REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
SUMMARY FOR THE YEAR
Refugees at Home had a mixed year with operations continuing to be affected by the restrictions caused by the coronavirus pandemic. We are proud that the charity, nonetheless, maintained its remit to facilitate accommodation for refugees and asylum seekers and continued to support hosts with guests. The number of referrals and placements were lower than pre-pandemic, but higher than in 2020.
By the end of December 2021, we had hosted for over 193,000 individual person nights, which equates to over 530 years of hosting since we started in October 2015. We have hosted over 2,500 guests who have come from over 70 countries including Ukraine, Afghanistan, Syria, Eritrea and Sudan. Placements can be anything from one night to over a year. In 2021, we made 282 placements and hosted guests for a total of 12,298 individual person nights.
The year was punctuated by Covid waves and changes in rules. In August 2021, when the Taliban took over Afghanistan, we received a heart-warming surge in host applications as people offered to open their homes to people fleeing the country. Unfortunately, our ability to place Afghan guests with hosts was hampered by the Home Office, as most Afghans were housed in hotels and could not leave there, for fear of losing their housing and financial support from the Home Office.
The situation is changing again dramatically as we move into 2022 with the war in Ukraine, but that will be detailed in our 2022 annual report.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The formal Objects of Refugees at Home are the prevention or relief of poverty of refugees, those seeking asylum and their dependants in the United Kingdom, for the public benefit, in particular but not exclusively by:
-
facilitating the provision of accommodation by members of the public;
-
the provision of financial assistance; and
-
the provision of practical assistance.
Our Mission Statement is:
Connecting refugees and asylum seekers in need with welcoming hosts.
This is paired with our Vision:
A society where every refugee and asylum seeker facing homelessness has a safe place to stay and a chance to rebuild their life.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Significant activities
The refugee and asylum system in the UK is unacceptably tough for those most in need of help and support. The statistics are stark:
-
At the end of 2021 over 100,000 people were awaiting an initial decision on their asylum application. More than half of all asylum claims currently submitted are now taking longer than one year for an initial decision (although they are meant to be heard within six months).
-
People seeking asylum are banned from working and may live on Home Office support equivalent to £5.66 per day. Before this support is granted, or if it is refused, asylum seekers can be wholly destitute.
-
This support stops just 28 days after someone is granted refugee status. Faced with a cliff edge and no support to find new housing, open a bank account, and secure income, among other activities needed before being evicted, many new refugees are at significant risk of homelessness and destitution.
We don't think people who come to the UK for sanctuary should end up on the streets. Our vision is for every refugee and asylum seeker in the UK to have a safe place to stay by connecting them to people with spare rooms. We recruit and support volunteer hosts to provide a secure and welcoming home.
In 2021 we calculated that the accommodation we provided only cost, on average, just £16.45 per hosted night and our guests not only get a better night's sleep, but they can practise their English, learn about British society and family life, and share their culture with a welcoming host family. Many guests and hosts become lifelong friends.
Potential guests are referred from several sources, and we work with the referrers to check the suitability of guests for hosting. We expect referrers and caseworkers to have a clear plan and give ongoing support for taking the next step, eg gaining refugee status, applications to NASS (National Asylum Support Service) and move-on. There is no formal upper time-limit for the duration of hosting, although we try and ensure move-on within a year.
We do not give advice about immigration issues and all referrals of guests who do not have refugee status must be made by a case worker before we accept them for hosting.
All our hosts have a home assessment by a person with professional experience which means that they are able to assess people in their homes, or virtually, for example, social workers, health visitors, district nurses, mental health practitioners or doctors, usually General Practitioners. Hosts commit to provide a bed, access to the kitchen and bathroom and a welcoming smile. Many give additional support, such as providing food and help with how to secure a bank account, sign on for work or register with a GP.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
At the beginning of 2021, the Board set the strategy for the year to include an aim to get hosting numbers back up to 2019 levels, despite the ongoing pandemic, to update and enhance information to support and recruit hosts, and to consider the most effective ways for the Board to work.
We began the year slowly, as the Covid pandemic continued but the vaccine rollout began, which gave hosts more confidence to open up their homes again. We used the time to improve our administrative and organisational capacity, rewriting various toolkits for hosts, home visitors and guests. We also spent time talking to our existing and potential referrers, building those relationships for the future, including targeted referrers such as those supporting LBGTQ+ refugees and asylum seekers.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
This consolidation stood us in good stead when the Taliban took over Afghanistan and we received a very welcome and generous stream of host applications. We worked to balance hosting people as soon as possible with our careful assessment about knowing who we are housing where, and whether the host and guest are both suitable.
Most of those evacuated from Afghanistan have been housed by the Home Office in hotels. We have endeavoured to offer hosting where such accommodation was clearly not adequate, while balancing this with the need to preserve people's status with the Home Office and not lose their entitlement to ongoing and future support. These negotiations have led us to have more dialogue with the Home Office and with other non-governmental organisations in the sector, which has given us a stronger voice and means we can operate more effectively.
For much of 2021, we were ready to support refugees and asylum seekers when they were evicted from the hotel accommodation introduced as part of the government's 'Everyone In' scheme, responding to the pandemic. This timeline was never clear and we have not yet seen a huge change, but there is a steady trickle of people needing our support.
In 2021, 282 placements were made and guests were hosted for 12,298 individual nights. About a third of the hosted nights were in London but the rest were spread around the nations and regions. The majority of our guests were from Afghanistan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Sudan.
We have developed a strong working relationship with Together With Migrant Children who assist us with complex cases involving children, young people and families, offer casework to children, young people and families, where the provision of specialist casework is necessary, and who offer a referral pathway. This working partnership has enabled Refugees at Home to provide hosting in situations which previously would have been impossible due to the limitations of the referrer. By referring to TWMC as standard when a referral of a young person or family is received, we have created a pathway where we can host with confidence, guests can access specialist support and other referrers can learn from the expertise of TWMC.
We have also developed a positive relationship with the local authority in Liverpool which is proactively developing their welcome to asylum seekers and refugees in the city and surrounding areas. They supported Refugees at Home in facilitating an event with interested hosts in the area and with local charity partners. We have also continued to liaise over the use of hotels for Afghan refugees in Liverpool.
We have been developing a relationship with Refugee Action. Following our work with them in connection with the Home Office conversations about those who have escaped Afghanistan, they have been able to refer families to us who they were supporting in leaving Syria. The Home Office were refusing to provide accommodation for these people, so we found placements for four large families (this was not required in the end as the Home Office relented). Following this work, our relationship with Refugee Action has been strengthened and we continue to work with them on Ukraine in 2022.
Excluding the investment in our new IT system our overheads remained in 2021 at about 5% of expenditure.
Public benefit
In planning the activities of the charity, the Trustees refer to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission with regard to public benefit. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives of the charity. The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Fundraising activities
Our fundraising in 2021 was very successful and we secured a number of substantial grants to offer stability to the employment of our placement staff, to pay for our ongoing employment of an IT analyst and to fund a new administrative role to support them. All these roles are vital both in the work we do with guests and hosts and in the background support which underpins those tasks.
We held a third Founders' Circle dinner where speeches were given (remotely) by Benedict Cumberbatch and (in person) by refugee Hassan Akkad, whose book Hope Not Fear was published last year. We also maintain a small fundraising shop via our website where supporters can buy badges, tea towels and canvas bags.
We are very grateful to all our donors, from the smallest amount from a cake sale or fun run to the Founders' Circle donors and grant-givers who continue to recognise and support our work.
Marketing and communications
After a slow pandemic-hit start to the year, the crisis in Afghanistan led to a lot of requests for articles and interviews. We managed appearances and discussions in a wide range of publications across a broad geographical area, and were grateful for the support of our staff, volunteers, hosts and former guests who took on this work.
Our engagement on social media rose dramatically across the year:
| Social Medial Platform | Followers January 2021 | Followers January 2022 |
|---|---|---|
| 4,873 | 7,665 | |
| 14,990 | 17,267 | |
| 12,748 | 15,546 |
IT project
In 2020, the Board initiated a strategic review, led by our IT trustee, Oliver Bethell, of the organisation's IT systems. The recommendation was to replace the existing systems, which have been in place since 2015 with progressive improvements, with an "enterprise grade" solution that would enable Refugees at Home to scale safely and effectively, without solely hiring more resource to do so.
Following a review of several offers to support this work, we decided to work with Garth Vladischalvich, Director of Evolve Technologies Ltd (Evolve), who generously agreed to deliver phase 1 as a pro bono exercise. Requirements for a new system were captured through a series of workshops with the Refugees at Home team, led by Garth.
The output was reviewed by Garth, alongside Refugees at Home's IT and data trustees, and in 2021 they proposed a solution to include a central database, interfaces and workflows for the core team to carry out day-to-day tasks as efficiently as possible, and portals for trustees, home visitors and hosts to see the information they require in their roles with the charity. We have engaged Evolve to build the new central management system and import data into it, alongside training and support for the team. The trustees reviewed the costs of this work, which are at charitable rates, and recognise that this investment will support the growth and increased efficiency of our charity.
Host-raising project
Spring 2021 saw the culmination of a project by our host-raising trustee, Anne Race, who sought insights from staff, volunteers and hosts (past, present and future) to understand their motivations in hosting and what might prevent them hosting or returning to hosting. This work was enlightening and very useful and fed into some of our planning. However, the need to recruit hosts was altered by the crisis in Afghanistan (as well, in 2022, as the war in Ukraine) so this work has been put on hold for now.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The continuing rapid evolution of the charity is reflected in our financial position. Last year we carried forward £448,930 which has increased to £538,178 at the end of 2021. This is testament to our growing support and the work of our fundraising team.
We continue to have strong support from individuals via Just Giving, My Donate, Facebook and standing orders paid directly into our bank account.
Our target of nine months' operating costs to be held in reserve has been comfortably met - with just over two year's projected costs currently held in bank accounts.
The only creditors we have are for 2021 payroll costs and year end accountancy fees.
The debtors relate to Gift Aid which is due from HMRC, prepayment of software licences and a pending donation of a speaker fee.
We are well placed to continue our work, placing and supporting refugees and asylum seekers, as well as investing in our IT systems and our staff who do such essential work.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
Refugees at Home is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity. It operates according to its Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in December 2018.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The Board requires a minimum of three Trustees/Directors. As of the end of December 2021, there were 11 people on the Board. The Board has extensive expertise on running charities, refugees and asylum seekers, fundraising and finance, media and communications, law, data protection, safeguarding, data and IT. As well as the Chair, Company Secretary and Treasurer, each trustee has a specific role and leads or contributes to a sub-committee. In 2021 our fundraising trustee resigned and we recruited a new one, and we appointed a new trustee responsible for data. We were sorry to lose Julia Barbosa who had given tremendous impetus to our fundraising but are delighted to welcome Becki Young to the fundraising trustee role, and Magid El-Amin as data trustee.
We recruit trustees using a formal advertising and interview process. A comprehensive induction is given including a meeting with the Chair and Executive Director. We are mindful of the need to diversify the make up of our board and we are working on this. We have agreed 'back-up' roles for key Board members in case of emergency, most notably in case the Treasurer is incapacitated.
Organisational structure
As at the end of 2021 we were employing seven paid members of staff. The Executive Director line-manages the team and she herself reports to the Chair. She is supported by the Operations sub-committee of four trustees and provides an operational report at every Board meeting. In 2021, the team included a Senior Placement Coordinator, two Placement Coordinators, a Host Coordinator and an IT Analyst. We undertook a salary review in 2021 to ensure that our salaries remain fair and competitive within the market and recognise how much we value our staff.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Our paid staff are ably supported by a team of ten volunteers who cover administrative and fundraising roles, as well as IT support and development and a mental health adviser to support the team. These roles are in addition to our volunteer hosts and home visitors who are the core of our work.
Special thanks are extended to Travers Smith for their pro bono legal advice on the broad range of issues that arise in running the charity and for their generous support of our charity.
Refugees at Home is very grateful to everyone who gives them time and energy, whether as a volunteer or a paid member of staff, to this important cause. We are proud and fortunate to have such a passionate and able team.
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. These duties are met by a regular review of our risk assessment procedures, by constant monitoring and action taken where appropriate, and by Independent Examination of our annual report and accounts. Disaster recovery plans against each risk are regularly updated.
