Achlevements and Performance Thls year has been very successful wlth our organisation continuing to provide deep rooted support to those most in need. Our work has continued representing the local voluntary, comrnunity, faith and social enterprise sector. The Community Exchange continued to focu5 on supporting asylum seekers and refugees as they experienced many socfetal challenges. Thls support covered a wide variety of subjects including GP reg75trations, houslng support, sch(M)I registrations and access to equipment such as laptops and bikes to asslst with education and cost-effective commuting. We also hosted a variety of grant schemes and we effectlvely distributed the funds across a wide variety of organlsatlons. This demonstrated our reach and ability to engage with the local voluntary sector. These relationships continued to thrive as we continued to develop a digital first approach with a forum which we called the Basildon Borough Community Network. This has galned almost 2(X) members before the financial year concluded and enabled us to diversify the way we communicate between our networks, as we recognise the overwhelm7ng dissemination of
BASILDON BILLERICAY & WICKFORD COUNCIL FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the Year Ended 31 IAarch 2025 information. This approach provides our members with the opportunity to dip in and out as 7t suits them, whilst having the opportunity to search previous topics as a longer-temi knowledge library. with infonnation collected in one place for easier access. Below is a brlef update on the achievements of our main projects that we host and supp)rt: Local Infrastructure Support This year we supported 170 enquiries from local groups with one-to-one advice. These requests for support cover a range of subjects including governance and funding advice, risk management, strategy, and project delivery. Thls servlce TS our core prlority and last year we developed a digital forum to improve our approach. This is called Basildon Borough Community Network and has 185 registered members. The intention 15 to help members access information in their own time and in a more consistent way. This has also helped us to understand the services that our members most frequently use and access. We also provlde a regular e-bulletin whlch were opened 2,666 times across nine edftions. BENS (Basildon Emergency Night Shelter) We continue to connect with the local church network to host a temporary annual homeless shelter throughout the winter period. We provide the coordination and dellvery of the service whilst the churches donate their venues and support volunteer recruitment. This year's Shelter supported over 46 homeless individuals and provided 1209 bed stays. We were supported by 90 volunteers vtho provided 2062. 5 hours of support. The Fun Walk Trust We continued to oversee and admlnlster the flnances for this fundraising scheme based upon a sp)nsored walk for non-profit organisations. The sponsorship is then topped up by business donations and this particular year increased the contribution by 30%. The Fun Walk has now reached a phenomenal milestone, as the total ralsed slnce it was founded in 21KJ2 has now exceeded £1.6 million. This year's Fun Walk raised over £1CX),000 with approximately 2,(J)O supporters taking part in sponsored walks across Essex. The funds were raised for over 70 local charities and good causes including those supporting young people, mental health, disability> environmental, educational, community sporting and advocacy groups.
BASILDON BILLERICAY & WICKFORD COUNCIL FOR VOLuKfARY SERVICE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the Year Ended 31 March 2025 The Community Exchange We continued to deliver a weekly drop-in session at the Happy Hub supporting the public to identify support and SeICeS to help them to resolve their challenges. We continue to develop this multi-faceted project which intends to support the public online, by telephone and face-to-face. We have been developing a community asset directory to assist residents in identlfyfng and accessing the wide range of support and actlvities that are available locally. Thls prototype approach is embedded into all our projects and core work which helps us to collaborate with other charities more positively. This support seryice helped to resolve 1,613 individual enquiries from the public. The project also enabled us to provide support for those that are digitally isolated as we distributed 250 SIM cards with six months of free calls, texts, and data. This project also hosts a socfal media page helping to support preventative approaches across our local public bodies. This has proven to be very successful and has reached 63,900 members of the public since July. This generated 270 5nteractions where the public dlrectly accessed other service offers. We also attended 25 communlty events and engaged with 536 members of the public. Volunteer Network Our volunteer brokerage service continued to help connect the public and organisatlons to build capacity through volunteering. This year we connected 449 new volunteers into the wider sector. We also provide general volunteering advice and updates vla our mailin8 list which currently has 12(X) subscribers. Health Inequalities Fund We continued to provlde the administration for the NHS Health Inequalities Fund in collaboration with Brentwood CVS. The fund administered over £383k, and supported tackling inequalities and the impact tkEy can make for vulnerable groups. The projects targeted support for different cohorts including BAME residents, people with complex needs and disabilities, and others with PQK)r mental health. Youth Clubs We continued the Heart of Pitsea's youth clubs as thelr project concluded this year. The two clubs provided opportunities for prfmary school students and secondary school teenager5. The clubs recorded 7Crf) individual attendances over the year and provided young people with a safe space to feel heard, supported, and part of the wider community.
ILD Y & WICKFORD COUN ILF RV ARY RVICE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the Year Ended 31 IAarch 2025 The Future We anticipated an unsettled perfod vthllst our typical Essex County Council commissions were still being allocated and configured. This was scheduled into four parts, and we had applied to deliver and lead an element recognised as "Community Participation" Unfortunately, we were unsuccessful with our tender. In conjunction with this, we have seen our funding from Basildon Council decline over the last few years. Despite effort5 to secure alternative funding, we have not len able to find sufficient sources to replace the lost Essex County Counc71 and Basildon Council funding. Having given consideration to secured incomes and the costs of running the CVS, the trustees have concluded that we do not have sufficient reserves to continue to operate beyond Autumn 2025. As such, the trustees took the difficult decision to propose an orderly winding down of the charity which was proposed to and approved by members at a extraordinary general meeting held on 29th May 2025. Structure, Governance and Management Risk Management The management of rlsk Is reviewed by the Chief Officer, staff team and by the trustee board on a periodic basis but no less than half yearty. The trustees examlne the major risks which the charity faces in relation to its governance and management, its internal operations and its business. financial risks, compliance risks and environmental and external risks. Further, the trustees continue to keep under review the systems of Internal flnanclal control. The systems have been designed to provide reasonable assurance against material mlsstatement or loss. They Include: a strategic plan and an annual budget approved by the trustees regular consideration by the trustees of financial results, variance from budgets and perfomiance against the non-financial annual plan delegation of authority and separation of duties. The internal financial controls conform to guidelines issued by the Charity Commission. Separate provision is made regarding health and safety which Is the subject of periodic review.
BASILDON BILLERICAY & WICKFORD COUNCIL FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Pay Policy Our remuneration policy for senior staff remains unchanged. In considering remuneration, the charity's purposes, values and achievements, as well as its income and activities are all taken into account, which influences how its pollcy is developed and put into practice. In particular, the trustees, aim is that the charity's Pay Policy should be to offer fair pay to attract and keep appropriately qualifled staff to lead, manage. supwrt and deliver the charity's aims. In deciding top levels of pay and rewards, trustees consider: the purposes. aims and values of the charity, and its beneflciaries, needs how this affects pay policy for all employees, and for the senior staff In particular, Including whether a lower rate of pay compared to similar roles in other sectors is appropriate how pay Is Ilnked to the skills, experiences and competencies that the charity needs from its senior staff and the scope of their roles the charity's current business plan and how implementing it may affect the number of senior staff the charity r*eds to employ or recwit, and the nature of these roles the charity's ability to pay, perceived by employees, donors and beneficiarfes ~ whether it's affordable, including in the longer term (perhaps based on a risk assessment of future income and expenditure) the approprlateness of the pay in the context of the charity. The trustees confirm that no member of staff recelves remuneratlon above £60,OCrf). Reserves Policy The strategy of the organisation remalns one which aims to have core funding from local authorities and income generation, whilst enabling ongoing development through project funding from large funders like the Big Lottery and charitable trusts. As a board the trustees are committed to: keeping the reserves pollcy under review to ensure it meets the charitrfs changing needs and circumstances. that the level of reserves is monitored throughout the year. When consTdering what level of reserves the charity should aiffl to malntain the trustees have given consideration to the level of working capital required to". Protect the continuity of our work Cover for risks such as unforeseen expenditure or unanticipated loss of income If required, wind the organisation down in an orderly way, allowing time to seek alternatives to such an eventuality
