OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
A brlof hlstory of the development of sgrvlcas to hom•l¢ss pwple In Norwlch by St Martlns Housing
Trust
In 1972 a group of volunteèrs began to Provide services to people sleeping rough on the streets of Nowch.
The then Dean Alan Webster was so concerned about rcwgh sleepers that he provlded sheller in his garage in
Norwich Cathedral Close kindly provided by the Bishop al the tlme, the Rl. Revd. MauTiGe Wood. Subsequenlly
Ihe diocese made the redundant church of St James. Po¢klhorpe available in 1973 and Sl Martins {Sl Martins
Housing Trust as it became) opened th8 doors of the firsl Norwich Night Shelter. The ne￿Y appointed Bishop
Ihe Rt. Revd. Graham Usher maintains a keen interest in the aclivllles of the Charity and made a visit to Sl
Martins on the day of hbs appolntmenl was announced14th May 2019).
In 1976 the Nighi Shelter was re-located to St Martin$4n-Ihe-Oak In Oak Street Norwich, a church buildir
18ased from Norfolk HislNic Churches Trust.. It remained open 365 nighls 8 year until February 2002.
Regrettably there are still people sleeping rough on the streets of the city. However the Charty now wovides
far more Ilmely and ￿Mprehens￿e range of services to meet their needs.

Following publi¢ fund-raising campaigns and partnerships wlh N0￿ch City Coun¢il. Norfolk County Council
and Broadland Housing Group, the Charity succeeded in developing Iwo purpoS￿bU111 residential facilrties. In
1989 Sl Martins House in Westwck Street was opened (and re-furbished and Tfropened in 2009 as Highwater
House, a 22-bed speciali51 "dual diagnosis. registered care homel- In 2003, to finally replace the long-serving
Night Shelter in Oak Street, 8 30 bed direct access hostel (Bishopbridge House), was opened. Highwaler
House is owned by the Charity and Bishopbridge House owned by Broadland Housing Group. In 2017 we
expanded this faalily lo 37 beds (including a sit-up service).
For 20 years up lo 2014 the Charity also leased a property from Norni¢h City CourKrl - a second ftgistered
?re home kn¢)wn as Carrow Hill Home. This Wi¢torian property was vacated in June 2015 when a 15 year
lease commenced with Norwich City Council on 'Lakenfields'. Lakenfields is a 1960's-buitL 33-apartmenl
shellered scheme for older people. deemed no lonoer 'fit for purpose" by Norwich City Council. Following an
extensive refurbishment programme by the Charity the scheme was re-named Webster Court and officially
opened on 23 June 2015 by the widow of the former Dean of Norwith Cathedral Alan Webster, a great
supporter of the Charlty In its early years.
During 2018 thé Charity negotlated wth Broadlan(l Houslng Group to tske over the management of thelr
purposfrbulll hostel for 22 people at Dibden Road. Norwlch. A lease wa5 agreed until 2037 {wtth a number of
break Glausesl.
During 2020 a lease was agreed on a property in Recorder Road, No￿l¢h {The Old Reading Rooms) which
has been redesigned to accommodate a 'Som8whèra Safe to Stay. emergency assessment and
accommodallon hub. This hub has the potential lo support 16 people by getting them off the Streets before Iheir
rough sleeping habits become entrenched and vKirking with them to suppyt them into mc*e secure and
permanent accommodation.
In addition to these 5 residentlal sftes (Highwater House, B1shopbr￿ge House, Webster Court. Dibden Road
and The Old Reading Rooms) which offer accommodation to 130 people, the Charity leases a number of 3, 4,
and S bed properties from Nor￿Ch City Council and Broadland Housing Group fc￿ 83 peopie... These
properties are let by the Charity as sh8red accommodation Ilncluding a Dry Hou50) elther lo people moving out
of Bishopbridge House. Dibden Road or, temporarily. to people who are claimiro that they are home18SS
through no faull of their own and whose homelessness ststus is being assessed by the Cty Councl under the
Homelessness Reduction Act 2017.
In addition lo the accommodation listed. Si Martins also provlde5 an 11 bed unit on Magdalen Rd. This unrt is
for people who have signfficanl mental ill health and who. wllhoul support, would ts likely lo be sleeping rough.
The Charity provides accommodalDn for 12 people al Bakery Court as part of the service to delfver mental
health suppori across Norfolk.
In total Sl Martin5 provides 236 beds lo people who are homeless Of al rlsk from b8iThJ homeths.
The Trustees realised sever81 years ago that the provision of temporary a¢¢ommodalion (or even long 8t8y
accommodation for the very vulnerable homeless population) was only a partial 501ulion lo the problems
experienced by mosl people who are homeless or al risk from homelessness. Under One Roof has been
designed to provide leaming, personal development and voGatlonal preparation opportunitK8S for any of the
people who us& our Charity s services. Providing a solid financial platform for Under One Roof (which falts
outside the funding interests of stalulory authorltles. particularty in these Ilmes of auslerilyl is an ongoing
challenge for Trustees. However in 2020 the Charty was awarded National Lottery funding lo support people
with their wellbeing during (and followng) the first Covid Lockdown.
The Truslees also acknowledge that the prevention of homelessne55 wherever p)s$ible is IMP￿￿￿1. To this
end Community servic*s and a 5pecialKqt mental health drop in project18ridgesl have been developed. During
2020r21, in partnership wKh Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust INSFTI we have also provided a mental
health Crisis service In the evenings (Under One Wingl.This work helps to redLKe the pressure on the Charity's

Durlng 2018 we completed the refurbishment of 4 and 6 BracorKlale wh￿h we inherited as part of a legacy.
These properties have now been let on the ¢ommercial market and the ￿nI received is used to support the
work of the Charfly. They are also an asset which can be used in future years if cash is needed. Also during
2018 TTU5tees agreed to sell the property located in East Runlon which was left as part of the same legacy.
Due lo land related Issues this sale took considerable time lo complete bul the funds were recelved in August
2020. The funds from this sale will be used lo help to fund the new accommodation Fxolecl which foms parl of

During the 12 months under revlew we have seen an increase in the all-round demand for our services, the
rough sleepers count in November 2020 was 21 in No￿l¢h(lI was 18 in the previous yearl.

Pathways Norwi¢h was establlshed in July 2018. It Is a partnership of soven organisalions (Salvation Amy,

SUPPOrt. We also have a nurse prescriber in the team.
Our Housing First workers are currently supportlng 10 tenants as part of the housing first project with Nonvich
Clly Council. We have quickly developed an underslandlng of the very complex needs of individuals accessing
Ihis fast track, supported housing option and understand that their heallh has become extremely compromised
as a res4Jlt of ther CoM￿eX lrfe experiences. For this purpose we have recruited a Health Navigator to assist
Feople to engage more effe¢lively with health care provlsion.
During 2020121 the Charity received a grant from Norfolk Communlty Foundation's Survtving a Covid
Wintsr campaign to offer 'slreel breaks. to people sleeping rough during the winter months. This has
proved a highly Successful approach lo provlding people sleeplng rough wrth an 6mergen¢y offer Whe￿ no
alternallve exists. This iniliattve has led lo greater levels of engagement with specialist support and
ultimatety a more secuTr housing option.
During 2020121353 people were assessed and 309 had pogltiv8lknown outcomes.
We also monitor the number of people that are found sleeping rough in the Gity. During the year we engaged
wlth 156 peO￿e during our morning oulreach, 58 of which were completely new to rough sleeping in our areo.
133 were male and 23 female. We s￿￿essfUllY housed 89 people in a planned way. 23 wople were already
housed when we encountered them during outreach,. often people will continue wth St￿91 1ffest￿e and
associated activities even when they have been housed.
Blshopbrldgè Houso
The direct acLess hostel has b8en a crucial part of the housing pathway for people sleeplng rough since 2002.
It remains an effective and effKient servrce and Is in high demand. This service can house 30 people in the
main hostel each nsghl and the new pathway5 beds Can house 7 people. During the year we delivered 85
posilive outcomes al Bishopbridge House.

The multiple and Complex needs experienced by many rough sleepers has had an impact on the direol access
service. Bishopbridge House relies on housing providers in the area lor move on options for our residents and
we are finding il in¢reasingly drfficult to identify suilable housing within the city that can provide the level of
support needed. This means that people are staying al the hostel mu¢h longer than previously and therefore
reducing the number of new bed spaces that become available. During the year we have seen a slight increase
in Ihe number of 'revolvin9 door. residents (from 51 % in 2019120 to 57°A in 2020121 }- This is a trend we will
m¢m¢tor in forthcoming years.
Wllhin Blshopbridge House we also rnan￿e our No Second Night Out and Sit-up service which offers us a
lolal of 7 beds for people coming in directly from the street and with 1000h nominalion rights to the Pathways
Nornich outreach team. During this period we were unfortunately nol able to fully ulilise the Strt-up service due
to il beir)g a communa space bLrt we were still able to support 52 people lo move on from thi8 service. 44 were
moved on to more suitsble accommodation, Mth th& exception of one person they all moved into other Sl
martIr￿ aG¢ommoJalion projects.
Dlbdon Rood
Dibden Road Hostel is a male only project and can aC￿mmodate 17 men In Ihe main hostel, wTlh 5 additional
self.conlained flats. As a move-through hostel, residents are more settled and committed ￿ the reselllemenl
proGess and will move on lo independent accommodation. usually with th8 ltxal authority. During the year we
saw 12 people move on from this accommodation in a planned and positN8 way.
Communlty Hom•s
The Charity Currently lease fourteen properties wllhin the wmmunily, twelve from Norwkh City cour￿11 and iwo
propertres from Broadland Housing Group, wlh a lolal of 52 bed spaces. During the year more beds were
added by Gonverting existing spaces within properties. We recognise that houses of mulliple occupancy are not
always the best option, however for Individuals who are used to the shaTed environment of hostel
accrjmmodalion this can be a welcome transrtion before moving onto independent liviro. Durlro the year we
saw 28 peopl8 move on from this accommodalion in a planned way.
During the year we recruited a caretaker and a deaner in order to malntain the hlgh slandwd of cleanllness

All 22 residents al Hlghwaler House have experienced homelessness. or have been so vulnerable because of

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Golng Concem
After making approprtale enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate
r8source5 to continue in operatlonal existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt
the 90ing concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Throughout Ihe reportiThJ period th8 UK has had 3 national lockdowns in response to the spread of the Covid
virus and Norfolk was placed in Tier 4 restrictions {Decemb8r 20201. The Trustees reviewed current working
practices and look all necessary steps lo ensure that government guKlelines were followed and that the people
we support arKI ￿r team members were kept safe. These steps included a review of working shtfts, home
working where p)ssible, the purchase of large supplies of Personal Prolective Equipment IPPE) and mobi18

The Charity maintain$ 8 healthy general reseNe and the Truslees believe that the Charity Is well plawl and

work of the Charity. These include tslks to schools. slxth fomis, lo¢al dubs, clwrch and other faith

Fundralslng actlvlt108 and Income gon•ration
Due to the Covid crisis the￿ was a ￿dUCtion in the amount of food donated during the harvest period.
However, we have been well supported throughout the year by food donations from a wide variety of
sources inctuding Norwi¢h School. Churches and Masonic Icdges.
The details of all donations are always carefully acknowledged and fegularty reported to Trustee$.
Turning to cash donations and the CharR￿S pro-aclive fund-raising aclivities, spe¢lal mention and the Trustee's
gralefvl thanks, must again be made to Mr. Michael Bartlell who once agaln {in very dfft¢ult cir¢umstancesl
organised a number of supermarket Collections and other collections throughout the county, particulorly
pre-christmas. Thanks musl also go to all participating supermarket chalns and Iheli rnanagers and staff al
Tesco, Sainsbury. Morrlsons and the Cowop. The collection raised £27,129.
The December 2020 collection in central Norwich was unable lo lake place but we are extremely graleful to
Hopeslead (the charitable arm of Suffolk Housing) who donated £36,000, given that our December ￿lleCtIOn
was unable to tske place due to the Covid pandemic.
During the reporting period the Charity also received £396,451 in other donations {irtluding donations wa
Standing orders and via Ch8ri1ie5 Aid Foundation). These donations were from individua15, businesses, church
ongregallons, community groups, trusts. foundations, schools and colleges. Durlng the reporting perK)d Ihe
Charity benefitted from four legacies amounting 10 £28,077.
Fw a ￿al Charty this degre8 Df fund-raising Is a remarka￿8 annual aCh￿veMent. The Truslees are
constantly encouraged by the f8Ct that the Norfolk public is $0 g8nerous towards, and interested in, the issue of
homelessness. Wilhoul this level of supwt the Charity would not be able to provide the rrtany services for
homeless people that it does.
Futhising is vilal lo us as a charity. Every year the funds faised are used directly aml wholly to provide
services for homeless people. All fundraising donations received during the year have supported OUT a¢tivilie5
aFMI any surplus will go towards a new accommodation project. This 1$ part of our Strategic Plan 201￿2021.
Inv￿lMont policy and pérforman¢e
It is the Foli¢y of Trustees to Invest Surplus ¢ash in low-rlsk, inlerest*earing aG¢ounts managed by financial
institution5 With ethical poli¢les. The Trustee's policy arranges for the investment of those funds that are not
immediately needed for the current acllvities of the Charity (and lo manage) the effective control of risks
associaled with the management of those fund5, and the pursuit of optimum perfomiance conslslenl wlh those
fur¥Js'.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserv¢8 poIiGy
Trustees have decvjed to relain suffioenl reserves lo ¢over immediat8 ¢losedown costs. Th8 sum of reserves
held is £825.540. The way in which these costs have been determined is documented in detail in the m￿nUteS of
the Trustee meeting of January 30th 2020. Si Martin5 Reserve Pclicy is a policy that is dosely Tnonttored by
Trustees durin9 their regu18r scrutiny of management accounts.
The Trustees recognise that they have reserves in excess of the agreed Reserves Policy. The reason for this is
that for a number of years the Trustees have been saving for a new accommodation project. This projeGI VAII b8

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ST MARTINS HOUSING TRUST** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of St Martins Housing Trust (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, 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 its incoming resources and application of resources, including its 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company 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 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 other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

## **ST MARTINS HOUSING TRUST** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ST MARTINS HOUSING TRUST (CONTINUED)** 

## **Opinion 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 including the Strategic Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. 

- the Trustees' Report and the Strategic Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of our 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 including the Strategic 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: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 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. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees' 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 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. 

## **Auditors' 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 Auditors' 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: 

The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are; to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the company. 

Page 17 



## **ST MARTINS HOUSING TRUST** 

## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ST MARTINS HOUSING TRUST (CONTINUED)** 

## Our approach was as follows: 

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charitable company and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financial Reporting Council. 

- We obtained an understanding of how the charitable company complies with these requirements by discussions with management and those charged with governance. 

- We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk of material  misstatement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with management and those  charged with governance. 

- We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non- compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- Based on this understanding, we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify instances of  noncompliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those charged with governance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required. 

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 Auditors' Report. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
