TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) (CONTINUED)

Achievements and performance
This year has been one of consolidation and growih.
Our Service Manager, Tina Prince continues to both manage the Hope Centre and promote the charity within the
local area. To enable her to focus on the strategic management, we have recruited a strong team throughout the
year to run the centre operationally and to allow for future growth.
The Hope Centre provides seven day a week staffing, with reduced weekend cover having a focus on a social or
n activity. This has helped to provide consistency and continuity across the week. There is an on-call system for
out of hours urgent issues.
Of great significance this year, four women have been supported in moving on into independent living so fulfilling
the aim of the charity. The women were able to make full use of the services provided by the support team to make
the successful transition to independence in the community. This was achieved through individualised support
plans and activities tailored to each woman's requirements. Two regular volunteers supplement Ihe work that the
support team are doing. Activities are designed to reflect the skills that our residents will need to be successful
when they are living independently and include budgeting, cooking, healthy lifestyles, physical and mental health
wellbeing, application of benefits and signposting to other external setvices.
During this year our occupancy rate has increased to an average of 10.5 residents per month so meaning the Hope
Centre has been full for the majority of the time with a room only being vacant for a short space of time after one
resident leaves and the room is being prepared for the next resident.
We have been pleased to help fifteen women who benefited from time in our accommodation this year.
Our outcomes for residents continue to be very good and have numerous testimonies from agencies and residents
alike as to the positive impact we are having on women's lives.
Through persistent liaison with the Housing Support team, there has been a significant increase in the level of
housing benefil paid to the Hope Centre to reflect the ever-growing costs of running the Centre. This has helped to
improve the sustainability of the charity's finances and so support the women in our care.
In terms of future development, plans have been drawn up with architects and approved by the Trustees to provide
an additional five rooms to bring us up to our maximum 16 rooms as allowable under our lease. The bwn has been
demolished so providing room on the site.
Flnancial review
The accounts show that the charity had income of £197.773 12023.. £191,847) againsl expenditure of £200,389
(2023.. £192,111). Income in the previous financial period included a on&off legacy donation of just over £50,000.
There was also an increase in housing benefit income of just over £39,000 due to increased occupanGy in the
period. Of total income, donations, gifts, grants and fundraising represent 28 % 12023.. 44 % ), and housing support
and resident income 720/0 (2023.. 56 % l. Our operational cost increase was largely due to an increase li staff costs,
including costs to provide additional weekend cover.
Unrestricted funds at the end of the year are sufficient to fund the ongoing operations.
Rese￿eS policy
Our reserves policy has remained at £42,000 of unrestricted funds at any time to cover potential liabilities. This
figure represents approximately 3 months of forecast operational costs. We will continue to review and update our
reserves policy as our seNice and financial position evolve.

Major risks
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.
Plans for future perlods
Aims 2024125
The need for our services remains high (sadly) with referral volumes far outstripping our available rooms hence we
need to press fotward with the next stage in the development of our site so that we Gan help more women in need.
We have received a positive response to a Pre Planning Application for an additional five residents which provides
for more self-contained living accommodation to better prepare our residents in their move to independent living.
This will be a significant investment in our site for which we will need to build our reserves and undertake major
fvJnd-rai5ing initiatives to bring to fruition. These plans are the next stage of the development of our wonderful site in
Wilnesham.
Once the site development work is concluded some additional staffing will required to cover for 5 additional
residents.
We also plan to offer the opportunity to live at the Hope Centre to young women leaving the care system from 18
years old. We hope to reduce the risk to this group which can so often can find the sudden transition from care to
independent living very difficult. We can give them the opportunity to have supported accommodation as a 'haI￿aY
house" to full independence.
As we look to the new year, we wish to strengthen our cross-agency collaboration to further improve the long-term
outcomes for our residents. A focus on maximising occupancy in the year ahead is also key as thi5 provides a
strong basis for our future financial planning
