A Review of our Achievements and Performance
Activities Del ivered for the Benef it of the Public
Applying a human-relational approach, in an inclusive, safe settin& we deliver a broad offer
of training, skills building, volunteerin& into-work one-to-one support, a well-being
programme, as well as health, housing & financial support. We work hard to build a
community, where everyone can contribute, feel valued and know thatthey matter.
Reaching out to the wider community, we take a leading role in systems change and
campaigningto remove the barriers and challenges faced bythose marginalised by poverty in
society, with a particular focus on the citizens of Greater Manchester. We carry out
coproduced reviews of our objectives and activities both quarterly and annually. These
reviews look at what we have achieved in the previous 12 months; the success of each key
activity and the benefits they have brought to the people we are set up to support.
To ensure we remain focused on the stated purposes of the organisation, we carry out
several stages of review, ensuring the people accessing the service are central to the process,
5UPPOrted by input from the staff team. Thi5 feedback is then presented to the Senior
Leadership Team, followed by the Board of Trustees (Management Committee). We also
invite external input from partners and stakeholders to help us build the fullest picture of the
work we do and to inform us where we need to grow and adaptto the changing needs of the
environment. This in turn is shared in our Annual Impact Report.
We have followed the Charity Commi55ion guidance on public benefit when reviewing our
objectives and in planning our future activities. As part of their governance function, our
Management Committee considers the effectiveness of our objectives and activities and the
positive impact they have on the people we sUPPOrt.
Community Café
Our Community Café is a welcoming place to be, to thrive & connect with others. It provides
a relaxed social eating environment, which goe5 a long way to combating loneliness, allowing
friendships and memorie5 to be made. Poor nutrition is a common factor of poverty.
Following a 3-of-your-5-a-day menu, our quality, nutritious meals ensure all food groups are
covered, improvingthe physical and mental health of our community. The Community Café is
a space run by the Centre Volunteer team. It is a space which prides itself on being inclusive,
welcoming and diverse.The space is managed as a proper café, where people are welcomed
in and given a table. From there, the volunteerteam provide5 table service and welcomes
new faces to the Centre. The Centre Volunteer team introduces people to members of the

THE BOOTH CENTRE
staff team as enquiries are made, but their focus is to provide a customer focused Café
experience.
Inclusive Volunteering Programme & Coproduction
The Centre Volunteer programme at the Booth Centre is inclusive and diverse. We celebrate
our inclu5iVity and offer a role to anyone who wishes to get involved. The bespoke roles
offered in the programme promotes a strengths-based environment, supported by a
coaching approach. The programme specialises in coproduction- the volunteers help us to
design and run the service daily. Volunteers deliver our Breakfast Café and Lunch Service and
are key in the production of our meals in our training kitchen. Feedback and ideas are
regularly collated for us to constantly evaluate the service we offer, ensuring it is what the
community wants. We regularly provide a space for a variety of organisations to hold
meeting5. People who come to the Centre are involved in these meetings and contribute
directly towards strategic change. We also hold sessions with people who come to the Centre
to either discuss and evaluate the service we offer orto share ideas and plan projects. The
staff team and people at the Centre are key partners in a range of action groups, including
those of the Manchester Homelessness Partnership, regularly contributing within meetings,
with the Booth Centre regarded as a place of best practice for coproduction and service
delivery.
Activities
Our Activities Programme is at the heart of the Booth Centre, it helps break down barriers,
build new skills and confidence to recognise talents and interests, leading to improved
wellbeing. The entire programme provides opportunities for people to create posltive
relationships and build a support network which can help them to make positive choices in
their lives and reach out for help to tackle issues and prevent the revolving door of
homelessness.
We understand that everyone's personal circumstances, interests and goals are different, so
we provide a range of opportunities to reach all our visitors. Arts activities at the Booth
Centre helps people to discover and develop their creativity. From Mosaic to Acting for Fun,
the arts activities celebrate creativity and provides a space for people to find calm, have an
opportunity to express themselves and be part of a positive, diverse and inclusive group.
People's creativity is showcased to the public through exhibitions and performances, enabling
us as a community to challenge misconceptions of homelessness and disadvantage. We value
the positive impact which the arts can have on a person. People from the Booth Centre

THE BOOTH CENTRE
community have exhibited in artgalleries across Manchester, performed at the Royal Opera
House and the Royal Exchange.
Wellbeing activities provide opportunities to build positive relationships, work as part of a
team and introduce healthy routines. The programme include5 Sports-based sessions such as
a Walking Group and Fitness Session5, such as Yoga, as well as Philosophy, Cultural Visits and
Gardening. Our large, beautiful garden provides a calm oasis in the heart of the city for many
people who would otherwise have no access to a green space. The RHS Britain in Bloom
judges awarded u5 the Gold Outstanding Award again this year- a tribute to the work of our
volunteers.
Partnerships
Collaboration with our many partners is essential to meet our charitable objectives. This is a
core driver as we plan, design, and deliver services, with coproduction providing the
foundations. We work closely with partners across the voluntary and statutory sector,
businesses, and faith-based groups to ensure we remain strategically relevant to achieve
better outcomes and system change for people living in poverty. These partnerships are well-
established locally, regionally, and nationally.

Financial review
The Trustees prepare and plan financial forecasts for the following two years to ensure
adequate funding is available to achieve the aims of the organisation. Ourtotal income for
the year end 31st March 2025 was £1,287,43912024: £945,396).
Total expenditure amounted to £1,097,55712024.. £1044,6631.
Our total unrestricted reserves on 31st March 2025 stand at £267,163 which equates to 2.9
months of total running costs in 2024-25.
Investment Powers and Policy
Our Reserves policy sets out the parameters for any investment powers. These have never
been initiated and its unlikely they will. We Review our Reserves Policy and re adopt it at
each Annual General Meeting. We invest considerable time working with trustees to ensure
the policy is central to our financial viability assessments.
Reserves policy and going concern
The balance held unrestricted reserves on 31st March 2025 was £267,163 of which
£266,959 are free reserves, after allowing for funds tied up in tangible fixed assets. The
Trustees consider that the unrestricted funds adequately meet the policy of maintaining
sufficient reserves to arrange an orderly run down of the service if a decision is made to close
the charity.

THE BOOTH CENTRE
Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between the spending and receiving of income and to
cover unplanned emergency repair5 and other expenditure.
The policy of the Trustees is that sufficient of the charity's reserves shall be retained so that,
in the event of a decision to close the Centre, funds are available to meet redundancy costs
and to arrange an orderly run down of the service over a period of a minimum of 2 months.
Risk management
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which is reviewed quarterly by the Finance
Committee with any concerns going to the Strategy, Scrutiny and Risk Committee and
includes a review of the principal risks and uncertainties that the charity mayface.
The esta blishment of policies, systems and proced ures to m itigate fi nancial risk identified and
the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on
the charity should those risks materialise. We manage risk through formal mechanisms,
primarily monthly management accounts, scrutiny from the CEO and Deputy CEO, liaison
with the Finance Committee Chair, and use of the Risk Matrix.
Other Control Measures
Bottom-up budget management and budget development processes.
6-month budget review.
Annual budget stress testing workshop with the Executive and Boar of Trustees.
Internal audit framework of key areas.
Safeguarding reassurance report annually toTrustees
A suite of policies, procedures and protocols with a review framework to ensure compliance.
Plans for Future Periods
We recogni5e thatthefinancial environment continues to be challenging for all, including our
statutory partners. We have a refreshed strategy that clearly identifies actions and activities.
We have developed a proportionate review and monitoring framework that includes all key
stakeholders with centre visitors, trustees and employees sitting central in the process.
Through controls on expenditure and focus on income we will continue to deliver on our
Reserves Policy commitment of investing back into reserves over the next 2 years by
generating operating surpluses.

THE BOOTH CENTRE
We will continue to engage and work in close partnership with Manchester City Council
IMCC) and Greater Manchester Combined Authority IGMCA} whilst focusing on developing
other relationships.
Development in 2 Areas:
Early Help
In several ways, we are supporting the development Of Manchesterfs and Greater
Manchester approach to Early Help & Extra Support services and offer. This aligns with our
own strategy as we aim to embed work aimed at preventing homelessness and intervening
earlyto prevent crises. Here we aim to reduce additional trauma for people and reduce
demand on the system by reducing access at more costly periods.
We're continuing to develop our person-centred approach using coaching techniques so
people we work with are more able to navigate systems on their own if appropriate moving
forward. Current key areas of work in this area include delivering on ourThe City Councils
Work & SkiS15 trailblazer programme (251261 and Extra Help & Advice contract125/271.
Immigration Support
We continue to develop our skills and approach in this area. People going through all aspects
of the complex immigration environment visit the centre for support. Through our Greater
Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) funded Restricted Eligibility Programme we are
able to provide specialist support. This has resulted in quite significant outcomes and
reduced destitution.
We aim to continue developing our expertise and partnerships in this area.

The Booth Centre
Independent auditor's report to the trustees of The Booth Centre
Opinion
We have audited the finanaal statements of The Booth Centre (the 'charity') for the year ended 31
March 2025, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activity. Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash
Flows 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 lfjngdom Generally Accepted Accounting
PractTce).
In our opinion the finanaal statements-
givea true and fair viewof the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its incoming
reSoU￿eS and application of resources for the year then ended.,
have been properly prepared in accordance wth United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice" and
have been prepared in accordance wth the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. and
The Charities (Accounts & Reports} Regulations 2008 (which have been amended by a number of
Orders since initial release)
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Intemational Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS (UKI) 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
charity in accordan￿ wth 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 evidenTr we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concem
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going cOn￿M
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 charity's ability
to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements
are authorised for issu8.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees wth respect to going concem are
described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other infomiation
The other infomiation comprises the infomiation included in the trustees, report. other than the financial
statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other infomation.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other infonmaton and we do not express
any fonn of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connectyon with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other infomiation
and, in doing so, consider whether the other infomiation is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements or our kno￿edge obtained in the audit or otherwse appears to be materially misstated. If
we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent mateiial misstatements, we are required to
determine ￿ether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a mat8rial
misstatement of Ihe other infonnation. If, based on the work we have perfonrted, we conclude that there
is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

The Booth Centre
Independent auditor's report to the trustees of The Booth Centre
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 followng matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts
and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion::
the infomation given in the trustees, report is inconsistent in any material respect wth the financial
statements" Cf
suffiaent accounting records have not been kept" or
the financial statements are not in agreement wth the accounting records. or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement Iset out on page 51, the trustees are
responsible for the preparation of the financial statement5 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
e￿Or.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing. as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease
operations, or have no realistic altomative but to do so.
Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charites Act 2011 and report in
accordance wth the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
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 auditorfs report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran￿ is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance wth ISAS (UK) wll always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered matertal 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.
Our approach to identifwng and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities,
including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. Wds as follows:
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate
competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-complian￿ wth applicable laws and
regulations.
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charitythrough discussions wth trustees and
other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the charity sector"
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect
on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including the Charites Act 2011, taxation
legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety
legI￿atiOn.,
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making
enquiries of management and inspecting legal CO￿eSpondenceand reviewng trusteemeeting minutes;

14
The Booth Centre
Independent auditor's report to the trustees of The Booth Centre
and
that identified laws and regulations were communicated ￿thin the audit team regularfy and the team
remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the charity's financial statements to material misstatement, including
obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by..
• making enquiries of managemont and those charged with govemance as to where they considered
there was susceptibility to fraud, their knoWedge of actual. suspected and alleged fraud., and
• considering the intemal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and
regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.
tested journal entlles to identify unusual transactions.
tested the authorisation of expenditure as part of our substantlV8 testing thereon;
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in detemiining accounting estimates set were
indicative of potential bias- and
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed
procedures which included, but not limited to..
agreeing financial statement disclosures to undedwng supporting documentation.
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with g0veMan￿.,
• enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and daims., and
• reviewing correspondence with HMRC. relevant regulators including the Care Quality Commission
(CQC), and the charity's legal advisors.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws
and regulations are from financial transactions. the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-
compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with
laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory
and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error
as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is available on the
Financial Reporbng Council's website at- www.frc.org.ukJauditorsresponsibilities. This description foTms
part of our auditor's report.
