Message from our Chair, March Hancock
With the cost-of-living crisis continuing to cause tremendous difficulty for so many, especially those on low incomes with young children to support, we are proud to continue to deliver on our mission to give families access to fresh fruit and veg in their communities.
Our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project is now in its eighth year, providing families on low incomes with weekly vouchers which can be spent on fruit and veg at their local market. Since our pilot project in Hackney in 2014, over 7,000 families have benefited from Rose Vouchers, giving them access to the fresh fruit and veg they need for their children. This wouldn’t have been possible without the fantastic support from our partners, supporters, funders, and the Alexandra Rose Charity team.
This year we have surpassed our previous record of supporting more families than ever, with 3,222 families redeeming their Rose Vouchers between April 2021 and the end of March 2022.
In October, the one millionth Rose Voucher was spent on North End Road Market in Hammersmith and Fulham. That’s £1,000,000 worth of vouchers spent by families on the fruit and veg of their choice since 2014, helping them give their children the healthiest possible start. A fantastic milestone to reach!
In December 2021, we successfully raised £60k from public and match funders to help finance our eighth project in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The project launched in May 2022.
We have also secured funding to pilot the first ever Fruit & Veg on Prescription Project in Lambeth. This is an exciting development that tests one of the key recommendations of the National Food Strategy. The project will start in the second half of 2022-23.
Thank you for supporting our work and allowing us to continue being there for thousands of families and young children.

Our mission
To give families access to fresh fruit and vegetables in their communities
Trustees’ Report 2021/22
The Trustees, who are also Directors for the purpose of the Companies Act, have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements of Alexandra Rose Charity (“the Charity” or “ARC”) for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The Financial Statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (the “Charities SORP”) 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 2015).
Structure, Governance and Management
The Charity, Registration No 211535, is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England No. 00279157, not having a share capital and governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association. Each of the members of the Charity is liable to contribute £10 towards the liabilities of the Charity in the event of liquidation.
The Charity’s objective and principal activity is to promote, in remembrance of Her Late Majesty, Queen Alexandra, charitable purposes in Greater London and the neighbourhood thereof and elsewhere in the United Kingdom. Its current operations are focused on promoting health and wellbeing for families on lowincomes, through improved access to healthy food through the Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project.

The Charity is governed by a Board of Trustees which takes all medium and longer term strategic decisions. Day to day running of the Charity is overseen by the Chief Executive. Together the Trustees are responsible for delivery of the long-term strategy approved by them. The names of the Members of the Board of Trustees are shown on the first page of this report.
The charity carries out regular skills assessments of Trustees and identifies any gaps that may exist. Steps are taken to recruit new Trustees to fill skill gaps when appropriate.
We undertook our latest skills audit in summer 2021. We also undertook a diversity audit of staff and trustees to identify gaps in representation. This process has helped us understand the make-up of our board and the skills and perspectives needed to support the charity and its development over the coming years.
The skill gaps identified include:
-
Direct experience of the communities we work with and the challenges they face in accessing a healthy diet
-
A history of successful fundraising and/or knowledge of new fundraising techniques – especially the use of digital tools Understanding of the risks and opportunities around data management, including data protection and cyber security
All new Trustees receive a full induction programme following appointment and they are asked to sign a Trustee Covenant, which the Board have approved. The Honorary Treasurer takes the lead on financial matters, principally accounting, budgeting and management of cash and investments.
Each Trustee appointed (or whose appointment is approved or ratified) by the charity in a General Meeting will have an initial three-year term of office with the option of renewal for a further three years by agreement between the Trustee seeking reappointment and the other Trustees.
Each Trustee must stand down at the first Annual General Meeting held on, or after, the date that the Trustee has served for three or six consecutive years. They may reapply to join the board but must have been absent from the board for a minimum of one year before doing so.
- Knowledge of communications, brand/marketing and advocacy and how these can be used to advance the cause of a small charity
Recruitment for new Trustees will begin in spring 2022 to support us in bridging these skill gaps.

Strategy and Activities
We have had another incredibly busy year at Alexandra Rose Charity. Demand for Rose Vouchers continues to increase as we see families on the lowest incomes struggling even further with the continual impact of Covid and the cost-of-living crisis. We are thankful we have been able to support even more families over the last year to access fresh fruit and veg, with 3,222* families redeeming Rose Vouchers in 2021-2022. This number represents a 36% increase in the number of families redeeming Rose Vouchers from the previous year.
We have expanded to 59 children and family centres and 50 market traders around the UK to deliver the Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project. The number of Rose Vouchers redeemed in 2021-2022 is an incredible 458,996, all spent on the fruit and veg of the family’s choice and representing nearly £460,000 worth of income for local traders.
We also began planning the launch of the Rose Vouchers project in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The project launched here in May 2022, becoming our eighth project location. To help us manage our rapidly expanding workload, we’ve recruited new staff to strengthen the organisation.
* Since our 2020-21 annual report, we have changed our method of calculating the number of families supported so that even families who have redeemed vouchers only once (e.g. in a one-off emergency situation) are included. We think this gives a more accurate picture of impact. Last year we only reported on the number of people actively using the project at the end of the fourth quarter, which hugely underestimated the number of people supported across the year. Had this method been in place last year, then the 1,833 figure used in last year's report would instead have been 2,368.

A few of our highlights from this year.
In October we celebrated our one-millionth Rose Voucher being redeemed by a family at North End Road Market in Hammersmith & Fulham. This milestone represents the incredible achievement of £1,000,000 being spent on fresh fruit and veg at local markets and with independent retailers since Rose Vouchers launched in 2014.
We also held an event at East Street Market in Southwark to celebrate the culmination of a ninemonth project working with Rice Retail Marketing to engage market traders. We’ve had some very positive results from this work, with market traders improving how they communicate the Rose Vouchers project to customers and introducing newly branded price sticks co-designed with traders.
We’ve expanded the project for the first time to a local foodbank in Hammersmith & Fulham and a food cooperative in Southwark. Families can collect their vouchers from these locations and spend them there on the produce of their choice at the same time. This saves the family time and the cost of travel between different locations.
New fruit and veg traders have signed up to accept Rose Vouchers in Lambeth and Shepherds Bush Market in Hammersmith & Fulham. These are fantastic additions to our project for families receiving Rose Vouchers in the area, giving them new options of where to spend their vouchers.
“I’ve had really positive feedback from the new trader so far, a lot of families were already buying from them, so it worked out really nicely. The fact that it is so much closer for a lot of families is going to have a real positive impact on them. Having a provision in Streatham, being such a large area of our engagement, is a great outcome, so thank you for arranging this!”

How Rose Vouchers help Fatima's family
"Rose Vouchers are a blessing. I don’t have to worry about being able to afford fruit and veg."
“It’s not easy right now. I had to give up my work, and my husband isn’t around. It’s really challenging because I have to live off benefits which I’m not used to. I’ve got to budget for everything, and I have to count every penny. I shop around for deals which really helps.
My electric bill has gone up, and I just recently tried to change the tariff, but they told me that they can’t guarantee the price.
Rose Vouchers are a blessing. I don’t have to worry about being able to afford fruit and veg. Having Rose Vouchers means I have that burden taken away from me, and I can just concentrate on everything else.
Now that I can’t work because of my health, I don’t have as much money as I had before. Rose Vouchers mean I can put healthy food on the table. They are benefitting so many people.
My children have food allergies, and I have to be so careful with what I’m buying. I want to go for the cheapest food but then I’m thinking what is in the ingredients, will it be ok for my children? Myself, I wanted to cut out gluten from my diet, but gluten-free food is so expensive, so I can’t do that anymore.
At the market I can spend my vouchers on the Caribbean food I want, it really makes a difference. I’m lucky I have really friendly neighbours who sometimes cook for me and my children to help us.
I always tell the staff at the children’s centre I really appreciate the Rose Vouchers.”

Our Achievements
We've had a tremendous year, supporting more families than ever before and growing our staff team to deliver our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Projects around the UK.
Our work has been regularly featured in local and national press, including interviews on Sky News, BBC5 Live and ITV News, highlighting our mission and raising the profile of our charity.
At the end of 2021, we were thrilled to be runners-up for the title of Charity Food Campaigner of the Year at the 2021 Caroline Walker Trust Awards. Caroline Walker pioneered innovative strategies for improving the quality of our food, enhancing nutritional standards and promoting public health. It’s wonderful to have our work recognised by this organisation.

Fundraising Success
The fundraising environment continued to be tough throughout 2021-22, but we had another successful year and increased our income to £994,678. This meant we could support more families than ever in 2021-22.
We continue to implement our plans set out in our Five-Year Strategic Plan to create a new fundraising team to help us diversify and increase our income by recruiting an Individual Giving and Digital Fundraiser in June 2021.
This year we focused our efforts on widening our donor base and were successful in securing funds from new trusts and foundations. One such success was securing funding from The Postcode Neighbourhood Trust for the first time. They awarded us £20,000 to support our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project in Liverpool.
In October 2021, we had our first ever runner take part in the London Marathon, completing the race in 4 hours and 52 minutes! Paul raised an amazing total of nearly £2,000 to support our work.
In December 2021, we ran our most successful Big Give matched funding campaign to date, raising over £60,000. We’re grateful to The Patrick and Helena Frost Foundation for being our pledge funder, helping us get the campaign off the ground and to The Childhood Trust for choosing to be our champion funder again.
We have some exciting plans in place for 2022-23 that will help us continue to diversify our funding even further to ensure our income is sustainable.

How Rose Vouchers help Daisy's family
"The Rose Vouchers have been a huge help. I’ve always worked, never been on benefits and didn’t know where to ask for help."
“My daughter was one year old when we saw the Health Visitor. We were in lockdown, and I was having some troublesome times while finding it really stressful on universal credit. She signed me up to get Healthy Start vouchers and a family support group who told me about Rose Vouchers.
The Rose Vouchers have been a huge help. I’ve always worked, never been on benefits and didn’t know where to ask for help. With Rose Vouchers and Healthy Start vouchers combined, I have around £30 a month that I can spend on fruit and veg.
I spend roughly £12-15 at the market for a full fruit and veg shop every two weeks. There’s lots of choice at the market and quite a few market stalls where I can use the Rose Vouchers. There’s one stall where I can use Healthy Start and Rose Vouchers, so I usually go to him.
I’m a very strict planner. I have to budget very well. I can get fresh fruit and veg that my daughter likes with the vouchers, like oranges and grapes. I can buy blueberries for my daughter to try, and even if she doesn’t eat them, it’s not wasted money as it’s not coming out of my budget.
I’ve recently bought a Pinch of Nom cookbook as a treat to myself. I’ve never used courgettes and spinach before, carrots, onions mushrooms are what I’m used to, but now I can buy a lot more and try new things. Cooking is my escape now."

Campaigns & Advocacy
This year we have continued to work with our partners to campaign on issues that affect the families we support.
Our primary campaign involvement has been supporting the call to fix the ongoing issues with the digitisation of the Healthy Start voucher scheme.
The uptake of Healthy Start vouchers has traditionally been low. Our partners, Sustain, estimate that £63.5 million worth of vouchers went unclaimed in 2021 alone.
Historically Healthy Start vouchers were available as paper vouchers, sent to each family by post. In October 2021 process began to digitise the Healthy Start scheme. Almost immediately, many families reported experiencing serious issues with applying for the Healthy Start digital cards, as well as problems with using the cards in-store and accessing the helpline.
At Alexandra Rose Charity, we encourage the families who receive Rose Vouchers to also sign up for the government’s Healthy Start scheme if they are eligible. We also promote the scheme to market traders, helping them sign up to accept Healthy Start vouchers as payment for fruit and veg.
The Healthy Start scheme offers vouchers worth £4.25 per week to pregnant women and children (0-4 years) from families on low incomes, as well as to all pregnant women under the age of 18. Vouchers can be used to purchase fruit, vegetables, milk and infant formula.
Sustain, The Food Foundation, Alexandra Rose Charity and other organisations are asking the government to:
- Publish uptake data, as well as the number of rejections and a progress report Immediately investigate and resolve the technical errors Move the Healthy Start call lines to free 0800 numbers Commit to a £5 million promotional campaign Enable online payments using Healthy Start cards Extend the scheme to all families in receipt of Universal Credit
The campaign is ongoing.

We spoke to Marsha, a mum from Southwark, at the end of March 2022, when the paper vouchers for Healthy Start switched to the digital card.
"I was expecting it to be an easy transition to the digital Healthy Start card for me as it was for my friend. I submitted my form in time but got a letter saying my claim has been refused. My situation hasn’t changed, so I don’t know why my claim is being refused.
I was asked to send evidence of my daughter’s birth certificate and universal credit status, which I did. That was three weeks ago, and I still haven’t heard anything.
It’s very stressful, we got our last paper vouchers for April. Without my digital card, I can’t get enough food. There’s no one to talk to. The phone line is awful, they send you round and round the houses, who do I talk to? If you call at 9am you get a message saying there are too many people on the line and to call back later. You have to literally call at 8am to get through, which is not realistic for most parents as you’re trying to get out the door for the school run.
It's so expensive to call, I was waiting 40 minutes the other day. I’ve tried emailing too but have not heard anything back.
It’s really stressful not knowing why my claim has been refused, I’m not being given any information about what’s going wrong. There’s no reassurance that anything is getting through. I don’t know what to do."

Partnerships
We have continued to develop great corporate relationships this year.
David Austin Roses chose us as one of three health-based charities this year to receive donations through the sale of three of their beautiful roses; the Generous Gardener (Ausdrawn), Princess Alexandra of Kent (Ausmerchant) and the new Nye Bevan (Auspital) rose.
The sale of these roses, as part of their Planting Positivity campaign, raised an amazing £100,000 which was split between Alexandra Rose Charity, the National Garden Scheme and NHS Charities Together.
We received support from Stop Hunger for the third time, with another generous donation of £5,000. Stop Hunger is now a worldwide Sodexo initiative active in more than 40 countries. Thank you to all Sodexo employees who fundraise and volunteer tirelessly for the Foundation and make gifts like this one possible.
Our Christmas Big Give 2021 matched funding campaign, which raised funds for a new Rose Vouchers for Fruit and Veg Project in Tower Hamlets, was well supported by our corporate supporters. We received major gifts from The Artemis Charitable Foundation and The Clifford Chance Foundation, as well as donations from Riverford and The Russell Partnership who also kindly helped promote the campaign on social media.

Trustee statement
The Trustees (who are also the Directors of Alexandra Rose Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the Financial Statements in
accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare Financial Statements for each financial year, giving a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:-
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
