## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

2022 has been a stable year for our charity as we work hard to fulfil our objectives. We have been encouraged to see our congregation to return to pre covid levels and activities have fully reestablished over the course of the year. This report for 2022 details the significant changes and activities throughout that year. 

## **Sunday Services** 

Sunday services during 2022 have seen increase especially in regard to our children and youth with increasing numbers attending over the course of the year. In addition the diversity of the congregation continues with our special International Service representing over 20 nationalities! 

## **Café** 

This year saw the first full year of trading for our Café which has very much a community focus - offering a place where people can meet and chat and help break down patterns of loneliness and isolation. In addition we are a venue offering many volunteer opportunities when individuals can learn new skills and grow in confidence before looking for other employment opportunities as their skills and confidence grows. 

## **Room Hire** 

Although we no longer offer hire on Saturdays for birthday parties due to the building being closed, we have seen 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. 

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

2022 saw significant growth and development in our work with children and young people. During the weekdays, Excite, our weekly after school club more than doubled in size to 35 children in regular attendance. In conversation with volunteers (parents and students as well as from church) I continued to refine the structure and activities to find a good rhythm to allow the children to have fun without it becoming too chaotic. There has been good involvement from volunteers outside the church, both parents and  students, to support the running of these activities. Bubbles parent and toddler group has remained as popular as ever and has seen more volunteers from the community becoming involved. The youth club on Fridays has experienced steady, organic growth through those attending inviting their friends which aligns with the intended way for the group to develop. Friendships continued to deepen and the young people seem to feel relaxed and safe when attending. 

On Sundays we continued to see good numbers across all different age groups. We introduced the separate youth session for age 11-16 in January and with the start of the new academic year in September we also brought in a separate session for age 3-6. I have worked with my volunteer team to try and develop a consistent structure across the groups so that the sessions feel connected and the children know what to expect. They have explored various biblical themes to help understand what faith means and what it looks like to follow Jesus. 

In addition to these regular activities we have once again provided additional community events. We ran Easter Club in the holidays and multiple family fun events throughout the year as well as our Santa Trail Christmas event and carol/Christingle services. 

Aims looking towards 2023 were to consider a better space option for youth on Sundays as it continues to grow. Also looking for ways to manage growth in Excite and Bubbles. There was also a need to bring our safeguarding practice up to date and ensure all volunteers were appropriately trained. 

## **NG11 Foodbank** 

Over the year our Food Bank continued to offer two sessions every week and numbers have increased by 32% in supporting people in financial crisis. 

The Food Box Scheme is now well established, offering basic skills to clients as well as food boxes providing fresh produce as part of the venture and runs weekly for families in need of continued support. 

The initiatives over the last year are continuing to grow, these include: 

" budgeting courses 

" basic cooking skills 

" fuel bank - we give £20 vouchers to clients who are on a pre-payment metre 

" meat vouchers to offer choices 

" café vouchers to offer a warm space and nourishment. 

We continue to be partnered with Nottingham Citizens Advice, 14.5 hrs weekly, and now have established the support of Debt Advice at 16 hours every week.

His experience in retail has added significantly to our operations and along with the full time nature of the role to the management and over productivity of the shops. Our aim for the shops is to create optimum success for the benefit of the charity and its objectives.

The Charity has four principal sources of income: 

## 1. Voluntary contributions of its members 

2. Grants 

3. Gift Aid from Hope Enterprises Nottingham Limited 

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.

## **12. SECURED DEBTS** 

The following secured debts are included within creditors: 

||**2022**|2021|
|---|---|---|
||**£**|£|
|Bank loans|**188,415**|194,688|



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. 

## **13. ACCRUALS AND DEFERRED INCOME** 

Deferred funding grants 

|**2022**|2021|
|---|---|
|**£**|£|
|**633,096**|613,217|



The charity has received an amount in total of £731,053 of grant funding (of which 89% was from The Big Lottery Fund) towards the cost of the acquisition, refurbishment and subsequent extension of the Hope Centre. This includes an additional grant of £34,500 received from the Trussell Trust during 2022 to help fund the extension to the centre due to the growth of the foodbank. 

These amounts have been treated as deferred income, and as the centre is now in use, then of this amount, £14,621 (2021: £13,931) has been amortised and credited to reserves in the year. Cumulative amortisation of the grants received amounts to £97,527 to the end of this accounting period (2021: £83,336)..
