Chair's report

‘Change is the building block for the future’

At the start of our new year we made a fresh start and new beginnings as we initiated the process to transform from a local Home-Start into an independent charity. This lays a foundation for our future needs, development and growth to ensure we can continue to provide a quality service for families, meeting parents needs and supporting children's development through home-visiting, groups and workshops. Responding to the needs of families in Suffolk we continue to operate as a family support charity under our new name of Families Together Suffolk with an increased freedom to develop and increase our sustainability. Supporting 952 families by the end of this year, we have achieved a great piece of work, a 'Magum opus,' a record number of families supported. We have focused on identified areas of need in the county including Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND), speech and language development, school readiness, mental health and perinatal mental health.

With our new branding we are in the process of developing new areas of work and change.

The trustees are very proud to be part of Families Together Suffolk, the work and change formation. This year we have welcomed new trustees onto the board who will help steer the direction of work with our senior management team, staff and volunteers.

Next year we will be our 40th year of supporting families in Suffolk and we will be celebrating the impact of the work and support to families through a variety of different events where we can reflect on and be proud of where we are today.

‘Rainbows take a long time forming but are beautiful and never forgotten’

At group sessions many parents are enabled and encouraged to have a ‘Chill, Chat and Play' with their children, volunteers and staff, which makes a welcoming and comfortable group.

Parents have valued the support and encouragement given by staff and volunteers through face to face home visiting and, when necessary, still providing open communication online.

What parents have said:

‘We have such good times. We will always remember you and how hard you work to make the group so welcoming,’

‘| cannot say how refreshing it was to get to talk to other mums.’ ‘It is a safe place to talk to other like-minded people without being judged’

‘It's invaluable for your mental health’

‘Lots of craft ideas to do at home'

‘Expanded our bond'

‘Someone who gets it when life so complicated, it's good to have someone who feels like they are on your side.’

‘| have fully utilised all the services available from Families Together Suffolk and would encourage others where possible to do so’.

Our dedicated team of 99 volunteers help with home-visiting, group support, retail and make up the board of trustees. Our committed retail staff and volunteers have enabled us to generate income through our shop and e-Bay hub. The e-Bay hub has moved to new and expanded premises. During the year we have also increased our team of family support staff to ensure we can meet the needs in the area.

It is hard to estimate how many dedicated hours volunteers give on a weekly or yearly basis but it far exceeds expectations. Staff and trustees too give their time and effort to the ultimate goal of seeing families succeed. At Families Together Suffolk we are very grateful for this and it is this dedication that remains at the heart of what we do. Thank you to all connected with Families Together Suffolk, you are a great team of dedicated people | am proud to work with.

Financial review

During 2021-22 we moved further out of the pandemic and to lessening restrictions however Covid-19 is still with us and is an ever-developing situation affecting all individuals and businesses in the country. Our tailored support services have been in demand and we have sought increased funding to meet this achieving an increase of 21% funding compared to the previous year from grant/ contract income and charity retail. We sought and recruited new staff in the year to provide additional support services in Suffolk.

The strategy to become a charity independent of the Home-Start network will produce a cost saving of nearly £12,000 next year and at least this in every subsequent year. Funders agreed to continue to work with us due to the high quality and impact of the services provided for beneficiaries. We have developed our new branding with the services of Brics CIC and this will be an investment for the coming years. Our own insurance and other services have been brokered to remain at the same level as before. It is therefore expected that this move will help improve the sustainability of our family support services to residents of Suffolk.

Another cost, as well as time, saving measure has been the move to mostly home-based working with a central office available to staff, volunteers and trustees when needed. During 2022-23 we will improve the facilities available at the office to promote a collaborative working environment and availability for meetings or training.

Our retail operation, combining our charity shop in Eye and our eBay Hub in Stowmarket, has been hugely successful in generating unrestricted income for the charity services through sales and from the Retail Gift Aid scheme provided by HMRC to receive additional donations on those items gift aided from donors who pay UK tax. Volunteers and staff have worked hard to capture the additional gift aid in both locations resulting in an additional £14,000 being available to claim in the last two years.

As we continue our long-term strategy to apply for funds that span multiple years we have grown the number of these during the year to ten. As a couple of these funds come to a successful close during this next year our dedicated funding team have submitted applications to funders who share the objectives of Families Together Suffolk to secure funding for current and new projects to meet the needs in our area. We work closely with our partners to develop and provide the services that are needed in the county.

In the coming year of 2022-23 we will celebrate reaching a milestone of 40 years working in Suffolk for which we plan to increase our profile in the area and join/ facilitate a number of events including our very own sponsored Toddler Trek. We will be utilising our new donation platforms of CAF Donate and Just Giving to raise funds towards our relaunched Pennies for Play campaign.

We are aware and are preparing for an increase in energy costs, a decrease in available services and hardship being created in our society by many factors. These will affect us, our funders and the people we support. We hope that through our groups and work in the community we can keep families connected to each other and draw on shared resources to meet the challenges ahead.

We will continue to seek hardship funds to directly pass onto families in need. We have received and distributed £42,150 since August 2020 with £18,650 of that being received this last year. Funds received have largely been through Suffolk Community Foundation Hardship Fund with other donations from 500 Suffolk Reasons and the Glasspool Charity.

We are grateful to our funders, fundraisers, partners and donors who have supported the ongoing work of Families Together Suffolk and helped families to meet challenges and achieve their goals. The impact of the funding received can makea lifelong effect in a child and parents' lives and we thank you for it.

Reserves policy

Our reserves policy is to maintain a minimum of three months and up to a maximum of six months running costs along with redundancies held in reserves. Currently this would amount to a minimum level of £154,277. We are pleased to report unrestricted reserves have been increased to almost reach the minimum level and currently stand at £152,996 (2021: £113,611). The trustees believe this amount to be prudent given the current economic climate and recent expansion of the charity. The trustees endeavour to further increase reserves to the minimum level during the course of the coming year.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The charity was incorporated on 15 August 2008. The trustees are responsible for making decision on all matters of general concern and importance, including deciding on how the funds are to be spent. All charity information and registered numbers can be found on the legal and administrative information page, along with the trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the period.

None of the trustees have a beneficial interest in the company, and all of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.

On the 10 May 2022 a special written resolution to change the name of the company from Home-Start Mid & West Suffolk to Families Together Suffolk was agreed and passed by Trustees with the Memorandum and Articles of Association updated on the 1 July 2022.

For the last 40 years, Home-Start Mid & West Suffolk have been affiliated with the national charity HomeStart UK, but after a great deal of discussion between the Trustees and the Management Team, the board decided to become independent of Home-Start UK, accordingly the name of the charity was updated as the Trustees felt ‘Families Together Suffolk’ better reflected the type of work undertaken and the area supported by the charity.

At Families Together Suffolk, our team of trustees, together with the support of staff and volunteers, are committed to our ongoing work to support parents and their children. We will continue to diversify to meet the needs of children and families in Suffolk now and in the future, whilst still providing the invaluable, reliable support that we are known for.

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

New trustees are appointed from a recruitment and selection process to enhance the skills and experience of the board as a whole. Once appointed, trustees are provided with all the information required to assist them in performing their role as trustees covering all aspects of the organisation.

Trustee induction and training

Following an induction by the charity, Families Together Suffolk provides trustees with training regarding the responsibilities of being a charity trustee. If trustees request or require further input then the charity would arrange for them to attend external training as appropriate. All trustees undertake safeguarding training.

Risk assessment

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. This work has identified the loss of personnel as a major risk which is addressed through succession planning.

Independent examiner reappointment

A resolution to appoint L Thurston FCCA of Lovewell Blake LLP as independent examiner will be proposed at the next relevant board meeting.

  1. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes. Designated funds, where necessary are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

Income

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: * income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.

Income (continued)

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Operating leases

Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Computer equipment, plant and_ - 33% straight line machinery Charity shop equipment - 33% straight line

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
