SIXTY-ONE TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

Charity No. 1159302

Structure, Governance and Management

Charitable Status

Sixty-One is a CIO (number 1159302) registered in November 2014.

The Charitable Objects

The objects for which the Charity is established are as follows:

The objects of the CIO are the relief of those in need or hardship in Bristol and the surrounding region and in particular prisoners, ex-prisoners and those who are at risk of entering the prison system by (in each case in ways which are consistent with principles of the Christian faith); providing and financing a mentoring service to assist such persons in developing skills to improve their conditions of life and to advance their education; and promoting and financing such other charitable activities as the charity trustees see fit in order to relieve such persons from hardship and to improve their conditions of life.

Trustees

The charity trustees meet at least four times a year to discuss and review the work of the charity. Any new trustees are identified by the remaining trustees. The Chairman of Trustees is responsible for the induction of any new trustee. New trustees are required to gain an awareness of trustees’ responsibilities, the governing document, administrative procedures, and the history and ethos of the charity.

Risk Management

The trustees have reviewed the major risks and there are systems in place to manage those risks.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees aim to keep a minimum of 3 months' forecast expenditure in reserves at all times, with an aspiration to achieve 6 months' forecast. Reserves at the end of the year were £116,792, which is slightly less than the anticipated expenditure for the first 6 months of 2024.Overall, this is healthy financial end to 2023, with a modest building in reserves.

Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the reporting period

Sixty-One, like most charities working in the criminal justice sector, is dependent on voluntary funds. To this end we have a comprehensive and well established trust and foundation fundraising programme that accounts for most of our income. In addition we are well connected with the local community and raise significant funds from local groups and individuals - we have a long-term strategy of increasing this income over the next five years. These income sources have enabled us to operate with financial stability for the last decade.

Trustees Report

Sixty-One

Year-ended 31[st] December 2023

Trustees Annual Report

Our Work:

Sixty-One supports people in, and who have left prison, to lead meaningful lives away from crime. We do this by inspiring, enabling and supporting the local community to provide the relational and practical support needed on leaving prison.

We run two of our own projects, MentorMe and the Gift Projects. We also work in partnership with local groups, charities, organisations and businesses. Working in this way expands the reach of our support and creates a bridge between the prison gate and the community in which people leaving prison are expected to operate.

The majority of our work is carried out in the Greater Bristol area; however, some of our partnership activity has developed beyond Bristol to prisons nationwide.

Our Projects:

  1. MentorMe – Enables volunteer mentors to support prison-leavers. Our team of four core staff recruit, train and support mentors, as well as identifying suitable mentees. The team work closely with prisons, probation, hostels, charities, churches and the wider community. This is our largest project, supporting 78 prison-leavers in the last year.

MentorMe also organises celebration events four times a year for our mentors, mentees, and staff and local groups. These events help to build a sense of relationship, community and connection and are key for people leaving prison in overcoming social anxiety, building confidence and finding acceptance and belonging.

  1. The Christmas and Easter Gift Projects - With the support of 12 local churches, mentors and volunteers, we enable over 1,800 people in our four local prisons to receive a bag of thoughtful gifts. Through these projects we are also able to promote our other support services available to people in, and leaving prison.

Our Partnerships:

  1. We partner with four local churches that run mid-week Hubs, providing a welcoming space for people who have left prison to meet together, share food, learn and volunteer.

  2. We continue to work with Rupert Vernalls, founder of the highly acclaimed MBA Academy. Having made his MBA Empowerment Course available to people in, and who have left prison, Rupert is now working with us on ways to greatly expand his Goal-Setting Workbook to mentors and mentees alike.

  3. We enable and support a local pastor and leader from the black community to run a Constructive Masculinity and Bee Keeping Course in HMP Bristol and in the community.

  4. We develop partnerships with local organisations, charities, churches and individuals. In this way, we can connect, refer and advise people across a range of interventions such as housing, employment, education, arts, music, volunteering, mental health and addiction.

Bringing it all together

Leaving prison can be a daunting and confusing experience. It can be hard to know what to do, when to do it and what support is available on release. Partnership-working, community support and mentoring are fundamental to people being able to successfully settle back into community life, achieve financial independence and sustain meaningful, crime-free lives. It is here that Sixty-One can make all the difference.

2023 has been a year of consolidating and expanding the charity’s work. At the beginning of the year, we brought together key stakeholders working with people in prison, rehabilitative projects, business leaders, charities, prison representatives and people with lived experience of the criminal justice system. The aim was to provide better and more effective joined-up, personalised support to prison leavers. The result was the establishment of a Bristol Strategic Partnership Group chaired by Sixty-One and with the focus on accommodation, employment and mentoring.

To this end, the group has met quarterly and, through Sixty-One, commissioned a feasibility study to explore how best to further join-up and personalise support and employment offers for people leaving prison.

We’ve expanded our work with our partner hubs in the community, creating a dedicated post to provide ongoing support, training and advice to our partner hubs. This has also enabled us to prepare a fifth hub ready for launch in 2024 in partnership with a local church and probation.

The Constructive Masculinity Course added a practical session on beekeeping and the principles of ‘harmony’ to its offer, and along with it, several beehives at HMP Bristol and the opportunity for prisoners at HMP Bristol to train in beekeeping.

Lastly, as well as providing Christmas gifts to every serving prisoner at our three local men’s prisons, this year we added an Easter Gift Project to our offering. With the combined support of mentors, volunteers, churches and local businesses, we provided 400 Easter gifts for each of the women at our local women’s prison and an easter chocolate for any visiting children that weekend.

As we head into our 10[th] year in operation as a charity, we remain enormously grateful for the community of support that surrounds us. It was partnership and community that led to the formation of Sixty-One; our four local prisons are an integral part of our local community, and it is the strength of a community that will support lasting change for a person on their release.

We as Trustees and team wish to recognise and thank all of our supporters, partners, volunteers, mentors and mentees for making this work possible.

As one recipient of a Christmas Gift Bag in prison put it so well:

‘Our prison - and indeed several other prisons – are embedded in your local community. It would be easy for us prisoners to feel isolated from society, despised and feared, and abandoned from any kind though or care. It is very uplifting to receive a concrete example of how some people at least do care and can direct not only kind thoughts towards us but kind actions.’

During the course of 2023, we have achieved the following:

2 This figure is lower than the previous year, primarily due to being a member of staff down for 5 months of the year. Like many organisations, we experienced a challenging recruitment landscape in 2023.

3This is based on a national first-year reoffending rate of 55%, which reflects the cross-section of mentees we work with; this includes repeat offenders, offenders on short sentences and offenders with addiction issues.

SIXTY-ONE TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

Statement of Public Benefit

The trustees have complied with their legal duty under the Charities Act to have regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. High reoffending rates of prisoners in the UK remains one of society’s most intractable problems (over 60% reoffend within two years), and this is continuing to have considerable negative impact, both social and financial, within families and communities.

Long-term mentoring of individuals as provided by the MentorMe programme, which starts from within the prison walls, through to successful reintegration into the community, is a highly effective model that can finally break this cycle (see outcomes above).

In addition, our wide-ranging contacts with the church network across the greater Bristol area allows us to be able to connect ex-prisoners with supportive communities that have been trained in how to work safely with them.

The independent National Audit Office estimates that reoffending costs the tax-payer £13 billion per year. Each prisoner who is sent back to jail costs the taxpayer around £65,000 in their first year if police, court, benefit and prison costs are taken into account, and £35,000 in subsequent years.[5] The work of Sixty-One therefore makes a tangible and significant contribution towards reducing cost to the public purse by reducing reoffending rates considerably.

5 This is based on a national first-year reoffending rate of 55%, which reflects the cross-section of mentees we work with; this includes repeat offenders, offenders on short sentences and offenders with addiction issues. It is based on a first-year reconviction cost of £65,000, which includes prison, police, probation, court and benefit costs. The commonly-quoted £35,000 cost of imprisoning a person just covers the direct prison costs.

Statement of trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed/constitution. 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.

SIXTY-ONE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Sixty-One

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Sixty-One (the Charity) for the year ended 31st December 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do 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 no concerns and 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.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.1 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
2.3 ASSETS
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at
settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently,
they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
2.2 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where 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.
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
Governance and support
costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
• the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or
permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the
donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift
and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or
the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Redundancy cost
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
Deferred income
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
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
