Counselling For Social Change Limited Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 31 August 2021

The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2021. Included within the trustees’ report is the directors’ report as required by company law.

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and articles of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice ­ Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.

Objectives and activities

Our organisation's purposes as set out in the objects contained in the company’s memorandum and articles of association are “To relieve the mental and physical sickness of people suffering trauma and other mental health issues in particular but not exclusively as a result of campaign, care and relief work by the provision of counselling.”

Our main objectives for the year continued to be the provision of free and low­cost counselling across the South West of England for people on low incomes and counselling to activists and campaigners.

The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.

The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.

Achievements and performance

The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on providing free and low­cost counselling and are undertaken to further the charity’s charitable purposes for the public benefit.

In the 2020/2021 financial year we have provided 2796 hours of counselling support. This is an 11% increase on the last year. This was in line with our projections as we focussed on managing the challenges of Covid­19. However, we do anticipate more growth in the coming year as we aim to begin expanding our service to include Devon.

In this financial year, we successfully raised just under £20,000 in grants and donations.

One of our ongoing goals is to support counsellors move from volunteering to paid work. We achieve this by partnering with other charities and through our fundraising successes. Unfortunately, we once again saw a decrease (15%) in paid work. This is partly a result of the ongoing impact of the pandemic and some of our previous service users establishing their own competing counselling charities.

Volunteers

The success of Counselling for Social Change is dependent on our volunteer counsellors. Covid­19 continues to be a challenge. Much of our work has remained online and we are working to support counsellors move safely into face­to­ face work.

Beneficiaries of our services

Our service has provided counselling to people on low incomes across Cornwall. We have worked with other charities to provide counselling support to their beneficiaries. We also provide counselling support to people across the UK that are volunteering in campaigning/social justice movements. Our goal for the 2021/22 financial year to is broaden our low­cost counselling service to cover Devon.

Counselling For Social Change Limited Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 31 August 2021

Financial review

Despite the ongoing challenges we face as a result of the pandemic, Counselling for Social Change (C4SC) is in a strong financial position as we end the year.

The charity’s funds at the end of the year were as follows:

Restricted income was £2,760 (2020: £12,176) and restricted expenditure was £9,635 (2020: £6,736) resulting in a deficit of £6,875 (2020: surplus of £5,440) for the year. Unrestricted income was £46,442 (2020: £38,400) and unrestricted expenditure was £38,095 (2020: £43,689) resulting in a surplus of £8,347 (2020: deficit of £5,289) for the year.

Total income for the year was £49,202 (2020: £50,576) and total expenditure was £47,730 (2020: £50,425).

The charity’s funds at the year end were £22,392 (2020: £20,920) consisting of £Nil restricted funds (2020: £6,875) and £22,392 unrestricted funds (2020: £14,045).

Reserves policy

The Trustees have examined the charity’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between 3 and 6 months of core expenditure. Budgeted core expenditure for 2021/22 is £35,000 and therefore the target is £8,750 to £17,500 in general funds. As we end our eighth year of operations we have successfully built 8 months of reserves, or £22,392.

Structure, governance and management

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 10 October 2012 and registered as a charity on 20 January 2015.

The charitable company was established under a memorandum of association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its articles of association.

Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31 August 2021 was 4 (2020: 4). The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. Any expenses reclaimed from the charity are set out in note 10 to the accounts.

The trustees of the charity are also directors under the charity’s Articles and are known as ‘Directors’ in the Articles of Association.

Counselling For Social Change Limited Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 31 August 2021

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association one third of directors must retire each year in order of length of time in office, after which they must be re­elected at the next Annual General Meeting. Bee Sheldon­ Howkins retired by rotation and was re­elected.

Due to the nature of counselling much of the charity’s work focuses upon people with mental health issues, some of whom may be considered vulnerable adults. The trustees seek to ensure that the needs of this group are appropriately reflected through the diversity and experience of the trustee body. Mental health and management experience is well represented by the trustees. In an effort to maintain a broad skill mix, prospective trustees are requested to provide a list of their skills, and in the event of particular skills being lost due to retirements, individuals are approached to offer themselves for election to the board.

Related parties and relationships with other organisations

No trustees or related parties received remunerations. Please refer to Notes 8 and 9 in the accounts for other relevant information.

The charity worked closely together with Cornwall Neighbourhoods for Change (CN4C) and the Pearl Exchange this year. We continue our ongoing counselling support for their clients.

Remuneration policy for key management personnel

It is the aim of Counselling for Social Change (C4SC) to recruit and retain high calibre individuals who not only contribute to the achievement of the charity’s aims and objectives but also understand and support the ethos and culture of the organisation. The charity’s aim is to provide a remuneration package and working environment that is attractive and comparable to other similar organisations.

The charity’s trustees have ultimate responsibility for setting salary levels for staff. Trustees will conform with the Equality Act 2010.

The trustees are committed to ensuring a proper balance between paying staff and others fairly in order to attract and retain the best people for the job whilst ensuring careful management of charity funds.

Levels of Salary and Benefits

In deciding the levels of salary and benefits, trustees will consider:

Counselling For Social Change Limited Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 31 August 2021

Proportionality

C4SC does not believe in supporting excessive management/executive salaries at the cost of other employees. We have therefore pegged management salary (management fees in 2020) to always be no higher than the highest hourly rate paid to other staff, nor lower than the lowest hourly rate.

The charity undertakes to review salaries periodically, generally annually, although there is no guarantee that any changes to salaries will be made as a result of the review.

Risk management

The trustees have identified the following areas of potential risk:

Governance – as the charity grows the trustees are aware of the need to bring in new trustees to enhance the skills base. Trustees aim to develop a skills audit for the charity and agree a recruitment process.

Expenses ­ As we return to face­to­face counselling room hire costs have increased quite drastically due to venues attempting to recoup losses caused by lockdown. This has the potential to put additional stress on our service and may require a review of counselling charges. We are currently dealing with this by keeping a high level of online working.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Counselling For Social Change Limited

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2021 set out on pages 8 to 21.

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 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

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 matter has come to my attention:

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

a Basis of preparation

The financial statements 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) issued in October 2019 - (Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Counselling For Social Change meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £ sterling.

b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.

c Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

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 a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

d 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.

e Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of 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.

f Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

g Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:

Retreat structure 14%
Equipment 25%

h Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

i Cash at bank and in hand

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2021 (continued)

j Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

k Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

l Pensions

Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution ‘money purchase’ scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 8. There were no outstanding contributions at the year end.

2 Legal status of the charity

The charity is a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The registered office address is disclosed on page 1.
