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). Page 1 ## **HOPE INTO ACTION PORTSMOUTH** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Review of Objectives and activities** The principal object of the charity is to provide supported housing in the Portsmouth region to those who are homeless or insecurely housed. The charity aims to use investment resources to buy houses for 2-3 tenants. Each home is linked to a local church that provides a positive community, friendship, befriending/mentoring and support. Also included is a professional Empowerment Worker who provides expertise to the tenants in benefits, tenancies, jobs, liaising with other agencies and action plans. Each house is opened with the support of a local church and they form a Friendship and Support group to support the tenants. This holistic approach first seeks to address the immediate challenges facing the individual. Seeking to identify the reasons for homelessness and the underlying causes of their poverty. Then addressing the complexities that have kept them from progressing in life and achieving their goals. The biggest impact comes through building a positive framework of relationship through the support worker and the friendship and support group (FSG). This provides a safe environment for them to share and grow in confidence in a non-judgmental therapeutic dynamic. We try and build on the positive and seek to empower them to develop their strengths. Over time this builds self-worth and confidence. With new skills and qualifications, they develop new relationships reducing their isolation and work towards independent living. There is a wider impact on the other services providing supported accommodation in the local area. As we seek to move people on from hostels and other local services to independent living, this frees up additional bed spaces along the pathway out of homelessness for people to progress through the system. There is also a wider benefit to the local community as we are assisting people to break their cycle of disadvantage so that they can get back to a position of contributing positively to society. Most of the individuals we work alongside progress on to their own independent living and become capable of supporting themselves rather than relying on the charity of others and the benefit system. Many find work and become assets within their local community participating towards the development of their local communities. In making decisions relative to the running of the charity, the trustees have had due regard in all instances to the commission's public benefit guidance when exercising their powers or duties. Given that the objects of the charity are the relief of poverty specific rules apply in relation to the "public" aspect of the "public benefit". Despite this the trustees are nonetheless satisfied that there is a public aspect to the benefit as has been shown above with regards to the impact of the work of the charity on other organisations providing supported accommodation and the wider community. There is an additional aspect to the benefit that is worth mentioning. It is our experience as a charitable organisation, the volunteers from our friendship and support groups also benefit from being involved in the activities that we provide as well as the churches who we are partnered with. There is an opportunity for the churches to demonstrate in a public way that they are relevant and involved in their local communities and making a real difference to people's lives. Each house is run in conjunction with a local church who sign a five-year partnership with us committing to build long-term, holistic relationships with the tenants who were formerly homeless. Volunteers contribute a few hours a week and they tell us that they feel that they learn as much from volunteering alongside these individuals as the clients themselves. This is assisted by the fact that they themselves are provided with ongoing support and training throughout their time volunteering. An initial full day's training is complemented by ongoing training and support from staff who work for the charity in various capacities. In so many regards this model is as much about a way of building community as it is about housing individuals. Tenants are empowered by volunteers, who are supported by Empowerment Workers. Working together we are seeking to build a sense of friendship, family and support that transcends racial, social, cultural, political and religious divides for the purpose of building a better community. And in the process, individuals who are struggling with the challenges of poverty, identity, relationship and resource are seeing their problems reduced and therefore begin to regain their independence. Page 2 ## **HOPE INTO ACTION PORTSMOUTH** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Public benefit** The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. The trustees refer to public benefit throughout this report. ## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** ## **Achievements and performance** The Trustee team was stable through most of this year until Sam Cullen resigned in February 2025. We were short of a third Trustee for the remainder of this financial year (she was then replaced by Edward Caush in May 2025). Changes to the staff team in this year included a new Finance & Maintenance Administrator, Claire Loveridge, starting in August 2024 after Lynn Boakes left in June, and two new part-time Empowerment Workers, Elizabeth Caush and Emma Hawkins starting in May and June 2024, after full-time Empowerment Worker, Katherine Lawes left in April. Refurbishment was completed on house number 11 in Emsworth and the house opened to tenants in August 2024. This brings our total housing investment value to just over £3 million. Additional work was required in many properties to install new smoke detectors to meet HMO regulations after the size of houses covered by HMO was reduced, so covering more of our houses. Throughout the year, our occupancy rate has been very high, with a lowest value of 86%, so only a few beds vacant at any one time. One tenant had to be moved from the Portsmouth City Council area to our one house in another council area (Chichester), which has caused some disagreement on who is responsible for financially supporting this tenant - we are covering this cost until it is resolved between the two councils. Four staff and three Friendship & Support Group volunteers attended the national HiA conference in March 2025, where one of our tenants won an award (although they weren't able to attend). ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Financial review** The Trustees' policy with regard to reserves is to seek to maintain unrestricted funds, other than those designated from time to time for specific purposes, at a level sufficient to provide the charity with enough working capital to carry on its existing activities successfully for two to four months. This will enable the trustees to ensure continuity of activities and honour contractual liabilities. As the Charity grows, it was agreed that we would calculate the reserves with a 90% occupancy rate. The net income up to March 2025, was £289,547. £227,851 was received from Housing Allowance and represents 79% of our income. In March 2025, the team consists of the Franchise Lead, a Finance and Maintenance Administrator and 4 Empowerment Workers. At the end of March 2025 we are housing 27 tenants, including 4 children under 18. We have 4 vacancies. Our costs ("charitable activities") were at £323,634. Our bank balance at the end of March was £47,421.98. All insurances are in place. ## **Reserves policy** The Trustees' policy with regard to reserves is to seek to maintain unrestricted funds, other than those designated from time to time for specific purposes, at a level sufficient to provide the charity with enough working capital to carry on its existing activities successfully for two to four months. This will enable the trustees to ensure continuity of activities and honour contractual liabilities. Page 3 ## **HOPE INTO ACTION PORTSMOUTH** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Governing document** Hope Into Action Portsmouth is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation and governed by its articles and memorandum of association and we are a franchise of Hope Into Action UK, which provides us with training, support, advice and expertise. We have adopted their policies, with minor adaptations as needed. Representatives of Hope Into Action UK carry out regular audits of our houses and meet with our tenants, to ensure that standards are maintained and risks are managed appropriately, with the wellbeing of our tenants being paramount. As well as having a board of Directors, Hope Into Action Portsmouth also has Ambassadors who support and encourage the Charitable aims, and attend all Trustee Meetings. Ambassadors are appointed by the Board of Trustees and bring a particular specialism and skill set that the Trustees value. Trustees consult fully with the Ambassadors and make them fully aware of operational and governance plans. Whilst there is a requirement to maintain the core elements of the Hope into Action model as part of being a franchisee, Hope into Action Portsmouth is free as an independent organisation to adapt the model to local circumstances and requirements. The trustees take this responsibility seriously and are keen to ensure that the charity implements the model faithfully since it has been demonstrated that it works but also to make sure that there is also an aspect of local expression and development. In relation to risk and risk management, policies and procedures are in place to manage risk as best as can be foreseeable. Logs are maintained in order to record any incidents that may present a risk to the organisation and how risk is being managed: - ~ Safeguarding - ~ Critical Incidents and Sudden Death ~ First Aid incidents - ~ Data Protection Breaches - ~ Staff Training and HR In the event of major incidents, the Franchise Lead liaises with the Chair of Trustees who keeps the board informed of ongoing developments. Discussions take place to learn from the experience and to do things differently where required. Written reports are made of all major incidents, subsequent discussions, policy changes as a result and amended practices. ## **Outcomes** The charity has maintained outcomes that reflect the excellent standard of the work carried out. We deliberately do not set KPI's or aim for specific outcomes as we are convinced that the outcomes reflect the fact that we invest in building great relationships first and foremost. For 2024-2025 we have achieved the following outcomes: - ~ Maintaining Tenancy - 89% - ~ Involvement in Employment or Training - 63% - ~ Improved Mental Health - 50% - ~ Reduced Alcohol or Substance Misuse - 79% ## **Quality Audit Report** Hope Into Action Portsmouth continues to work with the HiA UK Peterborough office welcoming the Annual Quality Audit Report that provides encouragement and points for improvement. It is discussed and monitored with our Franchise Lead and Trustees. We were given feedback that our quality was of a high standard. ## **Independent examiner** In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing that Morris Crocker be appointed as independent examiner of the charity will be put at a General Meeting. The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees on 28th October 2025 and it was agreed that the Chair of Trustees would file them with the Charity Commission.

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under charity law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and The Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. 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.

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the 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 member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 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.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES** ## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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 the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. ## **Going Concern** The trustees are of the opinion that the Charity can continue to meet its obligations for at least twelve months after the signing of the accounts and that the Charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Annual Report and financial statements. ## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** The trustees' have assessed the financial statements and confirm that no critical accounting judgements or key sources of estimation uncertainty have been identified that would materially affect the reported amounts. ## **Income** All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. ## **Expenditure** Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 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. ## **Tangible fixed assets** Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost Computer equipment - 33% on cost Individual fixed assets costing £250 or more are capitalised at cost. ## **Taxation** The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable 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. ## **Financial instruments** The charity only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties and loans to related parties and investments in complicated investment products.

In the balance sheet, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. ## **Trade and other creditors** Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price.
