Structure, governance and management
Governing Document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 11th January 1983 and registered as a charity on 14th October 1983. The association was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.
Recruitment and Appointment to the Board
The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purpose of charity law and under the company's Articles are known as Board Members. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and the Articles of Association the Board are elected to serve for a period of three years after which they may be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting.
Sandwell is a very diverse area with a wide range of cultures and religions being represented. The Board seeks to ensure that the needs of service users are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustees elected to the board.
Trustee Induction and Training
New Board Members are invited to meet the board in order that they may get a feel for the organisation and to understand the obligations of becoming a Board Member. After their attendance at this meeting if they wish to pursue their application further applicants are invited to visit the projects to meet staff and beneficiaries. Following this new Trustees may be appointed by the Board and will then be provided with further opportunities for induction and training. Trustees contribute their time and skills at Board Meetings and with other projects requiring trustee involvement and calling upon their particular expertise.
Members of the Board
During the year one Board Member resigned. On 3rd March 2021 Bhupendra Patel resigned after having served on the Board since November 2018. The remaining members of the Board wish to thank Bhupendra for his contribution over the preceding 3 years.
On 30th July 2020 Kathryn Brooks was appointed as chair of the Board and Nick Burton was appointed as vice chair. The Board extends its thanks to Michael Roland Watkins for his service as chair over more than 30 years.
Board members as at 31st March 2021;
- Michael Roland WATKINS, director since March 1983
- Penelope MERRETT, director since December 2016
- William HUGHES, director since June 2009
- Sophia POWELL, director since November 2018
- Nick BURTON (Vice Chair), director since January 2019
- Kathryn BROOKS (Chair), director since November 2018
The position of company secretary was vacant at year end, this having been held by Stephen Charles Woods who undertook this role alongside his position as Chief Executive Officer until his resignation from both roles on 19th March 2021.
Risk Management
The Board has drawn up a risk register which provides details of actions to be taken to reduce risk. The risk register is reviewed and updated by the Board regularly. The charity also purchases a range of insurance policies.
Organisational Structure
Sandwell Homeless and Resettlement Project has a Board of up to 10 members who meet every two months and who are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. SHARP embraces the Equality Act 2010 and recruits Board members from any background and with any of the 9 protected characteristics described within the Act. At present the Board has 6 members.
Day-to-day responsibility for the provision of operations, services and financial probity is delegated by the Board to the Senior Officers employed by SHARP. These senior officers are responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that the charity meets its obligations and aspirations.
At year end a Head of Care and Community was in place, supported by two project managers, one for The Gap project and one for The Gables, Crown House and Community Support. The board was reviewing the management structure following the CEO's departure and in order to appropriately site the duties not covered within these individual roles, in particular the finance and business functions of the organisation which were at that point covered via interim arrangements.
Objectives and activities
Objectives
The Charity's objects and principal activities are to:
Care for persons in need, who are homeless or who by reason of adverse circumstances are in need of help in acquiring a settled way of life through the establishment of residential accommodation and to assist these persons so as to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities that they may develop full maturity as responsible individuals and members of society and that their conditions of life may be improved.
The main objectives and activities for the year continue to focus upon helping people who are homeless to find appropriate accommodation, either within SHARP or elsewhere, offer them support and advice to enable them to manage their accommodation and to enjoy a reasonable quality of life.
The strategies employed to assist the charity to meet these objectives include, but not exhaustively, the following;
- Provide accommodation of good quality for homeless people in Sandwell
- Provide a service for homeless people in Sandwell and signposting to other agencies as appropriate giving information on vacancies and support where available in Sandwell
- Provide the support necessary to enable service users to manage their own accommodation successfully
- Involve service users in the development of their personal support plans, which include attainable targets, regular reviews and flexibility to enable and embrace change
- Train service users to use the internet to allow them to access a number of online activities such as bidding for a home, finding a job and registering for universal credit
- Liaise with local housing providers concerning housing and other needs of service users
- Research the housing needs of homeless people
- Register with Homes England to become a registered social landlord
- Participate proactively with local initiatives including Sandwell Council of Voluntary Organisations, and Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council
Activities
Crown House
Crown House is based at Green Street, Oldbury, West Midlands, B69 4JP. Crown House offers short, medium and long-term accommodation and support for up to 18 single homeless people. Crown House is owned by a private landlord and SHARP leases the whole building from the Landlord on a short term commercial lease.
The GAP Supported Housing Project
The GAP project consists of 30 furnished one bedroom flats at Selby House, Wallace Close, Oldbury, West Midlands, B69 1HW. GAP offers accommodation and support to teenage parents and their children. The property is owned by Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and managed through a contractual arrangement by SHARP.
Community Floating Support & Spot Purchasing
SHARP provides floating support through a contract and specialist support through spot purchasing to people with complex needs and who are hard to reach. The support service goes from strength to strength and we have been able to provide support for extra service users this year.
247 & 247a Barclay Road, Smethwick
Barclay Road offers accommodation and support through two self-contained apartments. The freehold of Barclay Road is owned by SHARP.
The Gables
During the year 2020/2021 SHARP completed the refurbishment of The Gables. This former care home, purchased by SHARP in 2019 has been converted to a 19 bed direct access hostel and welcomed its first guests on 21st December 2020 under Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council's (SMBC) Severe Winter Emergency Provisions (SWEP).
Achievements and performance
Crown House
Crown House has supported 24 people during the year, (the coronavirus situation reduced our move on capabilities and hence there was a lower turnaround than usual). 10 of these people are long term occupants. Of those departing Crown House 2 residents abandoned the accommodation, 2 people moved into independent accommodation, there was 1 transfer to a psychiatric hospital, 1 return to the family home after several years of estrangement and sadly 2 deaths due to ongoing health concerns (not covid or substance misuse).
The GAP supported housing project
During the year we supported 32 young parents (this being 29 single mums and 3 couples) and 37 children. 16 families moved on successfully from the Project. 10 moved into Local Authority accommodation with outreach support provided for 6 weeks. 3 moved into Housing Association accommodation with outreach support for 6 weeks. 1 family moved to live with a friend and 2 residents moved to family members.
Community Floating Support & Spot Purchasing
We were able to maintain our support hours & visits despite the coronavirus pandemic. This supported 15 people funded by the SMBC Commissioning Team and an average of 11 people paying for our services through Direct Payments or Spot Purchase). We delivered on average approximately 88 hours of weekly support (4576 per annum).
247 & 247a Barclay Road, Smethwick
We have two new residents at Barclay Road, they both receive community support to help them to live independently in the community.
The Gables
Following its opening on 21st December the Gables has provided much needed accommodation over the winter months for 28 individuals who were otherwise street homeless and sleeping rough. Of these 5 were in residence at the year end.
Financial review
Responsibilities of the Board
The Board is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charitable company to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. The Board is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and any other irregularities.
Investment Policy
Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to invest in the interest of the charity and/or its beneficiaries. The Board, having regard to the liquidity requirements of the organisation and to the reserves policy, have operated a policy of keeping available funds in an interest bearing deposit account and seek to achieve a rate of deposit interest which matches or exceeds inflation as measured by the retail prices index.
Reserves Policy
Having examined the circumstances facing the charity and its future income and expenditure patterns the trustees have established that a prudent level of reserves for the charity to hold would be equivalent to three month's salary costs (including tax and NI costs) plus a sum to cover exceptional costs related to closure / transfer of the charity - as at April 2021 the former figure would amount to £112,000 whilst the latter figure was set at £35,000. At year end reserves had fallen significantly below this level due to the Gables refurbishment. As such SHARP will seek to gradually rebuild its reserves over the next three years in order to return to this level.
Review of the year April 2020 to March 2021
The most significant event during the year was the refurbishment and opening of The Gables. This former care home is owned by SHARP having been acquired in November 2019.
The building has now been converted into a 19 bedroom (all with en-suite facilities) direct access hostel. Planning permission has also been granted for the siting of four sleeping pods in the grounds. These pods have been ordered and are due to be installed early in 2021/2022. The pods supplied by "Amazing Grace Spaces" will provide a safe space to sleep as an emergency provision when the hostel is fully occupied, or for rough sleepers who may be reluctant or otherwise unable to immediately access the hostel provision
The contractor M&M Damproof Ltd was engaged to undertake the conversion of The Gables and handover in December 2020 which meant that our first beneficiaries were able to access the hostel under the Severe Winter Emergency Provisions just before Christmas.
The build however was not without its challenges and has significantly drained SHARP's reserves. These are currently below the level that we have determined to be prudent. As such SHARP is working to secure a loan charged against the Gables to begin to replenish our reserves and stabilise cash flows. SHARP is also negotiating with SMBC to secure Supported Exempt Accommodation status and agree a housing benefit figure in order to transition to housing benefit when the existing SWEP arrangements end at the Gables.
During the year SHARP submitted an initial application to become registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) but subsequently withdrew the application to consolidate its delivery and
concentrate on delivering the new provision at The Gables. It is anticipated that a new application will be made in the coming financial year
In March 2021 SHARP's Chief Executive Officer resigned from his role following a period of ill health. SHARP extends its thanks to the Chief Executive for his time with SHARP. As at year end the Board was reviewing its management structure in order to move forward following this resignation.
Plans for 2021-22
Following a successful but challenging year with navigating Covid, opening the Gables, the departure of our CEO, and work to secure our financial arrangements we are keen to consolidate and refine our existing offer whilst also exploring further developments. A key task will be to replenish our reserves and then maintain those at the level deemed prudent as identified above. This will involve finalising the aforementioned loan and the housing benefit situation at the Gables. We will also explore potential joint working with the council around a drop in facility at the Gables, explore links with the community, develop our catering arrangements and extend the range of support provisions available including education training and employment ventures.
We are also keen to reapply and secure CQC registration and thence to expand our community support offer to one of care and support. Further we will seek to discuss with the local authority the arrangements at The Gap, potentially exploring a long-term lease and / or expanded referral, criteria to enable us to meet the needs of a wider group of families
Further we wish to invest in our staff team who have done an amazing job keeping things running throughout Covid. This will include consolidating a new management team, further building a one organisation ethos, becoming an employer of choice, ensuring that our training offer develops to meet the needs of any new initiatives we develop and we hope also fulfilling our desire to pay the real living wage.
Accounts
Company law requires the Board to prepare financial statements for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Board follows best practice by;
- Selecting suitable accounting policies and then applying them consistently
- Making judgements and estimates that are prudent and reasonable: and
- Preparing the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis
The Board is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. The Board is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Members of the Board
Members of the Board, who are directors for the purpose of company law and trustees for the purpose of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1.
In accordance with company law, as the company's Directors, we certify that:

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
|
Year ended 31 March 2021
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of
Sandwell Homeless and Resettlement Project Limited
('the charity') for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements 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 the 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
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
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 charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2.
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 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 financial statements 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.
