CHAIRMANS REPORT 24-2025

2024/25

My first task of this years report is to sadly announce the passing of one of our dear friends and long term volunteer Julie Hall, she will be sorely missed by all of her friends and colleagues.

The manager Pat Rowan retired on the 31 st January 2025 after 25 years of service to the charity, we now have a new manager in place Julie-Susan (Jools),Pat is now volunteering and helping Jools to settle in to her new post, she was welcomed by everyone we all wish her good luck and are helping her in any way possible.

We also have a new cook Gail Fox she has been welcome by staff volunteers and customers alike which is making it easier for her to understand the workings of our cafe

This financial year has been extremely challenging, we have had to stop the gardening and decorating project owing to the fact that we no longer have a driver. We hope to renew this work as and when we are able to get a new gardener/driver.

Although we have been able to keep up the food bank because of the donations from Tesco, Asda, & Greggs it is becoming more difficult as the donations have reduced over the last year.

The membership fee from FareShare has increased and the cost of Electricity and water have also risen making it very difficult to cover costs but the staff and volunteers are trying there very best to raise funds.

All in all it has been a very difficult year, I would like to offer my thanks to all staff, volunteers and placements your help and assistance over the year have been the reason we can carry on with our works in the community.

Stephen Cooper

Chairman

WELFARE RIGHTS REPORT:

The demand for our Welfare Rights service has increased over the last year, clients have continued to face longer waiting time for decisions on their claims. The number of reconsideration requests has also increased. The DWP now relies more on telephone assessments this can have an adverse effect on the awards especially when dealing with people with physical disabilities. Fortunately we have been able to get most of these decisions overturned, we are expecting to see a return to face to face assessments in the near future.

Of the 87 clients we have helped over the last year 65 were successful resulting in awards of arrears of more than £50,00 plus an average weekly gain of £79:00.

We would not be able to assist our clients without the valuable support which includes Andy and Vanessa, sadly owing to ill health Vanessa had to leave the charity but we wish her good health and happiness for the future.

Margaret Carnes.

Welfare Rights Supervisor

MANAGERS REPORT 2024 -2025

Although we have had a very difficult year being unable to keep the gardening and decorating service running, we have all pulled together to try and keep the centre open with the service continuing as we have in the past.

I retired on the 31st January 2025 but kept on in a voluntary role assisting the new manager Julie-Susan Wainright-Bateman. She has been in a volunteering for the charity since 2021.

We also welcomed a new cook into the fold this being Gail Fox.

Sadly we lost one of our long-term volunteers Julie Hall, she passed away on the 19 th February 2025, she will be missed by all that knew her.

Margaret Carnes our Welfare Rights Supervisor kept going running the service at a reduced rate owing to her assistant Vanessa having left owing to long term medical problems.

I would like to offer my thanks to all of the staff and volunteers that have helped me over the last 25 years dedicating many hours of volunteering in the kitchen these being Jeannette, Sonya, Lynne, Margaret Penny,and Denise, also Neil, Dave Andy andAshley for the countless hours they have volunteered keeping the reception and mobility scooter project running smoothly.

My thanks must also go to Chris who has worked tirelessly to make sure the banking and accounts are kept up to date.

If I have left anyone off the list I must sincerely apologise.

The second hand shop and tombola continue to bring in some revenue, I would like to thank all of the very kind people who have donated to our cause with furniture, clothes and bric-a-brac this has assisted us in our fund raising efforts.

We all continue with our efforts to keep the charity up and running so that we can help the vulnerable people of our community and although it is very difficult times we live and work in we do so with a smile.

Pat Rowan

Manager

COOKS-CAFE REPORT 24-2025

Although we have seen some difficult times over the last year the cafe has continued to thrive, we welcomed a new cook towards the end of the financial year (Gail Fox) and she has settled in very nicely.

Sadly our resident cook Julie Hall passed away in February 2025 she is missed by everyone.

I would like to take this opportunity to offer sincere thanks to all of the volunteers that assist in keeping the cafe and kitchen open

I would also like to thank Tesco, Asda, and Greggs for all of their donations of food that allow us to keep our food bank up and running.

GARDEN & DECORATING PROJECT REPORT 24/2025

The garden project ran up to the end of July 24 then sadly we lost Rob the new project supervisor and was without a gardener for the rest of the financial year,

We no longer have the decorating project this is owing to the fact that we have no driver.

We hope to set up a new gardening and decorating service in the very near future.

Pat Rowan

Manager

Financial review

TREASURERS REPORT 24/2025

In this financial year had some very sad news about a long term volunteer Julie Hall she passed away in February 2025. She is missed by all that knew her.

This year has been a very difficult time financially, the cafe continues to bring in a steady income as does the mobility scooters and second hand shop.

We had to close down the gardening and decorating projects, this was owing to the fact that we lost our volunteer driver at the end of July 24.

I would like to thank Pat and Chris for all of the time and commitment they have put in over the year, sadly Pat retired at the end of January but we welcomed our new manager Julie-Susan (Jools) also our new cook Gail.

I would like to thank The Welfare Rights Team, the kitchenstaff reception and admin that have once again shown that if we stick together as a team we can overcome the many problems that occur during the financial year.

I would also like to thank all those who very kindly gave donations be it in money, goods and time to make this year though not as profitable as we would like with their assistance we once again managed to survive another difficult year.

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

The Committee of Management, who are also the directors of Hull Council of Disabled People for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the Committee of Management to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.

The Committee of Management are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and a registered Charity. In accordance with the constitution of the Company, every member undertakes to contribute such amount as may be required (not exceeding £1) to the Company's assets if it were to be wound up. At 31 March 20 21 the members of the Company totalled 8 0 (20 20 - 82).

the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

3

the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

Accounting policies
Charity information

Hull Council of Disabled People is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 75 Ferensway, Hull, East Yorkshire, HU2 8LD, England.

1.1
Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a statement of cash flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

The operation of the Charity is dependent upon the provision of a bank overdraft which is to be reviewed in February 2017 and the renewal of the lease for the property with the Hull City Council. The Board of Trustees have considered the future operation and financial commitments of the Charity and are of the opinion that the Charity will continue to operate in its present form and be able to discharge its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future

1.3
Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Committee of Management in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
1.4
Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1.5
Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered.

Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in these categories. certain other costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on an appropriate basis.

1.6
Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Fixed assets costing less than £500 are written off to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year of purchase. Fixed assets costing more than £500 are initially recorded at cost in the balance sheet and depreciated over the estimated useful life.

Furniture & equipment
10% to 20% of cost
Motor vehicles
3 to 7 years straight line basis

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7
Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9
Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10
Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

2
Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Committee of Management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
