-
e placing our relationships with users, partners and policy makers at the heart of our work, including new Learning Partnerships to evidence our work in local authorities
-
e setting up the Emotional Health Alliance with organisations who are committed to increasing awareness of Emotional Health in order to raise the profile of Emotional Health nationally
-
e increasing engagement with trustees collectively and in relation to individual interests and expertise to support our work,
The board and executive have given considerable thought to how we increase awareness and understanding of Emotional Health and the evidence underpinning our practice across families, communities, schools, and workplaces. This reflection led us to change our name to the Centre for Emotional Health and develop our branding to better reflect the increasingly diverse use of our nurturing training. Operationally we have restructured our Operations and Finance Team to better meet demand and the needs of our customers.
In the coming year we will increase our focus on impact and research, on influencing future policy direction through a collaboration with Demos to increase awareness about the importance of Emotional Health at this time of increasing uncertainty and change as well as continuing to deliver high quality training throughout the United Kingdom.
Thank you to my fellow trustees for their commitment and challenge, to Peter Leonard for his leadership and vision, to the Directors and Senior Team for their expertise and collaborative approach and to every member of staff and trainer for their boundless enthusiasm and commitment to building emotional health. The coming year will bring substantial opportunities to build on these achievements as we move to being the Centre for Emotional Health.

Main Activities undertaken to further public benefit
The trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties.
In 2022-23 we developed our new strategic plan for 2023 — 26 and began to work on our new goals which are:

Use this knowledge and these relationships to grow our training and resources sales. Werk with increasing numbers of schools and education settings (through, for example, Alliances and Multi Academy Trusts, as well as partnerships in geographical areas) emphasising depth as well as breadth in our work. Upskill more PGLTs to work across our range of programmes and in education settings, exploring the use of local professionals as practitioners and champions.

Achievements and Performance
After a period of wide consultation with staff, freelance trainers and other stakeholders we agreed our new three-year Strategic Action Plan. This has been enthusiastically implemented by the whole team and it is good to see real results from this focused approach to our work and growth, As a result of this and the increased demand for our training we have also increased the capacity in our operations and finance teams. We also refurbished our offices to make them a creative and collaborative space alongside embedding our flexible hybrid approach.
We have continued to deliver our funded schools work in Oxfordshire as well as spending time considering what our long-term education offer looks like. We have also spent time building our relationships with users, partners and policy makers which has resulted in new Learning Partnerships to evidence our work in local authorities.
A particular success has been establishing The Emotional Health Alliance with organisations who share our interests to raise the profile of Emotional Health nationally and we have of course continued to work closely with our fantastic team of trustees who use their skills and experience to support and develop our work.
Fundraising Activities
Our Director of Funding and External Relations completes grant applications and carries out fundraising activities with support from colleagues and trustees, to raise funds for the charity. While most of our income is generated by sales of trainings and resources, we rely on donations and grants:
-
e@ to enable the running of specific projects;
-
® to cover some of our core costs;
-
® to carry out programme development;
-
© to carry out impact measurement and evaluation; and
-
@ to increase public awareness and understanding of the importance of emotional health.
In the 2022-23 financial year, we were grateful to have received funding from The Tedworth Charitable Trust for our new podcasts and from the AD Charitable Trust, Garfield Weston Foundation, john Armitage Charitable Trust, Peter Cundiil Foundation, The Pease Charitable Trust amongst others.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31* August 2023
Financial review
Financial Position
At the end of the financial year we incurred an overall deficit of £35k (2022: a surplus of £290k). However, this deficit was the result of a £97k restricted loss meaning our unrestricted reserves increased by £62k (2022: £255k). This puts us in a good position to continue to expand our reach, ensuring core costs are covered in spite of rising expenditure levels.
Principal risks and uncertainties
Our principal risks and uncertainties are documented in our risk register, which is maintained by the directors with identified risks reviewed quarterly by the trustees. It includes financial and operational areas of risk, as well as governance, reputational risk and external influences. These risks are regularly reviewed, and systems and procedures to manage them implemented.
Factors that may have an adverse effect on our financial performance going forward and measures we are taking to mitigate include:
-
® the financial straits to be widely faced by our customers with increasing costs and reducing budgets; o We work hard to develop and maintain positive relationships with all of our customers so that we can support them as they manage increasingly challenging budgets. We have also sought to increase our customer base across the UK and are exploring diversifying our training customer base.
-
e the risk of centrally managed authorities favouring programmes with clinically measurable child outcomes over the Nurturing Programme which focusses on adult outcomes and the subsequent impact on the children in their care.
-
©We have continued to work with external consultants to evaluate our work and are exploring ways to increase internal capacity in this area.
-
® increased demand for impact and evaluation, both of our programmes and to support our customers in their evaluation o We have taken on a part time intern and a Charity Next Secondee. We are also exploring ways to increase capacity in this area.
-
*® areduction in funding from Trusts and Foundations as they are impacted by potential decreasing of investments. © We continue to develop and maintain relationships with a wide range of trusts and grant making bodies.
Reserves policy and going concern
We regularly review our reserves policy to take into consideration the long-term impact of necessary investment into programme development and evaluation, and the need for financial security in economically uncertain times. For the past few years our policy has been to keep a level of reserves sufficient to meet our closing costs plus two months’ worth of operating costs as a minimum and aim for unrestricted reserves sufficient to cover closing costs plus six months’ worth of operating costs. We consider this policy still to be appropriate for us. At the end of the 2022-23 financial year, the range of reserves within this policy was £435K to £791K (2021-22 £LI8IK - Z491K). Free reserves at 31° August 2023 were £795,732 (2022 - £737,014) which is sufficient to cover 8 months’ of fixed costs.
Plans for Future Periods
This financial year has been the final one of the 2020-2023 strategic plan. Our new strategic plan for 2023 — 2026 has been phased in during the year and is now fully embedded. All our activities are geared towards achieving the six objectives outlined earlier in this report. We will have a particular emphasis on:
-
e Embedding our new name and branding. e Reviewing and implementing a revised governing document.
-
e Raising awareness of emotional health and its importance to society.
-
® Continuing to increase practitioners trained to deliver our programmes in local authorities, family hubs, education settings, organisations and communities.
-
e Develop new training for a wider range of settings and people.
-6-
- e Developing our internal capacity for impact and research work. ® Carrying out a scoping project for what our education work should look like.

independent auditors’ report to the members of Family Links (Educational Programmes)
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Family Links (Educational Programmes) (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 3 ist August 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Scatement of Cashflows 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:
-
e give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31st August 2023, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
e 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 (UIQ) (SAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial staternents 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 LIK, 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 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 trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report 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. lf 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. 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.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
® the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or
-
e the charitable company has not kept adequate accounting records; or
-
e the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
e we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Independent auditors’ report to members of Family Links (Educational Programmes) (continued)
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 8, 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
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 201] and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
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.
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.
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 specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable ofdetecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: , Enquiry of management, those charged with governance 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;
- . Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias;
Because ofthe inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s trustees 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 trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

| Accounting policies
Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31° August 2023
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial staternents are as follows:
a) Basis of preparation
Family Links is a company limited by guarantee in England and Wales. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 2 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities is noted in the Trustees Report.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. These financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention or transaction value unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.
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.
b) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of incorne and expenditure for {2 months from authorising these financial statements. They have concluded that the budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves held for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
ec) Revenue recognition
Income is included when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Government grants in respect of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme were recognised in the SOFA in the period in which the charity was entitled te such grants as a result of having furloughed staff members.
Income received in advance of training courses being provided is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met (see note 14).

Accounting policies (continued)
d) Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
e) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is either upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank or after calculation of interest due based on terms of the deposit certificate.
f)
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Restricted funds are donations and grants which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work.
g) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is included once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
e Costs of raising funds comprise a proportion of employment costs of staff working on fundraising events and grant applications, and any costs accruing to those activities.
-
e Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred in providing training courses and in supplying support resources, as well as costs incurred in developing new training formats and resources and other programme delivery costs.
-
e Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cast against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
h) Allocation of support costs
Support costs are the functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include operational back-office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs, which support the charity’s activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in notes 8 and 9.
i)
Operating leases
The charity classifies the lease of photocopiers and mobile phones as operating leases; the title to the equipment remains with the lessor, and the equipment is replaced at the end of the lease term. Rental charges are charged on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Accounting policies (continued)
j) Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £250 or more are capitalised at cost, and depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives as follows:
Leasehold improvernents Computer equipment Other office equiprnent
over the life of the lease over three years, straight line over five years, straight line
Website costs are accounted for through the statement of financial activities in the year in which they are incurred, and are not capitalised.
k) Stock
Stock consists of printed books, games, training resources and purchased goods for resale. Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Donated items of stock are included at fair value, which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.
1) Debtors
Trade debtors are recognised at the settlement amount, and prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
m) Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly-liquid investments with a maturity date of less than two months from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
n) Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are included 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.
o) Employee benefits
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The cost of the contributions made to the scheme is charged to the SOFA as it becomes payable. The charity also runs an auto-enrolment pension scheme to comply with statutory requirements. The defined contribution from the charity is paid as the employer’s contribution, whilst the employees’ contributions top this up to keep the total in line with the statutery minimum provision. Employees choosing to opt out of the auto-enralment pension continue to have the employer’s contribution made to their personal pension.
p) Taxation status
The charitable company is a registered charity with no trading activities and therefore has no liability to corporation taxation.

(full time equivalents: 16.8) (2022: 16, FTE: 13.9).
The charity contributes 7% of employees’ basic pay to personal pension schemes chosen by the individual employees. The cost of the contributions made is charged to the SOFA as it becomes payable. The charity set up an autoenrolment pension scheme on the |“June 2016 in line with statutory requirements. The full 7% contribution from the charity is paid as the employer’s contribution, and employees’ contributions are kept in line with the statutory minimum provision, although they may opt to contribute more. Employees choosing to opt out of the auto-enrolment pension continue to have the option of the employer’s contribution made to their personal pension. The total employer contributions for the period are disclosed below. Unpaid contributions at the balance sheet date amounted to £6,647 (2022: £4,345).

Included within the gifting agreement from Fastn was provision to purchase a laptop and workstation peripherals. As these have been provided and are now included in our fixed assets, the restriction is deemed to be met and the equivalent value has been transferred to unrestricted funds.
