Manchester Deaf Centre Trustees, annual report for the year ended 31 March 2022 Governance. People and Operations The trustees rvliew the alms. objectlves and artivities of the tharlty each year. The trustees have referred to the guidance contsined In the Charity Commission's general guldance on public benefit when revlewing the charity's aims and objertives and in planning its futu activities. In particular. the trustees conslder how planned attlvities Y￿11 contrlbute to the aims and objertives that have been set. Govemlng document Manchester Deaf Centre was established in 1846 as Adult Deaf and Dumb Institute. The original constitution was adopted in 1866. It changed its name in 1990 to Manthester Deaf Centre. The Deaf Centre moved from Grosvenor Street in 1975 to its preS￿t premlses in Cravrford House, Booth Street East. The Deaf cent￿ became an incorporated charity on 3 October 2005, having previously been an unlncorporated charity no. 221247. The Deaf cent￿ is governed by MerrK)randum and Articles of Association. Company status The CoM￿nY Ss Ilmited by guarantee and all member5 have agreed to contribute a sum not exceeding £1 in the event of a wlnding-up. Goveman Our organisation is proudly govemed by a diverse Board of Trustees who are predominantly from the Deaf/deafened/hard of hearing community. Allled with the ski115 of deaf staff members with which we work, their experiences of work and lrfe make for authentic, grounded direction respectful of and ￿sponSive to need across the hard of hearing. Dldeaf and deaf blind communities of Manchester and the wider city region. Theirs is a shared job of leading oryanlsational and service development within the bounds set by our charitable objectives. Trustees Manchester Deaf Centre continues to be led by a Board of Trustees who are mainly Deafldeafened/hard of hearing. The Trustees bring invaluable lived experience to their work and help with Strategic dirertion-5etting, service and operational ovetsight, finanoal management and the assurance of legal compliance. Around the table, we have expertise from a range of professionals to help galvanlse the Board for the fvture challenges and opwrtunities to which the organisation must respond as the groups of inte￿t and sooal identlty we serve, right across Greater Manchesterfs hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened community, begin to emerge from the Cowd-19 pandemic. try to find their footing afresh and plot a forward path to brighter fubjres. staffing Manchester Deaf Centre employed 31 staff this year, our BSL/CPD provision, speciallst advocacy teams in Salford and Trafftird, and Children & Young People's Service teams seeing particular growth. Over the course of the year we enjoyed a number of successes in grant application as reflected elsewhere in these accounts. bolstering our stsff team also enabled our pursuit of new contracts to diverslfy the Income streams with which Manchester Deaf Centre WO￿$. The on-golng pandemic resulted in our losing income as courses were cancelled, Interpreter ljookings reduced in number, room hire stopped as the building dosed and bar income stopped. It really put pressure on our core operating budget.

Manchester Deaf Cent Trustees. annual ￿port for the year ended 31 March 2022 Monthly staff meetings rnoved to Zoom online, but still provided the Chair of Trustees and Centre Manager with opportunity of learning exchange, professional and personal 5UPPOrt as we transitioned to new, mainly detached and Covld-safe or online ways of working in sustainin9 esseritial Deaf advocacy and wellbeing selvices. Most staff swtched to full-time home working. Smaller team meetings by Zoom were a150 encouraged to help maintsin a thared understanding of prOg￿S wlth different work streams and uplift those strnggling to sustain their spirits in isolation from o)Ileagues. Volunteer5 We are espeaally grateful for the many Voluntee￿ Sticking by and continuing to support our organisation when many fa￿d very challengin9 Situations of their own, uncertainty over employment, anxiety caused by restriction5 on caring forfamily rnembers and so on, we were and remain hugely grate￿1. Thls gave the Deaf Centres. Board and management team great encouragement, and provided reason for 9￿at pride. Here again we would like to retterate our thanks. A further posltive that presented before the year end was Manchester City Councils further extension of OMVCS fundin9, duly enabling us to start exploring the p055ibility of engaging a new part- time colleague to glve dedicated time to volunteer recruitment, induction, support, supervislon and coaching; the organisation of training and work plans; the administration of recognltion and reward schemes; and the mapping-out of progre55ion opportunities whenever the time to move on or need of moving on comes. We engaged a volunteer co-ordlnator to quality assure experiences, increase MDC'S volunteer retention rates and the retum ￿alised on our investment of time and money in superrfision and training. Partnership worting Though the extenston of restrictiorts, the pandemic crr*nwJ tocurtail much of our v￿rk, still we sought to connect and collaborate in the interests of doing all that we could to support hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened people in acute need. Through the year, we also took opportunrty of rep￿senting hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened citizens of the city and surrounding areas on a number of public service and policy groups, hopefvl of inftuencing and informing change so a5 to level things up for a cohort too often CUt￿Ut or forgotten hence the disproportionately poor outcomes too often realised across the board, education, employment, health, housing etc. Ensuring that hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened people have a volce In deosion-maklng around the city is very imwrtant of course If we are to play our part in ensurin9 that they can move freely in and out of services and systems, enjoy good healthcare and leisure opportunitie5, access and interact Ydlth the public ￿alM and local amenities on an equitable basis, but landscape-shaping to the detriment of organi5ational wellbeing and core service impact IS a risk we have continued to guard against.

Grants MDC continues to apply for grant funding and hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened people can work with us to shape and execute our plans and a Needs Analysis to pursue additional contracts, but as the country emerges from the pandemic we do reco9nise that we will have a challenge on our hands. We have revised our business plan and the Boaril and staff are as one on the importance of sustaining our service provision and forging ahead. We are hopefijl that, working in partnership with others, facilitating this and progressing organisational and service development plans that emerge, will be one of our foremost priorfties in 2022123. Reserves pollcy The Board of Trustees have established a policy whereby they seek to hold sufficient reserves to continue the current activities in the event of a drop in funding and earned income for 6 months (approximately £200,01)O covering staff and general running costs). Work towards this target is on- going. Risk management The charity trustees have giv￿ consideration to the major risks to which the charity is exposed and satisfied themselves that system5 or prO￿d￿re$ are e5tabli*hed in order to manage those risks.

Manchester Deaf Centre Trustees. annual report for the year ended 31 March 2022 In summary This has been another challenging year for Manchester Deaf Centre, bLrt through the challenges of the pandemlc we found ways of doing differentty and assisting in people's hour of need; we ¢JJnt(rMJed to provmle a sustained ser4ice provision to as full an extent as possible and did our utmost by those we are here to senie. The pandemic ha5 taken its financial toll with Income lost through the drop in course take-up, the loss of interpreter bookings, room hire and soaal bar revenue5 as noted. but a5 the country emerges from the public health crisis, the hard of hearing, Deaf and deafened communities we serve will need our organisation'ssupport more than ever to recover lost ground, find their feet and positive trartion again as the wider economy and bigger picture soaety strive to put their pieces together again. We must continue to be well-placed to help working age adults recover mental and physical health, flnandal stablllty, career andlor enterprise planning. We must W15ure that we make our services at MDC acces%ble, we reach out creatively and viith compassion, need our starting point for every encounter and intervention no matter whether we're speaknng with thildren and young people long dIstan￿d from their friends or older people isolated, afraid and in poor health. We must adapt and innovate within the financial constraints that we will work and take inspiration from all that has gone before us and worked so hard to develop a re5pon5ive organisation imparting so FQSitively on the lives of so many.
