Lindap ( Registered Charity 115638)
Reports and accounts for the year to 31st of December 2022
Charity objectives and activities
Charity objectives and activities Lindap‘s objective is to help people with disabilities by providing devices or equipment designed and made especially for them where nothing suitable is provided by the NHS social services or commercial sources. We operate throughout the modern county of Lincolnshire except for the extreme South around Spalding and Stamford
Our work is carried out entirely by volunteers mostly retired engineers and craft people operating from their homes with some but not all have workshops. They design and make whatever will suit each individuals needs best.
Much of it helps make the normal activities of daily life possible or less difficult or less painful while some help clients maintain or take up hobbies and leisure activities.
As well as being functional the equipment is designed as far as possible to look good in clients homes. All the equipment is provided free of charge.
Much of the work is requested by and done in conjunction with occupational therapists and other professionals in the NHS and social services who add their expertise in disability to ours in practical problem-solving. We also accept a request for help directly from the public.
Achievements and performance.
2022 thankfully returned to our normal activities as COVID-19 diminished in importance. We achieved 79 referrals and completed 82 projects 3 carried over from previous year.
Membership
This year we have had one additional members and non has left.
Plans for the future.
‘ s We still believe there is substantial unmet demand for Lindap help and our intention is to supply a more comprehensive service throughout the county. We are limited by the small number of active volunteers. Unfortunately these are not spread homogeneously over the county and we particularly need further support in the south and east.
We have a process for presentations to facilitate recruitment. This will not be a quick process as each individual needs training and mentoring.
This year we have returned to active publicity and have made a number of presentations and radio interviews.
Governance
The trustees who serve throughout 2022 are all active or past volunteers for Lindap and all the active volunteers are trustees. For a small organisation this is felt to provide the most simple and democratic structure. Most operational matters are decided in regular meetings of the volunteers which are chaired by a trustee and have been authorised to take all decisions covered by the operations manual. We are a non-discriminatory organisation and take referrals from anyone in the county driven purely by need.
Lindap’s constitution follows the charity commissions foundation model for CIOs and was adopted on the 21st of March 2014. The trustees have observed the commissions public benefit guidance in exercising their powers and duties acting in accordance with the charities objective.
Finances
Lindap depends entirely on donations to find its work the main cost of materials for the project travel expenses and insurance.
The accounts attached show a healthy fund. We have allowed this to enlarge somewhat as our expenses have been reflected in inflation and especially the cost of materials and travel.
Our reserves policy is to have sufficient funds in hand to cover one years expenditure. At the end of the year our total funds carried forward are adequate for this current year
