HOME-START MANCHESTER Chair's Report At Home-5tart Manchester we believe that every child deserves the best possible start in life. I'm delighted to be writing this report after my first full year leading the board of trustees. My gratitude goes to all trustees, staff, volunteers, funders and partners who have helped us to support as many families as po55ible in Manchester with at least one child under S years old. As we prepare to celebrate our 20th anniversary, we can reflect on an exciting journey of change through which we have transformed, grown, secured more income, employed more staff, recruited more volunteers, and achieved better outcomes for more families than ever before. Our success is built on foundations of good governance, strategy and quality services and I'm pleased to report a 31% increase in the number of families supported, with our support reaching 172 families and 432 dads. I hope I can count on your continuing support for our vital services in the coming year as we try to make our services available and accessible to as many families in Manchester as possible. Emile Chair of Trustees CEO report th I'm delighted to be writing this yearfs report in the much-anticipated run up to our 20 anniversary, which will have passed by the time this report is published. 20 years is such an incredible achievement for the organisation and everyone who has been involved, not only in sustaining a high quality and impactful service for Manchesterfs children and families, but in the growth and diversification of our offer in ensuring we work towards our vision- that every child in Manchester has the best possible start in life. We are over a year in to the implementation of our 3 year strategic plan and there are several highlights to share: Our overarching aim was to increase capacity to meet demand and to diversify our offer to meet the needs of all families in our communities. This year we have doubled our staff team and increased the number of families supported by 40%. Next year we plan to double the number of families we support and volunteers we recruit and train. Likewise, we have launched new projects supporting fathers in the peri-natal period, and teenage parents. We have also strengthen workforce understandlng and knowledge of supporting migrant families, neurodiverse parents and children, and LGBT+ families. We have been keen to raise and acknowledge the quality of our work and this has been recognised through our Investing in Volunteers award, Kings Award nomination and Spirit of Manchester Volunteer involving Organisation of the Year nomination. We have also sustained our Nation Living Wage accreditation, become a GM Good Employment charter support, soon to be member, and are working toward becoming a disability confident employer.

HOME-START MANCHESTER We have invested more in our people, ensuring staff have access to high quality training, support and clinical superdision as appropriate. have time to reflect and access peer support, make full use of our flexible family friendly work policy, and have time together to socialise and relax. We also conducted a salary and benefits review. We are delighted to have retained all of our staff this year, recruited 6 new team members and have unanimous feedback from the team about how valued and supported they feel. Similarly, we launched a new volunteer recruitment and retention strategy and, as a result, have increased the number of volunteers recruited, and improved our retention rate by 50%! I could go on, but the absolute highlight for me this year has been the impact of our sUPPOrt for families and volunteers. The data and feedback in this report speaks for itself and l am grateful to staff, volunteers, trustees and partners for their contribution. As always, my gratitude and thanks goes to the children and families that allow us to come into your homes and lives, trust us and believe in us to help you, thank you I Shelley. CEO Service delivery This year we continued to provide our core activity which is for volunteers, supported by staff, to visit families with children under 5 at home. They provide emotional and practical support, and work towards goals agreed with the family. We also offer some support to families With children of primary school age, group support for families (face to face and virtual), family outings, direct home visiting Support from paid Family Support Workers, referrals and signposting to other services, and peer 5UPPOrt and development opportunities for volunteers. This year 172 Manchester families with 342 children received support from us, with an additional 526 families supported through Dad Matters outreach and our virtual group offer. We had 16 staff and 68 volunteers, including our Trustees. We carefully recruit our volunteers from the local community and require them to have parenting/caring experience and the commitment to support a family for up to a year. We have a robust selection process comprising an application, interview, references and Enhanced DBS. Volunteers must attend 3 days face to face training and complete 6 e-learning modules. Once carefully matched with a family volunteers are required to attend regular Supervision and on-going training (face to face and online). Following 6 months service we can provide employment/career progression support if requested. Our staff and volunteers provide home visiting and local community support for 2-3 hours each week. Support is focused on trust building and befriending, but may also include practical help with the children and home organi5ation, form filling and budgetin& role modelling and supporting early learning and play with the children, parenting support around routines and boundaries, nurturing the parent child relationship, help to get out of the home and to access groups and other services, access to financial and essential item support. Support is individually tailored and has a whole family focus. The only areas we cannot help with are looking after children in the absence of parents, housekeeping, transporting families in staff/volunteers' cars or intimate/health care of the children.

HOME-START MANCHESTER In the last year we delivered a number of targeted projerts in partnership with fellow services/providers, which is further strengthen us and opened up new avenues for funding and delivery into the next financial year. Parent Infant Relationship Support/Family Hubs The Parent Infant Relationships Support (PAIRS) projett is a Citywide partnership project in Manchester between CAPS (Child and Parent Service}, Health Visiting and Home-start focusing support from conception to a child's 2nd birthday. The projett looks at attachment and brain development and how important a child's experiences during this critical period are, and how those experiences can have long lasting effects on their future mental health and relationships. All volunteers who will support a family where PAIRS support has specifically been requested have completed an additional training co-delivered with a Clinical Psychologist. In November we tripled our staff capacity, and subsequently our volunteer team, to support more families with PAIRS needs. We also launched a weekly virtual stay and play group for children aged 0-2 for families not able or ready to attend face to face groups. In addition and with the funding from Family Hubs MCC, we have been able to launch Dad Matter5 outreach and 121 support across the City, and also co-deliver Baby Bonding se55ions Wlth CAPS. Dad Matters provides Family Hubs locality-based support to fathers and in the peri-natal period, with a focus again on the parent infant relationship. In addition, the service provides outreach support at birth registrations and hospital appointments. Following consultation with local dads, the project is beginning to branch out and launch dad-only stay and play sessions and walk and talks. Dad Matters have also played an integral role in consulting services on inclusion of fathers in services, and we deliver workforce training as part of this offer. Thriving Babies." Confident Parents This project is about promoting the health, wellbeing and safeguarding of children through working differently with their parents during pregnancy and during the child's early years. It is a multi-agency approach, working pro-actively with parents to build on strengths. The project includes intensive assessment, support and intervention programme for at risk babies. An external evaluation of the project can be found here: htt whatworks-csc.or research-re ort thrivin -babies-confident- arents We are delighted that the project was awarded an iNetwork award for innovation, a significant number of babies have remained in the safe care of birth family and currently the return on investment is £1.78 for every £1 spent. Teenage parent support We launched our new project, supporting young families with babies under 18 months for whom baby was conceived when the parent/s were 19 years or under. The project works closely with specialist young parent midwives to identify and support families emotionally and practically, ensuring they are safe and engaged in services.

HOME-START MANCHESTER To complement our home visiting support we ran family days and activities, and provided additional donations ot Christmas. We also provided home safety and safe sleeping equipment, slow cookers ond carbon monoxide alarms, books, ond clothes. Referrals We received a total of 231 referrals, a 75% increase on last year.

HOME-START MANCHESTER 'My Home-start volunteer gave me my confidence bock. Knowing I had someone believe in me and be therefor myfamily every week when they weren't geth.ng poid was so powerful to me.. 'My volunteer was my ongel. Without her I don't think Yd still have my kid<. My children adore our volunteer. She like the moth.er I never had. We have so muchAun together and her visits brighten my week. I'm starting the volunteer troining myself soon so I can give to another family what she gave to us., Volunteers Each volunteer is interviewed, provides references and completes an Enhanced DBS before attending the Course of Preparation. An active volunteer can expect to receive on-going training, 6 weekly Supervision, regular contact with a designated Coordinator and, following 6 month's service, support with employment (references, job searching, application). For a number of volunteers working with Home-start is a step to returning to work or changing careers to work in childcare or family support. For others ivs a way of staying active and engaged after retirement. Last year we launched our new Course of Preparation e-learning format, which increases the amount of self-taught training, with a reduced 2 day face to face wrap around training delivered by our Coordinators. This has proven a great success so far and the benefits include recruitment of volunteers for whom a 6 week course didn't fit into their other commitments, and a quicker turn around. This year volunteers received additional training in Asylum and Immigration, Parent Infant Mental Health, Domestic Abuse, Substance mis-use, and Adverse Childhood Experiences, Oral Health, Safe Sleeping. We also continued to meet with volunteers for drops in, either face to face or via video. Impact Home-start's volunteering package has a significant impact on the well-being, confidence and employability of local parents. Volunteers tell us that completing the Course of Preparation alone positively affects their confidence, self- worth, knowledge and understanding. After 6 months active volunteering with a family this impact is even more significant. We recruited 2 previously supported families as volunteers thi5 year, and we are also proud to have members of our staff team who started their journey as volunteersl 7 Volunteers secured employment elsewhere. .1 am really happy to be home vlsiting.

Lorn3, Charlotte, Martin, Rebecca Trustee5 Emile, Karin, Charlotte, Alex, Lorna, Martin, Rebecca, Jo, Carly Financial Review Total income for the year was £488,656 (2023: £415,634). Of this amount £6,741 (2023.. £10,811) was from donations and legacies, and the balance of £481,915 (2023: £404,823) was income from charitable activities and investment income. Total expenditure for the year £506,456 {2023: £368,484) of which £9,334 (2023: £2,943) related to Fundraising activities and £497,122 (2023.. 365,541) related to Charitable Activities. The resulting deficit for the year is £17.800 (2023 surplus: £47,150). The charity is extremely grateful to the many funders who provide funding for service delivery. Without this financial support many families would have suffered even more during another extremely difficult year for everyone. Investment powers and policy The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the charity, have kept available funds in interest bearing deposit accounts. Reserves policy and going concern The balance held in unrestricted reserves at 31st March 2024 was £23,410 of which all are free reserves, after allowing for funds tied up in tangible fixed assets. The trustees aim to maintain ring-fenced resenies at a minimum of 4 months and a maximum of 9 months of unrestricted charitable expenditure, and to cover liabilities including potential maternity leave, redundancy costs and l.T equipment leases. The Charity's main source of income is contracts, grants and donations. The Trustees consider that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis and, consequently, the accounts do not include any adjustments that would be necessary if these sources of income should cease. Risk management The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. Plans for Future Perlods Please refer to Home-start Manchesterfs 3 year Strategic Plan for details of our future plans.

Appointment of trustees New trustees complete an online application form and are inteniiewed by the Chair and CEO. Trustee induction and training All trustees have completed induction which includes Safeguarding Training, undertaken a DBS check (which is renewed every three years as a minimum) and provided 2 satisfactory references. They are also invited to all volunteer training and encouraged to attend meetings and activities of the service to familiarise themselves with the work of the charity and the context in which it operates. Organisation At the end of the financial year there were 6 active Trustees including a Chair and Treasurer. The Committee are responsible for the strategic direction of the organisation and policies and procedures, however, a scheme of delegation is in place and the day to day responsibilities for the provision of services rests with the CEO. The Board of Trustees operates 4 sub<ommittees: Governance, Finance, Income Generation and Operations. Each meet quarterly and report back to the full Board. Governance Committee The Governance Committee comprising the Trustee Board Chair, Committee Chairs and Chief Executive 15 a consultative group and support mechanism forthe Chairof the Board who leadson charitygovernance. The committee has updated its terms of reference and works to ensure that the board is sustainable and effective. The way Home-start Manchester is governed has completely transformed in the13st 12 months and I would like to extend my thanks to Shelley, Karin and Charlotte for their support during this period of change. The board is now clear and focused on its remit of setting the direction for the charity through detailed strategic planning. The board has set out a robust Dolicv framework and 3 detailed Schedule of DolegatÉd Authority enabling senior staff to manage the charity and all its operations with clear lines of accountability and responsibility. Continuing to work through four committees, Operations, Finance, Income Generation and Governance has enabled the board to ensure that the right people with the right skills are attending the right meetings with enough time to discuss the right issues at the right time, coupled with detailed annual agenda planning means trustee meetings are relevant, focused and informed and that trustees have been able to affect and oversee the successful implementation of the strategic plan seeking to increase capacity, recruit and retain more volunteers and to support families.

li HOME-START MANCHESTER Strengthening governance and leadership has been a priority for Home-start Manchester and in setting the highest of standards for our work and adhering to the principles of good practice laid out in the Charity Governance Code we have demonstrated excellence in organisational purpose. leadership, integrity, decision-making risk and control, board effectiveness, equality diversity and inclusion, openness and accountability, A highlight of our bold strategy to strengthen governance and leadership ha5 been a successful trustee recruitment campaign and affecting a refresh and renewal of the trustee board with 4 new trustees appointed. It's a pleasure to report that the board is competent, capable, committed and courageous and l am excited about the opportunity to work with a diverse, skilled and enthusiastic group of trustees in the year to come. Emile Chair Governance Committee Income Generation Committee The Income Generation Committee or IGC has a broad set of responsibilities including fundraising, grants and contracts; marketing and communications. community engagement; strategic influence and relationships with key stakeholders. One of the biggest challenges facing Home-start Manchester is volunteer recruitment and this has been the focus of our work over the last 12 months. We have overhauled our volunteer strategy with a detailed focus on recruitment, retention, reward and recognition. Working with other local Home-starts as part of a Greater Manchester Partnership we have 'upped' our game and brought forward significant recruitment campaigns via the Greater Manchester tram network and through the Manchester Evening News. Coupled with changes to the way we work resulting from achieving Investing in Volunteers, the national quality standard for volunteer management. Changes include the appointment of both a Trustee Lead and Staff Lead for Volunteering, a new website, increasing the frequency of volunteer supervision to every 6 weeks and developing a Volunteer Voice Panel. Some of the biggest challenges faced by Home-start Manchester are sustainable funding and volunteer recruitment and we will continue to meet these challenges by strengthening the Income Generation Committee with new trustees, skills, expertise and experience. Maintaining our focus on strong volunteer recruitment plans that are embedded into our overall communications strategy and by continuing to develop the partnerships we have established with our colleagues across Greater Manchester, with Home-start UK and its Chairs Forum and Strategic Reference Group, with local government and health agencies and with funders. En7ile Chair Income Generation Committee Operations Committee As part of last year's review of the overall governance for HSM, which has been based in part on the growth of the organisation, the Operations Committee has continued to evolve based on the new Scheme of Delegation in the transition from thp HR rnnimifrtop Tho rnrt)mittraa

12 HOME-START MANCHESTER employment, volunteering, data protection, health and safety, safeguardin& quality, policy and Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. The committee has grown in terms of membership and will include the safeguarding and volunteering lead trustees. This strengthened governance around key operational and strategic priorities for the organisation provides the Board with the assurance that HSM is able to deliver the 3 year strategy. Support from the committee as the organis3tion continues to grow and build on its excellent reputation with commissioners, beneficiaries Staff and volunteers is fundamental to the success of HSM. Part of the role of the committee is to anticipate change and opportunities for further growth to meet the diverse needs of Manchester families and to ensure that all relevant policies and staffing struttures are fit for purpose. The committee is proud to have overseen the successful Investors in Volunteers accreditation and development of HSM'S Equality, Diversity and Inclusion plan to ensure that HSM'S services address inequalities experienced by many families in our city. Karin Connell, Choir In recognition that the organisation has grown significantly and anticipates further opportunities for growth, a review of staff benefits has been an area of focus this year. Having fair remuneration and other benefits are essential to the retention of staff, particularly during a cost of living crisis but also to ensure that the workforce feels recognised and rewarded equitably. The key development this year has been the streamlining of responsibilities within the Scheme of Delegated Authority and the change of name to Operations Committee to reflect the broader remit of the committee which includes health and safety, safeguarding, information governance along with oversight of workforce policies.
