NEPHRA GOOD NEIGHBOURS CHARITABLE INCORPORATED ORGANISATION

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Our activities are carried out primarily at Nephra HQ which is a premises rented at 27 Parkfield Rd North, New Moston, Manchester, M40 3TB. In addition activities are carried at our allotment on Northfield Road, New Moston, and within the wider local community.

Income is generated from day to day activities, ad hoc fundraising events, and from grants received. This entails delivery of community based educational classes (typical class subjects include computer skills, arts/crafts, local history, music and language skills) and conducted social activities (e.g. luncheon club, film clubs), throughout the year. Also we have a befriending scheme which helps to develop our presence in the wider community, our allotment provides a focus for our public outdoor and environmental activities, and our periodic outings/holidays provide for popular social interaction.

In the year to 31 March 2022, our usual activities began to return to normal, slowly, following the Covid-19 pandemic. Our services were adjusted to take account of a certain degree of limitations on social mobility due to the pandemic. Where necessary our services were therefore taken out into the community as well as delivered at Nephra HQ. We have also been able to make and sell small food items (at the centre and in the wider community) in order to boost our day to day income.

Each of these activities is not otherwise available to local residents in any equivalent form; and hence we believe Nephra plays an important role in helping to bring together and educate people from all parts of the local community.

A number of fundraising activities have been undertaken, the largest of which being our Christmas Fayre, with a number of other smaller discrete activities. Our periodic outings and holidays were able to recommence during the year.

Grants were received from a number of sources, including the National Lottery, Manchester City Council (MCC), the Opens fund, NHS Manchester CCG, The Big Life Fund, TSB and Jigsaw Group Homes. A number of these grants were to support our community delivery of meals, community travel, befriending, IT support and other community efforts.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

At 31 March 2022 there remain unrestricted cash reserves available to Nephra of £38,053. This is a total sum held in Nephra's main bank account, plus a smaller amount of cash on hand. This is available to assist with the future day to day activities of Nephra.

Annual Review

Our financial statements show incoming resources for the year of £239,783 which includes:

£126,052 of these grant funds was spent on delivering services to the community, in accordance with the terms of the grants. The balance £79,872 of restricted funds is ringfenced, to help cover a number of identified activities and expenses planned to be undertaken in subsequent years.

These included income from Nephra HQ community activities, sales of food as well as other small ad hoc income receipts. Expenses incurred on these items were £14,997.

In addition an amount of £1,041 rental income was received in the year.

Total outgoings for the year were £141,049 consisting of grant expenditure £126,052, expenses of fundraising activities £1,053, outings and activities £952, other expenses of day to day to day activities £8,393 plus depreciation costs £3,699.

The difference between total income £239,783 and expenditure £141,049 represents a profit of £98,734 for the year. As mentioned £79,872 relates to restricted funds, which is ringfenced, to cover a number of identified activities and expenses planned to be undertaken in subsequent years.The balance of the profit £18,862 (along with other reserves) is intended to be retained for future use as the trustees determine appropriate.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Organisational structure

The trustees are responsible for setting Nephra's strategy, the primary focus of which is on the education and development of our community, through the pursuit of Nephra's stated aims.

We welcome people from all backgrounds, and work as an equal opportunity organisation which is free from any form of discrimination on the grounds of colour, race, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation or disability.

We also make reasonable adjustments to meet the needs of those who are or become disabled and we re committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all parties and at all locations within the community where Nephra operates. For example any staff member, service provider, volunteer, or other worker, potentially coming into contact with vulnerable persons (of any age) will be subject Disclosure Notice and Barring (DNB) checks as well as being trained in our policies and principles.

The trustees determine the general policy and activities of the charity, along with input from other volunteers who are asked to contribute to our management committee. The trustees, along with any management committee members, meet on a regular basis (at least six times a year) to discuss and agree the overall management and control of the charity, along with any upcoming future events and requirements.

The trustees and Nephra centre management maintain an effective and necessary control on the finances of the charity relative to its size and level of operation. This includes recording and countersigning of cash income and obtaining receipts for expenditure. Payments to and from the bank account are also cross checked, with each cheque requiring two signatories.

Related party transactions

All trustees give of their time freely and no remuneration or expenses were paid in the year for work as acting as trustees.

One of the trustees, whilst receiving no payment for trustee work, also acts in a separate capacity where they are paid professional fees to act as tutors in preparing and delivering certain classes to Nephra. These services are supplied under terms as agreed to be open and objective, as authorised by other trustees, and funds are expended in accord with terms of grants provided by Manchester City Council. The trustee has received the following sums during the year consisting of professional tutoring fees plus reimbursement of actual day to day expenses incurred: Iris Cooper £2,010.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
