## **Trustees Annual Report** 

For the year ended 31 March 2023 

The Trustees are pleased to present their annual Trustees’ Report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2022, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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. 

We were established as a charity in January 2017, our aim is to assist unemployed people to live a life of dignity and at the same time assist them to secure the welfare benefits to which they are entitled in order that they can live a decent life. 

Some of our clients are unemployed as a consequence of economic reasons and the jobs market, which is not their fault, and we join with them in seeking to explore alternative types of work so they can find sustainable well paid work. Other clients are either ill or disabled and work is not as clear cut as it is for the fit and able bodied, we assist them to get welfare benefit payments and all advances to a better life. 

## **1. Objectives Strategies and Activities for the Year** 

## **Overview of the main activities carried out during the year in relation to the charity's purposes:** 

Following the demolition of our office premises in Newcastle, we moved into new premises in Central Gateshead in May 2022. This allowed us to essentially relaunch the Centre and to make headway in developing our work in Gateshead, while maintaining our existing links and networks in Newcastle and around Tyne and Wear. 

During the year, we concentrated on further developing our Client Representation Project, which is aimed at empowering claimants and their families where possible to make their own applications and to represent themselves at appeals in respect of Personal Independence Payments and Employment Support Allowance. 

We continue also to represent people when they require support at Benefit Appeal and our 

success rate has remained very high. 

Alongside this project, we have continued to offer information, advice and guidance to support 

unemployed, sick and disabled people across Tyne and Wear. 

We have continued to develop our volunteer base and to make contact with new supporters 

and partner organisations. 

We now have our own website, which has generated a number of referrals, and we have continued to develop our presence on social media, while also distributing a range of leaflets and materials to potential clients, informing them about the type of support and assistance that they can access through our Charity.

## **Report of what the charity has achieved during the year and the difference this has made to its beneficiaries** 

Building on the work, we did last year with the support of Newcastle City Council we were able to continue to deliver the Claimant Representation project with the support of the Alex Ferry Foundation and with new support from the National Lottery Awards for All fund. This new funding allowed us to work more widely across the Tyne and Wear area. 

We have continued to offer training to other organisations and to Volunteers to build capacity in the area to support clients with PIP and ESA Appeals. 

We have had some significant successes in supporting individuals with a high success rate at tribunal level and in supporting people to make successful claims. 

We have also supported people with Careers Guidance and also with Employability skills, as well as developing our advocacy work in relation to local and national government, employment issues and general support to vulnerable unemployed, sick and disabled people. We continue also to signpost people to specialist and other organisations where necessary and appropriate. 

We are confident that the project made a difference to people in 2022/23 and that we will continue to do so in the future. The immediate difficulties that we encountered during lockdown have subsided, but no doubt like many other organisations we recognise that the impact of lockdown is longer term, with a certain dislocation in services and also a need to reconnect with people. We are confident that we have made significant steps forward in addressing these issues. Not least, in respect of social media and our website as well as continuing where necessary to use Zoom and hybrid approaches to meetings. This has proven very valuable in connecting with those clients and partners who are concerned about the ongoing threat of Covid. 

## **2. Public Benefit Statement** 

It would be impossible for us to recruit and fund enough paid or voluntary staff to deliver the level of service to meet the needs of all of the unemployed, sick and disabled people in Tyne and Wear. Therefore, we focus of our work on passing on our knowledge to claimants, their family’s friends and to the people in their communities with whom we are able to connect. Our aim is to empower them to sustain and protect their own welfare benefits. We believe that this work also helps to promote self esteem and to empower the Community. 

## **3. Policy on Social Investment** 

Our policy is to apply for grants on a regular basis, based on what we can realistically deliver, and what will be of benefit to our clients and to the development of our organisation and those who are active within it. We seek always to diversify the sources of funding we access to ensure that we do not become reliant on a single large grant. We link our aims of our organisation, to the needs of our clients, and onto a better society, because we know at present too many welfare benefit claimants are not living a fulfilled life, that is bad for them, their family and local community, and that effects the wider moral of society.

## **4. Policy on Grant Making** 

We do not make grants to individuals or to other charities. Our policy is to apply for grants on a regular basis, based on what we can realistically deliver, and what will be of benefit to our clients and to the development of our organisation and those who are active within it. 

## **5. Contribution by Volunteers** 

Our volunteers are essential to the successful work of the Charity. They are central to our delivery plan at every stage, from attending medical assessments with claimants, to helping clients with form filling to apply for benefits, to making Mandatory Reconsideration Applications, up to  and including preparing and attending Social Security Tribunals. We devote a significant amount of time to training new volunteers. 

## **6. Achievements and Performance** 

The impact of Covid and our forced move to Gateshead meant that we did suffer some dislocation of service and had to relaunch our work in a different area. 

We worked hard during the year to restore our services to pre Covid levels and to reengage with service users. Moving to Gateshead allowed us to do a lot of work in advertising our services and making contact with new clients. 

This proved to be a success and we saw a steady growth in business over the year. 

We benefited from an additional emphasis on Social Media and from the launch of our Website twcau.org.uk 

We were able to continue with our training programmes and in our representation project. The grants from the National Lottery Awards for All Programme and the Alex Ferry Foundation have been particularly valuable in enabling us to deliver the Client Representation Project across Tyne and Wear, whereas previously we were largely tied to working in Newcastle as we were funded by Newcastle City Council. 

Our new premises are larger and more accessible than our previous office and are Shop Front Premises on a main road, which means they are very visible. We are also situated very near to the Bus and Metro stations. 

## **7. Evaluation and outputs** 

We have been able to successfully deliver against the objectives that we set for the Claimant 

Representation Project over this financial year. We were supported in this work through grants made by the National Lottery Awards for All Programme and the Alex Ferry Foundation. 

## **8. Fundraising** 

The Charity was able to secure funding from a variety of sources, The National Lottery Awards for All programme, The Alex Ferry Foundation and the Handley Trust as well as other smaller donations from individuals and organisations. Our aim is to diversify our funding as much as possible to avoid reliance on any individual funding stream.

## **9. Investments** 

Following our move to new premises, we purchased a number of items of furniture and a new hoover, but our biggest investment was in improving our printing facilities by hiring a large A3 printer. 

We have begun to generate some money through printing which we have used to support our expenditure on volunteer expenses. 

## **10. Financial Review** 

Review of the year 

The results for the year and the charity's financial position at the end of the year are shown in the attached financial statements. 

During the year the Charity had income of £24,349 (2022: £37,222) of which £18,850 was restricted (2022: £32,800) and expenditure of £29,653 (2022: £27,117) of which £20,595 was restricted (2022: £24,635). There was an operating deficit of £5,304 (2022:  surplus of £10,105) of which a deficit of £1,745 was restricted (2022: surplus of £8,165). 

At 31 March 2023 the Charity had net assets of £16,550 (2022: £21,854) of which £6,420 was restricted (2022: £8,165). 

## **Reserves policy/Going concern** 

The Trustees consider the level of reserves, £10,130 (2022: £13,689), prudent for the Charity at this time taking into account potential liabilities in the event that the charity ceased. Our Reserves Policy is reviewed annually. 

## **11. Risk Management** 

We place the highest priority on safety and wellbeing of our clients and staff and volunteers, we have a management team on hand to respond to all possible and real conflicts that may arise in the day to day running of our organisation and also to guarantee our policy and financial security as an organisation. Plans for future periods to expand our training program across Tyne and Wear. 

## **12. Plans for the future** 

Our aim is expand and develop our work with clients, drawing in new volunteers, developing new services and also to further develop our presence in Gateshead, now that we are firmly established in our new premises. 

We are always keen to balance our growth and development against the development of our volunteer network. As such, we always seek to emphasise training and consolidation of new volunteers to ensure that we are able to keep pace with the demand from clients. 

We are keen to develop our staffing levels and also to expand our work with women and minority ethnic communities. We received confirmation that we have received two grants that will allow us to develop this work, shortly before the end of the financial year.

We are also hoping to deliver Basic Skills Programmes in Maths and English and also Professional Careers Advice and Guidance. This reflects the skills within our staff and volunteer team.

In preparing those 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;

## **TYNE AND WEAR CENTRE AGAINST UNEMPLOYMENT** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** 

For the year ended 05 April 2023 

I report on the financial statements of Tyne And Wear Centre Against Unemployment for the year ended 05 April 2023, which are set out on pages 8 to 16. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

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 of the Charities Act 2022 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- h examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- h to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and 

- h 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- h the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- h the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- h the accounts did 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 if the requirements that the accounts give a "true and fair" view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I 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.
