Our Vision and Values

Positioning Statement

We give help and hope to women, children and families affected by drug and alcohol problems. We help people find the strength and opportunities to make choices that lead to change. Not just for themselves, but for their families, their friends and their communities. For all of us.

By supporting some of the most vulnerable adults and children we are addressing profound inequalities.

Core Truths

Our Core Truths underpin all that we do.

Anybody can develop a problem with drink or drugs whatever their background or situation.

It is harder for women to escape drug and alcohol problems they need specialist help
Drug and alcohol problems just affect the individual but everyone around them
Drink and drug problems just the cause of a difficult life, a symptom of one
A bad start in have to mean a bad end
not here to anyone here to help women make choices that lead to change.
We know that one size fit all we look at the individual

Values

Our values have been established staff, management, volunteers, Trustees and service users:

Equality: We are a champion for equality, providing a non-judgmental service which respects the needs of its clients in all their diversity and recognises that one size does not fit all.

Accountability: We do what we say we are going to do and work with integrity, never losing sight of our responsibility for our actions.

Caring: We deliver all our services with respect for individuals and our day-to-day interactions are characterised by compassion and kindness.

Creativity: We use our unique insight and experience to problem solve, recognising the value of innovation when working with individuals and families.

Collaboration: We work together with our clients, their families, friends and networks and our professional partners to provide the best care possible, to keep people safe and to bring about positive change.

Learning: We continue to develop and evolve our services to better meet the needs of our clients, facilitating involvement and feedback at every opportunity.

Community: We remain a local, specialist organisation rooted in the communities we serve across Brighton & Hove and East Sussex.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

How our activities benefit the public

In accordance with the Charities Act 2006, Oasis Project Trustees confirm the activities it undertakes to achieve its objectives are all carried out for the public benefit as described by the Charity Commission. The Trustees have described in this report s and objectives and confirm they comply with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Nationally, harmful alcohol and drug use creates significant problems for individuals, families and communities. Locally, Brighton & Hove has some of the highest rates of harmful substance use, and drug related deaths in the UK. Alongside the positive outcomes for individuals, treatment for problematic substance use has been proven to create economic and social value and addresses some profound structural and social inequalities.

Oasis Project supports some of the most vulnerable adults and children in Brighton & Hove and East Sussex. Some of the adults and families we work live in poverty, experience high levels of violence and abuse, and experience inequalities across a range of health and wellbeing indices. Our interventions aim to support people to make positive choices that affect their health and wellbeing.

We remain one of the only gender specific services in the UK.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Achievements and performance

Oasis Project supports women, children, young people and families affected by drug and alcohol issues in Brighton & Hove and East Sussex. Our work is underpinned by gender specific approaches, is trauma-informed and has at its core a drive to address inequality and social justice. Our services include:

Structured treatment and recovery services for self-identifying women with problematic drug and alcohol use
Structured treatment and recovery programme for parents and carers (all genders) with problematic drug and
Structured treatment and recovery service for young people transitioning from BHCC children and adolescent drug and alcohol services to adult treatment and recovery services*
Therapeutic services for young people affected by affected by substance use and early trauma
Therapeutic services for children and young people affected by affected by substance use within the family
Support for women whose children have been permanently removed from their care
Support for women who are sex workers
A creche and early years support for children of parents accessing Oasis Project and partner services
Parenting support programmes for parents and carers in treatment and recovery*
Support for parents to understand and make positive change to address the harmful impact of parental drug and alcohol use on their children* (East Sussex only)

*Whilst Oasis Project retains its core focus on the needs of women and will continue to deliver a gender-specific service model, we recognise that men have a significant role to play in the safe care and wellbeing of children and that programmes should address this need. Supporting men to undertake the parenting role is a key issue to undertake in addressing gender equality.

Operational Complexities of Drug and Alcohol Services

Providing drug and alcohol services is increasingly challenging due to the ever-changing landscape of substances and associated risks. Each year we witness a rise in the use of new and highly potent drugs, such as ketamine, methamphetamine, fentanyl, synthetic opiates, and so-called chem-sex drugs. These substances are highly dangerous and have led to spikes in drug-related deaths.

Many of the individual women we support have experienced early trauma and subsequently often have chaotic lifestyles which feature complex and compounding needs including co-occurring mental health issues, domestic abuse, homelessness and roceedings. The stark impact on families is evidence by the high proportion of children accessing our services and the bravery, commitment and determination they show us in their recovery journey every day.

Adult Services Brighton & Hove

Commissioned by Brighton & Hove City Council through a sub-contract with Change, Grow, Live (CGL), we deliver drug and alcohol treatment and recovery services to women over 18. This includes open access assessment, psychosocial one-toone keywork, care coordination, and group interventions.

566 women engaged with the service over the year.

Hope Service

Specialist support for young women and men aged 18 ~~2~~ 5 transitioning from adolescent drug and alcohol services to adult pathways. The service is young-person centred, holistic, and tailored to encourage positive change.

POCAR (Parenting Our Children, Accessing Recovery)

Intensive 16-week programme for parents and carers (all genders) whose children are open to Social Services, focusing on understanding and addressing the impact of parental substance use.
77 clients (male and female) participated in POCAR.

Investors in People

Oasis Project is proud to hold Investors in People accreditation, which we have maintained continuously for nine years. This recognition reflects our commitment to valuing, developing, and supporting our staff team. Through regular training, supervision, and opportunities for professional growth, we strive to create a positive and empowering workplace culture. Our Investors in People status demonstrates to funders, partners, and service users that we are dedicated to high standards in people management and organisational development.

Trauma-Informed Approach and Quality Mark

Oasis Project is dedicated to providing trauma-informed support, ensuring that our services are shaped by an understanding of the impact of trauma on individuals and families affected by drug and alcohol issues. Our staff are trained to deliver compassionate, person-centred care that prioritises safety, trust, and empowerment. This ethos is embedded throughout our organisation, from policies and procedures to everyday practice.

In recognition of our commitment to trauma-informed care, in 2022 Oasis Project was awarded the Quality Mark Silver, reflecting our high standards and ongoing efforts to improve outcomes for those we support.

Environment

Oasis Project is committed to sustainability and is concerned with the impact of our activities on the environment. We recognise that conscientious efforts to conserve resources and reduce environmental impacts have economic benefits for Oasis Project as well as ecological benefits for the environment. We acknowledge the connection between climate and other environmental crises and the threat of current and potential future homelessness, disease, biodiversity, food and water shortages and poverty for millions of people around the world. We therefore take seriously our responsibility to reduce our own carbon and environmental footprint. We have in place an environmental policy and partnerships with providers such as Fare Share and Recorra (PaperRound) to support our front and back-office function sustainability. This work is continuously evolving.

Strategic review

The past year has been one of significant development and reflection for Oasis Project, set against a complex and evolving national and local landscape for drug and alcohol services.

With the support of an external strategy consultant, we undertook a comprehensive strategic planning process involving trustees, senior staff, and key stakeholders. This included face-to-face planning sessions, a consultation survey for staff and external partners, an all-staff away day, and a series of senior management meetings.

As a result, we have established three strategic ambitions for 202 ~~4 2~~ 027:

Women receive trauma-informed substance use treatment and mental health care from services that work together.
Children and young people affected by substance use in the family have access to the support they need, when they need it.
The Oasis Project model is evaluated, consolidated, and communicated.

These ambitions are underpinned by an overarching theory of change and a set of strategic enablers, ensuring our commitment to a strong organisational infrastructure and increased sustainability. This development work is ongoing and central to our future direction.

Strategic Context

Oasis Project operates within a robust legal and regulatory framework, including oversight from the Charity Commission, CQC, Ofsted, and Investors in People.

Justice, and the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) agenda.

We are active members of national networks such as Collective Voice and the Women in Treatment (WiT) Working Group, and we contribute to Communities of Practice and professional forums.

Locally, we are firmly committed to partnership working with statutory, commercial and VCSE partners. This includes active membership of the Brighton & Hove Drug and Alcohol Harm Reduction Partnership (formerly the Combatting Drugs Partnership), VAWG Oversight Board, Safeguarding Adults Board, Local Safeguarding Children Partnership, and other multiagency groups focused on health, well-being, housing, and community safety.

Our key strategic and operational partnerships include Brighton & Hove City Council, East Sussex County Council, NHS, Sussex Police and Crime Commission, Ministry of Justice, Change Grow Live, Common Ambition, Cascade, Brighton rt, Brighton & Hove Switchboard, Rise, Survivors Network, local school, universities and many more. We continue to explore our potential role within Integrated Care Teams and Neighbourhood Mental Health Teams, ensuring our services are embedded in the wider system of care and support.

Alignment with National and Local Priorities

Our services are directly mapped to the priorities of the Brighton & Hove Drug & Alcohol Strategy 202 ~~4 2~~ 030:

Disrupting supply chains and reducing crime

Delivering world-class treatment and recovery

Achieving a generational shift in demand for drugs and alcohol

We are engaged in work focused on improving quality, capacity, and outcomes for drug and alcohol services, and on supporting a generational shift in attitudes and behaviours. Our approach is evidence-based, co-produced, trauma-informed, and antistigmatising, with a strong focus on reducing inequalities.

Impact and Value

deliver significant cost benefits to the wider system. This includes reductions in offending, emergency NHS use, homelessness, domestic abuse, self-harm, suicide, and the need for children to enter care. For example, preventing a single case of homelessness can save £10,000 per year, and preventing the removal of a child into care can save between £50,000 and £90,000. Specialist interventions for young people are proven to deliver substantial health, social, and economic benefits, with every £1 invested yielding up to £8 in return.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Service Model and Innovation

Our unique trauma-informed, gender-informed, and lived experience-led approach is nationally recognised. We are proud to offer long-term, flexible support for highly vulnerable groups, and to contribute to systems change through professional advice, consultation, and advocacy.

Service User Involvement and Workforce

Co-production and lived experience are at the heart of Oasis Project. We facilitate peer support groups, co-production groups, and regular service user feedback, with lived experience represented on our Board and throughout our staff team. Our workforce is highly skilled and professionally qualified, supported by a comprehensive learning and development plan, reflective practice, and a strong focus on staff wellbeing and resilience.

Challenges and Forward Focus

As we look to the year ahead, we continue to face challenges common across the sector: short-term funding cycles, increasing complexity of need, and the necessity for highly skilled staff. The funding landscape remains uncertain, with statutory and public funding under pressure. Despite these challenges, we are committed to building capacity, strengthening quality assurance, and enhancing communication and engagement with all stakeholders.

Looking ahead, Oasis Project is entering an exciting new chapter under new leadership. To achieve our strategic commitments our priorities include:

Continued development of Governance aligned to the Charity Governance Code

Ongoing strategic and efficient use of all of our resources
Deepening partnership working and system integration
Sharing staff and lived experience as part of our investment in Board and workforce learning, development and wellbeing
Enhancing our evidence base and data systems, including exploring innovation and AI
Maintaining a relentless focus on quality, capacity, and impact
Ensuring the voices of children, young people, and adults with lived experience continue to shape our services and strategy

Move some of our services and functions to new premises at the heart of the VCSE community

We remain strategically aligned with local and national priorities and are determined to build on our track record of success, delivering high-quality, evidence-based support for women, children, young people, and families affected by drug and alcohol issues.

Financial review

The financial position of the organisation continues to be a primary focus for the Board of Trustees which places strong

To support this, the Board sets an annual net fundraising target and monitors progress closely to ensure that income generation aligns with operational needs and long-term objectives.

Establishing a clear target provides direction for fundraising activities, supports accurate financial planning, and enables the Board to take timely action if performance falls short.

To achieve this, the Finance and Fundraising Subgroup meets every two months to review financial performance, monitor income and expenditure, and provide rigorous oversight of fundraising activities.

Financial Health

The charity remains financially stable, supported by a strong cash position combined with positive net current and net asset balances.

At the end of the financial year, cash in hand and at bank totalled £531,363. The majority of these funds are held in highinterest accounts, generating £21,320 over the year. Approximately 5% of the cash balance is restricted, and 15% relates to grants received covering periods beyond 2024/25. This means 80% of the cash balance is available for unrestricted use

Income & Expenditure

Total income for the year was £1,544,207 (2024: £1,515,237), while total expenditure was £1,574,304 (2024: £1,473,379). This resulted in a net deficit of £30,097 compared to a surplus of £41,858 in the prior year.

Income

Income was primarily from charitable activities (£1,493,625) and donations (£27,820), with investment income contributing £21,320.

Principal sources of income

The unrestricted income was primarily from core grants and contracts including, the Ministry of Justice (£147,415), and the Henry Smith Charity (£51,400), alongside investment income (£21,320).

Restricted income was received from a range of statutory and charitable funders, specifically; Change Grow Live (£434,370), Brighton & Hove City Council via the OHID Contract (£406,598), National Lottery (£98,465), Ministry of Justice (£147,415), East Sussex County Council Project ADDER Sex Worker Service (£41,580), East Sussex County Council Project ADDER Recovery Initiatives (£25,000), and the Bloom Foundation (£30,000). Each of these grants supported specific projects and services in line with funder requirements.

Performance related grants

Performance-related income sources included central government, local authorities and trusts and foundations. Collectively, central government and local authority contributions represent most of our performance related income, accounting for 83% of the total. The CGL sub-contract contributes 26% of central and local authority income and accounts for 29% of overall income. Funding from trusts and foundations accounts for 17% of overall income.

We are grateful to our funders, partners, and supporters whose generosity enables us to deliver life-changing services. We welcome new partnerships and opportunities to work together for greater impact.

Expenditure:

Total expenditure increased to £1,574,304 from £1,473,379 in 2023-24. This represents an increase of 7%.

Staff costs remain the largest component and account for 77% of expenditure. All other cost categories are below 10% of total expenditure.

Throughout the year, resources were directed towards delivering charitable activities, including relatively modest spending on fundraising. This was because there was no fundraising activity during the first half of the financial year due to staff changes

Support cost increased by 36% in 2024/25 and comprised 26% of total expenditure compared to 21% in 2023/24. These higher-than-usual costs were due to in-year costs associated with interim leadership, alongside essential leasehold improvements, a service evaluation. Increases in national insurance contributions and cost-of-living pay increases were also a factor.

Reserves Policy

Unrestricted General Reserves stand at £330,027, representing a decrease of £9,162 compared to the previous year.

The Board of Trustees has also designated £40,000 for investment in business development initiatives, which will be utilised during 2025/26 to strengthen sustainability.

Restricted Funds decreased by £10,935, closing at £25,863 at year end. Earlier, previously reported delays in recruitment for the National Lottery-funded Family Recovery Service, postponed the planned start of project delivery. As a result, part of the underspend rolled over from previous years was utilised to ensure the project could be delivered as originally intended, in line with the funder agreement.

The charity relies on a diverse mix of income sources, including contracts, grants, and donations, to maintain financial stability. These income streams can fluctuate throughout the year as service funding ends and new opportunities are secured. To safeguard continuity during such periods, financial reserves are essential. They ensure that core facilities, management, and support for charitable services can be maintained while new funding is sought, and they provide a safety net for meeting statutory and contractual obligations in the event of significant funding disruption.

The Trustees have agreed to maintain a designated level of financial reserves, built up from unrestricted income, to safeguard

Continuity of Operations: To ensure that central facilities, management, and support functions can continue for a period of six months in the event of a complete loss of current funding. This provision allows core charity services to operate while new funding sources are secured.
Orderly Closure: In the unlikely event of closure, reserves will enable the Trustees to meet all statutory and contractual obligations to staff and suppliers, ensuring an orderly and responsible wind-down of operations.

The reserve calculation is reviewed annually in March, prior to the financial year end. For 2025/26, the Reserves Policy was reviewed in December to account for the planned financial savings associated with replacement of the lease at Morley Street to the licence agreement at Community Base. The assessment indicated that General Reserves of £322k and £352k are required to meet the Reserves Policy. At year end, actual reserves stood at £330k, which falls within the target range. The Trustees are satisfied with this position and will continue to monitor reserve levels to ensure compliance with policy and maintain financial resilience.

Structure, governance and management Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees sets the strategic direction and oversees the performance of Oasis Project, meeting regularly both online and in person. Day-to-day management is delegated to the CEO, with Board sub-groups focused on Finance and Fundraising, Human Resources and Health & Safety, and Risk Management & Quality Assurance. Governance and Board development are aligned with the Charity Governance Code.

Trustees are recruited through open processes to ensure a diverse and skilled Board. In 2025, Sara Connolly and Emma Cody joined, bringing expertise in safeguarding and work with children and young people. Later in the year, Karen Bailey (academic research), Rakeem Morgan-Cornibert (data analysis), and Catherine Ashton-Saltwell (governance, strategy, and innovation) were appointed. The Board also benefits from members with lived experience of drug and alcohol issues within the family.

Trustee induction and training are overseen by the joint Chairs, with all trustees required to complete safeguarding training. Sara Connolly and Emma Cody currently have oversight of safeguarding on behalf of the Board.

Potential trustees meet with both the CEO and the Chair and are provided with information about the role and responsibilities of a trustee. Alongside information about their role and about the organisation, potential and newly recruited trustees are given information from the Charity Commission and other external sources. Oasis requires all trustees to undertake Safeguarding training. Trustees receive ongoing support in their role. Trustees are asked to develop a specific area of interest. During the year Ms C Bulling and Dr T Morrison acted as Trustee Leads for Safeguarding, and the Board has recruited the two new Trustees with safeguarding expertise to share the lead role from 2024/25.

OASIS PROJECT LTD

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Trustees are generally recruited via open recruitment processes and we are mindful of the need to ensure the board reflects the diversity of the community it serves. Trustees are identified as suitable with reference to analysis of the skills of the current board.

We have a robust board of trustees who bring an excellent range of skills and commitment to Oasis Project, including those with lived experience of substance misuse in the family. There is very good attendance at board meetings and subgroups and a commitment to drive the organisation forward.

Organisational Structure

The Board delegates day to day operational and strategic leadership to the CEO, who oversees the Senior Leadership Team. Service Managers oversee the operational, team and project management of each service area. The structure also includes HR, Finance and Administration roles.

At the year-end Oasis Project employed 53 people (32.5 FTE) in a mix of full and part-time roles. During the period there were 18 new starters and 22 leavers.

Oasis Project holds Investors in People status and has done so continuously for 9 years. HR matters and data are regularly reviewed at Board level via the HR and Health and Safety sub-group.

Our People

The majority of staff team are female, part-time and include people with lived experience of treatment and recovery for alcohol and drug use. The team also includes colleagues from a range of professional disciplines including social work, childcare, counselling, and psychotherapy.

Oasis Project offers practice placements for students from both local Universities. This year we provided internships for three Psychology students from University of Sussex for the sixth year running.

As part of our commitment to staff wellbeing and practice development, regular management support, supervision, facilitated reflective practice and external (clinical) supervision are offered for client facing roles and some senior roles.

A range of mechanisms such as surveys, meetings, forums, are in place for staff to contribute feedback and ideas to discuss and inform organisational development and service delivery.

Leadership

Interim CEO arrangements were in place during the year to cover Laura Ward’s maternity leave which began in December 2023. The role was covered first by Natalie Mendez and then by Catherine Ashton-Saltwell. We are grateful to Natalie and Catherine for their contributions.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

We are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and empowering environment for each individual accessing our services. We recognise and celebrate the diversity of our community, including people of all ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, faiths, disabilities, and socio-economic backgrounds. We are proud to support trans women and affirm their rightful place at Oasis Project.

Our approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, ensuring that every individual feels safe, heard, and valued. We understand that women’s unique experiences of addiction and recovery are shaped by intersecting identities and systemic inequalities, and we strive to respond with sensitivity and equity to the needs of individuals and their families. We actively work to remove barriers to access and challenge discrimination in all its forms.

Through ongoing staff training, community engagement, and inclusive policy development, we uphold the principles of equity and social justice. We believe that recovery is strengthened by diversity and that every woman deserves compassionate support tailored to her unique experience.

Senior Staff Remuneration

Oasis does not have an automatic annual pay increase but operates a salary banding scale. Salary bands are reviewed by senior management and the Board as part of the annual budget cycle. This year in light of the continued rising cost of living and more or less in line with wage increases elsewhere in the economy, awarded a 5% increase to staff. Oasis Project is a Brighton & Hove Living Wage employer.

Disclosure of information to auditor

Each of the trustees has confirmed that there is no information of which they are aware which is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditor is aware of such information.

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

OASIS PROJECT LTD

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The trustees, who are also the directors of Oasis Project for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and

United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.

In preparing these accounts, the trustees are required to:

Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice
(SORP), "Accounting and Reporting by Charities", issued in March 2005;
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
Prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF OASIS PROJECT LTD

Opinion

the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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:

give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
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 (UK) (ISAs (UK)) 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 accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit ibilities 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, 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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 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 course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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 requires 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
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF OASIS PROJECT LTD

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose 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 rs 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 2011 and report in accordance with 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 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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit are to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding compliance with laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, to perform audit procedures to help identify instances of non-compliance with other laws and regulations that may have a material effect on the financial statements, and to respond appropriately to identified or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations identified during the audit.

In relation to fraud, the objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud, to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatements due to fraud through designing and implementing appropriate responses and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit.

However it is the primary responsibility of management, with the oversight of those charged with governance, to ensure that the operations are conducted in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations and for the prevention and detection of fraud.

In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the audit engagement team made enquiries of management, and those charged with governance, regarding the procedures relating to identifying, evaluating and complying with;

laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;
the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations;

As a result of these procedures we consider the most significant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements are FRS 102, General Data Protection Regulations, Companies Act, Charities Act 2011, Charities Statement of Recommended Practice and employment law and regulations. We performed audit procedures to detect non-compliance, which may have a material impact on the financial statements. These included reviewing financial statement disclosures and evaluating advice received from external advisors. There were no significant laws and regulations we deemed as having an indirect impact on the financial statements.

page 17

OASIS PROJECT LTD

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF OASIS PROJECT LTD

The audit engagement team identified the risk of management override of controls as the area where the financial statements were most susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to testing manual journal entries and other adjustments and evaluating the rationale in relation to any significant, unusual transactions and transactions entered into outside of the normal course of business.

As a large portion of income is received through grants and relates to future years, the audit engagement team have highlighted completeness of income as an area of significant risk. Audit procedures performed included but were not limited to, proof in total testing of income recorded in the accounts compared to the grant awarded per the grant contract.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/ auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Rep orts) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’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 charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Oasis Project Ltd is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Globe House, 3 Morley Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 9RA.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's memorandum & articles of association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income, the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy and there is probability over the receipt of the income. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Grants and donations are recognised on an accruals basis, accounted for in the period to which they relate.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on the following appropriate basis:

Brighton Office Cost Allocation: Adult Services 72% Crèche 9% Young Person Services 19%

Central Support Services Allocation: Adult Services 65% Crèche 7% Looking Forward 7% Young person Services 21%

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. These are included within support costs.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold land and buildings 20% of reducing balance Fixtures and fittings Between 20% - 50% on straight line basis Computers 100% straight line where the asset is funded through a grant

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

Oasis Project has a capitalisation policy of £1,000. Assets purchased costing less than this amount are not capitalised.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charitable company only has financial assets and 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.
