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

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. 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** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

To further benefit residents of Oakenshaw and the surrounding area without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organizations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leisure-time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents and to promote other charitable objects for the benefit of the community. 

## **Significant activities** 

The above is the official wording in the Oakenshaw Community Association Constitution when established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 22nd July 2015. It was set up by Oakenshaw Community Association, which was a registered charity, and had existed since October 2008. Thus all funds from the old community association were transferred into the new organisation. The work of the Oakenshaw Community Association continued under the new arrangements. 

The Oakenshaw Neighbourhood Plan (ONP) was adopted on May 6th 2021 with a 73% majority. This along with the community survey carried out in January 2021 has given the Community Association a strategic vision for future projects that benefit the community and a mandate to carry these out. Three key objectives were identified in the survey: to improve and protect the field known as 'the green' to the West of New Row by making it more usable as a public amenity, to build a community hub to improve village infrastructure and provide an indoor meeting place, to build a small number of level access homes for people with mobility issues. 

This financial year the committee have continued with meetings every six weeks. To facilitate the engagement of parents with the committee we have offered online participation in face to face meetings. The work of the committee is recorded in minutes of meetings and project progress is shared within the committee on a google drive platform. To ensure engagement of village resident's information and minutes are posted on our Facebook site and hard copies are usually placed in the noticeboards. Recently the noticeboards were damaged and are currently undergoing repair. The AGM was held in October 2022. 

Money from the community benefit wind turbine is coming into our funds (income from the turbine is until 2034), which makes us confident about continuing our work into the medium term future. It also makes us less reliant on raising funds from other organizations although part of our philosophy is to raise matched funding whenever possible to make our funds go further in achieving our aims for the public benefit. We have successfully obtained grants for Housing (approximately 17K) and a grant of £500 to deliver a sports programme in the next financial year. A small grant (£100) was awarded to defray costs of celebrating the Queen's jubilee. Projects, such as building a community hub which might have been largely funded by the National Lottery, may become unfeasible as single grants have been drastically cut. Many services we relied on from the County Council and other funding bodies are being withdrawn which raises philosophical questions for us in terms of what we should be funding. This was discussed by the committee who take the view that where services are the responsibility of statutory authorities our role is to act as a pressure group for them to deliver services. However, constraints on spending by local authorities has meant that the cost of new improvements, such as speed reduction measures, fencing and parking is met by the Association and supported where possible by grant funding. In all our work we do take account of the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit.

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

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

The ONP and village survey have provided a strategy, aims and objectives for delivering the three key projects described above. Specific achievements and performance on these projects this year is as follows: 

## 1. Improving the green 

In 2021 we requested a visit from Durham County Council (DCC) Highways department to evaluate work to increase the number of parking spaces in New Row, install a fence to prevent people driving across the green and speed bumps on the allotment access road that runs between the Multiple Use Games Area and the play park to improve safety. We paid DCC for this work in the last financial year and it was completed in May 2022. 

To improve the drainage of the green we requested a visit from DCC drainage specialists to inspect the current drains and to advise on work that would make the green less boggy and increase the number of weeks it can be walked on. The drains have been inspected and we are awaiting a report recommending next steps. 

## 2. The community Hub 

Plans for the hub have been revised by the architects following feedback from residents. The building will be smaller and parking relocated. We have submitted a business case to the DCC assets transfer team and they have responded to this. We now need to make revisions to the business case to resubmit. 

## 3. Community Led Homes 

We wrote a successful grant application (£16060.00 from AAP and £1000 from CAN) in October 2021 to cover the cost of an independent housing needs survey and architect's phase 1 desk top and phase 2 ground surveys for the homes. The housing needs survey was carried out in January 2022 and a report received in February 2022. This identified a clear need for level access housing. It also showed a small majority of the village were in favour of the project with a significant number undecided. 

The remaining funds were unspent while suitable sites were investigated. In the summer of 2022 a site was identified that would be suitable for building six level access homes. A desk top survey and topographic survey were completed in autumn 2022. Two reports for a flood risk assessment and drainage strategy were received in January 2023. 

The phase 2 surveys have not been completed as drilling work, not funded by the grant, now needs to be carried out as the site is on top of historic shallow mines. We requested that the funds for phase 2 should be reallocated to enable us  to prepare a specific proposal for the housing on the site selected to put to a village referendum. If this proposal gains support then we would apply for further funds to complete the phase 2 and drilling work to take the project to planning application stage. 

A proposal leaflet including a summary of the surveys, the concept design and visual illustrations of the development has been produced concluding the grant funded project. A village referendum is underway and a result will be declared on April 14th. 

The committee is committed to follow a fair and transparent process (generating ideas from the community, research, preparation of a proposal and community endorsement) in the conduct of these large projects. It was considered important to commission an independent company to carry out a referendum to avoid accusations of bias. Funds have been allocated for this in next financial year. 

## Other activities 

In addition to these key projects a full social programme was delivered. Ten weeks of sports coaching on the Multiple Use Games Area was funded in part (£500) by Charity4U a local charity that supports sports activities. There was a well supported family fun day which raised £381 of funds which helped to defray some costs of the event. Other events were an Easter event, Halloween celebration, a limited Christmas event and a remembrance event in November. These are all outdoor activities which are key to maintaining social cohesion and reducing social isolation and so are regarded as a key component of the OCA's work for community benefit. They also provide an opportunity for committee members to be visible and engage with the community.

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

We have continued to work with the County Council, Three Towns Area Action Partnership and Greater Willington Town Council to undertake improvements in the area for public benefit. Oakenshaw Community Association own the company Sustainable Oakenshaw SPV Ltd. - registered office Finchale House, Belmont Business Park, Durham, DH1 1TW, registered number 08274813 (England and Wales), which receives the income from the owner of the wind  turbine. The Directors of that company make decisions about the annual amount of donations to the charity. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

In this financial year we ended with £48,472 in the Barclays current account and £75,356 in the Cambridge and Counties savings account. A payment of £29,000 was received from the community benefit wind turbine. Funds will be transferred in April 2023 to top up the high interest savings account (Cambridge and Counties Bank); this fund is to be used for capital projects such as the hub. The transfer of funds has been delayed as signatories for this account have changed and this has yet to be confirmed by the bank. 

We continued to fundraise at social events and through online fundraising vehicles such as Easyfundraising and Smile. These funds are generally allocated to cover the cost of the social programme. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The Constitution of Oakenshaw Community Association is based on the model produced by the Charity Commission for a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. The first Trustees were appointed by the trustees of the previous Oakenshaw Community Association and were appointed for different periods of time. Following a period of some changes, a new chair and trustees were appointed in 2019 and have been allocated roles in communicating the work of the OCA, projects and offices. Training has been given by Durham Community Action to support some of them in their new  roles. . When trustees finish their term of office, new trustees are appointed for a period of three years by the existing trustees. We recruited two new trustees this year but sadly one of these trustees has resigned and currently we have 6 trustees. We continue to try to recruit new committee members but it is a challenge to find people willing to undertake committee work whilst at the same time maintain diversity to ensure representation and relevance to all residents.

## **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').

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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:

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.
