Grants of up to £500 are available to residents of St Matthews and up to £1,000 for organisations to run activities for residents. The total annual grant funding to help deliver our vision is £10,000. All activities must be open to all communities on the Estate and must be advertised. A wide selection of grants has been awarded to both local residents and voluntary organisations which all help to provide positive activities locally and help us to deliver our Vision. More information about our grants programme can be seen here: https://www.stmatthewsbiglocal.com/smblgrants ## **The Main Achievements of the Charity** St Matthews Big Local (Leicester) continues to make a real difference to people’s lives. It has given people new skills and opportunities. We continue to deliver on our Big Local Plan priorities, and we have been successful in securing significant additional funding for staffing and additional activities above and beyond the plan. In 2020, we recruited two sports coaches and adapted our service delivery to respond to the needs of the community due to the Covid-19 pandemic. ## **Review of the Past Year** St Matthews Big Local (Leicester) continues to impact people’s lives in very positive ways by creating opportunities for local people to acquire and develop new skills as well as to improve and strengthen existing ones. The priorities identified within our Big Local Plan have been our focus. Additionally, our skills and ability in seeking, 2 identifying and acquiring additional funding for staffing and extra activities above and beyond the Local Plan, remain a success. In 2019/20 we secured over £100k for staffing costs and additional projects and £6k from donations in cash or kind from the following donors: - De Montfort University – Community Cinema and other donations - Phoenix Arts – Food donations - Ward Committee - Xmas meal / Coronavirus Emergency Funding - Sport England - Sports Engagement Workers - Police & Crime Commissioner - VRN Project Aspire - Leicester City Council - Sustainable travel grant - Neighbourly Community Fund - Coronavirus support - National Emergencies Trust LRCF - Coronavirus support - Seven Trent - Coronavirus Community Support Fund - Hastings Direct - Coronavirus support, Welfare Rights Project, PPE, core costs - The National Lottery Community Fund Awards for all - Coronavirus - supporting St Matthews future - Martin Lewis Emergency Fund - Coronavirus support - National Emergencies Trust LRCF - Welfare Rights and Advice Project - Leicester City Council Community Mobilisation Fund - Foodbank provision - Tudor Trust – Staffing and Coronavirus support - National Lottery Community Fund - Neighbourhood Co-ordinator - Various other small donations – via donation tins, sponsorship, food etc. We have continued to support a range of regular ongoing activities including financial support for a credit union, a youth panel, access to training via LASALS, the food bank and an Elders’ Lunch Club and a very successful Women’s Community Café which puts on a range of activities, events and trips. We were also successful in getting Sport England Funding for a Sports and Volunteer Inclusion Coach and an Assistant Coach to deliver a year-long Sports Workforce Diversity Project. The coaches delivered 3 sessions per day, Monday to Friday aimed at male and female participants. Sessions included, football coaching, table tennis, walking, tennis, Rounders, Cricket and Fitness. The project has engaged with 316 male and 30 female residents. Nine male and three female volunteers have been identified, completed an induction course, Mental Health in Sport course, Open University Sports Psychology course and four are enrolled onto a Level 1 Coaching Football Certificate course. One volunteer will be going on to secure employment within the organisation. We would like to thank the Police Crime Commissioner's Office, who through the violence Reduction Network, awarded a grant to deliver ‘Project Aspire’. The project is a sport mentoring preventative intervention, working with 13 – 25-year-olds who are disengaged or close to disengagement from society and at risk of falling into youth crime and drug/gang related activity. The project motivated and inspired young people to discover and develop their strengths and to make the most of their potential by developing their skills and confidence. Project Aspire engaged 83 young people through a structured weekly programme of sports sessions, educational, personal development and leadership workshops. The interactive educational workshops allowed us to deliver key messages around racism, drugs awareness, stereotyping, stop and search, gangs and knife crime as well as the negative effects of such behaviour and the lasting impact of this behaviour on themselves, their families and their community. 3 The leadership workshops developed their capacity to deliver a community event aimed at their peers. The mentoring element of the project had a positive impact on the emotional health and well-being of all participants. Through the mentoring, participants were nurtured to become leaders in the community and act as positive role models to younger members of the community. Through the planning of the football tournament for younger members of the community, participants developed their ideas and then presented these ideas back to the group. This really helped build their leadership, confidence and communication skills, with many having never presented before a group of their peers before. The local police attended the workshops and sports sessions to develop strong bonds and relationships with the participants. The young people reacted well to this as it provided a platform where they got to know the officers on a personal level. As the relationship between the officers and participants developed, the young people were able to confidently ask questions and, more importantly, challenge the police on issues that have been affecting their lives. This certainly helped to foster more respect for the police and vice versa. Project Aspire has helped to build a stronger community by bringing young people together from different backgrounds, making them feel better about where they live, improving community links and cohesion and building social capital. Unfortunately, many of our planned activities had to be suspended or cancelled. In March 2020 we had to adapt to the Covid-19 pandemic and began to offer emergency support and provisions to the community. Some staff were furloughed but we managed to stay open to support the community through such a difficult time. Much of the funding awarded since March 2020 has been to develop our food provision and to extend our foodbank. The pandemic has contributed to a reduction in our income from room and MUGA hire. Our grants programme continued to be less successful than we hoped, and though it has encouraged organisations and individuals to deliver projects that benefit the community, we have decided not to continue with it going forward after the funding has been used. Due to Covid-19, this year has seen a reduction in the number of additional activities and events we have been able to deliver in order to achieve our Big Local Plan priorities and objectives. Since March 2020 we have provided weekly meals and telephone support, an extended food bank, a free community food table and fridge several times a week as well as school holiday breakfast grab bags. Other activities during the September 2019 to August 2020 period included: - LCFC Community Trust – programme of sports activities - Everybody's reading workshop - Half Term Fun and Food - First Aid Training - Community cinema - Children's Xmas Party - Xmas dinner - English Classes - Philharmonia Orchestra Workshops - Women's café half term event - Clean up days - Safe and secure cycle events 4 Across all of our activities from September 2019 to August 2020 we have reached in total nearly 6000 residents, supported by nearly 90 volunteers, 7 part-time staff and an active Board of Trustees. ## **Contribution Made by Volunteers** Due to the global pandemic and high rates of infections in the area, our keen volunteers were not able to participate in many volunteering opportunities. However, they were kept supported via regular telephone contact. Volunteering continues to be an integral part of the Charity’s work. The volunteer Board of Trustees remain central to offering strategic vision and direction to the Charity. The additional challenges presented by the Covid-19 meant that they had to adapt their style of working to meet more frequently via online forums. Additionally, there has been ongoing voluntary input from the local Police and Police Community Support Officers, as well as local residents who willingly give their time to supporting and offering practical help with various activities and events. For the period September 2019 to August 2020, the charity’s bank of local volunteers contributed over 1040 hours of voluntary time to assist with various projects and activities. Volunteers have also been instrumental in helping to service the Charity’s Emergency Food Bank which offers support to families in need, a number of whom are Universal Credit claimants. The various agencies operating on St Matthews are also able to gain 24/7 access to the facility to assist families and individuals in crisis. Between September 2019 and August 2020 two Youth Forum meetings were held. These meetings were supported by four dedicated volunteers. The Youth Forum is designed to engage and empower young people (9-17 years) who reside on the St Matthews estate to take an active role in making decisions, developing projects/programmes and initiatives that are deemed to improve their quality of life and the lives of other residents. Due to the global pandemic, coupled with local restrictions, youth forum meetings and activities had to be suspended. The Charity’s Food Holiday Programmes from September 2019 to August 2020 have been a tremendous success, made possible with the involvement, help and support from our bank of volunteers who worked tirelessly with the Charity and partner agencies in providing hot meals, brunches and food parcels, for children on St Matthews estate. Additionally, volunteer support enabled the Charity to continue its extended food provision throughout the various ‘lockdowns’ which the City of Leicester experienced over the period of the global pandemic. One Estate Clean-up/Improvement Day was held during the period September 2019 and August 2020. A total of seven agencies supported this event by involving 18 members of their staff team on a voluntary basis. Support was also received from residents. St Matthew’s collaborative working with other agencies supported by volunteers, during September 2019, resulted in the hosting of a music workshop with the Philharmonia Orchestra and an animation workshop with the Phoenix Arts Centre. Both events were held at St Matthews House and were well attended by local residents (children and adults). Safe cycling and repair events held during the period September 2019 to August 2020 were supported by residents including young people. At least two volunteers supported both events. The first event was oversubscribed in terms of attendance whilst the second event had a poor turnout due to inclement weather. 5 Christmas activity for 2020 was celebrated in a ‘Covid-19 safe way’ whereby, volunteers (dressed in festive costumes) delivered gifts door-to-door to families whilst observing social distancing protocols. ## **Financial Review** ## **Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period** At the end of its second year the Charity increased its unrestricted cash funds by over £10,300. ## **Reserves** The Charity wishes to hold six months general expenses and one month of staff costs in unrestricted funds. It is felt that this level of reserves is necessary because it can often take many months for grant applications to be processed. The trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (free reserves) held by the charity should be between 3 and 6 months of resources expended, which equates to £12,000 to £15,000 in general funds. At this time the Trustees feel that they would be able to continue current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. It is the aim of the charity to meet its reserve target in January 2021, in its third year of operation. ## **Sources of Funding** Currently, the main source of income for the Charity is The Big Local which has £1,000,000 to be used over 10 years to benefit the residents of St Matthews Estate. Expenditure is governed by the Local Plan which has been written and revised after extensive consultation with residents. The final Big Local plan covering the last 4 years of the Big Local project has been approved by Local Trust. There is an estimated £464,000 of funding available. We are grateful for continued funding from The Samworth Brother’s Sports Opportunity Fund for the ongoing maintenance of the St Matthews Multi Use Games Area (MUGA). We continue to receive ongoing donations from Applegreen petrol station customer donations which we are grateful to receive. The worldwide coronavirus pandemic was particularly difficult for our community, not least due to the low income and zero hours contracts but also due to the fact that Leicester has been in some form of perpetual lockdown for nearly a year. We have been particularly grateful to have received financial and in-kind support from many organisations, allowing us to adapt our workplace to be Covid-19 secure and to provide over 17,000 meals and a welfare and benefits advice service to our community at the time of their greatest need. We would like to thank – Leicester and Rutland Community Foundations, Leicester and Rutland Freemasons, Seven Trent Water Community Fund, Wycliffe Ward funding, Phoenix Cinema, Martin Lewis Coronavirus Fund, Tudor Trust, National Lottery Community Fund, Neighbourly, Fareshare, Samworth Brother Sport Fund, Action Homeless, Leicester City Council, McDonalds and Hasting Direct. We have continued to receive funding from Tudor Trust for a grant continuation towards staffing costs and also a grant to help make our premises Covid-19 secure.

The charity opted to adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements ## **1.1 Basis of accounting** These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with: - the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 - and with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. **1.2 Going concern** - The Charity is a going concern. ## **Note 2: Accounting policies** **2.1 Income:** This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity **Recognition of income:** These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: - the charity becomes entitled to the resources; - it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and - the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Offsetting: There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. **Grants and donations:** Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS 102 SORP). In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). **Legacies:** Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. **Tax reclaims on donations and gifts:** Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. **Contractual income and performance related grants:** This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. 11 **Government grants:** The charity has received the following government grants in the reporting period. |Coronavirus Job Retention scheme

**8,843**
**20,000**| |---|---| ||**28,843**| **Donated goods:** Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. Goods donated for ongoing use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. **Gifts in kind:** for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. **Donated services and facilities:** Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. **Volunteer help:** The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. **Income from interest, royalties and dividends:** This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. **Settlement of insurance claims:** Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS 102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. ## **2.3 Expenditure and liabilities** **Liability recognition:** Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. **Support costs:** The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. **Governance and support costs:** Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have either been charged directly to funds or allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources. **Grants with performance conditions:** Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. **Grants payable without performance conditions:** Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. **Redundancy cost** : The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. 12 **Deferred income:** No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. **Creditors:** The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts. **Provisions for liabilities:** A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date **Basic financial instruments:** The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS 102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS 102 SORP. ## **2.4 Assets** **Tangible fixed assets for use by charity:** These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £800. They are valued at cost. **The depreciation rates** are 20% for fixtures and fittings, equipment and property improvements, 33.3% for electronic equipment and 4% on the MUGA measured on a straight line basis. **Debtors:** Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. ## **Note 3 Analysis of income** |**Donations and legacies:**
