THE BRIGITTE TRUST (REGISTERED NUMBER: 01782730) |
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 |
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). |
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES |
Objectives and aims |
The Brigitte Trust is named after its founder Brigitte Watkin. The charity is proud to uphold Brigitte's original purpose, and its objectives are to: |
- Help people live well beyond diagnosis |
- Offer support to the client's carer and family as appropriate |
- Offer bereavement support; and |
- Operate in a professional manner ensuring the highest standards in all areas of activity. |
The service is entirely free to the clients and is provided through our team of highly trained and committed volunteers supported by salaried professional staff. It may be accessed: |
- From diagnosis |
- Through and/or after a course of treatment or surgery |
- Where the health or well-being of the client or carer is poor or support is needed to sustain the caring role |
- Towards the end of life |
- For bereavement support |
A professional management team recruits and trains the volunteers, manages the referrals process matching clients with the right volunteer to meet their needs, supports volunteers, and administers the work of the Trust, ensuring funding is secured. |
A volunteer Board of Trustees provides the necessary governance. |
Volunteers |
The Brigitte Trust upholds the highest standards of practice and care in all areas of its activity. All of our volunteers are interviewed both before the commencement of their training and after its completion, and all are DBS checked. A robust programme of support is in place. |
The Brigitte Trust is hugely grateful for the commitment and hard work of all the volunteers on whom the Trust relies. It is through their dedication, commitment and professionalism in supporting clients and their families at difficult times that the Brigitte Trust's values and ethos are best demonstrated. |
Each year we plan recruitment to increase our volunteer workforce. The Brigitte Trust is committed to equal opportunities and reflecting diversity in recruitment, service delivery and all other aspects of our work. |
The volunteers support people for a period of up to three hours every week. The support provided is wide-ranging and can include sitting quietly with a client, support with shopping, transport to medical appointments etc. However, our service goes far beyond befriending, with trained volunteers providing hugely important emotional, as well as practical support. |
Public benefit |
In accordance with Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, the Trustees have had due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit when reviewing the charity's activities and planning future activities. We consider that our service plays an important role in: |
- Supporting people to feel less socially isolated. Many of the people we support live alone and their Brigitte Trust volunteer might be the only or one of the very few people with whom they have regular contact |
- Reducing hospital admission/readmission. We pride ourselves that our service can help people who wish to die at home fulfil that wish wherever possible |
- Supporting the client/carer relationship by enabling the carer to take a break |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 |
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Charitable activities |
2021/22 has been another busy and exceptional year with Covid-19 still impacting our core work. A number of new services became operational. We also rebranded and launched our new logo, website and associated literature. |
Highlights include: |
- rebrand launched |
- started to provide Bereavement Support Groups |
- launched Coffin Club Surrey |
- started to run Death Cafés |
- planned our first End of Life Care Matters Marketplace that took place on 5th May 2022 |
With Covid-19 restrictions still in place in the early part of the financial year we continued offering phone support to a wider group of clients across Surrey. We ceased this wider support in Summer 2021 and returned to our core clientele and face to face visiting. Our Neurological Support Group has continued to run by Zoom as this suits these clients better and opens it up to a wider group across the county. |
Tanya Stafford joined our team in April 2021 as our Engagement, Fundraising & Promotions Lead and we welcomed Claire Foard to our team as Administration Assistant in September. |
Our Clients |
During the early part of 2021/22 in response to the pandemic we continued to widen our criteria to provide telephone support to any adult in Surrey who was lonely, isolated, in low mood, bereaved, a carer or anyone in need of support. In August 2021 we started our Bereavement Support Group. As a result our client profile was as follows: 26% of clients were Covid-19 support related, 25% bereavement support, diagnosis of cancer 35%, neurological conditions 10% and other end stage illnesses such as respiratory disease, heart and renal failure 4% |
We supported a wide age demographic with a range of between 18-100+, however 60% were aged over 60. |
Our volunteers |
During the year we had a total of 168 volunteers. We did recruit and retain around 19 volunteers who came to us as a result to Covid. As restrictions eased a number of phone volunteers returned to work and gave up their volunteering. We also found that a number of our longer standing volunteers were reviewing their position and as a result we lost some volunteers. By March 2022 following a review we had around 80 active volunteers. |
Referrals |
Over the years The Brigitte Trust has built strong partnerships with local providers, including hospices, hospitals, social care and other community-based services many of whom make regular referrals into our service. We are committed to building upon these partnerships and working closely with other organisations who work with the people we support. |
New Services |
We started a number of new services in 2021/22. These include establishing a robust and structured bereavement support programme. This is an 8-week structured programme led by an external facilitator. From August '21 we ran 6 programmes in different towns across Surrey. We have had excellent feedback from these sessions. |
We affiliated to Coffin Club UK and ran our first Coffin Club Surrey in January 2022. This is a 6-week course to learn about your different funeral options and make plans. There is also an optional coffin decorating workshop. |
We have also started to host Death Cafés in different parts of the County. These are proving to be popular and an opportunity to have an open and honest conversation about death and dying over a cup of coffee and cake. |
Future plans |
Going forward we plan to continue growing and developing our new services; Bereavement Support Groups, Coffin Club Surrey and Death Cafés. We are also going to host an annual End of Life Matters Marketplace event. We are also going to train a small group of our volunteers to make memory books for our clients. We would also like to develop a Spa at Home service for people who are housebound. |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 |
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Funding |
Surrey Heartlands Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) continued to provide the Trust with core funding and we wish to acknowledge this and thank them for their continued support for our work. This funding allows us to provide support across all of Surrey: |
- East Surrey |
- Guildford & Waverley |
- North West Surrey |
- Surrey Downs |
- Surrey Heath |
- Farnham |
Beyond the core funding received from the CCG, the Trust has successfully sought funding from corporate partners and legacies, fundraising initiatives, gifting and stakeholder donations as well as a range of grant giving foundations. |
We are grateful for our donors for their support this year, including: |
- National Lottery Awards for All |
- Hospital Saturday Fund |
- Woking Borough Council |
- Elmbridge Borough Council |
- Godalming Town Council |
FINANCIAL REVIEW |
The Financial Results for the Year |
The Trust made a deficit of £30,264 (2021: surplus of £106,697), which was due to three main factors. Firstly we invested in the expansion of the core team to handle increased activity, secondly we invested in new service developments and finally we experienced a tougher climate for grant funding than in preceding years. However, we did receive a substantial legacy, and our fundraising efforts and donations remained strong given that there were fewer events due to Covid. |
Reserves policy |
Having taken account of: |
- a closure contingency |
- a need to provide liquidity in the day to day management of the Trust; and |
- funding for future growth prospects, |
the Trustees continue to agree that unrestricted reserves should not fall below a minimum of six months' running costs. We have drawn on some of our reserves this year in order to take forward the new services such as the Bereavement Support Groups and Coffin Club Surrey. |
Our running costs for current activities are projected to be £227,000 in the next financial year implying a minimum reserve figure of £133,500. |
The surplus of unrestricted funds over the minimum will be used to support the new initiatives planned for by the Trust as outlined in the Future Plans section of this report as well as other as yet unidentified future initiatives. |

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF |
THE BRIGITTE TRUST |
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Brigitte Trust ('the Company') |
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022. |
Responsibilities and basis of report |
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). |
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. |
Independent examiner's statement |
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: |
1. | accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or |
2. | the accounts do not accord with those records; or |
3. | the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or |
4. | the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). |
I have no concerns and 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. |

1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. |
Income and grants |
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Investment income is recorded when receivable. |
Gift Aid reclaimable on donations to the Trust is included with the amount received. |
Grants are recognised when the entitlement to the grant is confirmed. Revenue based grants are recognised in the period in which the related costs are incurred. |
Expenditure |
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. |
Governance costs |
Governance costs are those incurred in relation to the administration of the Trust and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Office equipment | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Computer equipment | - |
Taxation |
As the Trust's aims are charitable, no corporation tax liability arises for the year. |
Fund accounting |
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. |
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Expenditure which meets those criteria is allocated to that fund. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. |
