Voluntary Action Swindon

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 1 January 2019).

The Board is pleased to report that the charity continued to deliver a good quality service to our stakeholders during 2020/21 making the best use of limited funding and resources.

Staff, Volunteers and Trustees worked well together to deliver a challenging and diverse set of objectives and I would like to extend my thanks to everyone for the part they each played in our successful delivery.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The charity's object and its principal activity continues to be that of promoting any charitable purpose for the benefit of the community in the Borough of Swindon.

As the Council for Voluntary Services in Swindon we achieve this through providing funding and governance advice; training and other support services, being the voice for the Swindon Voluntary sector on several platforms as well as encouraging collaboration within the Voluntary Sector and with statutory service. We also support Swindon Borough Council in delivery of its equality commitments, providing scrutiny and ensuring that the equality voice of the Swindon community has a platform.

Since April 2019 we have also delivered the Swindon Shopmobility Service helping people with mobility issues to continue to access town centre shops and facilities independently.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Public benefit

Voluntary Action Swindon delivers public benefit indirectly by helping the broad range of charities and other voluntary organisations within the Borough of Swindon. Our range of services help to inform these charities, build their capacity and maximise their resources to deliver their valuable services within the community.

Over the year we have dealt with 105 requests for funding support and pro-actively signposted regular funding opportunities to the sector. We have built positive relationships with the National Lottery and Wiltshire Community Foundation with both organisations joining our Voluntary sector network to provide advice on funding opportunities. We also assisted Swindon Borough Council in signposting local charities involved in the provision of food to help allocate some of the COVID emergency food grant. We also supported local charities with over 100 queries on a wide range of issues including governance, networking and COVID-19 compliance.

We continued to deliver our work to support the equality agenda in Swindon through leading the Swindon Equality Coalition (SEC) which was re-launched in July 2020 with a new core group of 11 people which grew to 23 by October 2020 with additional representation from the LGBTQ+ and BAME communities and Victim Support.

Through effective management of the Sanford House Community Hub, we have been able to encourage collaboration between the eleven charity tenants and use the space for convening and education. Managing a multi tenanted building that is usually open to the public in a COVID secure way during a global pandemic has presented a significant challenge but we feel we have delivered a strong service both to SBC and the tenants, ensuring appropriate Health and Safety and risk management and COVID secure processes and behaviours across the building. During the first national lock down in the early part of 2020, to maximise the opportunity of the building being empty, we were able to bring forward the completion of internal refurbishment and decoration work using the accumulated re-investment fund.

VAS has continued to provide a voice for the Swindon local Voluntary Sector at a variety of key boards and forums.

In terms of our contribution to the Swindon response to COVID-19 we:

As well as supporting the local Voluntary Sector with funding advice we also experienced a loss in rent, room hire, training, car parking and Shopmobility trading income. We were grateful for the emergency COVID grant support we received from the National Lottery Fund and the Wiltshire Community Foundation which helped to mitigate the impact of this.

With grant funding from the Good Things Foundation, we also established the only Census 2021 support centre in Swindon between March and early May 2021.

It has been a busy and challenging year but one where the experienced and dedicated VAS team has been proud to support Swindon at a time when it has never been more needed.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

From its premises at 1 John Street and through its landlord responsibilities for Sanford House Community Hub, Voluntary Action Swindon provides a wide range of services to voluntary and community organisations in the Borough of Swindon. These include:

Between April 2020 and March 2021 we :

Represented the Voluntary Sector at a wide range of meeting and forums:

We also lead a Swindon Voluntary Sector response to the current Green Paper consultation over proposed changes to the Public Procurement System and developed and led a Community Engagement Panel to support the Swindon Towns Fund bid helping to secure an investment of over £19 million for Swindon Town Centre Development.

We also led on a range of initiatives as part of a Swindon wide response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Investment policy and objectives

The investment policy and objectives agreed with the Board is to minimise risk by spreading the investment of reserves to maximise the protection through the Financial Services Compensation Scheme protecting the first £85,000 of any savings. Also, to maximise return whilst ensuring available cash flow to meet liabilities and to be able to respond to emergency building repair issues.

Reserves policy

Operational Reserve

The majority of VAS’s income comes from the local authority supplemented by trading income through room hire, car park space rental, training and Shopmobility custom. Should circumstances in the future mean that this income reduces or is impacted, VAS would have to seek new funding sources at a sufficient level to enable it to continue to deliver its charitable aims. The Trustees feel it is necessary to keep a minimum of six months and ideally twelve months operations costs in reserve as well as financial provision to cover any necessary restructuring if necessary. Current reserves for this are held at £130,000 .

Property Maintenance Fund

The Trustees recognise the age of 1 John Street and its deteriorating infrastructure where the majority of the VAS team and some tenants are based. They feel that it is appropriate to hold some reserve in anticipation of urgent repair on the building (in particular in anticipation of significant repair to or replacement of the flat roof) and the cost of temporary facilities should the repair work render the current office environment uninhabitable during renovation to ensure continuity of service. Current reserves held for this are £60,000

New Property Fund

In the longer term, given that 1 John Street is in area earmarked for redevelopment, any sale and purchase of new premises will require legal and surveyor costs and the Trustees have decided to provision £25,000 for this to ensure continuity of service.

FUTURE PLANS

Some of our immediate objectives for the next year include:

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

Voluntary Action Swindon is a charitable company, limited by guarantee. The charitable company was established under Memorandum of Association, which sets out the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The focus of the organisation's work is providing advice and general support to voluntary organisations within the Borough of Swindon. The aim is to ensure that the needs of this group are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustee body, and to enhance the potential pool of trustees, the charity continually seeks to identify potential new trustees relevant to the nature of its work and to improve the diversity of the Board.

Business, social care and charity skills are well represented on the Board. In an effort to maintain a broad mix, members are requested to provide an outline of their skills and, in the event of particular skills being lost due to retirements these are targeted through recruitment,

Organisational structure

Members support the aims of the organisation and are invited to the Annual General Meeting. Members elect the trustees and these individuals are also company directors. The members of the Board are elected to serve for a period of three years after which the must be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting. In the event of the charitable company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

Voluntary Action Swindon can have a Board of up to 12 members who meet on a regular basis and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present there are 9 members of the Board from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity. The CEO also attends Board meetings but has no voting rights.

The Board operates two sub committees, one focussing on Finance and HR issues the other on Facilities Management and Health and Safety. Both committees and the CEO work to an agreed delegation document.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Voluntary Action Swindon

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Voluntary Action Swindon ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.
