## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

The relief of refugees and asylum seekers in Yorkshire and Humberside who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress by the provision of education assisting in the relief of their unemployment and assisting their integration into society. 

## **The charity's main activities** 

We believe that every refugee and asylum seeker can reach their potential here in the UK. We work closely with refugees and asylum seekers as well as the wider community in West Yorkshire to make this a reality. 

We work to integrate refugees and asylum seekers by assisting with access to education, requalification, training and employment and strive to build confidence and hope in our clients. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

During the period April 2020 – March 2021 RETAS has continued to develop the service it offers and has enhanced further its reputation in the sector as an organisation that delivers high quality support to its clients. 

## **Charitable Activities:** 

## **Syrian Resettlement Programme (SRP) – UKRS** 

This programme is funded by the Home Office through Leeds City Council and RETAS has been commissioned since 2015 to support those Syrian refugees and others coming to the UK under UKRS via refugee camps. 

## **The 28 Day Transition Project** 

This programme is designed to help newly recognised refugees in Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield negotiate the key steps to independence and integration. The programme is the first of its kind in the country and addresses a longstanding need for support for newly recognised refugees’ migrant during this most difficult of times. 

## **The New Roots Project** 

This programme is run in partnership with the Refugee Council and PATH Yorkshire and is funded by Asylum Migration Integration Fund. It offers crisis support and advice and guidance on welfare, finance, housing, health, and wellbeing, as well as employment and training advice, IELTS course and Security Industry Authority (SIA) support. 

## **Adult Community Learning** 

This programme is funded by the Skills Funding Agency through Leeds City Council. The programme aims to equip refugees and asylum seekers with a range of skills essential for integration, including English language and literacy skills, numeracy, and IT. 

## **The Welcome to Leeds Project** 

This programme is funded by Public Health Leeds. Its aim is to create a culture of welcome in the city, reduce isolation and anxiety, and provide initial support for asylum seekers and refugees on their journey towards independence. 

## **English @ Home Wakefield** 

This programme is funded by Wakefield Council and supports clients with health issues who are not able to attend English classes 

## **“Selim Project”** 

This year has been very challenging with the Covid Pandemic.  In addition to the above activities, we have also focussed on supporting these communities who have been severely impacted by Covid-19 through our “Selim Project”.  Additional funding was obtained from the National Community Lottery Fund which has been very valuable and has enabled us to empower community groups.

## RETAS Leeds 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

Activities that have resulted from the above projects are as follows: Education and employment IAG (Information Advice and Guidance) sessions across West Yorkshire (1250 new clients registered and received IAG contributing towards a total of approximately 1500 active registered clients) 

ESOL (face to face, online learning and support packages delivered during lockdown) IELTS (International English Language Testing System) preparation courses (delivered 2 days per week throughout the year) SIA application support Job placements/volunteering (over 25 placements secured internally) Grants Weekly Housing Group Weekly drop-in Signposting and referral to specialist services Social activities including picnic “Developing You” Programme Awareness raising around Covid-19 Benefits support Housing support including furniture applications Financial support including opening bank accounts, managing bills GP registration Crisis and destitution support Health and wellbeing support Relocation support Driving licence application Support with job and character references Advocacy support including family reunion, liaising with different agencies 

Over 100 refugees gained employment throughout the year as a result of accessing the above services. Jobs included positions in support work, administration, care work, security, warehouse operatives, cleaning, catering, and retail assistants. 

The above projects, activities and outcomes have been delivered in line with the charities objectives of supporting refugees and asylum seekers in their education, training, and employment needs. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the year was £37,334, including net income of £74,598 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £37,264 on restricted funds, after transfers. 

The impact of the global Covid-19 pandemic has not had a significant financial impact on RETAS. During the year we were able to make use of Government funding (such as the Job Retention Scheme) and negotiated revised timescales and deliverables with our project funders. The additional cost associated with the pandemic (such as requiring lower class numbers to allow for social distancing) has been considered as part of our forecasts. 

The trustees have reassessed the charity’s ability to continue for at least 12 months from the date that the accounts are approved and conclude that no material uncertainties exist that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

## RETAS Leeds 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Reserves policy** 

The board of Trustees have considered the appropriate reserve policy in the light of the organisations objectives and risks and have agreed that it is appropriate to maintain a level of reserves between 3 and 6 months of ongoing operational expenses. Based on budgeted expenditure of approximately £510,000, this would equate to a lower limit of £127,500 and an upper limit of £255,000. 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £355,860. 

In the year ahead, grant funding from two of the current sources (Barrow Cadbury Trust) is expected to end, with no guarantee that replacement funding will be secured. The surplus free reserves of £100k will be used over the coming year to allow the work that these sources were funding to continue while replacement funding sources are found. In the event that future funding for these projects cannot be secured, this surplus will also allow for an orderly ending of those projects without impacting the core reserves level of the charity. 

## **Funds held as agent on behalf of others** 

The charity is a participant in the Act 435 scheme whereby the charity acts as an advocate and posts requests for help on the Acts 435 website on behalf of its beneficiaries who are in need. Donors visiting the Acts 435 website can give through the website with the aim of the individual people receiving all of the money donated. The charity advocate then contacts the individual and passes the donation on to them. 

In this way the charity is acting as agent. The actual donations are made to the registered charity Acts 435, who is eligible to claim gift aid on the donations. This is how that charity funds its operational costs. Consequently the advocate charity (RETAS Leeds) is not able to claim gift aid on the donations. 

During the year, RETAS Leeds enabled 154 people to benefit from the scheme, Income of £26,019 was received from people who gave via the Acts 435 website along with a balance brought forward of £370 and £24,844 was passed on to individuals leaving a balance being held by the charity at the year end of £1,545. 

This sum has been excluded from the cash balance at the year end and the donations received and passed on have also been excluded from the accounts in accordance with the Charities SORP FRS102.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. 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 accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper 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 accounts 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. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of RETAS Leeds 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 8 to 14. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable 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 charitable 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 ('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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charitable 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 ACIE which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 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 (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other 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.
