Volunteers
We currently have five volunteers who increase the quality of the services and programs that the charitable company provides. They are particularly beneficial to the organisation when we offer a specific kind of service or program for example, our peer education program, we would be unable to offer this particular service as we do not have the skills in-house to do so.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Introduction
The year 2022 was still somewhat impacted by the Covid – 19 pandemic, changes made throughout the pandemic have stayed and have become the norm as in most meetings are now carried out via teams, there is very little face to face meetings, with both external agencies and support services alike.
Numerous challenges that have impacted the Charity including the demand for our services, the cost-of-living crisis and the increasing risk of utility bills surges, thankfully our prices were capped until October 2023 in all but one of our services, which has been a blessing in these uncertain times. In this economically and demanding environment we have still succeeded in increasing our income and have offered additional funded bed spaces to unaccompanied looked after children across all sites. We continue to run the SSTS (Somewhere Safe to Stay) contract with Durham County Council, helping closing the financial year with a higher net profit from last year.
Mission Statement
YMCA Wearside provides and supports opportunities that enable young people to develop their personal and social skills, contribute positively to their communities and make informed choices, whilst engaging in the transition to responsible adulthood through our supported accommodation projects. Our work is based on the voluntary nature of the relationships we build with young people, focussing particularly in areas of higher relative social deprivation and homelessness.
Our parameters
• We work in partnership with the voluntary sector and local communities to build capacity and enable them to provide opportunities for homeless young people.
• We work with 16-35 year-old homeless people offering supported accommodation.
- We run two specialised schemes for Looked After young people that accommodate Sunderland, Durham, North Tyneside, Gateshead as well as the occasional placement from out of area local authorities.
Our core delivery
We deliver work that enables young people to participate in the running of their provision and have their voices heard in their communities through our peer support programmes.
Supporting the development of the ‘Big Society’ by helping homeless communities to build their capacity to provide their own youth provision. We also enable to involve young people in decision-making processes, thus developing future community leaders. We also support vulnerable homeless people who are accessing specialist and targeted support.

Report of the Trustees (Continued) For the year ended 31 December 2022
Churchview and Harvester continues to be utilised by several local authorities, both sites are mostly bed blocked, we continue to use other sites as an overflow as the demand for accommodation continues.
Chester – Le – Street secured our second contract with Durham County Council to house rough sleepers SSTS beds x 3 £86,625.00 until March 2024, we continue to receive some amazing feedback for the service we offer.
Throughout the year all accommodation sites have been audited YMCA Sunderland by British Assessment Bureau for the ISO 9001 version 2015, which passed with flying colours, recording no major or minor conformities, YMCA Harvester by Stockton Local Authority and Churchview by Surrey Local Authority, both of which passed with positive feedback.
Our Performance Story
The following table shows the numbers of homeless people we were able to accommodate during the year across the organisation and how many of these were able to move on to independent living. It also illustrates the numbers of people we were able to assist through support both in terms of family mediation and assisting people who were at risk of re-offending.

We continue to offer the stability and support that young people need to make progress and help them to access new opportunities and experiences that inspire them to set ambitious goals for themselves. This means celebrating their successes, but also recognising that they will sometimes make mistakes and need help to get back on track. It also means supporting them to gain the skills and confidence to live independent lives, while letting them know that they have someone to call on for help if the going gets tough.
With this in mind, 110 young people have attended the Wise programme with 40 receiving support into sustained employment, 6 becoming self-employed all undertaking various training courses including CSCS courses, security training, retail qualifications, CPC driving courses to become HGV drivers etc, 51 moving from being economically inactive to accessing job search and attending interviews and including 59 moving into counselling and/or recovery to gain support with a long term view to becoming employed. The Wise programme has also been offered to 33 members of the local community offering a range of support to remove barriers to employment. During COVID we had moved most of our provision to a virtual platform with interviews and support being offered via Teams etc plus telephone calls, meeting in parks etc and this was very popular. Following this we decided to offer a hybrid style of delivery incorporating the virtual platform with one-to-one support.

The lives of young homeless people in 2022
Young people become homeless for a variety of reasons, but most often a prolonged period of stress and disputes at home, majority of youth do not become homeless by choice. We know that stress in families continues to increase across the country as unemployment and reduced living standards makes life harder for everyone.
Living in Sunderland YMCA and possible obstacles we may face
Those that we work with are often on the margins of society and there can be a range of factors that contribute to them being NEET. Evidence suggests that they will have more than one barrier to face and a longer journey to employment – lack of qualifications, personal circumstances, attitudes, mental health issues, behaviours and experiences can make up one or many of the challenges they face.
Objectives and Future Plans
In recent years young people have faced many challenges as well as Covid including high levels of youth employment and rising cost of living. In response the government has introduced a range of measures to support young people including apprenticeships and employment schemes, etc, and we continue to work with local government and organisations so that those that we work with are the beneficiaries of these schemes.
The future of young people's funding will likely be shaped by a number of factors including economic conditions, government policy and demographic trends. Therefore, we will continue to apply for funding, work in partnership with other organisations including local government etc in order to attain the funding we need to operate a high-level service.
To date, we have been able to provide a targeted and high-quality services so that young people can progress and we are striving to offer education with access to work experience, information, advice and guidance. As well as our mental health support, we now offer a comprehensive well-being program including yoga, mindfulness etc so that the young people we work with develop resilience, take care of themselves and have a more positive future. We have secured funding which has meant that we have been able to offer some extra essential services including food parcel schemes, participate in the city’s Warm Spaces Project etc and continue to offer some of our services online. In addition, we have managed to secure funding to extend the service we can offer rough sleepers and further funding to provide a housing and advice drop-in. This has enabled us to expand the service we provide both internally to those we work with and also to the local communities we are situated in.
Progress on the YMCA Wearside business plan 2022-2025
2022 has been a busy year for the YMCA across all sites, due to the increase of demand to house unaccompanied young people seeking asylum, we have utilised bed spaces in YMCA Sunderland, YMCA Chester Le – Street and one outreach property. With the funds greatly received for supporting these young people we have been able to renew a lot of items that were worn and outdated, this includes furniture packages, new carpets throughout, new laptops for staff on all sites and new IT server, these small changes have made the accommodation a lot more welcoming and homely as well as making staff lives easier with faster and more up to date technology.
We are continuing to strive to maintain our housing stock which includes 109 bed spaces. One outreach property was sold by the landlord this year which decreased our housing stock by 4. We have also handed notice on Sunrise House which will be handed back to the landlord in October 2023, the property has outgrown our use. There are plans in the future to look for a property similar to the specialised schemes in the Houghton/Hetton area to help combat the continued bed blocking.
Training continues to be of a high standard for staff including specialised training for unaccompanied asylum seekers provided by local authorities.
In addition, we are now adding to the portfolio of opportunities offered to staff in regards to their personal development and this includes qualifications in trauma informed care and various safeguarding courses etc.

Influencing national and local policy:
Nationally, YMCA continues to play an important role in in shaping policies and attitudes towards youth and community development. The organisation has a strong advocacy voice and works with government and other stakeholders to promote the rights and needs of young people. An example of this would be the proposed regulation of Young Peoples Supported Accommodation and YMCA Wearside took part in the YMCA’s fact-finding exercise to feed back to government in order to contribute to the shaping of this proposal.
YMCA Wearside has continued to strengthen its voice and is now involved nationally with a place on YMCA Rough Sleeping Panel, the Room Sponsor Scheme and the Changing Futures Program.
Locally we sit on the VCAS panel, the Sunderland Wellbeing Network, Sunderland Poverty Forum, the Improving Lives Forum and we have staff who are COVID Champions for the City. In addition, we have representatives at Sunderland Councils Strategic Advice Services meetings, at the Rough Sleeping Strategic Group and have regular meetings at a senior level with Sunderland Councils housing team.
Board development in 2021/22
The Board of YMCA Wearside continued their board development through 2021/22; Board members continue to be helpful throughout the year and have been involved in recent staff wage discussions on possible increases to stay in line with the Living Wage.
The trustees have reviewed budgets and considered the implications of the current cost of living crisis. These are monitored on a monthly basis and do not highlight any concerns to the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Board still show a very strong set of relevant professional skills. New board members are given an induction pack which includes the policies and business plan of the organisation and from the information they provide we are able to update the areas of expertise which need to be fulfilled.
Managing risks facing the YMCA
The board carefully considers risk in all areas of our work. The safety of staff and young people are maintained by formal assessment and constant work to ensure everyone is included and able to contribute ideas and concerns.
Areas of risk for 2022
-
Cost of Living Crisis, utility bills etc
-
Housing Benefit uplift
-
Ring fenced discretionary funding model
-
Supported Housing; the loss of long-term security and certainty of funding, the incompatibility of the proposed system with the social security system, the level of responsibility given to the local authorities, the obstacles created to service users successfully transitioning to independent living.
-
Limited Funding Streams
-
Contract holders losing contracts for example Wise
-
Living wage increase over the next 5 years.
-
Pension enrolment costs from April 2017
-
Pension deficit
The Board regularly reviews arrangements to manage and reduce risk.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal funding sources
The charitable company’s main sources of income are Housing Benefit, along with rent from residents and Supported Housing located at our Outreach, Sunderland, Chester le Street, Harvester and Church View sites which provides accommodation for 32, 24, 30, 7 and 8 beds respectively, with training facilities available at all sites.
Funding from the City Council:
A lot of time again has gone into working with the council over 2022 which has included attending a weekly accommodation panel meeting. This has resulted in a steady flow of referrals from the Social Services Department Together for Children. We also attend virtual teams’ meetings with Sunderland Council Strategic Advice Services, Rough sleepers Strategic Group and meetings with senior level Sunderland Council Strategic Team, VICAS Panel, Sunderland Well Being Network, Sunderland Poverty Forum and Improving Lives Forum. We will continue to seek out other funding streams to ensure the continuing future of the YMCA.
Financial review
The charitable company made a surplus of £109,793 (2021 - £177,049)
The whole of the charitable company's income has been applied to the principal activity of the charitable company.
Investment policy
The charitable company currently holds funds within two banking organisations, one being a savings account for reserves and the others being current accounts for daily business. All proceeds from the sale of Front Street mentioned above has been deposited within our Savings account for possible future investment.
Reserves policy
The trustees have decided that the charitable company hold a reserves policy whereby free reserves of £200,000 are maintained. This would provide sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs for a period of three to six months whilst replacement funding could be secured.
The free reserves held at the balance sheet date amounted to £570,460.
Total reserves at 31 December 2022 were £1,675,823 of which £1,148,748 relates to designated funds. Further details can be found in note 19.

FUTURE PLANS
The focus over the coming year is to maintain the provision we currently have as well as actively look for premises in the Houghton/Hetton area to open a third specialised looked after scheme.
Both sites are providing invaluable support for vulnerable young people across Wearside and are not only maintained to a high standard but are homes as the images below show:
Renovation work is due to come to an end at Toward Road through Karbon Homes, this has been a long process but hopefully will come to an end soon. When this is finished, IT will start work on getting Wi-Fi access for young people in the residential area.

Independent Auditors’ Report to the members of YMCA Wearside Limited For the year ended 31 December 2022
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of YMCA Wearside Limited (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (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 December 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 Auditor’s 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 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 group’s or parent 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.

If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Independent Auditors’ Report to the members of YMCA Wearside Limited (Continued) For the year ended 31 December 2022
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 12, 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.
Auditor’s 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 an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with 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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to both the charitable company itself and the industry in which it operates. We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our sector experience and through discussion with the directors and other management. The most significant were identified as the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, UK GAAP (FRS102) and relevant tax legislation. We considered the extent of compliance with those laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statements. Our audit procedures included:
-
making enquires of trustees and management as to where they consider there to be a susceptibility to fraud and whether they have any knowledge or suspicion of fraud;
-
obtaining an understanding of the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or noncompliance with laws and regulations;
-
reviewing the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
assessing the risk of management override including identifying and testing journal entries;
-
confirmation received directly from the banks to verify the balance at 31 December 2022.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Independent Auditors’ Report to the members of YMCA Wearside Limited (Continued) For the year ended 31 December 2022
Our audit did not identify any key audit matters relating to the detection of irregularities including fraud. However, despite the audit being planned and conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) there remains an unavoidable risk that material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected owing to inherent limitations of the audit, and that by their very nature, any such instances of fraud or irregularity likely involve collusion, forgery, intentional misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls.
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 auditor’s report.
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 auditor’s 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.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022
1. Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
YMCA Wearside Limited meets the definition of a public benefit under FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). The financial statements are prepared in Sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
1.2 Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees have reviewed and considered relevant information, including the annual budgets in making their assessment. Based on these assessments, the increased level of demand for the services and the additional funding available the trustees have concluded that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.
1.3 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
Income from charitable activities includes income received under contract or where entitlement to grant funding is subject to specific performance conditions and is recognised as earned. Grant income included in this category provides funding to support performance activities and is recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty. Income received to deliver services over a specific period covering more than one financial year is accounted for over the specific period; related expenditure is accounted when incurred.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Notes to the financial statements (Continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing.
Fixed asset gifts in kind are recognised when receivable and are included at fair value. They are not deferred over the life of the asset.
Interest receivable 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.
1.5 Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is possible 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.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the cost against the expenditure was incurred.
1.6 Allocation and apportionment of costs
Support costs are those functions which assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity’s programmes and activities.
1.7 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 2% straight line Equipment - 33% on reducing balance Furniture & Fittings - 33% on reducing balance
1.8 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.
1.9 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments which are instantly accessible from the opening of the deposit or similar account.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Notes to the financial statements (Continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022
1.10 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 discounts due.
1.11 Financial instruments
The charitable company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.12 Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
YMCA Wearside participated in a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan for employees of YMCAs in England, Scotland and Wales, which was closed to new members and accruals on 30 April 2007. The plan’s actuary has advised that it is not possible to separately identify the assets and liabilities relating to YMCA Wearside for the purposes of FRS 102 disclosure.
As described in note 21 YMCA Wearside has a contractual obligation to make pension deficit payments of £9,816 pa over the period to April 2029, accordingly this is shown as a liability in note 22 to these accounts. In addition, YMCA Wearside is required to contribute £2,194 pa to the operating expenses of the Pension Plan and these costs are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as made.
1.13 Taxation
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
2. Legal status
YMCA Wearside Limited is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales, (No 03281486) and not having a share capital. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.
2.1 Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
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 of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
The trustees consider that there are no significant estimates and judgements required in preparing the financial statements.

21. Pensions
Defined benefit scheme
YMCA Wearside participated in a contributory pension plan providing defined benefits based on final pensionable pay for employees of YMCAs in England, Scotland and Wales. The assets of the YMCA Pension Plan are held separately from those of YMCA Wearside and at the year end these were invested in the Mercer Dynamic De-risking Solution, 63% matching portfolio and 37% in the growth portfolio and Schroder (property units only).
The most recent completed three year valuation was as at 1 May 2020. The assumptions used which have the most significant effect on the results of the valuation are those relating to the assumed rates of return on assets held before and after retirement of 2.59% and 1.09% respectively, the increase in pensions in payment of 2.99% (for RPI capped at 5% p.a.), and the average life expectancy from normal retirement age (of 65) for a current male pensioner of 22.0 years, female 24.4 years, and 23.7 years for a male pensioner, female 26.1 years, retiring in 20 years time. The result of the valuation showed that the actuarial value of the assets was £146.1m. This represented 79% of the benefits that had accrued to members.

YMCA Wearside Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022
The Pension Plan was closed to new members and future service accrual with effect from 30 April 2007. With the removal of the salary linkage for benefits all employed deferred members became deferred members as from 1 May 2011.
The valuation prepared as at 1 May 2020 showed that the YMCA Pension Plan had a deficit of £39 million. YMCA Wearside has been advised that it will need to make monthly contributions of £1,001 from 1 May 2022. This amount is based on the current actuarial assumptions (as outlined above) and may vary in the future as a result of actual performance of the Pension Plan. The current recovery period is 7 years commencing 1 May 2022.
In addition, YMCA Wearside may have over time liabilities in the event of the non-payment by other participating YMCAs of their share of the YMCA Pension Plan’s deficit. It is not possible currently to quantify the potential amount that YMCA Wearside may be called upon to pay in the future.
Pension Scheme – Defined contribution
Pension contributions payable for the year ended 31 December 2022 amounted to £17,465 (2021 - £17,036).
