Public benefit

When planning their charity's activities, the charity trustees have regarded the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit

We are a volunteer run, not for profit organisation providing support and relief of hardship to those at risk of, or currently facing, homelessness or isolation. This includes the provision of emergency food parcels and weekly roast events in addition to dental and podiatry services.

Summary of the main achievements during the period

We are extremely grateful to our volunteers for the many hours they have spent supporting, feeding and clothing the Salisbury homeless. Without this valuable contribution of time, energy and expertise we would not have been able to achieve the following:

FINANCIAL REVIEW

ENCIRCLES is in a strong financial position, solely due to our very generous donors and our team of volunteers. The charity had a positive result for the year with receipts exceeding payments by £1,181, and our cash reserves of £21,443 cover over 16 months of expenses. Consequently, we are confident that we the necessary financial resources to meet our Mission to Feed the Homeless and Hungry in the Salisbury area.

Reserves Policy

Funds are held to cover at least 3 months operational costs in the event of a loss of income and to meet any unforeseen expenditure that may occur. The main risk to the charity is reduced donations.
