Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

A charity with a Christian ethos acting for the relief of poverty or distress for persons in, but not limited to, the London Borough Of Havering, United Kingdom, who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress by reason of their social and/or economic circumstances by providing emergency food, debt advice, adult’s and children’s clothing and other household items, interview and employability mentoring and general advice.

In planning our activities for the year the Directors have had in mind the Charities Commission guidance on public benefit. During the year the Charity continued to manage a Trussell Trust Foodbank which is part of the Trussell Trust national network of Foodbanks. The amount of food distributed was on a par with the previous year,and as such has justified the continued need for this charitable activity. A team of volunteer helpers has been successfully maintained to enable successful operation, The charity encourages former clients and people with lived experience of poverty to become volunteers. A Job Club is run by The Charity with the assistance and guidance of Christians Against Poverty (CAP). The club provides mentoring and training for job seekers as well as identifying other needs, which resulted in sign-posting to other organisations who were able to assist with debt counselling, home budgeting training and personal counselling. In addition to the above, the Charity employs a Debt Centre Manager & a Debt Coach and runs a Christians Against Poverty (CAP) Debt Centre in partnership with other local stakeholders.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

The project continued to employ a full time Operations Manager but it is acknowledged with gratitude that the functioning of the Foodbank, Job Club, and Debt Cenre could not take place without volunteer assistance.

The OM also manages Six paid part time staff members; Job Club Manager, Job Club Assistant, Fund Raising/Admin Officer, and Volunteer Coordinator, Debt Centre Manager, Debt Centre Coach

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

• policy on grantmaking;

• policy programme related investment;

• contribution made by volunteers.

The Charity does not have any investments, all income is used for operations and any surplus is held on deposit for use in operations.

The Charity does not exist in order to make grants but alongside its own operational activities it does support other charities whose activities are in accord with our own Objects Clause. The policy is to make grants or donations where there is a need and when income allows, but in total to limit to no more than 10% of unrestricted income.

ection C Notes to the accounts Note 1 Basis of preparation This section should be completed by all charities. 1.1 Basis of accounting These accounts have been prepared on an accruals basis on historic cost and there are no investments. 1.2 Change in basis of accounting There has been no change to the accounting policies (valuation rules and methods of accounting) since last year. 1.3 Changes to previous accounts No changes have been made to accounts for previous years. A presentational change has been made though., this is the separation of Designated Funds out from wthin the General Fund on the Balance Sheet. Designated Funds remain part of the General Fund, but they are shown separately for greater clarity- CC17a (Excel} 0610512025

ection C Notes to the accounts Note 2 Accounting policies INCOMING RESOURCES Recognition of incoming resources These are induded in the Statement of Financial Activities {SoFA) when.. the charity becomes entitled to the resources; the trustees are wrtually certain they V￿11 receive the resources,. and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA. Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. Additionally, Where the period of the grant falls entirely in the accounting year it is recognised in full. if the period extends beyond the year end, the relevant proportion is deferred. Incoming resources with related expenditure Grants and donations Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Contractual income and performance related grants Donated services and facilities Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA at the time of reclaim receipt. The charity did not receive any contract income or perfomiance related income or grants. These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charty is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees, annual report. Volunteer help EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources. Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of trustee meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on govemance or constitutional matters. Where the charity gives a grant wtth conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided. such grants are only recognised in the SOFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to the grant vthich remain in the control of the charity. The charity does not include the value of food donated as an income item since it does not represent a cost that the charity has avoided. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent wth the use of resources, e.g. allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Govemance costs Grants with performance onditions Grants payable without perforniance conditions Food donations Support Costs ASSETS Tangible fixed assets for use These are capitalised rfthey can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They by charity are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt. Stocks and work in progress These are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Donated food stock is not valued on the balance sheet as the stock is held for free distribution. CC17a (Excel) 0610512025
