The Oxford Diocesan Board of Finance no longer elects members. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT.** The Oxford Diocesan Council for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (The Charity) is a registered charity, formed on the 3[rd] July 1950; registered with the Charity Commission number 203428. The charity is an “Assisted Organisation” within the Diocese of Oxford. The Charity adopted a new constitution in April 2008. ## **Decision making structure** The Trustees, meeting quarterly as a Council, are responsible for bringing vision to the Charity, the strategic management of the Charity, the management of its funds, the preparation and management of the budget and finances and for reporting upon all the Charity’s operational activities. Day to day operational activities are overseen primarily by the Chair in conjunction with the Lead Chaplain. Day to day financial activities are overseen primarily by the Honorary Treasurer, assisted by the Pastoral, Finance and Administrative Officer. Between Council meetings, all relevant and necessary matters, especially those that require the consent of Council, are communicated to Council members, for consultation, information and decision making. Where necessary, these decisions are recorded at the next Council Meeting. All meetings during this financial year have been conducted remotely by Zoom. ## **Appointment of Trustees** The current Trustees were appointed as shown above. There is no Honorary Secretary, as Council employs a Pastoral, Finance and Administration Officer. TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 203428 Page 2 ## **OXFORD DIOCESAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING** ## **Trustees’ remuneration and expenses.** No Trustee receives any remuneration from the Charity. The Chair and the Honorary Treasurer are entitled to be reimbursed for expenses incurred on behalf of the Charity as are all Trustees for any costs incurred in attending Meetings and any other additional expenses incurred on behalf of the Charity. ## **Related parties** The Oxford Diocesan Board of Finance (ODBF): the Charity continues to be an “Assisted Organisation” of the ODBF. The Pastoral, Finance and Administrative Officer and the post of Chaplain for the Deaf are employed by the ODBF, the latter being a Diocesan appointment, although all fully financed by the ODCD. Under a written agreement with the ODBF, the ODCD reimburses the costs of the Pastoral, Finance and Administrative Officer and likewise with the Chaplain. ## **Risk Management** The Council continuously review the Charity’s activities and plans, in order to identify any significant risks to which the ODCD is or may be exposed. Systems are in place to manage risks. All policies are reviewed annually at the September Council Meeting ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** The objects of the Charity, as expressed in the Constitution, are “to promote the spiritual, social and general wellbeing of people who are deaf and hard of hearing in the Diocese of Oxford and to support the work of the Diocesan Chaplain in ministry amongst the Deaf Churches and congregations in the Diocese of Oxford.” ## **Achievements and performance** During this financial year, the Trustees have continued upon a complete revision of all aspects of ODCD’s work and the regular, at least annual, review of its practice and policies. This was prompted, in part, by the issuing of a substantial document from Oxford Diocese’s Bishop’s Council calling upon all aspects of Diocesan life to evaluate themselves and, specifically “to assess [its] value and efficiency.” There is an agreed updated Constitution, and a new Mission Statement both of which have been put up on the ODCD website. Eight new policies have been drafted and approved by Trustees and put into operation. The Council’s appointment of a full time paid Chaplain for the Deaf working with the Deaf Churches and across the whole Diocese has given Council the opportunity to reassess ODCD’s vision, outreach and mission. The planning for this appointment has been the focus of much work during the previous financial year and is now being furthered as the Lead Chaplain becomes better known across the Diocese and is included in the important decision making across the Diocesan network. The intention is to continue reassert, expand and grow the Charity’s work, vision, outreach and mission across the whole Diocese. With the successful appointment this work is making substantial progress. The objects of the Charity, as expressed in the Constitution, are “to promote the spiritual, social and general wellbeing of people who are deaf and hard of hearing in the Diocese of Oxford and to support the work of the Diocesan Chaplain in ministry amongst the Deaf Churches and congregations in the Diocese of Oxford.” TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 203428 Page 3 ## **OXFORD DIOCESAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING** Post COVID, there has been an increasing frequency of both on line Services [ monthly] and inter personal Services [regularly]. The Lead Chaplain, the Honorary Chaplain and the LLMs attached to the ODCD have led this increasing and invaluable outreach and mission which continues to expand both numerically and in the locations that are available and used for worship and fellowship. The sale of the Oxford Deaf Church site has been finalised (after the dates covered by this Report – March 2023, although funds realised are yet to be released). The proceeds of sale are secured pending agreement as to their division. ## **Safeguarding** All members of the Council have been DBS checked and updated; all Council members are now all currently certified. Mr Nigel Edward – Few has been the Safeguarding Officer through this financial year. Field staff – the honorary chaplains are all DBS certified in their roles as LLMs ## **Investment performance** Funds invested in M&G Charifund units decreased in value during the year by 0.5%, and funds invested in CCLA decreased in value by 3.5%. Investments continue to provide dividends, this year the amount received has increased by 8% £1,879. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Summary of result for the year** Income increased in this period to £45,303 (2022: £23,778). Overall expenditure increased to £77,878 (2022: £30,387), as there was a chaplain in post for this year. Overall there was a deficit for the period of £32,575 (2022: deficit £6,910) before investment gains, and a deficit of £62,470 (2022: surplus £39,816) after investment gains. The financial position of the Charity therefore remains sound. During the previous year a full time chaplain was employed. With appropriate sale of investments as necessary, the chaplain will be employed for a period of five years, and within that time it is hoped that further funds will benefit the Charity from the sale of the building previously used as the Oxford Deaf Centre, enabling a further assessment of the funding of the post of chaplain. ## **Investment policy** The investments held are suitable for the support of the work of the charity, but as explained above, it is planned to sell some of the investments over the next few years to fund the post of chaplain. ## **Reserves policy** The charity holds considerable reserves in both general funds (£268,455, 2022: £293,805) and restricted fund (£381,132, 2022: £418,253) and it is planned to reduce these reserves to fund the post of chaplain. TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 203428 Page 4 ## **OXFORD DIOCESAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING** ## **PLANS FOR THE FUTURE** The Council will continue to promote the aims, objectives and mission of the Charity and with its increased resources will develop, with vigour, new initiatives to further promote its aims, objectives and mission. Council will continue to monitor and facilitate the Charity’s actual performance in meeting this objective of serving more Deaf and Hard of Hearing people within the Diocese, both centrally and through the Lead Chaplain and her honorary chaplaincy team. They will also monitor the financial security of the Charity. Our recent 125[th] Anniversary Celebration has not only given us an opportunity to look back, remembering and giving thanks for past work and relationships, but has given us a springboard for the years ahead. Church Services for the Deaf will be increased, former and existing links will be strengthened and re-energised and new links will be formed. Opportunities for a greater exposure in the Diocese will be maximised. These will include regular services in Christchurch Cathedral, greater communication and co-operation with Parish Churches, and through strategic partnerships throughout the Diocese. In the Spring of 2024, Council members will be sharing in a whole day Vision Day at which we will explore how we can cast our nets further to reach and support many more Deaf and Hard of Hearing people in the Diocese effectively. A major resource that will undergird much of this new work will be the considerable funds released through the sale of the Deaf Centre in Oxford to one of the University Colleges for redevelopment. Together with our existing reserves, the ministry of ODCD will be assured for several years to come. As well as having ample funds to pay the salary of our recently appointed Lead Chaplain, it will enable us to expand our ministry team and develop new ministry streams. ## **On behalf of the Trustees** His Honour Christopher Tyrer DL Chair until the 1[st] September 2023 Nigel Edward-Few FRSA Chair from the 1[st] September 2023 TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 203428 Page 5 ## **OXFORD DIOCESAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING** ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT** I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Oxford Diocesan Council for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing for period 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023, which are set out on pages 7 to 13. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity trustees of the Oxford Diocesan Council for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing 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 Oxford Diocesan Council for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the 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 which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect: The accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act; or the accounts do not accord with the accounting records; or the accounts did 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. ## **Michael Hardman** ## **January 2024** TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 203428 Page 6 **OXFORD DIOCESAN COUNCIL FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** ## 1. **ACCOUNTING POLICIES** ## BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL SERVICES The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011.
