STRATEGIC REPORT
Achievement and performance
We support 38 people all who have a learning disability in various settings.
Our supported living service predominantly offers support for people choosing to live in shared accommodation. This service is provided 24 hours per day 365 days per year. Each household have their own team who are able to offer all the support needed to enable service users to thrive in their own home engage with the activities in the community and be part of the wider Hunts Mencap family therefore making safe friend networks to enjoy time with. We also support people who live independently in the community via our Outreach service offering up to 12 hours per week to each person to enable emotional and social wellbeing as well as practical help to maintain skills for safe independent living.
We encourage our service users to be proactive in helping to improve the activities and opportunities we offer and this can be done in many ways formally through our service user forums informally through social meet ups particularly at Pinnies and our Mencap office which has an open-door policy and all of our service users, the support staff families and friends are welcome to pop in for a chat. These simple methods of communication are how the Society have continually improved year on year, by active listening and appropriate action we can provide what is wanted not what we think people, need inspiring confidence and self-worth
COVID-19
The past year has been challenging in the extreme because of the Coronavirus pandemic. The staff team has been exemplary in their dedication, loyalty and fastidious care and attention given to those in their care, led by our CEO and senior management team. The Board of Trustees would like to formally thank everyone for their continued support. The service should be extremely proud of the way it has supported and cared for some of the most vulnerable people in society.
Every effort has been made to ensure that life in lockdown has been stable, happy, and entertaining for our service users. Wherever possible, contact with family and friends has been maintained. Indeed, some of our tenants have thrived throughout this difficult time as they have been relieved from external pressures and been able to feel safe and secure in their own homes.
Charitable Activities
The global pandemic has had a significant impact on the charity sector and the Society has not been exempt from this. The Freeman's Charity of Huntingdon kindly donated money for us to purchase iPads for each of the group homes, enabling tenants to access a wealth of online activities, games, and apps, as well as facilitating contact with friends and family via video conferencing platforms.
Pinnies Café
The hospitality industry has been one of the most affected by the pandemic and has been closed for a large part of the past year. When open, the team has been both flexible and innovative in the services they have offered. This has included a full take-out service, a "meals on wheels" service providing hot lunches for clinically extremely vulnerable people living locally, providing afternoon teas for the elderly, and working collaboratively with the Godmanchester Food Bank to provide free school meals whilst children have been home schooling. The service has benefited from Government Grants including furlough payments for some staff, which has enabled the café to maintain it's vital community presence throughout the last year.
Security for future provision
The impact of our high benchmark of service provision is that we have successfully been accepted as a preferred service care provider by Cambridgeshire County Council to provide Supported Living Services for a ten-year period, of which there are 8 years remaining. We continue to work collaboratively with the Council to ensure that the needs of our service users are met, but also that we are paid at the appropriate levels accurately calculated and on time.
Outreach service
This service too has been hard hit by the pandemic as we have needed to protect both staff and people using the service from contracting Coronavirus. Only a very limited in-person service has been provided to those in absolute need. Contact has been maintained throughout by remote means.

Financial review
Financial Position
Thanks to sound and transparent financial management this was a positive year for the society with a surplus recorded of £97,744, there was a number of reasons for this:
-
✓ Increased funding in delivered support to our supported tenancies and out-reach service, which the trustees had identified as particularly problematic due to the age of the contracts which did not reflect the changing needs of our service users. After meeting with Cambridge County Council, the funding was increased to reflect the appropriate costs incurred by the Society and going forward this will be reviewed on an annual basis.
-
✓ Due to the Pandemic, there were various grant schemes and incentives to ensure services were being delivered to the most vulnerable people, we were able to use these resources to provide infection control measures to keep our service users safe.
-
✓ Key Social activities were suspended and therefore spending decreased in these areas.
-
✓ A although closed for an extended period, Pinnies benefitted from the government grant schemes available to help businesses carry on through the pandemic restrictions. However, although sales revenues were hindered, the Pinnies team were able to provide community support by delivering meals not only to our service user groups but to the elderly and vulnerable in the community. We hope these efforts will increase our visibility in the community and further promote the work the Society does in the area. We aim to further this impact by offering more temporary work placements for people from the wider community who may not have full eligibility to receive statutory funding however their vulnerability necessitates a caring and supported workplace as a starting point to being in employment.
-
✓ Workforce development grants enabled us to upskill staff to ensure they could take on support roles when staff capacity was limited.
-
✓ Being part of the Personal Protective Equipment scheme, enabled us to get all of the equipment we needed at no cost which has been invaluable and contributed in no small part to our financial wellbeing.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review continued
Principal funding sources and reserves policy
The input of the Trustees involved in that exercise was crucial to that outcome which enables us to bolster our Reserve strengthening our long-term sustainability
is a key pillar in the delivery of our charity. We have continued to remain focused on introducing financial systems and reporting to support that objective including:
-
Developing strong communication lines with our main funding provider to ensure timely and accurate funding payments with appropriate increases in funding
-
Improving the effectiveness and reducing the cost of day-to-day bookkeeping and accounting.
-
Developing a financial recording method which provides clarity of information for everyone to see.
-
• Developing a reserves policy and strategy
We consider these objectives to largely be in place but need to be continually managed and developed. The financial clarity and process has been much improved by the input of our professional bookkeeper who is a great asset and part of the team. All of these objectives have allowed us to move to a strengthened financial position.
This year we are in a strong financial position to move forward with a free closing £124,078 this will allow the Society to have a 2-month cash reserve and builds positively and at a more rapid pace the objective of strengthening the reserves policy. It will also allow the Society to consider expanding the supported living services we provide and post Covid. We feel this will be much needed as the process of transitioning from home to supported living has been hampered by the Covid outbreak leaving more people to come into the social care system.
We took the opportunity given by the government to apply for a £50k bounce back loan [BBL] which has enabled to clear our mortgage with Barclays Bank costing interest of 5.5%pa and had a monthly cash outflow of £902. The BBL is at an interest rate 2.5% and has a deferred payment scheme of 12 months after which a monthly repayment of £585 shall be made. In the first 12 months this will improve cashflow by £10,824 with a subsequent annual reduction of £3,804. The change in lending has the added benefit of ending trustee guarantees which had been applied to both our Mortgage and Overdraft facility. Remaining Monies from the BBL are retained in a separate account and form part of the reserve fund.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Risk management and use of professional advisers
Risk Management
Three main pillars of risk management are recognised:
-
❖ Care and well-being of clients and staff - Care and well-being of staff and clients is delegated to the CEO but regular reports are given to Trustees who comment and challenge as appropriate. External examination by the Care Quality Commission is a further cross check on our operational care and wellbeing outcomes.
-
❖ Financial governance - Financial risk management is delivered by use of a small financial team consisting of the CEO, two trustees (minimum) and our professional in house bookkeeper who review the financial position monthly reporting to the main Trustees meetings, or as required, to highlight matters that require to be addressed.
-
❖ General organisation governance - Other areas of governance and also to include care and finance are controlled by means of a traffic light risk management register regularly maintained and reviewed by Trustees and the CEO.
Professional Advisors
Accounting
We have continued dialogue with our auditors to review cost effectiveness in our relationship. As part of that we now deploy an online accounting system that is resource efficient and additionally brings more of the dayto-day processing work back in-house to drive down costs. This process is ongoing.
Banking
As with all other cost areas we continuously review the services provided to the Society to confirm we are receiving the best value for money. Our current bankers re-main supportive and work with us to explore relevant financial opportunities as well as advising on general cost efficiencies.
HR and Health & Safety consultants
The current provider, Rob Bryan has been chosen on reputation, cost and past performance. The contract agreed is on an annual basis and therefore can be renewed only on a successful previous year. Most providers have a minimum 3-year contract term which has not proved either cost effective or successful the past.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of Huntingdon Mencap Society Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the in-come and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and - the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.
AUDITORS
The auditors, George Hay Partnership LLP, were proposed for re-appointment at the Annual General Meeting, held in September 2021.
The report of the trustees, incorporating a strategic report, approved by order of the board of trustees, as the company directors, on 5[th] January 2022 and signed on the board's behalf by:

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Huntingdon Mencap Society Ltd
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Huntingdon Mencap Society Ltd (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Page 9
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Huntingdon Mencap Society Ltd
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following:
-
The nature of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance
-
Key drivers for the remuneration policies or directors' remuneration, bonus levels and performance targets
-
Enquiries with management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities.
-
The matters discussed among the audit team regarding how and where fraud might occur and fraud indicators.
As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in terms of misstatements in the financial statements was in relation to stock valuation. In common with all audits under ISA's (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. The assessment of the risk of fraud in terms of misappropriation of assets highlighted fraudulent payments as a focus area.
In addition we considered the legal and regulatory framework that the company operates in, focusing on provisions of these law and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Key laws considered include the UK Companies Act and UK Tax Legislation.
We also considered those laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty, these include Health & Safety Legislation.
Page 10
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Huntingdon Mencap Society Ltd
Audit response to risks identified:
Areas of the valuation that are subjective and checked to corroborating evidence where possible.
Testing was undertaken on the completeness of liabilities to include both substantive and analytical procedures. Standard procedures were used to test management override including the review of year end journals and whether the judgments made in making accounting estimates are indicative of potential bias.
To cover the assessed risks in relation to fraudulent payments, we ensure that transactions are conducted in line with the company's authority matrix, together with a review of expenses in the profit and loss to ensure that they are genuine business expenses. We also perform analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationship that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud, these procedures also include the review of profit margins.
We remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance throughout the entire audit process.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
