DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
The Directors consider that Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, for this reason, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.
Objectives and Activities
The objective of the company is to operate as a catalyst for community transformation by facilitating improvements in the lives of individuals and growth in community activity and cohesion. This will be achieved by identify and understanding the needs and issues within the community and by applying the Oasis Ethos to everything. The Oasis Ethos is:
-
A passion to include everyone
-
A desire to treat everyone equally, respecting differences
-
A commitment to healthy and open relationships
-
A deep sense of hope that things can change and be transformed
-
A sense of perseverance to keep going for the long haul
Oasis Hubs will typically include activities in education, youth and children’s work, community empowerment, housing, advice and support, personal and spiritual development and health and wellbeing.
Achievements and performance in 2022/23
The Hub is the name given for the fullest expression of Oasis’ work, particularly focused in East Southampton (Sholing, Woolston. Weston, Thornhill, Merry Oak, Harefield and Itchen) although the work impacts across the whole city. The work of the Hub incorporates the educational and other work done by, through and in the Academies, as well as the various projects which are run alongside them. The hub has contributed positively to the life of the local community in several ways.
A summary of key projects
Oasis Community Pantry
Our community pantry has been running for 18 months and now has over 200 members and we feed on average 100 families per week.
Our Pantry Lead has overseen the extension of our hours & recent move to the Highpoint centre, which is a more central location for the pantry & has allowed us to support more of the community, not only with their shopping but also support them with advice and referrals to other agencies. People who live in the SO18/19 postcode can apply to become members, although we currently have a waiting list due to high demand. Members pay a £5 membership fee each time they come to the shop. They are then able to choose 15 items to take away. When checking prices members on average receive £20-£25 of products each visit. Members therefore can ‘stretch’ their income. Food donations are received from various retail companies, local doctors surgeries, schools and we work closely with the Big Difference to reduce food waste. This food scheme has enabled people to have ownership and “buy in” by being members of not only the community pantry but the wider oasis community, rather than just recipients of something they have no control over. Our members have become involved by:
-
Volunteering, feedback shared by volunteers shows an increased feeling of self-worth and confidence
-
Being involved in decision-making over how the affordable food scheme runs
-
• Helping shape future programmes at our hub
Christmas Complete Project
With the support of Oasis Mayfield, Oasis Sholing & the SCRATCH project we identified families who needed support during the Christmas period, delivering toys & gifts to children & young people who might otherwise have gone without presents.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
Holiday Programmes
We were successful in securing funding from the Southampton HAF project (Holiday activity and food programme) to run holidays activities during Easter, Summer & half-term holidays.
The programme offered sports, crafts, and cooking opportunities alongside health & wellbeing sessions. A nutritious hot meal was served daily and through the engagement with families we were able to sign post on to further support as needed.
We also support our disadvantaged families through the ‘Cooking at Home’ project. Families received a weekly box of fresh ingredients and recipes (written and videos) allowing them to cook a healthy nutritious meal for the family.
We also ran a hugely successful family Christmas event – A roller disco, followed by a Christmas dinner for all the family and a present for every child attending. It was wonderful to see families enjoying an activity they would have been unable to afford.
Youth Work
-
Detached youth work - Funding has allowed us to deliver detached youth work. We have identified areas with a high incidence of anti-social behaviour based on community input, local authorities, and police reports. Our youth workers, equipped with the oasis youth van, visit these areas at specific times, creating a safe and inviting space for young people to gather. The youth workers engage with young individuals, fostering positive relationships, and providing support, guidance, and information about available resources and services. This consistent and non-judgmental engagement has helped build trust over time, allowing young people to open up about their concerns and needs.
-
The programme has enabled us to gain feedback from over 300 young people, and is helping to shape future youth work, including regular drop-in sessions at two venues in the area giving the young people access to a safe, warm secure space. In partnership with SCC, Plus you ltd Police and SO19 big local we have been able to deliver two older youth events
-
Saturday youth club - Our free club continues to be well received with on average 20 young people attending each week engaging in various activities including sports, crafting & team building. This programme is targeted at the more vulnerable in the community and the increase in confidence and selfesteem we have seen in the young people has been fabulous. This programme also allows us to build positive relationships with the families and signpost to other projects we run.
-
Children’s Parties utilising the facilities at Oasis Mayfield we continue to offer affordable children’s parties with a choice from football, multi-sport, glow sport or disco. With over 150 run in the last year the feedback from the community has been incredibly positive.
-
We have delivered grief & loss courses for students at both Oasis Mayfield & Oasis Sholing.
Prom Dress Hire Project
Originating from wanting all students to be able to enjoy their end of year prom fully and knowing some students were finding it difficult to buy a prom outfit, Our prom dress project has gone from strength to strength. Not only is this helping to make Prom more inclusive and affordable, but it is also reducing the waste created by fast fashion, a significant environmental issue in today’s society. The local community have really got behind this initiative by donating outfits of which we now have over 250.

Ladies Fitness Programme
With funding from Opening Schools, we have launched our ladies’ fitness group this is designed to help women with low confidence, social isolation, and a desire to improve their physical and mental health. It is aimed at women who want to make new friends, build a community, and get fit in a supportive environment. But would struggle in an ‘open to all’ gym. We will have a maximum of eight ladies per group, ensuring that everyone gets personalized attention from our expert trainer. Our programme is made up of:
-
Six weeks beginners' sessions, aimed at introducing ladies to fitness in a gentle and supportive way.
-
• Six weeks of intermediate sessions, where they build on your fitness gains and work towards more challenging goals with a personalised plan.
-
One year of free membership to our fitness suite at Oasis Mayfield. This will give you access to a wide range of equipment and facilities to support your fitness journey.
Being part of the ladies’ fitness group is an opportunity to improve both physical & mental health, meet new friends, and build a sense of community, but most importantly have fun.
Church & Chaplaincy
Regular chaplaincy support is provided to the academies and continues to be a strong theme. The Director or Hub and Ethos is a regular presence in the Hub running activities, and providing support to staff, students and families.
Relationship of Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield to other Oasis companies
The Hub has three relationships with the wider Oasis group:
-
With the national group of Oasis organisations
-
With the Oasis Community Partnerships group
-
With Oasis Academies Mayfield and Sholing
These are described below as follows:
1. The national Oasis Group
The Oasis family of charities in the UK has been structured to enable the entire group to benefit from working together towards national objectives while at the same time being able to deliver maximum impact in local communities. The challenge of running a national charity is in ensuring the correct needs are being addressed in local communities, while the advantage is working collaboratively at a national level to minimise cost locally and benefitting from the value of interdependent working. This ‘hybrid structure’ has been developed to ensure that local ownership and oversight is achieved whilst leveraging economies of scale.
At a national level, Oasis Charitable Trust is responsible for all Oasis’ activities in the UK and is the parent company for three national subsidiaries. These are:
-
Oasis Community Learning – a multi-academy chain running 54 academies across England 2. Oasis Community Partnerships – a charity delivering community development work
-
Oasis Community Housing – a housing charity supporting vulnerable adults and young people

DIRECTORS' REPORT (cont.) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
2. The Oasis Community Partnerships Group
Within this group structure, Oasis Community Partnerships is responsible for all of Oasis’ community development work in the UK. It is the national holding company for 19 local Oasis Community Hubs and one Trading Company, delivering integrated community development work in a number of targeted neighbourhoods across the country.
Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield is a local subsidiary of Oasis Community Partnerships, which, in the same way as the group structure, is also a hybrid model. This enables sharing of resources, best practice and central support functions while Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield operates locally in order to respond appropriately to the needs of the local area. As a result, Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield benefits from higher quality and cheaper infrastructure than it would be able to access as entirely standalone organisation.
3. Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield and its partnership with Oasis Academies
Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield is governed by a local board of trustees, who are accountable for the financial management of the hub, overseeing the development of projects to meet local needs and ensuring that those projects benefit from any funds raised. As explained about Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield is a subsidiary of Oasis Community Partnerships, which in turn is a subsidiary of Oasis Charitable Trust.
Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield delivers integrated community development work in the community surrounding Oasis Academy Mayfield (secondary school). One objective of Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield is to provide wrap around care for students and their parents/carers at the Academies. Therefore, Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield works in close partnership with Oasis Academies Mayfield and Sholing in order to provide integrated and holistic community transformation.
Financial review
The total incoming resources during the year ended 31st August 2023 amounted to £89,081 (2022: £70,389). Expenditure amounted to £72,251 (2022: £30,493). The overall result is a surplus of £16,830 (2022: £39,896) leaving retained funds of £68,033 (2022: £51,203).
Going concern
The Directors have considered the risks to the Hub, including the cost of living crisis. The Directors have confirmed that the major sources of grant funding are committed. and the delivery of the activities can be adjusted to ensure that guidelines around social distancing can still be applied. Furthermore, the Directors are confident that costs will only be incurred to the extent that funding is secured. The Directors are confident that the Hub has adequate resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future and, for this reason, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.
Plans for the future
The mission of Oasis Community Hub: Mayfield is to establish a local place of activity that provides integrated, high quality and diverse services to benefit the whole person and the whole community. The Hub does this by bringing together Oasis’ values, resources, expertise, and a diverse range of activities, partnerships and operations.
The Hub’s objective for this coming year is to continue all youth, community, and church projects and to expand the current offer to ensure projects maintain their high quality and relevance within the context of the community. The Hub team is determined to ensure projects meet the needs of the whole community.

EXAMINERS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2023.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes 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 provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- 1) which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
- 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company.
1.3 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Directors in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.
1.4 Income
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of financial activities when the company is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy and the likelihood of receipt of the income is gifts and donations are recognised on receipt.
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
• Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of educational activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
• Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred
1.6 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.
1.7 Cash at bank and in hand
- Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.8 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives.
Page 11
OASIS COMMUNITY HUB: MAYFIELD

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
1.9 Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
1.10 Financial instruments
The company has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. Financial assets held at amortised cost comprise cash and bank and in hand, together with trade and other debtors. Financial liabilities held at amortised cost comprise bank loans and overdrafts, trade and other creditors.
1.11 Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates, assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects the current and future periods.
In the view of the directors, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affecting assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year.
1.12 Reconciliation with previously accepted Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
In preparing the accounts, the directors have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required.
In preparing the accounts, the trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required. In their estimation, the impact of transitioning is not material to the financial statements and therefore the restatement of comparative items is not required. The transition date was 1 September 2014.
