## Trustees' report
## **Achievements, performance and demonstration of public benefit**
The last year has continued to be a challenging time for carers living in Halton as the reality of caring for a loved one during a pandemic was felt by many. As restrictions were eased in the summer of 2021 carers faced the dilemma of negotiating the new normal and working out how to re-enter the world, a personal decision that was different for everyone.
At Halton Carers Centre we strived to be a constant presence for both young and adult carers during the turbulent times. We re-opened our doors to carers in July 21, making the use of our outdoor space and focusing on outdoor activities where possible. For carers who made the decision to limit contact with others we continued to offer our services online, allowing carers to move at their own pace and in their own time. Putting individual carers at the heart of all we do has always been one of our core values, and this year was the time to show how we live out this value in practice.
As ever when we reflect over the previous year we need to recognise the hard work of our staff and volunteers who work tirelessly for carers in Halton. Throughout the past few years our team have worked tremendously hard in difficult, ever changing circumstances and their dedication deserves to be recognised. This year we said goodbye to Garry and Julie in our young carers and adult carers teams but welcomed Ashley and Caroline. We wish Garry and Julie every success in their future.
In the last year we spent time reviewing our aims and objectives with carers, our staff team and board developing our theory of change. Our key objectives are to enhance well-being, increase skills and build knowledge in both young and adult carers to enable them to achieve their own potential whilst also fulfilling their caring role to the best of their abilities. This is central to everything we do and remains the focus of our work.
A massive thanks needs to go to our funders and stakeholders who partner with us to make a difference to carers living in Halton including The Henry Smith Foundation, The Trusthouse Charitable Foundation, the National Lotteries Community Fund, and the Community Foundation for Merseyside. Without their support we would not be able to have the reach and successes that we currently enjoy. We must also recognise Halton Borough Council and Halton NHS CCG who partner with us, realising that supporting carers is vital in ensuring a healthy society.
The year ahead will continue to have it's challenges as we navigate a post-covid world in partnership with carers, however we continue to work hard to ensure no carer in Halton is ever left behind.
Any report can only be a snapshot of achievements - we hope you enjoy our highlights!
## **What we do**
We deliver a range of range of activities and services for both young and adult carers. In the last year we have had a large focus on fun! Many carers had experienced extended lockdown with additional shielding and needed to have the opportunity to laugh and to experience life again. From pizza parties to walks to family fun days to pantos we were there to facilitate the fun and to be a constant presence alongside our carers.
Alongside our many trips and activities we have continued to deliver peer support groups, training, information and advice drop-ins, holistic therapy appointments, advocacy and reviews and action plans to ensure carers needs are always being met. We have chatted, cooked, created, learnt, laughed and supported each other as we encourage carers along their journey.

## Halton Carers Centre Limited
## Trustees' report continued
As we reopened Halton Carers Centre buildings in Summer 2021 we made the decision to focus on outdoors activities as much as possible to make sure carers felt safe. It was also important to give carers opportunity to laugh with each other again, as having fun with someone who understands what you are going through is key to enhancing well-being.
Key activities were our walk and talk group, young carers canoeing and kayaking trips, outdoor craft classes, family fun days in the park, online baking and cookery, family forest school, wreath making, Christmas pantos and meals out.
In August 2021 we partnered with local CIC Camp Curiosity to offer forest school sessions to young carers and their families. This was an ideal opportunity for the whole family to come together and enjoy activities that may usually not be available to them. Having fun together is key in creating strong bonds and a cohesive family unit. Feedback from these sessions told us that simply being outside in nature was just what families needed after the long periods of isolation during the pandemic. One young carer told us "Today was so much fun, it was like one big adventure, I've never had chance to do anything like this before, we had loads of laughs" while a parent said "This was something new for us to try and we absolutely loved it" 100% of those who participated said being involved in the session helped reduce isolation.
## **Support and Training Groups**
Whilst it was important that we maintained a focus on fun and outdoor activities this year, this does not mean our training and support groups were neglected. Throughout the year we continued to offer our general and bespoke carers support groups.
Our dementia carers groups and ADHD / ASD parent carers groups were particularly needed this year after the isolation of the pandemic.
As of 2018 the population of Halton, is older on average than the rest of England. A greater proportion of the population is over age 50 with a lower proportion of the population aged between 15-44. This means that there is a greater likelihood of people living in Halton having direct experience of dementia. Our services for people caring for a loved one with dementia included peer support groups where people can simply talk and build relationships with other people in similar circumstances to themselves, training where carers can understand how dementia affects the brain and social activities.
People caring for a loved one with dementia can struggle to have a break, often their loved one is unable to be left alone and is with them constantly. We therefore designed our services to enable carers to bring their loved one with them if needed. In this time the carers card we created became vital. When carers had medical appointments of their own the card told professionals that their loved one had dementia and needed to attend the appointment with them.
The effects of the pandemic were also felt by parent carers whose child has ADHD or ASD. Every session of our ADHD coffee morning was well attended with parents acting as peer mentors for those newly referred. Our Autism Spectrum Disorder Awareness sessions were also incredibly well received. Parents could join us online in a session facilitated by a medical expert who was able to answer questions and ensure parents had an insight into how their child saw the world. For both sets of parents our summer family fun days in the park gave an opportunity for them to play games with their children in an understanding and safe environment. The simple activity of games and a picnic encouraged families to mix with each other and form relationships that lasted outside of the facilitated sessions.
Halton Carers Centre continue to administer the carer break fund on behalf of NHS Halton CCG. Carers registered with the centre are able to apply to the fund to enable them to engage in activities that give them respite. This may be a weekend away, music lessons or even a trip to the theatre. Carers are trained as volunteers to sit on the panel and make fund decisions, ensuring fairness and transparency. In 2021/22 we gave away £141,800 to carers for respite activities with a total of 990 carers benefiting from the fund

## **Financial review**
The charity reports a deficit of (£69,109) (surplus of £131,786 ~ 2021)
## **Reserves Policy**
The board have reviewed the charity’s needs for reserves in line with the guidance issued by the Charity Commission, and have a reserves policy in place which is reviewed annually in accordance with financial audit processes. The board believe that in addition to known commitments there is a need to hold at least 5 months unrestricted running costs in free reserve given the charity’s sources of funding are not certain. The policy statement provides that the trustees will produce annually a detailed analysis of reserves, both restricted and unrestricted based on the audited accounts, indicating the boards’ intentions with regard to the use of those reserves. For the year ended 31 March 2022 this analysis revealed that the total reserves of £153,700 represents 3.4 months running costs
The board continues to aim to achieve a balanced budget that will increase our current level of unrestricted reserves. This will provide a safety net that will allow us to maintain basic services through this period when funding opportunities are more limited. We will however, continue to adjust activities and costs in line with the new financial climate.

## **Risk Management**
The Board regularly reviews the operational and financial risks facing the organisation. Of the risks identified it is only the issue of funding that continues to be a concern and the Board has focused on this issue. The challenge remains, but there are a number of factors that are enabling us to be positive. Our fundraising plans set out our approach for generating income and is already beginning to show some dividends.
The Board believes that the primary risks it faces are related to the funding environment and the coming few years are likely to be challenging.
## Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom accounting standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including its income or expenditure, of the charity for the year.
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
observe the the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
make reasonable judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue as a going concern;
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of 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.

Independent Examiner's report to the trustees of Halton Carers Centre Limited
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 set out on pages 8 to 17
## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and examiner**
The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
q examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
q to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
q state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of Independent examiner's statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
q to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
q to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **2.8 Taxation**
The charity is not liable to income tax or capital gains tax on its charitable activities.

During the year no trustees claimed expenses (2021: 0) for attending charity business.
Owing to the nature of the charity's activities and the composition of the board of trustees (being drawn from local statutory and voluntary organisation), it is inevitable that transactions will take place with organisations in which a trustee may have an interest. All transactions in which a trustee may have an interest are conducted at arm's length and in accordance with the charity's financial regulations and expenditure procedures. No transactions were indentified which should be disclosed under FRS 102.
