Our purpose

We exist to protect people in need from poverty by saving brand new business surplus products from going to waste, offering a simple solution to fight poverty and reduce landfill, two of the most relevant problems we face in the UK today.

families need to get back on their feet and take the next steps towards recovery, employment and happier, healthier lives.

A staggering £2bn of surplus goods is generated by UK businesses each year. At the same time 14.5m people live in poverty, a figure expected to rise as we face supply shortages, rising food prices and exponential fuel and heating costs.

At a cost of 34p per intervention, we continue to demonstrate our ability to do more with less (2020: 55p). We keep our costs low whilst achieving national coverage through our dedicated network of 8,000 Donor and Distribution partners. Donor Partners are private companies that trust us with their end of line and discontinued products. These goods are then distributed, for free, to people in need through our Distribution Partners, charities, community and neighbourhood groups.

We provide business excess, life essentials like shampoo, bedding, nappies, washing powder, warm clothing, to the people who need them most around the UK, like vulnerable children and families, homeless people and those suffering addictions or mental health problems, lonely elderly and disabled people.

Each year we give peace of mind to thousands, providing the breathing space individuals and

Emerging from lockdown in our 20th year

IN 2021... WE REDISTRIBUTED A RECORD

2021 saw us completing our 20th year. A year, at the end of which, we all hoped to be leaving behind us Covid lockdowns and social restrictions. The last two years have been a period of major transition for Giving World. We have come through it stronger and more efficient.

3,279,566 life essential products, to 900,411 vulnerable individuals

In all, in the 20 years since Giving World started, between 2001 and 2021, 13.735,872 products have been saved from landfill, representing 56,379 tonnes of CO2e emissions. Importantly, over 5 million people in need have been helped.

We cannot thank enough all our supporters, funders, donors, partners, and volunteers for their generosity and confidence in our work, enabling us to successfully navigate a challenging arena. The vital support we have received, particularly during 2020/21, has helped us to streamline and ramp up our operations to meet the need as we continue to face significantly increased demand.

As part of Giving World’s 20th year celebrations last year, we asked our partners - company donors, supporters and charities - to express in one word what Giving World means to them, their beneficiaries, staff and volunteers. There were so many responses we can’t list them all but common among them are the 20 words shown opposite, testimonials of our 20 years.

In 2021 we redistributed a record 3,279,566 life essential products to 900,411 vulnerable individuals, children and families across every region of the UK (2020: 1.4m products to 619,356 people).

Our impact

We measure our impact by means of a monitoring and evaluation system developed in partnership with the University of Leicester.

11.1%

CHARITY'S OWN USE

Recording our reach to ten main beneficiary categories, we survey beneficiaries throughout the year. The aim is to measure any 'improvements in life chances' and/or 'reduced feelings of isolation,' as a result of our intervention.

It is impossible to overstate the wide reaching impact the goods have on beneficiaries. We have powerful stories to tell of making low incomes stretch; preventing debt and high risk loans; reducing social isolation; and alleviating the effects of trauma and poverty.

Just some of their stories...

"I was so grateful to receive a package with toiletries, cups and plates which helped me hugely in the refuge."

• 'Domestic and sexual violence has been on the rise since the pandemic started and victims need as much support as possible,’ says a community group in Chesterfield that rehomes victims. They add, ‘Leaving an abusive situation means survivors have to go without essential items when already facing a difficult time so anxiety is high. It may seem a small thing but to be able to have clean clothes or a few items for their home means the absolute world to people in this situation.’ Sarah was rescued by the Police from an abusive relationship. She said: ‘When the police arrived at the house they did not give me any time to pack, so I had to leave with my child without anything for baby and myself. I was so grateful to receive a package with toiletries, cups and plates which helped me hugely in the refuge.’

2021 IMPACT:

4,012 BENEFICIARIES SURVEYED

82.7%

reported an improvement in life chances 98.2% reported reduced feelings of isolation

School children and young people have been particularly hard hit by the pandemic, their learning and well-being deeply affected. Many schools expanded their support, not only to their pupils but also to the families experiencing hardship. A teacher in Lincolnshire expresses the impact of Giving World’s support: ‘Every item that you have donated is making a difference to our children. 79% of them qualify for free school meals, the threshold for qualifying being an annual household income of less than £7,000. This sort of money does not go a long way and the pandemic has exacerbated this. Some of our families had jobs in the gig economy that disappeared overnight and others relied on mutual childcare arrangements in order to work, which were not able to happen with the restrictions. It was the ‘non-essentials’ that went missing first: games, toys, art equipment and books. All those elements that we know are essential to the holistic upbringing of a young mind were no longer available to our families who had to prioritise food and rent. Thanks to your donations, we can put a little bit of colour back into the homes of our families.’

The year in pictures GivinyWorldAnnual Report&Accounts2021111

"We are committed to preventing generations of children and families from falling into disadvantage."

The year ahead

We are dealing with matters of such intertwined complexity in the world today that the mind truly boggles under the weight of it all: war in Europe, worsening supply chains, fuel and energy instability, rising prices, the list can go on.

However, at its most basic level what we know is that the severest impact will be felt by those already struggling financially. And there will be many, many more newly vulnerable children and families in the year ahead.

We are committed to responding to the needs of people in poverty and those facing multiple inequities, collaborating with our business and charity partners to divert surplus stocks to fulfil needs.

Relationships with related parties

Personal Care Packs Ltd Personal Care Packs Ltd distributes by way of gift aid funds received from the supply and distribition of Health Care Products.

Financial instruments

The company is registered as a charity and its Charitable Objects are:

To relieve poverty and sickness and to advance education by the provision of financial aid, grants, goods, equipment and by other such means as are exclusively charitable as the trustees in their absolute discretion determine.

We distribute new business end of line stock and equipment to people living in poverty across the UK. Essential supplies are given for free to the most vulnerable in our communities.

Objectives, strategies and activities

In 2021 we redistributed 3,279,566 (2020 1,408,622) brand new business surplus products to 900,411 (2020 619,539) people in need.

Public benefit

Giving World’s only mandate is to help people in need through the distribution of business surplus products for free to communities in need.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Going concern

The Charity is adequately funded and there are no material uncertainties with the ability to continue of the value of assets.

Structure, governance and management

Nature of governing document

The charitable company is constituted under a Memorandum of Articles and is governed by its Articles of Association. The liability of its members in the event of the company being wound up is limited to £1.

Objectives and policies

The charity's activities expose it to a number of financial risks including credit risk, cash flow risk and liquidity risk. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the charity’s policies approved by the board of trustees, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives to manage these risks. The charity does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Cash flow risk

Interest bearing assets and liabilities are held at fixed rate to ensure certainty of cash flows.

Credit risk

The Charity’s principal financial assets are bank balances and cash, trade and other receivables, and investments.

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

The Charity has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.

Liquidity risk

Further details regarding liquidity risk can be found in the Statement of accounting policies in the financial statements.

Employment of disabled persons

The Company operates an equal oppotunities policy.

Creditor payment policy

New trustees are given copies of the charity’s legal documents, management information and accounts, together with general reading material about the charity and Charity Commission literature. This is followed by meetings with the Chair and other Trustees.

The annual report was approved by the trustees of the charity on June 4th 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors of Giving World for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and 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.

Approved by the trustees of the charity on June 4th 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Giving World

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021 which are set out on pages 22 to 34.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As the charity’s trustees of Giving World (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 Giving World 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 Giving World's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ICAEW, 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 Giving World 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

1 Charity status

The charity is limited by share capital, incorporated in United Kingdom.

The address of its registered office is: 92 Burleys Way Leicester LE1 3BD

Authorised for issue date

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Giving World meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements.

Income and endowments

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Grant provisions

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1000 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate Furniture and Equipment 20% Straight Line

Fixed asset investments

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Investment income

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

Fixed asset investments, other than programme related investments, are included at market value at the balance sheet date. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their market value at the start of the year, or their subsequent cost, and are charged or credited to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period of disposal.

Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in market values during the year and are credited or charged to the Statement of Financial Activities based on the market value at the year end.

Trade debtors

Trade Debtors are amounts due from customers / Benefactors
