## Statement of Financial Activities
for the Year Ended 31st March 2021
The trustees who are also directors of Fulham Good Neighbours Service for the purposes of the _Companies Act 2006_ , present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of _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 2019).
## **Our history**
Founded in 1966, Fulham Good Neighbours Service grew from the _Fulham District Nursing Association_ which itself was established as early as October 1919.
Following the First World War, the Mayor of the _Metropolitan Borough of Fulham_ established the _Fulham War Memorial Trust Fund_ . This funded the construction and ongoing maintenance of a war memorial, located in Vicarage Gardens on Putney Bridge Approach. The remainder of the Fund was invested so to establish the _Fulham District Nursing Association._
In 1966 the then-named _London Borough of Hammersmith_ became responsible for local health care provision. Consequently, _Fulham District Nursing Association_ was dissolved. _The Fulham War Memorial Trust Fund_ transferred the remaining funds to the newly established Fulham Good Neighbours Service.
In 2006 Fulham Good Neighbours Service moved to Rosaline Hall on Rosaline Road. Built in 1901, Rosaline Hall was initially a mission hall for the _Dawes Road Baptist Chapel_ . In 2019 Fulham Good Neighbours Service received _The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service_ .
## **Vision, Mission and Values**
**Vision Statement:** _To create an inclusive community where neighbours look out and care for each other_ .
**Mission Statement:** _We enrich the lives of older people and people with disabilities in Fulham by providing practical help and creating opportunities to: Contribute to society; Connect with others; and Live life to the fullest_ .
**Our Values:** _Trustworthiness_ ; _Being welcoming & inclusive_ ; and _Proactivity & flexibility_ .
## **Our year, 2020/21**
A fortnight ahead of the 2020/21 financial year, the UK went into national lockdown. The Coronavirus pandemic punctuated the entirety of the year, which followed. A series of government lockdowns and restrictions necessitated a transition from services, which had been largely community centre based at Rosaline Hall to services delivered to doorsteps via our work in _Homes & Gardens_ , in the wider _Community_ through our _Good Neighbour Scheme_ , and _Online_ .
Compliance with government guidance, collaboration with local partners and the wider sector, and a sound understanding of local Coronavirus infection rates was essential so to best support beneficiaries, volunteers, and staff.
The pandemic highlighted the dynamism of our community of neighbours. _Social Clubs_ such as our _Lunch Club_ , _Sunday Afternoon Tea_ and _Silver Clubs_ were replaced by a _Food to the Door_ service as part of our work in the _Home and Garden_ . In partnership with _The Smile Brigade_ , we ensured 85 beneficiaries received deliveries at least weekly, inclusive of toiletries. _Gardening_ , and _Decorating &_

_DIY_ also adapted so to ensure that they were delivered in a Covid-secure way. Our work in the _Community_ saw 114 active volunteers meet requests for shopping, medication delivery, dog walking and much more via the _Good Neighbour Scheme_ . _Befriending_ transitioned to telephone support, as did our _Reading Group_ .
_Online_ , _Digital Inclusion_ transitioned to phone and other forms of remote support. Foundations laid by this project ensured _Art_ and _Chair Based Exercise_ transitioned swiftly to _Online_ iterations, directly supporting beneficiaries in the comfort and security of their own living rooms.

## **Looking forward**
Fulham Good Neighbours Service intends to maintain all project iterations and developments from 2020/21, while at the same time relaunching all projects that were delivered prior to the Coronavirus pandemic.
We continue to provide alternatives to in-person projects, respecting that some beneficiaries prefer to access our projects _Online_ or in their _Home & Garden_ (as opposed to in the _Community_ at Rosaline Hall or more widely). At the same time, we are facilitating phased returns of all in-person projects with stringent Coronavirus risk management measures in place.
_The Index for wellbeing in later life_ (2017)[2] identified 40 indicators which enhance an individual’s sense of wellbeing. Of these, _creative & cultural participation_ and _physical activity_ were the two most significant factors. Our _Art_ and _Chair Based Exercise_ projects therefore continue to be core to our work. These projects are now delivered in-person at Rosaline Hall while concurrently streamed online. In this way we can simultaneously meet the needs of beneficiaries more comfortable online in their home environment and those that prefer the community centre setting or who are unable to engage online.
As per the _London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham’s_ (LBHF’s) _Older People’s Commission_ (2019), we aim to make Fulham the best place to grow old. The Commission identified concerns held by local older people, which we directly aim to combat. We continue to be committed to providing activity which enables access to services; reduces the impact of poverty and deprivation; and mitigates against loneliness and isolation.
We aim to take affirmative action on disability. As per the local _Disabled People’s Commission_[3] , we will ensure that there is ‘ _nothing about disabled people without disabled people_ ’. This continues to be an area for development.
We remain committed to supporting older and disabled people living in Fulham. Our present offer includes:
## **Support in the** _**Home & Garden**_ via:
- _Decorating & DIY_ – for those that cannot pay, nor have ability to do the work themselves
- _Food to the Door_ – hot meals/food packages and toiletries delivered up to four times a week
- _Gardening_ – for those that cannot pay, nor have the ability to do the work themselves. Also:
- _Adopt a Garden_ – befriending & gardening support
- Online Gardening workshops – delivered in partnership with Nubian Life
- **Support in the** _**Community**_ and at our Community Centre via:
- _Good Neighbour Scheme_ - grocery shopping, medication delivery, appointment escorts etc
- _Befriending_ – via telephone or in person
- _Social Clubs_ – • Art, • Chair Based Exercise, • Lunch, • Reading, • Silver, • Sunday Tea

## **Our community**
**Our beneficiaries** : As of 31st March 2021, we had 1,309 beneficiaries recorded on our database. However, the figure who accessed our services between 1st April 2020 and 31st March 2021 was 479. This represented an increase from 474 in 2019/20. Throughout the year we are in touch with each of the 1,309 via our _Birthday Card_ outreach project.
**Our volunteers** : We benefitted from the invaluable dedication of 114 volunteers during this time, up from 107 volunteers in 2019/20. All volunteers provide references and are DBS checked. Due to Coronavirus restrictions, we ran our first ever _Volunteer Induction_ online in March 2021 (pictured below).

Statement of Financial Activities
for the Year Ended 31st March 2021
## **Our activity**
**Key highlights** : Volunteers, staff, and partners ensured beneficiaries were supported with Coronavirus safety at the forefront. While this curtailed some activity, it provided opportunities elsewhere. Ever closer partnerships were forged with _The Smile Brigade_ , _Maskell Biokineticists_ , Flora Duley and _Nubian Life_ .
The foresight to invest in _Digital Inclusion_ in recent years, and Lucia Ciolanel’s excellent work in developing the project enabled a swift transition to _Online_ services. The _Online_ format of both _Chair Based Exercise_ and _Art_ grew in popularity to the extent that additional weekly classes were delivered to satisfy demand. The flexibility of _Maskell Biokineticists_ and Flora Duley respectively ensured that the projects flourished.
Monique Newton’s achievements, as Founder and CEO at _The Smile Brigade_ , are rightfully recognised across the Borough. 85 of our beneficiaries benefitted from this partnership on a weekly basis. Stephen Fay delivered hot/cold/chilled meals, groceries, and toiletries from our electric van to housebound beneficiaries and others hit particularly acutely by the pandemic.
Barney Valentine led on developing risk management procedures so to allow for continued delivery of our _Gardening_ projects. This limited the number of beneficiaries that we could support to those with front gardens or gardens with accessible side gates, though ensured continued project delivery for almost the entirety of the year.
_Adopt a Garden_ , led by Lucia Ciolanel, massively over-achieved on targets for a second year, ensuring that beneficiaries continued to be supported via an innovative series of online tours, workshops, and outreach projects. This has led to further investment in the project from the _National Lottery Community Fund_ , inclusive of an external evaluation which will take place from 2021/22.
Staff also invested in their own learning and development. This included Ruth George successfully completing all eight modules of the _European Computer Driving Licence_ – a huge achievement over the course of 12 months - and Lucia Ciolanel completing the _Prince2_ project management qualification at foundation and practitioner level. Barney Valentine studied at the _School of Social Entrepreneurs_ leading to the 2021/22 launch of a fundraising strand within the _Gardening_ project. This is an extremely exciting development, which will cover up-front costs of developing the project in increasingly sustainable ways such as onsite composting of all garden waste.
A thorough data review ahead of the 2021 strategy update, detailed areas for development in terms of our monitoring and evaluation and outreach. This will prove pivotal in ensuring that we support those most in need going forward. The learning from this review will be applied to a more detailed analysis over the course of 2021/22.
The pandemic unfortunately necessitated the cancellation of the Parsons Green Fair. In 2019/20 income from the Fair had represented 14% of our total income at £28,331. Further, the contracting of the global economy resulted in both tightening of previously available funding and falls in the value of our investments. However, other funding opportunities emerged, and we were fortunate to benefit from specific Coronavirus grants from _The National Lottery Community Fund_ , _City Bridge Trust_ and _The London Community Foundation_ . The combination of these funds amounted to 27% of total funding for the year.
2020/21 saw Fulham Good Neighbours Service avoid running at a planned deficit for the first time since Nina Dobosharevich’s generous legacy donation in 2015. While lockdowns lent themselves to less expenditure in many ways, Jac Davies should also be credited for ensuring value for money for the charity. Through careful contract and cost management, expenditure was reduced from £244,786 in 2019/20 to £208,384 this year.

We were also successful in achieving media recognition for our work. This included a _BBC_ radio interview and article in _Urban Village London_ . Longstanding volunteers Lyn Halley (pictured below) and Jill Weston (pictured on page 11) were also featured on the _Hammersmith Bid_ sanitiser stations as exemplars of outstanding voluntary work.
**The projects:** We offered the following projects for the benefit of older and disabled people living in Fulham.
## **Support in the** _**Home and Garden**_
_**Decorating & DIY**_ : due to Coronavirus restrictions, the project had to be placed on hiatus for almost the entirety of the year. Stephen Fay, our _Decorating & DIY_ lead, was pivotal in supporting our _Good Neighbour Scheme_ and _Food to the Door_ project during this time. He has since relaunched the _Decorating & DIY_ project.
_**Food to the Door**_ : this project was new, providing an alternative to the _Lunch_ , _Silver_ and _Sunday Afternoon Tea Social Clubs._ We partnered with _The Smile Brigade_ to deliver food parcels and toiletries to housebound beneficiaries. Stephen Fay utilised our electric van (pictured below) so to ensure 85 of our beneficiaries benefitted on a weekly basis. While we were unable to support as many beneficiaries as we had in previous years via the _Social Clubs_ , we were able to achieve a significant increase to the number of meals that were provided.

_**Gardening**_ : our staff and volunteers[4] completed 653 gardening tasks for 241 beneficiaries. This was a considerable increase on last year due to the development of the online and outreach strands of the gardening projects. Figures this year also include our partnership with _Nubian Life[5]_ delivering the _Adopt a Garden_ project in the north of the Borough. The success of our gardening projects was in spite of Coronavirus restrictions. So to adhere to our Coronavirus risk assessments, Barney Valentine (pictured below), our _Gardening_ lead, was limited to front gardens or gardens that could be accessed by a side gate.

_**Adopt a Garden**_ : The number of gardening tasks, which we completed was bolstered enormously by a second successful year for the _Adopt a Garden_ project in partnership with _Nubian Life_ . The project matches local volunteers with beneficiaries, providing both befriending and garden support. Led by Lucia, the project innovated in numerous ways over the last year, so to ensure that beneficiaries were supported even under lockdown restrictions. This included a series of online workshops and outreach projects.
An online _Terrarium Workshop_ (pictured below) was delivered by _Key Royal Botanic Gardens_ .

## **Support in the Community**
_**Befriending:**_ the project, led by Ruth George, transitioned largely to telephone support as opposed to visits. This saw an increase to the regularity in which volunteers and beneficiaries were in contact. While we are not comparing like for exact like we saw a huge increase in engagement over the year with 1,386 contacts versus 297 in 2019/20. We also saw 105 beneficiaries supported, which was an increase on 37 in the previous year.

_**Good Neighbour Scheme**_ : our volunteers completed 870 tasks for 185 beneficiaries. These numbers were down on 2019/20 but were an increase still on 2018/19. In pre-pandemic times, the scheme encompassed escorts to appointments, respite care, transport, wheelchair pushing, pet care, medication collection/delivery, support for the _Parsons Green Fair_ , and more; however, government restrictions and lockdowns curtailed much of this. The scheme came to focus on _Essential Tasks_ such as shopping and medication collection/delivery.

_FGN creates a community where neighbours look out and care for each other because of volunteers helping me with shopping, gardening, and repairs to my wardrobe due to my disabilities and age_
_**Social Clubs**_ : _Social Clubs_ such as our _Lunch_ , _Sunday Afternoon Tea_ and _Silver Clubs_ were replaced by our _Food to the Door_ service as part of our work in the _Home_ . Our _Art_ and _Chair Based Exercise_ groups went online, while our _Reading_ group transitioned to weekly telephone calls by the group’s lead, Avril Peyton. Avril phoned each of the group, reading a poem to each beneficiary at the same time as a _Befriending_ call.
_I enjoy everything about it, the_ (Reading group lead) _is so cheerful and upbeat as she is at Rosaline Hall prior to lockdown. I appreciate and very much look forward to my Thursday calls - It really is the highlight of my week!_
The _Art_ , _Reading_ and _Carers Club_ returned to Rosaline Hall briefly during a gap in lockdown in September and October 2020.
_**The Parsons Green Fair**_ : Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Fair was unfortunately cancelled this year. The free family festival is scheduled to return on Saturday July 2[nd] , 2022. The event is a key source of income, providing a platform to promote our full suite of services and other local enterprise. _Marston Properties_ , our main sponsor, are fundamental to making the _Fair_ such a success.
## **Support** _**Online**_
_**Digital Inclusion:**_ our volunteers completed 326 tasks compared to 180 visits last year. Since this was largely via telephone or other forms of remote support, as opposed to home visits, it lent itself to more regular contact. During the year 36 beneficiaries were supported by 39 volunteers. The number of beneficiaries was down slightly on last year with many beneficiaries keen to await a return to in-person meeting. Despite this, Lucia Ciolanel ensured a hectic schedule of online activity throughout the year, innovating and collaborating across projects and partners. The photo montage below provides a snapshot of the various activity that took place.

_It's a wonderful service. For year and years, I've been looking for someone to help me with IT. The volunteer, he is so good! I can ask him all my questions. I think when I am done with everything, I might still see him just once or twice a month._
_**Online Art**_ **:** Supported by the _Digital Inclusion_ project, the project went _Online_ for the most part of the year. Due to popularity of the project and beneficiary demand, we added an extra weekly session. This year, the group produced a gallery at both Rosaline Hall (pictured below) and online. A calendar was also produced, which was utilised for both marketing and fundraising purposes.

_**Online Chair Based Exercise**_ **:** Supported by the _Digital Inclusion_ project, the project went _Online_ for the entirety of the year. Again, due to demand, an additional class was added to the programme during 2020/21. While a broadly similar number of beneficiaries were supported as last year, we saw an increase to the number of attendances.

_Through the online Zoom classes, we are able to stay healthy and fit enough to not be so much of a burden on other kind people_
86% of beneficiaries felt that our services helped them overcome isolation and loneliness. This was up from 85% in 2019/20.
_Definitely, YES!_ (Volunteer) _organised, since the beginning of the virus in March, a coffee morning. She, with other neighbours, bought their own coffee and chairs and we had a delightful meeting on the pavement and me sitting on at the open front door._
100% of beneficiaries would recommend FGN to someone else. This figure was the same as in 2019/20.
_I think we are extremely lucky to know of such a fantastic charity_
## **Financial review**
Fulham Good Neighbours Service ran at a surplus for the first year since Nina Dobosharevich’s very generous 2015 legacy. We had run at a planned deficit for the preceding four years. The legacy funds continue to ensure delivery of a wider range of services than prior to their receipt. The remainder of these funds, alongside all additional legacy income, continues to be invested into an Expendable Endowment Fund so to secure the longer-term future of the charity.
Our biggest funder during the year was the _National Lottery Community Fund_ , followed by the _London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham_ . The _Parsons Green Fair_ , which had provided a significant proportion (14% in 2019/20) of our income in recent years, was unfortunately cancelled in 2020 due to the Coronavirus pandemic. We continue to fundraise via other income streams, which are largely made up of trusts and foundations. In addition, we continue to utilise income gained from investments, particularly our legacy income. We were fortunate in 2020 to take advantage of fundraising opportunities, which resulted from the Coronavirus pandemic.
The chart below demonstrates our income diversity for the year.

The second chart specifically identifies that 27% came from Coronavirus specific grants. This amounts to £68,004 which we will not have access to in 2021/22. We have a broad range of funders across various income streams; however, further diversification is important so to spread risk across a greater number of funders and types of funding. Setting income targets with realistic consideration for market trends is therefore essential.

**Risk and Reserves Policy:** To best manage potential risk to Fulham Good Neighbours Service, an Organisational Risk Register identifies potential risks to our Governance, Operations, Finance, and Compliance, alongside measures so to mitigate these risks.
As per our policy, free reserves should provide Fulham Good Neighbours Service with adequate financial stability and the means to meet our charitable objectives for the foreseeable future. As a minimum the trustees aim to maintain free reserves at an equivalent level to one year's operational expenditure with consideration for realistic funding streams.
The trustees believe that risks to the organisation and its property are adequately covered by its insurance and reserves. Our reserves are a mix of designated funds and free reserves. Those funds designated for a specific purpose are retained as such until that purpose is fulfilled. The trustees review the amount of free reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil the charity's continuing obligations on a bi-monthly basis.
Fulham Good Neighbours Service is a _Going Concern_ for the foreseeable future.

## Statement of Financial Activities
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Fulham Good Neighbours Service ('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**
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.

Fulham Good Neighbours Service
Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31st March 2021
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2019)', 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, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
## **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.
Cash donations, gifts, legacies and collections are treated as income in the year in which they are received. Income from special events and for specific purposes are included in the income and expenditure account in the year the event takes place or the purpose is undertaken.
Income from investments and covenanted income including, where appropriate, imputed tax credits are accounted for on a receivable basis.
Voluntary help is not included in the financial statements.
## **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.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Fixed assets, other than office premises, are stated at cost less provision for depreciation at 25% per annum on cost.
Freehold property, which represents the Charity's office premises, is stated at cost in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice. The freehold property is not depreciated as the revaluation model has been used. Instead, the cost of repairs is charged to the Income and Expenditure Account in the year in which it is occurred.
The trustees intend to retain the property. It was last valued on 21st March 2006 and an independent revaluation will be conducted during the course of the financial year 2019-2020.
## **Taxation**
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
## **Fund accounting**
## **Restricted funds**
Where a donor has specified a particular purpose for a grant or donation, the income is shown as restricted income in the Statement of Financial Activities. Any such income unexpended at the year-end is shown as a restricted fund in the balance sheet. Where grants are received to fund capital expenditure, the assets acquired, after any depreciation, are shown as an expendable endowment fund.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **Fund accounting**
## **Designated funds**
Where funds held for general purposes are allocated by the trustees for specific future uses, they are transferred to a designated fund. Expenditure for the purposes specified is deducted from those funds and the unexpended balance is shown as part of unrestricted funds in the balance sheet. If the trustees decide that such funds are no longer needed for the purposes specified, the balance of the fund is transferred to general unrestricted funds.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits**
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
