Objectives, strategies and activities

The charity was formed on 16 November 2017 and commenced to operate on 1 September 2018 when the assets, liabilities and operations of an unincorporated charity Bentilee Volunteers Community Association were transferred to the CIO.

Public benefit

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Our Mission is to be at the heart of our local community by providing invaluable and essential services to the people of Bentilee and surrounding areas, enabling them to achieve a better quality of life and develop community pride through the services we provide and the opportunities for them to volunteer and help others. We wish to enable and empower local people and our local community, and to continue to raise funds to enable us to do this.

We do this by offering practical services and by working alongside residents and local people to help improve their quality of life, enhance their opportunities and increase their aspirations.

We also aim to offer meaningful and worthwhile volunteering opportunities.

Bentilee Volunteers CIO

Trustees report (continued)

We aim to achieve our mission and core values by delivering the following services:

• Providing volunteering opportunities for local people to help increase their self-esteem and aspirations, as well as giving them the opportunity to help others.

• Delivering youth services to those aged between 8-19 years by providing a fun, safe and friendly environment by means of our Youthlink Project. Thus helping to alleviate exclusion, prevent anti-sociable behaviour through early intervention and help improve and increase the aspirations of young people.

• Provide social, creative and interactive activities to adults with learning disabilities who are often socially excluded. By means of our Rainbow Club we provide an inclusive and safe haven, fun interaction, excursions to interesting and stimulating places and the opportunity to learn and develop new skills and abilities, as well as make new friends.

• Providing social activities to adults over the age of 50 years by means of our Neighbourlink/ Seniors Project, thus offering the chance for older and often housebound residents the opportunity to get out of their home, partake in enjoyable and sociable activities with their friends and neighbours, as well as a hot home cooked meal at an affordable price. We also provide transport to and from the club at a nominal fee.

• Providing free access to computers and the internet, whereby individuals can receive support with online services, including benefit claims, social media and employment opportunities.

• Selling affordable household furniture items and goods, as well as clothing to those in need by means of recycling unwanted goods in our Charity Shop and furniture recycling shop, The Shed. Linking in with local housing associations to collect and re-use furniture from vacated properties and to provide those in need with free furniture & household items if possible.

• To be able to offer appropriate services and support as and when the local community needs it and to respond to these in a timely and effective way.

Achievements and Performance

Our work in this community began in 1985 and we employed our first part time worker in 1987; and became a charity in 1990, with our core aim of being at the heart of the local community by providing essential services that enable local people achieve a better quality of life, develop community pride and help support positive changes in people’s lives. We registered as a CIO in November 2017.

We are an organisation that is proud to be driven by its core values, which is to support and strengthen the community of Bentilee by enabling and empowering local people. We do this by offering practical services and support, by working alongside residents and local people to help improve their quality of life, enhance their opportunities and increase their aspirations. We support the disadvantaged and work hard to lessen marginalisation and decrease the stigma attached to the area of Bentilee and its residents

All of our staff are employed on a part-time basis and the cost of salaries is met by constant fundraising. See section 17 (Funds) for details of our funders this year and Section 4 (Income from other Trading Activities) for our locally raised funds (via our community enterprises and donations). This year we have employed a total of 15 staff who have recruited and supported around 20 volunteers, mainly from the local community.

Trustees report (continued)

Our projects and services include the following:

Neighbourlink/Seniors

This project was set up in 1985 to address the needs of many elderly isolated members of this community and pre-COVID-19 provided 3 lunch clubs for up to 110 people each week, with transport provided for disabled members on our minibus. With the benefits of trips, as well as advice and support for those who need it. It was a lifeline to many of our members and continued until COVID-19 restrictions forced closure in March 2020 and subsequently the redundancy of 7 staff. However, we were pleased to re-open this service in October 2022, thus re-introducing projects for older members of the community, whilst continuing to encourage and support older people as volunteers. Seniors operates twice a week and employs 5 part-time staff.

Youthlink

We were able to continue providing youth services, following our success in securing 3 years funding from The Henry Smith Charity. Our Youth project continues to employ 3 youth workers, providing 4 sessions each week. Based in The Pavilion in Bentilee park, we provide an essential service of support and advice as well as recreational activities. We play an important role in reducing anti-social behaviour, especially as some of our members are excluded from school and have little parental support. We encourage our members to take joint trips out with our Rainbow group (for adults with learning disabilities) and we are very pleased to have changed perceptions and behaviour for the better. The club remains popular and successful with around 160 young members over the last 12 months, aged 8 to 19.

Rainbows

With funding from The Baily Thomas Charitable Fund this project has continued, remained a popular club, supporting up to 20 adults, with a range of learning disabilities, during each session. Some members are accompanied by carers and we have further developed our partnerships with several local agencies and care homes. We continue to provide a range of social activities and trips, aiming to help members become more confident and with some volunteering within the organisation. Rainbows employed 2 part-time staff to support members, volunteers and carers, running twice weekly.

Online Services Support

This services continues with the valued help of our volunteers. We provide free access to online services, with 1:1 support if needed, including benefit claims, social media and searching and applying for job vacancies, having a C.V. reviewed and updated. It also offers the opportunity to learn some valuable basic IT skills, all with the aim of increasing well-being, aspirations, opportunities and employability of local people. From August 2023 we also started working with ‘We Are Digital’, who refer clients to us for digital support with filling in forms online, benefit appeals, disability allowance and much more.

Chatty Café

This was a new interim service introduced in July 2021 to help increase social interaction and reduce isolation, following COVID-19 closures. This ceased when our Neighbourlink/Seniors project re-opened.

Upcycling

Run by volunteers with supervision from staff. The focus of the project is improving mental health and well-being, building confidence and skills. The project’s aim is to purchase a Shed to provide a dedicated space for working and storage.

Our local enterprises (Charity Shop; Furniture Shop; On Line Sales) continue to provide important services to our local community as well as important funds for The Organisation.

Trustees report (continued)

Development of Volunteers

Building strength and capacity within the community. Our volunteers are for the most part, residents who have lived on the estate for many years. We aim to continue reaching out to as many people as possible, including economic migrants and asylum seekers, to help to integrate them into this community. Sometimes volunteering is a short term arrangement but the experience is valuable for both them and us, helping with social cohesiveness. We are a valuable resource within the City and we constantly try to link with other statutory and voluntary organisations within the City. Our volunteer attendance and recruitment has been less than previously due to the effects of COVID-19 and continuing fluctuation in infection rates but we continue working to reach as many as possible.

Financial Review

See pages 7 - 17

Due to an internal review the catergories under which income and expenditure is reported has been altered this year to provide clearer information to our stakeholders.

Policy on Reserves

Our general reserves equate to £64,421 (2022: £55,785) which equates to just over 5 months running costs. Our reserves policy is to hold a minimum of 6 months running costs so there is a deficit again this year and we continue to work hard and fundraise to re-build reserves which were reduced during Covid-19 and now from the cost of living increases.

Important non-adjusting events after the financial period

We continue to have the support of Stoke City Council and are still working with them in relation to the Asset Transfer of 19 Brackenfield Avenue. All our projects remained open during 2022/23 following COVID-19 closures with our Neighbourlink/Seniors Project finally re-opening in October 2022.

Following COVID-19, footfall and membership remains less than previous years, meaning continued impact on income from sales and services and our plans to rebuild our reserves are delayed again, but enthusiasm remains high and we will continue to work towards this, to ensure the longevity of our projects and services.
