## CHAIR’S **REPORT**
Well, what can I say about the past year! To say it’s been challenging for everyone, our organisation and our members would be an understatement. However, as always it’s proven what a fantastic organisation we are. We have adapted to the situation and learnt new skills in record time. Our members have also adapted after facing the difficulties of the pandemic, including economic hardship, loneliness and an increase in mental health problems. We have lost loved ones and all our community have been there for each other through these tragic times.
I for one, am very proud of our staff and our community in the way we have all pulled together and been there for each other. I would like to say a special thank you to Mags for her fantastic communication with everyone, especially members, who have needed that extra time and for being the person they could talk to. Thank you, Mags.
This year has been a year of change in many ways not least because we said goodbye to Helen Jones, our wonderful CEO who has been with Leeds GATE for over 18 years. We all wish Helen the very best for her future and thank her for her great work at Leeds GATE. We also welcome our new CEO, Ellie Rogers, with open arms and I am looking forward to working closely with Ellie who has taken to the CEO job fantastically.
I would also like to thank our executive board member and treasurer, Laura North, who is stepping down, for her consistent hard work and dedication to the board over the many years she has been involved. Laura was always my go-to lady and I will miss her. Also to Helen McAuslane who is also stepping down, thanks to Helen for her work on the board as she has also had a long involvement with GATE - thank you, Helen.
I would finally like to thank all our staff, volunteers and our funders for all you do for our great organisation. As a member-led organisation, a big thank you to all our members who contribute massively. Thanks to all board members who I find as my support and I appreciate all the work you all do. Let’s hope the year ahead is as rewarding for us all and we all flourish in the new normal.

## CEO'S **INTRODUCTION**
I write this as the new CEO of Leeds GATE, a role I began in January 2021. Our outgoing and founding CEO, Helen Jones, announced her intention to leave in September 2020 and the Executive Board worked hard to run an external recruitment process for the role. I was appointed in November 2020 and after a handover period, began the role in January 2021.
Having worked at Leeds GATE for 6 years alongside Helen, I would like to extend a huge thank you to her for her hard work and leadership over the last 18 years. Helen leaves us with a legacy and identity firmly rooted in our values, especially that Leeds GATE belongs to Gypsies and Travellers.
The year November 2019- November 2020 was full of challenges for everyone. Responding quickly to the global pandemic, we were able to transition to remote working, begin delivering services digitally and maintain our relationships and trust as a staff team and with our members.
Myself and Elizabeth are incredibly thankful for the hard work and dedication of our team. Our relationships with our members have flourished through the care and commitment shown to their wellbeing from the team. I am most proud of the trust that exists between us and our members.
It has been wonderful to be part of our expansion across West Yorkshire, with this year seeing the first funded advocacy posts for Bradford and Wakefield come into existence. In true Leeds GATE style, the collaboration between us and our members is what made this possible - working together to evidence need, represent people’s views and ensure projects are community-led.
I feel incredibly blessed to have such a committed and talented team around our table. As we start to move forward from the initial impacts of Covid-19, I am confident that our future is full of hope and change for our communities.

## TREASURER'S **REPORT**
2020 has been an unprecedented year across all organisations and sectors transforming our ways of working and living. With a global pandemic to contend with Leeds GATE has adapted positively to the ever-changing landscape and has continued to provide a responsive and high-quality service to its community members and stakeholders.
Despite the recent and ongoing challenges faced across the voluntary sector Leeds GATE has had a prosperous and positive year financially. Income (both restricted and unrestricted) has increased to £621,688, an increase of £125,551 on the previous financial year. Leeds GATEs diverse funding streams and strong relationships with established and recent funders has helped it to build up its reserves and safeguard its future security.
Expenditure in the past 12 months has remained fairly steady at £488,757, like many other voluntary organisations Leeds GATE has not been in a position to run project activities or advocacy services in the usual manner but has utilised digital technology to support its members and retain community engagement throughout a difficult period.
There is still some uncertainty for what the next 12 months will hold but the organisation has proved its resilience and continues to evolve whilst ~~remaining true to its values. On behalf of the Leeds GATE E~~ xecutive Board I would like to warmly thank the staff team, volunteers and funders for their dedication, perseverance and creativity over the past 12 months and beyond.

"I live on the roadside, travelling up and down and get my letters at Leeds GATE. I have a lot of health problems so have to attend doctors in Leeds. I wouldn’t be able to attend my appointments without Leeds GATE’s help as I can’t read and write myself. I am really thankful for the staff at Leeds GATE who read my letters to me and are confidential." **Leeds GATE Member, Travelling**

## LEEDS GATE **SERVICES TEAM**
Over the past year, we had to adapt and change our services to offer telephone and digital appointments. Our key appointment themes over the year were accommodation, mental and emotional health, consumer rights, welfare rights, criminal justice, education and physical health. We were especially happy to begin work to extend our delivery and outreach to Bradford and Wakefield, building new relationships to members and services.
Our service has been busier than usual and we have provided additional emotional support and practical advocacy for members who have found themselves homeless, without income or experiencing crisis during the pandemic. We have had a particular focus on safeguarding our members in the pandemic who have been experiencing thoughts of self-harm and suicidal ideation.
We have maintained our weekly outreach to roadside encampments throughout, supporting negotiation and offering advocacy.

## **HIGHLIGHTS**
“I was born in Southern Ireland but have lived here all my life. I was asked to prove settlement and thought I was going to lose everything, my home, my money and family. Leeds GATE came recommended to me by a friend when I was really worried and upset. I cannot thank the Advocate enough, she was wonderful and took a lot of stress away from me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I couldn’t believe how helpful they were. Hopefully, everything will be ok now and I won’t need them again but if I do, I know exactly where to go.” **Leeds GATE Member, Wakefield**
“They’ve helped me with trying to find a house, getting me shed done, home education for the children, all kinds of things.” **Leeds GATE Member, Wakefield**
13
## CHILDREN & YOUNG **PEOPLE**
The Youth Work team work with young people individually and in groups to help them gain confidence and reach their full potential. At the beginning of lockdown, our youth service moved swiftly to remote working. We put weekly telephone catch-ups in place, daily outreach using social media and set up a weekly challenge with all young people registered on our project. Some of our young people experienced heightened anxiety and stress due to the changes in their lives, and we provided a safe space for them. Our youth team have also worked intensively with young people and families
experiencing family breakdown, addiction, bereavement and domestic violence during this challenging time.

## In 2019-2020 Leeds GATE worked with **86 young people**
_“The reason I come to GATE is because of being bullied in school and all the racism in school. GATE is a place where you can feel safe like you're not gonna get bullied cause we’re all travellers and it’s good there because you get to learn everything you want and you're not forced to do anything you don’t want to do”_

COMMUNITY **ASSETS** We provide groups and activities for our members to come together. We help people to work together to make changes to their health, homes, education and inclusion. We run a community centre in Leeds and provide resources for our members.
## COMMUNITY **CENTRE**
We continue to be a community hub for West Yorkshire’s Gypsy and Traveller communities. Unfortunately, it was a quiet year at our building due to the pandemic but we took the opportunity to make some improvements to our space including fitting an outside tap for roadside families to use, installing a shower room for use by our families, new upstairs toilets, new flooring and blinds and a new door entry system. We have also begun transforming one end of our building into a youth space dedicated to our young members, who are our future.

## LEEDS GATE Our community development team changed their work **COMMUNITY** significantly to respond to the pandemic and **DEVELOPMENT** new ways of working, leading our response to Covid-19. Our team has done a fantastic job of keeping in touch with over 100 families weekly. We **m**
provided weekly updates on government guidance provided food parcels and hardship vouchers to those experiencing financial losses
due to the pandemic. We provided access to testing, information and support around Covid-19. We reduced isolation in our elderly members, supported those struggling with their mental

health, identified advocacy needs and signposted and referred to information and support. Most importantly, we strengthened our relationships as a community, working together to look after anyone struggling during this difficult time.
In addition to these regular phone calls the team made regular Covid-19 and health and wellbeing videos to share on social media. These videos were a vital means of sharing information with our wider community members who have low literacy.
“ Leeds GATE is a lovely welcoming place and the people that work there care about you, it’s not just a job to them” Leeds GATE Member

## DIGITAL **INCLUSION**
We have teamed up with 100% Digital Leeds to work together on providing digital training and support for our members. We also worked with them and a variety of our funders to secure:
**- 10 MiFi boxes** with laptops for health champion volunteers.
**- 30 laptops** for young people with existing Wi-Fi access to continue their learning and education
**- 20 tablets** for older people
**- 20 iPhones** with data for those without access to a smartphone or the internet

## COMMUNITY **VOICE**
We work with people to speak about their lives, ideas and concerns with confidence. We work to promote community leadership, collaboration, better media representation and challenge hate crime.
##
## LEEDS GATE **CAMPAIGNS**
We launched our ‘Don’t Be Beat’ mental health and suicide intervention report on World Suicide Prevention Day. The Don’t Be Beat project delivered a mental health advocacy service, provided SafeTalk and other training to communities, developed leadership and voice, embedded peer support and disseminated learning to other organisations and services locally.
The project explored what community led responses to high suicide rates look like and how professionals can learn from Gypsies and Travellers lived experience. The report got a lot of media attention including radio discussions and articles in newspapers and we are working with statutory partners to embed this work further.
“Don’t accept suicide and bad nerves as a Traveller way of life. Do not pass this acceptance down to your children and let this stay in generations.”

In February we held an open evening for allies to learn more about the situation for our roadside families and planned government changes to legislation that would criminalise trespass. Over 40 people attended and met with staff and Leeds GATE families. We all took away actions on how we could oppose this and stand with roadside families.
Our members led on articles in regional press about experiences of hate crime, Covid-19 impact on communities, free school meals and mental health.
##
At the end of year we began an exciting partnership with London Gypsies and Travellers called Media that Moves. The aim of this work is to deepen our understanding of why Gypsies and Travellers are so often misrepresented and transform the relationships and systems to ensure better representation.
23
## **Name: Bernard Cunningham**
Bernard joined us last year as a volunteer health champion and spent a lot of time sitting on our recruitment panel helping us interview new staff members. Bernard is passionate about his community having access to mental health support. Bernard's passion stems from his own lived experience of anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts. Over the years, Bernard has had to develop his own coping mechanisms during low episodes such as music, woodwork and exercise. Throughout the pandemic and lockdown last year, Bernard suffered from low mood and anxiety and wanted to reach out to other community members to tell them they are not alone. Bernard opened a mental health support page on Facebook and encouraged Gypsies and Travellers to support each other and speak up if they were suffering.
**We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge Bernard's bravery, values and drive to improve the mental health and well being of Gypsies and Travellers across West Yorkshire.**

25
Systems **Change** We don’t just want to be a sticking plaster. We want to create a fairer, richer society that values the contributions of Gypsies and Travellers. We want to go beyond reacting and be transformative in our work. We know this is ambitious, but it’s also the right thing to do. Here we report on strategic and policy work, co-production and service design, challenging exclusion and promoting our members skills and talents.
## HOMES
**Pandemic Accommodation for Travelling Families** During the pandemic we worked closely with our partners in health and the local authority to ensure our roadside members had access to clean water, washing facilities, toilets and could remain in one place. We conducted a health needs assessment in March and used this as the basis of provision. We were incredibly proud to see a compassionate and practical response in Leeds with roadside families being provided with stopping places, toilets, access to showers and water throughout the first 3-month lockdown. Well done team Leeds!
## **Regional Provision of Homes**
We contributed to an accommodation needs assessment in Bradford, ensuring our member's voices were heard, we look forward to working together on the location and design of new sites.
We finished a Site Design Guide with Leeds City Council which was a collaborative piece of work to understand how our members want any new provision to be designed - this community-led guide sets a standard for future homes. We are proud of our relationships and collaboration with local authorities in this space to get good

27
## HEALTH
We continued to support work to improve health outcomes for our members and other marginalised groups across West Yorkshire through participation in Health and Wellbeing Boards, our Solidarity Network and the Synergi Mental Health Collaborative - the Leeds Steering Group.
## **ROADS, BRIDGES & TUNNELS**
We launched our Roads, Bridges and Tunnels animated video as a thought-provoking training tool about improving health outcomes for people experiencing marginalisation and stigma.
## Scan to watch!

## LEEDS GATE **TRAINING**
**We trained staff across a range of statutory and community health and wellbeing services, reaching 162 professionals and students.**
_"I found it really insightful and helpful and I’ve had comments from other staff about how good they found it...the best event they’ve been to. The information about poor outcomes is really shocking and thought-provoking. We look forward to working with your service. "_

## Report of the Trustees
## for the Year Ended 30 November 2020
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, submit their report and independently examined financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2019.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 Jan 2015) as detailed in the accounting policies.
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **The charity's objectives**
To promote any charitable purpose for the benefit of the Gypsy and Traveller community across West Yorkshire (the area of benefit) by such charitable means as the trustees shall determine including the promotion of equality and diversity for the public benefit through activities that foster good community relations, advancement of education, relief of poverty and the preservation and protection of good health.
## **Risk Management**
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange will seek to identify and mitigate against risks that may be incurred through the operation of its business. These include:
Risks to the health and safety of its staff, Trustees, members, volunteers, partners and member of the public.
Financial risks and business continuity risks for the organisation.
Reputational risks for the organisation.
The Trustees regularly conduct their own review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Financial Review**
The Statement of Financial Activities shows net income for the year of £132,931 and funds at 30 November 2020 stood in total at £355,664, of which £238,747 were restricted.
2020 has been an unprecedented year across all organisations and sectors transforming our ways of working and living. With a global pandemic to contend with Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange has adapted positively to the ever-changing landscape and has continued to provide a responsive and high-quality service to its community members and stakeholders.
Despite the recent and ongoing challenges faced across the voluntary sector, Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange has had a prosperous and positive year financially.. Income (both restricted and unrestricted) has increased to £621,688, an increase of £125,551 on the previous year. Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange diverse funding stream and strong relationships with established and recent funders has helped the Charity to build up its reserves and safeguard its future security.

There is still some uncertainty for what the next 12 months will hold, but the Charity has proved its resilience and continues to evolve whilst remaining true to its values. On behalf of Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange I would like to warmly thank the staff team, volunteers and funders for their dedication, perseverance and creativity over the past 12 months and beyond.

## Report of the Trustees
## for the Year Ended 30 November 2020
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Reserves policy**
The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('the free reserves') should be sufficient to sustain the organisation for six months. The free reserves at 30 November 2020, before taking into account long term liabilities, are £116,917 and the Trustees were able to increase the reserves this year through generating earned income from delivering training.
The Trustees are considering ways in which additional unrestricted funds will be raised and intend to review the reserves policy each year.
## **Going concern**
The Trustees are confident that the actions of the last few years have meant that the Charity is in a strong position to grow and attract future funding and therefore consider it appropriate to prepare the Financial Statements on a going concern basis.
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
## **Charity constitution**

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange ('the Company')**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 November 2020.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's 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.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of 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 (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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 November 2020
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
## **Legal status**
Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange was incorporated in the United Kingdom as a company limited by guarantee (company no. 06386295). The entity is also a registered charity in England and Wales (charity no. 1123374). The principle and registered office address is shown on page 1 of the Report of the Trustees.
In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member
## **Income**
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when:
Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange is legally entitled to the income, it is probable the income will be received, and
the amount can be measured with reasonable accuracy.
The following specific policies apply to material categories of income:
(1) Grant income is deferred and included in creditors, if received in advance of meeting performance conditions or if the donor specifically states that the income must be spent in a future accounting period.
(2) Contractual income is recognised when the goods or services as specified by the contract are delivered by the charity. This income is treated as unrestricted in the accounts.
## **Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred and is allocated to the particular activity where the costs relate directly to that activity.
Support costs include the salary and overhead costs not directly related to the charitable activity, as well as governance costs, which are the costs associated with the governance arrangements that relate to the general running of the charity. Attributable VAT which cannot be recovered is included within expenditure.
## **Donated services and facilities**
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange this can be quantified. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Assets with a cost in excess of £500 intended to be of ongoing use to Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange in carrying out its activities are capitalised as fixed assets. Where an item is below £500 but is combined with other items as part of a project or to create an asset, these items will be capitalised if the collective value is greater than £500.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets using the reducing balance method, as follows:
Leasehold improvements Over the period of the lease Computer equipment 35% reducing balance Other office equipment 25% reducing balance/ over period of lease

Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange
Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 30 November 2020
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance
Fixed assets are subject to periodic review for impairment where there is an indication of a reduction in their carrying value. Any significant impairment is recognised in the statement of financial activity in the year in which it occurs.
## **Taxation**
Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange, as a registered charity, is entitled to taxation exemptions on all income and gains that align with its charitable purposes.
## **Finance and operating lease**
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership.
Assets acquired under finance leases are capitalised as fixed assets. Obligations relating to these agreements are included under creditors in the balance sheet. The difference between the capitalised costs and the total obligation under the leases represents the finance charges. Finance charges are recognised in the accounts at a constant rate over the lease term.
Expenditure applicable to operating leases is charged to the statement of financial activities on a straight-line basis, in the period to which the cost relates.
## **Pension costs**
Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange contributes to a defined contribution pension scheme on behalf of its employees. The amount charged in the statement of financial activity represents the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the current accounting period. Costs are allocated to activities in line with wages costs.
Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange 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.
## **Debtors, creditors and provisions**
Debtors with the exception of prepayments are those amounts that satisfy the income recognition policy on page 10, where funds have not been received at the year end. Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount. Prepayments are expenditure amounts paid in the current financial year, relating to costs for future accounting periods. These are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Creditors and provisions are recognised where Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange 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.
Debtors and creditors are reviewed at the year-end for evidence of required impairment to their settlement value.
## **Deferred income**
Deferred income consists of cash received by the charity, where the income recognition criteria has not been met because entitlement to the income does not exist at the balance sheet date. Deferred income is not recognised in the statement of financial activity until Leeds Gypsy and Traveller Exchange is entitled to it. Instead, deferred income is disclosed as a creditor in the balance sheet.
## **Going concern**
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
