Annual Review
Meals on Wheels
During the last financial year we received funding from Forever Manchester and The Strong Foundation which enabled us to provide a Meals on Wheels service (delivered on foot) service for the elderly and vulnerable in our community who were shielding. We quickly adapted and found out that this service was highly needed and would be essential for some time. After speaking to our users we have been advised that this service is a lifeline to some and they couldn’t do without it. We actually enjoy delivering the meals to our customers whose eyes light up when you arrive with their food and have a quick chat. The Trustees have agreed to continue this service for as long as it is needed. We are currently looking for volunteers who would like to deliver our menus and the orders.
Thank you from The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
On the 7[th] December we were kindly invited by Fareshare to attend a virtual event to thank us for the support we had offered our community through the COVID-19 Pandemic. During lockdown we continued with our food deliveries from Fareshare and distributed the food into parcels which were delivered to families who were struggling. We also used some of the food to start our Meals on Wheels service which helped the vulnerable and elderly. This not only offered them food but also gave them the chance to see a friendly face every day. Little did we know that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were visiting to express their thanks to everyone for their hard work. There was also a special performance by Wayne Ellington and Manchester Inspirational voices, presented by Band on the Wall.
Incubation Hub
The Tatton continues to pride ourselves in helping small local businesses develop and provides rooms to hire on a long term basis. We currently have two long term lettings a local hair dresser and mosaic artist.
5* Hygiene Rating
We continue to hold our 5* Hygiene Rating with Salford Council and pride ourselves on the highest standards of food hygiene and cleanliness. This is testament to our team as a whole as they work continuously to maintain our high standard.

Christmas Lunches
This year due to restrictions we were unable to run our Christmas Activities and lunches. We didn’t want our elderly and vulnerable to miss out as they really enjoy the Christmas lunches. We decided to continue making the lunches and personally deliver them along with a card and small gift. This was thoroughly enjoyed by all. We would like to thank Dickanson Charity for providing a grant to support this project.
New Kitchen Equipment
The Trustees completed and were successful in an application to Forever Manchester to renew our very old and much worn kitchen appliances. Our kitchen appliances were installed just before we first opened and were showing signs of getting ready to break, which would mean we would have had to find the money to replace or stop some of the services we offered. We could not let this happen. If for example our cooker broke, we would be unable to serve food in the café and we would be unable to offer the meals on wheels service. Due to the fact we got all of the equipment from one company we got a really good discount and therefore had underspent on our grant. We went back to Forever Manchester and requested a change of spend and they granted permission. Therefore we were now able to purchase some outdoor furniture, a year’s membership for Fareshare and some smaller kitchen appliances. In March 2021 our new kitchen was installed by a local electrician, the kitchen looks better than ever. We added a few items of equipment which meant we could extend our menu. We hope this equipment last just as long as our last equipment.
Easter
It became apparent in the weeks leading up to Easter than more and more families were struggling financially due to the pandemic. We had an increase in families who were becoming members of The Bread and Butter Thing. A visitor to our project became saddened by this and worried that some children may not receive an Easter Egg when celebrating Easter and so very generously donated 250 Easter Eggs for us to distribute to the families in our community. They also donated £100 worth of baking products to us to allow us to offer handmade desserts to our customers through our meals and wheels service. This was a great help to us and was thoroughly enjoyed by our customers.
The Bread and Butter Thing
The Bread and Butter Thing (TBBT) is a charity that makes life more affordable for people on a low income. Their mission is to create a fair solution for people in poverty and their long-term aim is to address the premiums that people in poverty pay for food, loans, energy and other everyday essentials simply because of their personal circumstances. The Tatton helps to facilitate this scheme to ensure that as many members of our community can benefit as possible. TBBT helps to add support and strength to the fantastic work we already do to improve the general wellbeing and confidence of our community. This scheme has really helped our community especially since COVID. Ordsall was already recognised as a socially deprived area, with low income and high unemployment.
COVID-19 – Small Business Grants
During this financial year we availed of Covid grants from Salford City Council. The total Business Grants we received during this period is £24,370.00.

Achievements and performance
The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on the relief of poverty, creating opportunities and strengthening our community and are undertaken to further The Tatton charitable purposes for the public benefit.
The Tatton was set up initially as Ordsall Community Café to create a safe space for local people to meet and exchange stories over a cup of tea. We are the only organisation that is non-denominational and open to all in our area. Our main customers tend to be families and the elderly and vulnerable.
The heart of our community centre is our café. For 17 years our community café has provided meals for the people of Ordsall. We aim to:
-
Fight Food Poverty and Encouraging Healthy Eating – We try to make food available to people who couldn’t afford to eat at regular restaurants. No matter how little money you have you can always find a meal suitable. Obtaining food from Fareshare helps us to make our menu more affordable.
-
Reduce Food Waste – Nearly five million tonnes of food goes to waste each year. Although we can’t stop this on our own we can encourage our community to do their bit. The goals to fighting hunger and reducing food waste go hand in hand. We are members of the Fareshare Community and regularly use perfectly good produce that would otherwise go to landfill. We often hold cookery courses teaching people the differences between the best before and use by and showing that there is nothing wrong with wonky fruit and veg. Feedback from courses we have fun in the past have shown that participants are now thriftier with their food and less likely to waste.
-
Promote Community – we are more than just a café. We are a place where people from all walks of life can meet and talk over a meal. Share live experiences. Feels safe and above all feel part of our community.
Our café continues to offer meals at reduced cost. We also have produce that customers can buy at subsidised prices. We also offer free food and food parcels for those struggling.
Volunteers
The Tatton requires the help of Volunteers. Our volunteering programme seized for a brief period during lockdown however once restrictions were lifted we came across people who wanted to help. Our volunteers come in all shapes and sizes. Our oldest volunteer is over 80 and our youngest volunteer is 6 years old. Many of our volunteers go on to paid employment. We offer all our volunteers full training and support throughout their time with us.
Why do people volunteer at The Tatton?
-
To increase confidence
-
To try something new
-
To get out the house, meet new people and make friends
-
To help the community
-
To gain experience to allow them to apply for paid work
What volunteering opportunities do we have?
-
Helping in the café – serving customers, preparing food and cleaning our café area.
-
Helping in our office with administration.
-
Helping with The Bread and Butter
-
Delivering our Meals on Wheels menu/food.

for the year ended 31 July 2021
Our volunteers have advised that they love being a part of Team Café and that they now feel like they have accomplished something. Our staff and volunteers have worked together to meet the needs of the community, reaching an end goal by working as a team. This has created lasting friendships.
We are very much looking forward to opening up our Volunteering programme once restrictions begin to lift. We have some exiting plans for our future and this involves volunteers.

Financial review
This year has resulted in a surplus of £20,807, leaving £40,386 total funds at the end of the year, £15,717 were held for restricted purposes. In a very difficult financial time with limited opportunities to fundraise we were supported very generously by Government and Local Authority Grants. We would like to express our sincere thanks to both as this has allowed us to plan for the future in a very difficult environment due to the pandemic.
Investment Policy
We do not currently have an investment policy.
Reserves policy
We have now opened a reserve account and intend to transfer any money received through Salford Council for the Small Business Grants into this account. We currently have £12,074.00 in this account. The Trustees have agreed that this money will be kept in the reserve account until it is needed.
The trustees have not got a set reserves policy in place for 2021 but this is being developed going forward.
Plans for the future
Activities
This year has presented significant challenges for everyone, particularly our members and the community we serve. The unprecedented worldwide health response to the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant economic disruption. The impact of the lockdowns and restrictions have not been the same for everyone and neither will the impact of things opening back up. For some groups, significant barriers to experiencing good health and wellbeing remain. Current Government guidelines are constantly changing and it is unlikely we will be able to provide the type of activities we provided to the year end of December 2019. We are very much looking forward to opening The Tatton back up as a community centre, facilitating courses and hosting community events for all to enjoy.
Fundraising
During the last financial year and this financial year we have been unable to generate the normal levels of income and this is likely to continue into the next financial year. Our Trustees have had to concentrate their efforts on grant applications which include Forever Manchester. We have also

The Tatton
Trustees’ annual report
for the year ended 31 July 2021
continued to receive small business grants from Salford Council. Our Trustees have been working with Salford CVS to complete an application to The National Lottery Community Fund to fund our project over a three year period.
We recognise the need to look more closely and monitor all our regular outgoings and intend to contact our main suppliers to review tariffs and charges to ensure The Tatton is receiving the most cost efficient packages, in particular, our utilities.

This has been disclosed and approved by the Trustees and The Charity Commission.
Remuneration policy for key management personnel
The position of Project Leader was considered to be our Key Management Personnel but after resignation this role was delegated and managed by the Trustees who took no remuneration.
We have no company vehicles and journeys made for business purposes are paid in expenses to cover petrol costs. These payments are made to Samantha Hickey.
Risk management
The Trustees have given consideration to financial risks exposed to The Tatton and are satisfied that such risks have been evaluated and regularly reviewed and monitored.
As with other charities, we are facing uncertainties which come with the COVID pandemic. This includes the charity being unable to operate due to restrictions and/or outbreaks amongst the staff. This could lead to the closure of the charity due to loss of income and funding. We have worked hard to build in contingency plans for the most likely risks and, so far, have been able to deal with situations which have arisen.
We are in a much stronger financial position than in July 2020, having almost doubled our funds. We have ambitions; once the economy opens and we can operate freely without Government restrictions whereby we would initiate a number of activities and fundraising events.
The long term viability of The Tatton is an ongoing risk and we are fully aware of our statutory obligations in this event.
Funds held as custodian trustee on behalf of others
The Tatton does not hold funds as Custodian Trustees on behalf of others.

Statement of responsibilities of the trustees
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the period and of its financial position at the end of the period. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice 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 operation
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. 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 corporate 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.

The Tatton
Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 July 2021
1 Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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), second edition - October 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The charity has applied the exemption available to small charities in the Charities SORP (FRS 102) and does not include a Statement of Cash Flows in these Financial Statements.
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a 'true and fair view' and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following 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), second edition - October 2019, rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Tatton meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. No Key judgments which the trustees have made which have a significant effect on the accounts.
The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 July 2021 (continued)
c Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
d Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
e Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
