## **Summary of our achievements in 2022** 

Working with the University of Sunderland, and supported by the Trussell Trust, we are **spearheading** 

**research** into the drivers of deprivation in South Tyneside; particularly amongst those in our community who are working poor.  This work has also extended our reputation and partnership reach.  We are now an integrated member of the Council’s poverty strategy group, our work is included in the Council’s strategic plan and we have also extended our schools partnership network. 

Our work in the community has been a critical development enabling us to bring the lived experience to the decision-making table of those in power.  We have established a strong reputation as an evidence-based, information led, organisation and this has strengthened our ability to influence how others think and act. 

Over the past twelve months we have opened our first **Community Shop** and integrated **Wellbeing Hub** . Our aim being to provide longer term preventative support to those living in food insecurity.  With our wellbeing hub delivering services that improve our community’s emotional, physical and financial wellbeing.  This development has been a significant step change towards our aspiration to bring positive change to our community and build the social capital necessary to bring communities together. 

In partnership with South Tyneside Council, we have secured the funding necessary to develop a network of community shops and wellbeing hubs.  Over the coming two years we will open a further two shops and are aiming to **support 10,000 people.** 

Demand for **emergency food support remains high** and we have seen a reduction in food donations as our community begin to feel the harrowing reality of the financial crisis. We have also seen a change in the demographic of those people seeking support, 6 in 10 of all household’s supported are families with children and 4 in 10 are in employment and are working poor.  A critical element of our wellbeing service has been the partnership with Age Concern Tyneside South, who provide our Debt and Welfare Benefit Advice Service.  This year we have recovered **£500,000** in benefits and written off debt. 

We have delivered on the commitment to extend our supported housing service.  This year we have commenced the purchase of a **move on property,** increasing the number of people we can support.  This will enhance our supported housing offer by enabling residents to ‘test out’ independent living prior to moving into their own accommodation. 

We have strengthened our community wellbeing service by delivering activities that the community have identified as critical to achieving positive change.  In the last 12 months, we have delivered structured **wellbeing activities to 756 people** .  Our Christmas food campaign provided families with a Christmas day meal and supporting children at risk of hunger during the school holidays. 

This report contains more information on the success of Hospitality and Hope over the past twelve months and our ambitions for the future.  We hope that our journey inspires you as much as it does for our team of Volunteers, Trustees and Staff.

During the 2021/22 business year we experienced a significant increase in demand. Supporting 2,000 more people than the previous year, and 4,300 more people since 2020. 

This work was primarily achieved by responding to increased demand for food support; opening our first Community Shop, extending our wellbeing provision and increasing our community engagement and insights work. 

## **7,500** people supported 

**4,050** children 

## **3,450** adults

## **Tackling Food Insecurity – Food Bank** 


14,000 food parcels distributed 

Food insecurity continues to be a daily challenge for our community.  In 2021/22 our South Tyneside Foodbank experienced another busy year with the number of people needing food support remaining high, as the financial crisis hit household incomes hard. Without the support of our community, supermarket partners (particularly ASDA, Morrisons, Farm Foods, Heron Foods and Tesco Extra) and many local businesses, we would simply not be able to make a difference every day to those who need a helping hand. 

We supported 4,644 people who are living in food insecurity. 

We know that needing food support has a social stigma - this is something that our team work hard to help the individual overcome.  We also refer people for support to address the issues that impact negatively on their life; including our own wellbeing service and debt advice service.  The self-referral route for food support continues to be used well, with 60% of those seeking food support coming via a self-referral.

South Tyneside has seen an increase in the number of children living in food insecurity. This has been mirrored in our service with families and children now representing 50% and 40% respectively. 

**62%** of those seeking food support cited low income as the reason for the referral, during this year we supported people across 18 of the ward areas in South Tyneside, however the areas in most need of food support are:

## **Tackling Food Insecurity - Your Community Shop** 


Delivering on our commitment to take an evidence based and preventative approach to supporting our community out of food insecurity, this year we opened our first community shop on Horsley Hill Square, supported by the Virgin Money Foundation, Joicey Trust and Royal Warrant Holders Association. 

The aim is to create a **community anchor** , at which people can receive longer term food support and access to wider services that reduce social isolation, develop skills and build social capital in the community. 

We are grateful to our colleagues in Lydon’s Pharmacy, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons and ASDA for their support by donating regular food supplies and essential household and personal cleaning products. 

This extended reach into one of our hardest hit ward areas is enabling us to understand the complex needs of our community and tailor services that will bring positive and long-lasting change. 

A survey of the first 100 customers of Your Community Shop has been used to develop wellbeing services that meet their needs.

Whilst it is early days, the Horsley Hill shop has developed at pace and is enabling us to help those people who would otherwise have not reached out for support; particularly those over 55 and people in employment.  The initial feedback from those using the shop has been encouraging and heartwarming. 


**‘Fantastic idea to help the community and to reduce food waste, the volunteers are always friendly and helpful’.** 

**‘I can’t believe what you actually get for £4, such a help to me and the family’.** 

**‘I am so grateful for this service and the lovely people who greet you. A little help goes a long way, thank you’.**

In partnership with South Tyneside Council, we have achieved two critical developments this year.  The first being a successful bid into the Governments Shared Prosperity Fund to develop two more Your Community Shops, over two years.  The second being delivery of the Household Support Fund to 200 families who are hard to reach. 

This strengthening of our service offer has enabled us to develop a more holistic approach, supporting those who are in crisis to regain control of their lives, as demonstrated in the following case study. 

On a cold and stormy day. 

It was the coldest of days when a Mum came unannounced through our doorway with her children in tow. 

As she entered the building in a flurry of snow, Mum broke into tears, it was clear that she was in crisis, my colleague quickly took the children into another room.  When the children left Mum nearly collapsed, saying that she had reached the end of being able to manage and did not know where to turn.  She had walked the children two miles to come to us as she didn’t have money for the bus fare and no other support networks to call upon. 

Mum explained that both her and her husband work, but they are not managing as their household outgoings virtually now outstripped their collective salary income.  They were struggling with money for utility top ups via the meter and food costs. In addition, council tax arrears were about to be taken directly from her husband’s salary and she was really worried about the impact of this. 

She had been unable to make a referral for food support as she didn’t have the money to top up her mobile phone. In any event she didn’t think that she could take food away as she couldn’t manage the children and the shopping on the walk home. 

Mum described a life of immense stress and hunger for both her and her husband, they were typically going without to ensure the children are safe and healthy. 

She simply hadn’t known what to do but knew about Hospitality and Hope, and had decided to come visit us for help. 

Whilst my colleague provided cereal for the children, we put together a package of support for the family. 

A referral was made to our benefits and debt advisor. We arranged for a colleague to transport the family home so that we could provide emergency food support. As part of the Household Support Fund, we provided access to support for gas so they could stay warm. In addition, we provided a SIM card that would save money by providing Mum with free calls, text and data for 6 months. 

We also signed the family up as a member of the Your Community Shop to provide longer term emotional and food support.  As slow cooking is the cheapest way to prepare meals, we also provided the family with a slow cooker. 

As a result of kind donations from the community we provided a £30 voucher for the family to have a meal at a Green King Public House and gave the children and parents a Christmas gift. 

Our community is shifting in a seismic way, working people are entering deprivation at a scale previously unseen. It would be true to say that this young Mother and her sad story impacted on our staff and volunteers. Unfortunately though, this is not an isolated case, we are seeing an increasing number of people similar to this family coming to us for support. 

Fast forward 4 months.  The lady visited us to say that both her and her husband had secured better paid jobs and a cheaper house rental.  In her own words: ‘our life is now brilliant, the support and kindness of you and your team gave us, when we needed it most, was brilliant.  You helped us out of crisis and into a better life for our us all’.

## **Reducing Homelessness** 

Located in Laygate, South Shields, Chai House is a 5 bedroom property regulated by South Tyneside Council as a large House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO), but that is where the similarity ends with other HMO’s in the area, as the services provided at Chai House are more representative of a supported living unit.  With our team of specialists in the field of supported housing, they provide more than 60 hours support each week, delivered 7 days per week. 

The ‘Passport to Independent Living’ programme continues to be the cornerstone of our work at Chai House.  It delivers structured support across the full spectrum of a person’s transition from homelessness to full, independent living. 


Over the course of this year, we have extended our partnership working. Hospitality and Hope now works as an integrated member of the South Tyneside Homelessness Strategy group, supporting the development of wider services that support homeless people. 

During the 2021/2022 financial year, Chai House has supported 17 adult males who required accommodation and housing support due to homelessness, addictions or poor mental health. 

> Our residents have achieved **19 qualifications** , with one resident securing employment and four moving into their own tenancy. 

_**‘During the time I was with Teri at Hospitality and Hope I went from homeless without a job and managed to get back on my feet and find a job, then shortly after find my own place to live again.  They helped me when I had fallen on hard times and I couldn’t thank them enough for that. Great staff so welcoming, understanding and helpful. So grateful for the help I received from Teri and the team’.**_ 

Chai residents working at the allotment. 

Over the next three years, one of Hospitality and Hope’s strategic priorities is to increase the number of bedspaces available in our supported housing service to nine.  During this financial year we commenced the acquisition of a two bedroom **move on property** .  Once acquired this will provide a critical steppingstone into independent living for our residents.

## **Improving Community Wellbeing** 

During this financial year we have continued to build and extend our wellbeing service, based on what the community tell us is most likely to bring about positive change for them.  Much of this focus has been on creating synergy between the Your Community Shop at Horsley Hill and the wellbeing services which is delivered from the same location. 

Collectively this has created an anchor for the community, **a symbol of hope and steadfastness** that is valued as a community asset. 

Our work is focussed on creating opportunities that break the cycle between deprivation, loneliness and poor wellbeing. 

Although still in its infancy our wellbeing service is gaining momentum at pace and has reached more people this year, than at any time in our 20-year history. 


**756** people attended a wellbeing activity. 

**182** benefited from a cooking on a budget course. 

**1346** received a Christmas meal. 

**200** households received support with utility bills. 

**890** people received debt and benefit advice. 

Cooking a budget attendees funded by Newcastle Building Society 

Our partnership with Age Concern Tyneside South continues to deliver astounding and life changing outcomes for people.  This year our Financial Inclusion Officer secured **£500,000** in additional benefits and written off debt. 

Community involvement is important to us. During the year we have extended our volunteering opportunities. Volunteers now work in our food bank, community shop, deliver wellbeing activities and run an allotment. 

**‘Such a great place to come to, staff are such a help. Thank god for this place’.** 

**‘I love coming here to the activities, for the company. Everyone is so friendly’.** 

In total volunteers donated **2,707** hours of their time to help the community 

**‘I can’t believe how good it is here, makes such a difference talking to people’.**

## **Influencing others** 

An exciting development from this year has been our inclusion in a project funded by Trussell Trust, to create a local approach to campaigning on the issues which are driving people into food insecurity and deprivation. We want to ensure that local decision makers are **informed on the drivers of deprivation** at a macro level. 

Our aspiration is that the community of South Tyneside are supported in raising their voice and bringing their life stories to the people who can make a difference. We want to influence how others use this information to make evidence-based decisions. 

This work has moved at a fast pace; in partnership with the University of Sunderland, we have established a community insights and research programme.  A team from the University are now working with us to bring academic rigour, research skills and support to our developing evidence-based approaches.  The University have also facilitated a one day training programme for our Trustees and staff on evidence based practice, this was following by a Board strategy planning day which brought the fresh learning about evidence based practice into the Trustees development of their three year plan. 

Our Community Participation Officer has begun to engage those with lived experience, creating the foundation for supporting them to campaign in the future. We have secured the support of **8 volunteers with lived experience** who have been trained as **community champions** . This group of inspirational people have just completed a community survey of 100 community members; bringing valuable insights into the causes of deprivation and the type of services and support the community need. 

**10** workshops where 26 working people were During this year we have focused on those interviewed. living in working poverty and have collated a significant volume of **2** school parent workshops. information. This will form the basis of our first stage research. **13** individual parent interviews face to face, online and in the wider community. 

Whilst this worked proved challenging, our ability to bring the **stories from those with lived experience** and our unique ability to provide meaningful data and information has provided the building blocks for a positive partnership with Local Authority colleagues. 

We now work as in integrated member of the newly formed Council Poverty Strategy Group, who are supporting the development of a Poverty Truth Commission and have been involved in a review of (and this project is named in) the South Tyneside Council’s Strategic Plan. 

This work has been focussed on promoting the absolute need for prevention rather than treatment, with a clear focus on doing what works best to support our community to live their life well, accepting this is a long-term strategic imperative.

## **The year ahead** 

We are no less ambitious in our future priorities than we have been this year.

## **A big thank you to our supporters.** 

Our success and the positive impact that we bring to so many in our community is not delivered in isolation. Without the continued and generous support from our community, funding bodies and charitable foundations we would simply not be able to make a difference very day. So, on behalf of our Volunteers, Trustees and staff we would like to say a heartfelt thank you.

In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

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 2011 ("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 Accountancy 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.

## **HOSPITALITY AND HOPE CIO** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

For the year ended 31 October 2022 

## 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 2011. 

Hospitality and Hope CIO 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 £287,738 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 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. 

## 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.

## **HOSPITALITY AND HOPE CIO** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

For the year ended 31 October 2022 

## 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 charity. 

## 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 £250 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis. 

Office and computer equipment 25% straight line Freehold land and buildings Straight line over 50 years Vehicle Straight line over 5 years
