SHARE Oxford: Trustee’s Annual Report 2024-5

About SHARE Oxford

We aim to reduce consumption and waste, by sharing and repairing the things we use so we don’t have to buy them.

We hire out things that people only need occasionally - for example carpet cleaners, party gear or hedge trimmers - and repair those which would otherwise be thrown away.

Along with similar groups across the world, we are working to help solve the climate crisis. This is about our local community doing our bit, inspiring others to do the same and helping everyone live more sustainably.

With all the skills in this city, we think Oxford should be the greenest small city on the planet. With your support, we can make it happen.

What we do

We have summarised our purpose (charitable objects) in our constitution as:

surrounding area by the promotion of waste reduction, reuse, reclamation, recycling, use of recycled objects and the use of surplus at minimal and affordable cost.

This year we have continued to develop our Library of Things, Repair Cafés and Tech Rescue, as well as building our understanding of reuse, passing on unwanted kit to people who could use it. As ever, we’re committed to sharing what we’re learning with others working to build a circular economy:

Library of Things : our community hiring service in Jericho, and online at shareoxford.org where people can reserve the things they need and either come and pick them up or have them delivered and returned by bike courier.

Repair Events : every month, our skilled repair volunteers help fix broken electrical or mechanical things, IT, clothes, bikes, and even sharpen tools, helping people understand how things work and look after them so they last longer and don’t need replacing.

Reuse : we benefit from the excellent networks in Oxfordshire, helping us work with others to keep stuff in use for longer. Our Tech Rescue is also proving to be a good model for finding homes for unwanted stuff, something we’re looking to expand.

The Trustees have managed the charity with due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public beneft. This report has been prepared in line with the guidance for small charities (SoRP FRS102) including a summary of the activities we have carried out for public benefit.

The Team and Volunteering

As ever, we are truly grateful for all the volunteers who make up SHARE Oxford, supported by our two part-time paid staff members Ben and Christine. We’ve continued to see a great level of interest from new volunteers via OCVA’s OxonVolunteers website and elsewhere. This year, 91 volunteers logged more than 1789 hours of time (more than 40% up from 50 people and 1270 hours last year).

The 30 people who have been regularly volunteering for more than a year fill vital roles such as our core repair café, tech rescue and library teams. We are also benefiting from the skills new volunteers bring, for example Vanessa helping us to deliver a bumper Great Big Green Week campaign to reach more people, Kanchana updating our digital comms strategy, Slav setting up automations on some of our processes and Vitor reviewing our organisational planning.

Library of Things

Visitors and hires: the 3-day-a-week opening that we started last year has continued to drive our growth this year, with visits up nearly 60% and number of things hired up 30%. We’ve been pleased to see growth in both new and repeat customers.

Behind the scenes : the team have done a great job keeping up with this growth, with particular focus on:

speedy and thorough checks when things are brought back
Improved coordination between librarians and repairers to keep up with maintenance and repairs
Improving our process for passing things on when they’re no longer robust enough for community hire, but will still be good for someone at home.

We’re also very grateful to ’ Summertown & St Margaret s Community Forum for another round of CIL funding which provided improved shelving, higher-quality protective equipment to go with the tools we hire out, and secure chemical storage cupboards.

New products and top-hires: we didn’t make any major changes to our range this year, instead refining our stock to make sure everything we have is a really high standard. We did find space for some very popular animal hoppers and Andy’s fabulous handmade tombola! A big thank you to everyone who donated items this year.

Parties continued to do well, with lots of games and fun ideas like the chocolate fountain as well as practical stuff like the plant-based plates and bowls in our party kit. In the garden it’s great to see increasing numbers of local customers using our tools every year, as well as new people tackling projects. DIY of course continues to be strong as well as classics like spring cleaning in the home or garden.

Impact of hiring : we’ve continued to ask “what would you have done if we weren’t here?” when we meet new customers, recording another 63 answers this year.

It’s been interesting to see more people mentioning that they would rather go without than buy unnecessary stuff - often we allow them to have some fun without the footprint, or offer a more convenient option than trying to find something secondhand. We are also conscious of those who would have hired elsewhere - we are grateful for the funds raised from items like carpet cleaners but we don’t wish to harm companies who share our mission.

How people are using the library : the stories of people using our things continue to bring a smile:

Vasileios had some amazing results with the sewing machine for his mermaid costume cosplaying the Queer-As-Folklore book cover . “It is my first time using a sewing machine and many thanks for lending it to me. I used it to sew the fabric together for the mermaid body. I used different painting techniques with a mixture of spray painting and hand drawing. The scales are made with silicone, and I have made each one of them individually. The veins on the dragonfly wings are handpainted, too.”

Cathy and Alan planned a Family Bike Ride in support of Thame Greenway and were stunned when, rather than the 50 cyclists they expected, 400 turned up. “ We could never have managed without the large megaphone from Share Oxford to address the crowd at the beginning and end of the event. ”

Phil & Jim’s School Reception children loved the parachute game when they headed out for a sunny afternoon on Port Meadow

Rom and family got cooking during their camping trip with our gas stove (sausage and beans for tea, apparently!)

Amelia had some great results trying her hand at dehydrating fruit for a super-healthy snack. “ this is the first time I’ve used a service like this and it was fantastic!”

Priscille hired our stand mixer to bake beautiful Day of the Dead Bread rolls and may have won herself customer of the year award by bringing a delicious sample back for Ben to try!

Branton and friends took pumpkin carving to the next level, borrowing a drill and drywall saw to create an impressive halloween display:

Eleanor hired the circular saw to fix her fence: “ Being able to use a circular saw and repair a fence myself felt really empowering, probably my achievement of the year. Very grateful to the library of things.”

Cassy and her partner hired our inflatable roof rack to shift an old bed and mattress on the roof of “Hannibal”: “ It would have cost us £44 to use the council's bulky waste collection service for the bed and mattress or around £70 to hire a van. It was such a busted old thing, that not even Emmaus (charity) were able to take it in. Instead of forking out, we spent just a couple of pounds on the roof rack to take the bed to the tip ourselves. It was quite empowering to shift such a bulky item with our car!”

Jess used the heat gun to refresh some handmade candles back to looking good as new:

Andrea, as well as hiring a drill and coping saw to get plenty of good DIY done, also created a beautiful foam rose using our glue gun!

Repair café

Our repair cafés have remained busy and popular this year, although we saw a dip in the numbers as the team at Marston are now all set up to run their repair café solo (which sounds like it’s going really well!), and we had a few smaller months whilst we made changes to our booking system.

We were pleased to have our first Oxford-College-based repair café, teaming up with Wolfson College to help students maintain their bikes and clothes and fix broken electricals.

It’s always exciting to see more repair cafés opening up locally and we support wherever we can as . part of CAG Oxfordshire’s Circular Economy Collaborate Group Green Appleton came to see a repair café in action in July as they got set up. Sustainable Didcot joined our jeans and jumpers workshop in September with tips for repairing these types of clothes at their repair café.

Tech Rescue

After last year’s successful pilot sessions in Great Big Green week, we kicked off our regular monthly IT support and repair sessions in October, celebrating Get Online Week. We’re thrilled to have a core team of regular volunteers who help people get “un-stuck” when their IT does odd things, keep older equipment running smoothly or help people securely pass on unwanted kit, either to Getting Oxfordshire Online if suitable, or finding a suitable home for more “vintage” or specialist equipment.

Reuse

Tech Rescue has also been a great lesson in how we can do more with reuse. As we learn more about IT equipment as a “category”, we’re able to handle the complexities of data security and electrical safety, and we’re able to advise where things can be reused (for example, selling higher-value broken devices on eBay to those who are able to use the parts) or where there is no demand for them any more so recycling is the best route (eg it turns out nobody even picks up SCART cables on Freegle these days!).

As well as our Tech Rescue, this year we continued with informal “matching” to help find homes for things people offered to us that we couldn’t use.

148 more items passed on to partners

This included:

TVs, monitors and printers sourced for Makespace
A large donation of projectors, TV screens and other equipment for SOFEA
More than 50 additional IT and electronics donations, majority of which could go to Getting Oxfordshire Online, with remainder either sold or passed on via Freegle.

Skills Workshops

As well as saving stuff from the bin, skill sharing is a big part of what our volunteers do, helping people maintain and repair their own things. This year we decided to try some new approaches, with skill sharing workshops and a big splash on skills for Great Big Green Week.

28 guests at skills workshops

Our Jeans and Jumpers workshop in September saw 12 guests join our sewing team for a fun afternoon of fixing and learning.

Skills at Great Big Green Week : with thanks to our volunteer Vanessa, we had a go at our first comms campaign built around a focus on sustainable skills for this week. We trialled more skill sharing workshops, with thanks to Lu from Oxford Furniture Makers, Piotr from EOF hackspace and Tony and Peter, electrical repairers from our Repair Café. Over the week, we ran sessions on:

Woodworking tool sharpening with Lu
Bike maintenance basics with Piotr
Introduction to Electrical Repair, with learning slots at our Repair Café with Peter and Tony.

Our sessions sold out, with 5 guests for the sharpening workshop, 7 for the bike repair and 4 for our electrical repair basics. We had positive feedback at all the sessions, with the sharpening workshop the clearest “learning” one. The bikes and electrical sessions helped guests learn skills and get their stuff fixed, operating like extensions to our repair café.

One valuable takeaway from the week was to make sure we continue to remind guests at all our events that you’re welcome to come to learn, whether you have something to fix or not!

Support for CAG workshops : as well as running our own workshops, we collaborated with CAG Oxfordshire for a successful sharpening workshop in January at Makespace, helping them manage the day and supporting on health & safety so they could provide this training event. This was, again, well-received and a model we’ll help them run again next year.

Partnerships and networks

Waste Innovation Station (WISH) - into our second year with the WISH network, we’re valuing learning from the work of the other partners, seeing how our work keeping “stuff” in use fits in alongside food, nature and community in building the circular economy. The Cherwell Collective team have helped us with impact tracking and you can see some case studies from our fantastic Impact Recording volunteers.
Community Action Groups (CAG) Oxfordshire - the CAG team continue to support us, particularly with funding towards our Great Big Green Week activity, coordinating with other community action groups across the county, and supporting us in getting Tech Rescue underway, with a focus on Windows 10 reaching the end of support in 2025. It’s also great to join their quarterly Circular Economy Collaborate Group where we can catch up with other local Community Action Groups and think about ways to drive our missions together.
UK Libraries of Things Network - it’s exciting to see the informal network of Libraries of Things, Tool Libraries and Sharing Sheds across the UK continuing to develop, with a thriving WhatsApp community and different projects sharing what they’re up to, top tips, lessons learned and guidance for new starters.
Global Repair Café Network - we don’t engage as regularly with this international group, but it was fun to send off some beautiful bunting flags from Abingdon Repair Café and Sustainable Didcot to be included in the Repair Cafés 15th birthday celebration.

Spreading the Word

Events

Thank you to all the volunteers who got out and about to meet people and spread the word about what we do, making use of some of the more fun things you can hire from the Library of Things.

More than 800 conversations with our community

Two Begbroke Science Wonder Garden Parties fell into this year (July 2024 and June 2025); both the smoothie bike and badge making were popular with kids and families and it was great to team up with Kate from the county council’s public health team to explain the uses of the air quality monitor they have provided for us to hire out.

Online

Our new comms team have been trying different approaches to reach more people and drive engagement online. Kanchana put together a great digital marketing strategy which got us thinking about clearer goals and focuses for our content. We’ve been taking first steps with video, getting more active with our YouTube channel and experimenting with more reels (check out James’s top ten on our instagram!). Thank you to all those who produced content, wrote blogs and newsletter material for us this year; we’re looking fresher and brighter than ever with more to explore!

Numbers-wise, after the step-up last year when we integrated the library catalogue into our shareoxford.org site, we’ve not seen traffic grow, so this remains a focus to introduce new people to SHARE as we know we still depend a lot on word of mouth.

We are pleased to hear increasingly from Library of Things customers that they found us on Google searching for key items from our range. We’re also working to make our content “AI friendly” so we show up to those who prefer to ask a GPT where they can hire a pressure washer or get their toaster repaired.

We’re also not seeing significant growth in social media followers or engagement metrics, so we’ll continue our focus on using all channels to reach more people across the city and beyond.

Reserve funding levels

Our Reserves Policy sets a minimum target for our core funds:

Our “reserve” level is of 3-months operating cost + a £2k buffer for handling emergencies.
We also set a “code red” level of 1-months operating cost + £1k shutdown costs, a level at which the board has agreed the charity would immediately be wound up, to avoid harming any creditors.

We completed this year with £20k of core funding in our bank, above our reserve level of £11k.

Principal sources of funding

We’re very grateful to everyone who’s provided funding this year. As well as our trading income from the Library and donations including at repair cafes, we received the following significant grants and restricted donations:

National Lottery Community Fund - Climate Action Fund Round : £7.7k of a £42k five-year grant to support the Cherwell Collective’s WISH project. Network for Social Change : £6.8k to support development of our Library of Things The Grocer’s Charity : £5k of funding to support a year’s worth of repair cafés. Oxford City Council via Summertown & St Margaret’s Neighbourhood Forum : £3.6k of CIL funding to refurnish our library of things with new shelves and buy new safety equipment. Oxford County Council via CAG Oxfordshire : £1.1k for our Great Big Green week skills workshops and campaign and “end of 10” Tech Rescue support.

Risk statement

The board reviews our charity risk register every quarter and this has helped prioritise our work in the year, ensuring secure operations and excellence in quality of service and compliance.

We are confident in the future of the charity, with focus on these key risks:

Financial sustainability: we have robust budgeting and forecasting in place and are focused on growing our trading income and maintaining enough grant income to secure our future.
Key personnel: as a very small team, we are working to cross-train and work to documented processes to ensure we are not overly reliant on any one person.

Case studies

We’re very grateful to Jane, Evaluation lead at Cherwell Collective, our impact evaluation volunteers Isobel and Indira, and everyone who was happy to be interviewed to pull together these case studies.

This year’s case studies have focused on our repair cafés, and helped us understand better how our community can deliver much more than just the resource benefits of fixed stuff. Themes come through such as:

Empowerment achieved through repair and skill-sharing
Community, connection and belonging, both for volunteers and guests
The change of mindset that taking action on climate can bring
Learning, adapting and innovating together
The power of repair to restore purpose for people too

Our interviewees also provided useful reminders of how we can do more, from extending the infrastructure for and awareness of repair services, to building the culture of repair and reuse in our city and beyond.

We found these very motivating, reminding us why we do what we do and inspiring us to go further. Thank you to all involved and we hope you enjoy reading them too!

Note 2 Accounting policies

2.2 INCOME

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.
Recognition of income These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: · the charity becomes entitled to the resources; · it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and · the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Offsetting There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. Contractual income and performance related grants This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Donated services and facilities Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.

Income from interest, royalties and dividends This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Investment gains and losses This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial instruments The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. 2.4 ASSETS Tangible fixed assets for use by charity These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least They are valued at cost. The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. Intangible fixed assets The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 They are valued at cost. Heritage assets The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. They are valued at cost. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end.

Independent I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have examiner's statement come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
