TRUSTEES, REPORT contlnued
YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
Chairman's Introduction to the Annual Report
This year I have been fortunate enough to lead a group of Trustees who have assisled in the
development of Help 4 Homeless Veterans charity, and at short notice. With the introduction in
July 2023 of OP FORTITUDE. It was necessary to review the area of the charity's operation.
The Trustees approved the reduction of H4HV operational area from all of England to the
Yorkshire & The Humber regions.
Two years ago, we introduced our drop-in centre in Barnsley. Despite all efforts the centre
never really gol the support from local veterans. The centre was closed in February of this year,
and this released resources of £1 Ok to spend on supporting vulnerable veterans.
l am informed by our CEO Steve Bentham-Bates that over this year we have assisted 56
velerans. This does demonstrate that nolwilhstanding OP FORTITUDE and the reduction of Dur
area of operations, the help and resources of the H4HV charity are very much in demand.
The charity continues to raise funds, but if we are to maintain our position in helping vulnerable
veterans, we as trustees need to increase our efforts in fund raising. The ever-increasing cost of
living has meant we have had to increase our support, in financial temis, to needy vulnerable
veterans, An example has been the level of private property rents, which have increased
dramatically over this last year.
In looking forward, the Trustees have got lo give some serious thought to the replacernent of
our CEO who has re-iterated his wish to retire in May 2025. 1 too will retire from the Charity in
May 2025.
Should the Trustees be willing to move forward we need to look at new initiatives, not just in
fundraising. This needs lo be better coordinated, not relying on the work of the CEO alone.
The Trustees need to seriously consider new projects like a refuge for vulnerable homeless
veterans. Starting in Barnsley, with progression of a property in differing parts of the region we
now cover.
Finally, I would like to thank Tom Wood, our founder, for his help and guidance over the last
year. To our CEO, always at Ihe end of Ihe phone should I need him, my thanks for being there.
To you the Trustees who have attended th8 meetings and made valuable contributions at the
meetings or via email, when necessary. Thank you.
How could I forget Amber Guyrner our illustrious ambassador. She has been a great
ambassador for the charity as well as fundraiser.
I musl also mention here one volunteer. Mrs Diane Martin, who has sadly passed away. She
was wilh Andy at the Bamsley Drop-ln, with a ready smile and willingness to prepare the food
and drinks for all who passed through the doors to the centre.

YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
CEO'S Annual Report
This period has been for the charity, one of its most challenging since I took control in 2015. We
have made several decisions regrouping, taking the charity back to basics, to ensure that we can
continue to provide the coal-face assistance lo vulnerable holneless veterans when they need it, as
our Founder set out to do when he created H4HV back in 2010.
Like many other organisalions. we have faced higher costs necessitating some difficult decisions
by the Trustees, thus enabling us to continue providing our core support lo homeless veterans, of
paying initial rents and bonds and helping them set up homes.
Last year we made the realistic decision to withdraw from covering all of England and Wales to the
four Yorkshire Counties and North and Northeast Lincolnshire, essentially the Yorkshire & The
Humber reglons.
That has proved to be a sound decision enabling us to focus our limited resources. This wasny
purely a financial call. With the introduction of OP FORTITUDE last July and the growth of similar
regional charities lo ours in various other areas, it was and remains the correct change of policy.
We introduced our DROP-IN support centre in Barnsley Iwo years ago, but it never really gained
the support from local veterans, The footfall didn't justify the expense of keeping it open, so we
closed that in February this year, releasing £1 Ok + a year lo be spent on homeless veterans.
Likewise, the two vehicles.. a display van and a minibus have not paid their way, so again we have
sold them to top up our cash reserves, to be used for our core work supporting vulnerable
veterans.
Due lo 8 500/0 increase in rent and utility bills for the storage lock-up we recently took the decision
to cancel that agreement, releasing sufficient monthly funds to cover another veterans rent bill,
again our core work. Instead of storing items ready for issue we now buy and have delivered, rf
ne￿$sary, items such as fridges cookers etc to the veterans new homes.
The average cost of supporting each veleran we assist has risen. Two recent examples, a former
RA soldier we paid out over £1400, and another ex-infantry soldier over £906 in rents. Compared
to a couple of years ago when it usually cost around £600 to help one veteran, you can appreciate
the additional funding stress we face.
Notwithstanding all of the above. the good news is that during this 12-month period, 56 veterans
have benefited from our rapid support. The oldest was a 73-year-old former Green Howard
Northern Ireland veteran.
In addition, we have steered 6 veterans lowards Op Fortitude, due to their circumstances needing
greater support i.e. supported housing help.
Moving forward:
I have agreed with the trustees to work until June 2025, my 70 birthday. to Gomplete the financial
year starting 1, May 2024.
Last week, after 14 years of selfless voluntary service, our Founder Tom Wood MBE retired due to
serious health issues.

HELP4HOMELESSVETERANS
TRUSTEES, REPORT Gontinued
YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
We also received the MOD Employer Recognition Scheme Bronze Award.
We have sufficient reserves to enable us to plan ahead for at least 12 months, a strong position for
a charity of our sÉze. Our unrestricted funds are healthy because of the support you, the public,
give.
So at this point I wish to thank everyone who has fundraised for us this year in a variety of ways.
including some of our own trustees and volunteers. abseiling 150 feet in the dark at Magna Centre.
Also, once again THE VETERANS FOUNDATION has provided help that we would like to thank
them for. This includes another two years of funding, towards the FARM THERAPY PROJECT. we
work on with my old RAF Regl colleague Jamie Quinn.
Despite the serious health conditions requiring regular hospital visitsltreatments of our FoLsnder, he
continued lo provide ongoing rapid reactions to requests for our Gharitable assistance. But this
leaves a massive gap in our team and I will be seeking a couple of volunteers to join us.
Sadly. one of our key volunteers.. hnrs Diane Martin, passed away in January, and it is with Diane in
mind that I dedicate the work of Help 4 Homeless Veterans charity to you, the reader, this year.
