Trustees’ Annual Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The trustees, who also serve as directors of the charity under the Companies Act 2006, present their annual report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have prepared the accounts in line with the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), effective from 1 January 2019.

Objectives and Activities

The Butterfield Centre’s primary aim is to enhance community wellbeing by offering essential services to all, with a particular emphasis on reducing social isolation and minimising food waste.

We are committed to supporting our community through a wide range of vital services designed to address social isolation, food insecurity, and to improve the overall quality of life for residents.

Reduce Isolation and Provide Emotional Support

Our affordable Meals on Wheels service ensures that individuals, especially the elderly, receive nutritious meals in their own homes. Volunteers not only deliver food but also offer welfare checks and a friendly face. Additional support is provided both in person and over the phone, helping to reduce loneliness and encourage social connection.

Reduce Food Waste

Our Community Pantry is open to all and actively combats food waste by redistributing surplus food within the local area. In return for a small donation, families can access fresh, healthy food, helping to alleviate economic insecurity for many.

Provide a Welcoming Space for Support

We offer a safe and welcoming environment for community groups, encouraging sharing and support. All activities are conducted with confidentiality and impartiality at their core.

Supporting Local Organisations

Affordable room hire is made available to local groups to promote engagement and growth of community initiatives.

Our Vision for an Inclusive Community

The Butterfield Centre strives to create an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone can access the resources they need. Our goal is to ensure a lasting positive impact so that no one feels alone or without support.

All services are delivered in accordance with guidance issued by the Charity Commission.

Achievement and Performance

The charity has maintained a welcoming environment for clients and, in partnership with other organisations in the town, operated a 'Warm Hub' from November through to March 2025. This initiative provided friendship and refreshments at no cost to clients, helping local resident manage rising energy bills and the general cost of living.

Over the past year, the charity successfully brought the local Food Bank under its umbrella, thereby facilitating the distribution of fresh produce from the Community Pantry to Food Bank users.

The ongoing operation of the Meals on Wheels service relies on volunteers, who contributed 900 hours over the year. The Community Pantry has expanded its opening days from three to six days per week, with volunteers dedicating many hours annually to its success. Our main meeting room is used by the friendship group weekly

Financial Review

At present, all funds are held at the bank. The charity also invests with the Charitable Organisations Investment Fund (COIF) to provide winding-up funds should they ever be needed.

Baseline funding for the charity is secured by charging a minimal fee or a donation for services, which support the Centre’s maintenance, staff costs, utilities, statutory compliance, and, where possible, improvements to facilities and equipment as well as staff and volunteer development.

Future Plans

Deliver talks to community groups in Bourne and surrounding area to raise awareness of the aims of the Butterfield centre and encourage engagement with the centre and its work. Support for the local toy appeal in collaboration with “Neighbourly” and Lidl, helping to bring joy to children in the community.

Refurbishment of old bathroom to create a more easily accessible new kitchen for use by the groups, volunteers and staff

Refurbish and decorate an outdated space to create a meeting room with the opportunity for rental opportunity to increase income

Secure further funding for the Community Pantry to extend opening hours plus source other funding streams to improve service facilities at the Butterfield Centre.

Regular and Focussed volunteer recruitment drives, initially for meals on wheels.

Structure, Governance and Management.

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and was incorporated on 14[th] March 2008. Its governing document is its Memorandum and Articles of Association and then registered with the Charity Commission.

Trustees

The trustees of the charity have been carefully recruited to ensure a comprehensive and balanced range of skills, all united by a shared vision for the Butterfield Centre. The appointment of new trustees, as well as staff, is agreed at Trustee and Management meetings. In 2025, all trustees were newly recruited and are currently engaged in a thorough review of the charity's financial, policy, and management matters, to ensure these accurately reflect and support the ongoing work of the organisation.

The trustees have no beneficial interest in the company. They give their time voluntarily and do not receive any remuneration or other benefits for their service.
