Moorland Communi Care Grou Trustees Re ort for the Year Endin 31st Dember 2023 The Trustees present their rewrt and acwunts for thc ycar cndcd 31 D¢c¢mb¢r 2023. The accountg have been prepared in a¢¢ordan¢¢ with the Charities Commission guidance for Independent Examination of Charity Accounts, with the Charity's Governing Docurncnt. Ob'eetives and Activities The objects of the Charity are: to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing >ple living in the towns of Bovcy Tracey, Ashburton and Buckfastleigh, all in Devon. iogether with their adjacent parishes. from becoming socially excluded. relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society. for the purpose of this clause 'socially excluded, means being excluded from society. or part5 of society, as a result of one of more of the following faclors: unemployment- financial hardship- youth or old age. ill health (physi¢al or mental)- Substance abuse or dendencY including alcohol and drugs. discrimination on the grounds of sex, race. disability, eihnic origin, religion, belief, creeil. sexual orientation or gender re-assignment. poor educalional or skills attainment. latIOnShiP and family breakdown- poor housing (that is housing that does not meet basic habitable standards- crime (either as a victim of crime or as an offender rehabilitating into society). Public Benefil The Charity's main activitics and beneficiaries are identified in the review below. The Trusiees confirm that they have referred to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and are satisfied that the organisaiion s aclivilic5 conlom with these requiremenls. All of the harity's activities arc io bcnefit thosc most disadvaniagcd in our arca of bcncfit and somc of thc activities ar¢ delivered in partn¢rship with other voluntary and community groups to further the organisation's charitable purpose for the public benefit. Aehievements and Perforniance Th¢ Charity continues to provide its core companionship and social supwrt service to clients across its three towns and surrounding N'illa8es (Bovey Traccy, A5hburton and Buckfa5tleigh). These are delivered through a blend of befriending, group activities called Moor Social and phone groups establi5hcd 4 ycars response to Covid. New group activities have been initiated this year: including a Craft Group in Buckfastleigh and HOPE Courses in Ashburton. We thank our Volunteers for their gift of lime and friendship. We rely upon our volunieers io achieve our aims, wh¢thcr thcy are driving, befriending, aitending groups or phoning people. Contracted activities on behalf of the NHS have also continued, although the contracts have been extended, rather than renewed. The financial climate is A difficult one Ix)th for charities and the ststutory sector. In addition to the Wellbeing Programme and Home from Hospital support. the Dementia and End of Life Wellbeing Programme Colliinued into its 4th year. The Wellbeing Programmes and Home from Hospithl contracts involve much multi-agency work
wilh GPS, Social Prescribers. I lealih and Social Care paTtsieTS. Occupational Health, Occupaiional Therapists and Districi Nurses. Additionally, in 2023, Moorland Community Caring assisted Teignbridge CVS and Teignbridge Council to disiribuie £9,500 of Cost of Living payments as the country entered a time of financial hardship for many. This crcatcd a lot of extra work but was our privilege to help ihose in our community experiencing financial difficulties. The major administrative task for the year was to cnsure that the reporting of all our contract work was accurate, timely and included appropriate anonymiseil ¢as¢ studies. Reporting through the Partnership and with Teignbridge CVS helps to ensure that tUre funding reflects the work undertaken. The Wellbeing Contract was due to go through a tendering pr()¢ess, but as of 31 st December, this had not taken place. MCC benefitted from several key donors in 2023. The Ashburton Portreeve ¢hose MCC as her chosen charity and more than £5K was raised through a variety of events. The charity's financial situation became more challenging in 2023. Contracted services providcd the bulk of thc income, but remaincd at 2017 ratcs. Although net income was less than expenditure, many efforts were made to balance, including tsking on an annual contract for the Partnership with Social Care's Short Temi Services, helping to support people supported by Social Care Reablemeni. The contract helped people to connect with services at the end of the social care reablement package. Finally, Moorland Community Caring wishes to thank all those organisations and also individuals who have continued io provide financial support. Ihese include Bovey Town Council, Ashburton Town Council. Buckfastleigh Parish Council. The statement of the accounts for 2023 is attached io ihe end of ihis report. Financial Review The Charity was primarily funded by the agreements with Teignbridge Community and Voluntary Service5 who hold contracts with Devon County Council and Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust for delivery of local community activity across the Southern area of Devon. There was an excess of expenditure over income for the year of £14,326 {2022 - £128) Net Assets at the ycar end amounted io £99.392 including restricted funds of £7.862. The free serVeS of the Charity on 31 December 2023 were £91.530 Reserves Poli The Charity recognises that il is good practice io develop a reserves wlicy to ensure thal the organisalion can meet its financial liabilitics and io clarify with funders the reasons why we have money which is not specifically allocated, thereby creating transparency and accountability.
