A word from our Chair Justin Richards

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to warmly welcome you to our Annual Report for 2022-23. This past year has again been one of challenge and change as we emerged from the pandemic, we were all faced with the cost of living crisis.

Before we get into the details, I must express my heartfelt thanks to my fellow trustees who all volunteer their time and skills to support the trust. In this year our we have broadened our connections with other voluntary groups and we are immensely grateful to them for their support. Over the years we have grown an impressive network of volunteers, supporters and donors, we couldn’t do what we do without you.

This past year we have launched the Arts Box, a place for creativity and above all a space where we can support community mental health through art therapy. Our core services have expanded significantly with the Community Shop and shortly we’ll be launching a mobile version thanks to donations via SpaceHive and matched funding from Kent County Council.

I’m also very pleased that we have had an opportunity to support refugees in our community by making the garden accessible for growing culturally significant food and also made available the kitchen for cooking.

As we look forward to 2023/24 the board hopes that the trust will broaden it’s connections with not just other organisations, but other communities. RCT will continue to put the heart in Repton but look forward to bringing communities together.

Chief Executive Beth Rice

It gives me great pleasure to introduce Repton Community Trusts Annual Report in what has been a year of creativity and stability. Our emphasis this year has been on assuring the long-term sustainability of our projects/services and ensuring we were responsive to both the emerging and longer term needs of our communities.

This year has been a time of renewal, bringing people back together and establishing a ‘new normal’ after COVID-19. We have worked extremely hard to raise both valuable funds and then to spend the money very wisely to have maximum impact on the lives of community members. We can celebrate our skills in securing the confidence of funders that has led to year on year growth, allowing us to reach more people.

We started the year working with people in our local communities to create a strategy based on our Theory of Change priority areas.

Reducing food waste and food Insecurity

I am particularly proud of our Food Rescue Project, increasing the supply of surplus or unsold food, rescuing on average 1.7 tonnes of food every month for our food projects! We Improved our food recovery and redistribution process helping to prevent food waste from farms, allotments, supermarkets, and food producers, overcoming barriers to access like transportation, time and increased demand, especially over Winter.

Consultancy and sharing best practice

Community Spaces

Our approach to work Isn't always 'the norm'. We're creative and playful and focus on what matters 'to people' rather than what the matter Is 'with people'. We take time to build trust, develop Ideas from community members and see how things 'play out'. We are looking forward to an exciting year ahead, knowing we are in a great position as a responsive, dynamic charity.

Sustainable Lifestyles

Who We Are

Our aim is to create and provide excellent resources and opportunities, empowering people to connect and build community. The objectives of our charity are to connect people and build a sense of community in the Borough of Ashford and beyond. As well as bringing communities together, Repton Connect Community Centre, run by the Trust, offers opportunities for residents to contribute their knowledge, skills and experience developing educational, social, health and leisure programmes.

Our Theory of Change (ToC) is a specific type of methodology for planning, participation and evaluation that is used to promote social change. Theory of Change defines our long-term goals.

Who We Are

OUR AIM:

Creating and providing excellent resources and opportunities, empowering people to connect and build community

Who We Are

In shaping our objectives and planning the activities to meet those objectives the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. The direct benefits which flow from our purposes are:

a) Improved well-being and health of residents.

b) Creation and use of facilities to increase the sustainable future of communities.

c) Enhancement of employment, training, and volunteering opportunities.

d) Reduced social isolation and increased activities for people.

Structure, Governance, and Management

Governing document

The trust deed is the governing document for the charity and states its overall aims and objectives. Performance monitoring with grant funders and the local authority has been established outside the board setting.

Our governing document informs the creation of our business plan for 2022/23 that establishes:

The budget for operating Repton Community Trust and Repton Connect Community Centre 1• Income targets for hire of the facilities at Repton Connect Community Centre 2• Grant funding requirements for any shortfalls between operating costs and income and for developing broader community programmes 3•

Organisational Structure

The Trust

Repton Community trust was established in September 2016. The board of trustees is made up of volunteers with a wide-ranging skillset and interests. Each trustee brings professional expertise to support the trust to achieve its aims.

The Trust’s activities are overseen by the Board of Trustees that meets quarterly. Working groups for projects meet more frequently outside of board meetings. Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment and Induction of new trustees. Before any advert or invitation Is Issued for new trustees:

An existing skills audit will be updated so it is clear which skills would beneficially augment the current board.

We will assess current representation in terms of equity and diversity across the community.

Organisational Structure

Risk Management

As part of our ongoing responsibility for ensuring the identification and management of risk, the board adopts a rolling assessment of strategic and operational risk which is reviewed at each board meeting.

We have a risk register which details potential risks, potential impact and steps taken to mitigate risk. This includes governance, operational, financial, environmental and compliance risk. In addition to this, individual areas of risk are assessed and monitored by board sub- groups including a finance team which meets monthly and reports directly to the board.

Grant Making Policy

In the current reporting period, the trust made grant awards of £5000 under the umbrella of Ashford Holiday Kitchen, The ACTIVE Project.

Partnerships and Collaborations

Hythe Environmental Community Group

We have formed new partnerships this year to ensure people received the support, help and resources needed whilst dealing with the cost of living crisis and huge economic challenges. One such Initiative is with Hythe Environmental Community Group.

Working with the Gleaners has helped reduce tonnes of food waste and increased our approach to sustainability, our social goal for people to co-exist in our communities for a long time.

The overarching aim of the group is to create a fulfilling, sustainable and environmentally aware place to live. The groups aims to help people reduce their reliance on fossil fuels, reduce excess waste and improve the recycling of waste produced.

Gleaning is the act of collecting leftover crops from farmers’ fields after they have been commercially harvested or in fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest. (Wikipedia) Working together with the gleaning group we receive a share of leftover crops each week and redistribute the produce through our community fridges.

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

Reducing food Insecurity and reducing food waste.

Mobile Community Shop

Increasing the sustainable future of communities.

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact Spacehive Fundraising Campaign-Mobile Community Shop

Following the success of our food projects last year, we needed to find a new way to address food Insecurity in rural areas and areas with poor transport links.

People were telling us they are missing out because they couldn’t get to us. So we needed to get to them! Many people are struggling in rural areas and we needed to reach them.

After some research we decided to under-take a Fundraising Campaign through Spacehive in December 2022 and we were lucky enough to raise £23,051! This included amazing public donations and grant funding through Kent County Council, Hubbub and Feeding Britain. Huge thanks also goes to Ashford Concert Band and 1st Repton Scout Group for raising funds. What we plan to deliver:

We'll convert a van to create a mobile community shop (social supermarket) We'll employ a dedicated member of staff to support the project We'll provide heavily subsidized food, cleaning and hygiene products to people People will have access to additional projects including recipe box schemes

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

Community Shop

Our Community Shop/Social Supermarket provided food, cleaning and hygiene products to 4234 people in 2022/23.

Towards the end of the year we secured funding from Ashford Borough Council to support vulnerable people through The Governments Household Support Fund. This enabled us to increase our supply of food over Winter which was a time of increased pressure. We were also able to meet more cultural, dietary and hygiene needs through a grant from The Hans and Julia Rausing Trust. This grant particularly supported members of refugee communities living in local hotels with no cooking facilities.

We began working with the UK charity Feeding Britain, designing our new mobile shop pilot project and becoming part of their Mobile Food Network. By sharing knowledge with others, and using it to work for systemic changes at a national level, we are working together to ensure hunger becomes a thing of the past.

‘’ Your project really helped me when I needed it. As a single mum having to isolate from COVID-19, I had no family/friends to help me. The fact that you can deliver really helps. I will donate back to you when I’m better’’.

-Community Member

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

Peoples Pantry

Throughout the year our Peoples Pantry Foodbank continued to provide people with free emergency parcels. The pantry delivered 381 free parcels of food, cleaning and hygiene products to people in the Borough of Ashford. 2060 people used our community fridges. Our 24hr a day unique locker system was used almost daily. 2600 people benefited from free recipe bags and 543 people received a free slow cooker and recipe books designed by our community members.

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

Recipe Bag Scheme

Following our Recipe Bag pilot schemes from 2020-2022 we secured a regular commission with Ashford Borough Council to provide the bags on a monthly basis for their ‘Eat Well Spend Less Roadshows’.

The roadshows focus on providing targeted help and advice for local families who may need extra support as a result of rising food prices.

The events bring together a range of partner organisations including frontline NHS staff and council officers, outreach organisations and charities, in one easy-to-access place. Families are able to access a range of services including:

Guidance from ‘Our Kitchen’ on shopping, preparing and cooking healthy, nutritious meals

Benefits and housing advice and advice on what support is available locally

Information on where and how to access local food banks Advice on what support is available locally

Health MOT’s from Kent Community Health (NHS) Foundation Trust

Our recipes and food waste reduction videos are designed by community members. We also continue to distribute Recipe Bags through our own projects including ‘Love Food, Hate Waste’ and Big Green Week Events.

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

Our Future plans Expand our food projects beyond Ashford, into East Sussex, reaching more people in rural communities. Seek continuation funding for food projects that are working well and making the greatest impact during the cost of living crisis

Community Champion Diana

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact

You are never made to feel worthless which is what you feel about yourself, and you make me feel part of the group which is really satisfying. A big thank you for all you do. Thanks again

Food Projects Feedback

Just a smile & kind words make you feel better about yourself

I am very grateful for the services you provide to the community. They really help families to save money. When we all had Covid and could not get out ,we had no one to help us. The community centre delivered food to us. That really helped us a lot and we did not feel alone. I really appreciate the services you offer to our community

In the beginning I felt quite ashamed, dealt with a lot of low feelings. Staff are so friendly & kind. I now feel comfortable & enjoy seeing staff. Thank you all so much

Some other food places made me feel embarrassed and uncomfortable when I go there . Here I don’t feel that.

Community Spaces

The community is a spontaneous place and we continued to bring people together again to talk, play, learn, create social networks, and spend time together.

Repton Connect Community Centre continued to be a hub for free Children and Young Peoples activities thanks to a grant from Ashford Leisure Trust via Kent Community Foundation. Clubs, businesses, organisations, volunteers and our staff team came together to create fabulous opportunities for children and young people.

We provided free holiday activities for over 850 people including arts and crafts, soft archery, DJ’ing, two sports days, outdoor learning and much more. Activities were based on ideas from children and young people.

Through a grant from Ashford Borough Council we created and managed ‘ACTIVE’, a project working with many different organisations, providing warm spaces and activities for over 1000 Ashford residents throughout the Winter.

Community Spaces Community Spaces-Whats Next?

Community Kitchen Garden and Woodland -Sustainable Lifestyles

Having secured funding from NPC, a think tank for the charity sector, we want to maximise the social impact of our Kitchen Garden. We will continue to develop the space , increasing the size of the garden and capacity to grow food for our projects.

We will:

Increase access to food growing opportunities. Provide a safe space for people from refugee communities to volunteer. Improve mental health and promote relaxation. Grow more culturally significant vegetables and fruit. Provide free space to people living in local hotels to cook, eat and socialise together.

Community Spaces Consultancy Services

This year we continued to provide consultancy services, working with organisations to replicate similar types of work and deliver community lead Initiatives. Our CEO and Centre Manager provided consultancy in the following areas:

Securing funding
Management of Community Facilities
Asset Based Community development
Theory of Change
Community Engagement
Impact In Action-Simplifying the jumble and complexity that comes with measuring impact (just like the picture from one of our art workshops!)

Highlights Include securing a contract with The Mildred Trust to support their approach to Asset Based Community Development in the next financial year.

Again, one of the challenges we experienced this year was the expectation of organisations requesting free support. We are now offering a more business focused model, offering unique solutions that reflect current circumstances and aspirations.

Enhancement of employment, training, and volunteering opportunities for people in the local area. T-Level Business Placements in Partership with Ashford College

This year we were lucky to host a T-Level Business Placement in partnership with Ashford College. Working with the Colleges Industry Liaison Officer, Cameron went through a comprehensive recruitment process and now works with us one day per week. Cameron has taken responsibility for our mailing list and stock control. He is also a huge help co-ordinating our recipe bag packing days.

"I really enjoy working at Repton Connect and I am glad you can see that through my work’.

Volunteering

Our volunteer numbers were maintained this year. We have a group of 20 core members involved in diverse roles including food collections, volunteer driving, facilitating groups/activities, food growing and providing cover at Repton Connect Community Centre. Our staff team and volunteers gained 30 accredited qualifications this year including Emergency First Aid, Health and Safety, Safeguarding and Public Health.

Using an asset- based approach we get to know people, working with people’s strengths and potential. There were over 1000 volunteer hours spent supporting the Trust this year. These volunteer hours equate to approx. £10,420 trades in kind.

Volunteers Joseph and Soki

Enhancement of employment, training, and volunteering opportunities for people in the local area.

Staffing

We are delighted to currently employ eight people Including seven Ashford residents who have a wealth of knowledge about the local area and resources.

Community Champion Chen

With the growth of the organisation, we maintained our leadership team to utilise a more streamlined structure for both Repton Connect and The Food Projects Teams. This created new career pathways, working towards a collective business strategy.

Team members had the opportunity to under-take a varied programme of training, learning and development this year Including Asset Based Community Development, Competency Based Performance Management, Level 2 Understanding Health Improvement, Designated Safeguarding Officer Level 3, Level 2 Understanding Autism ,Employment Law and Food Hygiene.

Financial Review

A blended approach to funding Is undertaken and includes:

Funding Strategy

Our funding strategy was maintained this year to ensure the long-term sustainability of Repton Community Trust and the delivery of our vision to ‘Put the heart in Communities’. We needed to ensure we were applying for funding to meet the Immediate needs of our community members whilst maintaining a long-term vision. We also under-took a large, successful Crowd-Funding Campaign for the first time.

Funding Approach

The approach to funding needed to be reactive as well as planned to ensure we responded to emerging needs. The delivery of the Funding Strategy Is owned by the Chief Executive. A twelve-month rolling plan of funding streams are identified through our Theory of Change and are regularly monitored and reviewed.

Local Partnerships

The Trust is committed to working closely with other charities, social enterprises, community groups and locally focussed organisations to maximise funding opportunities and pool resources, expertise, and knowledge to deliver our objectives. Local partnerships have grown this year to Include joint funding opportunities and working together to Include a geographical spread of services Including more rural areas.

Bidding For Funding

A carefully researched and broad range of funding opportunities are developed that meet the vision and aims of the trust. This Is regularly reviewed and refreshed to minimise any gaps, always ensuring alignment with our vision and ambitions.

Financial ReviewFinancial review

Funding Risks and Challenges

One of the greatest challenges facing us as a charity remains the cost of living crisis. As at March 2023 there continues to be many financial unknowns including the rising cost of energy bills and food. The organisation is carefully meeting out operating costs and applying for funding to sustain core costs. We recognise that there is now much more competition for grant funding. We have observed that funders focus has shifted towards funding new projects and ideas. This creates a challenge to fund projects and services that are working well and making the most impact, addressing the longer term needs of our communities.

A robust business plan has been prepared for 23/24. The business plan will be regularly monitored with a strong focus on sales Income and maximising grants. In addition, long term funding bids will be researched and developed to support the organisation.

It is hard to predict which funding opportunities we will be successful and the exact timings of award. To mitigate this, a broad range of funding streams have been developed which are regularly reviewed and evaluated to ensure minimal disruption to funding streams.

Financial ReviewFinancial review

Plans For Future Periods - Sustainability

Sustainable development goals continue to be vital. Our own goals include engaging in the circular economy. Focusing on reducing waste and repurposing materials, eco-friendly restructuring of our systems of production and consumption.

We will develop a strategy to ensure we reach the people who need our services most, Including In rural areas. Being a vehicle for social good and creating tools to help shape a more prosperous and sustainable local food network using surplus food.

Food Rescue Strategy Community Garden

Food Waste / Compost

Financial StatementFinancial Statement

Repton Community Trust CIO For The Year Ended 3 April 2023

Many of our financial transactions occur over a period of several months/accounting periods which is why our accruals-based accounting system supports us to reflect overall cash flow.

Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.

We are delighted to have generated a small surplus of £16,021.63 TBC in this financial year. This is well ahead of business planning projections. £15,000 TBC is also reflected as part of a provision for liabilities associated with the Repton Connect building as listed in our lease with Ashford Borough Council.

• Make judgments 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 statement.

Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

We have established operating reserves and a sinking fund for Repton Connect

Community Centre. As we have a full repairing lease, it is vital that reserves are established for major refurbishment works in the coming years. This will include MUGA resurfacing and floor replacement in the main hall.

Our cash reserves of £TBC comprise £TBCk of restricted funds, £TBC is also allocated as operating reserves (5 months) and the remainder as a required sinking fund.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that 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 1993, 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 taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Statement of trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing an annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable land and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The trustees for the purposes of charity law who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1.

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each 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 of the charity for that period.

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: Offsetting Grants and donations Legacies Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Donated goods Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help · 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. 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 are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 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 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. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and 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. 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. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies.

Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Debtors Current asset investments They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments. 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. The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due.				ü
