FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020
CHAIR'S INTRODUCTION
An exlraordinary yèar and a lanlaslic response by Irish Community C8re IICCI lo unforeseen and exceptional
challengesl This year has certainly beet) different. Ways ol working and delivering our ServI￿S have changed
and may never return lo former patterns of operalion. Throughout (he time since March, staff have shown
Ihernselves to be even more adaplable, flexible and creative. On behalf ol the Board I pay tribule to Ihem for
continuing to provide help and support to our clienls while developin9 new initialives.
We have been enorrnously helped by staff from the Embassy of Ireland and special Covid-19 funding from the
Irish Government's Emigrant Support Progiamme and the HM Govemmenl Coronavirus Support Fund in
partnership with the National Lottery Cornmunily Fund. CARA (meaning 'friend' in Irish). Irish Commuiiities
Togelher has bB8n established. With its CARA partners, Brian 8oru Club. Wigan,. GAA John Mitchels & Wolfe
Tones,. Liverpool Irish Cenlre., Mersèy Harpg,. Comhaltas Ceoltoiri Éireann." Institute of Irish Studies Univers5ty ol
Liverpool,. Irish community Care Manchester., Liverpool Irish Festival., Mersey Harps and Shenanigans., ICG h8S
helped coordinate over 70 volunteers to give assistance to people particularfy vulnerable during the pandemic.
The lirsl newsletler in June 2020 had a n7essage from the President ol Iieland, Michael D. Higgins, and we are
honoured that he made the first Contributi￿ lo Ihe publicalion. We thank Irish in Britain, loo, lor its crucial role
in connecting organisalions nationally lo share learning and offer mutual support during the pandemic.
We hope Ihat CARA is more than a short-lerm Tesponse to an emergency and can form the basis for cSoser
working 8nd community support. We continue lo be gratefLtI to our local organisats'ons lor taking on sponsorship
events for us and friends who continue to make donations. Their efforts conlribute valuable amounts ol
uiiieslricied income that allow us to make plans lor further support to our community.
Despit¢ the constraints itnposed by lockdown and responding lo an emergency, we have gone ahead with our
plans lo appoint a Community Engagement & Participation Lead and lo recruit lo three posts lo expand our
services in Cheshire. We have been actively involved Sn Moving lor Change, part ol our policy work In relation
lo Gypsies and Travellers.
Some of our intentions this year have had I￿8vItablY lo be reph85ed or delayed. The Diredions progfamme, to
help to give employment opportunities for Ih05e not in work, has been partlGularly affecled by Ihe ie8lri¢lion on
face lo face contact. We know that rising unemployment and diSpla￿ment from jobs wll make this service
èven more important in the coming months.
Our pS8nned relaunch of our brand and website has also been delayed but work is now almost complete. We
are grateful lo Imagist for help with this work. It is an outcome from the ftjrther development of the Irish
Northern Partnership, now called Frèa, so that ICC, ITish Community Care Manchesler and Leeds Irish Health &
Homes have related branding. evidence of the strength of the relationship.
Trustees continue to give their lull support lo ICC. Significant developments this year have been a Board
review exercise. progress with review arrangemerTrts for policies and staff terms and condilions of employment.
trustee training in safeguarding and experience of meetings via Zoom.
We welcomed Karina Kinsella as a new tfustee, bringiThJ valuable experience in public heallh and a(zdemic
research. There remain vacancies on the Board, notably for those wilh a background in law or accounting.
How the office oan be used in the future is now a very livè issue. Working from home lor our slafl has had lo be
Ihe norm, with both benefits and disadvantages. Hybrid working is likely lo be thè pattern lor the future which
gives an opportunity lo reassess the sp8C8 we have and whether it can offer new possibilities lor Service Users.
ICC has certainly risen to the challenge that ￿e pandemic has posed. We must now ensure that we CDntinue to
adapt and d¢velop, securing lunding in the tougher time ahead lo continue lo support our community.

leading Organ￿Sation in ensuring well informed, empowered and vibrant Irish tommunities in the North Wesl

Going concern
The vse of the going con￿r￿ basis of accounting is considered appropriate because there are no material
uncertainties or conditions that may cast signllicanl doubt about the ability of the charitable company to
continue as a going concern. Income is expected to remain consislenl and any decrease would be matched by
a decrease in 8S50aaled costs. The accounts include lestricted funds of £270k and deferred incotne of £136k

may face and believe that all the major risks have been identified. The Trustees have adopted a form21 risk
