ws Ambition Our ambition is an equal and dNerse society. in which individuals Wlth disabilities are actNe citizens in their own right within their communities and supported to be happy and to live life to the full. How we ochieve our ambition We employ exceptional people across communities to enable unique indNiduals to achieve their full potential.

Putting people at the heart Angela O'Neil, Service Engagement Manager at Wa15ingham Support, puts people at the heart of everything we do by embedding person centred active support and its principles within all artNities. including recruitment. Angela told us that SUPPOrting individuals to exercise maximum control over their lives begins with colleagues who are able to genuinely promote participation and that it was cwcial that the individuals we support should have direct input into the recruitment proce5S. Angela trialled this in February 2022 when interviewing for a sUPPOrt worker position. The candidate interviewed well but Angela wanted to see him in action and gather feedback from the residents. She introduced him to Sandra. Jeanie and Maureen who immediately asked questions about his favourite activities, his family and whether he lived in the area. For Angela this was an ideal opportunity to observe engagement between the candidate and the individuals he would potentially be supporting as working from a person-centred active support model require5 interaction that fosters participation. Angela noted hi5 relaxed p05ture. the ease with which he answered questions and how he was received by the residents. When the interyiew had finished, Angela listened to the feedback and discussions about the candidate between Sandra, Jeanie and Maureen to ensure they had the platforrn to exercise choice over who sUPPOrted them. The candidate was subsequently successful with his application. working at the home to this day. Angela has since embedded this step into the recruitment proce55 to maximi5e opportunitie5 for the indNidua15 SUPPOrted to make hoices to live the life they choose. Public Benefit The Trustees confirm that in developing and reviewing the strategic plan, objectives and attNlties of Wa15in8ham Support consideration has been given to the public benefit guidance issued by the Charity Commi55ion.
All of our activities are in support of our objects: The relief of those who ore in choritoble need through the provision of housing, core ond support services, primarilyfor those who hove leorning disabilities. but olsofor those with otherf0rn7s of disabilAty {includin9 physicol. mentol, sensory and degenerotive disobilities, QUt15m spertrum disorder5 t7nd broin injurie5J t7nd including those with multiple disobilities..

ws Injioiiatioii On 20th January 2022. Tracey Simms, who lives at our Hatfield home, started her Brain in Hand journey with her Brain in Hand specialist. Brain in Hand is a digital self-management support system that helps people live more independently by helping thern with their plannin& decision-making and memory. Tracey and her specialist started meeting fortnightly over Microsoft Teams. where they went through Trace(s Brain in Hand workbook, teaching her how to use the app and how to use Microsoft Teams. Before Tracey started having her meetings, she didn't know much about how to Use a laptop or Microsoft Teams. She now says: "I feel much more confident when having my sessions nobrf. Her favourite part of using the Brain in Hand app is the traffic lights system to describe how she is feeling every day. Tracey says it Is normally always green because she is very happy, but if her feelings are amber she will write a comment to say why she was feeling like this. whith she can go back to at a later date to see why she felt this way andlor what she did to make herself feel better. She said it is also reassuring that if she thooses the red traffic light she 8ets a call from someone at Brain in Hand to check she 15 okay and to offer support to help her feel better again. On Trace¢s Brain in Hand app. she has reminders set to help her remember things likes taking her medication and to attend any appointments she may have. She also uses Brain in Hand to plan her day step by step, especially if she is going out in the community independently. as she can add bus infom7ation and emergency contact details to the app. Tracey is currently planning her holiday to Blackpool. using the Brain in Hand app to help her prepare for things like what she needs to pack and where she would like to visit.

As always. our progress has been built on our 5 strategic priorities of Quality. Workforce. Growth, Organisational Development & Engagement. Our income reduced slightly as we ensure our service mix matches our expertise- so we saw our annual income from charitable activities reduce to £28.4m. being an 2.7% decrease. Staying connected At Griffin Close in West Cumbria. Te55 McElroy. Artivities Co-ordinator, and Kari Reay. Service Engagement Manager, and the rest of the team found innovative ways for the home to maintain the routines and events the people we support are used to despite having to endure the lockdowns and restrictions brought about by the Covid- 19 pandemic. In the latter half of 2021, through a constantly evofving process. the team found ways to adapt, create, modify and master new concepts to not only continue to contribute to the SUC$5 of Wa15ingham Support, but also maintain safety and well-being for the people we support. They became more innovative in many ways, with examples being growing their own vegetables to limtt the amount of time they would spend going to the shops, and extensively recycling by making use of the materials they had to hand, again. to lirnit the amount of times they had to go out to buy materials. They learned new ways to keep in touch with other SeiCe5 virtually. and offered stimulating activities Such as online bingo. Musical Instrument fime and Tea Dance. Pre pandemic Griffin Close would organi5e a carol service followed by a Christmas lunch for all service5 in West Cumbria, but due to restrictions they held this via Zoom. The home had high praise for the vicar. who supported the staff and the people we support through the carol services everyone wos used to. which included carols and readings. Despite the distance between the services, everyone got into the Christmas spirit and dressed up for the occasion, showing that a pandemic wasn't going to dampen their fun. From an organisational development perspective. we continued to invest in improving the quality of the support we provide throuEh the Corporate Service5 departments, namely Finance & Human Resources. We continued to build upon the previous years refocussing of the Finance & Commercial team into the specialist aa5 of receivables, payables, benefits. payroll, facilitie5 & IT under the leadership and direction of a Director of Finance & Commercial. The People & Engagement team business partner model has continued to support a collaborative partnership approach ècross recruitment, employee relalions. learning and development and engagement. We continued working in partnership with various Housing Association to provide independent accommodation for individuals to meet their personalised needs. This includes supporting individuals to move out of residential care and hospital settings into supported living. For the individuals we support now, and in the future, this will ensure that we develop per50nolised accommodation solutions. To benefit both the long-term quality of our service provision and support organisational development.
Fluctuating Covid-19 restrictions including vaccination requirements continued to place limitations on actNity in relation to properties and works to essential repair5 and maintenance. Despite those continued challenges. we have managed to continue investment in our estate. We continued to maintain safe and 'socially distanced, environments whilst also providing the best levels of care and support possible. Given the importance of certain matters, we completed a fire door replacement project within our residential properties. On top of this critical refresh. we also saw the installation of two new boilers, 4 hoists and manoeuvrability device, 3 commercial cleaning units. and the placement of flooring across 5 of our 14 residential service- all to ensure the people we support remain in a comfortable and up to date facility. A number of planned decorations continued to be placed on hold. and we are hopeful that as restrictions are lifted as we move into 2022, It will be safe to resume such important works. Together with this reduction in covid restrictions, we are also restarting our longer term capital investment planning programme to ensure our properties remain it a healthy condition. We have continued to invest in our IT infrastructure both in sUPPOrt of our overall quality monitoring systems and also to enable the workforce to have access to communication in the most effective way. supporting them to do their jobs more efficiently. Our focus on digital continues to be a central part of our organisational development with the successful launch of a new learner management system providing a platform for engagement in addition to the creation of bespoke learning pathways tailored to the workforce. To ensure the quality of the support we provide continues. we need to attract the best individuals to join oijr team while retainillg our existing highly skilled and well-trained workforce. Walsingham Support employed 988 staff during the year. The sector has faced increasing recruitment and retention challenges Since the launch of Covid -19 which has been further exasperated by lack of clarity relating to mandatory vaccination criteria. As an or8anisation we proactively took artion which enabled us to pay the workforce above the National Living Wage. We have worked collaborativety with commissioners across England & Wale5 to negotiate oppropriate fees. Although our 8 Annual Conference could not take place due to restrictions brought about by Covid-19. the work of the involvement groups continued from March 2021 with monthly regional virtual meetings and bi-monthly national virtual meetings. This maintained a vital opportunity for the individuals we support from all regions to Eet together with those who they would normally connect with at our yearly conference. These events continue to support our engagement and quality priorities through interactive work5hop5 to provide the individuals we support a platform to influence the future direction of the charity- Our staff worked through many difficult challenges to enable the use of technology ranging from online zoom sessions. weekly digital newsletter sessions. peer to peer friendship groups on WhatsApp. io-
ws Involvement Group The Covid-19 pandemic halted the live5 of everyone across the country as we adapted to living under lockdown restrictions, preventing tss from seeing the people we love and care for the most. and stopping us from pursuing our interests outside of our homes. Before the pandemic hit UK shore5, Walsingham Support had regional meetings where staff and the people we support would meet up face-to-face every month, and every October a National Conference would be held where all regions would meet. The lockdown5 Put an end to this, so our Involvement Group put a plan together to set up regular Zoom meetings so that the people we support could keep in contact with each other and share updates. In March 2021, the regional Zoom meetings were given the green light to ontinue monthly. and from these meetings the bi-monthly national Zoom rneeting5 were introduced, where the people we support from all regions could get together with those who they would usually have to wait to see at our yearly conference. Whilst most lockdown restrictions were lifted by October 2021. caLFtion was still advised by the Government's medical advisers, so the conference that year was. again, cancelled. So, the regional meetings continued. and it was decided that the bi-monthly national meetings will be made quarterly so that there was enough time to prepare for these and to allow for any technical difficulties. The build up to the April 2022 national meeting be8an in the last quarter of 2021. A newsletter was put together so that it could be presented in the next national meeting for all to see. This newsletter included a story on how a per50n we support had improved the garden area at her home in Wales, and also detailed how two people we support in Ross-on-wye and in London had trodden the boards in a stage production of Joseph ond his Amozing Technicolour Dreamcoot, along with so many more stories of how the people we support had lived their lives to the full despite lockdown restrictions. As well as detailing individual stories. the people we SUPFrfJrt Used the newsletter as an OPFM)rtunity to provide useful information. The people we 5UPPOrt in our Northern homes shared their tIPs on how to plan a holiday. and the people we support from our Central homes showcased their easy read support plan template. A word5earch was also included, whose words were associated with actions on putting the Involvement Group together, with the plan being to present the puzzle in the April call for everyone to 501ve. The newsletter is a wonderful way to keep up-to- date on the happenings at Wa15ingham Support, but the Zoom call to get everyone involved in reading the newsletter will add that personal connedion to others that. even without the pandemic, is a challenge to or8anise in person. Financial Review During the year, the sector continues to operate in an environment of tight finances and COVID has continued to add additional challenges both operationally and financially. We are taking active steps to overcome the challenges. Misstatements relating to previous accounting periods were identified during the course of preparing the financial statements. These misstatements resulted in the overstatement of the charitvs total funds by £1,160k as at 31 March 2021. The misstatements have been corrected via a prior period adjustment and restatement of the comparative amounts. which is detailed in te 7. li-

This is partly due to a reduction in staffing costs lintluding agency and on-costsl from £25.6m to £24m during the year. but also as a result of supressed activity associated with COVID restrictions.
ws Operating expenditure was primarily spent directly on the support of individuals with disabilities.

This 15 decided by the Trustees based on advice from management. These are defined in the annual statutory attounts. Unrestrirted funds Reserves available for any actNity within Walsingham Supporfs charitable objects. Unrestricted funds are made up from designated and general funds. Our Reserves Policy is designed to achieve unrestrided reserve5 equivalent to between 1- 3 months of general operating costs. As at 31, March 2022, the balance was £4.74m, representing 1.8 month5 of operating costs. The Property fund represents funds already invested in property and therefore not freely available to be expended in furtherance of the charitrfs objects. The Trustee5 believe that the level of reserves we want to achieve will enable the charity to continue to grow and cover short term risk5 and uncertainties, working capital and other contractual obligations. -14-

The investment Strategy has been set to ensure liquidity and security of funds whilst maximising income. Where the organisation has surplus funds not needed to fund its immediate charitable activities: they are invested in order to generate extra income to fund future activities. Risks & Uncertainties The Walsingham Support group proartNely manages its risks and has a Risk Management & A55urance Poliry and Framework in place. The Executive Leadership Team IELTI drive the identification of risks and their significance, through a Corporate Risk Register that links to our strategic priorities. which is reviewed quarterly by ELT members. The higher-level risks scored above our risk appetite Iscored > 15- major or severe risks) were reported to all Trustees via the Assurance Committee and at Board Meetings. During 2021122, the severe key risks and uncertainties identified were centd around managing our cash flow due to the pandemic and failing to offercompetitive salaries and rewards to attract, recruit and retain quality workforce, which is a concern acr055 the Adult Social Care Seclor and not unique to Walsingham Support. There were some major risks throughout the year whith were the continued concerns over compliance with mandatory training. due to the pandemic plus the need to ensure the Wa15ingham Support group tried to reduce the risk of Covid-19 impacting on individuals supported, staff and the business. In addition to this. as with any organisation there was also the need to continue to review our leadership and management structures to ensure quality of service5 and due to some organisational restructures. this could have led to the lack of specialist staff in post in specific departments. Each risk continues to be kept under regular review and every effort is made to mitigate the risks through a varietv of approaches including restrurturin& outsourcing seryices to support recruitment, developing leadership programmes and adapting quality pro$5 whilst also taking cost saving measures where they do not adversely affect our services. As of 31 March 2022. none of the highest wei8htin8 risks were of undue concern as effective controls were in place which were being regularly monitored and additional controls either being improved or developed. Post year end a whistleblowing incident was raised with the Care Quality Commission and the Charity Commission, this is being collaboratively reviewed with both regulators. 15-

If circumstances require. reasonable adjustments are made to support employees in carrying out their duties. -16-
ws Our staff Angelo started volunteering at Walsingham Support in March 2021. His role was to design e-learning programs for our Learning Management System. Here is his story on his experience- "In late 2019, 1 applied to volunteer as a Course Trainer for a national tharity- I completed my induction ènd was ready to start delivering course5. but the first lockdown brought this to a premature halt. Because of the lockdowns introduced throughout 2020.1 never officially volunteered for this charity. and as I wa5 moving out of the area to move closer to family I would not have been able to volunteer for them once restrictions were lifted. Fast forward to January 2021, and the country was still in a lockdown. Everything I liked to do in my spare time wa5 closed. and I thought volunteering was another of my interests that I couldn't pursue. On top of this, the house I was buying fell through. and all my belongings were in a storage unit 65 miles away from where I wos livin& $0 all my films, video game5 and craft supplies were inatssible. meaning that I couldn't even pursue my hobbies at horne. I was in regular contact with f[ndS and family. but only virtually. I was very fortunate during the lockdowns that I was able to work from home throughout. so I went to do-it.org to look for a volunteer opportunity that I could also do from home. It was slim pickings until I found the E-Learning Designer opportunity advertised at Walsingham Support. I thoLsght this was perfect, as it was something I had never done before but thought my skills in training could be utilised. plus l am very creative and had experien in design. On top of that, I could do all this from my laptop at home. I was lucky enough to be successful in my interview. and started volunteering in March 2020. I cannot put into words how muth volunteering at Walsingham Support meant to me. There was only so much TV I could watch and cleaning l could do to pass the time during the lockdowns. so creatin8 e-learning programs from scratch filled my spare time construrtively. as I learnt new skills whilst devoting time to a worthy cause. I had regular feedback on my work wtth Kim. the Head of Learning & Engagement. and with her guidance I was able to make these pmgrams the best they can be for the staff at Wa15ingham Support. The Volunteer Co-ordinator at the time a150 kept in regular contact to check that everything was going smoothly. l am very proud to say that I now work forwalsingham Support as the Senior Engagement & Communications Officer. Having the experience of working as a volunteer 8ave me an invaluable insight on how the organisation is run, and gave me first-hand experience of producing work for them on my own and as part of a team. I left an organisation I had been working with for eight years before joining Walsillgham Support. and whi15t it was still a big step to take. I knew that it would be the right decision to leave as I had nothing but a positive experience from my volunteering- an experien I will continualty be grateful for. I have always been an advocate of volunteering if you are looking to leam new skills for a career you have always dreamed of. or to fill a gap in a CV if you ère seeking work. On top of it being just a worthwhile use of your freè time. there are so many benefits you can gain from it personally and professionally. This has certainly been mv experiencel" Going Concern The Trustees consider that based on normal operating circumstances there are no material uncertainties surrounding the organisation's ability to remain a going concern for the foreseeable future for at least 12 months from the approval of these accounts. However, the COVID 19 pandemic has developed rapidly since 2020 and tt is uncertain continued to impact on performance in 21122. The resulting impoct of the virus on the operations and measures taken by the -17-
government to contain the virus. as well as the impact on supporting highly vulnerable people, have negatively affected the group's results in the 2021-22 period. The currently known imparts of COVID 19 on the group's accounts are..

BASIS FOR OPINION We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UK)) and applicable law. OUT responsibilities under those standards are fither described in the Auditors, 'esponsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have lfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

OPINION ON OTHER MATIERS PRESCRIBED B Y 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 for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared 15 con51Stent with the financial statements. the Trustees, Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable le8al requirements. MATTERS ON WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT B Y EXCEFrtON Isi the light of our knowledge and understanding of the chartfable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material znisstatements in the Trustee5' Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if. in our opinion= the parent charitable company has not kept adequate and sufficient accounting records. or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by u5: or the parent charitable company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and retums- or certain disclosures of Trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made- Of we have not received all the intormation and explanations we require for our audit. RESPONSIBtLITIES OF TRUSTEES As explained more fully in the Tntee$, Responsibilities Statement, 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 thev give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees deterniine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are ti'ee from materiaI misstatement. whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements. the TnteeS are responsible for assessing the Group's and the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable: matters related to oing concern and using the going concern b&sis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, OT have no realistic alternative but to do so. .4UDITORS' 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 Audiiors, Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a ht8h level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will alwavi delect a material mi5Statement when it exists. Misstatemenls can aTise 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 OUT responsibilities. outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respeci of ii'regularities. including fraud. The extent to which OUT procedures are capable of detecting irregUl.]t1eS, Iiicluding fraud is detailed below- We have considered the nature of the sector. control environmeftt and financial procedure; We have considered the results of enquiries with management and trustees in relation to their own identification and assessment of the risk of irregularities within the entity,. -24-
ws We have reviewed the documentation of key processes and controls and perfomed walkthroughs of transactions to confimi that the systems are operating in line with documentation- We have reviewed all documentation and communicaÈion with the key regulators. As a result of these procedures. we have considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within Ihe organisation for fraud and identified the highest area of risk to be in relation to revenue re¢ognition, with a particular risk in relation to year-end cut off. In common with all audits under ISAS (UK) we are also required to perfonn specific procedures to respond lo the risk of management OVeIde. We have also obtained understanding of the legal and regulatory frameivorks that the company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direci effe¢i on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act. FRS 102 and UK tax legislation. In addition, we considered the provisions of other laws and regulations that do no have a direct effect on the financial statements but Compliance with which may be fundamental to the Company's ability to operate or avoid a material penalty. Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effert on the financial statements- Performing analytical procedures to identify unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud,. Reviewing board meeting rninutes: Enquiring of management in relation to actual and potential claims or litigations: Performing detailed transartional testing in latiOn to the cognition of revenue with a particular focus around year-end cut off- and In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of contro15. testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments- assessing whether the judgfflents made in accountinLestimates are indicative of potential bias,. and evaluating the business rationale of significant tranlactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. We also communicated idenlified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all members of the eiigagement team and remained alert to possible indicators of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. Because of the inherent limitations of an audiL there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misslatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is i'emoved from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. as we will be l¢ss likely lo become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater Tegarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, foToery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
