REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The income into the Charity has enabled the Branch to continue to provide emotional support throughout the year in line with its charter. This work was carried on throughout the period of Covid restrictions.
Financial Review
The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended the 31 March 2022. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities and with the charities act.
The balance of unrestricted funds at the 31 March 2022 is stood at £61678 for Folkestone Dover and Hythe Samaritans and £21315 for the Folkestone Dover and Hythe Friends of the Samaritans.
Reserves policy
It is the Charities policy to try and maintain reserves to cover one years expenditure. This will ensure that the Charity can sustain its activities in the event of fluctuations in amounts raised by fundraising and individual donations and so provide an uninterrupted service to our callers. The Trustees are of the view that the Trust and group are a going concern.
Structure Governance and Management
Constitution and Governance
The Folkestone Dover and Hythe Samaritans form a branch of the Samaritans which is a registered charity number 1174193 and which acts as its governing body.
Risk Management
The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the charity are to provide emotional support to anyone in personal crisis and at the risk of suicide. We operate on a shift basis 365 days per annum and focus our shifts on times of most need based upon call volume data we receive from the Samaritans Central Charity.
Our service is provided by trained volunteers who have the time, skills and capacity to listen to people talking about their feelings. This service is confidential and non-judgemental. Contact is either by telephone or email. Corona virus restrictions have prevented face to face contact. We operate from Folkestone and our volunteers come from the areas surrounding Folkestone Dover and Hythe.
Achievements and Performance
In the past year we have achieved and performed in line with our constitution. We have continued to recruit and train new volunteers against a challenging background.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees
