Chair’s Report

For Share Knowsley this was a year of change. I attended my first trustee meeting on in March 2024. Along with Hannah Deane, we replaced some experienced trustees who had left the board. I was elected to the position of Chair at my next meeting in May 2024. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the previous chair David Monaghan for his years of service and for remaining on the Board and sharing his expertise with me and so providing stability and continuity for the charity.

In October of 2024, the CEO, Margaret Roche announced her intention to retire from post. The Board greatly benefitted from advice from a consultant provided and funded by Lloyds Bank. She worked with me and Margaret to recruit a new CEO in February 2025. After a hand over period of a couple of weeks and a fitting send off, Pablo Guidi took up post.

Of course, a new manager has a new way of working. Pablo brought with him much experience of management and began to innovate new working practices. He also began to seek the views of staff and trustees about the future direction and capabilities of the organisation.

The societal problems that SHARe operate in get no easier, in fact the reverse. There is persistent hostility and aggression shown towards our clients and we are grateful to the local police service who work closely with us to record and respond to Hate Crime. Several of our clients are now homeless and street sleeping. We work with the local council and other agencies to try and ameliorate this awful situation.

At the end of the 2024/25 period the charity is in a sound financial position and continues to have funding for operations to run at the same level into 2026. The commitment of our wonderful volunteers continues to astound us, and we are forever grateful to them for all they do.

As you will see from this report there has been much good work undertaken by our dedicated staff. I want to take this opportunity to thank my fellow trustees for their unwavering hard work and support.

Ann Henders, Chair of the Board of Trustees

Structure, Governance & Management

SHARE KNOWSLEY’s organisational structure changed when the organisation applied for, and was granted, Charitable Incorporated Institution (CIO) status on 10th August 2025.

As this new structure replaced the previous constitution under which SHARE KNOWSLEY operated as an unincorporated charitable organisation, a transition period was introduced. During this period, both versions of the charity operated side by side until the end of the financial year in March 2024.

This report then covers the period from 1[st] April 2024, when SHARe was fully and solely a CIO.

The trustees of the CIO of SHARE are:

----- End of picture text -----

The trustees are committed to ensuring that SHARe Knowsley carries out its purposes responsibly. They bring with them, particular skills and experience which are of benefit to the charity, and they consider and comply with the principles set out in the Charity Commission’s Governance Code when carrying out their duties.

This year, trustees’ meetings have been held bi-monthly to review the financial position, the progress of the charity, and monitor its performance. We have continued to grow in response to increasing demand, so we can continue to achieve the organisation’s charitable purposes, as stated below:

“THE RELIEF OF NEED AMONGST REFUGEEES AND ASYLUM SEEKERS PRIMARILY BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE BOROUGH OF KNOWSLEY WHO ARE IN CONDITIONS OF HARDSHIP OR DISTRESS THROUGH THE PROVISION OF EMOTIONAL, ECONOMIC AND PRACTICAL SUPPORT TO PROMOTE THE INTEGRATION AND INCLUSION TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT THE ISSUES RELATING TO REFUGEES AND THOSE SEEKING ASYLUM.”

New trustees are recruited and appointed in accordance with the guidelines set out in the Constitution. Consideration is given to the needs of the organisation and the skills needed by the

5

trustees to best serve SHARe Knowsley. To reflect the composition of our beneficiaries and gain greater insight into the needs of our beneficiaries, how we can best meet these needs, and make informed decisions, the board has recruited an additional trustee who has lived experience of the asylum process and was a former client. We aim to recruit additional board members who have lived experience of the asylum process or of being a refugee.

During the year, Ann Henders joined as a trustee and subsequently became Chair. We thank her and all trustees for their work.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Public Benefit

The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance regarding public benefit and are satisfied that the activities of the Charity, as described, meet the necessary criteria.

Risk analysis

The Trustees have identified the major risks to which the Charity is exposed. The Trustees consider that they have taken such action and put in place policies, procedures and controls which will mitigate the identified risks and assist in maintaining the future financial viability of the Charity.

Remuneration of Trustees

During the year none of the Trustees of the Charity received remuneration for the provision of their position as trustee to the Charity.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities

The Trustees are required to prepare Financial Statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of its results for that period (based on Receipts and Payments In preparing those Financial Statements the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy and at any time, the financial position of the Charity. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Financial Review

The results for the period ended 31[st] March 2025 are shown later in this report. Accounts have been prepared on a receipts and payments basis rather than an accruals basis, as permitted under the Charity SORP 2015 relating to smaller charities. The organisation continues to grow year on year, and is looking to develop further services to better meet the needs of our clients and ensure sustainability.

Reserves Policy

6

The Charity has unrestricted reserves of £151,163. Of this we hold 3 months running and wind up costs – in accordance with our own internal finance and reserves policy. This is a reasonable balance to help fund day-to-day activities as we move into planning for and investing in the future of the organisation. As activities are more established and the Charity grows, we will be able to determine a regular cost base upon which we can set our target reserves level in order to ensure ongoing sustainability.

Investment Policy

The Trustees are responsible for the investment of any surplus funds of the Charity. As such funds may be required for immediate use, the Trustees continue to review various interest bearing, instant access deposit accounts in which to place such monies.

7

Vision, Aims and Values

Vision

To support asylum seekers and refugees living in Knowsley so that they feel welcome, safe, valued and are able to positively build their lives in a community where everyone’s rights are recognised and respected.

We want them to thrive, not just survive and become valued members of our community where diversity is celebrated.

Our Work and Developments

Casework and Community Development

This year, with additional funding, we expanded our casework team to five, including three with lived asylum experience and two former clients. Our full-time Lead Caseworker is Lottery-funded, and one part-time role focuses on eVisa support through a 12-month Home Office grant. We also appointed a Community Development Officer to work on partnerships, and awareness raising.

The extra capacity allows us to maintain essential support for new arrivals and existing clients. With help from volunteers, we build clients’ knowledge and independence, ensuring they register with GPs, access education, and receive guidance—especially during the stressful move-on period after gaining refugee status.

Caseworkers are available at drop-ins and by appointment, responding quickly to issues and staying updated on system changes. In June 2024, as the risk of detention and removal to Rwanda grew, the team proactively informed all clients, distributed contact cards, and monitored reporting appointments. This enabled us to intervene and secure legal support for a detained client.

9

One-to-One Support

This year, with the support of funders like the National Lottery and John Moores Foundation, we devised an enhanced model of support which acts as a guide to the additional one-to-one support that can be given.

This has been trialled with the paid caseworker team and 15 clients but given the constant demand for support from clients with immediate issues, the caseworkers have found it difficult to allocate the time to regularly meet and do the necessary outreach of accompanying them to various events or activities in the local community to assist in facilitating their integration.

“93% of the clients who responded gave a rating of 4 stars or above in response to the statement that they felt more informed and were able to make better decisions with the information they had received from SHARe Knowsley”

10

Drop Ins

Between 80 – 120 clients attend the drop-ins every week with approximately 40 to 70 clients attending each of the drop-ins, which are in different parts of Knowsley, one in Kirkby and one in Prescot so that we can reach as many clients as possible, who need support.

The drop-ins are crucial in helping people develop an informal support network and we know that clients who have been living in Knowsley a longer time, give advice and support to the new arrivals, as we try our best to link people up at the drop-ins.

“Attending the drop-ins helped me feel less isolated.”

“The one-to-one support they received from SHARe Knowsley has helped me feel less anxious and less stressed.”

(From our most recent Client Feedback Survey in March 2025, 100% of respondents gave 4 stars or above (out of a maximum of 5) to the above statements)

Emergency Support and food Provision

In 2024–25, we provided £1,496 in Emergency Support (up from £247 in the previous year), reflecting rising destitution and increased homelessness linked to refugee status and housing shortages.

We also supplied extra food parcels and supermarket vouchers to those left without funds due to delays or withdrawal of benefits or asylum support. Additionally, we covered the cost of school uniforms and shoes for newly arrived families to ensure children could start school without delay. This is additional to the food parcels that we distribute each week, in part funded by Knowsley Winter Wellness and Tesco funds.

While some of this work is funded by grants, much of it is through the generous donations from individuals and groups – to whom we are most grateful.

11

English Provision

Our English classes continue to provide an invaluable service for newly arrived – many of whom are learning English for the first time. The 2 morning classes are over subscribed, but SHARe works closely with Knowsley college ESOL class to support referrals.

Through the year clients have benefited from number of additional group activities which have helped improve their skills and confidence, had a positive impact on people’s wellbeing, raise awareness of what else is on offer in the area.

Volunteers

“I have been volunteering for 8yrs, and SHARe is now a big part of my life, and filled a void after retirement. I regard staff, volunteers and most importantly the clients as my extended family.”

Over the year, our active volunteer team has grown from 35 to 43, including 3 former clients and 4 current clients. In the past month, we received 6 new applications, half from clients. We recognise that former client volunteers may move on to paid work, but we are pleased they gain valuable experience with us. Additional clients also support drop-in setup and closing.

Three long-standing volunteers are currently unable to work due to serious health issues but hope to return. We recruited 14 new volunteers this year, balanced by 6 leaving—two for paid employment and the rest for personal reasons. Volunteer retention remains high, with over 30% serving more than three years. However, as 42% are in their seventies or eighties, ongoing recruitment is essential.

Volunteers not only support clients directly but also act as ambassadors for SHARe Knowsley, challenging negative rhetoric and promoting initiatives such as the Love Over Hate campaign and Refugee Action’s petition for a not-for-profit asylum system.

They also strengthen community inclusion by connecting clients with activities through their own networks, including the St Agnes & St Aidan parish’s ‘International Table,’ local walking groups, foodbank volunteering, and a Nativity production. Two clients now volunteer in the Old School House kitchen.

Volunteer feedback is consistently positive, with many describing the role as fulfilling and appreciating the sense of belonging and impact they experience.

12

Celebrations

This past year we have had several celebrations for various festivals including Christmas, Persian New Year and Eid. Mainly held for our clients but obviously all volunteers are invited as well as various other members from the local community, including members from the Council, and local councillors who were able to learn about other festivals and experience the richness of food, music and dancing of other cultures.

Nowruz - Persian New Year

Client and Volunteer Wellbeing

This year, as well as the selection of events shown above, one of the SHARe volunteers started a well being space at the drop ins. Working with volunteers with lived experience, this service provides a space for clients to relax and find out about techniques to reduce anxiety.

Notes to the accounts

For the year ended 31 March 2025

Accounting policies

1a Basis of preparation

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and on the accrual basis.

1b. Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.

At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.

1c. Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

1d. Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

1e. Funds Accounting

All income and expenditure together with gains and losses are allocated to a specific charitable fund. Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be used solely for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. Further details of restricted funds together with their purposes are set out in note 15.

1f. Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

17

Tangible assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the original purchase price, costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into its working condition for its intended use, dismantling and restoration costs and borrowing costs capitalised.

Plant and machinery and fixtures, fitting, tools, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write each asset off over its anticipated useful economic life. A full year's depreciation charge is charged in the year of acquisition and no depreciation is charged in the year of disposal. Fixtures and fittings 20% pa on reducing balance basis Office equipment 25% pa on the reducing balance basis Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the charitable company and the cost can be measured reliably. Repairs, maintenance and minor inspection costs are expensed as incurred.

Tangible assets are derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected. On disposal, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.

1g. Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1h. Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

1i. Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

1j. Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its eligible employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as an expense when they are due. Amounts not paid are shown in creditors or accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds.

1k. Related Parties

18

There were no transactions with related parties.
