Structure Governance and Management 

Agoriad is a registered charity and is also registered as a company limited by Guarantee. It is governed by a board of trustees who are appointed annually at the AGM. The period of office is for a year before re appointment becomes necessary. The board meets formally at least 4 times a year. The day-to-day management of the company is delegated to the Chief executive. Who within his job description has limits of authority stated. Clear protocols exist for decision making at both strategic and operational levels. Board approval is needed for any expenditure items above £3000 and any cheques for over £250 must have a board member signature as well as that of the Chief Executive. Board members are recruited through advertising and through circulation of opportunities in the company magazine. 

Trustees are given access to any relevant training offered by the local Community Voluntary Councils. Induction of trustees consists of relevant training, meetings with staff, and other board members and also with the company accountant. Trustees will be given copies of all necessary company documentation, handbooks and business plans for discussion with Chief Executive and Board members. 

Agoriad holds membership of a wide variety of bodies and organisations that are relevant to our aims. These include the WCVA, Social Firms Wales, and the CVC’s Medrwn Mon and Mantell Gwynedd. In addition, we have extensive network 



contacts with disability specific groups, local councils, DWP, Job Centre Plus and Welsh Assembly Government bodies. 

Risk management is regularly reviewed and as well as board and staff input, contributions are sought from outside organisations who have specific skills e.g., chartered accountants’ employment law and H&S specialists. 

Constitution, Objectives and Policies: 

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

The company’s objects and principal activities remain that of seeking to provide a service to disabled and disadvantaged client’s that is geared towards helping them into employment or vocational training. 

It is our policy that: 

· The services we offer will be flexible and responsive to meet the varied needs of the clients and stakeholders associated with our business. 

· The service will be capable of responding to take maximum advantage of any political, environmental, and economic circumstances that impact upon gaining employment and training opportunities for our client groups. 

· Agoriad will seek to maximise any opportunities that could be used to advance the employability of disabled people. These will include any relevant schemes through the Jobcentre Plus, Welsh Government, and vocational training courses in further education, work experience or vocational training in any other setting. Agoriad will also seek collaborative working opportunities from European funding opportunities. 

The roles of the Department of Work and Pensions and the Welsh Government in the provision of training opportunities will be fully recognised and utilised as having good impact at local level and appropriate action will be taken to ensure that the needs of people with a disability or at disadvantage are met in an 



appropriate way, commensurate to need and outcomes beyond training. 

Agoriad will pursue a strategy of business development that is based on staff capability. This will be underpinned by offering all staff appropriate training and development opportunities. 

Agoriad will take steps to ensure that every referral to its service will be assessed initially to establish the appropriateness and needs of the individual. Any referral not accepted will be notified as such, and explanation given as to the nature of the rejection. Individuals accepted will undergo a more detailed assessment to determine strengths and needs and to ascertain individual aspirations and requirements. 

In-Depth Vocational Assessments and Vocational Action Plans will be prepared for each individual and agreed prior to the commencement of any action. In-Depth Vocational Assessments and Vocational Action Plans will be regarded as under ownership of the individual and accessed by other agencies only with the expressed permission of that individual. 

Agoriad will develop marketing strategies to identify employers and employment opportunities commensurate with individual need and further to enlist the support of employers by overcoming prejudice and ignorance of the needs of people with disabilities. 

Agoriad will attempt to ensure that individuals are not placed into an employment situation unless the conditions are correct. We will also attempt to ensure that any support, financial or human that is required will be in place at the commencement of the employment, training or any other circumstance. 

Agoriad will ensure that where individuals are denied the right of access to employment situations because their support or finance requirements are greater than the resources available, all such denials will be brought to the attention of the funding authority responsible and attempt made to have the individual requirements met. 

There have been no material changes to our policies since we last reported our activities apart from any legal requirements. 

Developments, Activities and Achievements: 



The trustees consider that the performance of staff delivering a service to disabled and disadvantaged clients to be both successful and delivered in a professional manner. 

Agoriad position regarding its funding is as follows: 

· SLA funding and spot purchase arrangements which derives from Local Authorities. This is diminishing as client numbers drop and no new referrals are being provided. The traditional flow of clients from Local authorities is also being affected by in house retention of clients to go on Local Authority run projects and schemes. The Covid 19 situation has seen the stalling of some collaborative work, however it is likely to resume post may. 

There has been delays in procurement for a variety of projects and contracts sustainable social services, Job support Wales and the Work and Health Programme are still to be offered. This has affected our role going forward and the dominance of prime contractors on DWP contracts present a significant risk going forward. 

· Trading income has been affected by Covid and no clear identification as to what trends will emerge going forward is yet available. This will be a key aspect of our planning for sustainability going forward. 

There is an outstanding debt due from a company who utilised facilities in Caffi Ffynon of around £6000 that has been carried forward, but the likelihood of it being recouped is minimal and it will probably have to be written off as a bad debt.. 

Agoriad’s activities are available to clients through either the medium of Welsh or English. 

Future Developments: 

The Key issues for Agoriad over the short and medium term will be coping with the business environment post covid. Strategies for small indigenous third sector organisations such as Agoriad to develop the ability and willingness to form collaborative arrangements to compete, share resources and enable economies of scale and critical mass to be established will be critical. Procurement practices again will impact strongly on our desire to be sustainable. In respect of risk analysis there are a 



number of factors that have caused and continue to cause concern to the trustees. These include: 

· There are ongoing significant risks for Agoriad as well as the third sector generally being presented in the procurement practices of central and local government. This situation is being compounded by the general economic downturn and the uncertainty around how Brexit will pan out. 

· With such a reliance on public sector opportunities the rate the public sector divests these opportunities and their approach to collaborative working is raising business planning and sustainability questions. Despite many attempts Agoriad and similar third sector organisations are finding it difficult to establish collaborative arrangements with the public sector. 

During the last year Agoriad has continued the process of developing and consolidating its social enterprises and Social Firm activities. Agoriad continues to seek Collaborative working opportunities pan Wales regarding business and project development work. We are to become partners in the Job sense project alongside Elite supported employment agency, COS and MITB. 

The Partnership established with Elite, Learning Disabilities Wales, All Wales People first and Cardiff university on the Engage to Change project which utilises lottery and Welsh Assembly Government funding, that is concerned with helping young people with LD or who are on the ASD to gain employment continues to develop legacy activity and opportunities in supported internships and supported shared apprenticeships are emerging. This involves sub-contracting to local colleges.  and the opportunity to influence policy and develop wider networking is occurring. The working relationship with Betsi Cadwallader Health Board is being developed and this is seen as a breakthrough area to Target in respect of the public sector offering employment and training for disabled and disadvantaged clients. Agoriad has developed an Internship model with Coleg Llandrillo Menai that is to be used in Gwynedd and Anglesey.. 

## Staff Changes 

The have been no significant staff changes during the year. The Board is now down to 2. Agoriad has advertised and continues to look for new Board members. A third person is now about to join 



the Board. We have obtained the services of an experienced CEO as an advisor to the Board in respect of DWP contracts.

## **Statement of the Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether the applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial accounts; 

- prepare the financial accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. 

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

**Report Of The Independent Auditors To The Members Of Agoriad Cyfyngedig.** 

## _**Opinion**_ 

We have audited the financial statements of Agoriad Cyf (the ''Charity'') for the year ended 31st March 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheets and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.  The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

This report is made solely to the Charity's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. 

In our opinion, the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity's affairs as at 31st March 2022 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## _**Basis for opinion**_ 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 1 to the financial statements' and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide the basis of our opinion. 

## _**Conclusions relating to going concern**_ 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where: 

- the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or 

- the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Charity's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

## _**Other information**_ 

The trustees are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.  Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the  audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material  misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information.  If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

**Report Of The Independent Auditors To The Members Of Agporiad Cyfyngedig** 

## _**Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**_ 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the trustee's report (incorporating the strategic report and the directors' report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the trustees' report (incorporating the strategic report and the director's report) have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## _**Matters on which we are required to report by exception**_ 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Annual Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 

- certain disclosures of trustee' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purpose of our audit. 

## _**Responsibilities of the trustees**_ 

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement set out on page 2, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and  fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from  material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## _**Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**_ 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. 

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatement can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

We have assessed that the risk to the financial statements of being susceptible to material misstatement is low. We believe audit work undertaken is sufficient to identify material misstatement The key Laws and regulations affecting the company's ability to trade relate to Social Care regulations and Charity Commission rules. We have not identified or been advised  of actual or suspected fraud or instances of non compliance with key regulations. 

The experience of the audit team was deemed to be sufficient to identify fraud or errors in this engagement. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.  The description forms part of our auditor's report.

**Report Of The Independent Auditors To The Members Of Agoriad Cyfyngedig.** 

## _**Opinion**_ 

We have audited the financial statements of Agoriad Cyf (the ''Charity'') for the year ended 31st March 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheets and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.  The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

This report is made solely to the Charity's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. 

In our opinion, the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity's affairs as at 31st March 2022 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## _**Basis for opinion**_ 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 1 to the financial statements' and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide the basis of our opinion. 

## _**Conclusions relating to going concern**_ 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where: 

- the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or 

- the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Charity's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

## _**Other information**_ 

The trustees are responsible for the other information.  The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.  Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the  audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material  misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information.  If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

**Report Of The Independent Auditors To The Members Of Agporiad Cyfyngedig** 

## _**Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**_ 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the trustee's report (incorporating the strategic report and the directors' report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the trustees' report (incorporating the strategic report and the director's report) have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## _**Matters on which we are required to report by exception**_ 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Annual Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 

- certain disclosures of trustee' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purpose of our audit. 

## _**Responsibilities of the trustees**_ 

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement set out on page 2, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and  fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from  material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## _**Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**_ 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. 

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatement can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

We have assessed that the risk to the financial statements of being susceptible to material misstatement is low. We believe audit work undertaken is sufficient to identify material misstatement The key Laws and regulations affecting the company's ability to trade relate to Social Care regulations and Charity Commission rules. We have not identified or been advised  of actual or suspected fraud or instances of non compliance with key regulations. 

The experience of the audit team was deemed to be sufficient to identify fraud or errors in this engagement. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.  The description forms part of our auditor's report.
