Wirral Society of the Blind and Partially Sighted

Trustees’ annual report (including Directors’ report) for the period

From: 1 April 2022 To: 31 March 2023

Charity name: Wirral Society of the Blind and Partially Sighted

Charity registration number: 1147170

Company number: 07982870

Objectives and activities

The objectives of the charity are to provide services, facilities and support to blind and partially sighted people in the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral, for public benefit. We promote and encourage self-help and independence by empowering people and removing the barriers they face.

The Society provides a wide range of services and facilities to address the needs of our clients, including the following:

-A Resource Centre equipped with low vision and daily living aids -Outreach Support service -Advocacy Service -Drop in support -Creative and Social activities -Computer technology training courses -Audio Book Library -Hospital Liaison service based at The University Teaching Hospital

-Service user support groups

The Society is named 'Of the Blind and Partially Sighted'. This gives ownership to those requiring and using our services. We work with our clients to ensure we meet the needs of the group of people we support.

The trustees are aware of the Commission’s guidance on public benefit, and consider that the purposes of the charity are for the public benefit.

Achievements and performance

From April 2022 we have continued to work to bring the Charity back from the impact of COVID19, increase partnerships and strengthen our capacity to increase provision. We have worked well with our partnership with the Wirral Health and Well Being consortium brought about through a local authority contract. This was to bring together separate organisations where provision would benefit from pooled expertise and resources to enhance the efficiency and quality of service provision. In partnership with the CIC, we were successful in winning this contract leading to WSBPS working in partnership with Merseyside Society for Deaf People (MSDP), enabling us to provide support for dual sensory loss. We have made modifications to our Resource Centre to accommodate the increase in service provision and facilitate groups and activities for deaf blind people.

We have demonstrated strength and resilience through working alongside partners to increase funding streams through joint events and applications.

WSBPS has always looked to the future regarding service provision. We have been successful, in the past, in securing grants and support from local agencies to help us do our work, but we recognise that the funding climate is rapidly changing. We work to develop internal mechanisms and systems to help us recognise wider opportunities and aspects of fundraising.

We have received support and encouragement from independent funders, statutory bodies and corporate connections. We are grateful for this support that has helped us to maintain our services coming through some of the most difficult times the Charity has faced and take a positive approach to future developments.

Our funding and development strategy runs over the next three years where we have identified areas of development with a focus on increasing provision and support to our children and young people. We aim to work with young people in building their confidence, awareness of ability in building a positive approach to visual impairment. We see this as an important element of growth and development through supporting our younger generations to take lead roles in recognising changing needs and future provision.

We continue to work with Wirral NHS Trust, and our new contract with Wirral Borough Council and partnership with MSDP will work to build strong links with wider community health care providers and strengthen our sensory service provision. We will continue to build on these partnerships increasing referral pathways to support across Wirral.

We aim to work with a range of differing funding organisations to enable us to meet current and future service needs. Our whole ethos has been developed and built through working with and not for our beneficiaries. We ensure that their views and experiences are actively listened to and taken account of as part of how the Charity operates in facilitating engagement and communication. We work to make positive differences to the lives of people with sight loss, encouraging individuals to focus on what they can achieve, influence positive changes, and live independent and fulfilled lives.

Financial review

Income levels, with respect to both unrestricted donations and restricted funding grants, has remained relatively steady, thanks to the work of the fundraising team and development officer in attracting new funders, and to the many kind donations and legacies received over the period.

The annual deficit of just over £31,000 is mostly a result of increased expenditure, notably in energy costs and repair work.

Reserves at 31 March 2023 are £92,974, and this is anticipated to represent approximately six months’ worth of costs.

It is, as always, crucial that further funding is obtained in order for the society to continue providing the current level of services to the community, and the employees and volunteers are working hard to achieve this.

Structure, governance and management

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 8 March 2012 and registered as a charity on 9 May 2012. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.

The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law, and under the company’s Articles are known as members of the Management Committee. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the members of the Management Committee are elected to serve for a period of three years after which they must be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting. All members of the Management Committee give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
