## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

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 2022. 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Our Vision** 

That people with learning disabilities have the same rights, opportunities, and quality of life as the rest of the population. 

## **Our Mission** 

To believe in every person we support, encouraging people to have fun, spend time with friends and to feelgood. 

## The charity's objectives are: 

- The relief of people with learning disabilities or other complex needs arising from disability, illness, 

- - disease, or ageing, but not exclusively by providing an advocacy service. 

   - To alleviate the conditions of life among people who are caring or have cared for people with learning 

- disabilities at home, and who are in necessitous circumstances. 

- To advance public education concerning learning disabilities and related issues and about caring 

- - amongst carers and the public. 

## **Public Benefit** 

A learning disability can affect anyone. LD:NorthEast previously began life in 1983 as a mutual support network for families that had a member who had a learning disability. After 10 years as a support network, it was realised that the skills and the expertise were there to be able to do more practical work to alleviate the disadvantages people who have a learning disability suffer. So, in 1993, and in every year since, LDF as it was previously and LD:NorthEast as it is now has been providing wellbeing support as well as championing the cause of the learning disability community. In every project or activity we run, being user-led is at the forefront, ensuring we take an approach that does not assume what a person wants or needs but which seeks to provide an individual, personalised support at all times. We are committed to working in partnership with Local Authorities, NHS Trusts, partners in the community and voluntary sector and any others who support our client group. LD:NorthEast works with partners within the context of health and social care within the remit of our aims and objectives.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

LD:NorthEast are a local charity engaging with people who have lived experience of learning disabilities, learning difficulties and autism. We work across North Tyneside and offer support from birth right through to older life. 

People with learning disabilities, learning difficulties and autism are some of the most marginalised people in our communities, and we know that the people we support can have significant challenges in their lives. On a daily basis people tell us about their experiences of loneliness and isolation, health worries, mental health issues, hate crime and much more. 

Our vision is that the people we support are able to live their life their way. Our work is about bringing people together, and we aim to tackle social isolation and the effects of loneliness by supporting people with some of the basics that we feel are crucial to wellbeing. 

**Fun** We know that the effects of loneliness and exclusion can lead to low mood and dips in motivation. We organise a wide range of activities and events which are all about having a good time. 

**Friends** We help people to develop and maintain friendship groups by organising activities, social groups and informal drop in support to bring people together. 

**Feel-good** We know that people with learning disabilities want to look after their own health and lead a healthy lifestyle, but for many a gym membership isn't that simple and a GP appointment can be a cause for anxiety. We support people with health appointments as well as delivering interactive workshops on a range of health related topics. 

LD:NorthEast reach over 600 people from birth to later years in any 12 month period within North Tyneside who have a learning disability. 

## **Community Outreach Service** 

Our Community Outreach Service provides an alternative to more traditional building based day services as we know this doesn't work for everyone. Our individual outreach service supports over 100 people on a oneto-one basis / group basis to do the things that they want to do, including managing everyday tasks, meeting up with friends, taking part in social activities and volunteering. 

As well as one-to-one and group based support we also organise short breaks for individuals and small groups, and monthly day trips for anyone who just wants to visit somewhere new for the day.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE - continued** 

## **BBC Children in Need Early Years Project** 

Our Early Years Project has been providing support to children and families across North Tyneside since 2012. We support children to learn and develop through play and provide opportunities to bring families together. Our groups and activities are designed for children aged 0-5 who have learning and/or physical disabilities, communication difficulties, complex health needs or life limiting conditions. 

Our regular home visits and hospital visits stopped at the beginning of the national lockdown, but we continued to provide support to colleagues in the Early Years Home Teaching Service and paediatric therapy/medical colleagues via online meetings, phone calls, emails and video chats. 

Many of the children we support who had been preparing to start nursery were shielding due to their health needs, so the transition element of our support also took place via technology. We continued to offer advice, guidance, and practical support to teaching and support staff remotely. 

We delivered equipment, toys, and fruit baskets, as well as offering support with shopping for food and collecting prescriptions. During the school summer holidays in July and August we arranged outdoor socially distanced meet ups so that families could get together, and we also delivered daily Sing & Sign and Sign a Story sessions via Zoom. 

In this reporting period we have been awarded another 3-year funding from BBC Children in Need. 

## **BBC Children in Need #MeTime Project** 

Our #MeTime project offers activities and support designed specifically for children who may have a young sibling(s) with complex physical, communication, medical or learning difficulties. We provide lots of exciting activities and trips during the school holidays where they can forget their individual challenges and just focus on having some fun, spending time with friends and enjoying some much needed me time. 

In this reporting period we have been successful in gaining another 3 years funding from Children in Need. 

We were incredibly proud that our work was highlighted by BBC Children in Need in November 2020, in the run up to the main appeal night. One of the families supported by both our #MeTime and Early Years projects was featured in the BBC1 documentary "Life in Lockdown"; showing how we adapted the way we work to continue supporting children and families throughout the pandemic. 

## **Tomorrows Project** 

Our successful Tomorrows Project delivered its final year from 2021 / 2022. 

The project worked with people from North Tyneside with learning disabilities or learning difficulties who are growing older and qualify for little or no formal support. Light touch support was provided in the form of regular contact, organised activities and hand-holding / signposting to help with benefits, health issues and managing everyday tasks.

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE - continued** 

## **Safer Tomorrows Hate Crime Awareness Project** 

We are very committed to supporting people with learning disabilities who are victims of hate crime, mate crime or exploitation. Our Safer Tomorrows project helps people to feel safe and confident about being part of their community and feel comfortable about reporting incidents and crimes through the appropriate channels. We have been informed that the Coop will fund our work from November 2022. 

## **Health & Wellbeing Project** 

Our Health & Wellbeing Project is funded by the North Tyneside Clinical Commissioning Group. It provides light touch support with the aim of driving down health inequalities and improving overall health outcome and experiences for people who have a learning disability. We provide support to attend health appointments, which helps to reduce fears and anxieties, and enables people to build up the right conversations with health care professionals. We also deliver appropriate and meaningful educational programmes and workshops to raise awareness of health conditions and motivate people to manage their own health. 

Towards the end of the year, we were extremely pleased to secure further funding from North Tyneside CCG for our work to continue, and we are very excited that from September 2021 we have been running a structured education programme for people who have been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes as part of the project. The programme will take place over seven weeks and will help to improve people's understanding of how to manage their diabetes. 

## **Primary Care Support** 

In December 2020 we began working in partnership with the Primary Care Networks in North Shields and North West North Tyneside to offer personalised support to patients who have a learning disability. Our aim is to work with GP surgeries to identify patients who would benefit from some additional support to manage their health and wellbeing, particularly people who are anxious or have concerns about attending health related appointments. 

We have two Care Co-ordinators who support patients to attend annual health checks, make sure everyone is provided with accessible information and assist patients who may need to link in with additional health and care services. We also have a Health & Wellbeing Coach who supports and motivates patients to make healthy lifestyle choices, maintain long term behaviour changes and start to look after their own health and wellbeing. 

In this financial year we have secured funding to employ a young persons coordinator who is now in place in the North West PCN.

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE - continued** 

## **Partnership working** 

We are a well established organisation and for many years we have had a great working relationship with North Tyneside Council. We also work well with VODA a VCS support organisation in North Tyneside. We work in partnership with the CCG, PCN and Community whole life disability team as part of our existing services and projects. 

Currently since November 2021 we have been working collaboratively with several organisations across the North of Tyne region to explore how both statutory and voluntary services can be realigned in a more creative and flexible way for the benefit of people with lived experience of learning disabilities. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal Funding Sources Thank-you** 

We are very grateful to all of our supporters, and the trustees would like to take the opportunity to thank all of the organisations, trusts & foundations and individuals who have supported the work of LD:NorthEast financially. BBC Children in Need, North Tyneside Clinical Commissioning Group, North West North Tyneside Primary Care Network, North Shields Primary Care Network, North Tyneside VODA, Orbis Support, Arnold Clark, Ringtons, North Tyneside Council, RISE, Active NT, Carnegie UK Trust, Cheshire Trust. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Total reserves at 31 March 2022 amounted to £286,742 (£260,828 [as restated] in 2020/21) of which £45,961 (£43,476 [as restated] in 2020/21) was subject to restriction,  £9,510 (£6,784 [as restated] in 2020/21) was designated and a further £14,834 (£17,714 [as restated] in 2020/21) was represented by illiquid assets; the free reserves of the charity amounted to £216,437 (£192,854 [as restated] in 2020/21). The Reserves policy currently approved by the trustees is to try to ensure that staff can continue working and that service users continue to be supported as long as possible. More specifically, reasons why the charity hold reserves include funding working capital; to meet any unexpected expenditure; to fund shortfalls in income and any possible curtailment of services. 

Consequently, after assessing the areas of risk, the trustees are able to justify holding reserves at a minimum of around £216k. However, an effective reserves policy is one that is constantly under review having regard to the changing financial, regulatory and competitive environment in which the charity is placed, and a reassessment of the reserves policy is carried out on an annual basis. 

## **Transactions and financial position** 

Incoming resources in the year were £1,136,017 (£1,013,171 [as restated] in 2020/21). Of this £221,376 (£163,092 [as restated] in 2020/21) related to project restricted activities. 

The financial statements show a surplus for the year of £25,914 (£66,518 [as restated] in 2020/21). This comprises a surplus of £2,485 (deficit of £11,773 [as restated] in 2020/21) in restricted funds and a surplus of £23,429 (£78,291 [as restated] in 2020/21) in unrestricted funds.

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

Just prior to the start of the last financial year the world was hit by the Coronavirus outbreak and the UK went into complete lockdown. This had a huge impact on the people we support, as they are already some of the most vulnerable and isolated people in our community. Being able to maintain support networks and take part in regular activities is crucial to maintaining good physical and mental health, and people with learning disabilities will really feel the effects of their routines being disrupted. Families also felt the effects of being stuck at home all the time without their usual support and respite. 

Navigating through COVID post lockdown this year has been difficult, but we have been successful with funding to help cope with the situation. We have continued to adapt and grow and been very flexible with our support during and after lockdown in this period, we have always kept the people we support at the heart of everything we do. 

We are currently doing some research with families and carers to look at possibly delivering a Family Project in the next 12 months. We are looking at several funders who we feel our outcomes may fit the criteria. 

We are also looking at the possibility of creating an Engagement Coordinators post which will enhance the participation and peer support work we are currently delivering through our existing projects.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of LD:NorthEast for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees 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 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable 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 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. 

In so far as the trustees are aware: 

- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and 

- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information. 

## **AUDITORS** 

The auditors Read, Milburn & Co, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

Approved by order of the board of trustees on 28 October 2022 and signed on its behalf by: 


Ms C Gavin - Trustee

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF LD:NORTHEAST** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of LD:NorthEast (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement 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 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

## In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year 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 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the charitable company 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 22 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 a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

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

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **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 Report of the Independent Auditors 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 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. 

Page 10 



**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF LD:NORTHEAST** 

## **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 Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Report of the Trustees has 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 charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where 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; or 

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

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

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 trustees 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 charitable company'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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Page 11 



## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF LD:NORTHEAST** 

## **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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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. 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 basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. In this regard, our procedures include the following: 

- enquiry of management around actual and potential litigation and claims; 

- reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; 

- reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business. 

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. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charitable company'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 charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

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**

Improvements to property -  in accordance with the property Fixtures and fittings -  20% on cost
