elena et TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the company for the 1 October 2019 to 30 September 2020. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), 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 2015) as amended by Update Bulletin 1 (effective 1 January 2015).

Since the company qualifies as small under section 383, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under The Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Director's Report) Regulations 2013 is not required.

Objectives and Activities

a. POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES

Fundraising

Greenwich Foodbank Limited continues to employ four segments of fundraising activity:

Individual

A programme of recruiting individuals who would commit to a one off gift or to regular monthly gifts. In both cases, where appropriate, individuals have been encouraged to use the HMRC Gift Aid scheme.

Grants

To provide the finance to cover set up of new activity and capital costs grants are sought. During the year a number of unconditional Grants were made to assist GFL through the Covid-19 emergency. Continued gift in kind has been given by Royal Borough of Greenwich by providing GFL with premises to operate as our warehouse and a vehicle to replace a previous van that was stolen. This van was gifted to GFL towards the year end.

Events

No special events were organised during the year. However, a number of others were arranged on behalf of GFL, such as Carol Singing.

Churches

We continue to encourage churches to commit to a monthly contribution to cover operational cost.

Donors

GFL recognise that many individuals, churches and organisations support the foodbank financially. Many of the individuals do so anonymously, however, we wish to register our thanks and gratitude to all those who have made a contribution. We also enjoy cash given by Tesco PLC and ASDA though their Top-up schemes.

i eee TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 eeEe Also, we want to recognise the support given by:

Chariton Central Residents Association, Barnfield Residents Association Barclays PLC., London City Airport, Davy & Co., ESI and Fairview Homes Indigo Trust, GLC Trust, and Watkins Foundation

Volunteer Time

We recognise that a significant contribution has been made by our volunteer base giving of their time. We have estimated the value to us of this time.

Total Hours donated by volunteers: 17,024 hours with a value of £243,691 (2019 - 19,128 hours value £267,792)

b. ACTIVITIES FOR ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES

Warehousing, food collection and distribution

The warehouse activities have successfully been transferred to the new Shootershill site and the new storage system has been fully implemented. Relationships have been established to synergistic food based charities as alternative users of food items that GFL cannot use. This has the result of minimising our wastage.

During the period we have continued to maintain the number of public donation points in civic buildings and in major supermarkets. The relationships with Tesco and ASDA are particularly valuable and unique because they pass to us in cash the estimated profit of items donated via their store.

The regular Harvest programme with the schools in the borough was cancelled this year as a result of Covid-19 and the abundance of food received from other sources. This has reduced the number of requests from schools to lead assemblies to create awareness of the work of GFL.

Metrics: 131,649 Kg (2019 — 80,422 Kg) of food came in; 87,440 Kg (2019 — 84,423 Kg) of food was distributed.

Welcome Centres

The Welcome Centres have been closed during the Covid-19 emergency. All locations reopened, whilst complying with local Covid-19 guidelines,except Thamesmead A by year end. Staffing levels have decreased because of many being classed as vulnerable. During the year Thamesmead B moved to opening for two session per week. This recognises the volume of client need in the area.

Metrics: 4,855 (2019 — 4,862) adults and 3,911 (2019 3,922) children were fed giving a total of 8,766 (2019 8,784) people fed. This shows a slight decrease over the previous year.

Voucher Holders

The programme of rationalisation of VHs by removing redundant and/or duplicate agencies while retaining coverage across the borough and balanced representation was halted during the Covid-19 emergency. At the close of the period there were 212 (2019 221) registered VHs. During the Covid-19 emergency an email referral system was introduced. Coincident with the reopening of the Welcome Centres VHs were transferred to the Trussel Trust e-referral system rather than return to paper vouchers as before.

Metrics: 3,833 (2019 — 4,571) Vouchers were issued and 3,323 (2019 — 3,461) Vouchers were redeemed.

Affiliations

Greenwich Foodbank Limited was commissioned by the Borough Deans of Greenwich and operates as a “franchise” of the Trussel Trust Foodbank model.

c. MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN TO FURTHER THE CHARITY'S PURPOSES FOR PUBLIC BENEFIT

GFL’s focus is to support the most disadvantaged in our community, especially those who do not have resources to withstand acute Covid -19 crisis. The number of referrals we have fulfilled this period (3323) would indicate that we have supported approximately 2800 households, about 2.8% of households in the borough. Every client who visits GFL (in normal times) is invited relax and enjoy refreshments while their referral is being processed, during this time volunteers often are able to signpost the client to further help. The aim is not only to reduce subsequent visits but also to minimise the time the client experiences the crisis.

During this period, we have experienced an increase in the number of clients visiting because they have no recourse to public funds. Separate referral guidelines have been established to address the uniqueness of this crisis and compliance with the Covid-19 guidelines.

GFL participates in a number of initiatives, collaborations and reviews related to food poverty in the borough. GFL is well connected to local Members of Parliament and The Royal Borough of Greenwich Members and Officers to advocate for change on behalf of our clients.

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the advice contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives, and in planning future activities. Evidence of public benefit is contained throughout this report. In particular those sections that quantify distribution of emergency food to those in crisis within the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

Achievements and performance

a. KEY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

We met all of our financial commitments during the period, with all payments made in good time. Management of income and expenses yielded a surplus this period. We have reasonable expectation that this will support expected growth in demand for our service in the future periods.

b. REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

We managed the centralised storage, sorting and packing of food. We operated the network of Welcome Centres. We stabilised the voucher holder community to give maintain demographic and geographic coverage. We met all the demands for food and built an optimum level of stock to ensure efficient flow through the warehouse and distribution. We generated sufficient income to cover all costs and to maintain a surplus for

semana memes meee TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020

entrance into the following period. We maintained two vehicles for food collection and distribution. We also faced two additional challenges as detailed below, and these achievements couldn't’ have happened without the dedication of staff and volunteers.

COVID-19

Activities up to 23rd March 2020 were as normal. However, with the advent of the Covid-19 emergency, we experienced a significant impact to most aspects of our work.

Many of our volunteers were deemed to be in the vulnerable group (over 70s) and they were advised to withdraw. Social distancing measures meant that Welcome Centres could not operate in a “face-to-face” mode and only limited numbers of volunteers could work simultaneously in the warehouse. To overcome these restrictions and to continue to be able to serve those in need it was decided to switch to delivery model. To support this and to facilitate referral agency staff who were working from home an emergency email referral system was developed and introduced. A partnership with Greenwich Mutual Aid, who provided delivery drivers, was established. This way of working continued up to September 2020 when we cautiously began to switch back to our traditional collection model.

In the early weeks of the emergency we experienced a significant decrease in food donations linked to food shortages in the supermarkets. In response to this challenge we created accounts with key wholesalers and special arrangements with some supermarkets to buy essential items. Eventually food supplies returned to normal coupled with weekly deliveries direct from Tesco and increased giving from the public which totally reversed the situation. We ended with a significant surplus as a consequence.

Another feature of the emergency was that we saw a significant increase in monetary gifts, both from organisations and individuals. Initially this was driven by our need to purchase food as mentioned above. However, the increased giving persisted throughout the emergency. We ended the year with a high level of funds. An individual was motivated to establish a Go-Fund-Me page driven by social media that raised in excess of £20,000.

Many other food-based services, statutory and voluntary, emerged during the emergency. The Royal Borough of Greenwich (RBG) established a Community Hub to triage residents in need and signpost them to appropriate support. GFL participated in this development along with other agencies in the borough. As a consequence of the success of the Community Hub we experienced a small decrease in foodbank usage. This is reflected in the metrics provided elsewhere in this report.

It is with great sadness that we report the death of John Hegg from Covid-19 infection. John was one of the original volunteers at the Blackheath centre and served us and the community faithfully.

RELOCATION

During the first quarter of the year RBG gave GFL notice to quit the premises at Orangery Lane that housed our main storage facility. This notice was linked to a promise by RBG to provide suitable alternative accommodation. A number of potential sites were initially offered that for various reasons were unsuitable. Eventually the exHorticultural Centre at Shootershill was viewed and although smaller than Orangery Lane had many other benefits and we believed by changing our storage method we could make the building work and agreed to move.

The Covid-19 emergency occurred during these negotiations and delayed the move to July 2020. In the months leading up to the move we implemented a new more compact storage system using Dollie and Crates rather than shelving which had been employed hitherto. However, when the time came to move, our stock level had increased threefold and additional storage was required. This was met by the provision of four containers on site and temporary storage at St Saviour’s Church, Middle Park.

Financial review

a. GOING CONCERN

After making appropriate enquiries, including the possible long term impact of Covid-19 might have, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.

Structure, governance and management

a. CONSTITUTION

The company is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 17/10/2012 .

The company is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 17/10/2012 and was granted charitable status on 13 May 2013 as charity number 1152007.

The principal object of the company is the relief of poverty in The Royal Borough of Greenwich in particular but not exclusively by the operation of a foodbank within a Christian ethos.

b. METHOD OF APPOINTMENT OR ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

The management of the company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Articles of Association.

c. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE AND DECISION MAKING

The Trustees set the strategic direction of the organisation and collectively make decisions that determine the strategy. The Trustees have devolved the day-to-day decision making to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) who has the operational responsibility to implement the strategy.

GREENWICH FOODBANK LTD (A Company Limited by Guarantee)

eae ee nnn nnn LLnL, NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020

eee 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Greenwich Foodbank Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

1.2 Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

In preparing these accounts, the Trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required.

No restatements were required.

1.3 Company status

The company is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page 1. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company.

1.4 Income

All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the company is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the company has been notified of the executor's intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the company, or the company is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. Donated facilities are included at the value to the company where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020

  1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use.

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the company's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the company apportioned to charitable activities.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised.

A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities incorporating Income and Expenditure Account.

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Plant and machinery - Reducing balance 25%
Motor vehicles - Reducingbalance25%

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

1.8 Stocks and work in progress

Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

1.9 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

1.10 Cash at Bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.11 Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges.

1.12 Pensions

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.

1.13 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
