Responsibility for the day to day running of the charity is devolved to the Chief Officer management team and trustees.

Risk Management

These risks are identified, and established systems and procedures are put in place to manage these risks. A risk register is kept and discussed as appropriate. No major issues nor serious reportable events were recorded in the time period.

Objectives and Activities

The charity’s objectives are defined as:

Hoarding Project - Jigsaw runs its pioneering Hoarding recovery service, this entails a full range of sub services such as benefit advice, home visits and clearance assistance, signposting, counselling, and a mental health group.

Additional Charitable Activities - Jigsaw continues to conduct charitable activities not part of its primary hoarding project, these tend to be aimed at poverty relief, in the Mansfield area and Bassetlaw council area and the wider Nottinghamshire area as well. This has been small scale poverty relief and food bank services, as well as the facilitation of specific charitable acts by third parties.

Executive Committee Report

Volunteers

The board would also like to note the sad loss of a number of jigsaw volunteers and staff, due to ill health in this period, we are very grateful for their contributions over the years and our sympathies are with their loved ones.

Fundraising

As well as small time individual donor’s Jigsaw received funding from the following entities: Notts County Council, Mansfield District Council, Mansfield District Councillors Fund, Bassetlaw District Council, The Arnold Clark Fund and the Coalfields Trust.

Activities

Jigsaw has continued to carry out its main activity its hoarding support program, this was planned to be our only project of the year but due to the situation in Ukraine, a small grant was acquired to set up a separate Ukraine project aimed at relieving the suffering of Ukrainian refugees.

Assets

Jigsaw has retained possession of a red ford connect van donated by NFD, this van is estimated to be valued between £2000-£3000, Jigsaw also retains the use of two laptops and associated software. Purchased during this period, estimated to value between £400-£500 pounds.

Jigsaw also retains the use of a small amount of office ancillaries such as a printer, two chairs, stationery etc Estimated to cost less than £100 pounds.

Staffing

Jigsaw at the end of this period has two employees down from three due to the unfortunate passing of V Hopewell.

Jigsaw retains a large pool of volunteers whom we must thank due to the impossibility of our operation without them.

Other Financial Matters

Jigsaw offers a NEST pension scheme as required at the end of the relevant financial period, but no staff member has taken this up.

Financial Review

The charity had net expenditure for the year of £13,269 (2022 - net income of £412). The total funds carried forward at 31st March 2022 amounted to £20,522 (2022 - £33,791).

"Jigsaw" Support Scheme

Executive Committee Report

Reserves Policy

Jigsaw has traditionally been funded through grants and contracts and there is always a degree of funding instability. It is therefore necessary to maintain a level of unrestricted funds, so that in the event of future funding not being committed the scheme can wind down its activities over a reasonable period. As is required by charity commission guidance.

The current amount to be held in reserves is 3 months running costs. The reason for this is that should Jigsaw be unable to continue its services due to lack of funding, the beneficiaries of the scheme are given some months to adjust to the situation and find other services to replace Jigsaw. The support workers would be able to build the situation into service reviews and work with the service users to seek alternative support.

This policy is reviewed annually in order that the amount of funding maintained in reserves is in proportion to the overall budget and activities.

Annual Report and Plans for the Future

As we approach the end of this year, we reflect on the strides we've made together in fostering mental health and well-being within our community. It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of the sad passing of a dear member of our Jigsaw family, Vaughan Hopewell. Vaughan was not only a passionate advocate for mental health, but also a warm and compassionate soul who touched the lives of many. Their legacy will forever remain in our hearts, and we extend our deepest condolences to V's family and friends during this difficult time.

As we bid farewell to this year, we also say goodbye to a valued member of our team. R Sykes has been an integral part of Jigsaw Support Scheme, contributing wholeheartedly to our mission. We express our sincere gratitude to R for their dedication and hard work. While we will miss R's presence within our team, we wish them every success in their future endeavours. May their journey be filled with fulfilment and new opportunities.

Looking ahead to the coming year, we renew our commitment to fostering a supportive and understanding community for mental health. Together, we can continue to make a positive impact on the lives of those who seek our help.

Thank you for being an essential part of Jigsaw Support Scheme. Wishing you all a peaceful and joyful holiday season, and a new year filled with hope, resilience, and compassion.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

1 Accounting policies

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

"Jigsaw" Support Scheme meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements.

Going concern

As with most charities we have been impacted by the Coronavirus (Covid 19). This has had an impact on our operations and staff. We have (where appropriate) utilised the grants and benefits available from the Government and are taking all the steps we can to protect the future of our business. Although the total impact is still uncertain the trustees believe that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.

Income and endowments

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Deferred income

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when:

Investment income

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

Page 11

"Jigsaw" Support Scheme

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Support costs

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £350.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Computer equipment

Depreciation method and rate straight line basis over 3 years

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Page 12

"Jigsaw" Support Scheme

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
