CHAIR'S INTRODUCTION
I am pleased to present this report for the year 2021-22. As in the previous year, the covid-19 pandemic has greatly affected our activities. Nevertheless, Trent Dementia has continued to operate and provide support to people with dementia and their families.
We have managed our finances prudently and we gratefully acknowledge the generous support of Dementia Research UK. We have maintained our standards of governance by monitoring and updating our internal policies. We have no safeguarding or data protection issues to report in the past year.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activities
Our main focus is on the project of empowerment for people with dementia and their carers, and support to the peer support groups in Nottingham. Since the covid-19 lockdown, Trent Dementia has offered regular groups providing support and craft activities for people with dementia and their family carers. We have provided 400 individual care packages last year to offer activities and comfort to people affected by dementia. The groups have been led by Dr Jane Rowley, project manager, and Ghazal Mazloumi, project development worker, with assistance from Suzanne Osborne and Eleri Clarke, and the trustees gratefully acknowledge their fantastic work.
Examples of activities include:
We provide weekly craft evenings with people living with dementia and their family caregivers. We augment these sessions with support calls to some of the members of this group.
Support to Friends for Life monthly meetings at Westdale Lane church, providing quiz materials, answering questions about WhatsApp and other mobile app technical problems, serving tea/coffee at the meetings, and providing information about dementia support services in Nottinghamshire.
Support to Friends for Life monthly meetings at Westdale Lane church, providing quiz materials, answering questions about WhatsApp and other mobile app technical problems, serving tea/coffee at the meetings, and providing information about dementia support services in Nottinghamshire.
Accompanied facilitators of dementia peer support groups to Woodbrooke, Birmingham, in September 2021, paid by DEEP network.
Day trips with people living with dementia and their family caregivers to Shugborough Hall and Trentham Gardens/Monkey Forest.
Coffee & chat talks for people living with dementia and their family caregivers on Zoom during summer 2021.
Supported Gedling walking group of people living with dementia and their family members. We will be starting our monthly walking group in May 2022 in Highfields Park.
We have supported people to engage with research, including the impact of Covid- 19 as well as editing a book for children about hygiene which has been published. We also supported a person with dementia to publish her story book for her children including her life story, recipes and poems. In addition we conduct our own surveys and interviews to ensure people are getting the type of support they need to live well with dementia.
We support individual members with signposting to other sources of support, especially in dealing with difficulties in gaining health or social care. We also support people who want to write to their MP's to highlight the challenges they face.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
Over the year to 31st March 2022, the Trust’s account unrestricted funds have increased from £4,500 to £24,730. Income consists of regular monthly payments from Dementia Research UK, together with one monthly standing order. During 2021-22, we received five grant payments totalling just over £26,000; hence the relatively large current account balance. The largest of these were two grants of nearly £10,000 each from the National Lottery Community Fund and the Boots Charitable Trust.
With a baseline monthly expenditure of around £3,000, there are currently reserves for over six months. The charity’s reserves comprise of general reserves to provide working capital and to secure the continuity of the charity’s activities in the future. To fulfil our charitable purpose requires that we secure grant income to maintain the current level of activity.

The company is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association which are on public file at Companies House and also available at the registered office.

The number of trustees permitted by the Articles of Association shall be not less than three and not more than twelve.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Trent Dementia Services Development Centre
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Trent Dementia Services Development Centre ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022.
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
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.

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 cost 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.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
Creditors
