Who are we and why our work is important.

Every 90 seconds someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with a brain injury, this may be from a work or sports injury, trip, fall, falling objects, stroke, encephalitis, meningitis, hypoxia, carbon monoxide poisoning, assault, combat, domestic violence, brain tumour, aneurysm and many other issues. Headway Surrey help people to cope with this traumatic change to their lives.

At Headway Surrey everyone has a feeling of belonging and can be themselves, they can enjoy meeting others in a similar situation and work on their own personal goals so that they thrive. We work together and provide the facilities and resources for everyone to gain peer support. We support not only the person with the brain injury but also their families, carers and employers.

We also reduce the pressure on public services.

Our Vision

To be known throughout Surrey as the 'go to place' for support with acquired and traumatic brain injury.

Our Mission

To support adults with acquired and traumatic brain injury, their families and carers. To promote and understand the implications of brain injury and to discover how to lead a worthwhile and different life with brain injury

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For The Year Ended 31 March 2024

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Chief Executive Report on Services

Headway Surrey continues to offer a wide range of services designed to support and enable adults in Surrey with acquired brain injury to live well with their brain injury. The Rehabilitation Team are very experienced, some being awarded the Certificate in Brain Injury from Headway UK and Northampton University, others undertaking Brain Tree Training courses, which specialise in upskilling staff to support brain injury survivors. The team also have backgrounds that come from working with special needs, challenging behaviour and psychology. The staff team comprises 10 people which is the equivalent of 6.5 full-time.

Headway Surrey relies on the support of its wonderful volunteers, either regularly or one-off. The number of volunteers varies but there are in excess of 20. The roles they fill are as Trustees, centre helpers in group sessions, tea and coffee volunteers, Drop-In helpers, behind the scenes office admin, awareness events, fundraising, social media and gardening.

The Services

Helpline and Email Support. This is a vital and life-saving service. It is used for advice, support and for those with communication issues, this also includes a text or What's App service. It provides information to those surviving a brain injury, families and carers, and professional health and social care professionals. It is often the initial contact point for these people immediately after a brain injury and then again later when the person is discharged from hospital. It is also used many months or even years after the brain injury. Cognitive disabilities may be identified often in a crisis, or when the family feel they are unable to cope on their own anymore and that is when hel p will be sought.

Centre Workshop Days. Two days of the week, a weekly Centre Workshop Day runs from 10am-2.30pm. Up to 15 people with brain injury can attend and each person has person-centred goals which are monitored and supported. The day is split into different sections to enable those attending to gain the maximum support. The day starts with individual bespoke worksheets, followed by socialisation time over coffee. Then a session which may be on brain injury strategies and skills for memory, information processing, decision making, creative writing or a guest speaker, or a discussion around emotions or certain effects of brain injury. This is followed by a lunch break, where conversation and communication are encouraged, along with reading the newspapers, crosswords, listening to music and enjoying the Headway Surrey Garden. In the afternoon there will be an art therapy session art, boardgames, or seated boccia. These sessions are used either short term or long term, some attendees use these sessions to maintain their brain improvement and to giv e their carers respite.

Zoom Coffee Mornings. Fortnightly and online to make it accessible for those who cannot travel or leave their homes. An hour of lively discussion on topics that the attendees choose. Coffee Morning attendees gain a great deal of peer support, ideas on living well and coping with their brain injury, as well as laughter and friendship, which breaks the isolation barriers. For some it is the only contact they have with others all week. Professionals in hospitals may attend with patients due to be discharged in a bid to familiarise themselves with the services they may access in the future.

1:1 Sessions. These sessions are specialised and bespoke for those that need or want more 1:1 specialist support. They are also ideal for those whose brain injury has resulted in noise intolerance and those requiring more confidentiality. The sessions are person-centred and may involve learning skills and strategies to manage memory or information processing, controlling behaviour, decision making, specialist worksheets, new skill training, or re-training on lost skills, practical administration support to understand and read correspondence, benefits, bills, appointments, medical letters etc. Assistance with returning to work, practical advice and strategies to cope. Signposting and support to volunteering or training or employment. The sessions are accessible online or face to face at Headway Surrey. These sessions can also be used for family members to gain skills and support to help them support their loved one.

Drop In. Held on the third Friday morning of every month, this very popular session is for regulars and also potential new clients. Attendance numbers vary, but will be between 20-30. It gives new potential clients the opportunity to see the centre, meet some of the team, discuss options and to meet others in a similar situation. For regulars, it is a welcome monthly event to socialise and reduce isolation, gain communication practice, peer-to-peer support and meet new people. Family and carers also attend and they gain support from talking to other families and carers and members of staff. The session also provides carers a morning of respite from their caring duties, if they wish to drop and leave the person with brain injury, knowing they are in a safe place. Previous clients also use the drop-in as a time to re-connect / socialise with other clients and staff.

Family Education Sessions. These are for family group issues or 1:1 sessions for spouse/partner, parents and children to understand what the person with the brain injury is going through, how they can help and how as a family they can work together and support the survivor's reha bilitation. These are accessible online or face-to-face.

Annual Summer Outing. The clients select a local place of interest to visit for a day, e.g. Mane Chance Horse Sanctuary or Swingbridge Boat on the River Wey. Clients help plan the day and gain a lot of cognitive benefit, both socially and practically, e.g. planning, information processing, communication and decision making.

Annual Christmas Lunches. Held at Headway House for all the clients. This is a vital social opportunity, complete with all the necessary entertainment, Father Christmas and a small gift. This event offers local companies the opportunity to sponsor the event and to be involved with p articipating and volunteering on the day.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For The Year Ended 31 March 2024

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Professional Training Special training sessions can be arranged for different groups of professionals, for example Lawyers or Case Managers. These are u sually 2 hours in length and delivered online or face to face.

Professional Lunch and Learn Webinars. These are held once every two months online and are 30 minutes in length enabling health care and social care professionals to easily join and learn in bite sized chunks about brain injury and some other associated issues, e.g. Communication, behaviour, memory.

Volunteering there are a range of opportunities. For example, 1:1 support with clients, facilitating group sessions e.g. quiz and boardgames, preparing refreshments and conversation practice, fundraising, event support, admin, gardening and trusteeship. All volunteers undergo an interview, DBS check, two references, trial period, induction and training. We have more than 20 volunteers at any time, either regular volunteers, term-time volunteers, holiday volunteers and one-off volunteers.

Taking an average:

20 volunteers x 48 weeks of the year x 10 hours = 9,600 hours per year at the national living wage of £11.44 per hour this would cost = £109,824

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For The Year Ended 31 March 2024

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Report by the Chair on Achievements and Performance

Someone in the UK is admitted to hospital every 90 seconds with an acquired brain injury (ABI), and we estimate that 9,000 ABI cases occur in Surrey every year, which is a very sobering number.

At the moment, Headway Surrey provides an invaluable service to only a small proportion of those living with ABI and their families in Surrey but our strategic aim is to steadily increase our client numbers and to help as many people with ABI as we are able to. In order to do that, we need to increase our income and ensure the Charity is in a sustainable financial position. This is the biggest challenge the Charity has to address.

Unfortunately, the fiscal year this report covers, has been another difficult year financially. The continued adverse economic situation has impacted in many areas. It has particularly affected people like our clients who have a disability or long term illness but the high cost of living also impacts our staff, our volunteers with several being unable to continue to volunteer due to having to work more hours, the ability of our supporters to continue to donate and critically the availability of funds from Grants and Foundations has become even more competitive due to the increased number of charities applying for support.

As our income has been reduced, we therefore had to release some of our invested reserves to support our ongoing operations.

We continued to work with our freelance fundraiser, Katie Heyward, who has made good progress in obtaining grants for us. We are very grateful for the grants and donations made by a broad mix of institutions, corporate sponsors and individuals who have undertaken a number of challenges and activities to generate our much-needed funds. In addition, the Joint CEOs had a notable success with the receipt of a National Lottery Reaching Communities Grant for £135,000 which is spread over 5 years.

Despite all the efforts behind income generation, we still ended the fiscal with an operating deficit for this fiscal.

In order to improve our income generation for this coming fiscal some key actions have been taken. Some of our clients are able to get funding for their rehabilitation form Surrey County Council's Adult Social Care but as public sector funding has not increased with inflation, the fees received from ASC have not covered Headway Surrey's full costs of servicing those clients. Therefore, at the end of last year, the Joint CEOs approached our Local Authority, Surrey County Council (SCC), Adult Social Care to present a case for them to increase their payments to cover full cost recovery for the services we are providing for them. After much hard work from the Joint CEO's, providing all the requested supporting information, I am delighted to report that this has resulted in two significant outcomes. Firstly, in March we were notified of a grant for this coming 12 months of this fiscal of £73,000 from the SCC, Care Commissioner through the Better Care Fund, to support the provision of services that are utilized by carers. If we had not received this significant grant, the ongoing future of the Charity would have been in severe jeopardy.

Secondly negotiations have continued with ASC to receive fees which represent full cost recovery for the clients we support for them and we have recently been notified that the fees will increase from July'24 to the level requested. This is a significant positive step to ensure the charity can continue on a sounder financial footing.

Our staff team and volunteer team have continued to support our clients in every way they can. The hospital Link Workers were able to form the bridge between primary care medical professions and our services, ensuring that people newly injured are aware of our services. Our monthly Drop Ins, Walking Talking Groups and Young Persons Group have proved very popular again this year.

We have had several changes in our staff team this year, which of course is very disruptive. Recruitment has been challenging, taking more time than usual, however we were delighted to welcome Charlotte Bagchi and Laura Bisset as Rehabilitation Assistants during the year.

The Board of Trustees has undergone some changes as well. Our long-standing Chair, Rebecca Bowden, had stayed on beyond the end of her official term to help steer the Charity through the year end challenges but then stood down in March. We thank her for her many years of expertly guiding the charity and for her hard work and dedication to supporting the team, including the Board, and the clients. I have stepped into the role of Interim Chair until such time as we have managed to recruit a replacement Chair. Four Trustees also stepped down during this past fiscal, for a variety of reasons, and I would like to thank Gen Dearman, Will Glover, Jennifer Hannah and Louise Gostling for their valued contribution to the Charity. Beth Lowe has also taken a sabbatical for the foreseeable future. I am pleased to report that in this current fiscal, we have successfully welcomed 4 new Trustees to the Board: Ian MacFarlane, Jackie Payne, Philippa Davies and Natasha Felles whose appointment will be officially confirmed at our AGM in October.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES For The Year Ended 31 March 2024

I would like to pay tribute to our wonderful staff and volunteer team, and our fabulous trustees (existing, past and new) without whom we would be unable to continue providing such life-changing support to our clients. In particular, our Joint CEOs Sonja Freebody and Maggee Fulleylove who have worked tirelessly to support the team, and our clients. It is a real honor to work with such a dedicated and professional team, who care so deeply about each person that we support.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The accounts for the year ending 31 March 2024 show total income amounting to £280,538 (2023: £194,849) and resources expended of £290,441 (2023: £241,329). A deficit of £3,770 (2023: £58,744 deficit) was recorded in the year following the inclusion of a £6,133 gain on investments (2023: £12,264 loss).

This performance represents a significant turn around compared to recent years. It has been largely driven by the work of the freelance fundraiser appointed late in the previous financial year resulting in a significant increase in grant receipts. However, there was also strong growth in fee income, 9%, which is fundamental to the long term success of the Charity.

Reserves policy

The Reserves Policy is reviewed annually. It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to 6 months expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level would ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they would be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. Trustees have supported a cautious reserves policy for two reasons:

At the end of March 2024 Headway Surrey Head Injuries Association Ltd carried £275,464 unrestricted reserves, equal to 14.5 months operating costs based on the results of the year. Of those funds, £39,457 represent free reserves. Unrestricted reserves includes the revalued cost of the leasehold property, which is disproportionately high compared to annual income and expenditure. For this reason, the Charity considers free reserves to be a more accurate measure of its ability to meet financial obligations as they fall due and have set a target of maintaining 2 months of average expenditure. The level held at the year end is equal to 1.6 months of expenditure.

In response to historically low level of free reserves, the Finance Committee has continued to carry out an enhanced cash flow review on a monthly basis throughout the year. This has ensured that funds have been made available when well in advance of potential cash flow issues arising and as a result the Charity has faced no issues with paying creditors during the year.

Strategic Development Fund and Investments

The Strategic Development Fund (SDF) is a designated fund earmarked for improving the provision of existing services and developing new services in response to the needs of our beneficiaries as directed by the Trustees. The fund is substantially made up by an investment portfolio. Cash income generated by the investments will be available for unrestricted use by the Charity, whilst gains on investment values shall remain within the designated fund.

In December 2023 it was deemed necessary to reclassify £30,000 from the SDF to unrestricted funds, to enable the Charity to meet monthly expenditures. At the time of writing this report, no further reclassifications have been made and a strong performance through the 2024 calendar year has significantly alleviated the Charity's cash flow concerns.

It is the objective of the Charity that for the investment portfolio, total annualised returns over a three year period exceed average annual CPI over the same period. Total annual returns will be measured using an industry standard, and will account for additions to, and withdrawals from, the capital invested. This level of return is considered necessary to justify the risk to capital inherent with investments of this nature. It is deemed inappropriate to make a full appraisal of the investments at this stage due to exceptional economic conditions over the last three years, however, there has been an encouraging recovery in the value of the investment portfolio during the year.

Headway Surrey Head Injuries Association Ltd retains a long-term interest in the site at North Road, Guildford, having leased the land from Windsor and District Housing Association for a period of 125 years, at a peppercorn rent.

Headway Surrey Head Injuries Association Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Headway House, 21 North Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU2 9PU.

2. 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 charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Going concern

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The Trustees have made this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of these financial statements.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised one the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset's use.

Support and governance costs are allocated to charitable activities (85%) and fundraising costs (15%) to reflect the underlying activity levels.

Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their head useful live on the following bases:

Leasehold land and buildings - Nil
Day centre equipment - 5 years straight-line
Fixtures and fittings - 5 years straight-line
Computers - 5 years straight-line

Freehold land is not depreciated.

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of replacement cost and cost.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

Taxation

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

Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Financial instruments

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within on year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if a payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

Concessionary loans

Concessionary loans with no set repayment date are measured at the amount received, adjusted for any amounts repaid and accrued interest.

Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Key sources and estimation of uncertainty

Valuation of investments

A key accounting estimate is the value at which trustees recognise investments. The risk of misstatement is mitigated by the use of investment managers who publish a portfolio valuation. Listed investments are valued by reference to their market value prevailing at the balance sheet date.

Land and buildings with a carrying amount of £245,000 were revalued in September 201 by a RICS registered independent valuer not connected with the charity on the basis of market value. The valuation conforms to International Valuation Standards and was based on recent market transactions on arm's length terms for similar properties.

At 31 March 2024, had the revalued assets been carried at historic cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, their carrying amount would have been approximately £172,139 (2023 - £172,139).

The revaluation surplus is disclosed on the balance sheet.

Restricted Funds

Fixed asset donations were received for the purchase of fixed assets for continued use by the charity. A balance of £75,000 relates to the Lottery Fund grant for property which is not depreciated and a further £3,000 relates to a donation towards a new door for the premises.

Grants were received from several entities towards specific projected, including the National Lottery.

Unrestricted Funds

o The Strategic Development Fund (SDF) is held for projects which aim to secure and expand the provision of future services and help more people suffering with acquired brain injury. It consists substantially of the charity's investment portfolio and the gain or loss on the value of investments is included within income or expenditure.

o The Temporary employee fund, previously the Link Worker fund, provides funding to fill short term roles that meet the aims of the SDF. If a role becomes permanent, expenditure will then be met by unrestricted reserves.

o The Bursary fund is available for clients undergoing financial hardship, to ensure their continued access to Headway Surrey's services.

o The Carers Pilot fund was set up to develop the Carers Survival Toolkit courses. The courses have been successfully implemented, so the unused funds were transferred to unrestricted reserves in the year.

o The Building Development fund was established to research and implement improvements to the Headway building and physical facilities.

o The Website Development fund was established to fund improvements in the Headway website and the website facilities.
