Introduction from the Chair of Trustees

Welcome to our 2021/2022 annual report!

Oxfordshire Breastfeeding Support has been on an incredible journey of growth and momentum since we registered as a charity in 2016. This year we continue to grow in our influence, financial diversity and ambitions.

We were expecting the year to bring challenges of a return to hybrid and physical working after a year of predominantly virtual breastfeeding support, and we have taken up this challenge, continuing to learn how to use the best parts of old and new as you’ll see in these pages.

We didn't expect a different challenge coming at the end of the year - that our wonderful Project Lead, Jayne Joyce, would be offered the chance of a lifetime to become one of a small team of international authors for a new edition of La Leche League International's flagship book The Art of Breastfeeding. We are so grateful for Jayne's unending and inspirational commitment to OBS, and our previous incarnation OBCG, and wish her all our congratulations and good wishes for her new position, which she started in the new financial year. Thanks so much to Kawther Alfasi for stepping up to become interim Project Lead and to Lisa Mansour as interim Clinical Lead after Jayne’s departure. OBS is particularly proud that Cathy Berry, who has been a wonderful OBS volunteer peer supporter for a long time, was able to take over Jayne’s clinical work, as she has worked hard to be certified as an Association of Breastfeeding Mothers (ABM) breastfeeding counsellor. Welcome also to Hannah Dingwall-Jones, who was initially appointed as a temporary administrator, taking over Kawther’s previous role. They have all shown such hard work, good sense and commitment to OBS, ably supported by the rest of our wonderful team.

I took over as Chair of Trustees this year from Juliet Rayment, who remained my wing-woman, much relied upon as we navigated the year’s challenges. Thanks to all my wonderful Trustees who started or finished the financial year with OBS - Louise, Juliet, Sev, Danielle, Wanja, Rain, Khatsha and Anna. A group of dynamic and passionate women who strive to help OBS deliver our charitable purpose in the most effective and efficient way (despite all having extremely busy lives and young children). As always we are on the lookout for new trustees as people move on, so do get in touch if you’re interested in the role.

Here’s to the next phase of the journey!

Ilana Levene, Chair of Trustees, April 2022

Aims and objectives

At OBS we believe that breastfeeding, and breastmilk, are deeply important. Our mission is to “increase breastfeeding, provision of breastmilk and responsive feeding for babies in Oxfordshire by:

Educating and empowering Oxfordshire families to define and achieve their feeding goals.
Taking a lead role in developing an integrated network of breastfeeding support throughout Oxfordshire, so that all parents can access skilled, timely, local breastfeeding help.”

Achievements and performance

“I wanted to say a huge thank you to the team for all the help you've given me. I did one of the antenatal Zoom workshops, had email contact, looked at the Facebook group, had 1:1 sessions with Jayne and Lisa and have seen Charlotte at the Botley Bridges group and all of it has been absolutely super.

My daughter has just turned 1 and I'm so pleased to say that I managed to breastfeed her the whole of this time, despite the many challenges I found. Being a first time mum and doing it all during lockdown was very tough but it was made more manageable by knowing that help was out there and it was really great help and advice, never feeling that I had a stupid question."

Victoria, August 2021

In person sessions

Just over 16 months after we closed all our drop-in sessions and switched to 100% virtual working to prepare for the pandemic, we reopened our first in-person sessions. We trialled two per week in July - at Donnington and Didcot - and opened two more in September, in Barton and Kidlington. The venues were chosen based on our 2021 Impact Assessment, which stressed accessibility, parking and good transport links as key factors for our service users.

We are pleased to continue our partnership with Didcot Baby Monday, while our session at Barton Neighbourhood Centre runs alongside a lively toddler group, which provides a welcoming social space for families.

It felt both deeply familiar and a little strange to be back in the room with parents again. Masks were required and capacity was limited, yet the special magic of being in the room and connecting families together can still work. It was wonderful to see our volunteer peer supporters in action, listening and affirming with their characteristic empathy, and to have student and healthcare observers at our sessions once again. Our new booking system - Calendly - has also enhanced the quality of our service, enabling families to describe their feeding issue and to request any needed adjustments, such as privacy screens, a quieter environment, pronouns or other words they would like us to use.

Cathy, OBS volunteer and cover facilitator, supporting families at Donnington Doorstep

“I imagine people probably don't get in contact so much unless there is something wrong so I wanted to make sure you know how helpful you are to women and their babies. I don't want to sound dramatic but you honestly changed my life! You literally had the biggest impact on my life and mood over and above all of the other services I have experienced since becoming pregnant so I am so grateful.“

Katherine, May 2021

In October we surveyed service users to find out what they thought of our new-look, bookable in-person sessions. We sent our survey by email to every family who had attended an in-person session since we restarted them on July 2nd. 111 surveys were sent out. 32 responses were returned. 80% of attendees said our service fully or partially helped resolve their feeding problem .

We also received constructive feedback on ways in which we could improve our service. Based on this, we made a number of modifications:

Splitting sessions into two timed 1-hour slots, and booking half the families separately for each hour
More comfortable seating at Kidlington
A longer session at Donnington Doorstep
More focus on encouraging the social dimension of our sessions

Virtual 1:1 consultations

The biggest learning and innovation from virtual working is how effective Zoom consultations can be. We love how they enable us to give 1:1 time to families, and to increase access to families who would struggle to come in person due to distance, mobility, transport, caring responsibilities and other barriers. We have started to offer some consultations at the weekends/in evenings, which enables women to attend with their partner for language and emotional support. Online consultations also provide us with much-need flexibility and resilience: sessions that are cancelled for any reasons, such as sickness or Covid-19 absences, can be converted to 1:1 slots. Fortunately, we have only had to do this a handful of times.

“Every time I wanted to give up, I talked to Lisa. It really helped that I always got a response within hours of sending in a request for one-on-one support. Talking to Lisa gave me goals and made me focus on trying new things, instead of how miserable I was. And then, a little after eight weeks, I woke up one day to realise that breastfeeding no longer hurt at all. It was definitely gradual, but I was surprised to find that none of my feeding sessions were painful anymore. I could look at my daughter and enjoy this time with her. “

Majd, August 2021

“I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to Jane Joyce for her help last week. She spent time with me, my son Otis and his nanny Olivia to help us work out a plan for my return to work as Otis was refusing to take a bottle. Jayne was so kind and helpful and totally put my mind at ease. It was my first day in the office today and following Jayne’s advice I breastfed right up to the last minute and was totally chilled….I have Jayne to thank for such a peaceful start to the next phase of my feeding journey with Otis. Thank you!”

Lucy Dixon, December 2021

OBS Zoom Group

Our OBS Zoom Group changed focus, in response to the reopening of in-person sessions and 15 months of experimenting to find out “what works” at each stage of the pandemic. The frequency of OBS Group reduced from weekly to fortnightly last summer, after the easing of Covid restrictions.

From September it has run monthly, offering two parallel learning and discussion groups on “hot topics” related to breastfeeding, such as normal infant sleep, returning to work and starting complementary foods. We no longer offer feeding support within the group; this need can be met more effectively via in-person sessions and virtual consultations. This has reduced the level of facilitator input, diverting costs to providing more 1:1 consultations. Each session is co-led by a facilitator and our trusted, longstanded volunteer health visitor (and Holistic Sleep Coach) Vanessa Campion.

We have produced presentations for each OBS group topic, which lends these sessions consistency, and the ability to be delivered by new facilitators in future.

“ Dear Team! I wish to thank you for the amazing sesion today. It was really helpful and I have heard so many great information. I hope I will be able to attend on another great session soon.”

Eva, March 2022

Antenatal breastfeeding education sessions

We have continued to offer monthly antenatal education sessions on Zoom. Attendance figures are higher than pre-pandemic levels: sessions take place in the daytime, and we frequently see people attending from their workplaces, including partners and other supporters. We also offer bespoke antenatal consultations for mothers for service users with previous feeding trauma and/or risk factors for complex feeding problems. Antenatal service users are invited to join our private Facebook group, and are also welcome to attend our in-person sessions to chat with facilitators, volunteers and other families.

“I found the resources that were signposted really helpful. It was also useful to get to know the people delivering the session so that when I had to come back for support immediately after having the baby I felt much more confident to speak to the facilitators even though I was stressed and exhausted.”

OBS service user, March 2022

Facebook

Our private, closely-moderated Facebook group is a supportive, friendly environment in which mothers can seek feeding support, from other parents, OBS peer supporters and our specialist facilitator team. We are continuing to experiment with its format, channelling it as an avenue for social connectedness between families as well as for providing evidence-based information.

We have introduced regular ‘buddy thread’ Facebook posts, in which we invite members to ‘post connection requests below and link up by PM’. We have seen the following connections made:

Portuguese, Dutch , Spanish, Hungarian & French speakers
Two-mum families
Chatting about returning to work
Breastfeeding toddlers & sleep

With the support of our volunteers, we also held a Facebook Live Q&A in May 2021 on breastfeeding and the Covid-19 vaccine. Our volunteers included a consultant midwife and consultant doctor.

Other social media platforms have helped us to stay engaged with our service users and supporters.

Regular social media posting on Facebook and Twitter. Increased presence on Instagram Sharing video clips of ‘what to expect’ at our sessions Emails to our list

OBS Volunteers

We have continued to encourage growth in the skillsets of our existing volunteers, and to successfully train new volunteer peer supporters via the ABM Peer Supporter course. Volunteers are integral to our work at every level: they are a friendly, welcoming face at our sessions, providing support and reassurance, and normalising infant behaviour. Their scope is diverse: some regularly commit to in-person sessions; others respond to queries and concerns with evidence-based information on Facebook, or provide tech support during our busy online Zoom groups.

“I really enjoy being part of the support system that OBS offers to families wherever they are on their breastfeeding journey. I love meeting the different families and find that my experience and knowledge comes in useful at times. Not only is it great to see how families benefit from the assistance and encouragement they get from OBS but I too benefit from being part of a friendly and kind community of volunteers and facilitators of the OBS team.”

Vanessa, Volunteer Health Visitor

We have successfully inducted 7 new volunteers (6 ABM-trained peer supporters, 1 student midwife)
1 of our teenage FNP (Family Nurse Partnership) clients completed the ABM course
1 of our Peer Supporters is working at OUH as a maternity support worker
1 Peer Supporter is training as a Breastfeeding Counsellor
2 of our peer supporters - Meg and Cathy - became Breastfeeding Counsellors, and the latter started working as an OBS cover facilitator
Sam, Peer Supporter, continues to operate our important low-cost pump loan service. We loaned 63 times in the year 2021-22.
Vanessa, our volunteer health visitor, supported us in producing information leafets on normal infant sleep.

For students and health professionals

We are delighted to have restarted observations for students and healthcare professionals at our in-person sessions, enabling them to increase their breastfeeding knowledge and competences. We also offered observations of our online Zoom groups, antenatal sessions and online 1:1 consultations. Observers can book to observe our in-person sessions via Calendly, and sign up to a WhatsApp group to be notified of last-minute, online observation opportunities.

Dani B, student midwife, ready to observe a 1:1 consultation

“Observing OBS has been so useful as a student midwife, especially during the pandemic. The team have provided so many opportunities for us to observe, which has been great for increasing knowledge and skills. OBS is a truly amazing service that Oxford is very lucky to have! I will continue to recommend this service to women I care for.”

Amy, 3rd year student midwife, Oxford Brookes University

Other opportunities offered for the development of breastfeeding support skills included:

2 hours of training for GP trainees
1 whole day skills teaching and 1 whole day skills assessment for student midwives
2 sessions jointly for Brookes midwifery students & the medical school, on normal birth and infant feeding: a recently launched initiative. A 3rd one takes place in April.
Providing consultations for and/or sharing resources with staff from a number of healthcare providers and voluntary organisations.

We presented our service to the HV service practitioners’ Breakfast Club and the HV Teen Champions meeting, which was well-attended by Health Visitors from all over Oxfordshire. We have continued to participate in the Countywide Breastfeeding Strategy Group, which revised the Oxfordshire guidelines on faltering growth.

Sharing best practices is critical to continuous improvement, both of our own services and those with which we collaborate. In the preceding year…

Widening access

We have taken incremental but important steps towards making adjustments for service users with specific accessibility needs, and ensuring that everyone feels supported at our sessions. In response to our learning from the ‘Peer to Peer Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Series’, facilitated by the Oxford Hub, we created a ‘back door’ to our booking systems, inviting people to give us their phone number for a callback from the Operations team if they need help with making a booking. Over the phone, we can also fill in our forms with families if necessary.

We have purchased a privacy screen and obtained access to private feeding spaces at our in-person sessions, in order to meet the needs of mothers who feel uncomfortable feeding in front of other people, and the needs of those who benefit from minimal background noise in their sensory environment.

Following feedback from service users on how their own mothers and female relatives served as their feeding champions, we have adapted our messaging to make it clear that all feeding supporters are welcome at our sessions.

Deepa Santhosh, current Masters in Midwifery student and former infant feeding lead for an NHS trust, began working with our team as a Guest Facilitator at some OBS Zoom Group sessions and provided her first OBS 1:1 Zoom consultation with a family in Hindi. We look forward to working with her more closely in the coming year, and to reaching diverse communities through her skills, experience, and proficiency in five languages.

OBS co-sponsored Black Breastfeeding Week 2021 in August. We also contacted two of Oxford’s largest majority Black churches - Word Foundation Christian Ministries and New Life Covenant Church - who are happy to share information about our services with families in their community.

Family Nurse Partnership

Our work with Family Nurse Partnership has expanded, offering joint virtual antenatal conversations and flexible postnatal feeding support to teenage mothers via text, WhatsApp, and virtual consultations. Over the last year, we saw 27 new FNP clients, compared to 15 in the preceding 12 months. We also arranged our first home visit with an FNP nurse, and offered support via Facebook PM for a young mother with mental health and domestic abuse issues with social care involvement.

Supporting research

We have continued to support good research by disseminating surveys online, including research by an Oxford Brookes Midwifery students’ Master’s dissertation on baby sleep location, developed in response to a suggestion from the OBS team. Our volunteers also participated in a focus group with a local obstetrician who is designing a research project on inequality in health outcomes for women after birth.

We directly supported Kath Townsend, MSc student in Public Health with UWE Bristol, with her research on ‘Mothers’ perceptions of video calls for breastfeeding support during the Covid-19 pandemic’.

All study participants were recruited from our service users. In December 2021, Kath’s findings revealed a generally very high level of satisfaction with video consultations.

OBS in the news

In August, our Project Lead was interviewed on local radio station Jack FM 11.08.21 talking about research that is being done on expressing milk for premature babies (a project that is led by our Chair Ilana at the University of Oxford).

All about our service users

Figure 2: Ethnicity of first time visitors 2021

Figure 3: Age of first visitors 2021

We are seeing a dramatic increase in provision of breastfeeding support to teenage mothers through our collaboration with the Family Nurse Partnership.

‘I feel very privileged to be working with our young service users. They are more difficult to access and don't arrive through our normal channels so we have made this work possible by developing a strong working relationship with the Oxfordshire Family Nurse Partnership. We work flexibly with clients depending on their needs, offering support through WhatApp, home visits, facebook, phone calls, zoom, and at our in-person sessions. Working closely with health professionals and offering flexible support to these more vulnerable clients has meant that we have been able to give them feeding support that they deserve.”

Charlotte Gilman, OBS Facilitator and FNP lead

People came to see us for many reasons: most commonly pain, infant behaviour and antenatal preparation. 11% of people came to us for help with sleep, primarily by attending one of our Zoom groups, which is similar to last year (12%). The number of families with suspected tongue tie was the same as last year (6%).

Financial report

Following on from 2019/2020 when we were focusing on obtaining emergency funding to enable us to redesign our service provision to operate solely online, the 2021/22 financial year saw OBS move back to a more stable financial footing.

Our Lottery grant entered the third year of funding, reducing to £29k (2019/20 £35k) as planned. This income was used primarily to fund Didcot and Barton sessions. The planned expenditure on a new location, Banbury, was reallocated to providing ongoing 1:1 virtual and group support as we transitioned to running a sustainable, hybrid model of support.

In the next financial year the element of our income provided by the Lottery grant will reduce further. We are fortunate to receive a significant level of donor income, but will seek to build other sources of grant funding in order to supplement this. The implementation of an employment structure and further work on equity and diversity will mean that significant levels of expenditure will be incurred in the next financial year, to ensure an appropriate structure for the organisation as it grows in the future.

View the full 2021/22 accounts on our website.

During 2021/22 a deficit of £642 was recorded (2020/21 surplus £9,705) due to a lower level of grant income being received than in the previous year. This is in line with our budgeted expectations for the year, where we aimed to run at a break even position.

Income for the year was £74,429 (2020/21 £88,213).

Included in this figure is £29k of Lottery grant funding and £30k of donation income. This donation income was unrestricted and we were able to use this funding to meet the running costs of our core face to face sessions and to contribute towards the management overheads of running the organisation.

Expenses during the year were £75,071 (prior year £78,506).

In the prior year £15k was spent on COVID response and during 2021/22 this reduced to £5k as the set up costs for virtual sessions had already been incurred. Expenditure during 2021/22 on project management time was higher than in the prior year, as the organisation is investing in the recruitment of new team members and trustees, and in increasing and diversifying the number of and type of sessions provided, from 1:1 virtual support and group Zoom presentations, to work with other service users such as the FNP.

Other running costs which relate to insurance, fees and consumables have remained broadly in line with the prior year.

A reserves policy has been agreed by the Trustees and is reviewed annually to ensure that the appropriate levels of reserves are maintained and OBS is able to continue to fund its activities without unnecessary disruption.

Risk management

A major risk in the next financial year centres on the deterioration of the economic health of the UK and the rise in the cost of living, which could impact OBS’ ability to fundraise. There is a risk that our generous individual donors will be less able to support us, which could lead to a decline in our financial reserves. As our financial turnover grows there is also a risk that we will not be able to maintain the same level of fundraising, and that our management staff will exceed their capacity. To mitigate these risks, we have ambitions to hire a dedicated fundraiser in 2022/2023 to ensure that our increased financial reach is sustainable and to help us achieve even more of our strategic plans.

As our service grows there is a risk that we will have insufficient volunteers to meet service needs. Our volunteer base is predominantly made up of women with young children, who are often also working professionally. As a result, there is a continued risk of burnout and rapid turnover because of the multiple demands our volunteers face in their personal and professional lives. We aim to mitigate this risk by expanding our volunteering programme, and recruiting general volunteers who can support us with the social, logistical and administrative dimensions of running in-person sessions.

The departure of our Project Lead presents new challenges - and in turn, opportunities - to build the capacity of our management team, to develop new, sustainable processes and ways of working, and to maintain a strong and cohesive organisational culture.

Previously identified risks such as safeguarding incidents remain on our radar. Our safeguarding policy is reviewed annually, and all staff and volunteers are trained in safeguarding, and provided with regular supervision and support. As our sessions remain bookable-only for the time, we are also aware that we may be discussing more complex breastfeeding cases, and seeing more babies with medical problems. We need to ensure that we are identifying these and referring them appropriately. We will continue to develop relationships with local Health Visiting teams and GPs in order to link up care in more complex cases.

Looking towards 2022-23

The next financial year will bring changes in our organisational structures as we take on the responsibilities of an employer rather than contracting with self-employed staff. OBS

recognises that case law has been changing with reference to self-employed people, to give more protection to those working in the gig economy. Therefore we need to ensure our team has the employment rights they are entitled to. We will be investing in HR support and running consultations to balance the needs of our team and the financial resources of the charity.

The coming year also brings with it the first open recruitment round for clinical facilitators that OBS has ever run, bringing our commitment to equal opportunities to the fore. With equity in mind we have been integrating various initiatives into our recruitment policy, such as automatic interviews for people with disabilities who fulfil essential criteria and blinded application forms.

In 2022/2023 we will be working towards securing a grant specifically for an Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (E, D & I) officer. This is because we know that E, D & I needs to be the foundation for all that we do. We won’t succeed in making OBS welcoming to all and diverse in its reach unless we invest significant resources into finding out the needs of the whole community and working to deliver, hopefully collaboratively, on those needs.

With all these demands and ambitions, we also need to focus on valuing our team and volunteers, who have always delivered our core services so sensitively and caringly. They have responded to every challenge the last few years has thrown at us, despite stress and hardship, and we wouldn’t be here without them.

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.	No N/a Yes
Recognition of income Offsetting Grants and donations Legacies Government grants Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Contractual income and performance related grants Donated goods Donated services and facilities Support costs Volunteer help These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: the charity becomes entitled to the resources; · it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. · ·

Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Stocks and work in Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable progress value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement Debtors amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents Current asset investments with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.

Note 29 Additional Disclosures

The following are significant matters which are not covered in other notes and need to be included to provide a proper understanding of the accounts. If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.

Reserves policy: OBS will review the level of reserves held, both restricted and unrestricted, at each Trustee meeting. The charity relies on donations from individuals, grants and fundraising to fund the majority of it's charitable activities. The nature of these income streams are that funds are not certain to be received and are not evenly spread throughout the year. As future income from donations is uncertain and would be affected by the wider economic conditions then holding reserves allows the charity time to plan the best way to reduce services or investigate other sources of funding. The charity has been awarded some long term grant funding, most notably £114k over 4 years from the National Lottery. This has meant that the charity feels more confident in holding a reduced level of reserves compared to the prior years and use this money to invest in the sessions that aren't funded by the grants.

The charity operates a mixture of face to face booked breastfeeding groups alongside one to one and group online support. The Trustees believe it is reasonable to hold enough reserves to enable the organisation to change the mix of face to face and online operations at short notice. Also with the charity moving from a self employed contractor organisation to employing staff the Trustees believe that it is prudent to hold enough reserves to provide a buffer for any unexpected employment costs, emergency expenses and potential redundancy costs, as well as to ensure that funds are available in a timely manner to continue to maintain our level and nature of service provision.

The charity is now holding an increasing number of sessions a week, and in order to assist in the planning of future service levels and to enable giving notice to both service users and facilitators of any reductions in service levels because of lack of funds, the Trustees consider in reasonable to hold between 6 and 9 months of expenditure in reserve. Unrestricted reserves at the end of the year were £45k which represents about 7 months of expenditure, along with an additional £10k of deferred grant income which has been earmarked for future activities.
