FENHAM ASSOCIATION OF RESIDENTS TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 31 March 2021
Objectives, strategies and activities for the year
During this period like so many others, our organisation was deeply affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. This touched every aspect of our organisations work. From day to day engagement, support to children, young people, families and older people had to be paused whilst most of the country stood still in lockdown. This affected our day to day centre operations. However our organisation adapted the centre use to provide emergency food parcels to the community and offered access to other support. This meant adapting our volunteers roles so that they could help in respond to residents who were in crisis because of the pandemic.
This was a real team effort and brought together volunteers who would normally provide different support to our charity and they combined together to ensure they residents in our community would be supported throughout the pandemic, whether it was emergency food parcels, telephone calls from befrienders, or digital support to young people. Restrictions changed throughout the period and we adapted to these changes, providing outreach and detached support to young people, utilizing our community garden project (when meeting outdoors was the only option) and in small groups when circumstances allowed it.

2. Public Benefit Statement
The Board of Trustees has referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's objectives and planning its future activities. This annual report will aim to demonstrate the link between our charitable activity and how this benefits our service users.
3. Contribution by Volunteers
During this period all charities were able to demonstrate the value of volunteering and how much volunteers provide to charities, and its often unseen work. During the pandemic, this work was brought to the surface and bright light highlighted how vital volunteers are to our charity. Our charity, community and beyond owe and enormous debt of gratitude to them all.
4. Achievements and Performance
Continue to develop the children and young people’s network, to strengthen and raise quality of provision and sustainability of provider organisations
Development of CIC organisation
The Children and young peoples’ network North East CIC is now registered with the companies house, and has submitted its third year trading accounts. Our progression plan is to utilize the CIC for commissioned work, but we will are also considering opening a charitable branch of the network. The networks performance this year was affected by the pandemic, reduction in grant aid, furloughed staff and centre lockdowns. This impacted upon this ability to reach out to the community in the ways it had previously.
-
CIC engaged with 7 organisations during 2020-21
-
CIC engaged with 110 young people during 2020-21
Holiday projects and summer activities.
Support from David Dockray’s West End Young Peoples’ fund, Community Foundation Tyne and Wear, Children in Need and West Fenham and Wingrove Ward committee created a positively resourced and extremely well attended summer playscheme provision. We worked for six weeks of the summer providing great support for children and young people, aged between 5-12 and 13-19. Although the method of engagement and numbers had to change, we still managed to provide an excellent programme of engage for them.

This included residential breaks, sports, arts and crafts and health eating. This year we were also funded by Streetgames who had secured funding from Central Government around tackling holiday hunger. We provided a range of activities to encourage children and young people to be more active and try new things.
(Leia, Ellice and Libby, reflecting on impact on their lives during the pandemic)
Defra and other Emergency relief support
During this year our volunteers provided support to over 800 different residents during the pandemic. This ranged from emergency food supplies, working in partnership with local food chain organisations, like Grainger Market, Morrisons, Fareshare, M&S Food, Neighbourly. We combined resources together along with capital and food only grants to purchase climate controlled vehicles to ensure no food was spoilt. We converted several rooms in our centre into climate control rooms to store ambient food. We were very fortunate to secure grants from WRAP, National Lottery Covid-Relief food, Defra, Citylife line (Connected voice) and several other funders to enabled us to deliver this work and support our community. Needless to say this work was made possible by our volunteers working together and making the most of these opportunities to maximize the benefit for our community.

Evaluation and outputs
Fenham Association of Residents internally evaluates all of our projects during the year and reports back to all funders about our progress. We often externally evaluate dependent upon agreements with specific funders
Fundraising
We secured three year funding from Society of the Sacred Heart and additional covid-19 support from Henry Smith Foundation these funds will help ensure we continue to sustain our success, however much more investment is required to help us grow.
We have continued to fundraise locally because of the help of our volunteers and trustees who have given their free time to the organisation to arrange fundraisers and social nights. Our community centre continues to prove profitable and we are working hard to create a sustainable resource for the community, this is achieved because of room hire charges, and using the centre wisely to generate income, however these have been unavoidability been hit this year with lockdown, room closures, and cancelled parties and events. The road back to recovery from this will be long as many agencies have closed and groups folded during the pandemic. We will be patient and we hope that a small capital improvement to our centre will lead to some revenue changes for the centre and the ability to increase our capacity, which we hope, will help our recovery and get us back to long term sustainability.
We would like to make a special mention to Noah MacDonald a young boy who is the grandson of one of our founding members (Theresa MacDonald) during the pandemic, Noah was so touched by the difficulties of families in our community who were struggling to cope on low income and worried about those children who’d normally receive free school meals, and how they would cope during the holidays that he sought to raise funding and awareness by doing an sponsored walk. This resulted in in lots of backers and raised £965 for our charity. It was a special effort by a very caring young man, we are extremely proud of him. Well done Noah and thank you.

6. Risk Management
The management committee has conducted its own review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and for ensuring the consistent quality of the delivery of all operational aspects of the charitable company. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the charity.
7. Plans for future periods
Fenham Association of Residents is constantly reviewing our funding strategy and is considering short term, medium and long-term goals for the organization. We additionally are reviewing our hall hire and other income generating policies.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
For the year ended 31 March 2021
I report on the financial statements of Fenham Association of Residents for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 11 to 21.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
I 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 March 2021
1 Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
2 Basis of accounting
2.1 Basis of preparation
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The accounts have been prepared 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 1 January 2019) – Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Fenham Association of Residents meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
2.2 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charity reported total unrestricted funds at the year end of £355,875 . The trustees are of the view that the immediate future of the charity for the next 12 months is secure and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has put pressure on all businesses in 2020-21. It should be noted that the creditors are being paid when the payments are falling due. No other significant events affecting the Company since the year end.
3 Income
3.1 Recognition of income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the resources, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is more likely than not that the resources will be received and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
3.2 Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by FRS102 SORP or FRS102.
3.3 Grants and donations
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria of income recognition are met.

4.5 Creditors

A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
