PLIAS RESETTLEMENT LTD Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees. Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) Year ended 31 December 2021 PLIAS Resettlement is a community based not-for-profit organisation and charity that reduces re-offending by providing support, advice, and guidance to people with criminal convictions. Our services are primarily available to residents of the London Boroughs of Brent and Harrow and other Boroughs in West London. Our vision is to work collaboratively and constructively through a partnership approach to help make neighbourhoods a safer place for the community. We work towards combating crime, reducing the risks of reoffending, reducing the fear of crime, and supporting alternative chol￿S for individuals who may be at risk of committing crime. We are guided by a set of principles that characterise the work we do and which inform our approach to leading and developing our people. We Value: We ensure staff and volunteers are equipped with the skills, expertise and knowledge to effect positive change. We Work Together: We believe in working with others and building strong partnerships and collaborations to deliver positive change We Listen: We listen to and learn from clients ensuring their voice is heard and acted upon within the organisation to frame better service delivery. We are committed to continual improvement We Include: We treat all with respect and dignity, recognising and embracing diversity and supporting all to achieve their goals. We Achieve: We achieve positive outcomes by delivering quality services that meet the needs of clients in a non-judgemental environment The last year has seen PLIAS Resettlement continue to successfully build its reputation and influence while growing as an organisation and moving into the new post-pandemic delivery environment. This growth has also been the occasion to recognise the need to take on the challenges of being a larger organisation. We have now moved into our new location in the Ealing area and are beginning to explore further the opportunities provided by the larger premises and our liaison with new local partners. Tom Chandler achieved a distinction in his MBA which is all the more remarkable for being awarded to a candidate from the not-for- profit sector. As well as congratulating him, we welcome his application of his new knowledge to the future development of the organisation. One of the challenges of being a larger organisation is the need to review our HR functions and we have already begun the process of implementing an HR strategy to take this forward. As a larger organisation we also recognise the need to review and expand our board membership, which I will be taking a lead on with support from existing Trustees and the CEOS. Services went from strength to strength this year and of particular note is the initiative to write a book giving voice to the experience of women who have experienced domestic violence and coercion supported by the Phoenix PACT project. The book launch in May was an exhilarating event and a testament to the resilience and courage of the contributors. An important reminder to us all of the value of the work we are doing and also the value of finding places and opportunities to speak about and share the work we are doing. So while not without its challenges it is important to recognise that PLIAS has taken some big and bold steps over the past year and more of the same is planned in the coming 12 months.

PLIAS RESETTLEMENT LTD Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 December 2021 Accounting policies (continued) Incoming resources All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity. it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably. legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established. income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers. income from contracts for the supply of ServI￿S is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted. Resources expended Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates: expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods. expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities. All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis. Tangible assets All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation. Any fixed assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the market value at the balance sheet date.

PLIAS RESETTLEMENT LTD Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 December 2021 Accounting policies (continued) Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Equipment 15_20% oncost Impairment of fixed assets A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. Financial instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a paty to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 10-

PLIAS RESETTLEMENT LTD Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 December 2021 Accounting policies (continued) Financial instruments (continued) Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised. For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. Defined contribution plans Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises. Limited by guarantee The charity is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. 11
