Page 1 **DOVER OUTREACH CENTRE** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 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** ## **Objectives and aims** To promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society. Please refer to the Chairman's report for a summary of the main activities undertaken in the year. We confirm that the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. ## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** Please refer to the Chairman's report for a summary of the main achievements of the charity in the year. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Principal funding sources** For details of the charity's principal funding sources, please refer to the Chairman's report following these financial statements. ## **Reserves policy** The charity's policy is to maintain a reserves level equivalent to at least 6 months of operational expenditure. ## **FUTURE PLANS** Although we are comfortable that we have the resources to properly manage all of our activities, and those that are coming on stream in 2023, we believe it is right that in 2023 and perhaps early 2024, we take a pause to consolidate and improve further our operational procedures so we can best service all the current projects in hand. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. ## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** New trustees are appointed by the existing trustees. Nominees are asked to prepare a statement of why they want to join the trustee board and what they feel they have to offer it. This is shared with existing trustees for discussion. ## **Organisational structure** For the charity's organisational structure, please refer to the Chairman's report following these financial statements. ## **Decision making** The board of trustees takes responsibility for making decisions for the charity. ## **Induction and training of new trustees** Induction is by meeting with the chair of trustees to receive an overview of the charity, attending trustee meetings, and they are encouraged to read the Charity Commission's guidance on what is involved in being a trustee. ## **Key management remuneration** For details of the charity's key management remuneration, please refer to the Chairman's report following these financial statements. ## **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. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS** **Registered Charity number** 1168737 ## **Principal address** Victory House 168 Snargate Street Dover Kent CT17 9BZ Page 2 DOVER OUTREACH CEIURE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 Trust8•s J S ShilliNJ P H WalLxe J Jowètt S Sheffiekl lreSKJ￿d 30.9.20221 G May Iresigned 22.9.20231 J E Donahjson {app￿￿ted 11.3.20231 J G Prysa lappoinled 11.3.20231 R A Jones (appointed 9.6.20221 A Boxall lapwnted 9.6.20231 Independ•nt Examln•r Peter Acoll FCCA SHPD Accountants 10 Littleboume Ro•J Maidslone Kent ME14 5QP Approved by orderolthe board olbL￿tea5 on 22 S•pteml)er 2023 antl swJn8d ts b•hatt by..

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. Page 4 ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DOVER OUTREACH CENTRE** ## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Dover Outreach Centre** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Dover Outreach Centre (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022. ## **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'). I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 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: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 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. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. **P** e **t** er **A** co **tt FCCA** SHPD Accountants 10 Littlebourne Road Maidstone Kent ME14 5QP 22 September 2023 Page 5 **DOVER OUTREACH CENTRE** ## **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** |**2022**

ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN NET FUNDS** The notes form part of these financial statements Page 9 **DOVER OUTREACH CENTRE** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** ## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** ## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value. ## **Income** All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. ## **Expenditure** Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. ## **Taxation** The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. ## **Fund accounting** Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. ## **2.** ## **DONATIONS AND LEGACIES** |Donations

We have expanded our housing portfolio allowing us a range of accommodation options, took on two special roles in the town, and we continue to look for projects that fit with our ethos. ## **Sunrise Cafe** Our cafe did well throughout the year, and we had employed 5 members of staff by the end of 2022. Additional support is undertaken by a rota of willing and invaluable volunteers. We provide a number of free and discounted meals every day in line with our “pay what you can afford” model, and our regular clients have a tab so that we can keep track of what they are spending – this is reclaimed from them when their benefits come in. Meals are prepared with purchased and supermarket surplus food. This year we started offering an external catering service and have become the preferred provider for several organisations, including Dover Harbour Board and Dover Town Council. This has proved to be an important revenue stream for the Cafe. ## **Ukrainian Reception Centre and Warm Hub** In March, DOC became the Ukrainian Reception Centre for the town. Funding was received from DDC, and we ran 24 hours a day, employing staff to cover the welcome desk. Although most Ukrainian refugees were able to go straight to host families, a number needed help and called in when necessary. We extended this offering by running Ukrainian support meetings (for Ukrainians settling in the Dover area) every Thursday afternoon at the Sunrise Cafe. Refreshments were provided, and it offered an opportunity to seek support, welfare assistance and advice. Towards the end of the year, it was clear that local residents would need support during the cost-ofliving crisis, and again with the financial help of DDC, we extended the Sunrise Cafe’s opening hours to offer a warm hub. One member of staff became full time to cover these hours and the financial support allowed us to continue our pay what you can afford model. ## **Outreach Centre** The Centre continues to work with a range of individuals, including locals, regional and national clients along with foreign nationals from the EU and beyond, and numbers range from 3 to 23 people a week. We have supported wherever we can, helped many into accommodation and moved some home to other parts of the UK, and repatriated others to their home nations. Our Centre manager offers consistency to the centre, and she works with a mix of staff and volunteers. We engaged a new empowerment worker early in the year, and in addition to supporting our clients in accommodation, he meets with churches and local groups to help develop support networks. Collaboration with the local authority and other agencies continues to be important to us and runs smoothly. The table below shows the outcomes for the clients we worked with in 2022. 18 **Dover Outreach Centre** Victory House, 168 Snargate Street, Dover, CT17 9BZ Charity Reg No.1168737 www.doveroutreachcentre.org Tel: 01304 339022 ## **Victory House supported accommodation** We had a good year where we were able to provide an adequate amount of support to our residents. We officially became supported accommodation, and as a result, a higher level of housing benefit is paid directly to us for each resident. In 2022, we saw eleven residents move on. Four went into move on accommodation, 2 into council property, 3 into private rented accommodation, 1 into a nursing home and 1 into other supported accommodation. We hope to be able to increase these numbers year on year. Our Support Worker made the decision to leave DOC at the end of the year but we were able to recruit a replacement to start in early 2023. Our franchise with Hope into Action did not progress as we had hoped, as we found it difficult to secure an appropriate property in Dover. At the end of the year we started trustee discussions on ending the franchise. ## **Oban House** The Home Group organisation owns two large residential properties in Dover, and we initiated discussions with them to explore the option of taking on one of them, Oban House, on a long term lease. The lease was signed in June and the ten bedsits were fully refurbished and ready for occupation by 1[st] August 2022. We moved in tenants who had lower support needs than those at Victory House, and it serves as a good “move on” property when Victory House tenants are ready. ## **Suffolk House, our new base for the Winter Night shelter** In the third quarter of the year, we approached Home Group again about taking on a lease for the second of their properties, Suffolk House. The property is on the main road through Dover and offers ten bedrooms and a self-contained flat in the basement. It required substantial refurbishment, and costs for that, as well as for operating the night shelter, were secured by a grant from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. We employed a Service Manager who lives in the flat, and we got the property ready for operation as a night shelter by December 4[th] . Local church members provided evening meals every day, and residents were able to have breakfast at the Sunrise Cafe. Dover Outreach Centre has entered into an agreement with Dover District Council to provide emergency temporary accommodation to be used to house homeless people in the Dover area when Suffolk House is not being used for the Winter Night Shelter. This will come into operation in March 2023. **Dover Outreach Centre** 19 Victory House, 168 Snargate Street, Dover, CT17 9BZ Charity Reg No.1168737 www.doveroutreachcentre.org Tel: 01304 339022 ## **Roman Quay** The Roman Quay is an old public house in the centre of Dover which has been empty for a number of years. DDC invited bids for a long term lease on the property, and we found out in September that ours had been accepted. Our proposal was to offer the flat above the pub to vulnerable women, and The Beehive, run by The Vineyard Church, will take on an under-lease to offer a pre-loved, quality women’s clothing boutique and cafe on the ground floor. It is expected that the lease will be signed in 2023. ## **The Bridge** This is a meeting that takes place at the Outreach Centre on a Sunday afternoon. The aim is to explore life and faith and several people have been invited to share their faith stories. ## **Staffing** At the end of 2022 we employed 14 people. Noel Beamish offers his services as our CEO, but is not considered a member of staff. The breakdown of staff by role is shown below. **----- Start of picture text -----**

They are responsible for meeting with Noel Beamish on a regular basis to discuss progress and issues, and we hold four full team meetings a year. By September 2023 the number of trustees had increased to eight. We are always on the lookout for new trustees, and rely on personal recommendations for this. Any nominees are asked to prepare a statement of what they felt they could offer the board and this is shared with existing trustees for discussion. Induction is by meeting with the chair of trustees to receive an overview of DOC, attending trustee meetings, and they are encouraged to read the Charity Commission’s guidance on what is involved in being a trustee. The board of trustees takes responsibility for making decisions for DOC. ## **Organisational structure** ## **Future plans** Although we are comfortable that we have the resources to properly manage all of our activities, and those that are coming on stream in 2023, we believe it is right that in 2023 and perhaps early 2024, we take a pause to consolidate and improve further our operational procedures so we can best service all the current projects in hand.
