The trustees have the pleasure in presenting their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Introduction

Chaplaincy Derbyshire is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, CIO, (1172198). It is based at St. Peter's Centre, St. Peter's Street, Derby DEI ISN. As of 1st April 2022 Workplace Chaplaincy Derbyshire and Derbyshire Rural Chaplaincy have been incorporated into Chaplaincy Derbyshire.

Purpose and Main Activities of the Charity

The objects of the CIO are:

  1. To advance the Christian Religion mainly, but not exclusively, by the provision of pastoral care through chaplaincy services for the benefit of the public in Derby City, Derbyshire and surrounding areas.

  2. To promote the physical, mental and spiritual well-being of the inhabitants of Derby City, Derbyshire and surrounding areas mainly, but not exclusively, by the provision of advice and support.

  3. To support, care for and treat persons in need in Derby City, Derbyshire and surrounding areas who are homeless or suffering from the effects of poverty, sickness, disability, alcoholism, drug addiction, offending behaviour or any other mental or physical infirmity, as an expression of Christian faith.

SUMMARY OF THE MAN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT m RELATION TO THESE OBJECTS

In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit at our trustees meetings.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Chaplaincy Derbyshire has around 75 chaplains active at any one time, from a base of 120, operating in a range of diverse sectors (retail, business, health care, social care, education, city council, rural, police and fire and sport and leisure). As an example of the work done by Chaplaincy Derbyshire the Lead Rural Chaplain writes:

"The Derbyshire Rural Chaplaincy (DRC) has settled well into our new home and parent organisation, Chaplaincy Derbyshire. The support provided by Chaplaincy Derbyshire enables the DRC to get on with supporting the rural and agricultural community in Derbyshire offering

Christian spiritual and pastoral care. The DRC team visit the Agricultural Business Centre every Monday to meet the farming community and we conducted 283 face to face visits on farms between April 2022 and March 2023, as well as providing a hospitality space and Christian presence at Agricultural Shows across the County. The DRC also supported 19 church services and took 4 weddings, 9 baptisms and 17funerals to complement the mission and ministry of the rural church in Derbyshire. The DRC is very much looking forward to the future as an integral part of Chaplaincy Derbyshire's work across the county ".

The trustees continue to have due regard for their duty to comply with guidance of the Charity Commission on public benefit in the exercise of their powers or duties.

fraining and Safeguarding

All Chaplains and Trustees have DBS clearance to work with Chaplaincy Derbyshire (see Structure, Governance and Management above) and access to a Safeguarding Officer.

During there 2022-23 were two training days that covered a wide range of topics including:

Training remains an important aspect of Chaplaincy Derbyshire activities.

Future Plans

Chaplaincy Derbyshire will continue to develop and review its structure and plans to appoint 3 workers to cover:

Communications

The ecumenical partnerships will continue to be encouraged and strengthened along with recruitment of volunteer chaplains for all sectors. Opportunities for financial support will continue to be reviewed for all sectors with grant applications made as appropriate.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Chaplaincy Derbyshire funds are used solely for operational costs to support the Chaplaincy service (provision of training, expenses of office, uniforms, publicity administration and travel costs). Regular annual income comes from a contract held with Derbyshire Community

Healthcare Services NHS Foundation Trust for provision of Chaplaincy Services to patients in the community, and a contract held with Erewash Primary Care Network for provision of Chaplaincy Services to their GP Surgeries.

Significant grant support is also received from a number of organisations including the Police and Fire services, tmsts and associated churches.

We receive payment from the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham when their chaplains attend our Chaplaincy Training Days and occasional donations from individuals.

There were two paid Chaplains in the year; one is Lead Chaplain for the Police and Fire services and the other Lead Chaplain for Rural Chaplaincy. All other chaplains are volunteers. There is no charge for the Chaplaincy Service, with the exception of the contract outlined above.

Chaplaincy Derbyshire sub-contracts payroll and pension management.

At 31st March 2023 the balance of funds was E75565.27— see separate Financial Statement.

STRUCTURE. GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The governing document of the CIO is a Constitution which was accepted in June 2017. In accordance with that document, new trustees are appointed by the existing trustees.

A more formal structure has been implemented as the work of the CIO has expanded and there is now an Operations Team that manages the more day-to-day needs. The trustees meet six times a year to transact the business of the CIO. There is also contact between trustees by email. Four of the Trustees are actively involved as a serving Chaplain.

Chaplains are appointed via a stringent interview process, and are subject to an enhanced DBS check as well as induction and ongoing training. All Chaplains are required to abide by Chaplaincy Derbyshire's Safeguarding, Data Protection and other relevant policies.

Trustee selection methods

A skills audit has been undertaken to discover those skills which are required by the trustee body. Efforts are made to recruit trustees who meet the skill requirement.

Risk management policy

The trustees examine the major risks that the charity faces each financial year when preparing and updating the strategic plan. The charity has developed systems to monitor and control these risks to mitigate any impact that they may have on the charity in the future.
