## **Report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022**
Oxford Wood Recycling is a Company limited by guarantee with an open membership and trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006.
The objectives of the charity and the powers of the Trustees are set out in the Constitution as are the regulations concerning the appointment of new Trustees.
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. 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) (effective 1 January 2019).
Oxford Wood Recycling Ltd was registered with the Charity Commission as a Company limited by guarantee on 2 May 2018.
The charity is governed by trustees. In the year under review there were five. The Trustees normally meet monthly.
## **Strategic Report - Objectives and activities**
The objects of the charity are for the public benefit:
- To relieve unemployment by providing employment, work placements, training and volunteering opportunities for people whose social or economic circumstances mean that they are excluded from work, including but not limited to people recovering from mental or physical illness and people living with a disability.
- To preserve and protect the natural environment: by recycling and re-using waste wood and wood products; and by promoting the use of sustainably produced timber. Sustainably produced timber is wood which comes from forests that are re-planted as they are felled ensuring that today's forests are improved and maintained for future generations.
During the year we invited the OWR community to help us update and define our mission, vision and values in the context of these objects.
Our Mission is _to care for our environment and transform lives._
Our Vision is that _we live and work in a community where there are no barriers to employment and there is zero waste._
Our values provide a guide to how we will work. We value above all, honesty, compassion, equality and diversity. Oxford Wood Recycling will always be a safe and inspiring place to work and to shop, with a good reputation and a warm atmosphere. We are friendly and knowledgeable and will treat you kindly whoever you are.

## **Activities**
The charity operates a waste wood collection service and reclaims wood for re-use, to be used in the manufacture of furniture and other wooden items, and to be sold as DIY materials. Ancillary to the reclaimed material, the charity sells ironmongery, wood finishes and paint. The charity also raises awareness of and sells sustainable local hardwood.
OWR employs and supports individuals who face barriers to working through ill health or disability and operates Wood to Work, an employability service at Oxford Wood Recycling for people seeking paid work who live with a disability or other barrier.
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.
## **Achievement and performance**
## **Strategic Report - Charitable Activities.**
Oxford Wood Recycling (OWR) is a member of the Community Wood Recycling Network comprising 30 social enterprises. Our joint aims are to reduce the amount of wood waste going to landfill, principally by reclaiming as much as possible for reuse, and secondarily, making sure that the residue is passed on for recycling.
In common with most other Community Wood Recycling members, OWR has a further aim to support people with disabilities and other barriers to work.
The National Community Wood Recycling network as a whole reclaimed 9,069 tonnes of wood for re-use from a total of 23,939 tonnes collected, representing around 40% of wood reclaimed from waste. Nothing was sent to landfill.
In 2022 OWR reclaimed 337 tonnes of construction and manufacturing wood waste out of a total of 1369 tonnes collected. OWR generates income and creates employment opportunities from our waste collections service. This activity is aligned with our charitable objects through the reclaiming of wood from waste for reuse, by reducing the pressure on virgin timber production; and by reducing the energy consumed and carbon released by associated processing and transport.
The Woodshop in Abingdon provides a venue and story to promote the reuse of reclaimed timber through sales, information and advice, manufacture of furniture, woodwork courses, and inspirational events.
We secured funding to run woodwork classes for beginners and participants of Wood to Work. There were 25 participants in 2022 and their feedback was universally positive. This is an activity we wish to expand in the future.
We designed and presented an exhibition at OWR highlighting common trees, their history, botany and usage. Entitiled ‘Ten Trees’ it ran for some weeks as part of the Oxfordshire Art Weeks in May. This was a new type of activity for OWR and the pilot has identified opportunities for us to create new impact in the future.

## **Report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022**
Our Wood to Work programme was created in October 2021 and evolved out of the support afforded to both employees and volunteers at OWR who faced barriers to working. The programme professionalised ad hoc working with volunteers and continued in 2022 with partnership support from Oxfordshire County Council (Oxfordshire Employment) and Ways into Work.
Individuals facing barriers to working benefit from being embedded in our workplace whilst receiving personalised support to actively seek employment. Referrals are made from local charities and agencies and participants are typically young people who have not worked before due to a disability or significant neural divergence such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorder or OCD.
Participants spend an average of 12 weeks working in the business part time with the support of a dedicated employment coach, staff and volunteers at OWR. Support takes the form of vocational profiling, activity matching at OWR, job searching and coaching. The majority of participants move directly into mainstream employment and support from an Employment Coach continues in employment for as long as required for that individual.
The programme has seen excellent results in finding sustainable paid work. From an initial cohort of 13, eight participants were and are currently employed in industries such as catering and facilities maintenance.
In May 2022 we were awarded the Muddy Stilettos Award in the Best Sustainable Business category for Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire giving us extra social media and promotional opportunities.
## **Strategic Report - Financial Review**
## **Financial position**
Income for the year was £688,232 with over 90% (£627,820) unrestricted from our trading activities. Although trading activities were impacted by post-pandemic factors, they recovered well through the year.
Charitable grants were £59,220 with most of this from two funders: £32,269 from the CAF Resilience fund and £25,601 from the OCC Business Investment Fund. The Trustees would like to thank these funders and other donors for their contributions. The funding has helped us increase our impact in 2022 and strengthened our resilience for the longer term.
Total expenditure for the year was £845,892 and the Trustees made informed decisions to spend more that incoming resources through the year to ensure continuity of our impact services and invest in the future. Net assets at year-end on 31 December 2022 were £104,983 of which £14,736 were restricted.
## **Investment policy and objectives**
The charity currently holds unused funds above £85,000 in instant-access building society accounts. The charity currently has no other investments. The Trustees will review policy on building a portfolio of ethical investments as reserves increase beyond that required to meet current need.

## **Report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022**
## **Reserves policy**
Through the year Trustees made informed decisions to use reserves to fund our charitable activities through the difficult post-pandemic period. Our reserve policy is to build an unrestricted cash fund so we can handle cashflow challenges. The Trustees aim to maintain unrestricted reserves to cover fixed operating costs for three months, currently £180,000.
## **Strategic Report - Structure, governance and management**
## **Structure**
The charity is controlled by its governing document and is a company limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
## **Governance**
The Trustees are responsible for strategic direction, oversight and compliance. The objectives of the charity and the powers of the Trustees are set out in the Constitution.
New Trustees are selected by the board of Trustees for election by members at an ordinary or extraordinary meeting. There are currently five Trustees. All Trustee candidates must be approved by the membership body. Individuals may be co-opted by the Trustees during the year as volunteer advisors, without recourse to the membership. Trustee may serve for a period of 3 years when they must resign and may stand again for re-election.
## **Management**
Day to day management of the charity is the responsibility of the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Leadership Team of four managers. Each manager is responsible for an operational area and its staffing. Operational areas are divided into Wood waste collections, the retail Woodshop and manufacturing Workshop, Marketing and Communications and Business Administration. The Business Administration Manager is the lead officer for Health and Safety at OWR. Human Resources are managed by the leadership team with support from external consultants. Payroll services are outsourced. During the year the Wood to Work programme was managed by a steering group, that included our partner organisations Oxfordshire Employment and Ways into Work.
Through 2022 we invested in the leadership skills and teamworking approach of our Senior Leadership Team. We also invested in our business administration systems to better manage data and improve order management.
## **Key management remuneration**
Pay scales are set and amended by the trustees at board meetings. The CEO’s pay is set by the remaining trustees.

## **Strategic report - Principle Risks and Uncertainties, Future Plans**
## **Principle Risks and Uncertainties**
We have identified areas where there is long-term risk and are determining the right response to each as we prepare a new business plan for the period 2023-2025. The principal risks are:
1. Economic uncertainty and demand. Economic uncertainty could result in a decline in sales of reclaimed materials and products manufactured from reclaimed wood as the public cuts back on DIY and refurbishment projects. Such a decline threatens the sustainability of the charity and our objectives to promote reuse and to employ and seek employment for individuals facing barriers to working. In mitigation, the Trustees have increased the focus on manufacturing for the public sector, particularly for exterior installations of furniture. Continued growth in this area will support our charitable objectives and maintain the sustainability of the organisation.
2. Business disruption due to another pandemic. OWR adapted to the challenges posed by COVID19 and is better placed to ensure business continuity in future, including moving more sales online and developing home deliveries. A future pandemic would pose a threat to our Wood to Work employability programme and to our overall ability to employ staff if there was no government support. The Trustees intend to build unrestricted reserves in order to provide business continuity.
3. National Community Wood Recycling business model. Increased materials costs, inflated energy costs and the war in Ukraine impact on the construction with implications for availability of wood for reclaim and reuse. In mitigation the Trustees will ensure that sales and marketing is targeted at a range of business customers to maintain a sufficient level of wood waste collections. A potential risk associated with over-reliance on sales through Community Wood Recycling is reducing as we continue to build private client sales.
4. Increased complexity of the trading activities. By their nature, the public works projects we seek demand resources and management time. This adds new complexity to our activities. We have learned much from the success of the projects delivered in 2022. We will take steps to mitigate the implications for staffing and space in the warehouse. Looking further ahead, Trustees will review alternative structure and site options as this income stream continues to grow.
5. Overdependence on individuals. The Chief Executive Officer is a founder member of the company. The Trustees mitigate risk to the charity of overdependence on one individual by ongoing development of the wider leadership team for strategic matters as well as day-to-day cover and management for the charity. The Trustee are actively involved in the work of OWR and workload is shared across the group. The board will seek to strengthen the board further in the next year.

## **Report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2022**
## **Future Plans**
Trustees will continue to focus on ways of achieving more impact across our charitable objects through our direct activities and in wider ways. In 2022 we reviewed and updated our business plan for the next 12 months.
Wood waste collections will continue to grow organically and we will add new customer sites as opportunities arise. We will continue to focus on manufacturing project opportunities for both the public sector and commercial clients. This activity features reclaimed materials and promotes the organisation as a social enterprise, also producing further employment whilst providing significant revenue. We have learned much about the management of this type of project work and these learnings have been incorporated into our business planning.
The Woodshop will continue to diversify activities in order to create more learning opportunities for Wood to Work participants and also to build a local community of interest. We will expand our successful woodwork classes for beginners, making use of the extended mezzanine space.
The Wood to Work employability programme has provided a new opportunity, and new insights for delivery of our charitable object relating to employability. In 2023 we will revisit the delivery model and seek funding for the continuation of the service for three years from November 2023 when current funding will end.

## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of Association of Chartered Certified Accountants which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
- 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Oxford Wood Recycling Ltd**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022**
## 1 **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with:
• the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)',
- Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'
- and with the Charities Act 2011.
The charity is a Company limited by guarantee and constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
## 2 **Accounting Policies**
## **Income**
Income is 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;
- the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
## **Grants and donations**
Grants and donations are included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met.
## **Tax reclaims on donations and gifts**
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.
## **Donated goods, facilities and services**
The charity benefits from significant work carried out by volunteers.
The charity receives the majority of its stock of wood as donations that would otherwise be thrown away, and so has negligible value.
Donated goods are sold by the charity. The sale proceeds included in trading income.
Page 13
## **Oxford Wood Recycling Ltd**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022**
## **Expenditure**
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
## **Governance and support costs**
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £200. They are valued at cost.
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Leasehold property - 25% Straight Line Basis Plant and Machinery - 25% Straight Line Basis Office Equipment - 25% Straight Line Basis
## **Stocks**
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable 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.
## **Taxation**
The charity registered as a charity on 2 May 2018 and since that date has been exempt from corporation tax on its charitable trading activities.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Page 14
## **Oxford Wood Recycling Ltd**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022**
## **Debtors**
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement 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.
## **Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **Liability recognition**
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts
## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits**
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
