Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of
Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance

Objectives and actlvltles
History
Gateway Debt Advice began in May 2016 as a small project based at the Church of the
Saviour, CoLLyhurst, North Manchester. It was to provide a locally known and safe place
where people could receive debt advice to help them make a fresh start free of debt. In
July 2017, Gateway Debt Advice was constituted as a CIO, Charitable Incorporated
Organisation, under the name Gateway M40-the local postcode designat5on. In June
2020, Gateway M40 moved its base of operations from Church of the Saviour, which
couLd no longer accommodate the growing needs of the charity, to offices in Wilsons
Park, Monsall, still within the postcode area.
Objects
The purposes of Gateway M40 as set out in its constitution are:
The prevention or relief of poverty in the Archdeaconry of Manchester by
providing grants, items and services to individuals in need and other organisations
working to prevent or relieve poverty.
To advance the education of the public in the Archdeaconry of Manchester in
money management, budgeting, growing and cooking food and computer skills to
enable them to develop their capacity and skills in such a way that they are better able
to identify, and help meet, their needs and to participate more fully in society.
Activities
The core activity of Gateway M40 is to offer free client debt advice to help individuals to
become free of debt. The advice offered considers all options for debt resolution and
how they might best serve each individual client. It is always the client's choice as to
which option is taken. It is part of our service to help clients maximise their income and
minimise their expenditure. This involves help with budget creation, benefit checks and

GATEWAY M40
signposting to other services that might help. We work with partners to deliver a food
pantry service serving thousands of clients each year,
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on
public benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives, in planning future
activities, and setting the policies for the year.
A review of our achlevements and performance: How our activitles dellvered public
benefit
North Manchester remains an area of significant deprivation, with high unemployment
and health inequalities. Gateway M40's client base reflects this recording that over half
are either unemployed or unable to work due to disability: More than two-thirds of clients
are women, indicating a gendered economic hardship trend; and almost a quarter of
clients are aged 60+, many of whom are on fixed incomes. The data demonstrates strong
alignment between Gateway M40's services and local needs, particularly among those
most at risk of financial exclusion.
Against this background Gateway M40 helped more than fourthousand clients delivering
comprehensive debt advice and welfare rights advocacy services, food pantry services
and as a partner organisation of both The Flexible Frontline Fund and Acts 435 delivering
personal grants and goods directly to clients. Throughout 2024 Gateway has managed
almost £1.8 million of debt of which 22Vo was priority debt. Over the year Gateway
processed 47 Debt relief Orders and 2 Bankruptcy's; significant use was made of informal
arrangements (e.g, write off's) and budgeting support to help with debt management. In
the same year Gateway has also delivered over £1.4 millions of increased income to
clients. Grant support from Acts 435 and the Frontline fund totalled just under £67,000
and the remainder (over £1.3 million) was delivered through benefit applications,
adjustments and appeals. Also significant to our work are the team of volunteers that run
ourfood pantry service. This is a partnership service we offerwith"The Bread and Butter
Thing" serving on average 65 clients each week. The vast majority of these receive the
"family grocery" pack (feeding families of three or more) and the remainder receive the
'individual grocery" pack. This means that each year we give over 3,000 grocery packs
perhaps feeding as many as nine thousand or more hungry stomachs! Our work to help
deliver Christmas sacks that provide toys for children remains steady at just over 200
families. Again the data shows that Gateway M40 plays a pivotal role in supporting
vulnerable individuals, particularly the unempLoyed, those with disabilities, and families
facing financial distress.
Accessibility of our services remains high as we maintain and develop Gateway's
presence across North Manchester. This is done through offering triage services in
several different centres including churches, GP surgeries, and other service providers.
This means clients who need our services can make first contact in places they know and

GATEWAY M40
where we can show them how we can help and what that help entails. That we are
proficient at engaging with clients and building trust is evidenced in that 400/0 of new
clients come to us because they have heard good things about us from people they know.
Clients referred from other agencies account for about 22% and those who have used
one or more of our services previously account for another 24%. This reflects strong
grassroots trust and inter-agency collaboration but does highlight our as yet limited
digital reach. Gateway continued to increase its digital presence in 2024 aiming to
address this issue and we anticipate that 2025 statistics will show positive results from
this.
Other issues that will need to be given attention in 2025 will be to capture and analyse
ethnicity and language data to assess cultural inclusivity. We also note that we mlght to
ensure we are connecting with younger adults as they are minimally represented in our
statistics. The level of clients presenting with increasingly complex cases has in no way
diminished. Such case take much longer to resolve and mostly require multiple referrals
to other service providers high lighting our need to both maintain and deveLop partnership
working and staff training around issues, around gambling, illegal money lending, mental
health issues and even suicide and prevention. We are also aware that we might need to
consider larger premises moving into the future.
The challenges are many and the amazing work of our staff and volunteers is constantly
demanding. Nine the less through their faithful endeavour Gateway M40 continues to
Serve as a lifeline for individuals and families in financial crisis in North Manchester. The
years gone highlights the essential role the organization plays in tackling debt and
supporting vulnerable residents through advice, advocacy, and financial empowerment.
As economic pressures persist, our commitment to strengthening community resilience
remains unwavering.
l end this report with a few words from Gateway's clients:
Client J
"I was overthe moon with what Jo did for mewhen I woke up this morning I thought I
can finally live a life now."
J was having incorrect deductions from her UC payments and getting no help or support
from her case manager. Gateway put a note on herjournal and Jade continued to make
teLephone contact. Eventually the mistake was corrected, and her payments were
increased. She J was also reimbursed over £4.000.
Client MW
"l just don't know what to say, you and your team are absolutely amazing, thank you 80
much for all your help and support"

GATEWAY M40

alcohol dependence. Helped to complete a Debt and Mental Health Evidence Form it
was presented to creditors who wrote off debt over ten thousand pounds.
Cllent RB
"l just wanted to say thank you for your amazing help and support the service is an
absolute lifeline for helping people like me get their lives back on track l am forever
gratef u L"
RB needed a Debt Relief Order and received budget help to stabilise their income and
expenditure. They were introduced to the food pantry where they now volunteer. RB was
also awarded a Glasspool grant for household items.
Cllent KB
Jo went above and beyond to assist my niece with debt advice and helping h8r obtain a
debt relief order. My niece suffers from severe mental health and finds it difficult to
communicate and leave the house, but Jo was extremely patient and understanding of
her needs and took the extra time to make her feel comfortable ensuring that she fully
understood everything and allowing her the extra time she needed to communicate and
gather paperwork. She was very kind and made her feel at ease which made the process
more manageable for her to deal with. Thanks for all your help with everything Jo, you're
a8tarx
Client F

theywere both amazing and very funnywhich made myworrying better I went home and

Cllent BD
For someone like me, who has anxiety disorder and PTSD the personable face to face
contact and support was so beneficial and helped alLeviate any worries and concerns.

Through the amazing support I can now look to a future. M40Gateway have saved my life,
they are an absolute lifeline indeed...
Client G
Jo was amazing, genuinely kind and compassionate. I cannotthank her enough. Getting
help from Gateway M401 can honestly say saved my life. I had overwhelming thoughts
of suicide and could see no way out of my money problems. Jowent above and beyond
to help both me and my son {who is currently being treated for Lymphoma) He

GATEWAY M40
absolutely and genuinely adores Jo. Jo as kept in touch making sure, we are both ok.
Thank you all for your help and understanding. If any of my friends are having problems,
I wilL tell them about GatewayM40.
Flnancial revlew
Expenditure in 2024 was £275,256 and income totalled £356,315. This in year surplus
was anticipated in our budgets and with monies held over from 2023 means Gateway
M40 ends 2024 with £158,000 in our bank accounts as we move into 2025. We thank all
our funders for their support, notably in this year The National Lottery Community Fund,
The Henry Smith Charity, Tudor Trust and one smaller but useful grant from Manchester
City Council.
By far our biggest expenditure is salary related costs this year totalling over £153,000. This
reflects Gateways intention to spend our financial resources in the way that best serves
our clients. Without question it is the work of our staff, the face-to-face cLient work they
do, and the administrative work required by the caseloads they carry that achieves the
amazing results we do on behalf of our clients. This year we also facilitated the giving of
over £28.000 directly to our clients in small grants resulting from our partnership with
Acts 435 whose generous donors have responded so generously to the needs we post on
behalf of our clients. Afurther£37,OOOwas passedto clients through ourpartnershipwith
Glasspool IFlexibLe Frontline Funds). This is a new partnership for us and is meeting a real
need. Over £24,000 was paid in rent 8nd utilities a figure that reflects the increases
imposed by the ongoing effects of inflation and cost of living increases. In this year the
trustees needed professional advice before they could make informed decisions
regarding an employment concern. This resulted in our only other large expenditure of
fifteen thousand pounds. The remaining expenditure a little under 26¥0 of total
expenditure represent the sundry expense need to run the office and the work Gateway
undertakes.
Investment powers and policy
The trustees. having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the charity, have
kept available funds in a savings account.
Reserves policy and golng concern
The balance held in unrestricted reserves at 31 st December 2024 was £92,860 of which
£90.428 are free reserves after allowing for funds tied up in fixed assets.
The Charity's main source of income is grants. The Trustees considerthat it is appropriate
to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis and, consequently, the accounts do
not include any adjustments that would be necessary if these sources of income should
cease. The trustees aim to establish and maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at

GATEWAY M40
a level which equates to approximately three months of unrestricted charitable
expenditure.
The trustees consider that this level will provide sufficient funds to respond to
applications for grants and ensure that support and governance costs are covered. The
trustees consider that the charity is a going concern. Any reliance on grant funding is
managed through a flexible approach to activities and project delivery.
Risk management
As the charity continues to establish itself the trustees will conduct a review of the major
risks to which the charity may be exposed, and systems will be established to mitigate
those risks.
Plans for Future Periods
We begin 2025 with a determined and hopefulvision thatthe workwe do will continue to
serve the people of North Manchester; changing the lives of individuals and families as
we help to release them from debt and maximise incomes. We end 2024 confident that
we will meet our budget needs for 2025. We have a further two years of funding from the
National Lottery Community fund which will provide 1 OOK in 2025 and we have a secured
30k from Henry Smith who we hope to approach for continuation funding. This along wlth
reserves and the possibility of other applications secures 2025 and Leads us confidently
into 2026, However as the demand for our services continues to grow it is likely we WILI
need to consider some form of expansion including increased staff numbers and larger
premises; this will undoubtedly require increased funding. However based on our
experience of fundraising we are confident we can achieve what needs to be done.
Another pressing need is to grow and diversify the membership of our board of trustees.
