Report of the Trustees

The Trustees are pleased to present their report together with the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Structure, Governance and Management

The charity is governed by a Board of Trustees. The Board is responsible for the strategic direction and management of the charity and monitoring the achievements against the charitable objectives. The Board meets quarterly where officers report on project progress, grant award recommendations and financial performance.

The day to day management of the Trust is provided by Catalyst Housing Limited, the parent entity, under the responsibility of its Director of Catalyst Communities. The DOSH Big Lottery (project offered support to tenants living in social housing, in the London Borough of Ealing) both funded support that is similarly provided via Catalyst Housing Limited.

Organisation

The charity was registered as a company on 17 January 2006 with registered company number 5677196. The company received charitable status on 26 April 2006 with registered charity number 1113922.

The charity’s governing documents are the Articles of Association and it is incorporated as a private company limited by guarantee and not having share capital under the Companies Act 2006 and any further legislation of a similar nature and any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof. The Articles of Association grants to the Trustees their general investment powers.

The Trustees who have served during the year and since year end are set out on page 2. All Trustees are appointed by the Catalyst Housing Group board and are not subject to a limited period of time on the board. The Trustees meet quarterly to review the performance of the charity against the business plan.

Trustees are not remunerated. The Members are listed on page 2 of these accounts.

Financial information about Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust’s subsidiary, Southall Day Centre Limited, is set out in Note 8 to the accounts.

On 9 October 2019 the Board of Southall Day Centre Limited agreed to transfer its business to Catalyst Housing Limited. This was subsequently approved by the boards of Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust on 17 October and the board of CHL on 23 October.

From 1 April 2020 Southall Day Centre Limited has transferred all its business to Catalyst Housing Limited.

Risk Management

Risks managed by the charity Board and officers are the appropriate award of grants to residents and local community groups. A set of criteria has to be met which is tested and monitored by the charities administrator. Each community grant has to be agreed by the Board of Trustees.

The Trustees have overall responsibility for establishing, maintaining and reviewing the system of internal controls but day to day responsibility has been delegated to employees at Catalyst Housing Limited. The charity is subject to the same control environment as the rest of the Group and is consistent with ‘Internal Control: Guidance to Directors’ principles. Risks to which the charity is exposed are reviewed on a regular basis and procedures put in place to manage them as far as possible.

A key principle risk at present is the ongoing Covid-19 global pandemic, and its effect on our colleagues, customers, supply chain and wider economy. We will continue to monitor the progress of the pandemic in conjunction with our parent company, and the impact of the customers during this time.

Report of the Trustees

Objectives and Aims

The charity’s mission is to enhance the lives and the communities of West London and the South East in order to create better futures for both the residents of Catalyst Housing Limited and the wider local community.

The objective of the charity is the relief of persons who are in necessitous circumstances and in need of assistance and to improve the social and economic conditions of disadvantaged neighbourhoods by enhancing the independence, choice and prosperity of people that live in them.

Trustees want to maintain their support for practitioners working to help residents reduce debt and improve financial inclusion, into employment or increasing skills and education, ensure young people are able to engage in positive activities outside of school and offer improved community activities in line with service outcomes.

Activities and achievements

The successful launch of the new grants programme has been the focus for 2021/22. After reviewing the grants amid the unique circumstances of the Covid-19 pandemic, a new programme started in April 2021. Two grant funds have been created to meet the service outcomes of the Communities Team. This ensures customers could be supported through hardship as well as to progress their aspirations and in their health and wellbeing needs. It also allows customers to follow through on ideas for events and projects that enhance their communities.

The Customer Support Fund has three streams – Alleviating Hardship, Achieving Aspirations and Health and Wellbeing. Most grants have been awarded to alleviate hardship for residents as the impact of the pandemic continued. A renewed emphasis on prudence has meant being able to support those most in need and keep limited funds available going forward.

The Community Support Fund again has three streams – Events, Project and Green Spaces. As mandatory restrictions and carefulness around social contact continued only a limited number of grants were awarded. As confidence grew particularly near Christmas older customers in particular enjoyed support for parties after the experiencing isolation for so long.

The new grants programme has successfully bedded in and been used well to support customers. Ongoing review has allowed for minor changes to enhance the offer as well as scrutiny of procedures.

Report of the Trustees

Financial Review

Grant awards are met from the charity’s remaining reserves.

Reserves policy

The charity has a number of designated reserves; the purpose of the funds is to give grants and loans to community groups delivering projects to benefit the community in their areas of operation, at the discretion of the sub-committees. The balance of the designated reserves at the year-end was £275,786 – Note 13.

The designated fund for Southall Day Centre Building and Repairs Fund is specifically for the maintenance of 20 Western Road, which is owned by the Trust. This fund receives a £10,000 per annum transfer from the unrestricted fund plus 2.5% interest on the previous year’s balance.

The company calculate the reserves as that part of the charity’s unrestricted income funds that is freely available after taking account of designated funds that have been earmarked for specific building or major equipment purchase, research and other projects.

The available reserves currently stand at £152,833 and are calculated as follows:

Total unrestricted funds of £428,619 Less designated funds (£275,786) Available reserves £152,833

Results

The deficit for the year amounted to £63,065 (2021: £128,519). In the 2021 financial year there was grant activity in respect of The Big Lottery and Active Londoner both of which completed in 2021.

Outlook for 2022/23

The focus for 2022/23 will be on ensuring successful delivery of the grant programme. The main actions for the year will be:

Report of the Trustees

Going Concern

Available reserves are £152,833 and the budget for 2022/2023 is £141,232. After reviewing the charity forecasts and the results of the stress testing, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of no less than 12 months from the date of sign off of the financial statements. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Auditors

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust has no requirement for an Annual General Meeting, as such the auditors appointment will continue until such time as the Trustees appoint new auditors.

Disclosure of information to the auditors

The Trustees who held office at the date of approval of this report confirm that, so far as they are each aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity’s auditors are unaware; and each trustee has taken all the steps that he/ she ought to have taken as a Trustee to make himself/herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are aware of that information.

Report of the Trustees

Statement of Trustees Responsibilities in Respect of the Trustees Report and the Financial Statements

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including its profit or loss of the charity for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and 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. 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.

The Trustees are responsible for ensuring that the report of the board is prepared in accordance with the 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).

Financial statements are published on the charity’s website in accordance with legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements, which may vary from legislation in other jurisdictions.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO MEMBERS OF CATALYST HOUSING CHARITABLE TRUST

Opinion on the financial statements

In our opinion, the financial statements:

We have audited the financial statements of Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust (“the Charitable Company”) for the year ended 31 March 2022, which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence

We remain independent of the Charitable Company in accordance with the ethical requirements relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

Conclusions related to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charitable Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report and Financial Statements, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The other information comprises the Report of the Trustees. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider

9

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Other Companies Act 2006 reporting

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charitable Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic report or the Trustee’s report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion;

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees Responsibilities in Respect of the Trustees Report and the Financial Statements, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charitable Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Charitable Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

10

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

Audit procedures capable of detecting irregularities including fraud performed by the engagement team included:

Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Financial Reporting Council’s (“FRC’s”) website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

11

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Charitable Company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charitable Company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charitable Company and the Charitable Company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

Notes to the financial statements

1. Accounting policies

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust is a charity incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act.

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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), the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting & Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015) issued in March 2015 and the Companies Act 2006.

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Income received in advance of a performance or provision of other specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Donated services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

16

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

Notes to the financial statements

1 Accounting policies continued

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of work or a specific project. The charity holds designated fund reserves for the purpose of giving grants and loans to community groups delivering projects to benefit the community in their areas of operation and to maintain the Trustees’ obligations on 20 Western Road, Southall, respectively.

Going concern

Available reserves are £152,833 and the budget for 2022/2023 is £141,232. After reviewing the charity forecasts and the results of the stress testing, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of no less than 12 months from the date of sign off of the financial statements. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified as ‘Expenditure on charitable activities’ and includes the costs of activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:

Asset category Annual rate
Freehold property 2%
Computer equipment 25%

Tangible fixed assets, are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as condition of the asset and future use of the asset are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash at bank and cash equivalents includes cash and deposit investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

17

Catalyst Housing Charitable Trust Financial Statements 31 March 2022

Notes to the financial statements

1 Accounting policies continued

Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimations.

In preparing these financial statements the key judgements have been made in respect of the following:

Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated to expenditure on charitable activities.
