## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Period 24 November 2020 to 31 December 2021 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the period 24 November 2020 to 31 December 2021. 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** 

The charity mission is to provide easily accessible and face to face well-being related support to mums and babies (under 2) who live in Denbighshire and are at risk of homelessness or have support needs in relation to mental & emotional health, physical health, housing & essentials, managing money, relationships, support network or looking after their baby. This support will enable them to source and secure sustainable and more permanent accommodation, to access training and employment opportunities, to promote positive wellbeing, financial independence and reduce the risk of future poverty and homelessness. 

## Charity Values: 

The founding principles are to support mums and babies and provide them with Kindness, Reliability, Integrity, Honesty, Security, Balance and Opportunities. 

## The Charity’s Objectives Are: 

· The provision of emergency accommodation and/or guidance and support to homeless or potentially homeless mums and babies residing in temporary emergency accommodation to source and secure sustainable and more permanent accommodation, to access training and employment opportunities, to promote positive wellbeing, financial independence and reduce the risk of future poverty and homelessness. 

. The provision of support to develop community initiatives to encourage mums and babies to support each other and feel a sense of community spirit, cohesion and safety.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Period 24 November 2020 to 31 December 2021 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

Below are the main activities we have undertaken during the reporting period to further the charity's purposes for the public benefit. 

## Blossom & Bloom Well-being Support Project 

In January 2021 we received 12 months funding via the Third Sector Resilience Fund to deliver well-being and tenancy move-on related support to homeless mums and babies residing in temporary/emergency accommodation in Rhyl. The charity recruited a part-time funding/finance officer and two part-time wellbeing support assistants to deliver support and meet with the mums and babies on a daily basis. Project delivery phase: 15/01/21 to 31/12/21. 

This grant also funded a £3,000 tenancy move-on pool of funds to facilitate private tenancy move-on deposits and first month rent in advance to be paid to private landlords and then reclaimed in arrears. This removed a huge barrier to successful move-on for our mums and babies. 

## Blossom & Bloom Bed & Breakfast 

During January to October 2021 the charity took over the lease on property, 50 East Parade, Rhyl. The property was used as a Bed & Breakfast providing temporary/emergency accommodation to homeless mums and babies in Rhyl (3 rooms). Allocations were received via the local authority homeless team. This provided safe, secure and high-quality accommodation to homeless vulnerable mum with babies (under 1) and also created an additional income for the charity. 

## Blossom & Bloom Social Group 

In January 2021 Blossom & Bloom started their own social group via social media. The group is accessed and actively used by over 20 mums and babies in the area who provide support and socialisation to each other on a daily basis. Blossom & Bloom Well-being Support Assistants use this group to arrange and coordinate weekly mum and baby social activities, events & play sessions. Together they have visited many suitable recreational facilities in the area including SC2, Planet Play, Rhyl Library, Geronimo's, Corner Café, Brighter Futures, Rhyl Leisure Centre, Boxercise, YOGA, Rhyl Beach, Rhyl Beach Walks. Lots of fun has been had along the way. 

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and planning future activities.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Period 24 November 2020 to 31 December 2021 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

During this Annual Report Period, 21 mums and babies received support by the Charity. 

14 of them were provided emergency accommodation at 50 East Parade. 

6 of them were supported out of homeless accommodation and into their own tenancies (3 social housing and 3 private rented). 

On 31st December 2021 4 mums and babies remained open with us and were receiving outreach support whilst living in alternate temporary accommodation in Rhyl. 

The charity provided part-time employment to 5 people, recruited 1 volunteer and 6 board of trustees. 2 trustees resigned within the reporting period to take a paid role within the charity. 

In August 2021 the board of trustees voted to close the bed & breakfast accommodation at 50 East Parade due to not being in the position to fund additional staff to provide a 24/7 on call service for the building. This had previously been done by Charity Founders Lee Millard and Vicky Welsman-Millard on a voluntary basis however after 9 months this was becoming unmanageable. Trustees made the decision for the charity to focus entirely on outreach well-being support services to mums and babies going forward, and the keys were handed back to the landlord on the 4 October 2021. 

During October 2021 the charity secured funding from The Town Centre Entrepreneurship Fund to fund an outreach office base for staff. This is located within the town centre and is easily accessible to mums and babies requiring support. 

In November 2021 the charity tendered for and were awarded 6 months pilot funding via the central government Community Renewal Fund to continue the support service to mums and babies in the area. This funding has enabled the charity to launch the Blossom & Bloom Outreach Project and to recruit 4 part-time well-being support assistants and a full-time tenancy move-on coordinator. This funding also provides £250 to mums and babies to help to develop their education or work-related learning skills in readiness to return to work after having a baby. The project delivery phase is 01/01/22 - 30/06/22 and the charity are hoping for a successful project delivery and project outcomes which will hopefully lead to being awarded further funds via the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. 

The funding the charity has received so far has made a huge impact on the lives of mums and babies in need and has created new jobs in the area. 

The charity is firmly committed to ensuring all projects and service delivery meet the goals within the wellbeing and future generations act and have a positive social impact within the community. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The charity is wholly reliant on grant funding applications and fundraising to provide support to mums and babies going forward. Charity Founder/Chief Executive Vicky Welsman-Millard will continue to source available funding to continue the charity services going forward. There is currently funding in place for all paid staff until 30 June 2022.

The charity is hoping to develop a fundraising policy in 2022 and focus on developing the charities operation strategy and business plan. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees are confident of the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **COVID-19 IMPACT STATEMENT** 

Blossom & Bloom was incorporated during the COVID-19 pandemic and are unsure if the pandemic has increased the number of mums and babies who require support however the charity is able to strongly evidence that the lack of face-to-face support provided to mums and babies via public and statutory services during the pandemic has had a huge negative impact on the mental health of some mums due to a number of reasons: Face to face support during anti-natal and post-natal periods was massively reduced which caused mums anxiety around pregnancy, birth and parenting especially for first time mums. 

Social isolation due to all parental support groups/classes being cancelled and health professionals not providing face-to-face visits. 

Extended periods of homelessness - Mums and babies experiencing homelessness and residing in emergency/temporary accommodation were not moved on due to lack of available housing. This was the result of property repossessions being put on hold by the courts during the pandemic. The charity has noticed that mums and babies are being moved on into suitable housing much quicker towards the end of 2021 when the restrictions were lifted

## Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Blossom & Bloom 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Blossom & Bloom** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Blossom & Bloom (the Trust) for the period 24 November 2020 to 31 December 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

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** 

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. 

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with the relevant versions of the 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn. We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
