PRO:ACTION HERTFORDSHIRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Pro:Action Hertfordshire aims to act as a single point of contact for members and organisations working with and supporting children and young people between the ages of 11 and 19 years old, living in or near Hertfordshire. Members can access information, advice and guidance on a range of topics including legislation, compliance and sustainability.
The trustees extended services to children and young people by lowering the age supported to between the ages of 5 and 18 (plus 19- to 25-year-olds with learning difficulties and/or disabilities) in line with local services.
The trustees confirm that they have had due regard to the guidance on public benefit requirements as set out by the Charity Commission in January 2008 and amended in December 2011, when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
We have identified the following strategic aims:
-
For children and young people in the county we aim to:
-
raise the quality of provision so that they know they will receive the best possible support from whichever organisation or group they engage with.
-
ensure that all providers in the county are meeting the Hertfordshire Safeguarding Children's Partnership (HSCP) requirements.
-
increase our support to improve their wellbeing and resilience.
-
For those working in the sector we aim to:
-
increase the opportunities for partnership working and, in this way increase engagement and support to young people.
-
support the development of knowledge, skills and understanding through quality training.
-
For ourselves we aim to:
-
increase our reach and impact as an organisation.
-
improve the measurement of our performance and impact.
Significant activities
Pro:Action Hertfordshire supports, represents and champions the many organisations and individuals across Hertfordshire who work with children and young people. Our vision is for "Every young person in Hertfordshire to access safe, high-quality opportunities and provision to enhance their growth, development and well-being."
Pro:Action was formed from the merger of two organisations that supported the voluntary youth work sector. Our membership now includes organisations from the voluntary, private and public sectors and covers the full range of children and young people's interests; sports, dance, youth, arts, play, faith-based organisations, uniformed groups, statutory organisations and many more.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
STRATEGIC REPORT
Achievement and performance
2020-21 was a difficult and turbulent year for the charity due to the Covid-19 Pandemic and the charity embedding the organisational changes made last year. As in previous years, our financial sustainability remains a priority as we navigate our revised funding strategy. A revised grant of £50,000 has been secured from Hertfordshire County Council, YC Hertfordshire (Hertfordshire County Council Services for Young People) and remains secure at this time. We have been able to successfully generate income from training projects and small-scale localised fundraising activity, which has enabled us to generate a small surplus.
The charity is now functioning smoothly with 3 part-time staff, who work solely from home following the termination of our office lease during the pandemic. They remain committed, passionate and professional in continuing to deliver our membership services, in the most adverse circumstances, navigating the pandemic and lockdown restrictions throughout the year. Our staff were flexibly furloughed as the business need demanded and our Chief Operating Officer (COO) remained contactable throughout the height of the lockdown period. We received CJRS funding, to cover employee costs, which has supported the charity financially during this unprecedented period. Pro:Action continues to be held in high esteem across the county and the trustees are committed to seeing the organisation grow its impact and influence across the children and young people's sector in Hertfordshire. As a membership organisation, our focus is to support our member groups, and this has continued following the lockdown period, supporting over 65 organisations to re-open and operate within the government restrictions. This in turn has assisted over 12,000 young people and children across Hertfordshire. The following statistics highlight some of our key areas of activity and performance.
Achievement statistics
Pro:Action continues to be the only sector-specific, infrastructure support organisation in the county, with a clear and defined membership offer based around our three key areas of Quality, Safeguarding and Wellbeing. Over the past year the team provided information, advice and guidance to our member organisations. Due to the pandemic much of this support has been by telephone or ICT systems such as Zoom enabling us to still provide an individual response to need, which remains a significant feature of our membership offer and underlines the importance of the relationship with our member groups, their staff and volunteers.
The diversity of our membership can be defined in the following ways:
-
their main purpose or aims
-
their organisation type or sector within which they operate
-
the district or borough within which they operate
Communication & engagement
The most popular form of communication with our members has moved to Zoom, with a high level of traffic through email and telephone. Physical visits to settings have reduced significantly due to COVID-19, however we hope to re-introduce visits when guidance allows.
Our social media platforms of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Linked In have been crucial tools to share key information, highlight legislative updates and maintain a presence in the sector. The organisation has one designated point of contact via email or phone, limiting duplication.
Most of our project work continues to focus on safeguarding, compliance and wellbeing, which is supported through the delivery of quality training, and information, advice and guidance.
We have seen an increase in queries regarding policies and procedures and we believe this is as a result of our focus on compliance and safeguarding. Our team continues to work closely with members to highlight the importance and need for policies and procedures to be fit for purpose in all member settings, which has been brought into sharp focus as a result of the pandemic.
We have now moved completely to an online DBS applications process which is now running smoothly and has made the process considerably faster for most members.
Training
83 (2020 - 261) individuals working with children and young people undertook training with Pro:Action during this year, which has reduced due to the restrictions during lockdown. Safeguarding continues to be the most sought-after training, with a rise in the need for Mental Health & Wellbeing awareness for the sectors workforce.

PRO:ACTION HERTFORDSHIRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
We have expanded our membership training offer and are able to deliver most training through online learning methods, which worked well during the early part of 2021 for people who wanted to participate in training while furloughed.
We were also able to offer ELAS training courses which have been helpful for individuals as part of an induction process or as refresher training. These courses offered members the chance to learn at their own pace and online, therefore removing the need for face-to-face input.
Whilst online courses have been very useful during lockdown, we do recognise the need for face-to-face training to return when possible to support learning in difficult topics or areas that require oversite and demonstrated knowledge acquisition.
Our bespoke training packages continue to be rolled out and have enabled us to raise additional funds for the organisation. We continue to design and deliver bespoke content with key partners in order to expand our offer further.
Financial review
Principal funding sources
Pro:Action Hertfordshire would like to express its thanks to all its funders for their support, particularly YC Hertfordshire (Hertfordshire County Council Services for Young People) for its core funding to support, maintain and improve the infrastructure of Hertfordshire's Children and Young People's Voluntary and Community Sector.
Thanks also go to all the organisations and individual donors who contributed in the year, including:
-
The Sylvia Adams Charitable Trust
-
The David Wentworth Stanley Charitable Trust
-
TTS Anthony Hornby Charitable Trust
-
SGC Martial Arts Ltd
-
M & S Burton
Funds structure
The charity holds funds as either restricted or unrestricted. Restricted funds are restricted income funds used for specific restricted projects in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Any deficit in a restricted fund is met by a transfer from the unrestricted funds of the charity.
Amounts within unrestricted funds can be set aside for a particular project and shown as a separate designated fund. The designation has an administrative purpose only and does not legally restrict the trustee's discretion to apply the fund.
Reserves policy
The Trustees aim to hold unrestricted funds at a level equal to three months' budgeted expenditure in order to maintain financial stability for beneficiaries, funders, supporters and employees. Budgeted expenditure for 2021-22 is £85,020 and therefore the target is £21,255. The level of reserves available at 31 March 2021 is £44,826 (2020 £36,240), should the need arise, to fund:
-
fluctuations in income due to delayed receipt of statutory and contract payments
-
unplanned but necessary expenditure
Going concern
The trustees believe the charity's financial resources are sufficient to ensure that the charity will continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future, being at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements and have therefore prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The principal risk that faces the charity continues to be funding. We continue to be reliant on core funding from Hertfordshire County Council which can only be guaranteed on an annual basis. As a much smaller organisation with fewer employees and without the running costs of premises, our funding requirements are significantly reduced, though we do have a funding gap.
We now need to raise c£20,000 per annum to bridge the gap. Though onerous, this funding gap is reducing year on year. The trustees, together with the team, are committed to raising these funds by exploring a wide range of funding streams.
The Covid-19 pandemic is another source of uncertainty with lockdown and social distancing measures having resulted in many small voluntary organisations having to close due to lack of funding. The impact of these restrictions on the voluntary youth sector and our children and young people should not be underestimated.

The COO and the Chairman of the Trustees communicate regularly with each other and the other Trustees by telephone or email to reach decisions on important matters arising between trustee meetings.
Responsibility for the day-to-day management of Pro-Action Hertfordshire lies with the COO with powers and responsibilities approved by the trustees.

13. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES
The Process Business Ltd
A company under control of a trustee.
During the previous year the related party provided staff recruitment services at a below market value to help the charity recruit a new CEO, who has consequently left the charity, due to the restructuring process. The decision to use the related party's company was made at a trustee meeting where the related party was absent.
The total invoice for this work was £NIL (2020 £4,725, it was estimated using the related party saved the charity over 50% of the usual cost).
