## **Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and was formed on 23 February 2009. It is governed by a memorandum and articles of association as amended 10 May 2016. The liability of the members in the event of the company being wound up is limited to a sum not exceeding £10. 

The day to day running and decision making of the charity are the responsibility of the Charity CEO and staff team who work closely with the local community to ensure that the work and development of the charity is shaped and developed by local people. 

As our charity is based on the skills and passions of local people, the overall strategic lead and development of the project is overseen by a board of Trustees made up of at least 50% local people living within the LS14 postcode. The LS14 Trust CEO reports to this board. 

When there is a position available the post of Trustee is advertised through local and citywide networks. All new Trustees are interviewed by an existing Trustee and then work through a clear induction process highlighting values/ vision of charity and all policies and procedures.

## **Structure, governance and management continued** 

## **Arrangements for setting pay of key management personnel** 

The pay structure for LS14 Trust is based on the JNC pay levels. An annual pay review is held to and agreed by LS14 Trust Trustees. 

## **Relationships with other charities / organisations** 

We work closely with a range of charities and organisations which help our charitable objectives in the and since early in the Covid pandemic more than two years ago a group of third sector organisations banded together with residents to respond to social challenges and activate artistic energy. The result has been the creation of the new network “We Are Seacroft” consisting of a dozen organisations including LS14 Trust, Fall Into Place Theatre, Seacroft Community on Top, Kentmere Community Centre, St. Anne’s and St. Richard’s Church, Chapel FM Arts Centre. 

The We Are Seacroft group has used inventive tools ranging from a spruced-up vintage ice cream van that delivered information about vaccines, sports activities and pop-up broadcasting to half-term and summer holiday camps for young people. 

We have developed a strong partnership with Leeds City Council and our local councillors and work with charities and organisations across the city including: Voluntary Action Leeds; Forum Central; Leeds Community Foundation;  Local Care Partnerships; Public Health; School Clusters and Active Leeds. 

We have forged good relationships with funders including the National Lottery; Children in Need; and Imagine IF foundation. 

We are members of Social Enterprise Yorkshire & Humber (SEYH), Locality and part of the International Federation of Settlements. 

## **Administrative details** 

The trustees delegate the day to day management and running of the charity to the staff, in particular Howard Bradley (CEO). 

Trustees and staff are encouraged  to develop skill levels through ongoing training opportunities from external providers Including Voluntary Action Leeds and Leeds City Council. 

LS14 Trust is also a member of the national organisation Locality which provides ongoing advice and development opportunities for staff and Trustees. 

## **Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees** 

The trustees of the charity are also the directors for the purposes of company law and are appointed by the members at the AGM. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects**

## LS14 Trust 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022 

## **The charity's main activities** 

The LS14 Trust was set up in 2009 by a group of local people who wanted to work together to change the community that they loved. The project works across the whole of the LS14 postcode. It aims to bring people together to make a difference, our vision is to see LS14 become a welcoming, vibrant, happy, place where people feel in control and are proud of their achievements. We want this to be a well connected community which recognises its power to bring about and sustain positive social change, a place where every resident is safe and respected. 

The mission of the LS14 Trust is to build upon the strengths of our community by working together to develop activities and opportunities, promoting the area as a vibrant and exciting place to live and work and bring up a family. 

We believe in … 

## **AUTHENTICITY** 

We want to be loyal and true to our community. 

We will always start by listening to and working with the people who are around us. 

## **EMPOWERMENT** 

We want to work together to bring out the gifts, skills and potential we all have as individuals and as a community. 

## **COLLABORATION** 

We think it’s always better to work together. 

## **HOSPITALITY** 

We believe in a good old cuppa tea and a natter. When people feel welcome and part of a community things begin to change for the better. 

## **FUN** 

Life’s not just about hard work – you’ve got to let your hair down! We want our community to be a place of joy and fun. 

## **SYSTEMIC CHANGE** 

We want to work towards real lasting change in our community that will make it a better place to live for our Children and Grandchildren. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular, education and training, the advancement of health or saving of lives, the prevention or relief of poverty and economic/community development/employment. 

## **Ensuring our work delivers our aims** 

Our approach to all aspects of our work lends itself to continual evaluation and allows us to take iterative steps in order to respond to uncertain times. We are able to evaluate the processes in our projects, such as, how well have we shared information and agreed on collective goals, and we measure our successes by assessing the impact we have had on those most in need 

We are adept at sharing our findings and evaluating our methodology and we have been successful at doing this in a range of projects that have been funded by the CCG and the West Yorkshire Health Partnership.  The LS14 Trust is a trusted local organisation that has taken a strategic lead in the area and has the knowledge and experience to share the lessons learnt through this collaboration. On a micro level we consider which projects have worked on the ground while being also able to reflect on the contribution to systemic change in this area and how these processes may inform attempts to reduce health inequalities and improve quality of life. 

We listen to and actively encourage the community to shape the work that we do. We believe that by using  an asset based community  development approach to our work we ensure that we continue to be shaped by and respond to the community thus ensuring we are delivering our aims.

## LS14 Trust 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Collaboration has again been key in all of our work this year. Following on from last year it has been 12 months in which we have had to respond to the complexities of an ever changing pandemic. Our partnership work with local people, local organisations, funders and Leeds City Council has been the key to successfully navigating this. Throughout this financial year Covid has still had a considerable impact on key aspects of our delivery. 

LS14 Trust has a team of 15  part-time and full-time staff and works with 30+ volunteers on a regular basis. 

## Core work of the Trust 

Our Learning Lab work initially continued with online groups but later in the year we were able to establish inperson groups and run a number of events particularly focusing on the development of a new community-led space in Rein Park. 

## ABCD 

We have a dedicated staff team working in the community with an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) Approach. This has continued to provide support for local people to develop small scale community-led projects which respond directly to needs and desires of the local community. 

## Young people and family work 

During the last 12 months we created 27000 activity packs which were distributed as part of the Healthy Holidays programme. 

After the lockdown lifted we were able to start new youth groups. These were based on what the children, young people and families asked for. We also started working closely with the cluster and schools who told us what the needs were. 

The youth groups were created by our two apprentices who were employed from the local area. They worked with Coach Core to do a level 2 community activator course. As their employer LS14 Trust won an award for employer of the year. 

Each week we work with over 200 children. 

- We run a youth club which caters for up to 150 children ages 4-17 every Friday. 

- Sibs group which was created from a need for more support of siblings of children who have SEND. 

- A boys and a girls group and a group for children exploring identity. 

- A sports leaders programme and a youth leaders programme. 

We also ran a year of holiday activities catering for 500 children in activities, events and street parties. 

Our apprentices completed their courses, one went on to do a level 3 with coach core and one started Youth Work level 3.  We also employed another apprentice to do level 3 Youth Work. 

We started delivering youth work in Seacroft as part of the East Leeds Youth Alliance to support youth work delivered by the council. 

We also started a 'dinner table' to support young women as they transition from teenagers to adults. 

## Food security 

This year has seen LS14 Trust prepare and launch our community pantry just before Christmas. The take up has been significant with over 100 families taking part from day one. We have continued to provide food parcels and support people shopping. We have also developed some brilliant creative food recipe boxes for families and young people. 

## We Are Seacroft 

We have continued to develop a collaborative way of working in the community and amongst local third sector organisations. We have started developing a website to house We Are Seacroft and worked with a film production company to record our community’s experience of the pandemic.

## LS14 Trust 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

We have also established a volunteering project across local organisations to ensure we are supporting local people to make a difference and continue to build on the incredible community spirit that has developed over the last couple of years. 

## Health and Wellbeing 

We have continued to work closely with our Local Care Partnership, Primary Care Network and local third sector partners to ensure that our community has played a role in the development and implementation of provision across the ward. We have co-created resources such as a series of films and workshops that address toxic masculinity and domestic violence.  We have facilitated vaccine clinics in the community and helped people transition out of lock down as they reconnect with their community. 

In addition, we have funded mindfulness workshops that have had a profound impact on people dealing with mental health issues and we have continued to hold spaces where people can access social networks. 

Our art therapy project, Art Room, continued for most of the year as a digital provision and provided much needed wellbeing and mental health to help meet the needs of vulnerable people and provide ongoing support. 

## - City wide Impact 

We have worked closely with the Adult Social Care team at Leeds City council to support 15 organisations across the city of Leeds to embed the Asset-Based Community Development approach to community work in their organisation. 

The LS14 Trust CEO has worked with Voluntary Action Leeds and a number of leaders from other third sector organisations to establish the Leeds Community Anchor Network, building on the work delivered during the pandemic and looking at long term sustainable approaches to rooted community work across the city. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

Our focus for the next 12 months will be as follows: 

## Core work 

- l ABCD - continue to work with this approach at the core of what we do. 

- l Learning Lab- we aim to take our learning lab groups on a range of inspirational visits to meet other people/ organisations/ communities to inspire our work / ideas in Seacroft. 

## Food security 

- l We would like to renovate the LS14 Trust building, improving the space to deliver the community pantry and to provide a new cafe / meeting space open to all. 

## Young people and family work. 

- l Over the next year in partnership with  Seacroft Community On Top, we will continue growing our apprenticeship programme by offering another young person a level 2 community activator course. 

- l We will lease a building which will be used as a youth centre to help engage young people we don't currently reach. 

- l We will continue to grow our holiday programme and offer activities in other parts of LS14 such as Swarcliffe, Manston and Whinmoor. 

## We Are Seacroft 

- l The last few years in Seacroft, has seen third sector organisations and residents coming together to support each other through some difficult times. As we transition, we know there are still challenges ahead but our collaboration makes us stronger. We are looking to develop our alliance and ensure that we identify sufficient funding that will sustain this collaborative way of working. If we are sociable, passionate and supportive, we can inspire each other to create a culture where imagination and creativity can flourish. 

- l We will launch our website and documentary.

## LS14 Trust 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

## Health and wellbeing 

- l We will continue to develop our relationship with the Local Care Partnership and the Primary Care Network to ensure that local residents have a voice in decision making processes and are able to influence responses to local health inequalities. 

- l We will promote positive messages around health and lifestyle choices through our range of activities and our community journalism that will be housed on our new We Are Seacroft website. 

- l We will continue to support ventures that make a discernible difference to people across the community. 

## - City wide development 

- l We will continue to support organisations across the city to develop ABCD approaches in their work. 

- l We will continue to develop and play a leadership role with  Leeds Community Anchor Network. 

## A big thank you: 

We would like to thank all of our staff for another year of extraordinary effort and commitment. We have supported thousands of people across our community over the last 12 months.  We would also like to thank our numerous funders who have supported and encouraged us in our work as well as the many organisations we have worked alongside during this time for the benefit of the community of LS14. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the year was £16,730, including net income of £15,513 on unrestricted funds and net income of £1,217 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Our policy for reserves is to ensure that there are between 3 and 6 months of non-grant-funded salaries and overheads + 2.5% contingency and enough reserves to cover redundancy costs if ever required. This would currently equate to between £56,214 and £83,889. 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £112,764. 

This represents approximately 3 months of overall annual expenditure. However much of our operational spend is secured from restricted funds (for example the majority of staff salaries and project costs) Our expected overheads and staff salaries that come from unrestricted funds in the forthcoming year are approximately £9000 per month, hence we have over 13 months reserves to cover unrestricted fund expenditure. We seek to include overhead and management costs in our grants applications, and seek specific grants, to help with these overheads and to maintain our reserves. We are also considering new ways to raise our donations and will soon start sales in our café when this can be open. 

The trustees recognise that any shortfall in funding for activities funded by restricted funds will mean that activities and expenditure could be reduced or stopped should such circumstances arise.

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and 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 have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. 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. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of LS14 Trust 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 10 to 21. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a fellow of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a fellow of ACIE 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 company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

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.

Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The SOFA includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals throughout the year. 

## **Expenditure and liabilities** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

## **Grants payable 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. 

## **Taxation** 

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. 

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: 

Equipment: over 5 years 

Motor vehicles: over 4 years and Bicycles: over 3 years 

## **Pensions** 

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees.  The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.
