CHAIR FORWARD 2023

Dear Friends,

It has been another busy year delivering our mission and supporting young people. However, our fundraising environment remains challenging. With this in mind, the charity has had to take steps to reduce our fixed costs and explore wider opportunities for fundraising and partnerships.

We expect in the next financial year the need to look at the Headliners UK operating model, which may require consolidation into a single base of operation in the Northeast of England.

Nevertheless, with funding that has been secured, we have continued to deliver our excellent programmes supporting young people. I am proud that we were able to work with 816 young people through our activities.

The year bought changes in leadership at Headliners UK. We said goodbye to Ali Talbot, after two years at Headliners, steering the organisation through the pandemic, being innovative to continue delivery with our young people and supporting our team through what was a difficult time for all across the UK. We thank Ali for her hard work during what was an unprecedented challenge to our operations.

In August 2022 we welcomed a new Chief Executive, James Hunt, who joins us with experience as a fundraiser in the charity sector.

I want to convey my thanks to all of our funders, supporters and volunteers. Not least our wonderful trustees that continue to provide their time supporting me as Chair, and the leadership of the charity.

Jon Hudson

Chairperson

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 2019).

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.

Financial review

During the 2023-24 financial year, Headliners (UK) made a net deficit of £43,815 (2022 19,475) resulting in total funds carried forward of £160,396 (202 £204,211).

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.

Management of Risk

The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:

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.

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Who we are

Headliners (UK) uses multi-media programmes and tools to help disadvantaged young people across London, Northern Ireland and North-East England to learn new skills and give them the means to make good choices in their own lives. Headliners supports the most vulnerable children and young people aged 8-25 years including care leavers, from black and minority ethnic groups, low economic backgrounds, those not in education, employment or training (NEET), with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), refugees and young people seeking asylum. Through creative media and journalism we empower young people to have a voice, share their stories and the stories of others.

Through the work we do we support young people to prepare for the future whilst building confidence and resilience. In the process, young people also enrich local communities through disseminating what they learnt and through targeted social action around areas of local deprivation. Headliners is proud to work with forward-thinking and innovative young people who care passionately about their peers and the communities they live in.

Through the work of our dedicated team, We support young people to have a voice on issues that matter locally such as transitioning to independent living, acquiring skills for work and dealing with isolation amongst other things.

Headliners has a near 30 year track record of advocating for young people on matters that affect them, inspiring them to investigate the world around them, offering opportunities to enhance their future life chances through education and empowering them by amplifying their voices.

"Being a care-leaver isn't easy. I do get so much support from my social worker and from other organisations but it's different from having a parent, family that you can talk to about anything. It can really knock your confidence. I have always been a creative person but doubted my abilities so wouldn't share the things I did. Signing up to do new things is always quite daunting as meeting new people is hard but I'm so glad I signed up to do Tyne on Your side. I lacked confidence in this and just didn't know where to start. After working with Headliners, I feel so much more confident and positive about my future because I have been given some really good skills in interviewing, mapping out my future and building my experiences though volunteering."

Strategic Objectives 2023 to 2025

Our Strategic Objectives are to:

EMPOWER through Youth Voices. We will do this by enabling young people to have an inclusive platform to amplify their voice supported our charity that is the best we can be through effective governance, leadership and youth engagement to empower youth voices.

EDUCATE through Youth Opportunities. We will do this by developing our partnerships and alliances to amplify youth voices to create opportunities for young people to enhance their future life chances by making positive choices and access inclusive opportunities.

ADVOCATE through Reaching Out. We will do this by strengthening young people's voices, empowering them to positively challenge the world around them supported by sustainable resources and income in the charity to achieve our vision and mission.

"I think the part of the project that was the most important for me was a session in believing in myself. I think all young people need to have that because I put myself down all the time before this and now, I can go 'No I can do this, I do have skills, I am capable.'"

Our Projects

Our projects represent the needs of the young people we work with and our core groups of young people who are facing barriers;

Additional Projects complement our core projects, engage further young people, additionally develop the work of Headliners and offers further support to young people we already work with.

The Young Journalist programme is the aimed at working with young people to support them to become the next generation of citizen journalists, to train and equip them to challenge the world around them, share their stories and the stories of others. This programme will be developed with a timeline for beginning in January 2024.

The Aiming High Project has made me feel more excited for the future I have and less sad about my past. I feel safe, I have made friends and I have been able to use new creative skills. Hopefully next year I can go to college and study photography. I would like to be a photographer for my career and Headliners has inspired me. I like to take pictures that show real life in its true form. I like to photograph places and people. I like to show shapes and different angles that show a different view of a simple thing.

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees (who are also the directors of Headliners (UK) for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to

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

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HEADLINERS (UK)

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Headliners (Uk) ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023.

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

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

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.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling, rounded to the nearest Pound (£).

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

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 a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Plant and machinery - 25% on cost

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
