Wellsprings Together

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020

Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees

There shall be a maximum of nine trustees, up to five being nominated by the Church Urban Fund ("the CUF Trustees" ) and four nominated by the DBF ("the DBF Trustees" ).

Each trustee shall serve a term of five years and may be re-appointed to serve a second term of five years.

New trustees undergo orientation to brief them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the contents of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision making process, the business plan and the recent financial performance of the Charity. Trustees are introduced to all staff members and other trustees. Trustees are encouraged to attend external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role.

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

The charity's objects are for the benefit of the public by:

The relief of need in the community with a view to promoting social inclusion for those excluded or marginalised from society because of social or economic disadvantage;

The promotion of social cohesion for the benefit of the public in particular by:

educating the public in Christian and other religious beliefs including an awareness of their distinctive features and their common ground to promote good relations between persons of different faiths;

promoting the knowledge and mutual understanding and respect of the beliefs and practices of different religious faiths;

The promotion of equality and diversity for the public benefit in particular by: promoting activities to foster understanding between people from diverse backgrounds; building relations between people from different backgrounds and cultures; advancing education and raising awareness in equality and diversity;

To enable churches, Christian organisations, individuals and community groups to influence and shape local and national, social and economic policy through informed individual and collective advocacy;

To promote the efficiency and effectiveness of Christian charities and charities with similarly based values in the furtherance of their objects or any one of them, mainly but not exclusively by the provision of information, advice, support and infrastructure provision; and

The furtherance of such other purposes as are exclusively charitable under the laws of England and Wales as the trustees shall from time to time determine. These objects shall be primarily but not exclusively undertaken within the Diocese of Leeds or such other geographical area as the trustees shall from time to time determine.

The charity's main activities

Wellsprings Together works with partners to address deprivation, isolation and division within our communities. The charity acts as a catalyst and connector for extending the reach, depth and quality of social action through dynamic partnerships with churches, civic authorities, faith groups and others who share our mission and values.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

The charity furthers its charitable purpose for the public benefit through equipping, motivating and supporting faith communities as they build community cohesion and tackle social inequality and injustice.

Wellsprings Together is a joint venture between the Church Urban Fund and the Anglican Diocese of Leeds helped to make possible by three years of core funding from Allchurches Trust of which 2020 was year three. The Allchurches Trust funding for years two and three was received via the Church Urban Fund.

Wellsprings Together

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020

Public benefit statement continued

We want to see a movement of faith inspired social action which will enable people and communities to flourish. Building on the successes of the last decade we will be a catalyst and connector for extending the reach, depth and quality of social action through dynamic partnerships with the parishes, civic authorities, faith groups and others who share our mission and values.

Dignity: We acknowledge the inherent, indisputable value of each person, seeing each member of our communities as an individual gift, irrespective of wealth, ethnicity, culture, faith or gender. Where injustice or marginalisation threaten we seek change for the good of the whole community.

Generosity: Recognising what each of us has been given, we are motivated to act by love. We seek to mutually create opportunities for the assets in each of our communities to be used as gifts for the common good.

Relationships: We encourage the bravery of listening first, particularly across difference, as we look to overcome the obstacles to connection and belonging. We seek to be a movement of shared investment, working in partnerships with others to find creative ways to live together well.

Flourishing: Our great hope is for individuals and communities to flourish as all they can be. We seek to inspire and enable pathways towards freedom, agency and justice, now and for the future.

Achievements and performance

Work with our parishes

An important goal in 2020 was to strengthen links with local churches and partnership work with the Anglican Diocese of Leeds. In November 2020, a motion was debated at Diocesan synod which affirms the place of Wellsprings Together as helping to deliver the diocesan aim of transforming communities. We secured the support of the synod and the episcopal area leadership teams to develop and enable community engagement in the parishes. In line with our vision, we wanted to see an increase in the number of churches and other faith groups responding to the needs of people in their communities, particularly in our three main stands of work – food provision, relief of social isolation and community building.

Throughout 2020 we saw a steady increase of engagement by parishes. For example:

“ Wellsprings Together (has been) extremely helpful in developing St Aidan’s food share scheme which now provides more than 300 food distributions every Saturday”. Deanery synod member

“Wellsprings Together’s work (is) very important across the diocese and details of what it offers should be more widely explained”. Parish Priest

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020

Work with food providers

In 2020 long-standing partner relationships enabled an effective response to the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly through the “Feeding Bradford” network, which has now expanded to be the “Feeding Bradford and Keighley” network. Wellsprings Together worked with local food banks and the council to ensure responses were effective in meeting the needs of local people, and to produce a shared set of commitments for all providers and improve best practice across the region.

We estimate that the Healthy Holidays programme provided volunteering opportunities for many, many people. Healthy Holiday activities also reached approximately 6,300 children and 3,400 adults. These were many of the most vulnerable families in Bradford District with a high proportion of the children accessing ‘Free School Meals’. This was a significant step change in the reach of Wellsprings Together, with many of the projects commenting that they were able to support families they had previously not engaged.

Work with Near Neighbours

In 2020 Wellsprings Together delivered the Near Neighbours Programme in West Yorkshire, bringing people together in communities that are religiously and ethnically diverse. Through facilitating the Near Neighbours small grants programme we worked in partnership with local churches to ensure locally led engagement.

In January 2020, Wellsprings Together took a leading role in the arrangements for HRHs William and Kate’s visit to Bradford, helping to identify and organise groups and individuals for them to meet.

From March 2020 Wellsprings Together launched a response to the Covid-19 pandemic with local and national partners. This included:

Work to combat social isolation.

Places of Welcome is a growing network of local community groups providing their neighbourhoods with places where all people feel safe to connect, belong and contribute. With increasing concerns about social isolation exacerbated by the pandemic, Wellsprings Together adapted its approach to Places of Welcome and looked for new partnerships.

Work among the Homeless

Positive Pathways is a five year programme in the Bradford area, which is helping to support homeless people into stable and sustained accommodation and community life.

In 2020 Positive Pathways continued to deliver good outcomes through our delivery partners Inn Churches and Hope Housing. We completed the initial phase of the Garden Homes Project, exploring concepts of “home” and the role of church and community in the provision of housing.

Plans for the future

In the last quarter of the year, Wellsprings Together initiated a review of our strategic direction. Learning from the experience of more than two years of operation of Wellsprings Together joint venture, and as the Church Urban Fund reconfigures its relationships with its joint ventures, the review has set the terms of reference for the next phase in the development of Wellsprings Together.

Two key issues that the Trustees have considered thoroughly in this review have been the impact of the Covid pandemic on our work, and the continuing challenges of reaching more parts of the vast and diverse geographic area covered by the Diocese of Leeds which is within our remit. It remains unclear how Covidrelated disruption will evolve in local neighbourhoods, but we do anticipate the continuance and even growth of high levels of need in many parts of the areas that we serve and the fragility of many local faith communities as they struggle to address these needs.

In this next phase of development, we will concentrate the focus of our work, shifting our emphasis away from taking responsibility for larger project work and towards supporting and enabling faith communities. This involves ‘walking with’ a parish in a consultancy role, helping to clarify with them what they want to do within their community, helping them to set up new or develop existing work, and to find funding and other partners. It would not, however, involve agreeing to take on responsibility for or delivery of work.

This shift of emphasis brings with it risks as well as opportunities, especially in the area of fund-raising from grants. Shifting our focus onto this parish-based model has required reorganisation, which started after the end of the reporting period. As Trustees, we have discussed how best to invest our surplus reserves in the development and future sustainability of our work. We will utilise some of our reserves in future years on this development in our work with parishes and other faith groups in their communities (see ‘Reserves’ section).

Wellsprings Together

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020

Financial review

The net income for the year was £22,758, including net income of £49,498 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £26,740 on restricted funds, after transfers.

Reserves policy

The Trustees have adopted a policy to retain sufficient funds to enable the smooth running of the charity and to enable an orderly winding up should that become necessary. The policy is reviewed regularly. The level of reserves to be retained is 6 months of future budgeted core costs. The Trustees estimate this to be approximately £40,000 for 2021.

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £244,977.

The Trustees recognise that the actual free reserves are significantly in excess of this policy. In 2020 the three years of unrestricted funding from Allchurches Trust came to an end, and unrestricted funding from the Church Urban Fund significantly and permanently reduced. We anticipate, therefore, that our surplus reserves will need to provide some financial ‘breathing-space’ for Wellsprings Together as we re-focus our strategic direction and seek alternative sources of major core funding. The surplus reserves will also be used to invest in the development and future sustainability of Wellsprings Together over the current 5 year business plan (20202024), through employment of development workers and the costs of pilot projects.

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2020

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Notes to the accounts

for the year ended 31 December 2020

1 Accounting policies

Basis of accounting

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 financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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) and with the Charities Act 2011.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. There has been no change to the accounting policies since last year. No changes have been made to the accounts for previous years.

Going concern

The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources 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.

Grants and donations

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.

Donated goods for resale are valued at the amount actually realised upon their sale.

Donated assets, facilities or services are valued at their estimated value to the charity. This is the price that the charity estimates it would pay in the open market for equivalent items; or services and facilities of equivalent utility to the charity.

Expenditure and liabilities

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

Grants payable with performance conditions

Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.

Grants payable without performance conditions

Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised.

Taxation

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: Project and office equipment: over 3 years

Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.

Purpose of the grant making activities

Positive Pathways is a project focussed on delivering relational support for homeless people in Bradford. Grants were made to Inn Churches and Hope Housing to provide that support.

As an extension of Positive Pathways, Garden Homes was a pilot project to scope the feasibility of providing self-build garden homes led by the local communities. The grant was made to an individual, Angus McNab, who delivered the project.
