Over b"me, we established number of commercial contracts to provide Maintenan￿ vKKks for businesses along the rwerside as well as prowding ward grant fijnded gardening seNces to vulnerable residents in Walker and Walkergate. In 2012 we were awarded a mcdest contract vAth a large ￿la1 housing provider to provide works to some of their tenants which expanded further over the ￿)urSe of a 3 year period. The contract was renewed annualty by the regional management team on a rolling basis and at irs pe was worth over £150k to us each season {ApriFOctthrl. This contract was signlficant because tt enabled us lo generate suiplus fvnds to supFx)rt our tharitable activiknes, but also enabled us to reta some core staff during the leaner winter months in a secior that traditsonally has to lay staff off for several months. In the f(Alowng years. and as a direct resull of t)Jls to fundiro for S￿al housing providers. the regional team we had been liaising wih ¢fvandled and prC￿rement of seNices were increasing centralised. At the eThJ of 2019. we were athsed that they wt)uld w to tender for a 10 year contract peiicKI lo provide grounds maintenance in the region.

The tenderiThJ process was pLaced on hold when the pandemic started. however when li was launched rnid 2021 we were unsuccessful at the first stage. The senior management team met to di5uJss the impact of thi5 new5 and explore how the 2022 season might be shaped and delNered. An income generation ￿an was put in ptace, surplus vehicles and equipment sold and we pared back S￿nifiCanty on our seasonal recruitment. By summer 22 rt became apparent for a number of reasons that the enterprise would be Unsustainab￿ tseyond the of the delivery Sea￿￿. It was therefore with regret that the decision was taken to ￿se all en￿ronMental maintenance delivery wilh effect from December 22. resulting in the loss of 2 jobs.

Financial review The trustees have considered the result for the year and are a55es5ing the actions required to secure the charity in the fuiure. For Ihe year ended 30 September 2022, incC￿nIrvj res￿r￿ totalled £718,973 and resources expended totalled £680,050 resulb.ng in a surplus for the year of £38.923. or this surplus the restricted funds increased by £5,333 and unrestricted funds increased by £33,590. Policy on ￿SerVeS The calculation of free reserves is based on the definition included in the charity statement of recommended prath.ce ISORP), Ithich provides recommendat￿$ for accounting and reporting for charities. The trustees have examined the requirements of the charrtable company to hold free reserves - those reserves not invested in tangitde fixed assets, exduding long temi liabilrties, or designated for a particular purpose. This exercBe considered both the nomial requirements for working capital and the loss of income of a hyp)thetical bLrt reasonable reduction in the scale of operab'ons. Resulting from this, the trustees considered it wuld be appropriate to hold the equivalent of three months. payToII expendriure, equate to ￿dir￿j approximately £85.OTrJ to £100,000 in free reserves. At the year end, free reserves were in deficit by £47.824 {2021- £162.805), an in year improvement of £114,981. The improvement is la￿Y due to Ihe repayment of the loan wth Shepherd Offsl Group as well as receiwng a one-off dC￿allOn in the year. ￿lch has been used to repay the loan. The trustees wll continue to funders to Wt bjture surpluses in order to provide improved organisational sustainat41ty. The trustees ackn￿edge that as at 30 Septernber 2022 the charrty had rKJ free reserves. The trustees recognise the importance of serving the Charit￿s future by rebuilding unrestricted reserves and free reserves and this is a key priority. The need for the charitvs services continue to grow aTr therefore the demand on future reserves wll also be greater. hence the charty continues to require future funding and the support of rts funding partner5.
