The main activities of Kilburn Older Voices Exchange (KOVE) in 2020-21 were restricted by the lockdown regulations which were in force for most of this period. The charity still did the following: a) Organising Steering Group meetings over the internet to enable the charity to keep functioning b) Provide older people with information on issues such as health, transport and local facilities by email bulletins for members who use email, and monthly postal bulletins for members not on email. c) In the summer months, organising local walks to provide both exercise and a social activity to overcome isolation. **Summary of the main** d)  Contact members regularly by telephone to offer support and **activities undertaken for the** information. This service was particularly aimed at members who live **public benefit in relation to** alone and therefore were at greater risk of social isolation. **these objects (include within** e) To work in partnership with other organisations in the local area and in **this section the statutory** London to promote the charity’s objectives, in particular Ageing Better in **declaration that trustees have** Camden, Age UK Camden and the National Pensioners Convention. **had regard to the guidance** f) To publicise activities and facilities for older people. We have done this **issued by the Charity** through developing our website to make it more accessible and more up **Commission on public** to date. We also publicise activities and facilities through our postal **benefit)** bulletins. g) To campaign for better street furniture, in particular benches, for older people; to campaign for better public transport facilities and road crossing times, and to campaign for better public toilet facilities. h) To provide support for members by publishing a booklet, Lockdown Pie, with stories, poems, reflections and drawings by members about the lockdown period. The trustees are aware of the guidance from the Charity Commission on public benefit. 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

We regularly involve volunteers in our work. In this year, volunteers made an important contribution in supporting the local walks we ran when allowed by the lockdown regulations. The volunteers who run our Stroke Freedom Support Group played an important role in contacting those members. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

Volunteers are also involved in the meetings of our Steering Group, and meetings organised by Ageing Better in Camden and Age UK Camden. 

Volunteers also played an important role in our publication, Lockdown Pie, in writing and producing material for it.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

## **Contact with members during lockdown** 

During the lockdown period we kept in regular contact with members by telephone. We concentrated on people who lived alone, or we thought could be socially isolated. Members found these phone calls very valuable. Some wanted advice about particular support needs or services, and we referred them to the appropriate local organisation. Others just wanted a social chat on the phone. Just under 100 members were contacted by phone; 68 were phoned more than once and around 40 were contacted regularly. 

We also kept in contact with members through weekly Email Bulletins, promoting events and activities that could be done online, as well as local services. Between 120 and 130 members received the Email bulletin. 

For members not on the internet, we issued a monthly bulletin by post, mainly focussing on local services, in particular library opening hours as the libraries are an important resource for our members. Around 170 members received the postal bulletin. 

## **Lockdown Pie** 

We decided not to issue an Annual Review, but instead asked members to contribute written material or artwork to a publication we called ‘Lockdown Pie’. Contributions included stories, poetry, and reflections on life under lockdown. We had the publication printed in book format and sent a copy to every member and to organisations that we work with. It was very well received. Our thanks to the Mercers Company for their support for this project. 

## **Walks programme** 

When the lockdown regulations allowed, we did 14 local walks, mainly of small groups. While participation was limited, members who did attend found the walks beneficial. 

## **Website** 

We have worked to develop our website, making it easier to use, and improved the content so that it covers all of our activities and campaigns and is updated regularly.  It also covers other local and national issues relevant to our members. 

## **Governance** 

We held seven Trustees and Steering Group meetings over the internet. While this was not ideal, it did mean that members could meet and give the organisation some direction. We decided not to hold an AGM, so the accounts and annual report were approved by the trustees. An AGM is being organised for 30 September 2021. 

Sadly, Claude James, a longstanding KOVE member and local community activist, died in January 2021. In May 2021, our chair, Ags Irwin, died after a long illness. She had played an important role in KOVE and the local community and is much missed. 

Also in the same month, Myra Newman, who was a member of the Steering Group, also passed away. She was responsible for much of the

work we have done in conjunction with Belsize Community Library. In July 2021, Nancy Brabazon, a founding member of KOVE, passed away at the age of 100. 

## **Other activities** 

We did hold three ‘events’ over the internet or by telephone conference calls. We also had a couple of informal outdoor forums in the summer. 

## **Campaigning work** 

We continued our campaigning work on the provision of benches, in particular on Kilburn High Road. The benches we have funding for there have been delayed because of a improvement programme for Kilburn High Road. We have been involved in ongoing discussion with Council officers about this. 

We also continued our campaign on the provision of public toilets, and held a small ‘event’ at a closed public toilet off Kilburn High Road to help publicise this issue. We also have funding to make a short film about public toilet provision. 

We continued to work with the Webheath Tenants & Residents Association, supporting their work to improve their estate.

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

**Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** 

The charity aims to have designated reserves of £500 to cover costs in case the charity had to wind up. 

## **Details of any funds materially** 

**in deficit** 

## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. 

The charity’s principal source of funding was from Ageing Better in Camden, which is part of a national project funded by the National Lottery. 

We also received funding from the Mercers Company to support our activities. Some of this was used to purchase equipment so that the charity can use its own resources to produce printed material. 

- We also receive some funding from local organisations to fund specific activities. 

The funding has been used for older people to organise activities involving older people, in particular to overcome social isolation, and to campaign on issues facing local people in our area.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

I have examined the accounts of the organisation for the period ended 31[st] March 2021, which are set out on pages 4 to 9. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

As the trustees of the organisation, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) Charities Act does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7) (b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my notice. 

## **BASIS OF EXAMINER’S REPORT** 

This report is in respect of examination carried out in accordance with The General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes a 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 constitute an audit. 

## **EXAMINER’S STATEMENT** 

Based on my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 41 of the Act, or that the accounts presented do not accord with those records or comply with the accounting requirements of the Act. No matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.

I have examined the accounts of the organisation for the period ended 31[st] March 2021, which are set out on pages 4 to 9. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

As the trustees of the organisation, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) Charities Act does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7) (b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my notice. 

## **BASIS OF EXAMINER’S REPORT** 

This report is in respect of examination carried out in accordance with The General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes a 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 constitute an audit. 

## **EXAMINER’S STATEMENT** 

Based on my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 41 of the Act, or that the accounts presented do not accord with those records or comply with the accounting requirements of the Act. No matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.
