COLLABORATION - Working togeiher to achieve more.
EMPOWERMENT - Co-creating opportunities for positive change.
Empowerment in particular sits at the very heart of everything the Renewal Programme strives to
achieve. Our definition of empowerment is borne out of positive relationships, it is not something
thai can be forced or demanded. We believe that empowerment is about helping people to feel
confident in their abilities and encouraged by their circumstances to the extent that they feel
motivated to work on their desired goal or purpose.

If ever there was a time ro step-up and support the Newham community. 2021-2022 has been
that year. Like many organi5ations operating in the wake of the pandemic we continued to
experience service disruptions due to the turbulent effects of covid-19. We are however very
proud to report that we continued to deliver all. and indeed grow some of our services throughout
the pandemic. The pandemic has seen changes to the way many of our services are delivered,
however we feel this has put us in a stronger position as we have developed a more agile and
flexible se￿iCe offering. After the extended lockdown periods at the onset of the pandemic,
2021122 saw the re-opening of many of our face-to-face services, and certainly through the
summer of 2021 we experienced a period of approaching what could be called normality, with all
covid-19 restrictions lifted in July. The rollout of the covid-19 vaccination programme in 2021
also gave us encouragement that there was light at the end of the pandemic tunnel, however this
did not prove to be the case through the winter period. The resurgence of the Covid-19 omicron
varianr towards the end of 2021 led to a further extended period of restrictions and lockdown, and
with Newham continuing ro be in the eye of che covid srorm. together with being one of the lowest
vaccine uptake areas. it continued to be an incredibly difficult time for our communities.
As with our proactive response at the outset of the pandemic. our continued focus through this
financial year was to invest in the needs of our surrounding communities. the evidence of which
can be read in these following pages. A strong aspect of our work was ro play an active role in
ensuring everyone in the community knew how to stay safe and had acces5 to the support
available locally. This included distributing free personal protective equipment. covid-19 lateral
flow tests and advocating for as many staff. volunteers and residents as possible to take up the
vaccine offer. We also continued to administer 3 small micro-grants programme funded by the
local authority to help vulnerable residents self-isolate when impacted by the virus.

In terms of learning through this period. we have found that local organisations and networks at
the fore-front of tangible support for local communities in times of crisis are so important. For
example ihrou9h this covid period we have been able to work alongside and supporE Statutory
authorities to reach deeper into communiries with complex, ever-changing advice and guidance.
not Just on COVID-19 safety, but mental health, money advice, food insecurity and many other
things. The importance of partnership working has been paramount, and we have been able to
strengthen our relationships with many local organisations and statutory providers. We have

worked closely with Newham Council. other voluntary sector organisations, local businesses and
the NHS in ensuring that our services are part of a borough-wide strategic response to the
pandemic. This has included for example our participation with local umbrella organisations
Compost London and One Newham, as well as involvement in a number of strategic themed
collaborations such as Newham Food Alliance and Newham anti-poverty alliance. As a Newham
focussed community organisation of 50 years standing. we feel our deep roots have enabled us to
respond effectively as a trusted and familiar service provider. A significant proportion of our staff
are Newham based, contributing positively 10 the economy and environmental footprint of the
borough.
We have also learnt much about ourselves and OLtr communitie5. During tough times people and
organisations can be resilient we have witnessed this across the board with people responding
with community spirit and incredible generosity in caring for friends. neighbours and strangers.

2021122 was the final full year of our 3 year Lottery funded Carers Health and Empowerment
Project ICHEPI. The project IS Structured to provide in depth training to a small number of carers,
who then cascade this learning and development to wider groups and networks of carers in the
borough. Whilst the knowledge and skill sets of carer learners has undoubtedly increased
significantly through the course of the project. learning to design and deliver workshops
independently has proven to be a larger step for some learners than anticipated, especially given
the disruptive nature of the pandemic. Additional support and one to one coaching was therefore
provided to help participants move fO￿ard positively. Over the course of the year we conducted
16 co-delivery sessions in the following areas-
Advocating for your childlyoung people-
Understanding the Rights of Disabled Children.,
Tips on Resolving Disputes for carers, Understanding the Rlghts of Disabled Chlldren.,
Advocating for disability welfare benefits and Winter wellness workshops-
Despite the challenges mentioned above, we have reached 192 carers wlthln thls period which
placed us close to our target of 200 carers reached per year. Although the lottery funded project Is
drawing to a close. we continue to provide a framework of support for this important group.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Through 2021122 we managed to secure additional covid-related crisis support grants to assist
through this period. albeit on a short term basis in most cases.
Our facility hire income has recovered somewhat in the past year, but IS Still below pre-covid
levels and is further affected in real terms by the increases in running costs such as gas and
electricity.
Through 2021122 we reviewed a number of our outsourced support contract5 Wlth the express
intention to reduce our overhead costs without compromising on quality. This process saw us
change contracts for HR provision. IT and broadband.
Despite the challenging financial times, we are extremely grateful to all our grant funders and
commissioner5 who have taken a supportive and pragmatic approach ro service delivery targets
and outcomes whilst mainraining agreed payments. We have also continued to be supported
financially for part of the year by a combination of the governments coronavirus job retention
scheme. reduced lease rental payments thanks to our landlords the United Reform Church IURCI
and reduced local rares.
We are pleased to report that there ha5 been an increase in total charity funds this year from
£802,238 in 2021 to £889,2 52 in 2022, despite the extreme challenges of covid-19. Our overall
position remains relatively healthy. although the variety of our funding sources needs
strengthening. ReseNe levels are relatively healthy at present and reflect our agreed policy. In ihe
trustees. opinion, sufficient resources are in place or anticipated ro enable the charity to continue
in operation for the foreseeable fuiure.

Our objectives are io obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finaficial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditor'5 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.
Irregularities. including fraud. are instances of non-compliance with law5 and regulations.
We design procedures in line with our re5ponslbllitles, outlined above, to detect material
misstatements in respect of irregu larities, including fraud. The extent to which our
procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below.
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularitles,
including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, oijr procedures included the
following..
We enquired of management and the board of trustees, which included obtaining and
reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity's policies and procedures
relating to..
Identifying, evaluating, and complylng wlth laws and regulatlons and whether they
were aware of any instances of non-compliance.,
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of
any actual. suspected. or alleged fraud..

Independent audltors, report
To the members of
Newham Community Renewal Programme
The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-
compliance with laws and regulations.
We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity
operates in, focusing on (hose laws and regulations that had a material effect on the
financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity
from our professional and sector experience.
We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and
remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We reviewed any reports made to regulators.
We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to 5UPPOrting
documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected
relationships that may indicate risks of material mlsstatement due to fraud.
In addressin9 the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested
the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments. assessed whether the
Judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential blas
and tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal
course of business.
Because of the Inherent Ilmltatlons of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all
irregularities, including those leadlng to a material misstatement in the financial statements
or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law
or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial
statement5. as we will be le55 likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The
risk is als0 greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud
Involves intentional concealment, forgery, colluslon, omlsslon or m15representation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Flnancial Reportlng Council's
website at: vvWw:frc.org￿uk auditorsres
