Chesterfield Samaritans
Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31st March 2021
The Trustees submit their annual report and the financial statements for the Year Ended 31st March 2021.
Status & Administration
The Charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, affiliated to Samaritans Central Charity. It is registered with the Charity Commission and is regulated by its rules, which were adopted on 1st April 2017.
The Charity’s governing body is a Board of Trustees, chaired by the Director of the Charity. All Trustees, with the exception of the Director, are elected annually at an Annual General Meeting of the Members of the Charity.
Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities in respect of the Financial Statements
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity, and of the surplus or deficit of that charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:-
i) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently
ii) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and iii) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue to operate.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with resonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the law applicable. They are also responsible for safguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Activities & Objectives
The Charity's objectives are:-
To enable persons in Chesterfield and the surrounding area as well as elsewhere who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those who may be at risk of suicide, to receive confidential emotional support at any time of the day or night in order to improve their emotional health and to reduce the incidence of suicide;
To promote a better understanding in society of suicide, suicidal behaviour and the value of expressing feelings which may otherwise lead to suicide or impaired emotional health; and
To collaborate with and support Samaritans Central Charity and its affiliated branches in fulfilling these objectives.
In pursuance of these objectives, the Charity maintains a property in Chesterfield, which is used as a base for its listening services.

Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31st March 2021 (cont)
Organisation
The day-to-day management of the Charity is in the hands of a Leadership Team, chaired by the Director. The Leadership Team is comprised entirely of volunteers and is supported in its work by a number of other volunteers. All members of the Leadership Team are also Trustees.
The primary source of funding for the work of the Charity is a shop in Chesterfield, which is staffed by a paid shop manager and a number of volunteers.
Review of the Activities
This constituted the forth financial year of activity under the Charity’s CIO status.
Income totalled £6,764 (2020: £2,885) (Excluding the shop profits & donations from Samaritans of Chesterfield).
Expenditure was in the amount of £25,914 (2020: £21,634).
The charity shop generated a profit of £27,535 (2020: £11,749) (Excluding donations from Samaritans of Chesterfield).
This resulted in a overall net income of £8,385 (2020: net expenditure of £7,000).
The Charity's cash position was in the amount of £69,412 (2020: £63,905).
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have established a policy whereby the funds not commited or invested in tangible assets (the "free reserves") held by the Charity should be equivalent to the cost of operating the branch for eighteen months in addition to the cost which would be incurred by the immediate replacement of our high cost equipment.
Risk Review
The Trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that adequate systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
Independent Examiners
A resolution that 360 Accounting Limited will be appointed, will be proposed at a general meeting.
Approved by the Trustees on and signed on their behalf by:-
Mrs J Tweedy Director and Chair of Trustees

Independent Examiners Report to the trustees of Chesterfield Samaritans for the Year Ended 31st March 2021
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31st March 2021, which are set out on pages 4 to 14.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees & Examiners
The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.
The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act),
Also that, although an Independent Examination is not required, the Trustees have elected to request one.
It is my responsibility to:-
i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The Charity’s governing body is a Board of Trustees, chaired by the Director of the Charity. All Trustees, with the exception of the Director, are elected annually at an Annual General Meeting of the Members of the Charity.
Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities in respect of the Financial Statements
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity, and of the surplus or deficit of that charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:-
i) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently
ii) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and iii) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue to operate.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with resonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the law applicable. They are also responsible for safguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Activities & Objectives
The Charity's objectives are:-
To enable persons in Chesterfield and the surrounding area as well as elsewhere who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those who may be at risk of suicide, to receive confidential emotional support at any time of the day or night in order to improve their emotional health and to reduce the incidence of suicide;
To promote a better understanding in society of suicide, suicidal behaviour and the value of expressing feelings which may otherwise lead to suicide or impaired emotional health; and
To collaborate with and support Samaritans Central Charity and its affiliated branches in fulfilling these objectives.
In pursuance of these objectives, the Charity maintains a property in Chesterfield, which is used as a base for its listening services.

Chesterfield Samaritans
Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31st March 2021 (cont)
Organisation
The day-to-day management of the Charity is in the hands of a Leadership Team, chaired by the Director. The Leadership Team is comprised entirely of volunteers and is supported in its work by a number of other volunteers. All members of the Leadership Team are also Trustees.
The primary source of funding for the work of the Charity is a shop in Chesterfield, which is staffed by a paid shop manager and a number of volunteers.
Review of the Activities
This constituted the forth financial year of activity under the Charity’s CIO status.
Income totalled £6,764 (2020: £2,885) (Excluding the shop profits & donations from Samaritans of Chesterfield).
Expenditure was in the amount of £25,914 (2020: £21,634).
The charity shop generated a profit of £27,535 (2020: £11,749) (Excluding donations from Samaritans of Chesterfield).
This resulted in a overall net income of £8,385 (2020: net expenditure of £7,000).
The Charity's cash position was in the amount of £69,412 (2020: £63,905).
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have established a policy whereby the funds not commited or invested in tangible assets (the "free reserves") held by the Charity should be equivalent to the cost of operating the branch for eighteen months in addition to the cost which would be incurred by the immediate replacement of our high cost equipment.
Risk Review
The Trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that adequate systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
Independent Examiners
A resolution that 360 Accounting Limited will be appointed, will be proposed at a general meeting.
Approved by the Trustees on and signed on their behalf by:-
Mrs J Tweedy Director and Chair of Trustees

Independent Examiners Report to the trustees of Chesterfield Samaritans for the Year Ended 31st March 2021
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31st March 2021, which are set out on pages 4 to 14.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees & Examiners
The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.
The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act),
Also that, although an Independent Examination is not required, the Trustees have elected to request one.
It is my responsibility to:-
i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
