## **Tendring Eldercare - Chairman’s Report** 

This past year has shown me just how incredible our staff, volunteers and the wider community can be when our neighbours are in vital need of support. 

I am beyond grateful to every individual who has supported our charity and given their time throughout lockdown to help those in need and help with the redevelopment of Kingston House. 

This past year has been a challenge in many ways. We have continued to help those that were in isolation due to the Covid-19 pandemic and our Food Bank continues to be a huge success. We have expanded to provide prescription pick-ups and we have been able to provide personalised food shops and parcels. 

We are extremely proud that Tendring Eldercare was awarded The High Sheriff of Essex Certificate ‘in recognition of great and valuable services to the community during the Covid19 Pandemic.’ The charity has also received some wonderful press coverage on local, national and international news platforms. In December 2021 I was honoured by The Royal Family with an invitation to attend a Royal Carol Service at Westminster Abbey. This was the highlight of the charity’s year and the awards and honours only go to show the amazing work this organisation can do when called upon by the community of Tendring. 

Following lockdown being relaxed, we were able to reopen our Day Centre. This for us was hugely exciting. Our clients had been isolated in their homes since we closed in March 2020 and everyone was excited to return. 

Our finances have been extremely tight and sadly we lost several of our staff members due to the pressure caused by the pandemic and colleagues choosing to retire. 

We will, as always do our best to support the older community of Tendring. 

## **Edward G A Bell** 

## **Chairman** 



## **Our Purpose And Activities** 

Our purpose continues to be the same as set out in our constitution which includes: 

1. To relieve elderly residents in Tendring who are in need, by providing services or facilities calculated to relieve the needs of such persons. 

2. To preserve and protect the health of those caring for elderly people by offering a respite service. 

3. To relieve financial hardship and poor health or sickness among elderly persons. 

Tendring Eldercare is a service designed to support those and their families who need care and respite across the district of Tendring. We operate an Eldercare Day Centre 5 days a week based in Kingston House, Clacton-on-Sea. 

We operate a transport service that collect residents from across the District and bring them into our care where they receive a day filled with activities designed to both stimulate their minds and increase their physical activity. 

Our care staff are all fully qualified and are led by our highly experienced Day Centre Manager who can support them with their daily needs. 

Our Day Centre offers a nutritional, 2 course meal as well as Entertainment, Shower Service, Chiropodist and Hair Dressing facilities all from our Kingston House site. 

We also run a weekly Luncheon Club held at Little Clacton Village Hall, a weekly Shopping Trip and Day Trips. 

Whilst in our care it is our objective to maintain the wellbeing of our clients and to support their families with the much needed respite they deserve. 

## **Achievements And Performance** 

We have found that our Day Centre and the services it provides make a huge difference to the residents of Tendring and their families. As well as our Day Centre we hold two weekly outings, one being a ‘shopping’ trip where we take a group of clients to the supermarket and assist them which encourages their independence and the other outing being an evening meal, held once a week at various locations across the district. 

On a Thursday we continue to run our weekly Luncheon Club which proves very popular and provides a group of lonely individuals with the much needed attention they deserve and also provides them with a hot, nutritionally balanced meal. – RUNNING FOR OVER 35 YEARS 

As our services continue we find we are a service which is needed and we strive to enhance our offerings and add further services. These services we provide work in tandem with many other organisations to maintain a community spirit. 

## **Financial Review** 



At the end of this financial period we have had a total income of £126,982 and an expenditure of £219,292. 

## **Investment Powers And Policy** 

Tendring Eldercare currently have no investments however this is something the Board of Trustees would consider in the future should the occasion arise. 

## **Reserves Policy & Going Concern** 

Our reserves policy is to try to hold 6 months of monthly running costs. We estimate this amount to be £90,000. These reserves are designed to be used in the event that the charity needs them to continue the day to day running of the charity. 

## **Plans For Future Periods** 

At Tendring Eldercare we continue to hold a long term plan to purchase our own premises which we can use to extend the services we offer in our Day Centre. 

If we were to have our own premises we will be able to provide our services during the evenings and weekend and dramatically change the way we provide care to the community. 

## **Investment Powers & Policy** 

The CIO has power to do anything which is calculated to further its object(s) or is conducive or incidental to doing so. In particular, the CIO’s powers include power to: 

(1) borrow money and to charge the whole or any part of its property as 

security for the repayment of the money borrowed. The CIO must comply as 

appropriate with sections 124 and 125 of the Charities Act 2011 if it wishes to mortgage land; 

(2) buy, take on lease or in exchange, hire or otherwise acquire any property and to maintain and equip it for use; 

(3) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the property belonging to the CIO. In exercising this power, the CIO must comply as appropriate with sections 117 and 119-123 of the Charities Act 2011; 

(4) employ and remunerate such staff as are necessary for carrying out the work of the CIO. The CIO may employ or remunerate a charity trustee only to the extent that it is permitted to do so by clause 6 (Benefits and payments to charity trustees and connected persons) and provided it complies with the conditions of those clauses; 

(5) deposit or invest funds, employ a professional fund-manager, and arrange for the investments or other property of the CIO to be held in the name of a 



nominee, in the same manner and subject to the same conditions as the trustees 

of a trust are permitted to do by the Trustee Act 2000. 

We do not currently have any money invested anywhere. 

## **Pay Policy For Senior Staff** 

Our principles are to pay our staff a fair wage that is competitive within the charity sector, proportionate to the complexity of each role, and responsible in line with our charitable objectives. 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees have a risk management strategy which is owned by them and is now an agenda item at each board meeting. 

## **TENDRING ELDERCARE** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

I report on the accounts of Tendring Eldercare for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 12. 

## Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner 

The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) but that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity. 

- Commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- To state whether any matters have come to my attention. 

## Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considerations of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

## Independent examiner's statement 

In the course of my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which 



gives me cause to believe that in any material respect: the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the 

- form and content of the accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
