Trustees 2019-20
Frances Hill (Chair) Sarah Galvin (Vice Chair) Stuart Davis (Treasurer) – appointed 27 April 2021 Terry Brown Affan Ahmed Cheema Thomas Edwards Tigist Grieve Rachel Haynes Thomas James Skirrow Rob Hill (Treasurer) (resigned April 26 2021) Lisa Catherine Jones (resigned 3 March 2021)
Structure, Governance and Management
The organisation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, incorporated on 7th June 2017 and registered as a charity on 7th June 2017. Its governing document is the Constitution dated 16th May 2017. Prior to this date, South West International Development Network operated as an unincorporated association, which donated all of its funds to the new charity on its incorporation. During the year the Trustees delegated the day to day operation of the company to the Network Co-ordinator. The Network Coordinator was Anna Owen until January 2020 when she stepped down and was replaced by Jessie Greenwood, the Memberships and Events Officer who joined SWIDN in August 2019.
Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees
All trustees are nominated by existing trustees, and elected by a simple majority vote at the AGM or other Trustees' Meetings. In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the trustees have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the charity.
Risk Assessment
The Trustee Board identifies and reviews a range of risks in which the charity is exposed to and ensures appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable mitigations to these risks. The Board of Trustees review these risks on a quarterly basis. The assessment process is managed through a risk register, which assigns management of these risks to specific individuals and recommends actions to be taken to where necessary to manage their likelihood or impact.

Objects and Activities
Charitable Objects
The promotion of the voluntary sector for the public benefit primarily in the south west of England in particular by building the capacity of charitable and voluntary organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty in any part of the world by providing them with advice, information and training and services to enable them to pursue their charitable purposes and improve the efficiency and management of their resources,
“‘The Voluntary Sector’ means charities and voluntary organisations.
-
Charities are organisations, which are established for exclusively charitable purposes in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
-
Voluntary organisations are independent organisations, which are established for purposes that add value to the community as a whole, or a significant section of the community, and which are not permitted by their constitution to make a profit for private distribution. Voluntary organisations do not include local government or other statutory authorities.”
Public Benefit
The charity delivers public benefit by actively supporting the charitable and voluntary organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty in any part of the world by providing them with information, training, services and signposting to advice to enable them to pursue their charitable purposes and improve the efficiency and management of their resources.
The Trustees are aware of the requirement of public benefit and seek to implement the Charity Commissioners' guidance on public benefit.
Safeguarding Policy
SWIDN has a full set of policies in place to protect people involved with its work. During the year 2019-2020, no serious incidents including, but not limited to safeguarding, financial or criminal were reported within SWIDN or by anyone involved with the charity.

Achievements and Performance
Whilst 2019-20 was a difficult period with the Global Pandemic and planned cuts in International Development Funding the trustees of the South West International Development Network (SWIDN) are pleased to report on another busy, productive and successful year during 2019-20 for SWIDN as the network has continued to go from strength to strength in terms of both membership growth and activities in pursuit of its stated charitable aims and objectives: With the shared goal and desire to see an end to global poverty, SWIDN plays an active role supporting the charitable and voluntary organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty in any part of the world by providing them with advice, information and training and services to enable them to pursue their charitable purposes and improve the efficiency and management of their resources.
Vision, Mission & Strategy
SWIDN Vision: A network of organisations and individuals in the South West of England contributing to the delivery of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). SWIDN Mission: Provide relevant information, resources and facilitate an environment that supports all organisations and individuals interested in the delivery of the SDG agenda.
SWIDN Values: Members First - Collaborative - Professional - Dynamic - Transparent - Accountable
SWIDN Strategic objectives:
-
Facilitate international development learning, knowledge sharing, and public engagement.
-
Demonstrate the South West international development communities’ contribution and value to global development and engage in relevant research & advocacy.
-
Operate sustainably and transparently.
Membership growth
SWIDN is growing its network membership and fees at a steady rate, and is retaining members of all types within the network successfully. As such, memberships are providing SWIDN with a healthy, regular and growing income.
Member numbers of all types have increased steadily through the year. The split between and increase in membership types from the start to the end of the 2019-20 financial year was as follows:
| Member types & numbers | 30 June 2018 |
30 June 2019 |
31 Dec 2020 |
| Non-profits | 34 | 42 | 47 |
| Academics | 2 | 4 | 4 |
| Business/corporates | 3 | 4 | 4 |
| SME Consultants | 12 | 23 | 25 |
| Total organisational members | 51 | 73 | 80 |
| Individuals | 29 | 41 | 55 |
| Total members | 80 | 114 | 135 |

However, membership fees alone, at their current level, are not enough to sustain SWIDN financially. In addition, as the SWIDN network grows, more operations and staff time will be required to manage the network. Based on current research, although there is still scope for a significant amount of membership income to be tapped into within the SW international development sector, the importance of maximising training income, as well as exploring other income streams, remain vitally important in working towards achieving long-term financial sustainability for SWIDN.
Fundraising
We were delighted to find out in May 2019 that, following an application to our current funder, the Joffe Charitable Trust, for a one-year extension to our existing three year grant, SWIDN would receive a fourth and final payment of £10,000 in July 2019 for the 2019-20 financial year, specifically to enable SWIDN to continue working to build its income streams to achieve long-term financial sustainability.
We also receive a grant from Bond as part of the Civil Society Collective Programme that is £5,000 per year for four years that began in 2018, reduced to £3,000 in 2021 due to the Government cuts to International Development. This grant supports our day to day running and a number of our training courses and working groups.
In December 2020 we were delighted to sign the AGA for the UK Aid Direct SCCF Capacity Building grant where we will receive £50,000 a year for two years. The project will launch in January 2021 and we will be providing free support, training, mentoring and more to small charities across the South West to improve their work in the global south. Through this grant we will be on-boarding two new members of staff, an Outreach Project Manager and a Finance and Operations Manager.
Overview of 2019-20 Activities
The Global Pandemic and resulting lockdowns saw SWIDN face the challenges many faced as we moved to remote meetings. This adjustment had some impact on the Trainings and Networking offered.
Training
We hosted 5 days of Training attended by 54 people.
Topics covered included: Introduction to institutional donor fundraising and and proposal writing (1 day), Building financial capacity for NGOs and their partners (1 day), Gender and Development: Addressing gender issues in project cycle, design and implementation (1 day), Strengthening safeguarding practice when working with international partners (½ day online), Disability and Development: Understanding disability and improving inclusion in development (1 day online), and Fraud prevention strategies for INGOs and their partner organisations (½ day online).
Our training was rated: An overall average of at least 8+/10 for a combination of usefulness and trainer quality and the majority of respondents agreed the courses had increased their knowledge, skills and confidence and they were able to apply their learning

Financial Review
As well as our Joffe Charitable Foundation grant, in 2018, following a meeting with Bond, the UK network for international NGOs, we learned that SWIDN would receive a grant of £18,750 over 4 years from 2018-2022 as part of Bond’s UK Aid Connect Civil Society Collective grant from the Department for International Development (DFID). This would be in 4 yearly installments with the first one being £3,750 and following installments being £5,000. Due to cuts in International Development Funding the final payment in 2021 was cut to £3,000.
As this report shows, the 18 months to 31/12/20 saw SWIDN achieve an income of £34,329 including: £4,556 from training; £12,672 from membership fees; £15,000 from grants (a proportion of the Bond grant is designated for use in the following year); and £1,200 in kind funding. Expenditure totalled £29,716, including the £1,200 of donated services.
Reserves Policy
IIt is the trustees’ intention, to work towards building up reserves equal to 3 months' essential running costs, which equates to around £7,000. At the balance sheet date the free reserves amounted to £14,457, therefore the trustees have set aside £7,000 in the Contingency Reserve.
The trustees monitor and retain oversight of the charity’s finances at all times and are satisfied that they are being managed effectively and correctly.

Statement of Responsibilities of the Trustees
Trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity 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 charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations.
The trustees 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. The trustees confirm that to the best of their knowledge there is no information relevant to the Independent Examination of which the Examiner is unaware.
The trustees also confirm that they have taken all necessary steps to ensure that they themselves are aware of all relevant financial information and that this information has been communicated to the Examiner.
The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of South West International Development Network
I report on the accounts of the company for 18 months to 31[st] December 2020 which are set out on pages 12 to 17.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is desirable. It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act); and
-
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:
-
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 Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
-
have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

South West International Development Network Notes to the Accounts 18 months to 31st December 2020
[1] Principal Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015), as amended by Update Bulletin 1 issued on 2nd February 2016, and the Charities Act 2011.
South West International Development Network meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
(b) Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charity's balance sheet at 31st December 2020 is in surplus, and planned spending during 2020-21 is limited to what can be covered by the available income. Therefore the trustees are satisfied that the charity is a going concern on an ongoing basis.
(c) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the items of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from grants is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of activities is deferred until the criteria for income recognition have been met (see Note 7).
(d) Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. The total value of such donations during the year in question was £1,200 (2019 £3,610). In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of trustees and volunteers is not recognised with any monetary value.
(e) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. (f) Fund Accounting
[i] Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
[ii] Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside by the Management Committee for particular purposes.
[iii] Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.
- (g) Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. As the charity is not registered for VAT, all VAT on expenditure is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
[i] Costs of raising funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes.
-
[ii] Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities, and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
-
[iii] Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. There were no such costs during the year in question.

South West International Development Network Notes to the Accounts (continued) 18 months to 31st December 2020
(h) Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. These include office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity's charitable activities.
(i) Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.
(j) Fixed Assets
Tangible fixed assets are written off over the expected useful life of the asset, at 25% per annum on the reducing balance method. Individual items costing less than £500 are not treated as fixed assets.
(k) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered.
(l) Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the account.
(m) Creditors
Creditors are recognised where the charitable company has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
(n) Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
