REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
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 March 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
To provide Voice and Leadership To support the development of resilient VCSE organisations To create opportunities for growth of the VCSE sector To promote volunteering
Public benefit
We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and complied with section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities act when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Voice and Leadership:
In the year NEL VCSE Alliance facilitated monthly meetings of the NEL VCSE Forum. The Forum is well attended by representatives of VCSE organisations: statutory sector partners attend as non-voting partners to promote information sharing; the development of trusted relationships; and to create opportunities for the co-production of solutions to local issues.
Members of the NEL VCSE Alliance hold representative positions on a number of strategic multi-agency Boards and attended regular meetings of these Boards throughout the year on a voluntary basis: representatives provide feedback to the VCSE Forum. This work is delivered by the Directors of the Alliance, all of whom are employed and remunerated by their respective organisations and this Alliance-related work is provided 'in kind' for the wider benefit and vitality of the VCSE sector.
Support the Development and Resilience of the Sector:
The Alliance continue to contribute to the delivery of the Sector Support North East Lincs partnership led by North Bank Forum to provide support to the VCSE sector under contract with NELC and Health partners (formerly the CCG). NBF are the contract holder and accountable body.
Create opportunities for growth of the VCSE sector:
NEL VCSE Alliance acted as accountable body for the Together for East Marsh Partnership Place Based Social Action Project, funded by DCMS and The National Lottery. The project facilitated the delivery of social action projects in the East Marsh Council ward of Grimsby and ended in September 2021.
The Alliance performs a role in the leadership and coordination of funding opportunities to VCS groups: this year Alliance will manage a Home Office grant programme, 'Safer Streets for East Marsh' , on behalf of NELC to enable effective and fair distribution of funds to small VCS organisations.
The Alliance has through its representation and lobbying activity created strong relationships with commissioners contributing to senior level discussions with the Local Authority around commissioning and will be involved in developing mechanisms to streamline commissioning and making it work for the VCSE sector.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
At the year ending 31st March 2022, NEL VCSE Alliance is considered to be a viable organisation by its Trustees with sufficient cash reserves to satisfy its obligations and to continue with core activities and future plans.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The Board considers that it is prudent to ensure sufficient reserves to mitigate against risks and in particular, the impact of a significant loss of income. In such an event, the Board would aim to complete the necessary restructuring of its business within a 3-month timeframe to reduce the risk of impairment to the Charity.
The Charity's reserves policy is reviewed at regular intervals by the Board to ensure that it remains fit for purpose and that the level of returns retained provide some assurance in uncertain times. As a small organisation with limited funds, the Charity regards the reserves as the amount required to fulfil any obligations arising from the employment of staff, hire agreements, leases, and other contracts.
FUTURE PLANS
In 2022-23, Alliance Trustees will prioritise the recruitment of directors; the development of funding opportunities; support for the development of a VCSE Assembly; increasing the visibility, marketing and amplifying the voice of the sector.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee having no share capital. The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
The Governing Document requires members to elect Trustees at the Annual General Meeting. In addition the Board of Trustees may appoint a Trustee to fill a vacancy or increase their number between AGMs: Trustees so appointed must offer themselves for election by the members at the AGM following their appointment. One-third of the Trustees, or the number nearest to one third, retire by rotation annually but are eligible for re-election. All members are given at least 14 clear days notice of an AGM and are invited to nominate members for election to the Board, prior to the AGM. In order to safeguard the interests and reputation of the organisation, prospective new Trustees must meet the following requirements; they must: o Be proposed by a registered member and seconded by a serving member of the current Board of Trustees o Complete an application form detailing skills and relevant experience o Agree to abide by the Trustee Code of Conduct
Organisational structure
The Board of Trustees of NEL VCSE Alliance meets on a monthly basis and is responsible for setting the strategic direction and policy of the Charity and ensuring that the Charity works towards achieving its charitable aims within a legal framework.
The Board currently has five members from a variety of professional backgrounds and having a wide range of skills relevant to the undertaking of their role.
The Trustees are responsible for ensuring that the Charity complies with legislation and that it uses its assets to deliver services in line with its charitable aims.
Decision making
Decisions are made by Trustees voting in person or by electronic means; one vote per Trustee. Trustees aim to build consensus in decision making, if consensus cannot be reached matters are decided by vote and carried on a simple majority.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Induction and training of new trustees
Prospective Trustees are invited to attend a Trustee meeting prior to appointment or election. New Trustees are required to sign a Trustee agreement detailing Trustee rights, responsibilities and expected conduct.
Trustees are provided with induction materials including the following:
o The roles and responsibilities of Charity Trustees
o The duties and liabilities of directors & secretary of limited companies
o Job descriptions for Trustee, chair, secretary and treasurer
o A copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association
o Mission, Objects and service aims o Details of the services provided by Grimsby & Cleethorpes Area Doorstep o Trustee contact details o Latest Annual Report including audited accounts o Previous Board meeting minutes
Trustees are also encouraged to access relevant external training and participate in internal workshops and training events.
Key management remuneration
The Trustees of NEL VCSE Alliance are responsible for setting remuneration levels for the charity's most senior staff. The Trustees' aim when setting pay levels is to offer fair pay to attract and keep appropriately qualified staff to lead, manage, support and deliver the charity's aims. Trustees endeavour to ensure that pay setting is consistent with the charity's aims.
In deciding top levels of pay and rewards, trustees will consider:
a) the purposes, aims and values of the charity, and its beneficiaries' needs
b) how pay is linked to the skills, experiences and competencies that the charity needs from its senior staff and the scope of their roles
c) the charity's current plans and how implementing them may affect the number of senior staff the charity needs to employ or recruit, and the nature of these roles
d) the charity's ability to pay
e) information on pay policies and practices in other organisations that could help guide a decision on whether a level of pay is fair
f) the wider 'employment offer' they can make to potential employees, where pay is one part of a package that includes personal development, personal fulfilment and association with the charity's cause
g) the likely impact on, and views of, beneficiaries, donors, funders, and current and potential volunteers
Wider network
The Alliance will continue to attempt to broaden its membership and to provide opportunities for VCSE organisations to meet and build their own networks.
Debbie Woodward
Sadly, on December 2nd 2021 we lost one of our founding members Debbie Woodward who had been ill for some time. Debbie, who helped to form the Alliance back in 2015, was very passionate about growing the VCSE sector and improving our relationship with one another and our statutory partners. Debbie was our Treasurer and she played a lead role in the development of the organisation; we shall miss her greatly.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of North East Lincolnshire VCSE Alliance for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements 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 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 Charity 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 charitable company 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 charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
