**The Peaceful Place Ltd** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023** 

The Trustees present their report along with financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 10 and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 2005. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims** 

Objectives, Aims, Governance, and Management 

The Peaceful Place Limited was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 10 November 2005. It was established under a Memorandum of Association which sets out the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. The Memorandum and Articles were amended by special resolution on 20 Nov. 2008. The company was granted charitable status by the Charity Commission on 5th December 2008 and became active on 1st April 2009. 

The Charity's objective is to empower individuals living with dementia and reduce their isolation through the provision of peer support, cognitive stimulation, and physical activities. 

The Charity uniquely provides activities and support to individuals diagnosed with early onset dementia at working age/young onset dementia. Post covid lockdowns we were faced with an increasing unmet need of those in early-stage dementia, who are older and preferring a service approach that provides physical activities in the community to live well. We responded to this need, as an interim intervention, but the need remains, and we are continuing to engage this group. 

Our aim is to slow down the progression of dementia through cognitive stimulation, physical activities, and therapeutic support. We recognise our members as experts by experience, engaging them in activities that enhance abilities, skills and talents and seek opportunities of partnerships with external services to provide a variety of activities leading to opportunities of choice. 

Our referrals are primarily through Adult Social Care from Southend, Thurrock, and Essex with other referrals from Dementia Crisis teams plus private referrals. We encourage and facilitate opportunities of peer support, creating strong supportive friendships thus reducing isolation and loneliness and creating a more active community of individuals living well with a diagnosis of dementia. 

The management of the Charity is delegated to the Chief Executive Officer, Charlotte Curran who reports to the Board of Trustees at quarterly meetings. The Board further dedicates time and expertise to Finance and Fundraising Sub-Committee meetings who also meet quarterly. 

## **Significant activities** 

We recognise the strength in partnership approach to meeting the various needs and desires of our members. 

Partnerships: Peaceful Place values the various partnerships in delivering meaningful and purposeful activities. We  have weekly sessions with Suffolk Music Therapy, Therapy in Musical Expression (T.I.M.E), Monica Samuels Coach, Occupational Therapist and Yoga Teacher. Our external community partners are Sports for Confidence, who provide sensory swimming, strength and balance, Love to Move, multi sports, Boccia, and table tennis at our local leisure centres daily. - Hashtag United FC delivering weekly training to our Peaceful United walking football team. We extend a thank you to our partner agencies and extend this to The Barstable Social club offering free facilities to deliver weekly sporting activities and yoga sessions. 

Family support: Assistance is given to families where needed in supporting individuals living with dementia. We  support them with engagement of adult social care and dementia crisis teams. We have peer support groups running.

**The Peaceful Place Ltd** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees and CEO continuously consider their responsibilities for ensuring that the charity is a benefit to the public and are satisfied they meet this requirement. We listen to our members and adapt activities to ensure they feel included in community activities and not isolated. We provide opportunities for volunteering and student placement. 

Charity Shop: The Charity Shop continues to be a valuable support with consistent income for the running and maintenance of Peaceful Place services. The Board continue in their admiration of, and gratitude for, the dedication of volunteers both within the Charity Shop and Peaceful Place service. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

- Obtained Thrive funding from Essex Community Foundation to purchase and implement a database with the ambition to reduce the amount of paper used within the service. 

- Intergenerational Project with Kool carers, facilitated by Sinfonia Viva orchestra led to a performance on stage at our local park. 

- Our family sport day was an opportunity for family carers to observe our members playing walking football. 

- We are keen to continue our role as influencers of change by providing student placements to a total of 10 students, social workers x3 and Mental health nurses x 4 and Health and social care students x 3, all successfully completing their placement at Peaceful Place. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Principal funding sources: The primary funding source comes from Adult Social Care budgets for spot purchased placements as well as private paying customers. Project costs are funded through donations, charitable trust and income from the Charity shop. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees recognise the need to keep free reserves to protect the Charity in case of loss of income and to support new opportunities as they arise. The Trustees have considered their reserves policy and have agreed maintaining free reserves (being general funds excluding those tied up in fixed assets or designated by the trustees) at six-months operating costs to ensure the Charity remains stable and viable for the future. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

The Charity is committed to continuing and expanding its offerings for the benefit of those living with early onset and dementia, and their family carers, by further developing relationships with Inhouse and Community Partners. 

In the longer term, the Charity would like to expand into a second day activities centre and to open a second Charity Shop. The Trustees, and CEO, are working on a strategy to achieve this within the next 5 years. 

Peaceful Place is currently unable to meet the demand for places at the Day Centre for those with Young Onset Dementia/Early diagnosis of Dementia with referrals coming from a wider catchment area that is inaccessible geographically from our current service. Trustees have allocated £200,000 from reserves, as a contribution to the purchase of the second premises to replicate the service offered by Peaceful Place in Basildon. This premises will be in another part of Essex to expand the geographical catchment to parts of Essex not currently serviced. Trustees are actively searching for an appropriate premises 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

The Trustees have reviewed the risk associated with Coronavirus or similar unexpected closures after the balance sheet date and have designated an emergency fund of £100,000 for use should the charity suffer further financial disruption due to government restrictions or instances of service user or staff illness or isolation.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Peaceful Place Ltd** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Peaceful Place Ltd ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

## **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 member of the 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.
