The charity has received income of £609,977 £609,977 (2022: £509,392) and incurred expenditure of £523,145 £523,145 (2022: £415,700) in the year, leaving a surplus for the year of £86,832 (2022: £93,692).

The changes made in 2022/23 were significant and had an impact. They were as follows;

Going forward into 2023/24 the following changes have been made;

Principal funding sources

Calderdale College Core Funding

Funding bands again remained static and this continues to prove to be an issue for Project Challenge. With an unpredictable client group it is difficult to manage both success factors and whether they will remain on full time programmes once enrolled to draw down maximum funding rates. The College funding was exhausted by December 2022 with an agreement of further enrolments to be determined on merit by individual case. The programme had a 95% progression rate and a 97% success rate.

Project Challenge remains the sole provider of roll on/off Study Programme in Calderdale. The client group are the most vulnerable young people furthest away from the employment market. This year has continued to see an increase in the number of vulnerable learners from neighbouring authorities and also from Calderdale, who were previously educated outside of the Borough, as ‘alternative’ post 16 educational provision is dwindling in their areas. The Local Authority has pledged to retain within the borough as many of their own vulnerable young people as part of future cost cutting plans.

The Project was successful in securing £51,000 from the Community Foundation to run a Healthy Holidays programme throughout the year for each of the school holidays. This included provision at Orange Box for 13-19 year olds, participating in games, healthy eating and craft activities. One element was in partnership with the Local Authority's Play Services and included employing Project Challenge learners to work in the café producing healthy meals for young people across the Borough, in receipt of Free School Meals.

Orange Box

Being housed at Orange Box has enabled further partnerships regarding opportunities for learners with the Healthy Holidays funding.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st July 2023

The charity aims to maintain a sufficient level of reserves to ensure that uninterrupted services may continue in the event of short term short term term funding problems, funding being withdrawn, redundancy payments and settlement of creditors.

The charity has a policy to retain reserves equivalent to 6 months running costs, which is £261,572 based on the 22/23 financial year. The rationale being that in the event of delays or cuts to funding the charity can continue to provide its services.
