25 April 22 Trustees’ Annual Report and Financial Statement From 01.01.2021 to 31.12.2021 Charity name: The Getaway Foundation Charity registration number: 1187336 The Trustees are pleased to present their report for The Getaway Foundation for the financial period 01.01.2021 to 31.12.2021. The Financial Statement has been set out to comply with the Charity’s Constitution, the Charities Act of 1993 and as per the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting of Charities published in 2005. ## **Introduction to The Getaway Foundation (TGAF)** TGAF is a registered CIO charity, charity number 1187336. The charity was registered on 13th January 2020, its main purpose is to **help families in poverty create happy memories through holidays.** _“When we went swimming both our children loved it, but every part that made my little boy happy made me happy and there were so many good memories”_ _**26[th] July 2021 – TGAF Family Holiday Feedback**_ The Trustees and founders set up the charity to provide families in poverty with some of the same memories and experiences that they benefitted from with their families as children. Research shows that many families in poverty are unable to afford luxuries such as holidays with an estimated 1 in 4 families struggling to afford a holiday (Barnardo’s research). Today there are just over 2.4 million children in the UK living in relative poverty (DWP, March 2021) of which 2 million are living in absolute poverty. Many of these children do not have the chance to create happy family memories on holiday. Mental health and wellbeing are key concerns impacting families today that the Trustees and founders wanted to address. Families’ experiences gained through holidays are proven to help them through times of crisis. It is the goal that the holidays provide short term relief from the everyday stresses facing families in poverty but also in the long term, provide tools which the families can draw upon to get through challenging times. Many adults today say some of their happiest childhood memories are from family holidays. The Trustees and founders believe that as many families as possible should have this opportunity and that poverty should not be a barrier to creating happy family memories on holiday. The charity’s work in 2021 focused on supporting families in Buckinghamshire (Bucks), Milton Keynes (MK) and on the Isle of Wight (IOW). The charity has developed close relationships with these partners and their social worker teams, supporting the local community. UK government figures below show that in 2020 there were just under 28,000 children living in relative poverty in the geographic areas TGAF supports (23,000 living in absolute poverty).

The key objectives are: 1) To relieve the needs of economically and socially disadvantaged families by the provision of grants of financial assistance to enable them to experience family holidays and other shared recreational activities that they could not otherwise afford in the interests of social welfare and in order to improve their conditions of life. 2) To advance in life, relieve the needs of and help children and young people by providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals. 3) To relieve the needs of families who are economically and socially disadvantaged in periods of extreme national crisis and associated economic and social uncertainty, by the provision of grants. Page � of �2 13 25 April 22 ## **Implementation of TGAF Key Objectives in 2021** _“Seeing my child happy made me happy”_ _**26th July 2020 – TGAF Family Holiday Feedback**_ TGAF focused its activities in 2021 on supporting our core charity’s purpose to provide holidays for families living in poverty to help make happy family memories.

The families were referred to us via our supporting partners and social worker teams from IOW Council, Bucks Council and MK Council. All the families referred to us were living in relative poverty and for the vast majority had not been on holiday as a family for at least 3 years (to the best of the knowledge of the supporting partners). Many of the families had never been on holiday and and, in the case of the IOW, many had never been on the mainland before. As part of our support, we look to provide transportation for the holiday as this is a major barrier for many families living in Bucks / MK and on the IOW. Without this support 46% of the families we supported would have struggled to go on holiday. 2021 was the charity’s first full year of delivering family holidays and, given the challenges and uncertainty of Covid, we are very proud to have been able to offer 52 families a holiday experience. ## **Summary of main activities and achievements to support the charity’s public benefit and core purpose** ## **Holiday Provision** As stated above, TGAF provided 52 family holiday and helped over 250 people during 2021, with the average number of people per family equaling 5. The holidays were provided by Parkdean Resorts and as part of the holiday TGAF included the following: _i % f l S d b S i_ - UK-based, caravan holiday with entertainment, dining facilities and swimming/beach access. - Resort Vouchers to support eating at the resorts’ restaurants and a welcome food pack on arrival. This helped address the issue of food poverty and made sure the family cost for the holiday was reduced. - Support for transportation which may have included fuel costs, or taxi transport if the family did not have access to a car. We also provided child car seats for those families without. This was critical in our experience to support all disadvantaged families. - Provision of wheelchair access caravans if required for the family. Also additional rooms in specific situation for families with children with autism, when possible. - Cancellation costs in the event of illness and covid 19. Page � of �3 13 25 April 22 - Choice of date for holidays, based upon availability with Parkdean Resorts. Funding covered peak period Summer holidays as the Trustees felt it important that families with school-aged children could go on holiday without impacting education. ## **Family Feedback** As part of our continuous improvement objectives for TGAF, we surveyed families post-holiday to ask them what the main benefits were they got from their holidays and what they enjoyed the most about the holidays. The information below is direct feedback from the families who responded to our post-holiday survey based upon a 35% response rate from families for Summer 2021: _Figure 1 What did the family enjoy the most 2021 TGAF Holidays_ _Figure 2 Main Family Benefits 2021 TGAF Holidays_ As stated above in Figure 1, family time was something that most families enjoyed the most and the holidays provided multiple benefits as stated in Figure 2 with the key benefits being: - Provided the family with something to look forward to pre-holiday - Long-term family memories and shared experiences _“We as a family had a superb holiday and made some fantastic memories”_ _**8[th] June 2021 – TGAF Family Holiday Feedback**_ Poverty is a key barrier for a family to be able to afford a holiday. As part of our post-holiday survey, we asked families to tell us when they had last been on holiday. Of families that responded over 41.2% said they had never been on holiday before, results are shown in Figure 3 below. _“Absolutely loved watching the children have so much fun in a completely different environment, they loved it, We loved it, thank you”_ _**August 12[th] 2021 TGAF Family Holiday Feedback**_ Figure 3 - Family Historical Holidays - TGAF _2021_ Page � of �4 13 25 April 22 ## **Diversity and support for families with disabilities** Our stated aim is to be able to support all types of families and remove barriers for disadvantaged families living in poverty to be able to create happy family memories on holiday. A large percentage of the families we supported had children with ASD, autism and other forms of learning and behavioural difficulties. We also provided several disability modified caravans and 5 of the families we supported came from Young Carer families on the IOW. This was reflected in our post-holiday survey with 65% of families that responded saying at least one member of the family suffered from at least one form of disability. As a charity we want to make sure we support families impacted by poverty from all ethnic backgrounds. According to Wikipedia 91.7%, 78.9% and 97.3% of the population in Bucks Council, MK and IOW respectively define themselves as white, with the S Asian community being the 2nd biggest demographic with 4.3%, 9.7% and 1.1% of the population defining themselves as Asian respectively. In 2021 73% of the families TGAF supported defined themselves as white, 15% as Mixed Ethnicity and 12% Black/Caribbean/African based upon a percentage of all our referrals. ## **Key learnings and continuous improvement for 2022** _“Best thing to come out of this year. Was absolutely amazing holiday. Thank you”_ _**16[th] August 2021 – TGAF Family Feedback**_ 1. **Supporting families with autism and disabilities** : The charity’s priority is to support the family whilst being - aware of looking - for the lowest cost options. Many of the families we support have children with autism. To provide the best experience possible for these families, where we can, we look to make sure a separate bedroom is provided, if desired, to support the child with autism. This is an objective for 2022, subject to the maximum size of the caravans available. 2. **The continued importance of transport support:** 46% of the families we supported needed transport support as they did not have access to a car. Access to transportation is a major barrier for a family in poverty. With the impact of Covid and concerns on public transport infection, combined with many of our families being anxious of travelling and also the fact that the locations of holidays are difficult to reach, we decided to provide a taxi transfer rather than use public transport. As a charity, we appreciate that this can be considerably more expensive (estimate 30-40% increase cost for a family of 5 travelling during the day), but when we evaluated the simplicity, the time savings, the reduced stress and risks, we felt the benefits for the family outweighed the increased cost. Please note we had 100% pick up and drop-off success, working with some excellent supporting partners – Aqua Cars, Portsmouth and Skyline Taxis. The support received from Aqua Cars for managing car seats for families coming from the IOW was exceptional. 3. **Child car seat provision:** Approximately 60% of the families we provided car transport support for also needed help with car seat provision. In these cases were able to work very closely with our social worker support partners to make sure we were able to provide them. Within MK we provided a number of car seats that were managed by the social worker team for their families and, as stated above, Aqua Cars in Portsmouth managed a supply of car seats we provided for families from the IOW. 4. **Voucher support to include activities:** Food poverty for many of the families we support is a real concern. As part of our 2021 holidays we provided vouchers for food during the families’ stay and also a small welcome pack of essentials on arrival. Direct feedback through our survey suggested that to enhance memories and also to further remove poverty barriers, it would be really beneficial for the families to be able to use the vouchers for some of the family experiences offered at the resorts, such as crazy golf and high ropes. In 2022 we will work with Parkdean Resorts to move to a prepaid card model that will be able to be used Page � of �5 13 25 April 22 for either food at the resort or family experiences. The prepaid cards will be restricted to exclude alcohol and provide a set amount per child and adult to provide food and experiences to help enhance family memories. 5. **Working with the local community and community partners:** 2021 was our first full year as a charity to provide holidays for disadvantaged families. As part of our charity’s work we have been able to build good local relationships with the community and a number of key partners to support our work. Examples include: - a. WightFerries have been inspirational in providing free ferry transport for families living on the IOW. - b. The WightAid Foundation and the YMCA supporting families on the IOW and also young Carers. - c. We have worked with InspireBucks to link toys provided to MK Council from Argos to support families throughout the county using our charity’s contacts. - d. Stowe School Sixth Form supported our charity’s work with a donation to support family holidays. - e. The Stanley Trust supported families in Bucks and The Buckingham Masonic Centenary Fund are to provide support for family transportation in 2022. - f. Working with XPO Logistics to provide more family holidays and STIFEL Europe who will support our work to help with food poverty and experiences whilst on holiday in 2022 - g. Our partnerships with local Social Services have been vital. Many of the families we support have complex family challenges, suffer from anxiety and many will be going on holiday for the first time. Working with local social services is a key factor in our ability to be able to provide holidays and remove some of the poverty barriers faced. - h. Taxi partnerships with Aqua Cars and Skyline Taxis were instrumental in our ability to provide transport with 100% success rate. Making sure contact numbers and pickup addresses were correct was a key challenge. This needs to be considered as a key dependency as we look to expand to an additional support partner. ## **Covid 19 Impact Statement** “ _Going to the seaside, going to the fair and arcade. Watching the kids being so happy and on an adventure. We all had a fantastic time. Seeing the children swim for the first time, watching their excitement at the beach and just experiencing their enjoyment”_ _**2nd August 2021 TGAF Family Feedback**_ Many of the families we supported in 2021 were suffering from anxieties exacerbated by Covid and a change of environment was a key benefit of the holidays provided. Approximately 10% of the family holidays we provided had to be rescheduled due to Covid cases. Most of these holidays were rebooked for later in the year. This worked well due to the Covid Policy provided by Parkdean Resorts. Parkdean Resorts faced challenges during the year due to staff shortages, impacting their provision of holidays and other services, such as cleaning. For example, in one of their major resorts there were only 15 cleaners available out of a team of 70 for one of their busiest weeks, which provided significant operational challenges for the resort. With increased demand for UK holidays, the price of holiday accommodation increased on average by 14% (comparing Q4 2020 with H1 2021). We are expecting the pricing levels to stay high and Page � of �6 13 25 April 22 potentially increase further whilst uncertainty remains around international travel and holidaying abroad due to the continuing impact of Covid. ## **Statement on Fundraising and Charity Objectives 2022** ## **Sources of Income 2021** |**Unrestricted**|**Grant / Donation**

Page � of �9 13 25 April 22 Please note the restricted funds spent in 2021 were aligned to the donation by the Wight Aid foundation and were 100% used to support families from the Isle of Wight as per the restrictions and conditions of the grant. Page �10 of �13 25 April 22 **TGAF Financial Position** ## **Policy for holding a reserve** We plan to build up a reserve over time in line with our long-term commitments and charity’s growth. - £5000 was held in reserve for FY2021 in line with our funding plan and commitments. - £7,500 was held in reserve for FY2022 in line with our funding plan and commitments. - £10,000 will be held in reserve for FY2023 in line with our funding plan and commitments The reserve build up is funded by or core benefactor donation. Our 2022 costs, excluding holiday provision are expected to be stable, with a budgetary 4% increase taken for inflation. Salary costs are expected to be flat. We expect to see holiday cost inflation driven by the UK holidays market and increased transportation costs due to fuel price increases. ## **Structure, Governance and Management** ## **Type of governing document and constitution** The charity’s constitution was registered on the 13th January 2020 and amended on the 26th March 2020.
