## **Headway** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims** 

The Charity's objects are; 

- to provide services and facilities calculated to rehabilitate and relieve from their disabilities persons 

   - who live with brain injuries and who reside in Leicestershire and Rutland. 

- 

- to assist the families and carers of persons who live with brain injuries 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees have had due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit and considers the charity acts in accordance with the guidance. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

The Trustees are satisfied with the results for the year 2023-24 

The Charity provided a range of services and support to adults with acquired brain injury, their families, carers and supporters and between 01 April 2023 and 31 March 2024 received 80 new referrals into the service. The highest number of referrals were for those involved in Road Traffic Collisions at 24%, followed by Assaults and Strokes which accounted for 18% each, and Falls at 9%. We have successfully improved our digital presence through improvements and updates to our website and increased use of Social Media. In January a counsellor/psychotherapist joined as a volunteer, offering appointments to those accessing our service, family members and Headway staff. 

2023/24 was a positive period of change, our Fundraising and Engagement Executive successfully secured funding for the following projects: 

- New Headway kitchen, funded predominantly by the Clothworkers Foundation, but also supported by The Gillian Stevenson Foundation, and ASDA.  They enabled us to create a clean, accessible space for individuals to practice their cooking skills. 

- Day Service - The Lottery Fund, Awards For All Scheme, granted us funding to support our work in the day service, including staffing and activities. 

- Day Service Flooring - Blaby District Council supported this with a grant of £500 towards the cost. 

- Fatigue Management Course (6 weeks) - John Lewis funded this project to enable attendees to access this vital course free-of-charge. 

- Garden and pond project - Reaching People supported this work, providing a tranquil area for wildlife and for service users to enjoy the sound of water and the relaxing benefits of fish. 

- Community Outreach benefited from support from Maud Elkington, Florence Turner Trust and Leicestershire County Council. 

- The Chesterton House Foundation granted us money for activities, which included animal encounters, giving service users the opportunity to meet some creepy crawlies and exotic animals and reptiles, and a trip to The Curve Theatre. 

Core funding is often the most difficult funding to secure but The Gillian Stevenson Foundation provided £5000 to support this. 

Acting as delivery partners for the NHS Reablement Project secured further funding and is a partnership we hope to develop and continue in the future.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The net decrease in resources during the year was £4,845 compared with a net decrease of £46,903 in the previous year. Incoming resources show an increase of £56,304 in comparison with 2022/23, which was mainly due to increases in grants and donations received. Resources expended increased by £14,246. 

The main funders during the year were the Social Services Departments of Leicester City and Leicestershire County Councils and Leicester Integrated Care Board. Leicestershire County Council continue to purchase our services through the Community Life Choices Framework agreement whilst Leicester City Council buy support through a similar framework agreement called Community Opportunities. 

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to some of our other donors who are not mentioned in the Review of Activities but have made either a one-off contribution or who are long standing supporters of Headways' work: 

Thank you to all those who have offered their support either financially, with sponsorship or with the gift of time. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The constitution of the charity authorises it to make and hold investments using general funds not needed for immediate working purposes. 

In practice the charity has never had sufficient surplus to invest to provide income for the future and has no plans to do so. The current practice is to deposit surplus funds with UK banks. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's policy on reserves has been designed to protect it from uncertainties in funding from statutory bodies. It aims to ensure that there are sufficient general and designated funds to meet the potential cost of redundancies and the provision of non statutory funded services for at least six months when combined with the commitment from local government to give a three month notice period for any funding changes. 

The policy continues to provide as far as possible protection from the variation in funding from voluntary bodies arising from the interruption or non replacement of expiring charitable grants. 

The trustees have reviewed the level of reserves required and are satisfied that they are at an appropriate level. They have resolved to work towards maintaining the reserves at a level in line with the charity's policy. 

Free reserves, which are unrestricted reserves in excess of designated reserves less the fixed asset element of unrestricted reserves stand at £19,374 as of 31 March 2024 (2023 - £28,600). 

## **Going concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

- Use our newly awarded (September 2024) Reaching Communities funding to deliver our Community Outreach "Learning to be me again" project 

- Maintain fundraising income through online campaigns, corporate sponsorship, events, and public donations. 

- Explore the opportunity of Legacy fundraising. 

- Continue to improve and maintain our digital presence, increasing online engagement. 

- Introduction of a quarterly newsletter for our stakeholders, and supporters.

## **Headway** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 23rd November 1998 and registered as a charity on 17th February 1999. It began operations on 1st April 1999 when the assets and liabilities of Headway Leicester (charity number 702489) were transferred. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association, dated 23rd November 1998, which sets out the objects and powers of the charitable company, and it is governed by its Articles of Association (company number 03672087). In the event of the company being wound up, its members will be required to contribute an amount, which will not exceed £10 each. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The directors of the company are also trustees of the charity for the purposes of charity law and under the company's Articles they are known as members of the Committee of Management. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the members of the committee are elected to serve for a period of three years, after which they must be re elected at the next Annual General Meeting. 

Sarah Gunn retires by rotation and is eligible to offer herself for re election. 

The charity actively encourages service users to take an interest and assist in the running of the charity and encourages these stakeholders to apply for Board positions. James Lewis has himself suffered an acquired brain injury and receives Headway support and services, he provides extremely valuable input and insight into living with an acquired brain injury. James also acts as spokesperson for other Headway users ensuring their views are represented. Similarly, Stephen Nottridge's daughter is in receipt of Headway services, and he represents the interests of families and carers of those with ABI. 

It is normal practice to invite potential trustees to visit the service and have the opportunity to meet some of the team and people who use the services before appointing them. New trustees are given a full briefing pack, including access to all policies and procedures. There have been no new trustee appointments during this reporting period. 

The management of Leicestershire Leicester and Rutland Headway is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co opted under the terms of the Trust deed. 

## **Organisational structure and decision making** 

Leicestershire Leicester and Rutland Headway has a Committee of Management comprising of up to sixteen members who meet quarterly and who are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present the committee members come from a variety of professional backgrounds. The board has a skills audit procedure to assist in the recruitment of new trustees. 

The Services Director attends and reports to the meetings of the committee but does not have voting rights. 

Day to day responsibility for the provision of services rests with the Services Director. 

The Committee of Management is supported by two subcommittees each with specific remits including governance, finance and human resources, fundraising, marketing and media. 

The charity is an affiliated Group of the national organisation Headway, the brain injury association, which provides advice, formulates national policy, sets standards, and represents the brain injured at a national level. However, the national organisation does not have any direct responsibility for the running of the charity, which rests solely with the Committee of Management. 

Headway receives a proportion of its funding through Framework agreements and a discretionary grant from the social services departments of Leicestershire County Council and Leicester City Council and the Independent Care Board in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leicestershire Leicester And Rutland Headway** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Leicestershire Leicester And Rutland Headway ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024** 

## **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. 

## **Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions** 

The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland': 

- the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows. 

## **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. 

## **Allocation and apportionment of costs** 

Costs are apportioned between activities based on an estimate of management time spent. 

## **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 -  20% on cost Fixtures and fittings -  15% on cost Computer equipment -  33% on 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. 

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. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Debtors** 

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective rate of interest method, less any impairment. 

## **Creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
