The trustees who are also directors of Fulham Good Neighbour 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 2024. 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 Neighbour 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 Neighbour Service.
In 2006 Fulham Good Neighbour 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 Neighbour Service received The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service, and in 2022 won its first international award from the International Congress of Healthy City Design.
In 2023, Fulham Good Neighbour Service was awarded a London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham Civic Award and represented the Borough at the Local Charity Champions’ Reception at 10 Downing Street.
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.

A Round Up of Our Year 2023-24
We continued to deliver activity at the community centre six days a week, which is themed around food, exercise, or creative and cultural activity. This work is led by our Social Clubs Coordinator, Ruth George, and has seen Significant growth over the year. Decorating & Home Repair, led by Stephen Fay, has also seen strong growth, particularly in terms of the number of beneficiaries accessing the project.
Digital Inclusion Drop-in commenced early in 2023/24 enabling us to broaden our digital support to beneficiaries, while continuing to provide one-to-one support, device loan and data bundles. The Drop-in was the invention of our Digital Inclusion & Communications Coordinator, Rubab Butt, and has addeda fantastic new dimension to the project.
Our community Choir was introduced just before the start of 2023/24 and has developed over the course of the year. The Choir is facilitated by the Rhythm Studio and supported by our Volunteer Coordinator, Grace Fabean. Grace has ensured that the Choir has become an integral part of our celebrations throughout the year with terrific performances at our Coronation party in May and at our first Lunch Club Open-Mic.
We also commenced Peer Facilitation Group Training early in the financial year, developing our Capacity Building strand of work in partnership with The New Normal to deliver a 10week training to our own staff and volunteers and others from partner organisations including Nourish Hub, The NHS Primary Care Network, Nubian Life Resource Centre, Action on Disability, and Richmond Fellowship. Grace was subsequently asked by The New Normal to develop the project further as a course facilitator so that other local practitioners can develop their skills in facilitation. This work will commence early in 2024/25.
Other Capacity Building endeavours have included Dementia Awareness, Suicide Awareness, Safeguarding, Fire Safety, Cyber Crime and Financial Fraud Awareness training. Our staff, volunteers, and partners also benefitted from Mental Health First Aid, provided gift-in-kind from Higgins Partnership and EmergencyFirst Aid provided gift-in-kind by Fulham BID. The team makea difference to so many people; the room was full of love for your work

We were challenged in November 2023 by the departure of several Socia/ Club facilitators who pursued new opportunities. Increased costs to our Silver Clubs the same month presented a challenge too, which we mitigated against by subsidising the difference so that beneficiaries did not see a cost increase. Jonathon and Mariola Woollard, our partners at the Yellow Panda Pub Co, deserve huge credit for everything that they have done to ensure the continuation of our Chair Based Exercise project and for their delivery of new Silver Clubs at St Peter's Church and the Elm Pub. They also continue to generously cater for our Sunday Afternoon Tea as gift-in-kind. We were also very happy to welcome Roopa Basu as our new Art Club facilitator. She has embarked on a series of exciting new projects with the group, which will lead to the public display of their work on local hoardings in 2024/25.
Following a successful crowd-fundraiser in 2022/23, our community raised funds for the installation of solar panels at our community centre. This is projected to save us £500 annually in energy bills, while significantly reducing our carbon footprint too. It sits alongside projects such as our on-site composting of all gardening waste, and electric van use, as part of our ambition to support the Borough to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2030. The first four months following installation saw us reduce our energy consumption by 60% on the same months of the previous year.
Following our first international award in 2022 for our partnership with Imperial College London's Environmental Policy department and Nubian Life Resource Centre, we were recognised by London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham’s Civic Honours as a winner in the Contributions to Building a Stronger, Safer, Kinder Borough category. This led to us representing the Borough at 10 Downing Street’s Local Charity Champion’s Reception.
A still from our 2023 promotional film, supported by Media Trust
We were fortunate to secure funds from the Media Trust for a professional promotional film, which has had great success. It has so far been recognised by a Smiley Charity Film Award and the Brand Film Awards. The film featured our beneficiaries and staff alongside professional actors, while showcasing many of our projects.

University College London researchers have continued to show interest in our work this year, which has included independent studies: analysing our Digital Inclusion project, providing Systematic Review of relevant project research, collaboration with the Institute of Global Prosperity, and a Social Hackathon, which saw 17 student researchers workshop ideas to support our volunteer recruitment and retention. Our Gardening Coordinator, Barney Valentine, secured funds for the Hackathon and hosted the volunteers at our community centre, Rosaline Hall,
It was pleasing to have grown our income again this year, and to have secured a fourth successive surplus in our accounts. Our income grew by 44% on last year and by 87% over the strategy period from 2020/21. Notable successes included a National Lottery Community Fund Cost of Living grant, which is funding our new Customer Relationship Management (CRM) database. This internal project is led by Olivera Milosevic and will vastly improve our ability to manage data into the future. Jac Davies, our Finance Coordinator, supported fundraising efforts again this with year with Barney, Grace and Rubab each securing income for their respective projects too.
The research behind our projects
The Index for wellbeing in later life (2017)' 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, Craft, Reading, and Chair Based Exercise projects therefore continue to be core to our work, as well as Choir introduced in 2023.
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 continue to take affirmative action on disability. As per the local Disabled People’s Commission? we will ensure that there is ‘nothing about disabled people without disabled people’. This continues to be an area for development, which we are doing in consultation with Action on Disability.
Our volunteers
We benefitted from the invaluable dedication of 251 volunteers, up from 204 volunteers in 2022/23. This increase to volunteer numbers over recent years is due to the support of 100 Research Partnership staff providing corporate volunteering via their ‘Christmas Boxes’, and fundraising events. We have also seen increasing numbers of volunteers support research projects in recent years, particularly University College London who joined us for a Social Hackathon this year led by Barney Valentine. We have also supported several research volunteers to use us as a case study for their dissertations in recent years. The graph below provides additional detail as to how volunteers have supported our work.

82 of the 251 volunteers support our projects directly and are therefore interviewed, reference and DBS checked, attend induction, and offered regular training opportunities, including Safeguarding and First Aid. A further 20 volunteers supported our projects by volunteering on our award-winning award-winning promotional film ‘Into the Fold’ including 14 members of a professional film crew that volunteered their time.
14 volunteers and staff participated in Mental Health First Aid over two days in January 2024, provided as gift-in-kind by Higgins Partnership
Intergenerational volunteering opportunities have also added a great deal of value to our projects over the last few years, including collaboration with Rhythm Studio students, Thomas's Fulham School, Fulham Boys School, Bute House, Latymer School, and The Hurlingham Academy. Due to complications around collecting data for those under 18 years of age, we have not included them in our numbers.

Our event at Fulham Palace to present the findings of the Imperial College evaluation of our Adopt a Garden project saw our partner Nubian Life Resource Centre serve food grown from the community garden, as well as additional presentations from Royal Horticultural Society, and each of the three partners. Over 40 beneficiaries, staff and volunteers attended, including 15 Nubian Life elders from their day centre and also wide range of other stakeholders.

Befriending: the project transitioned largely to telephone support during the pandemic, which was also the case for projects such as Adopt a Garden, and Digital Inclusion. As such we saw a Steep rise in Telephone Befriending and an increase to the regularity in which volunteers and beneficiaries were in contact during the pandemic (see graph below). As projects returned to the community centre, we saw an anticipated fall in numbers. We restructured our staffing in 2022/23 to apply more resource to the project, which has seen growth over the last year.

Good Neighbour Scheme: the project continues to provide practical support to older and disabled community members. This might include grocery shopping, wheelchair pushing, an escort to an appointment, or medication delivery. We restructured our staffing during the 2022/23, so to allocate more resource to the project. This resulted in an increase to delivery in the last year.
Social Clubs: In 2023/24, these clubs have continued to flourish, providing activity six days of the week from our community centre. A particular highlight this year was a trip to Eastbourne, generously funded by The Daisy Trust, and returning in August 2024. You can see the full schedule of activity below.

Capacity Building: This strand of work is our commitment to support the development of our people, inclusive of beneficiaries, volunteers, staff, and partners. In 2023/24 it has continued to include a fantastic partnership with Fulham BID, which has now seen 20+ Fulham Good Neighbour Service staff and volunteers trained in Emergency First Aid, and the use of our defibrillator. It also included workshops in partnership with the Dementia Action Alliance so to promote improved understanding in the Borough of how we can best support those with dementia and their families. 14 of our volunteers, staff and partners also benefitted from and passed the two-day Mental Health First Aid training.
We aiso delivered a 10-week Peer Facilitation Group training at our community centre, Rosaline Hall, delivered by The New Normal. This was completed by 12 participants, including staff and volunteers from Fulham Good Neighbour Service, NHS Primary Care Network, Nourish Hub, Richmond Fellowship, Action on Disability and Nubian Life Resource Centre. We have since secured funding, in partnership with The New Normal, for our Volunteer Coordinator, Grace Fabean to deliver the training in 2023/24.
Other capacity building endeavours have included utilising the launch of our solar panels to deliver a series of workshops to the community on sustainable energy consumption, and our ‘Techy Tea Party’.

Financial review
Fulham Good Neighbour Service ran ata surplus for a fourth consecutive year. We had run at a planned deficit for the preceding four years following Nina Dobosharevich's very generous 2015 legacy. 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.
We continue to benefit from a diverse range of income streams. Our biggest funder during the year was the National Lottery Community Fund followed by the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and City Bridge Trust.

Following the injection of funds into the sector at the start of the Covid pandemic in 2020, we secured a strong surplus. However, so to deliver more activity for our beneficiaries and spend down our reserves, we have reduced our annual surplus over time as illustrated by the graph above.
The graph below shows the impact of this reduced surplus, coupled with increased income, on spending down our high level of reserves on our charitable services.

Risk and Reserves Policy: To best manage potential risk to Fulham Good Neighbour 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 Neighbour 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 value of free reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil the charity's continuing obligations on a bi-monthly basis.

Trustees: The board consists of not less than three and no more than ten persons elected by members of the company (Art.30.1). The members of the company are the trustees (Art.4.2).

All new trustees go through a recruitment and induction process and are selected with a view to ensuring that the board has an appropriate mix of skills and experience relevant to Fulham Good Neighbour Service strategic and operational requirements. Regular trustee skills audits help to identify any gaps in skills or experience.
On appointment, trustees complete a register of interests, and receive copies of the charity's accounts, Memorandum & Articles of Association, and major policies.

Fulham Good Neighbour Service Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31st March 2024
- 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 iegal 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, for an independent revaluation, on 9" May 2019.
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 asa 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.

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.
