2. Structure, Governance and Management

South West International Development Network (SWIDN) 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. During the year the Trustees delegated the day to day operation of the company to the Network Coordinator, the Outreach Project Manager and the Finance and Operations Manager.

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.

3. Objects and Activities

Charitable Objects

[3]

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.

4. Achievements and Performance

The trustees of the South West International Development Network (SWIDN) are pleased to report on another busy, productive and successful year for SWIDN in 2022. The network has continued to go from strength to strength in terms of both membership numbers, and activities, in pursuit of its stated charitable aims and objectives. With the shared goal to see an end to global poverty, SWIDN plays an active role supporting charitable and voluntary organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty in any part of the world by providing them with training, information, convening services to strengthen collaboration and partnerships, and resources to enable them to pursue their charitable purposes and improve the efficiency and management of their resources.

Vision, Mission & Strategy

SWIDN Vision: A thriving, dynamic and diverse network of organisations and individuals in the South West of the UK who effectively contribute to the global delivery of the UN Sustainable Development Goals(SDG’s).

SWIDN Mission: Strengthen the capacity, knowledge, collaboration and voice of all South West International Development Network (SWIDN) members, enabling them to more effectively work towards the SDGs.

[4]

SWIDN Strategic Objectives:

1. MEMBER SERVICES & COMMUNICATIONS

Support the South West’s international development community to collaborate, learn and knowledge share both on and offline, ensuring we reach members across all the counties, our services and activities are inclusive, and all members are aware of the range of services SWIDN offers.

2. PARTNERSHIPS & EXTERNAL RELATIONS

Through strengthening and building key strategic external partnerships, demonstrate the South West international development community’s contribution to global development. Provide an appropriate platform for our members to collaboratively engage in advocacy.

3. GOVERNANCE & OPERATIONS

Develop a sustainable business plan, which ensures SWIDN can generate funds from a range of sources. Ensure we have a governance structure which is appropriate for SWIDN’s size, represents the diverse member body and allows for structured feedback. Measure SWIDN’s success, be responsive when we are off track, and celebrate our achievements.

Membership

SWIDN members include individuals, non-profits, academics, businesses and consultants. SWIDN continues to grow the membership body, and therefore income from fees, at a steady rate. In addition SWIDN is retaining members, of all types, within the network successfully. Retention of organisational members is particularly strong, we do continue to see some fluctuation in individual members as consultants move in and out of the sector. Memberships fees provide SWIDN with a regular and growing income.

In January 2022 we increased our membership fees for the first time in SWIDN’s history. This was essential to allow us to provide the best possible support to our members for years to come, and to continue to build a thriving, dynamic and diverse international development community. We have only had positive feedback from our members regarding this decision.

Even with a fee increase membership fees alone currently cannot financially sustain SWIDN. Furthermore, as the network grows, more staff time will be required to manage the membership. Although there is still scope to significantly grow the membership base from within the international development sector in south west England, the importance of continuing to explore other income streams remains vital to long-term financial sustainability.

Fundraising

In 2022, we received the second year of funding from UK Aid through the Small Charities Challenge Fund, Capacity Development grant. Through this funding SWIDN provided capability support and development for small INGOs (International Non Governmental Organisations) across the south west, over a two year period, through activities such as training, mentoring which improves their work in the global south. Through this grant, we hired two new members of

[5]

staff - Hannah Doornbos as our Outreach Project Manager, and Roger Taylor as our Finance and Operations Manager in 2021 who continued to work on the grant until March 2022. The grant funding concluded on 31 December 2022. We were thrilled to receive an A+ Rating on our overall delivery of the grant.

We also received funding from Bond through the Civil Society Collective programme which is funded through UK Aid Connect. This grant contributes towards our membership activities and events through funding the staff time of the Network Coordinator.

We continue to seek alternative funding sources.

5. Overview of 2022 Activities

SWIDN Conference: From Development to Solidarity

We listened, discussed and learnt from experts on the topics of: Effective and equal partnerships, solidarity, UK Aid policy, politics and power in global funding for international development, best practice in safeguarding relating to international development; and individual reflection around the philosophy and culture of aid.

We connected in sessions that addressed topics relating to: the role and use of language in international development including addressing decolonisation; innovative funding models; and the location and politics of knowledge generation.

We heard from speakers from:

The SWIDN conference had 204 attendees at 13 events. 88% of poll respondents agreed that the panellists, trainers and speakers represented a wide range of experience and backgrounds. 77% of respondents said the events facilitated connections between peers, and 69% said they felt challenged to reflect, innovate and improve how they work.

[6]

Small Charities Challenge Fund Capacity Development grant

SWIDN launched the ‘Accelerator Scheme’ project in 2021 to build the capacity of small INGOs and funded by UK Aid Connect through the Small Charities Challenge Fund Capacity Development grant. The project was run by our Outreach Project Manager, Hannah Doornbos and Roger Taylor, our Finance and Operations Manager. Our outcome statement of the project was that ‘ small CSOs (Civil Society Organisations) based in South West England will be more effective, and have improved and sustainable capacity to maximise their impact in the Global South.’ We aimed to achieve this through providing access to free, live, relevant training from development professionals; online resources on a range of topics including safeguarding and fundraising; a mentoring programme where individuals from small charities are matched with experienced professionals to support them; working groups on specific issues in the sector; networking opportunities to connect and share with similar organisations and like-minded individuals.

This grant finished in December 2022 and we were awarded an ‘A+ Outcomes moderately exceeded expectations’. The project was assessed as providing invaluable support to small charities on a tight budget with strong potential for sustainability. Impact figures showed the value of this project, with 100% of respondents saying the working groups provided them with new knowledge and skills and 94% of respondents saying SWIDN events allowed them to make new connections which positively impacted their work. SWIDN was assessed as having thought carefully about the results framework and underpinning logic and executed activities around these well, adapting and tailoring their approach when needed. For SWIDN, it was an opportunity to learn a huge amount about our smaller members and how better to support them and their specific needs. One SWIDN member gave feedback in 2022 that ‘The support and access to training and mentoring are fantastic resources.'

Training

In 2022 SWIDN hosted 10 training sessions attended by 108 people.

Topics included: Improved safeguarding for INGOs, Improved safeguarding for UK trustees, Fundraising, Writing for Impact, Effective M&E Frameworks and Racial Justice.

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 practically within their organisations and for the benefit of others.

Working Groups

In 2022 SWIDN held regular working group sessions including a Directors Working Group, Consultants Working Group, Global Solidarity Working Group and Safeguarding Working Group. We also partnered with The Foundation for Social Improvement (The FSI) and the Small International Development Charities Network (SIDCN) to deliver a Fundraising Working Group to small and micro organisations.. 90% of respondents said the Working Groups were a useful place to connect and network with peers, and all respondents said they gained new knowledge from attending these groups.

6. Financial Review

During the year ending 31st December 2022, SWIDN received income of £71,816 (2021 £59,240), of which £51,974 came from a restricted grant from FCDO (2021 £46,535). The remaining income was unrestricted, made up of £8,640 of membership fee income (2021 £8,135), £8,346 unrestricted grant from Bond (2021 £3,000), and £2,555 of other income (2021 £1,570).

Expenditure during the year was £55,043 (2021 £59,400, slightly lower than the previous year primarily due to a gap in staffing whilst recruitment was carried out.

There were no significant debts held at the end of the period, with liabilities being mainly accounting adjustments for deferred income or accrued expenditure. Sundry creditors amounted to £88 (2021: £82).

As the major funding from FCDO came to an end at the end of December 2022, there is a shortfall of income in 2023 to cover the charity’s core activities, meaning that the annual budget includes a fundraising target which is needed to break even over the year. The Trustees have been monitoring the situation closely, and at the time of writing there have been some successes with fundraising enabling activities to continue. The Trustees will continue to keep a close eye on the finances so that in the event of insufficient funds they are able to take timely action. Therefore they are satisfied that SWIDN remains a going concern on an ongoing basis.

Reserves Policy

It is the trustees’ intention, as stated in SWIDN’s Financial Policy and Procedures, to work towards building up reserves equal to 6 months' essential running costs, which equates to around £15,000 (2021 £9,000). At the balance sheet date the free reserves amounted to £17,524 (2021 £7,325). SWIDN holds an additional £9,000 in a designated contingency reserve (2021 £9,000).

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.

[9]

7. 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:

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.

South West International Development Network Notes to the Accounts Year to 31st December 2022

[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 2022 is in surplus, and planned spending during 2023 is limited to what can be covered by the available income. As funding for 2023 is limited, the trustees are monitoring the situation closely to ensure that the charity remains a going concern on an ongoing basis. For more details, see the Financial Review on page 9.

(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. There were no such donations during the year in question (2021 £400). 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.

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.

[14]

South West International Development Network Notes to the Accounts (continued) Year to 31st December 2022

(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.

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.
