CHAIR’S INTRODUCTION

Every year the challenge of introducing the FACES Annual Report is just a little different. Last year we used the words ‘unprecedented’, ‘lockdown’ and ‘global pandemic’ in the report, rather with the feeling that by the time came for the 2020-21 report we might have been starting to see change. It remains an unprecedented time, a time of huge challenge in the world of charity and not-for-profit, and most importantly for the families we serve. We do not need to scour research documents to know that the pressures on families during the pandemic were great. Jobs on furlough, home working, jobs lost, children needing to be home schooled. Space to work, technology and time were all squeezed and uncomfortable in many households. As the saying goes—we were all in the same storm but the boats were very different.

Team FACES has continued to create and innovate with new ways to keep families afloat. The team became even more adept at remote working, ensuring their own safety was also protected with office rotas and distancing.

Our Chief Executive will tell you more about the detail of services provided, the 3,600 lunches, 220 easter eggs, 240 laptops and tablets, and over £70,000 distributed in crisis funding. That is a tip of the iceberg snapshot - there has not been a moment during this year when the team were not striving to support a family in one way or another.

3,600 lunches y - = Lr DT f , 220 Easter eggs 240 laptops | A £70,000 crisis funding

The good news - and there is some during this extraordinary year - is that we have had the most amazing support from the community, with funds, gifts and offers of support. We have been successful in a number of grant bids, ensuring that our services can continue to run, and that as we start to see that light at the end of the tunnel, that we will be an even stronger service going forward with more ways of working, and more strategic flexibility.

Do enjoy reading this report for a year in which we laughed and cried in equal measure

My immense thanks go to Wendie Harvey, our indomitable CEO, to our fabulous staff team for the consistent work and dedication, to our volunteers that gives of their time so generously and have been so willing to try new ways of volunteering this year, and our volunteer Trustees who take their care of the charity very seriously to ensure a safe and stable base from which the team work.

Excellence in the not-for-profit world is vital. FACES continues to grow as we take on new challenges across the board, in family support, sexual exploitation work, domestic abuse, poverty issues and everything in between. Using creative and innovative strategies, having leadership for whom the word ‘no’ does not seem to compute, and for putting families at the very centre of all we do. FACES has and will continue to thrive in this ever more challenging world.

Volunteers

FACES volunteers reflect the diversity of our communities. They provide us with a wealth of understanding about their lives and that of the area they live in. We value and encourage time in the volunteer training to discuss life experiences.

This forms a key part of the learning which has been invaluable in creating and improving services, promoting volunteering opportunities and it gives us a better understanding of family life in Bedford Borough.

We have robust safer recruitment policies and procedures. All volunteers attend the 40 hour induction training and complete the LSCB e-learning on Awareness of Child Abuse and Neglect (core version) as part of this compulsory process.

Volunteers are supervised on a regular basis in line with the family review. This is approximately every six weeks for the majority of our volunteers. During this supervision, volunteers are encouraged to develop their skills through further e- learning in areas of interest to them such as Mental Health, Domestic Abuse etc.

Our volunteers come to us with a wide variety of reasons for wanting to volunteer; some are empty nesters, some want to explore the possibility of working in a family Induction and Training of Board support role, some are looking to bring Members more experience to vocational and further educational courses and some are families who have been supported by FACES in the past want to give something back and help a family. in a situation that was similar to their own.

REPORT FROM THE CEO

The challenges presented by the pandemic brought out the very best in the FACES team. We went from providing early help services to crisis delivery overnight on 23rd March 2020 when the country was locked down for the first time.

Many of families in Bedford Borough turned to FACES for urgent assistance and we delivered. We were quick to access crisis funding which paid for household essentials. We were also quick to set up an appeal for used laptops which were professionally refurbished and distributed to our most vulnerable and marginalised children and young people.

In addition we delivered support virtually to parents struggling with home schooling and coping with anxious children. Our Practitioners helped families to navigate lockdown when their usual sources of support were not available.

In 2020/21 FACES supported over 3,000 children and young people which was over 2000 more than the previous year. Many of the staff and volunteers were juggling with providing this incredible support with their own children’s home schooling.

During the pandemic, many parents have told us that they have become increasingly anxious regarding their financial security. We have seen a surge in the number of families needing to access support for the first time ever. We have seen an increase in children and young people struggling with mental health issues and online exploitation.

As we move beyond the crisis I am confident that we are in a strong position to adapt to meet the changing needs of vulnerable children and young people. However, whilst the crisis has continued, demand has grown and fundraising is under great pressure. It will be even more important in the coming months and years to redouble our fundraising efforts, and think creatively about how we generate the funds that we need to continue. It is also important to us that we maintain our identity as a local, independent and pre-eminent family support charity.

Given the unprecedented times we find ourselves in, it is hard to predict what lies ahead. Our focus continues to be on those we support, and their changing needs. Taking time to admin@facesbedford.org reflect over the past 12 months on where we have come from makes me more determined 01234 270601 as CEO to help secure our future. I am also greatly encouraged by the resilience, innovation and commitment of our trustees, volunteers and www.facesbedford.org staff.

TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE ACCOUNTS

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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 charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, Financial Reporting Standards in so far as they are appropriate to the charity, and with the Statements of Recommended Practice issued by the Charity Commission. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FACES BEDFORD

report on the accounts for the year ended March 2021 set out on pages eighteen to thirty . Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of the independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FACES BEDFORD

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Faces Bedford ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (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 the Company 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 your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of FCA 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 the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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

  3. 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.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Subsequently to the year end, the global health crisis caused by Coronavirus (COVID-19) has had a significant impact on all businesses. The trustees have assessed the potential impact of this uncertain situation on the charity and does not consider that it will lead to any subsequent impairment of the reported amount of the value of assets. Contingency plans have been put in place in order to mitigate the negative effects of any period of interrupted trading, which will enable the charity to continue as a going concern.

Income

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

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Raising funds

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure on the general objectives of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds which have been designated for specific purposes by the trustees.

Pensions

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FACES BEDFORD

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Faces Bedford ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (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 the Company 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 your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of FCA 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 the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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

  3. 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.
