REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
The Trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act, present their annual report and the audited financial statements for the financial year ending 31st March 2022.
The Financial Statements of the Charitable Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with 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 1st January 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006.
STRUCTURE AND GOVERNANCE
Restore is a charity and a company limited by guarantee and owned by its Friends. Its Memorandum and Articles of Association stipulate how it is to be managed. There are no particular restrictions imposed apart from the need to carry out only the charity's stated activities and to properly conduct its affairs as a charity. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Governing Body is the Board of Trustees. The Board appoints the Chief Executive Officer, who leads the Executive Team and staff. The Board reviews the salary scales of staff.
Trustees seek to recruit new Trustees with a wide range of skills and backgrounds. Trustees are elected by the Friends at the Annual General Meeting. The Trustee induction process includes the provision and funding of appropriate training (including meeting skills, mental health awareness, and other subjects as appropriate). All trustees are provided with the opportunity to review their skills and access training as needed.
The Trustees meet at least four times a year to oversee the management of the charity. They have four permanent sub-committees: Finance, Quality & Performance, Human Resources and External Relations. The Board and Committees meet quarterly as a minimum to assist the Executive Group. Task groups are established from time to time as required by specific work.
Trustees who served during the year were follows:
Samantha Mostyn (Chair 23 November 2021) (Chair of External Relations subcommittee) Godfrey Cole (Company Secretary) (Chair of Finance sub-committee) (John) Stuart Haigh (Treasurer) David Thurston Jon Turpin (Chair of Quality and Performance sub-committee) David Wells (Chair of Human Resources sub-committee) Bob Wilkes (Chair until 23 November 2021)

OBJECTIVES AND PROGRAMMES
Restore is an Oxfordshire-based mental health charity which supports people to take control of their recovery, develop skills and lead meaningful lives. To this end, Restore offers recovery groups, employment coaching and education and training.
Restore is a member of The Oxfordshire Mental Health Partnership (OMHP) which is a partnership that formally brings together six local mental health organisations from the NHS and the charity sector: Connection Floating Support, Elmore Community Services, Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, Oxfordshire Mind, Response and Restore. Restore has signed up to working much more closely with our partners and with people who have mental health problems to make it easier for people to get the best possible support when they need it.
OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES
Recovery
Our services are based on the belief that people can recover from the effect of mental illness on their lives. We aim to support people in this recovery by addressing their individual needs, focusing on strengths and skills, enabling them to learn to recover from and learn to live with mental health problems and providing opportunities to participate in rehabilitation, training and employment.
Inclusion
We believe that people with mental health problems have the right to work and the right to the support they need to become and remain employed.
Quality
We believe in recording our impact, monitoring our provision, developing our performance, and improving our practice. We review what we do and encourage a focus on continuous improvement in our services. We are committed to professional integrity, objectivity, fairness and ethical business practices.
Co-operation and partnership
Our services are part of a wider health economy in Oxfordshire. We are not the sole solution for the people who use our services, and we are committed to working with other organisations to
improve, develop, and expand our services for people with mental health problems in Oxfordshire.
Equality & Diversity
For everyone Equality & Diversity has been high on the agenda in 2021 -2022. For Restore, equality diversity and inclusion is about more than just meeting our statutory requirements, it is fundamental to delivering our services and building the confidence of all the communities we serve. Our focus moving forward is on engagement, dialogue and collaboration and strengthening our ties with diverse communities in Oxford, not only through the Ripple Project but also through The Recovery College and the Innovations project.

PROGRAMMES
Recovery groups provide people with the opportunity to come together in a group and work
on their journey of recovery together. They use practical tasks (such as gardening, woodwork, catering, art and crafts) to make this possible.
Recovery groups are supported by a mix of paid staff, trained volunteers and group members. The Oxfordshire Recovery Service comprises eight recovery groups and some shared services. We provide recovery groups in five locations, and subcontract delivery at two others. The Recovery groups are The Beehive Recovery Group, Bridewell Recovery Group (sub contracted), Elder Stubbs Recovery Group, Garden Café Recovery Group, the Littlemore Recovery Group, The Orchard Recovery Group, Root and Branch Recovery Group (sub contracted), and Fleet Meadow Recovery Group. A ninth recovery group is being developed: The Compass Recovery Group. This will be delivered digitally and is designed to reach people who find it difficult to access services in-person.
Coaching is one to one support aimed at enabling the person supported to do something specific. All our coaching services are integrated into other clinical teams as this enables coaches to focus on supporting the client in their return to work. Coaching consists of a meeting and an initial discussion with the client. This is followed by ongoing one to one support aimed at the person getting open paid employment or returning to work. This work continued remotely throughout both COVID-19 lockdowns.
IPS is a service to enable people with complex mental health problems to be able to enjoy a good quality of life, reduce health inequalities, remain independent and in control, achieve paid employment, and support each individual’s recovery .
Oxfordshire Recovery College (ORC) is an integral part of Restore, which Restore leads on behalf of the OMHP. ORC takes an educational approach to recovery from mental health challenges. We offer a wide range of courses and workshops on mental health themes such as Understanding Depression, Introduction to Mindfulness, and Creative Writing. Our courses are free for service users, carers, family and friends across Oxfordshire, as well as mental health professionals, and we all learn together as equals. We offer both online and "in person" courses at venues across Oxfordshire.
Our key value is co-production. All aspects of ORC, from the subject and content of courses, to the marketing and publicity, to the delivery of sessions, is co-produced and co-delivered by Experts of Experience (experience of mental illness) and Experts by Training (professionals) that collaborate together in an equal partnership in order to improve the support and services that those affected by mental ill health need.
Our students report that what they find most useful about our courses is a sense of connection with other students and tutors, and the realisation that others struggle with their mental health too but have found strategies to cope.

REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FOR OXFORDSHIRE RE-EMPLOYMENT LIMITED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Since the Pandemic began we have launched our courses online and found students responded well and found this way of learning useful. We now offer both online and in person options for most of our courses and will continue to do so.
Recovery Innovations Project (Compass)
Compass recovery group offers online opportunities to socialise, learn new skills, find out about Restore’s mental health services and have some fun with others in a shared setting. The online recovery group runs on a rolling seven-week session basis. Members will attend one session per week.
Mental Health First Aid/Working with Mental Health. We provide Mental Health First Aid Training and tailored Working with Mental Health sessions. Both courses are currently available face to face and on online. All trainers have had to undertake training to learn how to deliver MHFA successfully online.
REVIEW OF THE YEAR
Given the continuing uncertainty caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the budget for 2021/22 was deliberately cautious. The initial wave of COVID-19 grants was tailing off and the impact on Trusts and Foundations caused by both an increase in demand and a reduction in investment income had resulted in a tangible effect on Restore’s income from this source. Feedback from other areas of the charitable sector demonstrate that Restore was not alone in experiencing these issues.
Trustees, staff and volunteers worked hard during the year to manoeuvre past such obstacles and continue to develop and build on the solid foundations created over Restore’s 44-year journey.
Operationally – COVID-19 restrictions continued throughout the period in terms of face coverings, social distancing and the self-isolation requirements. This resulted in a continued reduction in numbers attending Restore’s services in person due to social distancing requirements within group settings and ongoing anxiety by participants resulting in non-attendance. This was tackled in a number of ways: the development of the digitally delivered Compass Recovery Group for people unable to attend in person; ongoing digital delivery of a range of courses by the Oxfordshire Recovery College (as well as in-person courses); ongoing digital delivery of Mental Health First Aid courses (as well as the re-introduction of in-person training). Work to combat the understandable anxieties caused by the pandemic is ongoing.
The year saw some excellent results from Restore’s recovery groups, in terms of members moving on successfully into volunteering, employment or other meaningful activity. This is part of a healthy consolidation of policy towards establishing a more structured two-year programme within groups, encouraging personal goal setting and aspirational planning from the outset.
We have been thrilled to welcome so many new volunteers to Restore during the year, as well as welcoming back those who had been unable to come during the pandemic.
7
REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FOR OXFORDSHIRE RE-EMPLOYMENT LIMITED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Financially: Trustees and senior staff continued to review the budget regularly through the year. There has been a steady increase in income and some savings in expenditure over the first few months of the financial year. This was helped by a steady growth in sales from Restore’s shops, cafes and training products once COVID-19 restrictions started to lift. As a result, Trustees felt able to approve a small salary increase for staff, backdated to the start of the financial year. This included the implementation of a plan to build in a system of small salary increments to recognise length of service. This had been held over from the previous year and broadly welcomed by staff.
Total income and endowments has decreased by 3.1% to £1,956,843 (2021: £2,019,329). Expenditure has increased by 8.6% on the previous year at £1,915,255 compared to £1,763,016 the previous year. The surplus for the year was £36,926 compared to £252,519 last year.
Grants receivable which includes income from Oxford Health (OH) have increased from £1,478,916 last year to £1,498,145.
Our principal funder source during the year was OH the NHS Provider Trust that acts as a conduit for the statutory funding of mental health services in Oxfordshire. The current contract with OH commenced in September 2015 for a minimum 5-year period, this was extended taking it to end of March 2023. An uplift for inflation was included in the contract extension for each successive financial year. We have also had support from a variety of other organisations, individuals and grant providers.
Reserves
As at 31 March 2022 the level of Unrestricted Funds (including designated funds) stood at £1,305,649 (2021: £1,269,011). This represents approximately 7.5 months of our normal running costs based upon budgeted costs for the year to 31 March 2023. As at 31 March 2022, within total unrestricted funds the level of free funds was £590,690 (2021: £554,284). The Trustees believe that reserves are now at a level appropriate to cover expenditure.
Investments
Currently the investment in the Schroder’s Charity Fixed Interest Fund is valued at £81,451.
Covid, the cost of living and the war in Ukraine has had a detrimental effect on the vast majority of investments throughout the year. The reduction of our investment by 5.4% is not considered to be material. As a result of this we are not considering changing our investment policy.
Beneficiaries
We worked with 489 (2021:502) people, providing 764 (2021: 1,535) individual support sessions and 723 (2021:529) MHFA training courses to individuals. We supported 29 (2021:37) people to get paid work, 4 (2021:9) people to keep their jobs and 31 (2021:36) people to start volunteering or to undertake work placements. In the academic year 21/22 (September 21 to July 22) Oxfordshire Recovery College delivered 286 courses, 146 of which were in person and 140 online. We delivered courses in Oxford, Witney, Didcot, Banbury and Berinsfield. There have been 2022
8
REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR
student attendances (this includes many individual students attending multiple courses). 302 new students have enrolled with the College over the year (around 6 every week).
In addition to offering courses to students we have delivered a variety of trainings in facilitation skills, including Tutor Training within the partnership Forensic Recovery College, Tutor Training for OMHP staff and two 12-hour training courses for Oxfordshire Mind staff. We have also coproduced a new course for Under 25s in collaboration with the Mental Wealth Academy.
Staff
The number of full time equivalent staff employed by Restore has increased during the year, principally due to the IPS contract, Recovery Innovations Project (Compass) and growth of MHFA.
Volunteers
This year Volunteers hours increased to 7,687 (1,780 2021) across Restore as the service returned gradually to a face to face presentation as Covid restrictions were lifted. Volunteers contribute to all aspects and activities of Restore and their support is invaluable and greatly appreciated. Volunteering numbers exclude the voluntary support of trustees to our work.
Members are still being supported to become volunteers where the move is beneficial to both the individual and Restore.
The Annual Review will be published separately in November 2022.
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
RESTORE continually accesses risk and develops plans to address them. In the context of RESTORE there are five main areas of risk:
-
Planning and strategic risks
-
Health and Safety risk management
-
Risks in association to the mental health of people using our services
-
Financial risk of the impact of inflation
-
Financial risk of the non-renewal of the OMHP contract (Currently ends March 2023 with active discussions towards the award of a new contract ongoing)
Each identified risk is given a score for the consequences and the likelihood of the risk which enables RESTORE to assess the overall risk and appropriately prioritise action. These risks are regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive and the Chair of Trustees and reported to the Board.

REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR
PUBLIC BENEFIT
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit in reviewing the activities of the charity. They ensure the activities of RESTORE meet the requirement for public benefit.
FUTURE PLANS
Strategic planning is an iterative process for Restore. Based on Restore’s Theory of Change, Trustees and staff base planning on a clear set of priorities for the organisation. The impacts Restore sets out to achieve focus on improving the mental health and wellbeing of adults across Oxfordshire as well as challenging stigma and influencing policy that affects mental health. Restore’s Strategic Plan is reviewed annually and objectives set, projecting forward 3 years at a time. The current Strategic Plan runs until 2025 .
Key priorities for the forthcoming financial year:
-
Continue to work with Oxford Health, our third sector partners in the Oxfordshire Mental Health Partnership and with local health commissioners towards the recommissioning of the Outcomes Based Contract (which expires at the end of March 2023). This process has been complicated by significant changes within NHS and local authority commissioning structures
-
Build on the introduction of a new data management system at Restore, work to refine the detail of demonstrating impact
-
Grow and develop digital methods for mental health support and training
-
Develop ongoing projects to reach further into diverse communities, aspiring to reflect the diversity of communities within all parts of Restore
-
Move forward with plans for new premises at Restore’s South Oxfordshire site in Didcot

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF A CHARITABLE COMPANY
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Rehabilitation Services Trust for Oxfordshire Re-employment for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Summary Income and Expenditure account, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows, and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended.
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
14
REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees' Report, which includes the Directors’ Report prepared for the purposes of company law for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Directors’ Report included within the Trustees’ Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors’ Report included within the Trustees’ Report.

-
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us;
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns;
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made;
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
15
REHABILITATION SERVICES TRUST FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 11, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims.
-
Enquiry of the charity's staff in tax and compliance functions to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
-
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website
at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
