## **NEWway Project** 

## **Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 30th June 2021** 

## **OUR LIFE & STORY** 

## **Origins** 

The NEWway Project was set up in 2013 as a winter night shelter to support the rising number of homeless people in London Borough of Newham. 

In 2018, we developed year-round advocacy and daytime services called NEWday to further support homeless and vulnerably housed single adults. 

The services run in collaboration with Newham Council, Bonny Downs Community Association, local churches, and an extensive team of volunteers. 

## **This year** 

In 2020, the NEWway founder Jonny Adams set up a separately constituted social enterprise called NEWlife to support the homeless community into work through gardening, which works alongside NEWway. 

Summer 2020 was a time during national Covid-19 lockdown when all our services had to adapt to 

new challenges. It provoked various structural changes. We turned the name of ‘NEWway Project’ into the umbrella over our three main services: 

NEWdawn for the winter night shelter 

NEWday for the day centre 

NEWlife as the independent gardening social enterprise which supports our guests. 

In the accounting year 2020/21, NEWway received two grants to run two new projects, and three 

Covid emergency grants towards night shelter provision and gardening workshops after the lockdown. 

## **OBJECTIVES** 

The relief of poverty and financial hardship of individuals in need in Newham, particularly but not exclusively by the provision of: 

- a) Temporary winter night shelter 

- b) Advice and support to seek subsequent accommodation 

- c) Information, guidance and signposting towards meeting related needs 

- d) Showers, laundry services and food at NEWday centre 

- e) Specialist housing advice, financial advice, and support, signposting and referring to other specialist support services in Newham. 

We work to prevent and reduce homelessness, and to provide support so that people can overcome barriers and begin building their lives once again.

## **IMPACT OF COVID-19** 

Like everyone, our small charity and our staff adapted to health worries, lockdowns, restrictions, and fast-changing guidance from Government and local Public Health departments. 

Given the frontline nature of our work, NEWway operated throughout the pandemic. The team demonstrated resilient commitment to seeing lives changed (and even lives saved) by quickly devising new ways of working, because we could no longer gather in groups, share food, or run group activities. We concentrated on how to assess individual needs and provide 1:1 support in the safest and most efficient way. Staff worked remotely between the end of March 2020 and the end of August 2020, supporting individuals with emergency food parcels, medication, online support, housing advice, help to claim benefits, and signposting towards employment. We are pleased to report that every guest we supported in that first lockdown maintained their accommodation. 

NEWday returned to working face-to-face in September 2020 and was able to open 5 days a week for appointments. All necessary risk assessments were completed, PPE was required of staff and guests, numbers in the building were limited to those who had an appointment. Staff were testing regularly. Guests passed through our testing stations and received take-away food and hot drinks. 

With emergency funding from both The National Lottery Community Fund and MHCLG Winter Transformation Fund 2020/21, we were delighted to open a Covid-safe winter night shelter by renting 17 en-suite rooms in a local hotel which agreed to transform two of those rooms into an office space. Two of our Advocates were based there Monday to Friday so that shelter guests did not need to travel daily by public transport to the NEWday site. NEWday still operated face-to-face appointments for those who needed them. Because of our strict Covid measures, none of our 24 shelter guests contracted the virus. 

The UK Government relaxed Covid restrictions in Spring and Summer 2021 which allowed us to resume gardening at NEWday. Thanks to Westfield East Bank Creative Futures Fund, guests benefitted from weekly workshops in the BDCA community garden, located adjacent to the NEWday site. The workshops provided an amazing opportunity for our guests to gain new skills and knowledge, reactivate physically and socially, and improve their mental health. 

We continued to name Bonny Downs Baptist Church building as our registered correspondence address for homeless service users or those without a fixed abode, allowing them to apply for identity documents, bank accounts and benefits. 

## **RESHAPING. Delivery Partners | Staff | Governance.** 

## **Delivery Partners** 

The period 2020/21 has been a time of rapid growth and change for NEWway. We began it very well embedded in a commissioned local consortium with BDCA, Salvation Army Stratford, and Skills Enterprise. This consortium had been commissioned by the London Borough of Newham in the previous two years and had enjoyed many wonderful opportunities: NEWday was growing, the partnerships with the local authority saw an increase in our service offer to assess and support many who were experiencing rough sleeping and homelessness. We moved all staff posts into NEWday’s 

5 



commissioned relationship with LBN, and expanded NEWday to provide the onsite assessment, support, and care planning to the wider homeless community, as well as to manage referrals into NEWdawn. 

Growing monitoring requirements, Covid changes and internal remodelling among the individual members of our local consortium meant that we sadly saw the end of our significant relationships with Salvation Army Stratford and Skills Enterprise by the end of August 2020, as both charities faced new demands for different responses and provisions to the other groups of people whom they served. We were sad to see them go, and NEWday had to find another venue. Thankfully BDCA was able to welcome us back to the Bobby Moore Pavilion in East Ham for 5 days a week from September 2020. We also entered a more formal Memorandum of Understanding with BDCA in order to complete the consortium tasks in the timeframe. Additionally, we entered into a service level agreement with the Ascension Community Trust to deliver free welfare benefit advice for our homeless guests 3 times per week. 

In September 2020, we were informed by the LBN that the Rough Sleeping Services would be subject to a new process of tender for commissioning which would conclude in August 2021. This announcement was full of possibility for us – we could see it securing the NEWday Centre provision for 3-5 years and embed our work within the Integrated Rough Sleeping Service in Newham. As we considered our role, it reminded us to maintain our unique, relational, and responsive offer to the homeless people in our community. It was our priority to join with like-minded organisations and maintain a local voice and grassroots response and so we embarked upon the tender process with CGL and others. 

Previously BDCA had been the lead partner for the local consortium, but as the new tender process was for integrating rough sleeping services, it became obvious that NEWway should be the lead in the new process, especially that most of the staff who would deliver were employed by NEWway. 

All our hopes and hard work came to pass. On 1[st] June 2021, LBN announced that CGL was the successful Lead Partner, in close relationship with Caritas Anchor House. Praxis, Bounce Back and NEWway (with support from BDCA) all hold subcontracts. This newly commissioned partnership launched on 1[st] September 2021. 

## **Staffing** 

The NEWday staff team enjoyed additional training in immigration matters so that in April 2021, NEWway formed a partnership with The Renewal Programme and Caritas Anchor House to run free immigration advice for rough sleepers in Newham under a new GLA Immigration Advice for Rough Sleepers Fund. We were able to increase the hours of specialist support we delivered. Our existing team grew into more tailored roles, including specialist case work, data collection and evaluation, marketing, web design and fundraising. 

In September 2020, our team expanded with a new part time Advisor for the Private Rented Sector, funded by Deutsche Bank Opportunity Fund, and a part time specialist Welfare Benefits Advisor.

On 30 June 2021, there were 7 people directly delivering the NEWway activities. This equals 6.25 Full Time Equivalents. Other individuals from BDCA (as we are still in the local consortium) brought their vital contributions too, for which we are very grateful. 

With the challenges of leading a new commissioning process, a growing staff team and expanding portfolio of work we needed to appoint a director to guide and oversee our service and its delivery. Our founder, Angie Allgood had been covering many of those tasks through her role as Chair, and through her employment with BDCA. However, the demands of the work required a more focussed and defined role. We drafted a job description and began to explore possible grant funding options for such a post. Sadly, our grant applications were unsuccessful, and we negotiated with BDCA for Angie to be seconded into the Director’s role with NEWway for 24 hours a week, for a period from 4[th] January 2021 to 30[th] June 2021. Our Trustees agreed to fund this from our reserves and review. 

## **Trustees** 

Trustees completed a skills audit with a view to recruiting new members. Following the resignation of Captain Jonathan Raggett (SA) as an advisor, we invited two people to consider joining the board in Spring 2021. Both have a wealth of experience of being with NEWway, and a passion to see lives transformed. (They both accepted in September 2021.) 

## **NEW STRUCTURE & IMPACT** 

NEWdawn. The church-led winter night shelter remains as a seasonal offer. It is grant-funded and run by its own Manager. It provides a welcoming and warm space for guests who otherwise would have nowhere else to go. Between 8th December 2020 and 11th March 2021, we accommodated 24 guests at the winter night shelter. For 84 nights, we provided 1,428 hot dinners and breakfast. We gave out 100 x £25 Tesco vouchers for the guests to buy lunches during lockdown. Out of the 24 guests, 20 were supported into long-term housing solutions and 3 into employment. We saw 4 guests reconnecting either to another Borough or to their homeland. 

Part of the project’s vision is to join in partnership with Green Pastures to purchase and manage a 2- bedroom property in Newham as our own move-on option for shelter guests. The NEWdawn Manager will be supported by NEWday colleagues and Host Churches volunteers. The response will apply our ethos and show the amazing support Newham Host Churches provide to the homeless community. 

NEWday remained a commissioned consortium between NEWway Project and BDCA with the former becoming the main signatory. 

Between 1st July 2020 and 30th June 2021, NEWday Centre was visited by 387 individual guests. 160 were new to our services, 157 received housing advice, 106 - benefit advice, 104 - debt and money management advice, 58 - immigration support, 42 – support to access the private rented sector, 41 - employment support, 30 had tenancy sustainment sessions, and 14 maintained substance misuse recovery. 

75% of these guests had their health and wellbeing improved by accessing adequate medical services, attending different local activities, and being accommodated and relieved from homelessness.

NEWlife blossoms through Jonny Adams’ work with current and former guests. 13 guests participated in the gardening workshops funded by the Westfield East Bank Community Fund during this accounting period. All the guests enjoyed the sessions, saying that they helped as they recover from Covid isolation and deteriorated mental health. Three of them became employed part time by NEWlife to do gardening in fulfilment of local one-off commissions. This is a very exciting development for all concerned. 

## **A FURTHER NOTE ON OUR CORE VALUES** 

The NEWway work is shaped around our core values. 

## **Why We Do What We Do** 

We believe that everyone is made in the image of God and deserves to be treated with dignity. To have a safe place to stay with support and opportunities to create a better future for themselves. Unfortunately, in our community there is an increasing amount of housing injustice, and many people are forced to sleep on the street. NEWway is attempting to tackle homelessness and hopelessness by coordinating a network of host churches where local rough sleepers can have: - 

- a safe place to sleep 

- friendly company and advocacy support throughout the coldest months of the year when they are most vulnerable 

- year-round support services to help people rediscover their hope and dignity so they can overcome the challenges that hold them back from securing stable accommodation. 

## **Faith Statement** 

In order to further clarify our ‘Why’, we have created a faith statement. 

NEWway is founded upon a Christian ethos and local churches play a crucial role in the delivery of our services. 

Our projects are open to all people who meet our referral criteria regardless of their background. We never prioritise or limit our support for people of any particular faith. 

We actively encourage people of all faiths and none to volunteer, donate and actively contribute towards our projects. 

Our aim is to show God’s love in action and not to push our beliefs onto the people we serve. As part of our desire to offer a holistic service that addresses our guests’ spiritual needs as well as their immediate physical needs, we offer unpressurised opt-in opportunities for people to explore faith with us through prayer, discussion and open invitations to the host church services. We signpost people to whichever faith expression they espouse or wish to explore. 

Although these actions take up a tiny proportion of what we do, we embrace them as another way of helping the whole person in their journey of life. [We note the transformational work of Jon Kuhrt and of Carwyn Gravell’s report ‘Lost & Found’ in this regard. They encourage Third Sector charities to make space for the spiritual lives of their guests. See Lemos&Crane - Lost and Found: faith and spirituality in the lives of homeless people (lemosandcrane.co.uk)]

## **+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++** 

## **Risk** 

The Trustees have given due consideration to the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied those systems, policies and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks. 

## **Reserves** 

It is the policy of the charity that general funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent of three to six-month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, the charity’s activities can continue while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds can be raised. 

## **Financial Review** 

The charity succeeded in negotiations with Homeless Link to provide Grant funding to cover a significant part of our night shelter costs in 2020/21. This enabled us to negotiate Covidsecure space in a local hotel. The ongoing grant from LBN in consortium with Bonny Downs Community Association has made a major difference to the support we have been able to provide and the services that we have been able to run throughout the year. This funding is expected to continue for 2021/22, however the trustees feel that a higher level of reserves is required to ensure a smooth shut down of services should this funding not be forthcoming. 

The free reserves carried forward into 2021/22 are £70,106 which represent three months of the coming years operational budget. 

## **ROUND UP OF POST END-DATE EVENTS** 

September 2021 brought major changes. LB Newham’s tender process was won by Change Grow Live (CGL) who, with Caritas Anchor House, were commissioned to provide the Integrated Rough Sleeping Service and Pathway. Praxis, Bounce Back and NEWday are subcontractors for Working Package 3. This is funded on a yearly basis, dependent on meeting KPI’s and funding availability for the next 3 to 5 years. This offers greater stability for our work, and we are pleased to be so well placed with such excellent partners. 

NEWway secured a grant from DLUHC Homelessness Winter Transformation Fund 2021/22 to open NEWdawn for the second year in a hotel, providing Covid-safe temporary accommodation. 

We finalised our partnership with Green Pastures for purchasing property to house homeless people.

Two new trustees with excellent credentials, Timothy Wood and Agnieszka Pogorzelska, were added to our number. 

_I trust you are encouraged to read something of our story this year! None of it was possible without brilliant staff and partners – we remain grateful to them all._

## **NEWway Project** 

## **Independent Examiner’s Report 2021** 

To the Trustees. 

I report on the accounts of NEWway for the year ended 30th June 2021 which are set out in the following pages. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustee and Examiner** 

The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011, “the 2011 Act”, and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act: and 

- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you 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, which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

To keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the companies Act 2006; and 

To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the SORP (FRS102) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" issued in March 2015. 

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