The Tudor Trust
The Tudor Trust has published new guidelines covering the period April 2009 to March 2011. The Trust aims to support work that addresses ‘the social, emotional and financial needs of people at the margins of society’. It is interested in how organisations tackle the needs and the root causes. The Trust funds work across the UK dealing with a range of issues: young people; older people; community needs; relationships; housing; mental health; substance misuse; learning; financial security; criminal justice. Grants can cover core funding, development funding, projects, capital grants or mix of them.

There is a two-stage application process. First-stage applications are dealt with as received. It should take less than a month for an initial decision to be made, and if you are successful you will be given a named contact to help you develop the next stage of your bid. It will take another three months or so to make a decision from this point. The full guidelines are available here.

Government

Third sector response to Budget 2009
WCVA has welcomed the steps announced to tackle economic inactivity, and has encouraged a stronger Government partnership with voluntary organisations to support people back into the workplace. WCVA Chief Executive Graham Benfield OBE commented: ‘In the current climate, people facing the greatest challenges getting into work are going to need more support. ‘Our message is that voluntary organisations are very often best placed to work with economically inactive groups and help them make progress towards employment.’

WCVA has recently launched two flagship schemes – the Engagement Gateway and Intermediate Labour Market – which will offer contracts to organisations to provide people with the skills, confidence and opportunities to get back into work. ‘We envisage voluntary organisations across Wales contributing to these schemes and demonstrating the value of the third sector during an economic downturn,’ added Mr Benfield.

Government reconsiders rules for charitable incorporated organisations
The Government is to amend its plans for the rules on charitable incorporated organisations in time to introduce the new legal form in April next year. The planned changes come after a consultation with the sector on the draft regulations for CIOs, created by the Charities Act 2006 as a simpler route to incorporation.

The Office of the Third Sector would publish a summary of the consultation and a timetable for the introduction of CIOs next month. At present, charities that are companies have to report to the Charity Commission and Companies House. CIOs will have the benefits of incorporation and report only to the commission.

Tough times: management and funding challenges in – and beyond – the recession
14 May, Parc Hotel, Cardiff
Without doubt, the recession will test all sectors in unprecedented ways. More than ever, we need to learn fast, and from each other. There are no magic spells to ward off the storm – but organisations that manage well, by assessing risks and planning how to meet them, may even emerge in a better relative position than before.

Contribute to debates with the Assembly and key public sector agencies on how they intend to fulfil commitments on sector support and funding, made in more prosperous times. Access practical guidance on helping your organisation to meet the challenges ahead.

Gift Aid and tax legislation for charities
HM Revenue and Customs has updated the web list of statutory references relating to charities and Community Amateur Sports Clubs, covering tax exemptions, Gift Aid and other giving, see web link http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/legislation.htm.

The specimen Gift Aid Declaration Forms have been amended in respect of the requirement that donors must pay sufficient amounts of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax. A4 version at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/appendix_b1.pdf, A5 at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/appendix_b3.pdf.

Optimism around payroll giving despite recession
Charities are expressing cautious optimism about the future of payroll giving amid a rebrand of the Give As You Earn campaign by the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF). A spokesman for CAF told Professional Fundraising that the organisation has not seen any impact from the recession or rising unemployment figures and participation levels in its payroll scheme – the largest in operation – which remains steady at 445,000 donors. CAF will launch a new direct marketing campaign for Give As You Earn in May.

Charities too, it seems, are resisting panic about payroll giving income. Anne Fisher, payroll giving co-ordinator for the RNIB and treasurer of the Institute of Fundraising’s special interest group on payroll, told Professional Fundraising that she had negotiated payroll income targets at the same level as last year but added: "It’s logical that it could grow despite the recession." She said: "I am still optimistic. Income hasn’t been affected yet," but conceded recruitment for the charity has dropped and the nature of the payroll giving system could mean that any impact on donors may not be felt for a few months.

Loan finance

Charities invest heavily in micro-finance Triodos fund
Charities are among the largest investors in a micro-finance fund launched this month by social lender Triodos Bank. The £20m fund, which will invest in small businesses in developing countries, received 'anchor' investment from voluntary organisations including not-for-profit fund manager CCLA and grant-maker the Waterloo Foundation. Alex Connor, investor relations manager at Triodos, said there was a lot of interest in the fund from private and charitable investors, and said she hoped it would grow to £100m by 2010.

Research on awareness and perception of the social enterprise sector in Wales
The data from the questionnaire will inform part of the research currently being undertaken by a team from the University of Glamorgan. They are investigating current awareness and perceptions of social enterprise in Wales and the support needs of emerging and existing social enterprises in Wales. The research will inform both the marketing for, and the delivery of, a major new support service for the development of social enterprise in Wales and has been commissioned by the Wales Co-operative Centre. All responses are completely confidential and will only be seen by the research team. If you have any further questions about this research, please contact Penny Byrne, Programme for Community Regeneration, University of Glamorgan. Tel 01443 483680, email pbyrne@glam.ac.uk.

Click on the link to the questionnaire.
A Welsh language version of this questionnaire is available upon request.

Website will link donors with social enterprises
A new online application that will help the public to find out about and support social enterprises is being developed by the social entrepreneur networking site UnLtdWorld. An application called UnLtdWorld Exchange will allow users to locate projects and offer them time, skills or funding. The application is in the early stages of development.

New rules make it easier for charities to calculate VAT reclamation
Charities that run business activities will find it easier to calculate the percentage of VAT they can reclaim under new rules made by HM Revenue & Customs. The new partial exemption rules, which came into effect from 1 April, allow charities to calculate VAT based on estimates from the previous year, then make an adjustment at the end, rather than having to make exact calculations in each VAT return. They also allow charities that are new to the rules to calculate their payments based on provisional calculations, rather than having to wait until the end of the year to reclaim any VAT.

A spokeswoman for umbrella body the Charity Finance Directors' Group said her organisation supported the changes HMRC had made, but it should make sure they did not increase the fear charities had of getting involved in tax recovery. "HMRC should recognise that the real difficulty of this area lies in gathering the data and in allocating income and expenditure between business and non-business," she said. HMRC is still considering whether to do away with any distinction between exempt and non-business activities for VAT purposes.

Procurement and public service delivery

Gateway and ILM deadlines approaching
Organisations interested in benefiting from the Engagement Gateway and Intermediate Labour Market (ILM) have a short time left to confirm their eligibility to tender for contracts under the schemes.

Organisations wishing to receive details of appropriate opportunities, and be eligible to tender for contracts, need to join the approved supplier list for each scheme by submitting a pre qualification questionnaire (PQQ). The deadline for submitting a PQQ is noon on Friday 15 May for the Gateway, and noon on Tuesday 2 June for the ILM.

Both schemes will offer contracts of up to £150,000, and are funded by the Welsh Assembly Government and European Structural Funds (European Social Fund).

Y Llywodraeth

Ymateb y trydydd sector i Gyllideb 2009
Mae WCVA wedi croesawu’r camau a gyhoeddwyd i fynd i’r afael ag anweithgarwch economaidd, ac wedi annog partneriaeth gryfach rhwng Llywodraeth a mudiadau gwirfoddol i gefnogi pobl yn ôl i’r gweithle.Dyma oedd gan Graham Benfield OBE, Prif Weithredwr WCVA, i'w ddweud: ‘Yn yr hinsawdd bresennol, bydd angen mwy o gefnogaeth ar y bobl sy’n wynebu’r sialensiau mwyaf o ran cael gwaith. ‘Ein neges yw bod mudiadau gwirfoddol yn aml yn y sefyllfa orau i weithio gyda grwpiau economaidd anweithgar a’u helpu i symud ymlaen at gyflogaeth.’

Mae WCVA wedi lansio dau gynllun arloesol yn ddiweddar – y Porth Ymgysylltu a Marchnad Lafur Drosiannol – a fydd yn cynnig contractau i fudiadau i arfogi pobl â’r sgiliau, yr hyder a’r cyfleoedd i ddychwelyd i waith. ‘Rydym yn rhagweld mudiadau gwirfoddol ledled Cymru yn cyfrannu at y cynlluniau hyn ac yn dangos gwerth y trydydd sector yn ystod dirywiad economaidd,’ ychwanegodd Mr Benfield.

Y Llywodraeth yn ailystyried y rheolau ar gyfer mudiadau corfforedig elusennol
Mae’r Llywodraeth am ddiwygio’i chynlluniau ar gyfer y rheolau ar fudiadau corfforedig elusennol mewn pryd i gyflwyno’r ffurflen gyfreithiol newydd ym mis Ebrill y flwyddyn nesaf. Daw’r newidiadau arfaethedig yn dilyn ymgynghoriad â’r sector ar y rheoliadau drafft ar gyfer mudiadau corfforedig elusennol (MCEau), a luniwyd yn sgil Deddf Elusennau 2006 fel ffordd haws i ymgorffori.

Bydd Swyddfa’r Trydydd Sector yn cyhoeddi crynodeb o’r ymgynghoriad ac amserlen y mis nesaf ar gyfer cyflwyno’r MCEau. Ar hyn o bryd, rhaid i elusennau sy’n gwmnïau adrodd i’r Comisiwn Elusennau a Thy’r Cwmnïau. Bydd y MCEau yn gallu manteisio ar fuddiannau ymgorffori a bydd yn rhaid iddynt adrodd i’r Comisiwn yn unig.

Mae £514m (40%) yn cael ei fuddsoddi mewn busnes, bron i £619m (48%) mewn pobl a £144m (11%) ar gyfer adfywio cymunedol, yr amgylchedd a thrafnidiaeth. Mae gwybodaeth am y prosiectau sydd wedi’u cymeradwyo i’w gweld ar wefan WEFO.

Pwyllgor Monitro’r Rhaglen (PMRh) yn ystyried cynnydd i gronfa gyllido’r UE
Gofynnodd WEFO i Bwyllgor Monitro Cymru Gyfan Rhaglenni’r UE (PMRh) yn ei gyfarfod ar 6 Ebrill ystyried cynigion i gynyddu’r cyfraddau ymyrraeth ar gyfer blaenoriaethau cyllido’r UE ac i drosglwyddo cyllid i feysydd o’r rhaglen sydd wedi’u gordanysgrifio, er mwyn sicrhau bod mwy o gyllid ar gael i brosiectau. Cymeradwyodd aelodau’r PMRh y cynigion ac mae trafodaethau’n cael eu cynnal yn awr rhwng WEFO a’r Comisiwn Ewropeaidd.

Dangos y gwahaniaeth
Mae’r gwaith ymchwil hwn, a wnaethpwyd gan CES ar gyfer y rhaglen perfformiad cenedlaethol, yn edrych sut y mae mudiadau seilwaith yn wynebu’r her o ddangos y gwahaniaeth maent yn ei wneud. Mae’r adroddiad yn edrych ar y defnydd o arfau monitro a gwerthuso yn y sector; anawsterau damcaniaethol ac ymarferol wrth geisio dangos y gwahaniaeth; ac awgrymiadau gan ymatebwyr ar yr hyn a fyddai’n eu helpu i ddangos yn well y gwahaniaeth maent yn ei wneud.

Rhoi a chodi arian cyhoeddus

Cymorth Rhodd a deddfwriaeth drethu ar gyfer elusennau
Mae Cyllid a Thollau EM wedi diweddaru’r rhestr a gyhoeddir ganddo ar y we o gyfeiriadau statudol sy’n ymwneud ag elusennau a Chlybiau Chwaraeon Amatur Cymunedol, gan gynnwys eithriadau treth, Cymorth Rhodd a mathau eraill o roi. Gweler y ddolen yn http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/legislation.htm.

Mae’r ffurflenni Datganiad Cymorth Rhodd enghreifftiol wedi cael eu diwygio yn sgil y gofyniad bod yn rhaid i roddwyr fod yn talu symiau digonol o Dreth Incwm neu Dreth ar Enillion Cyfalaf. Mae fersiwn A4 ar gael yn http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/appendix_b1.pdf, ac un A5 yn http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/charities/appendix_b3.pdf.

Rheswm i fod yn obeithiol ynghylch rhoi trwy’r gyflogres er gwaethaf y dirwasgiad
Mae elusennau’n dawel obeithiol ynghylch incwm rhoi trwy’r gyflogres wrth i’r cynllun Rhoi Wrth Ennill gael newydd wedd gan y Sefydliad Cymorth yr Elusennau (CAF). Dywedodd llefarydd ar ran CAF wrth Professional Fundraising nad oedd y mudiad wedi sylwi bod y dirwasgiad neu gynnydd yn y ffigurau diweithdra wedi cael unrhyw effaith hyd yma a bod y lefelau cyfranogi yn ei gynllun rhoi trwy’r gyflogres – y fwyaf o’i fath – yn gyson gyda 445,000 o roddwyr. Bydd CAF yn lansio ymgyrch farchnata uniongyrchol newydd ar gyfer Rhoi Wrth Ennill ym mis Mai.

Ymddengys nad yw elusennau ychwaith yn poeni gormod am incwm rhoi trwy’r gyflogres. Dywedodd Anne Fisher, cydlynydd rhoi trwy’r gyflogres gyda’r RNIB a thrysorydd grwp buddiannau arbennig y Sefydliad Codi Arian ar roi trwy’r gyflogres, wrth Professional Fundraising ei bod wedi negodi targedau incwm rhoi trwy’r gyflogres ar yr un lefel â’r llynedd, ond ychwanegodd: "Mae’n rhesymegol i ddisgwyl y gallai dyfu er gwaethaf y dirwasgiad." Meddai: "Yr wyf yn dal yn obeithiol. Nid yw wedi effeithio ar incwm eto," ond cyfaddefodd fod gostyngiad wedi bod o ran recriwtio ar gyfer yr elusen ac y gallai natur y system rhoi trwy’r gyflogres olygu na fyddai’r effaith ar roddwyr yn cael ei theimlo am rai misoedd.

Elusennau’n buddsoddi’n drwm yng nghronfa micro gyllid Triodos
Mae elusennau ymhlith y buddsoddwyr mwyaf mewn cronfa micro gyllid a lansiwyd y mis yma gan y benthyciwr cymdeithasol, Triodos Bank. Derbyniodd y gronfa £20m, a fydd yn cael ei fuddsoddi mewn busnesau bach mewn gwledydd datblygol, derbyniodd fuddsoddiad 'angori' gan fudiadau gwirfoddol, gan gynnwys y rheolwr cronfeydd dielw CCLA a’r corff dyrannu grantiau, Sefydliad Waterloo. Dywedodd Alex Connor, rheolwr cysylltiadau buddsoddwyr gyda Triodos, fod llawer yn dangos diddordeb yn y gronfa gan gynnwys buddsoddwyr preifat ac elusennol, a dywedodd ei bod yn gobeithio y byddai’n tyfu i £100m erbyn 2010.

Rheolau newydd yn ei gwneud yn haws i gyfrifo ad-daliadau TAW
Bydd elusennau sy’n ymgymryd â gweithgareddau busnes yn ei chael yn haws i gyfrifo canran y TAW y gallant ei hawlio’n ôl o dan reolau newydd Cyllid a Thollau EM. Bydd y rheolau eithriadau rhannol newydd, a ddaeth i rym ar 1 Ebrill, yn galluogi elusennau i gyfrifo TAW yn seiliedig ar amcangyfrifon y flwyddyn flaenorol, ac yna’i gymhwyso ar y diwedd, yn hytrach na gorfod gwneud cyfrifiadau manwl gywir ar bob ffurflen TAW. Byddant hefyd yn caniatáu elusennau sy’n anghyfarwydd â’r rheolau i gyfrifo’u taliadau’n seiliedig ar gyfrifiadau dros dro, yn hytrach na gorfod aros tan ddiwedd y flwyddyn i hawlio unrhyw TAW yn ôl.

Dywedodd llefarydd ar ran y corff ymbarél, Grwp Cyfarwyddwyr Cyllid Elusennau bod ei mudiad yn cefnogi’r newidiadau a gyflwynwyd gan Gyllid a Thollau EM, ond y dylai wneud yn siwr nad oedd yn dwysau ofnau elusennau o fynd ati i hawlio treth yn ôl. "Dylai Cyllid a Thollau EM fod yn ymwybodol mai’r anhawster mawr yn y maes hwn yw casglu’r data a dyrannu incwm a gwariant rhwng busnesau a sefydliadau nad ydynt yn fusnesau," meddai. Nid yw Cyllid a Thollau EM wedi penderfynu a yw am ddiddymu unrhyw wahaniaethau rhwng gweithgareddau eithriedig a rhai di-fusnes i ddibenion TAW.
