## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2019). 

The company is a private company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. It has claimed exemption from using the word "Limited". 

Hope Church, Nottingham continues to define its purpose through mission, community, worship and discipleship and is pleased to have in place a youth and children's programme, small group structure, prayer, worship, teaching, ladies events, alongside social and outreach events that work towards that goal. We continue to work with other churches both within the community and across the city of Nottingham, and to be represented and respected by many of the voluntary and statutory organisations within the community. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **How our activities deliver public benefit** 

Our main activities and who we try to help are described below. All our charitable activities focus on helping to support individuals within the community of Clifton, Nottingham and beyond with a wide range of projects that promote personal, social and spiritual wellbeing leading to increased self-esteem. We take a holistic approach to our work and our activities support the development of physical, social and spiritual wellbeing and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit.

**HOPE CHURCH, NOTTINGHAM (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07968840)** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

As for many charitable organisations 2021 was the year when we started to normalise our activities as the pressure around the Covid Pandemic started to ease. After a sustained period of either closure or seriously reduced activities, we made slow but steady progress throughout the year so that by the end of 2022 we had fully reopened all our projects and activities. 

This report for 2021 details the significant changes and activities throughout that year. 

## **Sunday Services** 

Sunday services during 2021 started out online with only a small technical and presenting team, this gradually progressed as government guidelines changed regarding places of worship. We slowly integrated people back into the building socially distanced via a booking system, starting with the most vulnerable to provide a safe place as they emerged from lockdown conditions and by late summer we were able to lift all restrictions to Sunday worship. 

## **Children and Youth Pastor** 

In July 2021 we appointed Andrew Wallace as our full time Youth & Children's Pastor. Appointing Andrew enables us to develop our under 16s work within the church and in the community. Since the start of his employment Andrew has formed a strong link with Enthusiasm who work with teenagers in Clifton, and implemented a strong foundation for our children's/youth work going forward. 

## **Café** 

In November 2021 we appointed Rosie Wallace to the position of Café Manager, and reopened on Wednesday 1st December, initially with a reduced menu, with the plan to expand in 2022. December along with the Christmas Spirit saw many of our regulars back enjoying good food and community. 

## **Room Hire** 

Although we no longer offer hire on Saturdays for birthday parties due to the building being closed, we have had a steady stream of new bookings from a healthcare, local business and community organisations We are limited on hire periods during the week due to regular activities within the centre. 

## **Santa Trail** 

In December 2021, we held our first community event post covid. The Santa Trail was a huge success, the centre subsidised the cost of tickets, to enable children and adults from the local community to head round the Christmas trail, taking part in different games and activities along the way. They all met with Santa and received a gift, then had some hot chocolate and mince pies in the café before heading outside for some carols and to meet the animals in the living nativity, 

## **Youth and Children's Work Overview** 

As noted above, Andrew Wallace stepped into the role of Senior Youth and Children's Leader in July 2021. At that time we did not have any youth or children's activities running as Covid had caused everything to be put on hold. During August I dedicated my time to planning and preparation for the restart of activities with the new academic year in September. The first thing that we relaunched was Bubbles, our parent and toddler group. About 30 adults with their little ones came along to the first session and we have seen anywhere between 20 and 40 ever since. The group is very popular and it is great to see families enjoying themselves and building relationships with others in their community. In December we did a special session with Santa's Grotto, and we had about 60 adults attend with their children. 

In November we restarted Excite, our after school club for primary school children. This started with only a handful of children attending but numbers grew towards the end of the year. Children have a great time playing games, making crafts and enjoying sandwiches, fruit and crisps. The club is offered free of charge and the parents appreciate having something fun and free to bring their children to each week. It is great to see friendships growing between the children who attend. 

We also restarted Sunday sessions for our children during the Church service. We began with just one session for all school-age children and saw the numbers attending grow through the Autumn term. The children enjoy the opportunity to play games, listen to a Bible story and create a craft. Plans were put in place to begin a separate group for the secondary school age children in January 2022, as the sessions were being aimed at the younger children. We also created a crèche area for pre-school children where parents could take them to play whilst the service is on the screen. 

Over the Autumn term we trialed a few different groups for teenagers which didn't receive good attendance. Towards the end of the year we put a new plan in place for a Friday evening youth club for children age 11-16 which had a greater level of interest. 

In addition to the regular groups we were involved in providing community events such as a family fun day in the October half term and a Santa trail at Christmas. We also provided music and carols at Christmas services.

**HOPE CHURCH, NOTTINGHAM (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07968840)** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

Hope continues to be known in the community as a place that provides great, fun activities for children and families and this will always be a priority for us. 

## **NG11 Foodbank** 

The NG11 Foodbank continues to offer its weekly service to the NG11 area providing emergency food parcels for people in crisis. The need for this service continues to increase, whilst over the past year, as have we have moved out of the Covid pandemic, the manager and steering group have been developing the next phase of our work. This will lead to the development of the Food Box Scheme, Money Hub, Fuel Bank and budgeting course. It is hoped that these initiatives will come online during 2022. The partnership work between Nottingham Advice Centre continues as they offer their specialist service to the Clifton Community via the NG11 Foodbank and Hope Centre base. 

The Steering Group also continued its strategic approach to the project working to our 8 objectives with are: 

i) To provide emergency food to those in crisis 

ii) To directly help people find long term solutions to their issues 

iii) To signpost effectively to other services 

iv) To build connections and partnerships between local services 

v) To raise awareness about poverty in the local area 

vi) To campaign to end poverty in the local area 

vii) To help the local community and engage with those experiencing poverty 

viii) To influence what happens nationally by providing local information fund raising to ensure our activities and services were robust and sustainable. 

## **Fundraising activities** 

Hope Enterprises (Nottingham) Limited is the trading subsidiary company of Hope Church Nottingham and continued to operate its four shops in Clifton, Sherwood, Meadows and Crown Island. Having had to close due to Covid in the earlier part of 2021 the shops quickly got back to trading once we reopened the doors. Our aim for the shops is to create optimum success for the benefit of the charity and its objectives. 

The charity also operates a separate trading subsidiary in order to run the Hope Café as referred to earlier in the report called Hope Café Nottingham Limited. Separate accounts are submitted for Hope Enterprises (Nottingham) Limited and Hope Café Nottingham Limited to Companies House annually. Towards the end of the year and following the resignation of our part time Shop Manager the decision was made to recruit a full time person as Senior Area Manager in order to strengthen the shops and see how we could further develop the business in the future. Recruitment and appointment was concluded by the end of 2021 and Dave Horner took on the new role in January 2022. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The Charity has four principal sources of income: 

1. Voluntary contributions of its members 

2. Grants 

3. Gift Aid from Hope Enterprises Nottingham 

4. Gift Aid returns 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees have examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be three months of expenditure. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the Management Committee are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Organisational structure and staffing** 

The Church Council has continued to meet regularly throughout the year to monitor finance and expenditure, to oversee procedures and policies and to ensure that the charity maintains good housekeeping and adheres to its responsibilities under charitable law. 

Stephen Hackney continued in a full-time role as Minister of the church, and continued with the leadership, pastoral and ministry responsibilities, supported by the wider Church leadership.

## **13. SECURED DEBTS** 

The following secured debts are included within creditors: 

Bank loans 

|**2021**|2020|
|---|---|
|**£**|£|
|**194,688**|199,271|



The bank loan is secured by way of a fixed legal charge dated 28 March 2014 in favour of Kingdom Bank Limited, over the freehold property owned by the company, and by a floating charge over the general assets and undertaking of the company. 

A further charge dated 28 April 2015 in favour of Big Lottery Fund has been created to secure the grant monies received from them to assist the company in its project of acquiring and refurbishing the Hope Centre. Should the company breach any of the terms relating to the award of the grant then Big Lottery Fund has the right to request repayment of the grant monies, and should that prove to be not possible then they are able to acquire the freehold of the Hope Centre from the company. 

## **14. ACCRUALS AND DEFERRED INCOME** 

## Deferred funding grants 

|**2021**|2020|
|---|---|
|**£**|£|
|**613,217**|627,148|



The charity has received an amount of £696,553 in total of grant funding (of which 93% was from The Big Lottery Fund) towards the cost of the acquisition and refurbishment of the Hope Centre. These amounts have been treated as deferred income, and as the centre is now in use, then of this amount, £13,931 (2020: £13,931) has been amortised and credited to reserves in the year. Cumulative amortisation of the grants received amounts to £83,336 to the end of this accounting period (2020: £69,405)..
