The Simon Community Company number: 01602161 Trustees’ report and financial statements 31 March 2021
Trustees’ report
Below the trustees present their annual report and the financial statements of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Objectives and activities
The principal object of the charity is the relief of poverty of persons who by reason of mental or physical infirmity are unable to fulfill their duties as citizens or their obligations to their families or to their employers. This objective is put into practice via the following:
-
By establishing, managing and improving houses of hospitality and shelters, clubs, cafes, day or night centers, residential settlements and sheltered workshops or other schemes for homeless and rootless, socially inadequate and mainly unemployable persons and provide them with the care, treatment, security and love to which they are entitled.
-
By providing material relief care and comfort to those people sleeping rough and with no fixed abode.
-
By providing, arranging, paying for or contributing towards the cost of providing board, lodging, meals and medical expenses for the homeless and rootless.
-
By arranging for homeless and rootless people to be placed in suitable employment and by assisting in such manner as the Simon Community sees fit.
Public benefit
The trustees ensure that the activities of the charity are consistent with its charitable objects and aims. In agreeing our annual plans, the trustees take into account public benefit as set out in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit in relation to the prevention and relief of poverty, the advancement of education and health and the relief of those in need. The trustees believe there is clear public benefit derived from the activities of the charity.
Achievements and performance
Chair’s note
Summarized below are the services undertaken during the year ended 31 March 2021:
| Service | Description | Description | No. Guests | Services |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| seen in the | provided in the | |||
| year | year | |||
| Street work | ‐ |
Street Work involves walking along the streets of London at night, | ||
| between 8.30 and 11pm. We go out to offer a cup of tea or coffee and | ||||
| food and spend some time with and talk to people. | ||||
| ‐ | We use this service as a grapevine to get provisions for people who are in | |||
| need. Our regular guests will often alert us to someone who is new or in | ||||
| trouble and we can get them what they need quickly, such as shoes, a | ||||
| coat or a sleeping bag. If we find someone who is very ill prepared, we are able to get word back to the house to get them what they need. |
9,378 |
230 | ||
| ‐ | We aim to develop supportive relationships with those who are | |||
| vulnerable and isolated. | ||||
| ‐ | Meeting people for the first time is a chance to build a rapport with them | |||
| and to try to understand their needs. | ||||
| ‐ | We were able to offer guests an introduction to a covid vaccine | |||
| programme and support them to go to the hub to get vaccinated | ||||
| Residential | ‐ | Our residential project (129 Malden Road) is a truly unique space. Unlike | ||
| Project | any homeless hostel you may have seen before, it is a space for our | |||
| guests to heal through living in community, developing stronger | ||||
| relationships, and supporting people still on the streets. | ||||
| ‐ | Staffed by three full time staff and one live in volunteer, together with the | |||
| resident group, staff and volunteers prepare and deliver outreach | ||||
| services. We support other volunteers on services, some of whom have | ||||
| given years of service to London’s street homeless population. | ||||
| ‐ | From our house hundreds of meals are prepared and distributed to those | |||
| still on the streets each week. | ||||
| ‐ | We offer up to 5 spaces to homeless people who others will not take on, | |||
| as they have complex and deep rooted traumas that do not suit other | ||||
| forms of provision. |

||
|---|---|---|
| ‐ | We give people the time they need to heal, whether that is a few months | |
| or a few years. This is the opposite of a quick fix, but ultimately it will save | ||
| government decades of investment in sticking plaster solutions that do | ||
| not address the trauma of the long‐term street homeless. | ||
| ‐ | During the year two residents were supported with move‐ons into an | |
| independent living situation. A further four guests from the door / street | ||
| work were supported off the streets and into supported accommodation. | ||
| ‐ | During the lock downs (except when we were isolating due to covid) we | |
| were able to provide a door service where homeless guests could come to | ||
| the door for food, clothes, hot drinks and information. | ||
| Visits | ‐ | Once guests or residents move on to alternative accommodation they are |
| supported by the community through visits. This service has been | ||
| invaluable in the year when some members have been required to shield. |

Over the course of the year to March 2021 we delivered 230 services to London’s hardest to reach street‐homeless people. Even though we faced a series of lockdowns and isolations, we didn’t miss any planned services and our regular guests knew when and where we would be, which was vital in a time of such uncertainty. We are a small and compassionate community with a big heart. We continue to strive to deliver the greatest impact for our community.
We have maintained a steady presence throughout the year with our street work outreach. During the pandemic when our capacity diminished so suddenly, we had to change what we were doing, quickly. Whatever we were going to commit to, we had to be sure we could sustain it for as long as the pandemic affected us and be able to keep going with far fewer people.
We made contingency plans for when we got ill or had to isolate. I’m delighted to report that our approach has been successful and that we haven’t missed a service on the street. It is vital at a time of such uncertainty that our guests know that we will be there for them and The Simon Community will always adapt to meet the needs of the hardest to reach rough sleepers.
We are seeing new faces but also people returning to the streets. Sadly, numbers at the moment are at an all‐time high.
Our AGM was delayed due to the ongoing impact of the Covid‐19 pandemic, subsequently held on 7 August 2021. For some it was the first time they were in a group of people since lockdown.
Coming together at the AGM in the way that we have done annually since inception gave the charity the opportunity to mark a chapter in this pandemic. It was brilliant to see everyone and to see the support from all corners of the Community, old members and new. The board is delighted to welcome new members from this year, all of which come together from a diverse range of backgrounds to support and drive the mission of the charity.
Before the pandemic, during a street work walk we would see between 30 and 40 people per night. This August we have regularly seen between 70 and 80 people and our highest number yet of 85 people in a night. We still have enough for everyone we see and will continue to take whatever we can carry.
We want to take a special moment to appreciate all our donors. Thank you for your support particularly during these challenging and difficult times. Your loyalty and commitment to our cause has meant that we can adapt quickly to the changing needs of our guests and continue to provide consistent support.
The charity does not fundraise from on‐the‐street public sources and there were no fundraising complaints received in the year.

The Simon Community Company number: 01602161 Trustees’ report and financial statements 31 March 2021
Trustees’ report (continued) Structure governance and management
The charity is governed by its memorandum and articles of association and is incorporated as a company limited by guarantee. Every member of the Simon Community undertakes to contribute to the assets of the charity in the event the charity is wound up whilst he/she is a member, such sum as may be required not exceeding £1.
Financial Review
Total income for the year is £396k (FY20: £200k) and total expenditure £223k (FY20: £216k), resulting in net income of £173k (FY20: £16k net expenditure). Once again, we are immensely grateful to our donor base who continue to support us including those who leave legacies to us in their death estates which have contributed greatly in recent times to our overall income. Furthermore, the focus from the operational team continues to ensure a manageable cost base.
The trustees acknowledge the increasing pressures on the charitable sector along with the economic impact that covid‐19 is having on the UK, our donors, volunteer base, and the sector. The charity’s cash position was £228k (FY20: £131k) with the increase driven by donations received during the year, offset by expenses and further investments (£30,000).
Investment management
In the previous year ended 31 March 2020 the Trustees established an Investment policy, setting out the investment objectives, attitude to risk, time horizon and ethical policy. In the year investment cash transfers of £30,000 were made (FY20: £400,000). During the year global equity markets largely recovered from the lows in March 2020 after the onset of the pandemic, resulting in an unrealized gain of £47,666 at the financial year‐end (FY20: £31,308 unrealized loss).
Risk management
The trustees continue to monitor the risks to the charity using a risk register. This is reviewed annually, and all trustees are made aware of the risks and their duty to assist in mitigating them.
Going concern
Based on the charity's reserves position and the board’s reasonable expectation that the charity has the resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. We believe there are no material uncertainties that call into doubt the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The accounts have therefore been prepared on the basis that the charity is a going concern.
Reserves
The board of trustees believe that the charity should hold financial reserves because:
-
It has no endowment funding and is entirely dependent for income from year to year on donor funding, which is inevitably subject to fluctuation
-
It requires protection against, and the ability to continue operating in the event of a serious lack of income
-
There is a need to make provision for the development of the community's services
The trustees have a reserves policy which states that the target minimum level of free reserves should be equivalent of six months' unrestricted operating costs (FY20: six), calculated and reviewed annually, which amounts to approximately £100,000 on a pro‐rata basis, based on current cost levels. At the financial year‐end, there was £282k in general funds, as a result of a legacy received towards the end of the financial year. It is expected that these excess funds will be utilized in the normal course of operations in the financial year ended 31 March 2022.
The Charity has designated £270,792 in a fixed asset fund to represent funds tied up in the Simon Community property portfolio and the Community Van used in the provision of services. The Charity has also designated £347,652 in a property fund to cover the future purchase of property and £20,000 for a new website. Whilst it continues to be an ambition of the board to acquire new property, uncertainty following the events of this year as well as in the sector in general have reminded trustees that until such time that the operations of the community have returned to how they were in a pre‐pandemic world, the purchase of new property in the immediate term poses an unnecessary risk to the ongoing functioning of the charity. Work to develop the new website is expected to be completed in the next 18 months.

Structure governance and management (continued)
Board of trustees
The board consists of the Chair, Treasurer and not less than 3 nor more than 12 other persons, all elected by the members. At each Annual General Meeting (AGM), the Chair and Treasurer retire from office and are eligible for re � election. Members are also eligible for election at the AGM. Up to one third of trustees can be drawn from residents or service users. The policy of the charity is that all trustees receive training about their roles and responsibilities as trustees.

Amanda Windle, Chair (Resigned 7 August 2021) Alan Cole Thomas McNally (Resigned 7 August 2021) Alexander Pickering, Treasurer Debra Gerstein (Resigned 19 April 2021)
Organisational structure
The charity is organised so that its trustees meet regularly (a minimum of 8 times per year) to manage its affairs and take strategic decisions on behalf of the charity. The day � to � day running of the Community is delegated to a Community Manager who is supported by a Project Leader, both of whom are full time and report to the board.
Disclosure of information to the auditor
The trustees who held office at the date of approval of this trustees' report confirm that, so far as they are each aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditors are unaware; and each trustee has taken all the steps that he ought to have been taken in their capacity as a director of the company to make himself aware of any relevant audit information.
Auditors
Pursuant to Section 487 of the Companies Act 2006, the auditor will be deemed to be reappointed and Haysmacintyre LLP will therefore continue in office.

The Simon Community Company Number: 01602161 Trustees’ report and financial statements 31 March 2021
Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities in respect of the Trustees’ report and the financial statements
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards and applicable law (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK 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 company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the company and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SIMON COMMUNITY
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of the Simon Community for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise The Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. 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 2021 and of the charitable company’s net movement in funds, including the income and expenditure, 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 charity 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 charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve 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.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ Report 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 have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SIMON COMMUNITY (continued)
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 Trustees’ Report (which incorporates the directors’ report).
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept by the charitable company; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the trustees’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of trustees for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 6, 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 charitable 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 as a whole 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non‐compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Based on our understanding of the charity and the environment in which it operates, we identified that the principal risks of non‐ compliance with laws and regulations related to compliance with regulatory requirements of company law, employment law and health and safety regulations and we considered the extent to which non‐compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act and payroll taxes.
We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to recognition of income and management bias in certain accounting estimates. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
-
Inspecting Trustees’ meeting minutes
-
Inspecting correspondence with regulators and tax authorities;
-
Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non‐compliance with laws and regulation and fraud;
-
Evaluating management’s controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities;
-
Identifying and testing journals, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations, postings by unusual users or with unusual descriptions; and
-
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their critical accounting estimates.
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.

Notes
(forming part of the financial statements)
1. Accounting policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities (SORP 2015) (Second Edition, effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The Simon Community meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
Having considered future plans and cash flows, the trustees confirm that they are not aware of any material uncertainties with regard to the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future and therefore have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis. The Covid‐19 pandemic has not affected the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Estimation uncertainty
In the view of the trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
All assets costing more than £100 are capitalised.
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold Property ‐ 2% straight line Motor Vehicles ‐ 25% straight line Furniture and Fixtures ‐ 20% straight line
Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Notes (continued)
1. Accounting policies (continued)
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes bank accounts, cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Income recognition
Income is included in the SOFA once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. The following specific policies apply to categories of income:
Donations & Grants where related to performance and specific deliverables are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. Where income is received in advance of its recognition it is deferred and included in creditors. Where entitlement occurs before income being received the income is accrued.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
Investment income is credited to income when it is receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred, inclusive of VAT, which cannot be recovered.
Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

Notes (continued)
1. Accounting policies (continued)
Allocation of support and governance costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support costs. Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs. The allocation of support and governance costs is analysed in note 7.
Investments
Investments in financial assets and securities are generally measured and reported at fair value. The initial ‘fair’ value being the original transaction price. Going forward such assets are subsequently carried at the current indicative trading price in the market, which is fair value. Where the asset has a spread the price quoted is the bid‐price. Changes in fair value are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
