## **Chair’s Foreword**
## **Chair Foreword 2022**
It has been another busy year of making news and changing lives.
As I write this, the UK seems to be moving on from the trauma of the pandemic, but no doubt a new crisis will emerge. All that we can do as a charity is remain resilient, flexible and keep our people engaged. This approach successfully guided us through the pandemic and these learnings will remain with us for the future.
As an organisation we have spent the past two years building the foundations for our future and developing a strategy to take us up to 2025 and beyond. We learned a lot about ourselves during this process, what young people and staff felt, what our stakeholders thought about us and what our partners wanted.
It was clear that young people have really struggled over the past few years and need lots of support to get back on track, be it anxiety due to social isolation or nervousness about their education attainment. We have taken this knowledge and baked it into our future programme plans.
Our governance continues to be strong, with a broad and diverse board representing the regions of the UK where we work, people with varied interests and a number of former members, including myself. The makeup of the board is something I am immensely proud of. I would also note the excellent support received over the past years from Lloyds Bank Foundation which has supported me to be a better Chair and build stronger foundations of effective leadership and governance. But, like all organisations, we recognise that much more can always be done.
As this year came to an end, we said goodbye to a number of colleagues, including our Chief Executive, Ali Talbot. Ali’s first day at Headliners was the 1 April 2020 and guiding the organisation through the pandemic was no April Fool. Like all organisations we adapted to the new reality and following the pandemic, have had to continue to be flexible in our delivery as the funding environment adapts to the post-pandemic world.
We are excited about our plan for the future so please, if you are reading this, get in touch and let’s see how we can work together.

## **Headliners (UK) Trustees’ Report**
The Trustees are pleased to present their report together with the audited financial statements for Headliners (UK) for the year ended 31[st] March 2022.
Legal and administrative information set out on page 2 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and articles of association and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice 2005.
## **Structure, Governance and Management**
Headliners (UK) is a company limited by guarantee, not having a share capital, and is governed by a Board of Trustees, the members of which are the directors of the Company. The charity’s governing document is its Articles of Association. Trustees are externally recruited and selected then appointed by ordinary resolution for an initial three-year term, which can be extended.
It is the policy of the charity that there is representation of young people and former Headliners (UK) members on the Board of Trustees. Young people are involved across all sections of the organisation including the annual planning cycle and developing strategy.
The charity’s ethos is encourage the participation of young people. Young people are involved in the recruitment of key charity positions and key decision making in the charity including our strategy.
The day-to-day operation of the charity is now managed by the Chief Executive, who reports to the Board of Trustees and who is supported by a small senior management team. The senior management team meets at monthly intervals and the Board meets five times per year. There are two sub committees that operate in support of the Board of Trustees. These are the Finance, Fundraising and Communications Sub Committee and the Delivery and Operations Sub Committee.
The charity was supported by 128 hours of governance volunteering hours by Trustees in 2021-22 to contribute to the governance of the charity and an additional 76.5 governance volunteering hours to support the development of the new strategy.
Financial management of the organisation lies with the Chief Executive and an outsourced Finance Provider. For the financial year 2021-2022 this service was provided by Accountability Europe Ltd. Budgets are prepared annually and presented to the Board of Trustees for formal adoption in March of each year. Management accounts are presented every two months to the Finance, Fundraising and Communications Committee and reported on to the Board of Trustees meetings. The Finance, Fundraising and Communications Sub Committee, chaired currently by the Chair, regularly reviews the financial position, the level of reserves and policy and fundraising progress. It also reviews the risk register and going concern to advise and report to the Board of trustees.
It is the policy of Headliners (UK) that all Trustees, team members and volunteers are subjected to a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and Access NI check for Northern Ireland at appointment and at three-year intervals thereafter.
## **Responsibilities of Board of Trustees**
The Board of Trustees is responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Board of Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
Under company law the Board of Trustees must not approve the accounts 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 accounts, the Board of Trustees are required to:
4
-
-
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
- prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business
-
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities’ SORP
The Board of Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the 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.
In accordance with company law, as the company’s directors, the Trustees certify that:
- so far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company’s auditors are unaware; and
- as the Directors of the company, they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are aware of that information
## **Our Board of Trustees**
Members of the Board of Trustees, who are also Trustees under charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report shown on page 2. Profiles of the Board of Trustees can be viewed here.
Members of the charitable company guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charitable company in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees on 31[st] March 2022 was 11. Members of the Board of Trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.
New Trustees are elected by the Board of Trustees having regard for the knowledge, skills and experience Headliners (UK) require. The appointment of Trustees is undertaken through an open recruitment process and based on the skills matrix for the Board and selected candidates are interviewed for suitability. Once appointed, Trustees complete an induction process, which includes orientation with the operational and financial reporting processes, meeting senior management and staff and introduction with the charity’s team and young people (members).

## **Our Strategic Objectives for 2022-2025**
Headliners (UK) is entering an exciting phase of development following the challenges that COVID-19 presented to the charity, our staff team and young people. The Board of Trustees and the staff team came together throughout 2021 to develop the next strategic plan for 2022-2025. It represented a unique opportunity to take stock of where the charity sits in the youth landscape and listen to young people’s thoughts on what they need for the future. The charity’s Trustees, staff members and importantly young people and our partners have had the opportunity to shape our direction of travel and guide us on how we meet the needs of young people in the coming years.
Headliners (UK) has taken onboard the wide scope of discussions and youth consultations to shape our strategy around three key themes and these have become our pillars for our 2022-2025 strategic objectives. A copy of our full strategy can be downloaded here
Headliners (UK) strategic objectives for the next three years are:

## **Measuring Our Impact**
Headliners (UK) will capture qualitative and quantitative data and feedback to support our strategic objectives. This includes the number of participants, equality and diversity information and demographic of participants with the appropriate safeguarding and anonymity maintained. We will capture detailed feedback from participants, parents / carers, project partners and volunteers through exit surveys and questionnaires. It is important that we capture young people’s baseline views at the start of our contact with them and then we capture detailed end of project exit reflections from each young person. These reflection questionnaires are built around the objectives and outcomes for each project or objective.
Our core outcomes to be measured for this strategy are:
- a. % of young people feel their confidence levels have improved.
- b. % of young people report they have made new friends.
- c. % of young people feel their feelings of wellbeing have improved.
- d. % of young people feel they have a voice and are heard.
## **Review of 2021/2022 Charitable Activities**

Each project had specific COVID-19 Secure Risk Assessments, and these were reviewed at each change in restrictions for both England and Northern Ireland operations.

15

## **Financial Review**
During the 2021-2022 financial year, Headliners (UK) made a net deficit of £19,475 (2021 net profit £25,203) resulting in total funds carried forward of £204,211 (2021 total funds carried forward £223,686). Principal sources of funding were from the contract delivery on the National Citizen Service Trust (NCST), the National Lottery Community Fund Northern Ireland, Mayor of London’s Young Londoners Fund and new grant funding secured. The NCS contract income from the Skills Booster programme provided additional unbudgeted income for the charity.
## **Reserves Policy**
The Trustees have determined that a target reserves level of £60,000 is both realistic and appropriate. This represents 18 months of core costs not supported by guaranteed income streams which is felt to provide sufficient protection for the organisation. The charity has built up the reserves over the past year and exceeded the target through reducing long term financial commitments with the exception of the loan.
## **Management of Risk**
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:
- An annual review of the risks the charity may face.
- Regular monitoring by the charity’s Finance, Fundraising and Communications Sub Committee and the Risk Register is reported to the Board of Trustees quarterly.
-
- The establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the plan.
- The implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.
This work has identified that financial sustainability is the key focus for the charity and building up of the unrestricted reserves for the charity through new sources of income and new contract income. Attention has also focussed on non-financial risks arising from safeguarding and child protection.
Data security including cyber security is an increasing focus and the charity regularly reviews our Data Protection Policy and procedures to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the charity once again achieved Cyber Essentials accreditation in October 2021 to October 2022.
Safeguarding and child protection policies and procedures are reviewed twice a year by the Chief Executive and reported to Trustees when new legislation or guidance is issued. External child protection
16
training is compulsory for all staff and there is an internal on-going training and skills sharing child protection plan.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s Trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts 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 your 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**
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 Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts 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 accounts 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.

## **Headliners (U.K.) Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2022**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **a) Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102 - effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.
## **b) Going concern**
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.
## **Income**
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether grants or grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance for the provision of specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
## **c) Interest receivable**
- Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
## **d) Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used
## **e) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
- Costs of generating funds relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose. Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services, and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs. Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
## **f) Allocation of support costs**
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charitable activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of generating funds and expenditure on charitable activities.

## **Headliners (U.K.) Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2022**
## **1 Accounting policies (continued)**
## **g) Operating leases**
Rental payables under operating leases, where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership remain with the lessor, are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the lease
## **h) Tangible fixed assets**
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:
- ˜ Plant and equipments 4 years
## **i) Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **Cash at bank and in hand**
- j) Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **k) Creditors and provisions**
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
## **l) Pensions**
The charitable company contributes into the pension of its employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the charitable company in an independently administered fund. The pension costs charge represents contributions payable under the scheme by the charitable company to the fund. The charitable company has no liability under the scheme other than for the payment of those contributions.
