## **OPEN HANDS COVENTRY**
## **Year ended 31 May 2021**
## **Report of the Trustees**
The directors of Open Hands Coventry Ltd (“the charitable company”) are its Trustees for the purpose of charity law and throughout this report are collectively referred to as its Trustees. The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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 (FRS102) (updated 1 January 2019).
The Trustees present the charitable company’s report and financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2021.
## _**Objectives and Activities**_
The purposes of the charitable company, as set out in its Memorandum of Association are:
- The provision of suitable sheltered residential accommodation to enable persons in Coventry and Warwickshire who have successfully undergone primary treatment for addiction to alcohol-containing substances to further their rehabilitation following completion of their primary stage treatment;
- To assist recovering persons in Coventry and Warwickshire formerly addicted to alcohol and alcohol-containing substances to receive appropriate advice, information, counselling and other assistance in an appropriate residential environment.
- To relieve poverty and distress among persons in Coventry and Warwickshire who are recovering from alcoholism but who are not yet fully self-supporting; and
- To promote such other charitable purposes as may from time to time be determined.
The principal activities of the charitable company in the year under review was to benefit the public by promoting the prevention of alcohol misuse and the provision of a stable and supportive recovery house for people recovering from alcoholism (and the eventual rehabilitation of those people). We also provided an extended outreach to alcoholics and their families in the local community.
To further these objects/activities we have worked with local agencies to promote, where appropriate, an abstinent approach to problem drinking based on mutual aid, via the twelve-step recovery model. Our referral routes include drug and alcohol agencies, mental health services, general hospitals; GP surgeries and homeless organisations. Clients also self-referred.
In undertaking these activities, the trustees have had due regard to the general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit.
## _**Achievements and performance**_
We receive no social funding in providing an alcohol rehabilitation programme for our clients; neither do we charge our clients for this service. Operating revenue is mainly from rental income, residents' contributions and a small number of public donations.
Generally, our client group are homeless or vulnerably housed men who wish to stop drinking and stay stopped. Many of our clients have other health issues such as mental ill-health, physical impairments and drug abuse.
1
Our experience has shown that it will take several years for our particular client group to complete their rehabilitation programme, to experience improvements in their physical and mental health before moving on in other areas of their lives.
The central philosophy of our rehabilitation work is the Twelve Step recovery model. Since our foundation in 2006, our work is peer lead and epitomises the concepts of The Expert Patient Programme. Residents gain recovery by mutual aid, sharing their experience, strength and hope with each other.
## **OPEN HANDS COVENTRY**
## **Year ended 31 May 2021**
## **Report of the Trustees continued**
Since December 2009, we have undertaken over 600 community alcohol detoxifications without incident or cost to the local health economy. Open Hands Coventry provides this as a free service to people on benefits or low incomes. We developed this service in collaboration with a local Consultant Psychiatrist specialising in addictions. The client's GP agrees to prescribe the required medication, and Open Hands Coventry facilitates the process in their supported accommodation. Open Hands Coventry Estimates that providing this free service has saved the local health economy in the region of £30,000 to £62,750 per year for the last 11 years
## _**Financial review**_
The charitable company’s key financial objective is to ensure financial stability and continued solvency year on year so that it achieves it’s objectives and activities. For the financial period ended 31 May 2021 Open Hands Coventry recorded a surplus on unrestricted funds of £13,358 (2020: £9,952) and the new financial year begins with a surplus on unrestricted funds of £139,454 (2020: £126,096).
The principal funding sources remain unchanged from prior years with 68% of all income being provided by resident’s Housing Benefit (2020: 71%). The reliance on this income stream exposes the charity to the risk of adverse changes in the Government benefits policy. This is considered to be the principal financial risk facing the charity.
The directors have reviewed the reserves of the charity as well as the nature of the income and expenditure streams, with due consideration of the risk highlighted above. The review concluded that to allow the charity to be managed efficiently and to provide a buffer for any adverse changes in legislation, a general reserve should be maintained to cover approximately three months of operational expenditure costs. This would allow the charity to down-scale or merge with another organisation should there be any major adverse changes to the Government’s benefits policy.
The reserve policy at the period end equates to approximately £86,000, but has been set at £100,000 to guard against the rising cost of living. The charity’s free reserves at the year-end show £139,454. The charitable company is in a strong financial position to achieve its objectives and activities in a sustainable way. The reserves policy will be reviewed each year. During this reporting period the charity migrated its accounts to a cloud-based solution, which has improved the ease of trustee’s access to financial information. Beginning in February 2022, the charity will embark on a project to fully systemise and digitise the back office function. Among other things, this will allow the admin team to attach invoices and receipts to all bank and cashbook transactions, further improving transparency and ease of Trustee’s access to the financial information. This project is key to the future health of the service.
2
Due to the nature of the charity’s income, there has been only a minimal financial impact as a result of the pandemic. The residential housing has remained at capacity throughout lockdown due to restrictions on residents’ movements. As we move out of Covid-19 restrictions there is a significant waiting list of individuals requesting assessments. As such we can reasonably expect rental incomes to remain stable for at least the next 12 months.
There has been no noticeable increase in the charity’s expenditure as a result of the pandemic and the trustees forecast a surplus of less than £20k in the year to 31 May 2022, prior to any extraordinary costs relating to the restructuring project. The trustees have set aside a budget of £5,000 for this project, which includes the engagement of any third party professional advice and system implementation. A further budget will be considered for the rejuvenation of the on-site office facilities, whilst the cost of hiring a small off-site office will also be explored.
The trustees therefore confirm that they expect the charity to be a going concern for at least the next 12 months.
## **OPEN HANDS COVENTRY**
## **Year ended 31 May 2021**
## **Report of the Trustees continued**
## _**Structure, Governance and Management**_
The charitable company was incorporated on 10 November 2005, registered as a charity on 31 July 2006 and commenced trading on 1 October 2006. The charitable company is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association.
The Memorandum and Articles of Association require a minimum of 3 and maximum of 10 Trustees and one Trustee must be appointed by the Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Birmingham.
The charitable company is managed by its Trustees. Mr J McCrea is also an employee of the charity and is responsible for the day to day running of the services of the charity. He receives remuneration for the services provided as allowed for in the Memorandum and Articles of Association at a value equivalent, or less than the local market rate. A fellow Trustee Rev. A Norton is also paid for services provided to the charity, again at or below market rate. As part of the restructuring exercise, the charity will look to back-fill elements of Mr J McCrea’s role, allowing him to gradually step away from the day-to-day operation of the charity. Mr J McCrea will remain in his position as a trustee and will still play an active role in the resident’s recovery from alcohol addiction.
Ideally, the charity would look to divide up elements of Mr J McCrea’s role and share this among a team of trusted and long-standing service users. The trustees will also explore the possibility of outsourcing the preparation of housing and other benefit applications, to allow this core team to focus on the recovery and wellbeing of the service users. As with the restructuring of the back-office function, the trustees believe that this project is key to securing the future health of the service and its residents.
## _**Appointment of Trustees, Induction & Training**_
3
The charity is still undergoing a review of its governance and management structure. Ideally the charity would look to recruit trustees who are themselves in recovery from alcohol addiction; however the charity is finding it a challenge to find such individuals that are willing to take on the increasingly difficult role of a charity trustee. The procedures for trustee selection, induction and training will be considered as part of this review.
The medium-term future (the next four years) is uncertain. The charity's primary income is from rental charges and client contributions. This income is vulnerable because of the uncertain future of supported accommodation such as ours. Consequently, the charity is finding it a problem to recruit individuals willing to take on the increasingly demanding role of a charity trustee. Another barrier is that we expect our trustees (and specific volunteers) to have an enhanced DBS. We hope, however, to appoint another trustee in the next few months.
## **COVID-19**
So far, the charity has managed to navigate its way through the various restrictions. The residents of the main house are protecting themselves and others by abiding with the guidance laid-down by the Government.

## _**Small company provisions**_
In preparing this report, the trustees have taken advantage of the small companies’ exemptions provided by section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.
This report was approved by the Trustees on 20[th] February 2022 and signed on their behalf by: -
## **Rev A Norton Director**
## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities**
The Trustees (who are also directors of Open Hands Coventry for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the income and expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements the trustees are required to:-
- Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
5
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF OPEN HANDS COVENTRY (‘THE CHARITY’)**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 May 2021 which are set out on pages 7 to 13.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity 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.
6
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
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:
- 1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
- 2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- 3) 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
- 4) 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 (FRS102).
I have no concerns and have come across no 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.

## **OPEN HANDS COVENTRY**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **Year ended 31 May 2021**
## **1. Accounting Policies**
## **Status of the company**
The charitable company is limited by guarantee, is registered in England and Wales, and does not have share capital. The liability of members is limited to £1 per member.
## **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 (FRS102) (updated 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Open Hands Coventry 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).
## **Going concern statement**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Charitable Company will continue to operate. The validity of this assumption is dependent upon the continuance of support from the Charitable Company's key funders and in response to the progress made by the Charitable Company in pursuing a viable budget. The Charitable Company's current business plan shows that the Charitable Company will be able to operate in the foreseeable future. Based on this understanding, the trustees believe that it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments, which would result from the basis of preparation being inappropriate.
## **Funds**
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 and grants subject to conditions imposed by the provider or by specific terms of the appeal under which the funds were raised. The restrictive conditions are binding upon the Charitable Company.
## **Income**
Income is recognised when the charitable company 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 relating to future periods, as a result of donor-imposed conditions specifying the time period, has been treated as deferred income.
Income dependent on certain conditions, amounting to more than mere administrative requirements, is recognised when the conditions have been fulfilled.
## **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 charitable company of the item is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably.
10
In accordance with the Charities SORP FRS102, general volunteer time is not recognised.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charitable company which is the amount the charitable company would have been willing to pay to obtain the services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
## **OPEN HANDS COVENTRY**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **Year ended 31 May 2021**
**1. Accounting Policies (** _continued_ **)**
## **Interest receivable**
Bank interest is shown on the basis of amounts receivable in the year.
## **Expenditure**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charitable company to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Depreciation is provided at a rate calculated to write off the cost over a period of less than the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:
Office equipment & furniture 25% reducing balance Computer equipment 33% straight line Motor vehicle 25% straight line Only fixed asset purchases above £500 are capitalised.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits repayable on within a three-month notice period.
## **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.
## **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.
## **Taxation**
As a registered charity no provision is considered necessary for taxation.
## **Leasing commitments**
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over
the period of the lease.
