Report of the Trustees
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 2025. 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
Principal Activities and Objectives
The centre provides resources for a wide range of groups and agencies (meeting rooms, counselling rooms, office space and equipment, information base etc). These are involved with mental health, substance abuse, homelessness, domestic abuse, relationship problems, bereavement counselling, probation service and so on. We are a well-established and key resource for these groups and agencies that enables them to provide their services on a local level. These groups are a mix of statutory agencies, third sector organisations, mutual support groups, housing agencies, counselling services etc. We continue to offer direct support for individuals who present at the centre in crisis and/or requiring further information and immediate support. Breakfast is provided on 3 mornings per week, no need to book, and the centre continues to support individuals who walk in, in crisis and requiring support. The service has developed, and we have targeted interventions and activities available to the individuals every day of the week. We encourage attendees to engage in a specific activity and the numbers to these targeted activities have been high. We have an ICAN Mental Health occupational therapist working at the centre as part of a pilot scheme in partnership with BCUHB, who sees patients on an appointment basis booked by Canolfan Felin Fach staff.
Support from the local community:
We receive a food donation from ALDI on a weekly basis, food received supports the luncheon provided on 3 days per week.
Public benefit
Having considered the Charity Commission guidance regarding public benefit we are satisfied that the charity's activities during the year , as described , satisfy the test .
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Centre continues to receive a high volume of attendees and continues to support our community to the tune of 500 interventions per month. The centre is developing a range of activities and is working with established and new partners such as McMillan, Coleg Meirion Dwyfor the Harm Reduction Service, Penrhyn House - offering pre and post detox information and support sessions for those affected by substance misuse, and BCUHB's Integrated Autism Service to name a few. The kitchen has been awarded a 5-star food hygiene rating by Cyngor Gwynedd and is a resource available for hire to the wider community.
The centre continues to deliver ICAN services, receiving referrals from a host of stakeholders which include GPs, the Community Mental Health Team, Housing Associations, the food bank and DWP. Interventions include one to one support either face to face or over the telephone or structured groups such as the quilting group and support groups such as AA and emotional support groups.
Cyngor Gwynedd contributes as core funders but also through two grants - the Community Hub fund (£18,000) to support individuals who are struggling due to the cost of living pressures resulting from the recent pandemic and food/fuel poverty. Additional funding of £9,000 was received from Cyngor Gwynedd this year to upgrade furniture and furnishings at the centre, and to purchase a large tv for our large multipurpose room, to facilitate the delivery of training opportunities. An additional £3,000 was received to deliver Croeso Cynnes/Warm Welcome services, offering individuals a warm and safe space with refreshments during challenging winter months.
The centre continues to provide a holistic person-centred approach to improve mental and physical health and wellbeing.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The centre manager will continue to identify efficiency savings within the budget and seek funding from other sources. The excess expenditure over income this year amounted to £41,932. There are unrestricted reserves of £472,450 and restricted reserves of £85,086 at the year end.

Report of the Trustees
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The charity has adopted a reserves policy. The charity will endeavour to achieve a minimum reserve equivalent to three months running costs.
Risk Management
The trustees have a risk management strategy, which comprises:
-
Annual review of the risks the company may face
-
Systems and procedures to mitigate any risks that are identified, and
-
Implementation of procedures designed to minimize any potential impact on the company should those risks materialise.
A key element of financial risk is the setting of a reserves policy and its regular review by the trustees.
The main perceived financial risk to the company would be the withdrawal of the revenue funding for carrying out and developing the centre's work effectively. The risk is minimised by ensuring that the company's activities continue to comply with the funder's criteria for the funding received, this is done by maintaining links with funders and providing relevant reports as required.
FUTURE PLANS
Canolfan Felin Fach will continue to deliver existing support but will include the additional resources in 2025/26:
Working with Penrhyn House, Bangor to cofacilitate a pre-detox support group.
Continue to host the Pwllheli and Llyn Cancer Support Group.
Create a Grief Support Group.
Offer a placement facility to five Masters in Counselling students from Bangor University.
Develop a Post Suicide Support Service called Enfys Alice (launched in April 2025) by means of a North Wales 6 counties roadshow to raise awareness and publicise the soon to be launched service.
Develop a new website for Felin Fach (www.felin-fach.co.uk) and rebrand with a new logo.
Develop more robust safety procedures by installing a fob-activated inner door to manage clients who attend the centre and safeguard users and staff.
Upgrade fire alarm systems and procedures.
Review, update and create a host of Centre Policies and Procedures with support from Business Wales.
Ensure the Centre is up to date with Health and Safety and PR support via Peninsula Business Services.
The Centre will offer a clinical space (with laminate flooring and sink) to enable clinicians to hire the centre and to see patients in the community.
Staff will be trained to support individuals at risk of suicide and to support families and friends of individuals who have taken their own lives. One member of staff is planning to offer an anxiety support group. Plans are also underway to prepare a joint bid to CFP and the National Lottery for a grant to carry out essential structural exterior work on the building. Wakemans are preparing a cost analysis and brief to support the grant applications. In addition to the structural and exterior work the grant will cover developing waste land at the back of the building to house an additional building which may offer a mending and recycling service (for tools and other appliances) to encourage individuals to engage whilst offering a valid service to the community.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Canolfan Felin Fach Centre Limited
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Canolfan Felin Fach Centre Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.
