Ilvhen the Charty changed to become affiliated to the Samaritans Central Charity in 2017. the local governance structure changed with it. The need for a committee was removed and in its place a Branch Leadership Team was established. This brought together the operational and financial aspects of our work urKler a single structure with the Director also acting as Chair of Trustees. The Director chooses Deputies to join the team which will also include the Treasurer and SeGretary. Trustees will also be included in this tearn and the number of Trustees is set by the Director and Trustees and the number will be between 3 and 13. All Trustees, apart for the Director, will be chosen by the AGM as will the Secretary and Treasurer positions. Composition of the Leadership Tearn will therefore be as follows. Director and Chair of Trustees (automatically a trustee) Deputy Directors Treasurer. (automatically a trustee) Secretary. (automatically a trustee) Trustees. {number to be decided) Director and Deputy Directors are in place for 3 years while others are elected each year at AGM. Deputy Directors may act as Trustees but must be elected at AGM. The Director will represent the Charity at Regional and Central Councils.

Trustee Res onsibilities relatin to the financial records of the Chari Trustees are responsible for ensuring that proper accounting records are kept which disGlose, with reasonable accuracy at that time, the financial position of the Charity, and ensuring that the accounts comply with relevant legislation. The Trustees are issued with full financial reports each month and re￿iVed written Treasurerfs Report at each Committee meeting during the period under review and the Trustees consider such adequate in enabling them to fulfil their duties. The Trustees are required to prepare accounts for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charty. In preparing those accounts the Trustees are required to: Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. In ensuring that the Charity remains solvent. Take reasonable steps to prevent and detect fraud and other i￿egUlar1ties. Prepare the accounts on an ongoing concem basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation. No Trustee has any financial interest in the Charity, and no Trustee received remuneration from the Charity for acting as a Trustee. It is the Policy of the Charrty to reimburse members for any out of pocket expenses incurred during activities undertaken for the purpose of the Charity and this extends to Trustees while perfonning their role. It is the responsibility of the Trustees to administer the Charily and see that it delivers the outcomes for which the Chaiity was formed, and to ensure that the Charity complies with the requirements of the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Public Benefit The Trustees confirm that. in the compilation of this report, they have had regard to the public benefit guidance issued by the Charities Commission. The Trustees affirm that the charitable service of the Charity is available to all sections of the public without limitation of age, social class, gender, race, religion, or geographical restriction. The Charity makes no charge for its services arKI is active in ensuring that callers in financial difficulty are not excluded from the opportunity to benefit from its servI￿s. Relationshi with other relevant charities Nationally Samaritans has fonned partnerships and working agreements with several charities. These arrangements are designed to enhan￿ the service we Gan provide to our callers e.g. signposting. The Portsmouth and East Hampshiie Branch comply with these arrangements. In addition, our Branch has formed partnerships with other local organisations, both charities and public service, to further improve our servi￿. Risk Mana ement The Trustees have considered major risks to which the Charity could be exposed. These are recorded in a Risk Managernent Register and are reviewed on a scheduled basis by the Committee. When deemed necessary steps are agree and implemented lo mitigate an identified risk. The Register was last reassessed arKI amended on 27 March 2024.

Directors Re ort l am once again delighted and honoured to present the annual Director and Trustee report for the financial year erKling in 2024. Our remarkable growth and achievements are owed entirely to our dedicated volunteers. who commit so much time and effort to keep the branch flourishing and accessible to our callers. As of the end of March, we have 146 listening volunteers and 11 support volunteers, a fantastic increase from last yearfs 132 listening volunteers. This steady growth reflects the ongoing commitment and enthusiasm of our team. Last year, our branch answered over 25,000 calls. We are immensely proud of the dedication shown by our volunteers. This year, we celebrated one volunteer who has completed an astounding 45 years as a listening volunteer. Additionally, we have one volunteer who has been with the branch for 15 years and 5 others who have reached a decade of service. Their commitrnent exemplifies the true spirit of our organisation. We continue to build on our outreach efforts and have formed valuable partnerships with organizations such as the Solent NHS Trust, Portsmouth Hospitals. Local Foodbank, the Trussell Trust, Portsmouth Pride, and HSD College, where we support Adult Student Counsellors. Our schools program is thriving. as are our collaborations with Network Rail and Veterans outreach. Additionally, we continue to support the Isle of Wight branch with their prison work. Our recruitment and training prograrns rernain robust, with 24 volunteers successfully completing their training and becoming listening volunteers last year, matching the number from the previous year. Sam's Pla￿, our charity shop, continues to be incredibly successful. It is not only a wonderful. quirky shop but also a thriving community hub where everyone is welcome. We are fortunate to have a dedicated Workfor￿ involved in the shop, and the income generated supports the branch financially. The income from the flat at 298A London Road also contributes to the branch's operations. We are pleased to have recruited new leaders and Deputy Directors (DDS) over the past year. They have settled into their roles well and are enjoying their responsibilities. They re￿1ve regular training to stay informed about new initiatives from Central Office (CO), which are then cornmunicated to our volunteers. l am continually astourKled by the level of support from our leadership team and volunteers. Those who worf( behind the scenes are the unsung heroes of our organisation, and each one of you is deeply appreciated for enabling us to be there for our callers. l extend my heartfelt thanks to all of you.

Financial Review The Charity is responsible for raising its own funds and no funding was given to the Charity by local authorities, public agencies or central govemment during 2023124. All costs for its charitable operations were bome by the funds of the Charity, details of which can be seen in the financial summaries at the end of the Report. Summary The financial statements for the year show an overall increase in funds of £7,947 as a result of total incoming resour￿5 of £86, 112 and resources expended of £78,165. Total net assets at year end of £424,064, including total cash funds and securities of £129,377, of which £610 are funds restricted to the outreach prograrnme. Incoming Resources Re￿iptS decreased by £6,194 compared to the previous year, primarily due to the decrease of £11.567 in Sales of donated goods (including Gift aid) sold through the charity trading company. Resources Expended Total Expenditure only decreased by £1.218 when compared to 2022123, as a result of the following main variances- reduction of £9,082 expenditure incurred with maintenance of the flat" lower affiliation fees recognised in the year of £11,295 and, additional expenditure of £20,000 due to eX￿ptIOnal donation as per below. Charges for the New Branch Contribution (NBC) of £5,300, which is the contribution that this Branch pays to the Central Charity on an annual basis, have been accrued for the current year. The long term revenue streams are performing well. 1. The rental flat continues to be on a long term contract, delivering another full year of income. 2. Sams pla￿ continues to perfomi well above expected. In furtherance of the pursuit of its charitable objectives, the Charity seeks to maximise income from voluntary donations by utilising the Gift Aid scheme and the Grft Aid Small Donations Scheme (GASDS) operated by Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs (HM RC). The Trustees recognise that many of the Branch's Volunteers waive the option to claim for reimbursernent of expenses. This is equivalent to making a gift to the Charity, and the Trustees acknowledge the beneficial effect this has on Branch finances. We received a restricted donation of £756 with no limitation date, to be used in Outreach. However, where there are restricted donations brought fopNard frorn previous years, and where there is no limilation of date by which these funds are to be exhausted imposed by donors, the Trustees expect that the fund will be put to timely charitable use. The trustees agreed to donate £20, 000 to Walsall & District Samar"rtans to kickstart their appeal for funds to help rebuild their building due to flooding and general disrepair. This donation is in keeping with the Samaritan ethos of providing and maintaining a service to the general public in helping to prevent suicide and suicidal thoughts. Reserves Polic The Reseprfes Policy was reviewed in the financial period 2018119 and has been declared as follows..

Our unrestricted reseNes will be kept in the region of 125- 150Yo of the "Annual running Gosts. Galculaled from expenditure figures stated in the Financial Statements of the Chanty as published in its annual reports for the three most recent accounting periods. In short, this can be expressed as Reserves sufficient to cover expected outgoings for 15 to 18 months. Based on 2023124 unrestricted resources expended this is £95,345 to £114,414. Our unrestricted cash funds total at 31 March 2024 were £128.767, which is the total cash fund less the restricted funds. This level will be kept under review and may be varied rf thought necessary and may be expressed alternatively as a target level, or target range. Investment Polic and Investment Perfomiance The ConstitLrtion gives powers to the Trustees in the manner in which the assets of the Charity are invested. During the period under review the Charity had no investments or monetary assets other than cash deposits and a Treasury backed security. In the selection of deposit accounts or investments for the Charity, Èt is the policy of the Trustees to seek to obtain rnaximum retum without undue risk. To this end the Trustees ensure that any cash deposits andlor investments in the Charity's name are covered and safeguarded by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. During 2023124 cash at bank was not always rTtaintained at an average equivalent to approximately 12 weeks of operating costs. The closing cash at bank position will be reviewed by the Trustees and invested at the beginning of 2024125. Other cash assets are deposited in 7-day notice accounts. Full investment retums are therefore obscured until account anniversary dates. Examination of accounts By virtue of its size, the Charity is not required to have its accounts audited and, under the Charities Act 2011 , it is pemiitted to have its accounts examined by an Independent Examiner. At the AGM in September 2023, it was agreed by the trustees that Morris Crocker. Chartered Accountants be re-appointed as the Independent Examiner for the financial year 1 St April 2023 to 31 St March 2024 in accordan￿ with clause 13.2 of the Constitution. roval of annual re rts and financial statements This Annual Report and Financial Statements was granted approval by the Trustees of Samaritans of Portsmouth and East Harnpshire on ?? September 2024 and the following persons are authorised to sign it on their behalf. Director Helen Puckett Trustee Ann J Erskine
