## **Chair’s Report 2024-2025** 

My first priority in this years report is to outline the change of Chief Executive Officer.  I’ll start with the outgoing CEO, in July 2024, Kate Glasby stood down as CEO and moved to a new role with the Department of Works and Pensions. Myself and the Board of Trustees thank Kate for her drive and passion in taking OTR forward and leaving the Charity in such a strong position.  Kate was the force behind many successful funding bids and founded a strong team within the organisation.  Kate was succeeded by Corniche Plumridge, an internal candidate, the Family Services Manager, who successfully led the organisation as the interim CEO.  Since taking up her tenure permanently, she has shown the same drive and passion and brought her knowledge and experience in the Sector to continue taking OTR forward. 

I’d like to continue by recognising our funders who enabled us to deliver the services we provide.  Their support has been fundamental in our overall increase in our income by just over 12%, resulting in a surplus of c.£36K  a significant increase from the previous year.  This year, like past years, we’ve been fortunate to continue to receive funding from major trust funders such as the John Pritchard Trust, The Henry Smith Charity, Garfield Weston and the Blagrave Trust, along with the National Lottery Community Fund, Hampshire County Council and East Hants District Council.  We have also benefited from funding from various Local Community Partnerships, other charitable organisations, businesses, clubs and individual donations.  It is without doubt the investment in bringing in a dedicated Fundraising Manager that has contributed to the success of our fundraising, working closely with the CEO and other members of staff to implement income initiatives and secure the level of funding required. 

This report highlights the services we have provided throughout this year and the impact these have made on the wellbeing of young people and their families.  As well as our counselling activities our outreach programmes into schools have been a success with requests for more managing emotions workshops.  Projects such as ‘energise me’ continue to contribute to supporting young carers with activities that help with a healthier lifestyle and our new Young Adult Carers project providing support with vital life skills such as manging finances and CV writing. 

In this next year we anticipate some challenges with fundraising as we come to the end of some of our funding streams and foundations and trusts switch their focus onto other charities/areas.  Our focus will be on ensuring that new streams are founded and extending our fundraising team further will be a priority.  In addition, we will be looking at the possibility of rationalising our services into one location as the availability of the building attached to the main office, The Original Place, becomes open and are actively liaising with the Diocese of Portsmouth about the possibility of taking over its lease. 

I would like to thank all the Team at OTR for their continued contribution to the success of the Charity and the Trustee Board is confident that we have the necessary foundations to strengthen and build a better service our young people in the Borough and beyond. 

The Chair 

## OFF THE RECORD 

## **Supporting young people’s mental health to fulfil their potential for a brighter future.** 

OTR (Off the Record South East Hampshire) is an emotional health and wellbeing charity since 1977, supporting young people and their families in the Havant Borough and it surrounding area. 

Registered Office: 138 Purbrook Way Leigh Park Havant Hampshire PO9 3SU Registered Company Number: 3333729 (England And Wales) Registered Charity 1064275 



Page 3 of 28 

Off The Record’s mission is to help young people to achieve emotional health and wellbeing, through early intervention counselling, groupwork, and a young carers service. 

In the period of transition between CEO’s we extended the 2022-2024 business plan where we continued our commitment to: 

- Youth Voice 

- Protecting the future of community-based counselling 

- Monitoring and protecting equality of access for marginalised communities. 

- Offer a fully blended service model to give choice to young people and their family, whilst protecting in-person services in a digital world. 

- Delivering face to face services from community locations, allowing for equity of access and increased awareness so all young people know we are here for them. 

- Being a placement of choice for student counsellors in training, offering a high standard of support, training and recognition. 

## SERVICES 2024 – 2025 – Offered services this year: 

## **Counselling Delivery** 

We continue to manage our in-person spaces via our main office in Leigh Park and via our outposts, bringing services closer to harder to reach communities. We have outposts in Emsworth, Bordon and on Hayling Island.  We continue to look for free / low cost premises in order for us to have a presence over a wider local area.   Currently for those young people less likely to be able to afford travel, or have parents/carers unable to bring them along, we can still offer our services via other means, telephone or video call.  However, demand continues to clearly demonstrate that the need for face-to-face services continues to grow, with 82% of counselling delivered via this means, an increase of a further 3% from the previous financial year. 

## **Individual Counselling Services** 

Counselling for 11 - 25 year olds (1 Assessment plus a minimum of 6 ongoing sessions) 

Counselling for Parents / Carers to provide counselling to better support their child (1 Assessment plus a maximum 6 ongoing sessions). 

## **Family Counselling Services** 

Family Counselling for families of 8 years plus children (2 Assessments plus 6 ongoing sessions) 

## **Group Work Services** 

All our group work services are delivered in person in our youth work room at Leigh Park Community Centre or as outreach in Havant secondary schools 

- Group Work – Managing Emotions  6 week course or 1 day Courses for 11 - 25 year olds.

- Havant Young Carers Project – Supporting Young Carers ages 8 to 18 through fortnightly support sessions, leisure trips and activities in the school holidays, 121 support when needed, in addition to advocating and raising awareness. 

- Young Adult Carers – a pilot project supporting young adult carers 18 to 25 in transitioning into adulthood. 

## **Information and Support Calls** 

Our Support Volunteers maintain regular contact with individuals on our waiting list, offering weekly, fortnightly, or monthly check-in calls based on each client’s preference. These calls serve to: 

- Confirm continued interest in our services 

- Check for any changes in availability 

- Provide wellbeing support 

- Offer signposting to relevant local agencies and national websites 

Between them, our volunteers delivered **117 hours of support calls** to **661 newly registered clients** . 

These conversations not only help clients feel heard and supported while they wait, but also ensure they are aware of other services that may be able to assist them in the meantime. 

## **Counselling Service** 

## **927 new clients registered for counselling during the year, these included 634 young people, 27 parent / carers and 266 individuals for our family counselling service.** 

**977 engaged with a service, 598 for individual counselling & 379 for family counselling (some preregistered before year started)** 

## **3898 sessions offered, 3417 for individual counselling, 481 for family counselling.** 

A blended team of qualified, and voluntary trainee / qualified counsellors work with our clients.  The qualified counsellors working with individuals aged 11 and up, families from age 8 years, and the trainees working with the 16 and overs.  All counsellors being supervised throughout via our team of clinical supervisors. 

Issues and contextual factors of our young people: Through our clients sharing what their top presenting issues are, we have identified that within the top 5 issues, Anxiety remains at the top, followed by Family & Relationship issues, Low Mood, Low Self Esteem and then Depression.  These top 5 issues represent 59% of all shared presenting issues from young people.  Our young people also share what their contextual factors are, through these we have identified that the top 5 factors that they present with are, Safeguarding issues at the forefront, followed by School Issues, Autism Spectrum condition, ADHD and then bullying.  These top 5 factors represent 59% of all shared contextual factors from young people. 

Family & relationships issues are the second highest presenting issue, we continue to deliver our family counselling service provision alongside our young people and parent / carer offer.  We believe early intervention and longer lasting outcomes for young people can be improved by working systemically with and around the young person, where this is appropriate and welcomed by the young person.

Family counselling can help those in close relationships to better understand and support each other. It can enable those in the family to express and to explore difficult thoughts and emotions safely.  The safe space the family is within can help each member of the family to understand each other’s experiences and opinions, to appreciate each other’s needs, to build on the family strengths and work together on making changes to improve their relationships and their lives. 

## GROUPWORK ACTIVITIES 

## **Managing Emotions** 

- **35 Group Work courses delivered** 

- **2  Group Work day courses delivered** 

- **257 young people completed courses** 

- **311 young people offered group work sessions** 

- **1804 sessions were offered per individual in total and 1169 attended per individual, per session.** 

Group work delivers a managing emotions course for those 11 to 25 years old, which is a 6-week exploration course consisting of anxiety, stress, anger, low mood, relationships and concluding with a self-care session. The benefits of doing this within a group setting is the invaluable input of peers going through similar emotions, which normalises the emotion and decreases thoughts of being isolated in ones thoughts. 

The course is offered as outreach within secondary schools in Havant and in our centre, this ensures we break down any barriers of attending by going into schools and the in centre ensure those who want to attend outside of school or are home educated have an available alternative. 

One of the managing emotions day course was delivered to 18 plus due to feedback we received that it is difficult to commit to a 6 week course due to work or education so a day course was most suited. We delivered our pilot school transition day course, the school transition course has been designed to support young people leaving primary school before starting at their given secondary school, as this was highlighted as a cause for high amount anxiety during our managing emotions sessions. 

The top three presenting issues amongst young people completing group work courses were anxiety, low self esteem and low mood. 

Group work combines using different wellness techniques and methods with youth work principles to be able to deliver courses and tailor as necessary to meet the needs of young people, including young people with special educational needs. Having strong relationships with schools ensures we are up to date with current trends and helps us tailor the session to meet the need, which included a specific course on resilience, 

Feedback gained from young people on completion of their sessions  showed that they felt listened to and understood during their sessions.  They shared they found techniques explained to them during 

Registered Office: 138 Purbrook Way Leigh Park Havant Hampshire PO9 3SU Registered Company Number: 3333729 (England And Wales) Registered Charity 1064275 



Page 6 of 28 

sessions such as grounding and breathing techniques helped them to better to understand and manage their emotions. 

## **You First** 

You First is a parenting programme focused on enhancing parent wellbeing and emotional resilience to support parents to better understand their young person. 

## **6 parents/carers onboarded to the course** 

## **4 parents / carers completing the course.** 

You First has delivered one course this year after listening to feedback and reaction to the needs of our client base, this has resulted in the course being condensed to be delivered in 6 weeks instead of 8 making this more achievable for parents to complete. During this time, we trained further staff to deliver. 

The course was well received by those who attended. Two attendees did not complete the course this is not unusual within groupwork and is due to timing not being right for them physically or emotionally at that time. 

One of the attendees of the course said they had felt overwhelmed prior to the course but after completion said they were feeling more able to deal with the unknown and had taken on board the importance of self-care. 

Another attendee shared that helped them to gain a better understanding of how the brain works and how important everyone’s emotions are and how others have similar problems to them **.** 

## Outcomes inclusive of Counselling and Group work 

GBO are based on the concept that it is more powerful to measure the self-reported impact of an intervention against the service users' own goals, rather than observed improvements or predetermined measures / scoring tools. 

A young person / adult will start a programme of counselling, or a group work course, and set their own goals or family goals that they are looking to work on. 

For example, real goal examples set by our service users are: 

- Reduce the conflict at home and make things better 

- Gain better understanding and communication with each other 

- Have more self-worth 

- To explore and understand my feelings 

- To be happy 

With 1 being furthest away from goal, and 10 being ‘goal met’, young people score themselves every week until counselling / group work ends. We measure the difference in start and end score. 

Our latest report for counselling data response tracked 1751 goals across 1142 service users. Group work tracked 1279 goals across 546 service users.

Page 7 of 28 

In total all service users report a 169% improvement for the whole YTD cumulative scores on their selfreported goals score to score between starting with us and leaving us, this means that the average improvement is individual feeling twice as good at the end of their journey compared to the start. 

## Young Carers 

- **107 Young Carers supported throughout the year** 

- **Support Sessions – 53 sessions took place** 

- **Out of school club & activities – 49 sessions took place** 

- **45 New Referrals** 

- **37 Assessments** 

The Young Carers service continues to support young people aged 8 to 18 and this year we have extended this to include young adult carers up to the age of 25. The project offers an exploration program to ensure that all young carers have the opportunity to explore their caring roles, understand different disabilities, gain resilience skills and get support from their peers to ensure they do not feel alone. The exploration program takes place during our fortnightly, 2 hour support sessions throughout term time, the Young Carers are divided into three different age ranges to ensure age-appropriate support, with each age group having a support club. To ensure we meet the varied needs of the Young Carers, each session has a set exploration activity and at least half the club is dedicated to free time to ensure they have plenty of time for fun away from their caring responsibilities, we ensure that there are enough staff members to allow the young people to have one to one support during the sessions if they or staff identify a need. To inform our sessions and to monitor the Young Carers, we use the Carers Star as an outcome measure. 

To ensure the Young Carers have the same opportunities and childhood experiences as their noncaring peers, alongside the young carers support sessions throughout the year we arrange leisure activities for them to have a break from their caring responsibilities during the school holidays, these include theme parks, theatres and meals out. We also provided a residential by attending the annual Young Carers festival, ensuring that they not only get a substantial break but get to meet other young carers across the England and have their voices heard. 

Over the year the young carers took part in the ‘energise me’ project which aimed at having happier and healthier communities through physical activity and sport, young carers are particularly vulnerable due to their caring needs and the barriers this can lead to for physical health and healthy lifestyles. We developed a program that incorporated the following themes: 

- Energise my confidence – activities that could be done at home 

- Energise my body -Leisure centre based activities 

- Energise My Future - Activities to become healthy habits 

- Energise My Mind - activities that can become hobbies 

Registered Office: 138 Purbrook Way Leigh Park Havant Hampshire PO9 3SU Registered Company Number: 3333729 (England And Wales) Registered Charity 1064275 



Page 8 of 28 

- Energise My Happiness - fun activities 

This was in conjunction with activities throughout half term, including different activity centers, natural spaces. As part of this project, young carers trained and participated in the Junior Great South Run. 

The new Young Adult Carers Project began to meet monthly towards the end of the year extending the age range of young carers that can be supported to age 25. This ensures that Young Carers are supported through their transition into adulthood, a phase of life where often other services end.  The group focuses on building skills such as CV writing, employment focus and managing finances in addition to wellbeing support, caring support and to meet other young adult carers. This group is in its infancy and will continue to grow into the next year. We are strengthening our presence in local colleges which been beneficial in building this service. 

## SAFEGUARDING – ALL SERVICES 

We continue to see a high level of safeguarding across all our services and review these on a daily basis within the safeguarding team, we also hold weekly meetings to review the previous weeks safeguarding.  We are aware that the level of safeguarding that we work with, is in part linked to the overstretched local CAMHS service, with many clients now being signposted to us as the wait for CAMHS is reported to be as long as 2 years. 

During this year we are supporting 398 clients that has safeguarding concerns, they shared a total of 737 concerns, the most prevalent of these, 561 concerns, were for suicidal thoughts, previous suicidal attempts or self-harm.  41 of those reports were sharing concerns around neglect / abuse or exploitation.   If we identify that the young person is at risk of harm then the DSOs will complete a MASH referral or if services are already involved with the young person, then a disclosure to their caseworker would take place.  In situations whereby OTR doesn’t specialise in the presentation that the young person wishes to explore, our team of counsellors and designated safeguarding officers support the young person and their family to access the right service for them at this time, this can entail OTR completing an external referral on behalf of the young person. 

We are proactive in ensuring widespread annual training, investment in online training platforms for year-round access to training and refreshers, and regularly revised safety planning tools and up to date protocols in line with our LCSB obligations.   We have two Designated Safeguarding Officers in post and one Designated Safeguarding Lead; these posts are key to the support and management of these safeguarding concerns.  These positions monitor all clients with safeguarding concerns depending on risk, either weekly or monthly. 

We also continue to invest in separate mandatory online and annual classroom training for all. We continue to strengthen and enhance our organisation wide suicide awareness and prevention training, and safety planning toolkits. 

## FINANCIAL REVIEW 

The results for the financial year and the financial position of Off the Record (South East Hampshire) are shown in the accompanying financial statements. 

Registered Office: 138 Purbrook Way Leigh Park Havant Hampshire PO9 3SU Registered Company Number: 3333729 (England And Wales) Registered Charity 1064275 



Page 9 of 28 

Income received from all sources for the financial year ending 31st March 2025 was £525,774 compared to the prior year of £468,218 (up 12.29%).  We continued to receive funding from Guinness Housing Association and Southampton & IOW NHS towards our Family Counselling service, a joint venture between OTR and Hart Voluntary Action. We also secured another round of funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to contribute towards our service over the next 4 years. 

Operating expenses for the year were £489,693 which represented an increase of 4.91% on the prior year of £466,755.  The increase in expenditure was mainly due to the decision in 2022/23 to employ 2 Groupwork leaders to support our Family Services Manager and a Head of Fundraising, these roles have now impacted our expenditure based on a full financial year. Our increase in salaries is partly driven by being a member of the real living wage foundation, through which we strive to ensure that our salaries remain competitive. Our expenditure on young carers activities increased due to funding through Hampshire County Council as part of the Energize Me program designed to get young people active. Our major expenditures continue to be the employment of a skilled staff team including a dedicated Head of Fundraising, the infrastructure to run a small local charity office such as IT, maintenance, recruitment, training, support and the supervision of counsellors and supporting teams. 

The net income for the financial year ending 31[st] March 2025 was a surplus £36,081 compared to a prior year surplus of £1,463.

We are delighted to have received funding from the George Michael Fund made possible by some of George’s record royalties from sales of Last Christmas’ 

Our membership of two Hampshire wide consortiums, Hampshire Youth Access (66.7k) continues to protect our counselling for 11-17 year olds in the Havant Borough.  Hampshire Young Carers Alliance (24.5k) our ability to deliver young carers services, although this was a 5 year award which came to an end September 2024. 

We have had success with a variety of local engagements receiving funded work from OPCC, Havant Local Communities Partnership, East Hants Local Communities Partnership, New Forest Local Communities Partnership, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Community Fund and gratefully received donations and grants from Dare 2 Express, Kelly Family Charitable Trust, Platinum Care Solutions and Havant Rotary Club. 

The trustees are of the opinion that the organisation has appropriate financial reserves and resources to maintain its business risks successfully and continue its operational existence, despite the continuing cost of living crisis. 

## **STRUCTURE AND GOVERNANCE** 

Off The Record is a Company limited by guarantee (with no share capital). The Memorandum and Articles of Association form the governing document which also determines the re-appointment and resignation of Trustee Directors. The Trustees hold the charity in trust for current and future beneficiaries by: 

Registered Office: 138 Purbrook Way Leigh Park Havant Hampshire PO9 3SU Registered Company Number: 3333729 (England And Wales) Registered Charity 1064275 



Page 10 of 28 

- providing leadership and direction within the ethos and values of the charity 

- being responsible for the effective performance and management of the charity 

- ensuring that the charity complies with all legal and regulatory requirements 

- undertaking ambassadorial roles 

- working as a team 

The Board of Trustees is legally responsible for the strategic direction of the charity including approving the annual plan and budget. The Board monitors risk and progress against these plans and budgets and it makes decisions about the appointment of trustees and senior staff. Lead trustees are appointed to oversee key areas of work as needed. 

## **PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's activities and in planning future activities. All our charitable activities deliver public benefit because they exist to serve the public and ensure that children, young people, their parents, and families as well as professionals working in the field of mental health benefit from our work and services. 

## **RISK ASSESSMENT** 

The trustees continue to review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate systems, controls or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces.  Eight risk areas are routinely reviewed, and an audit kept on the findings. 

1. Governance 5. Financial Management 2. External Environment 6. Fundraising 

3. Service Delivery – clients, funders, 7. Operational - staff, volunteers, partners policy/practice 

4. Compliance – legal, charity regulation, 8. Technology & IT Security ethics 

The aim of the mitigations is to ensure sustainability, good governance and safe work practices and good service management. 

Financial monitoring and review are ongoing, with reports tabled for each board meeting along with a service update from the CEO. All policy and procedures are reviewed every 2 years, or sooner in line with our policy routines. 

## **INVESTMENT POLICY** 

The Board of Trustees have reviewed the financial situation and concluded it is unable to consider longterm investments. All funds are currently dedicated to running and delivering a quality information, support, groupwork and counselling service and meeting the charity reserve policy.

Page 11 of 28
RESERVES POLICY
The reserves policy considers the Charity Commission's guidance on reserves. We have looked at why
we need reserves, how much this should be and that we compare the need regularly with the amount
held. Our current policy is to hold at least reserve of 3 months running costs ideally 6 months, to ensure
well-managed ethical endings or hand-over of support for clients, if a major cut in funding ever occurs.
Reducing or ending support to young people, especially those such as the young carers who have long-
term support with Off the Record, would take time to organise and enact in the way we would wish for
the safety etc., of our clients. The reserves in case of closure would also need to enable redundancy
and other closure costs.

## **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. 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost 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 resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Improvements to property -  10% on cost Computer equipment -  25% on cost 

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustee Directors for particular purposes.  The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

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. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Financial instruments** 

The charity only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties and loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.
