**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Structure, Governance, and Management of the Trust**
## Background
Ladywood Community Project registered as a charity in November 2013 . It had previously operated as a multi-disciplinary support agency operated by Birmingham City Council funded staff. It had been in existence since 1986 and is a well - known and trusted resource in the area and is seen as a first port of call to residents who need help.
Poverty continues to be a major issue for our residents. Latest figures, published by End Poverty campaigners show that Ladywood is the third poorest area in the country with 54% of children (17,938) growing up in poverty. Furthermore, rates of Universal credit have not kept up with inflation and once the temporary uplift of £20 per week was removed in October 2021 monthly rates especially for single claimants were 20-25% lower if compared with rates in 2013.
Ladywood is an area of high social housing and private rented with many residents working in at zero hours rates. They were very adversely affected by the loss of low wage service jobs and many struggle to find adequate work to bring them out of poverty.
The Ladywood Community project endeavours to improve the lives of local people in poverty or financial hardship and help, not only when they have a crisis but tackle the isolation and stress that poverty brings. We encourage families to feel part of a wider community that can offer friendships, shared leisure and be an active part of our team to address issues that worry them. We achieve this through practical, educational, physical, and financial interventions for those most in need of support.
We provide assistance to those who are in a crisis by giving emergency help with gas/electricity, helping with school uniforms, bus fares, nappies and pre-loved children’s clothes and toys, referring to food bank, benefits advice, credit union, letting them use our facilities- washing machine, dryer, cooker/microwave and listening to them when they are upset, in hardship, depression or anxiety or just in need of someone to talk to.
We offer them support and encourage them to drop in and use our garden, kitchen and lounge, have free refreshments, meet other families, get help and advice, join one of our groups or activities or go on our trips. We run a popular play and stay group giving parents and children opportunities to learn through play, craft and trips to enhance children’s experiences and encourage development.
In the school holidays (summer and Christmas) we work in partnership with the local food bank to provide families with food parcels and give supermarket vouchers to obtain fresh food as a way of helping those families whose children would normally get free school meals or those families who are on low income or burdened with debt.
In the summer we have weekly activities and usually 3 trips, including one to the seaside. All activities are free and trips are heavily subsidised. We hold community events often in partnership with other local agencies to help people feel part of a community and not so isolated. At Christmas we hold a party for up to 150 children aged 0-11years. We have an entertainer, DJ, crafts, and food. Santa sees the children in his Grotto and there are presents for all the children. We take over the whole of the community centre and are helped by 20+ volunteers. It is very popular with local parents and children.
We have had funding from “Share my language” to provide tablets and internet to those families whose children have been disadvantaged by not being able to access online

**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
learning and we have also secured a large grant from Celebrating Communities fund from Birmingham City Council to put on an event in the summer of 2022 to bring enthusiasm and excitement for the Commonwealth Games which will be hosted in Birmingham this year.
We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of our local businesses and local trusts and churches. We have longstanding CSR partners who have such a great understanding of our aims. They have given us extra help and kept in very regular touch with us.
We would like to thank BHSF, Gowling WLG, Calthorpe trust, Argent, Avison Young, Abacus, Paradise circus, WPR, Bayfield Trust, J. Hudson (Acme Whistles), LoveBrum, Hydropower, The Vine, Turley, Headline Communications, Church Alive, Unitarian church, Cambridge Rd Methodists, Baron Davenports trust, Birmingham City council share my language grant, Local job centre and Property for Kids
Many individuals have sent us money too, including those who donate monthly. We wish to thank Roisin Mathers, Mike Gibbs, Peter Maskell, James Calladine, Geoff Savage. Many individuals who donate to Just Giving we cannot identify because we do not pay for reporting rights.
## Employees and volunteers
Ladywood Community Project employs one part time member of staff as a family support worker (30 hours a week), one admin assistant (6 hours), and our co-ordinator is an upaid volunteer (30 hours a week).
We have appointed another family support worker (30 hours) who started on 1/4/22.
The day to day running of the project is overseen by an Advisory committee which reports to the Trustees. They meet every 6-8 weeks and are made up of local community members and members of local organisations.
We have received a number of grants this year to help with our anti-poverty initiatives as well as a bigger fund from Tudor Trust to support our core costs and salaries. This has been granted for 3 years thereby providing an assurance of the continuance of our service.
Based on this we have employed 2 new staff since last year. One is an admin assistant for 6 hours and the took up the post of family support worker (30 hours) at the beginning of April.
The addition of new staff is crucial as we see the demands for our services increase as more and more people have fallen from the “just about managing” to being in financial crisis.
We have been very fortunate to have an outstanding volunteer in John Pemberton who was a former resident. He runs his own business as an IT consultant and helps us with everything digital to make our work run smoothly. He is very responsive especially when we need help and has been a great asset this year.
We also have a number of regular volunteers who help us throughout the year particularly when we have events. We wish to thank Margaret, Annabel, Rachel, Sam, Patricia, Bernie, Bram, Gill, Kath as well as all the volunteers from the businesses who wrap presents at Christmas and generally help us whenever we ask.

**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## **Objectives, Activities, Achievements and Performance**
To offer relief for people in financial hardship, by providing grants, items and services, including advice and signposting to agencies and organisations.
## **Our work 2021/22**
## Wrigglers Play and Stay
This is held on Monday mornings 10.00-11.45 and is well attended. Children of 3 and under attend with their parent/s and engage in creative play/cooking/activities. There are outside trips to local places like the reservoir or local leisure centre for swimming.
There are, on average, 12 families who attend. This is a group well represented by the wide diversity of cultures living in Ladywood. We celebrate these different cultures with foods and stories. The group helps to promote harmony and understanding between the parents as well as their children and a great support network has built up. It is a chance for parents to form friendships and help with isolation especially if they are the only adult in the household.
We held the group virtually through the various lockdowns. Many parents struggled to access this because they did not have equipment. Sometimes their children were accessing school lessons through their phone. We applied to “Share my language” fund from BCC and bought tablets and pay as you go data so that all members of the group could join in the Wrigglers online activities.
Parents are also given opportunities to learn not only from each other but occasionally from outside trainers. We recently had a paediatric first aid session delivered to 15 parents.
## Fuel Poverty
Many families are struggling to maintain a constant fuel supply in their homes and with fuel prices rising, this is increasingly taking more and more of their weekly budget.
In the winter there is extra pressure on heating costs and in the summer months the children are at home and families use more electricity and gas for cooking. The upcoming increases in the costs of fuel are particularly worrying and for many of our residents, self-disconnection from supply will be a painful reality.
For several years, we have raised money to help individuals and families in greatest need keep their supply on particularly if a financial crisis arises due to a delay in benefit or an unexpected cost arising. During the lockdown of last year, we joined the Fuel Foundation and are now able to give help without cash. A code is sent to the user’s phone which can be used to top up their prepayment meter. Residents receive £30 in summer and £49 in winter.
Families must be referred to the scheme from a money advisor, credit union or other professional such as health visitor, social care or support worker, advice staff at Birmingham food bank.
**During 21/22 we gave crisis help for fuel by making 75 referrals to the Fuel Foundation.**

**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## Holiday Hunger
We know that parents struggle to feed their children during the summer, Easter and Christmas school breaks.
During term times many children have free school meals. Parents have not only extra food costs during the summer months but extra fuel costs.
For many years we have been giving extra support during holiday periods and whenever the family are in need.
We have had a longstanding partnership with Birmingham Central Foodbank and Central Baby Bank and target help for up to 100 families in the summer period.
Families in need are referred from local schools, children’s trust support workers, and debt and money advisors. In this way we know that we are reaching the most disadvantaged members of our community.
We give them vouchers to take to the Food bank to pick up bags of food (enough for 3 days, mainly dried and tinned) and we have given £50 supermarket vouchers so that fresh items can supplement/accommodate their diet. Those with babies also get help with nappies and wipes from the Baby bank
## **At Easter 2021 we helped 98 families - that is 113 adults and 215 children.**
## **In Summer 2021 we helped 60 families - that is 81 adults and 147 children.**
## **Between Xmas and March 2022, we helped 120 families - 166 adults and 251 children.**
## Low-Cost Trips
Many parents dread the long summer, Easter and Christmas school breaks because there is a lack of affordable activities and to take children out costs extra money and many parents struggle to cope with these expenses. Parents sometimes feel upset that they cannot give holidays and outings to their children, and this undermines their expectations of what a good parent should provide. Relationships can sometimes suffer, and it is not always a positive time for families.
Since the project has been operating, we have always tried to offer very low-cost trips and activities. We want to help families to enjoy their time together and with the rest of their community. It is important for children because we all need positive memories in our childhood.
We raise money to put towards trips and can provide outings at low cost and all activities are free.
We charged families £2 per seat for our trips which included all entrance to parks. This enabled even the poorest in our community to participate.
We also included a lunch bag which contained a sandwich, drink, crisps, fruit and biscuit. We asked The Real Junk Food to help us make up the bags.
This year we have had two trips to the seaside (Weston-Super-Mare), Hatton Park, Black Country Museum and West Midlands Safari park.
6
**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
We are grateful to the Variety Club for giving us tickets for free entry into the Safari Park and reduced cost wristbands for the rides. We were able to take 40 residents in the October half term.
## Activities
We offer a number of in-house craft activities during the summer and half term breaks.
We were also part of other funding bids by the JQDT where groups were invited down to make pumpkin lanterns to be displayed in Key Hill cemetery.
We also had a wall hanging project with RBSA who paid an artist to work with us. A group of older adults went to their studio and hand printed outline Christmas designs. These formed the basis of further free form hand painting by children of school age and even the under 3’s joined in. These works of art were sewn into panels that were displayed in Santa’s grotto at the Christmas parties.
All activities were free and enjoyed by our residents.
In reviewing their activities, the trustees have referred to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.
## Christmas Parties and Help
Ladywood is an area with a high incidence of child poverty and many of our families would not be able to afford a visit to see Father Christmas. Our parties are therefore very popular, and this year was no exception.
Last year we were unable to put on our usual children’s parties so this year we wanted to make them as special and safe as we could. Normally we would hold one party for 150 children, but we wanted to observe social distancing. We decided to hold three smaller parties.
We made our grotto magical with beautiful lights and decorations. We created wall hangings, hand printed and decorated by our parents and children and with the help and support of RBSA.
## Wrigglers Party - Under 3’s
This was for the children who attend our weekly stay and play group. We held it in the Boughton Hall at the community centre and had the usual games, pass the parcel, party food and dancing. We had an appearance from the Elf and Santa gave presents to all the children and let them sit on his sleigh with their parents for photos.
## **20 Children attended with their 20 parents.**
Parties held on Saturday 18th and Monday 20th December. These were for children aged 4- 11.
We held these at the community centre. We had an entertainer (Maddom) who did magic tricks and balloon sculptures, a DJ for each day, who organised games and dancing, a local face painter and the children made crowns with our extensive craft supplies. Santa was in his grotto for the children to visit and were given presents. A lunch pack with a sandwich, drink, fruit and crisps was given when they left. Their siblings were also given a book and chocolates.
7
**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
We had a prize draw (there was a free ticket issued to each family) and 10 families won a hamper (donated by Acme Whistles).
## **In total 123 children attended with 78 parents.**
We were greatly helped by a team of local volunteers and would like to thank staff from BHSF who wrapped all the presents, Julian and Adrian from Galliard who helped put up the grotto and sorted out the lighting, Clarkeprint who printed all the posters and leaflets for free and Bram, Rachel, Katerina, Pat, Kath, Gill, Margaret, Bernie, Sanna, Suzanne, Annabel, Paul and Winnie who made the day one for all the families to remember.
Our parties could not have taken place had it not been for the generosity of our funders.
We are very grateful to them.
All the children really enjoyed themselves and for many it was their first traditional Christmas party.
## Christmas Help
This year we again asked for referrals from local schools, children’s trust support workers and debt and money advisors of the families or individuals who would be in need this Christmas. In this way we know that we are reaching the most disadvantaged members of our community. This year we gave 100 families:
- £50 voucher to be used at Tesco or Morrisons;
- A cuddly large throw to keep them warm;
- A family size tub of chocolates;
- A voucher to attend the local foodbank to pick up 3 days’ worth of tinned and dried food.
We are very grateful to our funders again for rising to the challenge especially Property for Kids.
## Help with School Uniform
We know from our many years of working with parents that buying school uniform in the summer is a very difficult and stressful time for parents. This is particularly true when children are moving from Primary to Secondary schools. The cost of clothing with the school logo is very high and require shopping in a specialist uniform shop. Parents struggle financially in the long summer holiday when there are extra food and fuel costs and buying uniform for all your children is daunting. Children need to have the correct kit so that they can feel confident particularly when it is a new school they are attending.
We started the uniform fund many years ago. Parents are referred by schools, children’s trust workers, and debt and money advice professionals. We purchase the items that the children need online to provide a bespoke service. If funds allow, we spend up to £100 per family where children moving to a new secondary school and up to £50 for families whose children are at primary school. The families who are referred often need extra help because they have no recourse to public funds, are in debt or all their children have had to move school because of homelessness or other problems.
This year we received £2,000 to fund our uniform scheme when we came first in a campaign run by LoveBrum. **This helped us to purchase school uniform for 63 children/ 43 families at a cost of £2,005.**
8
**LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## Referrals to Birmingham City Mission
We are very pleased to be one of the referrals agents for City Mission. They deliver toys to families at Christmas and offer a bespoke service. We register the family details and they deliver to their home. The quality of the toys is outstanding and really helps families at such an expensive and often stressful time. **This year we referred 249 children** .
## Hardship Fund
This is a fund that was secured by our Councillors Albert Bore and Kath Hartley. We had a partnership of Trident Reach, Suited for Success, Inner Circle Credit Union and WPM.
The fund is to assist those who are homeless or at reach of losing their properties or finding that they cannot live there because of lack of facilities. In the past we have helped with basic items of furniture such as mattresses, fridges, gas/electric, prescription costs, bus fare, etc.
**This year we have supported 7 residents who did not have basic facilities in their home. We bought 3 cookers, a bed, 2 mobile phones as well as helping with bus fares and other emergencies. We spent £922.**
## Household Support Fund
In February we were one of the agencies involved in helping benefit claimants to claim the household support fund which was a grant given by central government for local authorities to help those in need. **We made 100+ applications to the fund on behalf of our community.**
## **Financial Review**
Our main source of income this year was £54,542 received in grants. We also received a number of generous donations in this financial year totalling £43,509 from individuals and community businesses.
Our total income of £98,051 (2021: £68,161) in the year was an 44% increase on the prior year.
Total expenditure in the year of £51,101 (2021: £37,731) was an 35% increase on the prior year.
Total unrestricted funds held at 31 March 2022 and available for use towards the general objectives of the charity were £36,588 (2021: £30,991).
It was concluded that the level of unrestricted funds at the yearend is sufficient to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and enable it to continue its current activities should income decline or costs rise significantly.
Restricted funds held at 31 March 2022 which are to be used for the specific projects they were donated for were £49,295 (2021: £18,719).
Designated funds held at 31 March 2022 (which are unrestricted funds ear marked for a specific project by the board of Trustees) were £10,776 (2021: £nil).
Funds totalling £9,379 were transferred from restricted to designated as it came to light during the year that these funds were not restricted.

## **LADYWOOD COMMUNITY PROJECT TRUSTEE’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
## Reserves Policy
The charity has few overheads and is not locked into a lease agreement. Its antipoverty initiatives are funded through small grants specific to the needs of those in poverty. Any unrestricted reserves are spent on salaries and other costs, such as stationery, monthly rent, insurance and other running costs.
The trustees have decided that the charity need to keep in reserve a sum to cover any/all redundancy payments. This would be in the event -
- The charity had to close because of financial restraints;
- The post was no longer relevant to the aims of the charity
For this year the amount would be £10,000. This will be reviewed annually.
## Trustee Fees/Expenses
No fees or expenses were received by charity trustees during the year.
