SUTTON VISION | |||||||
REPORT OF THE CHAIR | |||||||
for the year ended 31 March 2022 | |||||||
The 2021/22 financial year has been positive for Sutton Vision. It marked the launch of our flagship project with Big Lottery in June 2021 and the appointment in January 2022 of our General Operations Manager, Denise Crone. We also successfully raised funds to close our funding gap and generated a small surplus. We wish to thank all of our funders including: The National Lottery Community Fund, Community Action Sutton, London Borough of Sutton and Vision Foundation as well as Magic Little Grants, Albert Hunt, Greater London Authority and Arnold Clark for their ongoing support and for giving us the ability to deliver our critical services to our residents. However, further funding is still vital to Sutton Vision to keep our core services running. Due to the ongoing challenge in securing unrestricted and multi-year funding, we continue to need grants to close our funding gap as demand for services continues to increase. Despite continued COVID-19 restrictions in much of 2021, we have taken opportunities, where possible, to restart face to face services, such as social groups and the Low Vision Clinic. With the Lottery project, our team grew in August 2021 with the appointment of our full-time Outreach Officer who is increasing our reach and awareness in the community. Alongside this, we continue to see growth in the number of people accessing our Assistive Technology services. This service has had a significant impact for our beneficiaries and is supported by our new Tech Social group. I would like to thank our staff and our group of dedicated volunteers, who together have made this year a massive success. I would also like to thank the Board of Trustees, who have ensured we have continued to govern and grow the charity for the benefit of our wonderful community. Finally, Michael Pettit retired as a valued Trustee and Treasurer from Sutton Vision after a long tenure. We owe Mike a huge debt of gratitude for his dedication and hard work. We wish him all the best in his retirement. |

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT The Association is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 6" March 2002. Every member of the charity undertakes to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such members at 31st March 2022 was seven (2021 — eight). The members of the Executive Committee who served during the year are set out on page 2. The Executive Committee has overall responsibility for the strategic direction and governance of the charity. Day-to-day matters are delegated to the charity's Chief Officer/General Operations Manager. The Chief Officer/General Operations Manager is not a member of the Executive Committee. RISK MANAGEMENT The members of the Executive Committee have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. |
||||||||
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES To promote and improve the welfare of blind and partially sighted persons resident in the administrative area of the London Borough of Sutton. Core services are provided to ensure the needs of blind and partially sighted people in the London Borough of Sutton are met. These core services include: • Information and support through our Low Vision Clinic • Social and educational groups • Assistive Technology support and access to equipment through our Technology Resource Hub • Early intervention support at the Hospital (Eye Clinic Liaison Officer – ECLO) • Providing general information, signposting to local providers and support • Wellbeing including befriending, home visits and workshops • Maintaining a strong peer support network |
||||||||
STRATEGIC REPORT ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE The 2021/22 year has been a year of growth and expansion for Sutton Vision. As COVID restrictions came to an end across England, Sutton Vision remained cognisant that those both using our services and many of our volunteers remained vulnerable to COVID. The challenge for us (as it was for many in a similar situation) was how to adapt in a more permanent fashion to this environment. Our response has been to offer many of our services in a hybrid format. People can attend in-person, or switch to a virtual appointment, should they need to. Sutton Vision, as a community hub, continues to provide unique services which include the Eye Clinic Liaison Officer (ECLO) based at St Helier Hospital and the Low Vision Clinic which provides up to one hour specialist consultations which are not currently provided by the NHS. Sutton Vision provides critical services for the health and wellbeing of the Sutton community that are not otherwise available through other channels. |
||||||||
The performance reports for the financial year ended 31st March 2022 show the following, as compared with the results for the year ended 31st March 2021 and the year ended 31st March 2020. |

(*Activity is defined as events and appointments relating to our services including: Low Vision Clinic, Eye Clinic Liaison work, Assistive Technology, Social Groups and Befriending) | ||||||||
A narrative providing performance against 2021/22 is provided below: A major achievement was the successful fundraising application, implementation phase and launch of our Big Lottery funded Community Horizons project. Our funding began in June 2021 with a 6-month implementation phase where we recruited staff, established our project plan and updated the equipment and physical space in the Technology Resource Hub. We began full project delivery from 1st December 2021 and were fortunate to be able to make the most of a short relaxation in COVID restrictions to hold an official launch by the Mayor of Sutton in December 2021. |
||||||||
1. Outreach & Community work One of our key objectives is to extend our reach and broaden the demographic of our service users. Whilst the nature of many sight loss conditions will mean that our service users are predominantly older people, we are taking steps to ensure we embrace the diversity of the Sutton community and reflect it within our audience. We have developed relationships with local community groups and are members of Community Voices an established group which feeds into the new Integrated Care Board. This has given us links into work with St. Mungo’s (who support homeless people) and People Arise (who work with ex-offenders and families of offenders). We have organised and attended community events located in areas of the borough with greater ethnic diversity and where there are higher levels of socio-economic need, such as Wallington and the northern wards. We have built referral partnerships with Age UK Sutton (and have established links with the new Community Connect project also funded through the Big Lottery) and with Sutton Carers Centre and we are an official referral organisation used by the Citizens Advice Bureau who are managing the London Borough of Sutton SPA (single point of access service). We were involved in community events including an Asian Sports and Cultural event at Hill House, Morden and an older people’s day at Trinity Church. |
||||||||
2. Social groups and Peer to Peer services We restarted our social activities and face to face support after Christmas as COVID restrictions eased. To ensure that people remained safe we limited numbers attending. Naturally, people have been cautious about returning to group activities and so we have established new groups slowly, building up numbers gradually and introducing groups on a monthly rather than weekly basis. As in previous years, we have run a programme of social activities throughout the week including coffee mornings, Scrabble, arts and crafts, drop-in technology clinics and quizzes and this year was no exception. In 2021/22, our new groups included a Charles Bonnet support group, a Macular Disease support group (run in partnership with the local Macular Disease Society), Working Age Social and VI Able (a group for young people aged 18 – 30). We also partnered with other organisations who provide sport and fitness groups. In total we organised 94 separate group sessions in the year with 520 people attending. |
||||||||
3. Assistive Technology and Resource Centre Our expert Assistive Technology Co-ordinator helps our beneficiaries get more from their smartphones, tablets or computers by accessing helpful features such as controlling your device by voice, screen reading to read text aloud and magnifying text, making it easier to read. With thanks to the Lottery, we now have a fully equipped resource hub where people can “try before they buy” laptops, mobile phones and other smart devices to improve day-to-day living. We also have demonstration equipment (like Alexa) for the home, such as lighting, telephones and kitchen devices that will help with reading, cooking and other daily tasks. This year, we offered 244 beneficiaries 1:1 tech support either over the phone, in their own home or in our Technology Resource Hub (often more than one session was required so this number does include repeat visits for some individuals). |
||||||||
4. Low Vision Clinic (LVC) Emerging from COVID restrictions has enabled us to offer a hybrid approach to our LVC appointments which include a free assessment to support people with visual impairments either face to face or over the phone. During the appointment, our optometrist will assess sight capabilities and prescribe visual and reading aids as required. There is also a private consultation to address any concerns and support with sight-related difficulties, including managing at home. The service is self-referral, that doesn’t need a GP’s letter, but the person must be diagnosed with low vision by an optometrist and live within the London Borough of Sutton. Our commitment this year was to provide appointments within three working days and this target was met. Over the year we carried out 20 in-person clinics; we also supported 26 beneficiaries with domiciliary and remote appointments, and in total we supported 180 beneficiaries. We delivered advice across 452 separate calls and appointments during the year, providing valuable support, referrals, signposting and advice. Impact reporting shows that the issue of free magnifiers, UV shields and other visual aid equipment improves reading, watching television, shopping, navigating public transport and protection from glare for our beneficiaries. |
||||||||
5. Early intervention support at the Hospital (Eye Clinic Liaison Officer – ECLO) Our ECLO works at both St Helier Hospital and at our Sutton Vision office and is available for appointments and telephone calls to discuss treatment and requirements. Over the year, our dedicated ECLO has provided emotional and practical support for 338 people diagnosed with a sight loss condition (244 in-person and 94 remotely). |
||||||||
6. Wellbeing and Befriending Being told you have sight loss can be a worrying and confusing time for individuals, as well as for their friends and family. At Sutton Vision, we provide a range of information and advice about services, support and benefits available. We also have a team of volunteer befrienders and walking buddies who provide support in a variety of ways which include weekly befriending calls, in-home help with reading the post or simply going for a walk, coffee and chat. We also run peer support groups which meet at our office on a regular basis. We had 40 beneficiaries who received weekly, fortnightly or monthly befriending calls and visits during the year. We carried out 1,604 of these activities during the year. |
||||||||
7. Impact measurement The whole Sutton Vision team has taken part in training to use the Outcomes StarTM(VIP StarTM). This is a nationally recognised outcomes tool which enables us to measure the impact of our work. We implemented the VIP Star as part of our lottery funded project as it has been specially developed to measure outcomes for people with a visual impairment. Each Star is completed in partnership with the individual beneficiary and involves action planning as well as reflection and feedback. This not only provides data for us on the impact of our work but also helps individuals to reflect on their own goals and achievements. |
||||||||
8. Engagement and marketing Sutton Vision continues to operate online profiles on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Our aim has been to use different social media platforms to grow our reach to new, younger and more diverse audiences. The year has been about establishing a presence and building an audience. |

We are looking forward to growing our engagement from this baseline. We now publish our 'CONTACT' magazine quarterly and are looking at a monthly e-newsletter to increase our communication with the Sutton Vision community. The content for CONTACT is developed from beneficiary and voluntary submissions and feedback, staff content and activities and it is edited by a Trustee. We publish CONTACT via the Sutton Talking News, posted in print and via email (both with and without pictures). |
||||||||
9. Fundraising Since February 2020, we have developed some good relationships with Trusts and Foundations, as well as receiving a 3-year grant from The National Lottery, Community Fund. In November 2021, our Chief Officer (and lead fundraiser) left Sutton Vision. This resulted in the transfer of responsibility for fundraising back to the Trustees. Two applications were submitted between November and March, with both being successful; however, the Trustees know that fundraising and developing a financially sustainable Sutton Vision must be a priority for the next year and beyond. |
||||||||
FINANCIAL REVIEW The Charity made a surplus for the year of £13,540 (2021 - £3,814). INVESTMENT POLICY The charity does not have a formal investment policy. It endeavours to obtain the best possible return on its investments and cash balances. RESERVES POLICY It is the policy of the charity to maintain both restricted and unrestricted funds. The restricted funds are as a result of funding having been secured with limitations on its use, such as specific grant applications. These reserves will vary from year to year according to the success of individual grant applications. The unrestricted funds are free reserves that have been built up over time to cover future expenditure on projects and to meet future running costs. It is considered that the minimum total of the restricted and unrestricted reserve to be held at any one time should equate to at least six months running costs. |
||||||||
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE The Sutton Vision Board of Trustees has consulted with members, staff, volunteers and key stakeholders to develop the priorities for the next financial year and also the longer term: 1. Financial sustainability: Our primary aim is to develop sustainable funding for the charity for the long-term. Over the next few years, we plan to develop new funding streams, including individual giving and legacies, and to build multi-year funding grants from Trusts and Foundations, as well as to develop funding and sponsorship from local corporates active in the Sutton community. Meanwhile we will continue to ensure we maximise cost effectiveness and continue to develop our volunteering base. |
||||||||
2. Activities Sutton has a population of about 200,000, of whom about 5,940 residents are living with a visual impairment. This is predicted to grow by about 25% over the next 10 years due to a range of factors, including an ageing population and the greater susceptibility of older people to eye conditions like cataract, presbyopia, glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration. The actual figure could be as much as three times higher due to people experiencing sight loss who don’t register with the local authority. We will continue to put the beneficiaries at the heart of our service delivery and to develop new services with their feedback and direction. We are committed to increasing our reach, growing the diversity of our audience to reflect the diversity of the Sutton community. We are currently exploring the expansion of our service delivery by including a ‘Care for Your Eyes’ prevention campaign and to operate as a ‘warm bank’ for our beneficiaries that are heavily impacted by the cost of living and energy crisis over the 2022/23 winter. |
||||||||
RESPONSIBILITIES OF MEMBERS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Charity and company law requires members of the Executive Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and its incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure for the year. In preparing those financial statements, the members of the Executive Committee are required to:- (a) Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. (b) Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. (c) Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. The members of the Executive Committee are responsible for having proper accounting records kept, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements 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. |
||||||||
PUBLIC BENEFIT REQUIREMENT The Trustees have complied with the duty in Section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission concerning the public benefit requirement. |
||||||||

1 | Accounting policies | |||||||
Basis of preparation | ||||||||
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 applicable in the UK and Ireland (effective January 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard 102 applicable in the UK and Ireland (revised September 2015), the Charities Act 2011 and with the Companies Act 2006. |
||||||||
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty | ||||||||
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. | ||||||||
Fund structure | ||||||||
Funds held by the charity are either: • Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees. • Restricted funds - these are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. |
||||||||
Income recognition | ||||||||
|
||||||||
Expenditure recognition | ||||||||
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 settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. |
||||||||
Pensions | ||||||||
|
||||||||
Fixed Asset Investments | ||||||||
The charity does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments. The main form of financial risk faced by the charity is that of volatility in equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic conditions. |
