DIRECTORS, REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024
Objectives
HHP'S mission is to relieve the need of homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness within the administrative
area known as York and North Yorkshire by provision of temporary accommodation, advice, and counselling.
Our vision is that nobody in our area must sleep rough, and people experiencing homelessness will have all the necessary
support they need to build confidence and move towards independent livin8.
HHP was established in 1991 to help individuals who are vulnerably housed, or sleeping rough, recognising that rough
sleeping is damaging to individuals and to society. The longer someone remains on the streets the greater the risk of
being vulnerable to crime. substance misuse, physical and mental illness and of dying prematurely.
The Charity works with those experiencing homelessness to offer emergency accommodation, find longer term
sustainable accommodation and work towards establishing everyday living and employment. We work with those at risk
of homelessness to enable people to keep a tenancy, manage their health and maintain relationships with family and
friends.
HHP is committed to providing a multi-agency response to help our clients to receive the support they need, so that
there is a clear pathway to employment and sustsinable livin8.
Artlvltles
The activities of the charity are the provision of accommodation to relieve homelessness, and access to support and
services to help our clients bLtild more sustainable lives.
Our accommodation is varied from short term emergency accommodation to properties that help prepare clients for
independent living. The accommodation provided is listed below '.
HHP operates a sixteen bed hostel in Bower Street, rented from North Yorkshire Council {"NYC"I for a peppercorn rent.
8 beds are fully dedicated to emergency accommodation.
In Bower Street, Harrogate, HHP leases and operates eight follow-on flats in a property owned by NYC.
In Sykes Grove, Harrogate, HHP owns and operates a four bedroomed move-on house.
In Strawberry Dale, Harrogate HHP owns and operates a five bedroomed move-on house.
Since 2012 HHP has operated the area's emergency accommodation for up to five people, under the No Second Night
Out INSNOI initiative partnering Wlth North Yorkshire council I"NYC"I.
Demand for accommodation has continued from the spike wesaw post-pandemic with our properties bein8 nearly lOO%
octupled most of the time. We do not see any reason why demand will f311 in the short to medium term.
Access to support and seNices is centred around our Springboard Day Centre. Springboard is a critical part of HHP'S
operations, providing amongst other things, medical attention including a GP service. counsellin& laundry facilities,
showers, food and access to other agencies. The centre and our own support staff provide a conduit to many other public
and third sector organisations to ensure that we give our clients a bespoke pathway to Sustainable living.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024
Achlevements and performance
The year to 31 August 2024 has been both a transitional year and a year of hi8h impact. We welcomed a new Chlef
Executive in Richard Cooper. taking over from Francis McAllister on his retirement.
Over the last few years, we have seen demand for our services increase significantly. Francis and his team delivered
nearly a doubling in accommodation provision, and a significant increase in the depth and breadth of the service5
provided through Springboard. We wish him well in his retirement and I would take the opportunlty to put on record
our thanks and appreciation for all his efforts.
HHP will shortly produce tts annual impact report showlng the difference it makes to clients through storles and data.
For the financial year to 31 August 2024, we provided twelve thousand two hundred sixty-four nights of accommodation
up from nearly ten thousand seven hundred fifty in the previou5 financial year, bein8 an increase of over 14%. We are
currently providing over 450 meals per month in our Springboard food service and are averaging over seven client5 per
month movlng into their own independent accommodation.
HHP is extremely grateful to all those individuals, companies and grant giving trusts without whom we would have been
unable to function effectively. Financial support and practical support have been generou5 and heart-warming. The
support from Liz and Terry Bramall foundation and the Lloyds Bank Foundation amongst many others has been both
8enerous and pragmatic. We cannot thank them enough.
We would also like to thank North Yorkshire County Council for their practical and operational partnership, and their
financial 5UPPOrt. This partnership, with its shared objectives and value5, is helping to secure much enhanced Client
outcomes. We recognlse that local authorities are having to make difflcult spending choices, and we are therefore
especially grateful for the support being provided. This year we continued to receive funding in support of our
accommodation from the Department for Housing, Levellin8 Up and Communities Inow the Ministry of Housin
Communities and Local Government) for which we are also extremely grateful.
The people of Harrogate, Knaresborough and Rlpon have continued to be generous wlth both their time and their
donations. It is heart-warming in the current economic conditions, that many private individuals go that extra mile in
support of others. We are especially grateful to our band of volunteers who give their rime and compassion 8enerouslv.
We would also like to put on record our thanks for everything that our staff have contributed. Their skills and dedication
make a meanin8lul difference to people's lives, and they should be very proud of their achievements.
Flnanclal Revlew
At the 31st August 2024 there was an operating surplus of £190, 250. The main items making vp the 5urplu5 are grants
SUPPOrting the purchase of the Strawberry Dale property and sUPPOrting certain items of expenditure. There was also
c£SOK Increase in Houslng Benefit being both higher occupancy, and higher rates reflecting the increasing Costs.
As we Indicated in last yearfs annual report and accounts the cost base would see a large increase as we recruited to fill
vacancies, and the impact of a more inflationary environment. The cost base was artificially lower than the norm in
22123, and in 2314 the run rate is back to where we had expected. Most of the charity's costs relate to staffing, and as
responsible ernployer we wish to provide 5U5tainable jobs for our employees. In practice this means that, except in rare
circumstances, our employees are permanent rather than on fixed term contracts. We believe this to be important for
staff engagement and teèm stability. We also recognise that this approach gives us a less flexible cost base.

DIRECTORS. REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024
As at 31st August 2024, cash and bank balances totalled £561,981. These balances are likely to reduce through the year
as we consider further accommodation and service enhancements. HHP also owns two unencumbered properties with
a net book value of £546,712. The total charity funds were £992,318.
The directors confirm that in their view, the assets of the company are adequate to fulfil its current obligations.
The Future
The efforts that have been made to ensure that the charity is robust and sustainable have meant that HHP has been able
to respond p051tively and quickly to the economic environment, and its impact on the most vulnerable in our society.
For the next year, key areas to improve impact are to add a move-on property to increase the accommodation capacity,
and to widen our service offerin8 in support of the positive pathways taken by our clients.
As we welcome Richard Cooper as our new Chief Executive, and we come to the final year of our three-year strategy. It
is also a time to assess what we have achieved and the many challenges that remain. Staff, Clients and trustees are all
inputtin8 into the next strategic phase of the or8anisation, as we look to meet the ch311enBe of eradicating homelessness.
Reserves PolScy
The reserves policy is based on two months. expected expenditure, which is considered appropriate because of the
predictability of a significant portion of our income. The policy in place for the year 23/24 was a minimum reserve of
£141,000.

Oplnlon
We have audited the financial statements of Harro8ate Homeless Project Limited Ithe 'company'l for the year ended 31

then ended,.
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice,. and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Art 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis lor oplnlon
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standard5 on Auditin8 IUKI IISAS IUKII and applicable law. Our

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertaSnties relating to events or conditlons
that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a
period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.

Our opinion on the financial statement5 does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise
explicitly stated in our report, we do not expre55 any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read
the other information and, in doing 50, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit. or otherwise appears to be materially
mi55tated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material mi55tatements, we are required to
determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

audit, we have not identified materlal misstatements in the Directors, Report.

Responslbllltles of dlrectofs
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors, Responsibilities set out on page 11, the directors 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 the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparatlon of financial statements that are free
from material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are
responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matter5 related
to going concern and usin8 the going concern basi5 of accountlng unless the directors either intend to liquidate the
Company or to cease operations, or have no reallstic alternative but to do so.
Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financlal 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 auditorfs 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
ISA5 IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements 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 basi5 of these financial statements.
We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatement5 in respect
of irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including
fraud, is detailed below.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
HARROGATE HOMELESS PROJECT LIMITED
(Continued)
Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting Irregularities, including fraud
The objectives of our audit. in respect of fraud, are.. to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the
rinancial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material
misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses,. and to respond appropriately
to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and
detection of fraud rests with both those charged with govemance of the entity and its management.
Our approach was as follows-
We identified areas of laws and regulation5 that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the
financial ststements from our general commercial and sector experience, and through discussion with the
directors and other managernent {a5 requlred by auditing standards), and discussed with the directors and other
management the policies and procedures regardin8 compliance with laws and regulations,.
We considered the legal and re8ulatory frameworks dir,ectly applicable to the financial statements reporting
framework IFRS 102 and the Companies Act 2CQ61, and relevant tax compliance regulations'in the UK,.
We considered the nature of the industry, the control environment and busines5 performance, includin8 kev
drivers for management's remuneration,.
We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications
of non-compliance throughout the audit,.
We considered the procedures and controls that the company has established to address risks Identified, or
that otherwise prevent, deter and detect fraud,. and how senior management monitors those programmes.
Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and
regulations. Where the risk was considered to be higher. we performed audit procedures to address each identified risk.
These procedures Included.. testing manual journals: reviewlng the financial statement disclosures and testing to
supportin8 documentation,. performing analytical procedures,. and enquirin8 of management, and were designed to
provlde reasonable 355urance that the financial statements were free from material fraud or error.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have deterted some material
mi55tatements In the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audlt in
accordance with auditing standards. For example. the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations
lirregularitiesl is from the events and transactions reflected In the flnancial statements, the less likely the inherently
limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities
occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or
misrepresentatlon. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expetted to detect 311 non-
compliance with laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's webslte at..
https'./IwvdW.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor'5 report.
