Objectives and activities
The purposes of the charity are the relief of poverty in the Manchester Central area by:
-
the provision of food parcels containing non-perishable, balanced and nutritious foodstuffs and other consumables to individuals in need.
-
the provision of a signposting service, ensuring individuals in need have access to information about the services available to them.
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives, in planning future activities, and setting the policies for the year.
Trustee Review of the Year
The financial year July 2023 - June 2024 brought new challenges that have given the foodbank fresh and ongoing impetus to deliver the support needed to our clients. The year was centred around the ongoing cost of living crisis, which created once again record demand for services.
Our community of donors gave us unprecedented support, allowing us to distribute approximately 5817 vouchers, equalling 81,227 kgs of food in 12 months in our standard foodbank parcels and routine operations. This supported 16648 people in Manchester experiencing financial and food insecurity, including 9430 adults and 7218 children.
We have had some changes in personnel throughout the year but retain a headcount of 8 members of staff and approximately 20 regular volunteers. We are seeking to grow our volunteer base over the next year with a wider variety of roles.
Plans for Future Periods
After a year of staff turn-over in key positions, as well as outstanding growth in demand, we will be spending the next year consolidating our position, size, and services. Our objectives for the forthcoming year will be to continue delivery of foodbank services to the communities we currently support. We recognise that during this time of continuous increase in cost of living, that our priorities firmly remain in delivery emergency food relief to our clients.
We remain committed to our campaigns Pathfinder programmes partnered with Trussell Trust. We are now entering into the final year of our 3-year partnership. As the projects and programmes of this partnership come to conclusion, our focus will be moving towards legacy impact and creating positive change in our communities that is sustained beyond the remit of direct funding in such projects such as Healthy Start Voucher benefit uptake campaign, Can You Hear Me Now? And Greater Manchester Equal Start. Network.
Some of the grant income is for foodbank partners within the 3-year partnership (separate legal entities). We have seen a 74% increase in operational costs year-on-year, largely due to the delivery of the campaigns Pathfinder programmes, increased food costs and increased staff costs.

Investment powers and policy
The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the charity, have kept available funds in a current account.
Review of the year
The results for the year and the charity's financial position at the end of the year are shown in the attached financial statements.
During the year the Charity had income of £582,894 (2023: £643,446) of which £365,391 was restricted (2023: £311,908) and expenditure of £609,071 (2023: £350,340), of which £374,215 was restricted (2023: £100,848). There was an operating deficit of £26,177 (2023: surplus of £293,106) of which a deficit of £8,824 was restricted (2023: surplus of £211,060).
As of 30 June 2024, the Charity had net assets of £550,791 (2023: £576,968) of which £241,363 was restricted (2023: £250,187).
Reserves policy and going concern
The balance held in total unrestricted reserves on 30th June 2024 was £309,428. Contained within this are designated funds of £160,795. Non-designated unrestricted reserves are £148,633 of which £144,937 are free reserves, after allowing for funds tied up in tangible fixed assets.
The trustees aim to maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at a level which equates to approximately six months of unrestricted charitable expenditure. The trustees consider that this level will provide sufficient funds to respond to applications for grants and ensure that support and governance costs are covered.
The Charity's main source of income is grants and donations. The trustees consider that it I to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis and, consequently, the accounts do not include any adjustments that would be necessary if these sources of income should cease. There was a 26% decrease on donations compared to the previous year, due to a downwards donor trend in the charity sector due to cost-of-living issues. Also if there were any significant one-off donations in the previous year we could reference these as they will have skewed the year-on-year figures.
It should be noted that the variance in cash and cash equivalents from 2023 to 2024 is driven largely by a £61k funding decrease (donations) and operational expenses increasing (project cost increase of £201k and food expenditure increase of £55k).
Risk management
The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
Appointment of trustees
New trustees are appointed by existing trustees and serve for a minimum of 1 year and a maximum of 2 years after which they may put themselves forward for re-appointment. The Trust Deed provides for a minimum of 4 trustees, to a maximum of 14 trustees.
At the 6-weekly trustee meetings, the trustees agree on the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Charity, including investment, reserves and risk management policies and performance. The day-totoday administration of the Charity is delegated to the Project Manager.
3
Trustee induction and training
Once appointed new trustees receive a one-to-one induction with the Chair of Trustees or another suitable trustee. They are also given various documents (outlined in our constitution) to ensure that they fully understand their responsibilities and the current status of the charity. The board of trustees conducts periodic skills reviews to identify training needs of current trustees. Within our budget money is set aside for the purpose of training.
Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting principles and then apply them consistently.
-
Observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP.
-
Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
-
Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is appropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provision of the Trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

MANCHESTER CENTRAL FOODBANK
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
For the year ended 30 June 2024
I report on the financial statements of Manchester Central Foodbank for the year ended 30 June 2024, which are set out on pages 6 to 17.
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 of the Charities Act 2022 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a Fellow Member of the Association of Accounting Technicians.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
h examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
h to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
h to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
h the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
h the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
h the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2024
1 Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
2 Basis of accounting
2.1 Basis of preparation
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The accounts 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 October 2019) – Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2022.
Manchester Central Foodbank meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
2.2 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charity reported total unrestricted funds at the year end of £309,428 and has already secured a significant amount of funding for the current year. The trustees are of the view that the immediate future of the charity for the next 12 to 18 months is secure and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.
3 Income
3.1 Recognition of income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the resources, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is more likely than not that the resources will be received and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
3.2 Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by FRS102 SORP or FRS102.
3.3 Grants and donations
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria of income recognition are met.
3.4 Volunteer help
The value of volunteer help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees' annual report.

MANCHESTER CENTRAL FOODBANK NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 30 June 2024
3.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
3.6 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the
4 Expenditure and liabilities
4.1 Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised when it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
4.2 Charitable activities
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of work and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
4.3 Governance and support costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance cost and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
4.4 Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
4.5 Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.
4.6 Provisions for liabilities
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
5 Assets
5.1 Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis, the charity does not currently have any tangible fixed
