ONE COMMUNITY GLOUCESTER

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS continued……

Our greatest success was having 8 residents join the house and to see 4 of these leave to move onto independent living.

Another resident has recently joined us who was homeless. She is currently thriving in the environment and is volunteering at the local homeless shelter baking for the cafe that they run. She attends this once a week.

There were challenges this year, especially in providing resident care in response to crisis. We have been diligent in signposting to professional services and working with all residents in their individual care plans and goals.

We held a recruitment drive in One Church Gloucester and recruited 1 additional member to the volunteer care team and they have been leading a new Bible Study group weekly which is accessible to all residents, since November 2023. This now means we have a team of 4 trained mentors, 2 team members supporting socials and 1 volunteer delivering the Bible Study. We intend to make recruitment drives and training inductions a regular event.

We introduced more rigorous screening (through OC safeguarding and recruiting systems) and training, as volunteers are less likely to be known to us.

The administrator role for Finance has now left and this is currently being absorbed into the Housing Manager’s hours and role.

Monthly supervision and training nights were implemented for team, which includes opportunities to reflect on current residents, their care and needs. These remain a great opportunity to talk together, advise one another and be a support system to each other.

An experienced volunteer remains helping every Friday afternoon to support the long-term development of the housing project. This volunteer also supports with leading difficult meetings at the house with residents, interviews for future residents and monthly team meetings.

We currently have a Maintenance Team that comprise of male volunteers from One Church who help support the house with general issues. This is managed by the Housing Manager and has proven effective so far. This launched in January 2024.

Through 2023, we have housed a total of 8 residents and had 4 enquiries. As we now have an initial discussion call when we receive an enquiry, we are only receiving referrals when we have spaces and enquiries are more likely to be successful. The Housing Manager emails all contacts when spaces occur, around a month in advance, so we can offer a smoother transition.

Challenges

reliant on volunteers for much of the care we provide. The residents often present with complex and at times stressful issues during house meetings, both personally and through the house dynamics of living together, which needs time and support to resolve. They will also reach out for additional support from staff when they are struggling, such as with mental health, finances, or recovery issues. Residents are required to meet a high threshold of need to be eligible for ESA housing benefit (probation, recent

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS continued……

addiction, domestic abuse and/ or homelessness), yet we need residents to be able to live semiindependently as our support is delivered through several contact points in the week. At times, residents may present with additional needs beyond their initial referral and they then need more support than we can offer at present. This can be common as residents feel safer from their trauma, and so their mental or physical health may deteriorate as they begin to process what they went though. Finding more suitable accommodation for their level of need, when there is so little supported housing at this level, or moving on to independent living, can be difficult. Our referrers are now wider but remain limited while we have a small number of bed spaces. Due to our model and working hours, we also cannot transition new residents in quickly, so we are not always suitable. We tend to take a lot of referrals from the local rehab centre and at times this can be tricky.

We are currently talking to Green Pastures in the hope that we will be able to secure a second house. We have been looking at properties within the same area but this unfortunately has not progressed any further at this current time.

Looking forward

seeking guidance from external providers and Green Pastures, to further develop sustainability, while supporting staff and volunteer well-being. Continuing to recruit, train and look after our team will remain a focus. The management team are making plans for a second house with Green Pastures. This would possibly be for a Male Dry House to support others within our community. We still need to develop sustainability within the team and recruit additional volunteers before this is a viable option due to the high need for the mentors role. One Church now list volunteering with One Community Gloucester as one of the options they ask their church family to consider and so there is a constant recruitment drive.

In planning the activities, the Trustees have applied the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission.

Structure, Governance and Management

Responsibility for setting policy and for determining the parameters within which the charity should operate rests with the trustees/directors who meet regularly to monitor the activities of the charity.

Responsibility for the day to day operation of the charity has been delegated to a senior management team led by Tom Geatches and the Housing Manager.

New trustees are recruited and appointed by the existing trustees, by a majority vote.

Financial review

During the year income decreased by £6,353 to £37,707 and expenditure was nearly unchanged at £43,039 (2022: £43,205).

fell by £6,523 to £35,425. This reduction was mainly due to lower occupancy because we decided to reconfigure the house so that now it operates as a 3 bed (not 4 bed) house. The reconfiguration followed a review of the size of the house and the dynamic for residents. We worked with Green Pastures on this move and we agreed a reduction in the rent and fees we pay to them.

Expenditure decreased by £165 to £43,039. We spent less on rent and repairs but we spent more on staffing. We employed a new housing manager and, to facilitate the transition, for a short period of time we employed both the incoming and outgoing housing managers.

Page 5

ONE COMMUNITY GLOUCESTER

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS continued……

budgeted for 2023 (which reflected the changes we knew would be taking place in 2023). We are very grateful to the new housing manager who has done a fantastic job at finetuning processes and refining expenditure in order to make the housing project more financially viable going forward. The projections for 2024 are far healthier and, at the present time, we are hoping to report a small surplus for 2024. This should leave us well placed for the hoped for second house.

£22,301, all of which is unrestricted.

Going concern

The trustees, having reviewed all financial and other obligations, expect the charity to continue to operate as normal for the foreseeable future.

One Church remains fully supportive of the project and together we will continue to review on-going viability.

Reserves policy

The trustees/directors have determined that the charity should aim to hold cash of no less than £10,000, which equates to about 3 months of projected expenditure so that the charity could continue to operate should income and /or expenditure vary adversely. At the year end, the charity held cash of £22,301 and the charity is complying with its reserves policy.

Key risks and uncertainties

The charity is exposed to various risks - be they operational, financial or reputational. All areas of risk are reviewed at least annually by the trustees/directors in conjunction with staff and volunteers. Where possible, appropriate measures are taken to mitigate those risks.

Some of these risks have been mitigated by ensuring that appropriate insurance is in place. The charity also undertakes a careful review of all proposed contracts and evaluates any related risks.

Future Plans

The key strategies for the charity are as stated above. The Trustees/directors continue to review future strategic requirements.

The Trustees have considered the requirements of the Charities Act to ensure that the Charity meets its obligations to provide Public Benefit. The Trustees believe that the above report demonstrates the Charity’s commitment to the community in which it is based, its achievements during the year and its future plans. The Trustees are satisfied that the charity is fulfilling its obligations to provide Public Benefit.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Statutory Information

The charity is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2 Accounting Policies

The accounts have been prepared under the historic cost convention and in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.

The trustees (who are the charitable company's directors for the purposes of company law) have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

a) Income Income including investment income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. For the most part, income is generally recognised when it is received. Income is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.

Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from providing accommodation in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects.

The charity has relied significantly upon volunteers in carrying out its activities during the year. In accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.

The charity sometimes makes grants to other institutions and individuals to further its charitable objectives. Grants payable are recognised as constructive obligations arise, which is generally when the charity expresses a commitment to the recipient that can be measured reliably and then only to the extent that any conditions associated with the grant are outside of the control of the charity.

Governance costs, which are included in expenditure on charitable activities but are identified separately in the notes to the accounts, includes costs associated with the independent examination of the financial statements, compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and any other expenditure incurred on the strategic management of the charity.

f) Taxation

The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.

g) Cashflow statement The company has taken advantage of the exemption provided by the Charities SORP and has not prepared a Cash Flow Statement for the year.

h) Financial instruments The charity's financial assets and financial liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments, as defined by FRS102. Creditors and debtors are measured at their expected settlement value (normally the amount of cash that the charity expects to pay or receive).
