## **For further information about our activities please visit our website at www.bestwood.org.uk** 

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP AS AN ORGANISATION** 

**The  Bestwood  Partnership  Conference** meets  at  least  once  a  year, between October and March. This is the Annual General Meeting for legal purposes, and is when elections take place and statutory reports submitted. This is also a key Partnership meeting for organisations associated with the Bestwood Partnership. Major decisions about the direction of the Partnership may be made. All residents of Bestwood Estate over 18 automatically have a right to membership and stand for election and take part in elections to **Bestwood  Partnership  Forum,** which  is  the  everyday  decision-making 

Page 2 



body of the Partnership, normally meets bi-monthly. The members are the Directors of the Company and nominated as the Trustees of the Charity. Numbers are made up through co-option. The Chair, Treasurer and Company Secretary and other honorary officers are elected by the Forum out of its number. 

**Sub-Committees and Partners’ meetings a** re convened as required by Bestwood Partnership Forum, these vary in number, worker and resident membership and representation from the City Council and other agencies. The  Forum  may  also,  from  time  to  time,  on  an  ad  hoc  basis,  set  up **additional working groups** . These do not have decision-making powers (unless expressly delegated by the Forum) but exist to oversee the various projects and activities associated with the Partnership.  The Forum is also represented on many other groups and organisations City-wide and in the local area. 

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP (Company Number 04882639)** 

## **DIRECTOR’S ANNUAL REPORT CONTINUED** 

**Workers of the Partnership** are primarily (and currently exclusively) those directly  employed,  and  project  volunteers,  but  also  have  been  at  times workers employed by other organisations who by agreement work with the Partnership,.  The lead officer is currently the Partnership Co-ordinator, who currently line manages the team, and to whom authority is delegated at the discretion of the Forum. 

## **There are a number of ways for people in the area to take part in the work of the Partnership:** 

Firstly, as a **resident** , being a **member of the Partnership** as a whole. This  gives  you  rights  to  elect  Forum  members  and  participate  in  major decisions at Conferences. 

Secondly,  as  a **Director** ,  by  standing  for  election  to  become  a **Forum Member** at a Conference (also a **Charity Trustee** )  This makes you a key decision-maker over our activity on a day-to-day basis.  An alternative is to be  a  member  co-opted  by  the  Forum  as  a  whole  because  of  particular expertise (especially from the public or private sector) or as an additional resident  member.   The  last  category  exists  in  order  to  balance  underrepresentation in membership of the Forum.  This may be geographical, or by gender, ethnic background or other consideration in line with our Equal Opportunities policy. 

Thirdly, as a **Working Group member** .  The sub-groups and working groups of the Forum as they arise are open to and welcome additional members, developing and guiding the projects which we run to the benefit of people on 

Page 3 



the Estate and surrounding area., suitable for people with specific areas of interest. 

Fourthly,  as  a **Volunteer** ,  contributing  your  time  to  particular  project activity.   This  is  hands-on,  and  practical,  and  is  central  to  the  effective running of the projects. **New volunteers are always needed.** 

Finally, as an **Employee** .  From time to time job opportunities arise within the  organisation.  Residents  of  the area  are  particularly  welcome  as applicants, and many have to date been successful in obtaining paid work within our projects or other projects associated with us. The majority of the Partnership’s employees have always been local residents, which is in line with the ethos of the organisation. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS  AND  PERFORMANCE:   Summary  of  key  project activity 2020-21.** 

The year 2019-20 has been hugely successful, despite considerable changes in  project  activity  and  responsibilities  of  staff.   The  changes  to  the Nottingham City ward structure meant adapting to a new scheme of things, which we have succeeded in doing without compromising our service to local citizens. A major new ingredient in the mix is our having gained a new responsibility as Area One Lead organisation for the City and the changes to the employability support projects had a major impact. 

## **1.  Area-Based Grant – Area One Lead.** 

This activity, funded by Nottingham City Council, covers Bestwood, Bulwell and  Bulwell  Forest  wards.  and  has  a  number  of  constituent  elements, partnership  development  and  co-ordination,  support  to  jobseekers  and provision of educational opportunities, activities for and outreach to young people, and groups operating in the area.  The Bestwood Partnership is Area Lead Organisation for this activity, and Bulwell Toy Library is a key partner working  alongside  us.   A  wide  number  of  partners  have delivered  this project with us in the first of a three-year project and a high percentage of the funding is used to support these partners in their project delivery. This project funding ties in closely with the Nottingham Works activity (Step Into Work). 

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP (Company Number 04882639)** 

## **DIRECTOR’S ANNUAL REPORT CONTINUED** 

## **2.  Area-Based Grant – Delivery in Area Two, Basford ward.** 

This activity, funded by Nottingham City Council through Castle Cavendish as  Area  Lead  Organisation,  is  the  Bestwood  Partnership's  delivery  of employability support in the Basford ward. 

**3.  Step into Work –Employability Support for younger citizens** . 

Page 4 



This project, funded by Nottingham City Council (Nottingham Works) with YEI and ESF funding, consists of a caseload of residents under 30 years of age who seek education and/or employment. 

## **4.  GetAhead – Employability support project.** 

This  project,  again  partly  funded  through  the  European  Social  Fund, operated alongside Step into Work and ended in December 2019. 

## **5.  Area-Based Grant – Area Two Lead.** 

This activity came to an end in March 2019, and is effectively replaced by projects 1 & 2. 

## **- 6.  Local Empowerment Core infrastructure funding.** 

This is our central, default fund to underpin our running costs, and it also covers additional community and group development work in Bestwood and surrounding  area  and  is  subsidised  through  our  income  from  the  local Business Units received as an ongoing grant from Nottingham City Council. We have continued to support One Vision Partnership management committee.  We continue to deliver I.T. and associated training at Southglade Access Centre, into which the Partnership invested commitment and funding from the outset as an Adult Education Centre. 

## **7.  Bestwood Estate Community Centre.** 

This fund includes the running costs and income to the Community Centre, which is our base but still continuing to operate as the main venue for Bestwood Estate. Nursery provision and group activities take place in the Centre, and so we continue a long history of provision in the local area. 

## **8.  Bulwell and Bulwell Forest Fund.** 

This fund will provide for activity in the Bulwell and Bulwell Forest wards through Vision Business Units income (granted by Nottingham City Council) which now operates as a distinct fund involving local people in the choice of activities  to  be  identified  for  support,  in  association  with  One  Vision Partnership. 

**Our staf team** for the whole financial year 2019-20 consisted of Donna Denning (Partnership Co-ordinator), Michelle Cooke (Community Engagement  &  Employment  Advisor),  Nicola  O’Connor  (Employment Advisor),  Charlie  Wayman  (Employment  Advisor)  and  Liz  Potterton (Office Cleaner). 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS** 

We will be asking Seagrave French LLP to examine our accounts next year, subject to approval at the next Bestwood Partnership Conference.

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP (Company Number 04882639)** 

## **DIRECTOR’S ANNUAL REPORT CONTINUED** 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

It is the Policy of the Bestwood Partnership to hold  in reserve funds to sustain  the  Partnership  and  its  activity  in  the  event  of  a  temporary  or permanent loss of external funding or sufficient income to perpetuate some or all of its projects. A designated reserve figure will be sustained where possible. Indicative designations for the reserve fund are as follows: 

- Payment of statutory redundancy and other obligatory employment costs. 

- - Discretionary redundancy and compensation payments.  It is noted that compensation  in  the  event  of  redundancy  over  and  above  statutory payments  is  discretionary  and  there  is  no  contractual  right  to  any additional payments over and above the statutory scheme. 

- Payment of costs for a three-month period, and additional payments under contract. 

- Staff costs for three months, prior to which redundancy notices may need to be issued. 

**Reserves fund indicative allocations:** £ £ 

Payment of statutory redundancy & obligatory employment costs. 20,000 

Payment of discretionary redundancy and compensation payments. 40,000 Minimum running costs (non-staffing) for a three-month period 20,000 Staff costs for a period of three months, as redeployment period 40,000 Payment of additional contractual payments 10,000 

## **Designated (minimum) reserve** 

## **130,000** 

**Use of reserves above this level** will be regarded as free reserves to be used at the Forum’s discretion, with priority to the following: 

- Staffing and running costs for core management and activity for one year. 

- - Additional  staffing  and  activity  as  the  fund  may  allow,  primarily  for forward  planning  in  individual  projects  and  delivery  of  key  activity identified by the Forum. 

## **Total (optimal) reserve 200,000** 

If reserves exceed the optimal reserve funds need to be put to immediate use for capital, staffing or activity purposes, to the current or following two budget years, as determined by the Forum. 

The Reserves Policy and its allocations are subject to annual review. Figures here as revised for 2019-20. 

## **PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT** 

Page 6 



The Trustees confirm that they complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Commission in exercising their powers or duties. 

## **FINANCIAL OVERVIEW** 

The directors are pleased with the financial situation for 2019-20. The opportunities taken last year to reorganize and consolidate with a view to immediate financial security and improve the prospects for longer term sustainability has paid off, and work in the previous year to optimise our funding strategy in advance of 2019-20 has ensured an extraordinarily successful outcome.  During the year the GetAhead project ended but the Step Into Work activity increased, and our new Area Lead role has had an excellent first year. Given the difficulties in the current year with the Covid crisis, which the staff team have nevertheless worked together with the Forum members to manage extremely well, and so many uncertainties concerning the  European, national and local funding position for future years, our operating surplus added to the existing reserve which has been built up will put us in a good position to carry on effectively in the current and following years. 

_**Chris Hooper**_ **Chair Date:** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** 

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP (Company Number 04882639)** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 as set out on pages 7 to 13. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The 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 an audit under company law and is eligible for independent  examination,  it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

Page 7 



## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by  the  Charity  Commission.   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 the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- 1 which  gives  me  reasonable  cause  to  believe  that,  in  any  material respect, the requirements: 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and 

   - to  prepare  accounts  which  accord  with  the  accounting  records, 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.

## **THE BESTWOOD PARTNERSHIP (Company Number 4882639)** 

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis of Preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A “Small Entities” of Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”, the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and the Statement of Recommended Practice: “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102). 

The charity has availed itself of Paragraph 4 (1) of Schedule 1 of the Small Companies and Groups (Accounts and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2008 and adapted the Companies Act formats to reflect the special nature of the charity’s activities. 

- a) All service level agreements and other income are accounted for gross  when receivable, as  long as they  are capable of financial measurement.  This includes gifts in kind, included at estimated valuation. 

- b) All expenditure is accounted for gross, and when incurred. 

- c) Resources expended includes the direct costs of the activities and depreciation on related assets.  Fixed assets are included at cost or valuation:  there are no material uncapitalised fixed assets. 

- d) Depreciation is  provided  to write off the cost or valuation, less estimated residual values, of all fixed assets, over their expected useful lives. It is calculated at the following rates: 

   - Fixtures & Fittings 33 % on cost 

- e) Designated funds are amounts which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for a specific, but not legally binding, purpose. 

- f) Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against resources expended as incurred. 

- g) The  company provides  a defined benefit pension scheme for its employees by way of participating in the Local Government Pension Scheme ( previously,  Nottinghamshire County Council ). However, as  this  is  a  multi-employer  scheme,  the  company  is  unable  to identify  its  share  of  the  underlying  assets  and  liabilities  in  the scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. The company has
