## **Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity** 

## **known as Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

## **Trustees' Report** 

When recruited, new trustees receive an induction pack (online and on paper) including governing documents, annual report, recent minutes, and guidance from the Charity Commission and other bodies; including about the responsibilities of charity trustees. Further induction and training take place in person with the Chair and others as appropriate. 

New trustees also certify that they are not excluded from acting as trustees, and complete a declaration of interest form. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

The Mountsorrel Community Support Fund (MCSF) makes grants to provide relief to persons resident in Mountsorrel parish who are in need, hardship or distress. 

Applications are accepted from individuals and organisations. Opportunities to apply for a grant are advertised around the village, and promoted to potential referrers. In this way the charity's purposes are for the benefit of the general public. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in setting grantmaking policy for the year. 

Grants are made for a wide range of items and services (details below). 

## **Charity of Hugh Phipps** 

The charity has its own small, named investment portfolio, held with Brewin Dolphin and managed alongside the Mountsorrel United Charities portfolio. 

The Charity of Hugh Phipps makes grants to individuals for the “relief of poor non-conformists” resident in the parishes of Mountsorrel, Thurcaston and Swithland. Trustees take "non-conformists" to be members of a protestant church that dissents from the established Church of England. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

Over the year the usual work of the MCSF continued, in line with the strategic plan adopted in September 2019, with the following vision, mission, values and objectives: 

●Vision - To remove poverty, hardship and distress in Mountsorrel. 

●Mission - To be a “safety net”, providing items and services to Mountsorrel residents when they are most in need. 

●Values - We are empathetic, caring and considerate. We are respectful and non-judgemental. 

●Objective 1 - Develop our finances and governance, increasing income and expenditure, and acting within the law. 

●Objective 2 - Develop our grantmaking, ensuring we make effective grants to those most in need. 

●Objective 3 - Develop our publicity, making sure we reach those most in need.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Impact of Covid-19** 

For much of the year: 

- ●Trustees continued to conduct virtual meetings using the Zoom application 

●Visits to applicants’ homes could not be made in the usual way, which made it difficult to gather full and accurate information about needs and circumstances 

Attendance at meetings throughout the year 

- ●The MCSF Coordinator attended meetings of Charnwood Food Poverty Group 

●The MCSF Coordinator and a nominated trustee attended the Association of Charitable Organisations Grant Making Forum meetings 

## **Grants to individuals** 

In 2021 the trustees considered 161 applications and made 142 grants to individuals in need (compared to 128 applications and 106 grants in 2020), amounting to £82,282 (2020 - £98,468). 

Positive impact 

The Coordinator and trustees received unsolicited feedback from applicants throughout the year via text, voicemail, email and handwritten cards, some examples of which are shown below: 

●Beds - “The beds are here! I want to thank the charity so much. Me and my son can now have a good nights’ sleep.” 

●Fencing - “We now have our fence put up and are feeling much safer and would like to thank you and the charity very much.” 

●Financial support - “Many thanks for the amazing support you have given me during a very difficult time. It has been gratefully received and once again, many thanks.” 

●Funeral payment - “Thank you so much for your help and understanding, it means a lot. Without you and the charity I’m not sure what we’d have done.” 

●Stairlift - “I just wanted to say again a massive thank you to you and everyone at the charity. You really have no idea how much the stairlift means to both me and mum, she can finally have some sort of life beyond these four walls. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” 

## **Grants to organisations** 

All grants to organisations are reviewed on an annual basis. 

a) The Age UK day centre (which was providing a reduced service as a result of Covid-19) was funded for the first six months of 2021 to the end of the contract at a cost of £234.48 per month (total £1,406.88) 

b) After a long break due to Covid-19 lockdown restrictions, MALE, the Meet at Lunch and Eat group (which brought together single, isolated young men for support) resumed between June and September, but unfortunately the group folded due to low attendance (total £935) 

c) Trustees approved increased funding of £9,458 (£7,104 in 2020) to The Bridge to enable support provided by the previously funded community fridge based in Mountsorrel and run by Charnwood Food Poverty Action Group to be enhanced in the form of a new social supermarket, known as Your Store. The last community fridge session was held in December, after which clients were encouraged to register for a Your Store membership

## **In March:** 

●Mountsorrel Community Support Fund was adopted as the new working name for Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity, following a consultation survey to which 192 responses were received - including many responses from grantees 

●The health and safety policy was reviewed, and a new procedure and waiver for conducting visits during the Covid-19 pandemic were introduced 

- ●A new bank account was opened 

●A new decorator was appointed to the list of preferred suppliers 

## **In April:**

●In addition to the new logo and branding, work began on a new website 

## **In September:** 

●Trustees wrote to local MPs to highlight their concerns about the ending of the Universal Credit Covid-19 uplift 

## **In October:** 

●A publicity drive was undertaken to ensure every household in the village received a flyer about the work of the charity, new posters were displayed in a wide range of locations, and the new website and new social media sites were launched 

●To assist with decision making, a review of information presented to trustees on the likely cost of each application was undertaken, resulting in changes to the information presented at meetings 

## **In December:** 

●A feature and advertisement about the charity were published in the Mountsorrel Post 

●Trustees considered and accepted a revised and fully updated governance cycle 

## **Charity of Hugh Phipps** 

Previously, trustees have made small grants every two years to members of Mountsorrel Methodist Church who are facing hard times. However, no grants were made in either 2020 or 2021. (In 2019, £680 was distributed to 17 individuals (£730 including administration costs)). 

In September, trustees considered a number of options for the future administration of the above grants, but concluded that the Charity of Hugh Phipps is no longer fit for purpose and therefore decided to seek legal advice with a potential view to dissolution.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

Mountsorrel Community Support Fund does not hold any assets. These are instead held by Mountsorrel United Charities. 

The following statements on investments apply to the Charity of Hugh Phipps. 

## **Investments** 

The trustees have reviewed their investment performance against other investments, e.g. fixed interest, UK and international equities, alternatives, and cash. 

The trustees, under the Trustee Act 2000, have a statutory duty of care. It applies to: 

- ●Exercise of their power of investment 

- ●Obligation to review the investments 

- ●Obligation to review any arrangements with an agent nominee or custodian 

Under the Act the trustees exercise such care and skill as is reasonable in the circumstances, having regard to: 

- ●Any special knowledge or experience that the trustees have or claim to have. Where any trustee is acting as such in the course of a business or profession, regard must be had to any special knowledge or experience that it is reasonable to expect of a person acting in the course of that kind of business or profession 

- ●The suitability of the investment being selected or reviewed for the organisation 

- ●The need to diversify the charity’s investments 

The Trustees will take proper advice unless they reasonably conclude it is unnecessary or inappropriate to do so. 

They will also follow the standard investment criteria and consider: 

- ●The suitability of the investment being selected or reviewed for the organisation 

- ●The need to diversify the charity's investments 

## **Delegating powers** 

The trustees continue to delegate powers to Brewin Dolphin to manage funds on a discretionary basis. 

## **Investment objective** 

In July 2020 trustees agreed to increase the level of risk to which the Charity of Hugh Phipps investments held with Brewin Dolphin are exposed. This brought about a move from Brewin Dolphin Risk Category 4 (lower risk) to Risk Category 6 (medium to high risk) with a continued focus on income generation. 

The trustees will consider the charity’s needs and those of its beneficiaries in the short, medium and long term on the above basis. 

## **Bank deposits** 

Short term bank deposits are maintained at a level to fund the day to day operations of the charity.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Reserves policy** 

The trustees have considered the level of reserves held by the charity as at 31 December 2021. 

Reserves are required to enable the charity to maintain its current activities and to meet its long term aims. It is the policy of the charity to maintain funds that are free reserves, at a level that equates to approximately one year’s unrestricted management, administration and support costs. Free reserves are the part of a charity’s unrestricted funds that are freely available to spend on any of the charity’s purposes. 

In determining the target level of reserves, the trustees have reviewed the risks faced both short and medium term to ensure the charity will continue to operate on a going concern basis. 

The trustees will keep the level of reserves in check by reviewing it alongside their quarterly review of management accounts. 

The reserves policy will be reviewed from time to time in line with the governance cycle. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have examined the major strategic business and operational risks that the charities face. Systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

## **Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

In 2022, trustees will: 

- ●Continue to respond to the Covid-19 global pandemic as best they can for relevant Mountsorrel residents 

- ●Continue to publicise the charity in the village, in order that those most in need are able to apply 

- ●Adopt a statement on equality, diversity and inclusion with a view to increasing diversity and inclusion in our work (adopted January 2022) 

- ●Develop a risk register 

- ●Adopt a revised reserves policy (adopted January 2022) 

- ●Invite applications from relevant organisations to provide services to older Mountsorrel residents 

## **Charity of Hugh Phipps** 

In 2022 the Trustees will seek legal advice with a potential view to dissolution.

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities requires the trustees 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 the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees 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.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity for the year ended 31 December 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the Charity trustees of Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity 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 Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity'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 giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity 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 accounting 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.

## **Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity** 

## **known as Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The Charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Income and endowments** 

## _**Investment income**_ 

Investments are held by Mountsorrel United Charities (MUC) and Mountsorrel Relief in Need Fund receives 1/3 of that income, net of costs. The income is recognised once it has been declared by MUC. 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. 

## _**Raising funds**_ 

These are costs incurred in the management of investments. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## _**Grant provisions**_ 

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable.

## **Mountsorrel Relief in Need Charity** 

## **known as Mountsorrel Community Support Fund** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **Governance costs** 

These include the costs attributable to the Charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses. 

## **Taxation** 

The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the Charity. 

## **Financial instruments** 

## _**Classification**_ 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Charity after deducting all of its liabilities. 

## _**Recognition and measurement**_ 

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs). 

## _**Investments**_ 

Investments in non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary or preference shares (where shares are publicly traded or their fair value is reliably measurable) are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
