufficient funds to continue the employment of this dedicated Project Worker.

None of our objectives or the continued achievements of the Drop-In would be possible without the interest and support of many in the local community who have chosen to raise money and give to FIA for which we are truly grateful. This includes a wide range of churches and schools, the Wimbledon Foundation (AELTC) which is supporting the Merton Winter Night Shelter, and several local businesses.

Donations are received in kind as well as in money. Faith groups providing Winter Night Shelter venues generously provided food for guests as well as accommodation. Food for Drop-In service users has been generously provided by the Dons Local Action Group and several other donors including Morrisons Supermarket, KFC, Critical Support Merton, Merton Foodbank, Abundance Wimbledon, Ross Fruits and the Hindu ‘Vision of Love’ charity.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have the following Reserves Policy:

THE TRUSTEES THANK:

The Wimbledon Guild for the provision of office space, a payroll service, and use of meeting rooms – all free of charge; Kook Hwan Rho and Hean Suk Choi Rho for their cooperation and understanding in our use of the Salvation Army premises for the Homeless Drop-In; Merton faith groups for their provision of premises and work in providing venues and support for the Winter Night Shelter; our staff, trustees and volunteers for their enthusiasm and commitment to the project; our donors who generously support the project and enable its continuance.
