Trustees’ Annual Report

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 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).

Objectives and aims

The objects within the Memorandum of Association state the commitment of the company to serve the community of Retford, Bassetlaw and the surrounding villages. Particular emphasis is put upon the areas of local regeneration, promotion of good health and care of the elderly, and support for families in our community. One of our priorities is to “provide a safe place where all people are valued and respected and empowered to achieve their full potential”.

When planning our activities for the year the Trustees have considered the commission’s guidance on Public Benefit, and complied with section 17 (5) of the 2011 Charities Act and, in particular, the specific guidance for charities on the relief of poverty. We aim to provide services that benefit the poor and isolated in and around Retford and Bassetlaw through:

The company receives significant support from The Well, Retford Baptist Church, providing administrative support as well as a base (The Well) for the services being delivered. Also, key to the company’s success is its amazing band of volunteers.

The company takes seriously its responsibility to nurture, protect, and safeguard the welfare of all who are part of the many activities of the company, and in particular, the many children and young people who are part of our community as well as our volunteers and staff.

We have a formal safeguarding policy and where appropriate our workers have completed enhanced disclosures by the Disclosure and Barring Service. We also have a formal health and safety policy covering activities undertaken.

Significant activities

This report covers the period of operation for the company from July 2023 through to June 2024. The primary objective for this period was to professionally deliver services in and around The Well, Retford Baptist Church, Hospital Road, Retford. In doing so we aim to continue being known in and around the town as a group of reliable, trustworthy, and committed people able to help when the community is in need.

A significant objective for the period was to continue to promote the facilities which were completed in early July 2009 as a safe, and welcoming place for the whole community.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Lunch club has run throughout the year and has catered for lonely, vulnerable, dementia sufferers and their carer’s, as well as some people being signposted through Social Prescribing. Monday’s luncheon club regularly caters for 50 people while the Wednesday one sees around 25/30 attending.

There is a great group of volunteers helping the kitchen team make this happen to whom we are very grateful.

At Christmas 2023 the catering team served Christmas dinner to 65 people which was subsidised by money received form the Sir Stuart Goodwin fund and given to help the elderly and vulnerable.

It continues to serve families with a safe place to bring their little ones and meet other families in similar circumstances. Families attending have voiced their gratitude for how the group has served them and made them welcome and given their child opportunities to learn to socialise. Some have voiced that it is a lifeline for them and appreciate the love and care they receive week by week which encourages them.

At Christmas we were able to provide a party for 80 children and 120 adults with food and a gift for each. During the summer of 2023 we met informally in the local park to ensure we kept in contact with the families. This also enabled families to bring older siblings with them and it was great to meet up with some past members of Baby Kingfishers and it was exciting to have over 50 families join us

Our enthusiastic team of volunteers serving the adults and children remain faithful and keen to serve the families for which we are very grateful. It has also been helpful to have some new team members join us.

Once again in Autumn 2023 we acted as a Collection Point for Operation Christmas Child shoebox appeal. We worked with the local media and social media and were able to spread the word about the campaign throughout Bassetlaw and enables people to collect leaflets and shoeboxes from the Well and bring their shoeboxes into our Collection point which was open for three days in November, We collected 717 shoeboxes. These were sent to Belarus and the Middle East

Trustees’ Annual Report

We run a Christians Against Poverty (CAP) Debt Counselling Centre, supporting local people through debt problems in partnership with CAP. Bassetlaw District Council (BDC) contribute towards the running costs of our Centre under a Service Level Agreement and we are most grateful to the Council for their financial support.

Our service is completely free and is available to all individuals regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation.

In addition to delivering a debt counselling service, that help clients become debt free. We aim to provide holistic support for our clients; so, we have supported our clients with various food shops, the purchase of school uniforms, Christmas hampers, gas and electric top-ups, and secured emergency client funding through the charity Acts435. Thomas played a key role in the national CAP Christmas fundraising campaign which raised over £700,000. He has met with the local Job Centre and has been seeking to publicise the service.

At the end of March 2024, Joanne Bond, our CAP Centre Manager, retired after 19 years in the position. We are so grateful for her faithful service over a long period. In March, Thomas Fritchley's contract was renewed for a further year and he is now the Centre's sole Debt Coach. We had intended to expand the capacity of our CAP Centre from 4 new clients per month to 7. We secured external funding for this expansion in the expectation that Joanne and Thomas would both be available to deliver debt counselling. Following the retirement of Joanne, our expansion plans have been put on hold, pending the appointment of a part time trainee Debt Coach and a part time Service Team Leader.

The Art Group meets to share ideas, techniques & chat. Members have continued to produce paintings, drawings, pastel work and knitted or crocheted items. The group continue to enjoy each other’s company & work.

During the year we ran various film nights for family with tuck shop, creating a safe fun safe.

October 31[st] 2023 We ran a light party as an alternative to Halloween festivities. It was amazing to have over a 100 people join us We had activities and games involving pumpkins and light alongside a light disco and food served to all who attended.

We showed a video at the end and each person and child left with a bag of sweets and a bookmark. We were so grateful to a team of volunteers who gave up their time to serve this event.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

Income during the year totalled £32,945, which was generated through a combination of individual donations and subscription-based support from various partner organisations. After accounting for expenditure, the charity achieved a surplus of £12,406 for the period.

At the year end, the charity held total funds of £22,223, comprising:

These balances will be carried forward to support the charity’s ongoing activities in the next financial year.

The main financial need has been for the Christians Against Poverty (CAP) Centre Manager. The manager is employed for four days per week. Retford Baptist Church pays for one day. Bassetlaw District Council pays for two days and The Well Community Projects funds the fourth day through donations. From March 2023 there has been another part time employee for Christians Against Poverty who is fully funded by Retford Baptist Church.

FUTURE PLANS

The Trustees and finance team have worked closely together and carefully planned for various scenarios which we feel need to be flexible and carefully monitored but at present the charity is financially sustainable going ahead into the new 2024-2025 financial year

We remain very aware of our elderly, parents, vulnerable clients, and children and are keeping in contact with as many as possible to offer mental, emotional and spiritual support throughout this time as well as looking at new ways to serve our community.

We plan to reflect on our support of partner organisations and will seek to organises events that support the community and families in particular.

We go forward into the coming year, knowing that through our networking links, staff, volunteers and careful planning we can aim to open more activities for the residents of Retford and Bassetlaw.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Basis of Preparation

Retford Baptist Church is a private company limited by guarantee registered in England. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are to advance the Christian faith.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) issued in October 2019. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), The Charities Act 2011, The Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. They are presented in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity, and rounded to the nearest pound.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

Assessment of Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure are sufficient with levels of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Fund Accounting

Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set aside resources for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or the term of specific appeal, often know as a ‘special offering’ in the church.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.

The Well Community Projects

Year Ended 30th June 2024

Notes to the Financial Statements

Incoming Resources

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to that income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt, and it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Grants and Donations

Where donors specify that grants or donations must be used in a future accounting period, the income is deferred until those periods.

Where donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the period in which the preconditions are met.

Where donors specify that grants or donations are for a particular restricted purpose, which does not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, the income is included in incoming reserves within restricted funds when received.

Resources expended

Resources expended are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of VAT. Individual costs are allocated between the various headings in the Statement of Financial Activities by reference to their underlying nature or the reason for which those costs were incurred, on an estimated percentage basis.

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 and Provisions

Creditors and provisions 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.

Tangible Fixed Assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Equipment 33% Straight Line, 20% Straight Line, 10% Straight Line and 5% Straight Line

Fixtures and fittings

20% Straight Line and 10% Straight Line

Notes to the Financial Statements

Pensions

Contributions, which are payable into the personal pension plans of individual members of staff, are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. The charity operates a salary sacrifice scheme in respect of pension contributions.

Operating Leases

Rental charges payable under operating leases are charged on a straight line basis over the terms of the lease.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Legal Status of the Charity

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity.

Critical accounting estimates and judgements

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

There are no critical judgements, significant assumptions concerning the future and key sources of estimation of uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
