## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities Overview** 

2023 has been a transformative year for Twynyrodyn Community Hub. Rooted in the principles of Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD), our work has increasingly focused on uncovering, mobilising, and celebrating the strengths within our community. Rather than focusing on deficits, we have intentionally nurtured the potential of individuals, the richness of relationships, and the wealth of local knowledge and skills that exist in our neighbourhood. 

## **Our work this year has been underpinned by three key priorities:** 

1. Fostering wellbeing and resilience across all age groups 

2. Creating sustainable, inclusive community spaces and programmes 

3. Building social capital through meaningful relationships and community-led action Expanding our Impact Through Funding and Partnership 

Thanks to generous support from key funders such as the National Lottery Community Fund Wales, we have been able to embed these priorities in our work, translating funding into tangible and lasting benefits for the people of Twynyrodyn. 

This has enabled us to: 

" Develop strong, reciprocal relationships with residents, organisations, and stakeholders 

" Improve our physical infrastructure, making the Hub more welcoming and accessible 

" Provide tailored wellbeing and support services, reducing isolation and improving quality of life 

" Strengthen intergenerational connections and foster a deeper sense of belonging 

## **Asset-Based Community Development in Action** 

Our approach this year has embraced the ABCD philosophy by focusing on: 

" Recognising individual gifts and skills - every member of the community has something to contribute 

" Encouraging local leadership - empowering residents to co-design and deliver solutions 

" Creating opportunities for mutual support - building stronger, more connected neighbourhoods 

" Celebrating our successes - highlighting what's strong, not what's wrong 

This approach has shifted our role from a provider of services to a facilitator of community-led change. 

## **Key Achievements** 

1. Food Pantry and Community Support 

Our Community Food Pantry has become more than a place for essential supplies - it's a hub of connection, dignity, and mutual aid. By promoting choice, reducing stigma, and encouraging volunteering, we have: 

" Supported over 150 households with weekly access to food and essentials 

- " Enabled residents to support one another through shared cooking, budgeting tips, and storytelling 

- " Reduced food waste and encouraged more sustainable practices 

- " Used the Pantry as a gateway to wider support, including financial advice, mental health services, and peer networks. 

This initiative reflects our belief that food is community, and that resilience is built one conversation at a time. 

## **2. Youth Wellbeing and Development (MTCBC Project)** 

Our youth programmes have gone from strength to strength this year, providing safe, engaging, and empowering  spaces for young people. Funded in part by Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council, we have:

" Seasonal events like our Christmas Market, Breakfast with the Elves, Halloween Maze, and VE Day Tea 

" Cultural workshops and celebrations that highlighted the diversity of our community 

" Volunteering opportunities that empowered residents to take ownership and lead 

" Shared meals and story-sharing spaces, building trust, healing division, and strengthening connections 

These events are designed to celebrate assets, build trust, and increase participation from across the community. 

## **4. Digital Inclusion and Infrastructure** 

Our Digital Community Project has continued to bridge the digital divide: 

" Refurbished donated laptops and tablets for a new community device lending library 

" Delivered basic IT training, helping residents access services, education, and employment 

" Supported digital confidence and independence for older residents and those with additional needs 

With the help of Merthyr Valleys Homes, we also completed critical capital works including: 

" Driveway resurfacing to enable safer access for our community minibus 

" The development of a dedicated community car park, addressing safety and accessibility issues 

" Investment in improving the physical environment of the Hub, making it more inclusive and fit-for-purpose 

## **Community Benefit and Lasting Change** 

Our work has led to a wide range of long-term positive outcomes, including: 

- " Reduced social isolation, especially for elderly and vulnerable residents 

- " Increased community participation, with over 70 new volunteers joining us this year 

- " Greater inter-agency collaboration, reducing duplication and improving outcomes 

- " Strengthened neighbourhood identity, with residents expressing renewed pride in their area 

" Improved life chances, particularly among young people and families 

## **Partnerships and Collaboration** 

Collaboration remains central to our ethos. In 2023, we have worked with a wide network of partners, including: 

" Local schools (Greenfields School, Twynyrodyn Primary) 

" Gellideg Foundation Group 

- " VAMT, Dowlais Engine House, Workers Educational Association

- " Bridges into Work, Merthyr Job Centre, Drug Aid, Glynmil Travellers Site 

- " Cwm Taf Morgannwg Partnership Board and Merthyr Steering Groups 

These partnerships have extended our reach, improved our impact, and ensured that the voices of our community are heard across the borough and beyond. 

## **Monitoring, Evaluation and Forward Focus** 

Our programmes are evaluated through: 

- " Regular community consultations and surveys 

- " Feedback at events and during service delivery 

- " Trustee-led reviews of impact data and case studies 

- " Ongoing reflective practice with staff and volunteers 

These mechanisms help ensure we remain responsive, relevant, and rooted in the real needs and aspirations of our community. 

## **Looking Forward** 

As we look ahead to 2024, we are committed to: 

- " Embedding ABCD further in our planning, delivery, and leadership development 

- " Continuing to grow our volunteer base through skill-sharing and community mentoring 

- " Expanding our youth provision and increasing targeted support for marginalised groups 

- " Deepening our impact on sustainability, access, and mental health

On behalf of the Trustees, we extend heartfelt thanks to our volunteers, partners, and residents. Your resilience, kindness, and determination continue to inspire everything we do. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Grants and Fundraising** 

Twyn Community Hub has been lucky enough to receive some grant funding from generous organisations, these can  be seen in note 4 in the accounts. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Twyn Community hub are keenly aware of the need to secure our viability beyond the immediate future. In order to be able to provide reliable services over the longer term. Twyn community hub must be able to absorb setbacks and take advantage of change and opportunity. We provide for this by putting aside, when we afford it, some of our current income as a reserve against future uncertainties. 

A minimum level of reserves required for 1 quarter = £15,000. Twynyrodyn Community Hub accepts that where possible it will need absorb setbacks and take advantage of change and opportunity. Twyn Community provide for this by putting aside, when we afford it, some of our current income as a reserve against future uncertainties. 

The charity currently holds free reserves of £Nil (2022: £Nil). The target reserves level, as stated above, is £15,000 being required spend for one financial quarter. The charity will make every effort in the coming years to increase free reserve to this level.. 

Twyn community hub will continue to fundraise, welcome donations and use our premises for rental to retain and build reserves. Since our hire charges are significantly cheaper than other local halls, there is unlikely to be a problem increasing our rates if we need too.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Twyn Community HUB (Previously known as Twyn Action Group Youth Club)**

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

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

**TWYN COMMUNITY HUB (PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS TWYN ACTION GROUP YOUTH CLUB)** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Legal form** 

The charity is a charitable incorporated organisation, registered in England and Wales. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

The following specific policies are applied: 

**Voluntary income** received by way of grants, gifts or donation is included in full on receipt unless it is subject to a condition when it is treated as deferred income. 

**Deferred income** . Income or grants received in advance are held as deferred income and carried forward to future accounting periods to be released when the defined purpose of the work or project have been completed, approved or certified. 

**Gifts in kind** are included in the income and expenditure account where they are applied in carrying out charitable activities, where the company would otherwise have to purchase the donated facility and the benefit is both quantifiable and material. The quantifiable benefit is shown as both incoming and expended resources within the appropriate funds. Where the gift is an asset it is treated as income and taken to stock or fixed assets  as appropriate. The value of services provided by volunteers is not quantified. 

**Investment income** is included when receivable. 

**Other income.** This is contributions from restricted funds towards core costs of the organisation. An  unrestricted designated fund is to be used to hold all such contributions prior to them being expended. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are included in the balance sheet at historic cost less accumulated depreciation. Grant receipts which fund fixed asset acquisitions are taken to restricted funds and the appropriate depreciation charge is made against those funds over the expected useful life of the asset. 

Improvements to property - 4% on cost Plant & machinery - 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% reducing balance

## **21. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY** 

The Charity is controlled by its Trustees. 

## **22. GIFTS IN KIND** 

The value of volunteer time is not quantified in terms of money but the time contributed by volunteers is an invaluable resource in terms of the outstanding contribution made by them. 

The number of hours contributed by volunteers in the year was approximately 6,000 (2022: 6,000). 

## **23. GOING CONCERN** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Activities of the charity post 31st December 2023 are subject to additional funding being obtained, but the Trustees are confident this will be received. 

The trustees therefore believe that the organisation's financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources of funding or support will be more than adequate for the organisation's needs and that no material uncertainty exists.
