TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
The trustees present their report, together with the unaudited financial statements of the charity, for the year ended 30 September 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing documents, the Charities Act 2011 and ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’, published in October 2019.
Trustees of the Charity
The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purposes of charity law. Details of the trustees who have served during the year and since the year end can be found on page 4.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT
The objects of the charity are to relieve, treat and promote the relief and treatment of those diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders and to provide support for such persons and their families. The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit in reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives.
In previous years, the charity’s objectives were primarily achieved by the letting of two fully equipped care homes to its operating subsidiary Poplars Alzheimer’s Lodge Limited, until those homes were sold in 2019. Since then, the charity has continued to provide advocacy and support to those affected by Alzheimer’s and related disorders, including their families and carers.
The trustees have continued to review the strategic plan, in order to maintain the operation of the organisation in the manner most consistent with the needs of those requiring our services, focussing attention on the following key areas:
-
finance
-
fundraising
-
marketing
-
organisational development
The charity has been served throughout by numerous volunteers who have given their time freely to provide the following support services:
-
fusion café work
-
advocacy
-
Dementia Friendly Community dances.
The trustees acknowledge their indebtedness to the volunteers for their continued efforts on behalf of the organisation.
ACHIEVEMENTS, PERFORMANCE AND PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
The financial year under review has again been an extremely challenging one but has allowed for a continued period of restructuring and refocussing for the charity.
The previously mentioned property sales generated sufficient unrestricted reserves to enable the charity to repay its long-term loans with Barclays Bank, and other external creditors, in full.
Following the sale of the two care homes, and once the final debtors/creditors reconciliations had been completed, the directors of PAL, with the full support of their fellow charity trustees, took the decision to place that company into liquidation, which is currently in progress and is being handled by Begbies Traynor Group.
In January 2020, the trustees had agreed a proposed strategy of internal change and external expansion to enable the charity to sustain and grow, both geographically and financially, to be funded out of the reserves from the sale of the two homes. These plans had to be quickly adapted to help local people affected by dementia through the significant challenges of three Covid lockdowns and a slow return to a ‘new normal’.
As a consequence, the priority of the charity during 2020/2021 has centred on helping people to be resilient and supporting them during the waves of Covid-19, so that they were able to stay connected to their families, support networks and communities.
With significantly reduced income from fundraising, the trustees had to utilise the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS), and staff were furloughed, which prevented any job losses during the pandemic and reduced cash outflow.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
ACHIEVEMENTS, PERFORMANCE AND PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS ( Continued )
Plans for the Future
The effects of Covid-19 on the charity cannot be understated. During the 2020/2021 financial year and beyond, projections show a predicted deficit as the charity continues its transition. Throughout the financial year, we continued to look at ways to develop both trading opportunities and grant-supported services, with a more definite focus on community and home-based support. The pandemic disrupted our plans and we continued to find ourselves in a very challenging position, as fundraising events that usually generated unrestricted income were cancelled in line with government restrictions.
In May 2021, we successfully secured funding for two new projects to contribute to our ongoing service delivery. This enabled us to provide a new dementia-specific bereavement service in Stockton-on-Tees and a ‘reducing loneliness and isolation’ volunteer service across the three boroughs of Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland. These projects created one new job opportunity and five new volunteer positions.
The trustees examined the proposed business plan in the light of continuing Covid restrictions and concluded that the staffing levels together with operating costs were too high and, after consultation, made further posts redundant in order to conserve cash reserves. The likelihood of grant funding increasing substantially in the near term is slim in the extreme, though the demand for the services that Clevearc can provide is unquestionable.
We continued building working relationships with other organisations to enable us to deliver projects in other areas. We were able to work with an independent expert to explore possible opportunities for the sustainability of the charity going forward. This work will now inform the review of the charity’s Vision, Mission, Values and Strategic Direction and the formulation and application of a new business plan.
Because there is increased uncertainty as regards future funding to the voluntary sector due to Covid-19 we will search for new income streams, particularly through trading and donations, to improve the charity’s financial stability. We will also continue our work around improving care for people and families living with dementia across the Tees Valley, and assess its impact through our ongoing development and success in creating inclusive dementia-friendly communities.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
A summary of the income and expenditure of the charity, and of its opening and closing balance sheet positions, is provided within the annexed accounts.
The charity ended the financial year with unrestricted cash reserves of £274,484 (previous year: £447,644) which continues to be used as seed-funding for the charity’s activities going forward.
Reserves Policy
In past accounting periods, and in the normal course of events, the trustees would have expected the trading subsidiary company to generate sufficient profits to enable it to pay annual amounts by way of property rental and gift aid donation to the parent charity. This, in turn, would have enabled the parent charity to generate annual net incoming resources and maintain its own reserves for the ongoing funding of its bank loan repayments, beyond which the charity itself had little need to retain significant cash reserves.
Following on from the matters referred to above, particularly around the cessation of the subsidiary company’s activities and the restructuring and reorganising of the charity’s affairs (including full repayment of its bank loans), the trustees have considered their requirements in terms of minimum levels of cash-backed unrestricted reserves going forward. At present, this is expected to be fairly modest, given the charity’s transition towards becoming a grant-funded provider of services and support, rather than an owner of specialist care homes.
Investment Powers and Policy
Under its Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit.
The trustees have operated a policy of retaining surplus funds in an interest-bearing bank deposit account.

TRUSTEES’/DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing Document
Cleveland Alzheimer’s Residential Centre Limited is a company, limited by guarantee and not having a share capital, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 10 February 1989. It is also a charity registered with the Charity Commission. Members of the company agree to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 in the event of the charity being wound up.
Appointment of Trustees/Members of the Council of Management
The initial members of the Council of Management were the subscribers to the Memorandum and Articles of Association. New members are appointed from time to time at the discretion of existing members to fill identified skills gaps. The minimum number of members is three.
In relation to the Companies Act 2006, members of the Council of Management are also directors of the limited company.
Trustee Induction and Training
New trustees normally attend an initial meeting with the Chairman. This meeting involves consideration of and discussion around the latest reports and financial statements, Memorandum and Articles of Association, Ethos and Values Statements, Corporate Brochure and Business Plan. Copies of all of these documents are then retained by the new trustee.
Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events, where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role, and are also provided with in-house mentoring and support when required.
Organisation
The charity is administered by the trustees who, throughout the year under review, delegated responsibility for the day to day operations of the charity to its CEO.
Remuneration of Key Management Personnel
The trustees consider the CEO to be the Key Management Personnel of the organisation. The remuneration package for the CEO has been reviewed on an annual basis having regard to external factors such as the recruitment market and salary rates for positions offered locally by other care providers.
Related Parties
The charity owns 100% of the issued share capital of Poplars Alzheimer’s Lodge Limited. That company was set up to operate two care homes and to provide respite and day care for people living with dementia. The whole of the profits of Poplars Alzheimer’s Lodge Limited have historically been paid across to the charity by way of rent and/or gift aid.
Risk Management
The trustees have developed a corporate risk register which identifies the areas of risk to which they believe the charity is exposed. The major risk categories have been identified as follows:
-
legislative
-
financial
-
technological
-
compliance
-
community
-
managerial
-
people
-
social.
The trustees have then highlighted the main issues within each of the above categories and have developed risk reduction strategies to enable them to manage those issues.
The corporate risk register is used as a monitoring tool and is reviewed at each governance meeting.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
1. STATUTORY INFORMATION
Cleveland Alzheimer’s Residential Centre Limited is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the Reference and Administrative Details on page 4 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are to relieve, treat and promote the relief and treatment of those diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders and to provide support for such persons and their families.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements 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)’, issued in October 2019, the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. They are prepared in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity, and rounded to the nearest pound.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. The policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
(b) Income Recognition
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
For grants and donations to be recognised, the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the grant or donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained, then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP. Further detail is given in the Trustees’ Annual Report.
For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occasion legacies will be notified to the charity whilst it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed.
Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares. It includes dividends and interest and is included when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity’s right to receive payment is established.
(c) Resources Expended
Resources expended are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of VAT. Individual costs are allocated between the various headings in the Statement of Financial Activities by reference to the underlying nature or reason for which those costs were incurred, on an estimated basis.
(d) Funds
Unrestricted general funds are those 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.
Restricted funds are those which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or as the result of a specific appeal or application. Such funds are kept separate from the unrestricted funds of the charity and only related expenditure is charged against them.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued )
(e) Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of an asset over the estimated useful life of that asset as follows:
Fixtures and equipment - 15% reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% reducing balance
(f) Investments
Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations at each balance sheet date.
(g) Debtors and Creditors receivable/payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due.
(h) Cash at Bank and in Hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes 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.
(i) Loans and Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
(j) Pension Costs
Contributions, which are payable into the personal pension plans of individual members of staff, are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities for the period to which they relate.
(k) Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Impairment provision - the charity made an impairment provision of £500,000 against the loan account balance due from its subsidiary company at the previous balance sheet date. This loan reflects the ongoing financial support to enable that company to continue trading, thereby safeguarding a high standard of continuing care for the remaining residents, through to the date of sale, and maximising the selling price of the freehold property. It is hoped that some, if not all, of the remaining loan account balance will be recovered by means of the return of any residual cash balances to the charity on completion of the liquidation of the subsidiary company.

Unrestricted Designated Fund
The above designated fund reflects a transfer from general funds of a £5,000 legacy from the estate of the former Chairman, Mr. J.R. Southall deceased.
Restricted Funds
Fusion cafe - this is a popular dementia cafe which has been running since February 2006. It is led by Clevearc, staffed by volunteers, and is a free service, funded by individual donations and fundraising. The cafe provides a supportive environment for people with dementia and their carers to attend a social occasion together, where the effects of their dementia are understood and accepted. The cafe is open on the last Friday of every month, staffed by 8 to 10 volunteers and attended by 35 to 45 customers.
Dementia Voices Stockton - this advocacy project was initially funded by Comic Relief, Ballinger Charitable Trust and Northern Rock Foundation for two years. Due to the success of the project the Ballinger Charitable Trust funded a further three year project incorporating additional services, including a Dementia Care Co-ordinator service. The project is the only service of this kind in the North of England and empowers people in Stockton-on-Tees to self-manage their health and care from diagnosis to living well with dementia.
Dementia Friendly Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland - this project, which has operated since September 2015, received joint funding in April 2018 for one year from Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland Borough Councils to employ a Dementia Friendly Communities Business Engagement Lead. The project aims to build on the success of the Dementia Friendly Middlesbrough project and also establish a new Dementia Friendly Community in the borough of Redcar & Cleveland. A dementia friendly community enables people living with dementia to remain active, meet with understanding and have the ability to live independently with support. Dementia friendly communities also support local businesses and organisations to make simple changes that will ensure their services are more accessible for their customers who are living with dementia or are carers.
Dementia Friendly Stockton - this project is financed by fundraising from small events and raises dementia awareness within the town, particularly during National Dementia Awareness Week in May each year.
Social engagement through music and dance - social engagement through music and physical activity, dancing, has been found to improve confidence, self-esteem and wellbeing for those living with dementia and their families and carers. Funding has been provided by Sport England’s Your Active Living Fund and from Middlesbrough Matters to provide dance sessions in both Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland.

17. STATEMENT OF FUNDS (Continued)
Dementia Bereavement Service - Thirteen Community Fund and a local family business have provided funding for a bereavement service specifically for carers of people with dementia. Throughout the pandemic, carers have struggled with no support network whilst the person they cared for could not understand what was happening in their lives. Throughout the pandemic, there have been a disproportionate number of deaths amongst those who have dementia which has left carers bereaved. The aim is to improve the health and wellbeing of bereaved carers through creative participation and direct therapy to allow carers to express their emotions, find ways to cope with their grief and come to terms with their loss. A counsellor who already provided bereavement support for a local hospice will lead the sessions.
Reducing isolation and loneliness - Tees Valley Community Fund through their Better Together Fund have provided funding to help those living with dementia and their carers reconnect with the local community following the easing of lockdown restrictions by providing support, training and advice to carers.
