CAVO Impact Report 2024-2025
Foreward
Welcome to the 2024-2025 Annual Impact Report which captures the achievements of the
Ceredigion Association of Voluntary Organisations (CAVO) Team.
It is once again a pleasure to present CAVO's Annual Impact Report. We extend our thanks to everyone who has supported our work during the past year, to our Board of Trustees for their guidance and commitment and to our staff team for their enthusiasm and dedication.
CAVO are a Third Sector Support Wales (TSSW) delivery partner, a consortium of county voluntary councils (CVCs) and Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA). TSSW’s collective ambitions and aspirations are reflected in our four pillars of activity:
volunteering, good governance, engagement and influencing and sustainable funding.
CAVO is committed to working positively with others and continue to collaborate on a number of key strategic partnerships across Ceredigion and West Wales including the Ceredigion Public Services Baord and the West Wales Regional Partnership Board.
Many thanks to our funding partners for their continued commitment which has enabled us to support the vital work of the third sector and volunteers in Ceredigion. Through this we were able to support and fund the inspirational work of voluntary community groups and volunteers across Ceredigion.

Progress is reported to the CAVO Board at every meeting, monitored by CAVO staff monthly with a 6 monthly staff and trustee review

Our client and staff survey system continuously monitor the quality of the service we provide and the needs of the sector locally. Findings are presented to the Board and shared with staff.
Significant activities
Good governance
CAVO has a small but well established team of experienced staff to support groups to set up and manage projects, provide information on legal issues and new developments affecting the sector. Our work is delivered in collaboration with other specialist orgaisations.
Sustainable funding
CAVO staff have been influential in the administration and allocation of several key funds in Ceredigion including Welsh Government funding through the Ceredigion Youth Led Grants, Regional Integration Funding as members of the West Wales Regional Partnership Board and working with Ceredigion County Council colleagues to distribute funding to age friendly communities and community food projects. CAVO are also active members of the Cynnal y Cardi Partnership which distributed the UK Government Shared Prosperity Fund in Ceredigion.
Volunteering
The Volunteering Team promote volunteering and provide information, advice and support to help people chose the right volunteering opportunity and offer advice to organisations on how to recruit, retain and support volunteers. The team pro-actively encourages the use of the Volunteering Wales website to promote volunteering opportunities in Ceredigion.
Engagement & Influence
As the umbrella body for the third sector in Ceredigion, the team represents the voice of the sector on a number of key strategic partnerships, fora and planning groups locally & regionally, including the Ceredigion Public Services Board (PSB) and its Project Groups, along with the West Wales Regional Partnership Board and its relevant workstreams. Ceredigion third sector fora and briefing sessions are arranged to ensure that the sector is informed of developments and has an opportunity to engage in strategy, policy and service development.
Public benefit
The trustees have a duty to report on 'public benefit' by explaining the significant activities undertaken in order to carry out the aims for the public benefit, and achievements measured against those aims. In addition, the trustees will be required to confirm that they have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

| Net (deficit)/surplus reserves (After transfers) | 66,747 | (77,682) |
Investment policy and objectives
The trustees' investment powers are governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association. The trustees have a policy of keeping any surplus as liquid funds in high interest-bearing short-term deposits, which can be accessed readily.
In July 2022 Trustees opted to open an account with the Flagstone Investment Platform to decrease the risk identified by the Trustees associated with holding balances which exceed the £85,000 FSCS compensation protection limit in one bank.
Reserves policy
The trustees aim to set aside reserves to provide financial stability and the means for the development of the charitable company's principal activity. Following consideration of the major risks the charitable company faces, a three tier policy on reserves has been established. This will establish reserves to meet short term changes, reserves to enable planning for growth and long term reserves to reduce the risks posed by large external changes in funding. The level of reserves required under the new policy is regularly reviewed and the trustees feel that in light of the current financial climate it is prudent to maintain reserves at their current level. The trustees are currently confident that the charitable company can meet contributions from projected future income.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
FUTURE PLANS
Details of future developments are available in a separate annual report, presented at the Annual General Meeting.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 25 February 1997 and registered as a charity on 18 March 1997. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
Members of the board of trustees, who are directors for the purpose of company law and trustees for the purpose of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report, are set out below. The trustees are appointed by the members at the Annual General Meeting or otherwise appointed by the trustees where there is a vacancy. One third of the trustees retire at each Annual General Meeting by rotation. If willing to act, they can be reappointed.
Prior to each Annual General Meeting, member organisations are encouraged to nominate individuals for appointment. The Board may also appoint a person willing to act as a trustee to either fill a vacancy or as an additional trustee.
The board meets bi-monthly. A full time chief executive, appointed by the trustees, manages the day to day operations of the charity.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Induction and training of new trustees
New trustees receive a comprehensive induction pack and have the benefit of an induction session to brief them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of which includes the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision making process and business plan. Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role and a training session feedback form has been devised so that information gathered at events can be passed on to all trustees.
Risk management
The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charitable company is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks and enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen those risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charitable company. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the charitable company.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CYMDEITHAS MUDIADAU GWIRFODDOL CEREDIGION/CEREDIGION ASSOCIATION OF VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of CAVO ('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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
1. 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 financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
Income
Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached the the item (s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Where income has related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the income and related expenditure are reported gross in the Statement of Financial activities.
Donations and grants are recognised when receivable. In the event that a donation is subject to fulfilling performance conditions before the Charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until i t is probable that the that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Interest on deposits held is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity which is normally upon notification of the interest paid or by the bank.
Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs 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 the resources.
Support costs are made up of administration and management, finance costs and governance costs. Governance costs are those costs incurred in connection with the compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity.
Grants paid are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once approved for payment.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Allocation and apportionment of costs
The cost of overall direction and administration on each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned to the activity on the basis of staff time or income as relevant.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided to write off the cost less estimated residual value of tangible fixed assets by equal instalments over their estimated useful economic lives as follows:
Freehold property - 1% on cost - Fixtures and fittings 20% straight line Computer equipment - 100% on cost
All fixed assets are held for continuing use in the charity's activities and are recorded at cost at the time of acquisition. Impairment reviews are carried out where necessary. The property was revalued in 2015 from £275,709 to £370,000.
Taxation
The company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Fund accounting
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs.
Designated funds are funds earmarked by the trustees for a particular purposes. They are not restricted and make up the unrestricted reserves.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined benefit scheme for its eligible employees as part of the Dyfed Local Authority Pension Fund. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the charity. Pension costs are assessed in accordance with actuarial advice and based on the most recent actuarial valuation of the scheme, which was last carried out on 31 March 2025. These costs are accounted for on the basis of charging the cost of providing pensions over the period during which the charity benefits from employees services. The scheme was closed to new employees in the year to 31 March 2017.
The pension cost for the year ending 31 March 2025 is based on the result of the actuarial valuation of the scheme as at 31 March 2025 using the assumptions as per note 15.
The contributions made in respect of the accounting period to 31 March 2025 amounted to £46,093 (25.05% of the gross pay of eligible member employees), (2024 £43,494). The agreed contributions until the next actuarial review of the scheme as at 31 March 2026 will be 23% per annum. In addition lump sum payments are being made annually to be applied to the past service deficit. These payments are as follows:
2017-2018 : £13,900 2018-2019 : £11,200 2019-2020 : £11,600 2020-2021: £12,000 2021-2022 £ 8,000 2022-2023 £6,200 2023-2024 £nil 2024-2025 £nil
An analysis of the fair value of the assets of the scheme, movement in the scheme and rate of return is disclosed in note 16. The pension scheme deficit is recognised in full on the balance sheet in accordance with FRS102.
In addition the charity has opened a defined contribution scheme for new employees, with Nest. Contributions made in the year amounted to £3,897 (2024 £2,815).
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due. Accrued income is included at best estimate of the amounts receivable at the balance sheet date.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and demand deposits that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk to changes in value.
Creditors
Creditors 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 are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Financial instruments
The Charity 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.
Going concern
The trustees have considered the financial performance of the Charity for the foreseeable future, in particular, the next 12 to 18 months and are confident that the Charity is a going concern.

PURPOSE OF RESTRICTED FUNDS
Property Fund
This fund relates to the purchase of office premises for the charity in 2001, which was funded by the National Lottery Community Fund with a grant of £284,414. This fund is retained as a restricted fund under the terms of the grant, which state that the building cannot be sold for 80 years from the date of the grant. In the opinion of the trustees, it is reasonable to set this fund against the pension liability for the purpose of calculating free reserves, as in the very remote likelihood of the pension liability crystallising, it should prove possible to realise the property fund to meet it.
Integrated Care Fund
Administered by the seven regional partnership boards established under the Social Services and Wellbeing (Wales) Act 2014, this fund helps health boards and partners to work together to support:
-
Frail and older people
-
People with a learning disability
-
Children with complex needs due to disability or illness.
The fund helps support older people to maintain their independence and remain at home, avoiding unnecessary admissions to hospital or residential care and delays when someone is due to be discharged from care.
Revaluation Reserve
This reserve represents the increase in the value of the freehold property when it was revalued in 2015 from £275,709 to £370,000.
