It is a free, confidential, self-referral service which effectively targets and supports young people who are at higher risk of poor mental health; have complex needs; and/or are less able to engage with current services. The service mapped reach of specific groups of vulnerable young people (including ethnic minorities, young people with disability, LGBTQ+ young people, young carers, those experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage, housing need, and young people living in areas of deprivation) across all our services, 72% of the young people supported this year are in one or more of these groups. When looking specifically at young people accessing our STTT service and mental health interventions (i.e., excluding Young Carers), 64% of the young people supported are in one or more vulnerable groups.
The service offers free advice, assessment, and advocacy support to young people via open access drop-ins .

After accessing support, 73% of young people saw progress following the support they received and 91% of young people reported having made progress towards their goals.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

-
Expenditure totalled £2,937,627 (£3,060,517 in 2022/23)
-
This resulted in a positive net movement in funds for the year of £82,387 (negative movement of £199,033 in 2022/23)
Income
Income has remained relatively stable year on year with some new contracts and grants secured and good progress made towards increasing unrestricted income in future years. Centre 33 remain extremely grateful to those organisations and individuals who funded our work, without whom the achievements within the year would not have been possible.
Expenditure
Costs have decreased slightly year on year, albeit with increasing staff costs. Staff costs, which in the main relate to direct service delivery, account for 80% (78% in 2022/23) of total expenditure.
Assets and Liabilities
-
At 31 March 2024, Centre 33 had:
-
Total funds/net assets of £984,260 (£901,873 at 31 March 2023)
-
Fixed assets of £186,880 (£194,810 at 31 March 2023). This comprises the Clarendon Street property valued at cost and the refurbishment of the Peterborough offices and Huntingdon offices.
-
Current assets of £1,015,732 (£1,276,378 at 31 March 2023). Of this, £963,546 (£780,023 at 31 March 2023) was cash
-
Creditors of £218,352 (£569,315 at 31 March 2023) which includes deferred income of £52,275 (£261,481 at 31 March 2023).
Pensions
Centre 33's pension scheme is operated through Creative Pension Trust. All staff are auto enrolled under the current legislation. The scheme does not carry a liability.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have resolved that the Charity should aim to keep a level of free reserves equal to between two and three months average expenditure.
This policy is based on a thorough review of risks and needs. In developing this policy, Trustees have considered the following:
-
The priority of spending incoming funds on meeting the organisation’s core strategic purpose
-
The requirement to ensure essential services for vulnerable beneficiaries are maintained if any funding
-
streams are reduced / removed, large, unexpected expenses materialise or a short-term deficit in cashflow materialises
-
The importance of scaling reserves with the growth of the organisation
-
The desire to maintain flexibility to future opportunities and to launch new initiatives

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
• The ownership of a freehold property that could be sold in the medium-term to leverage additional funds
Trustees and management do not want to hold surplus funds unnecessarily, but believe long-term sustainability is paramount to beneficiaries and therefore on balance are comfortable that this policy is appropriate for the organisation.
The reserves levels are reviewed on an annual basis as a minimum, at Board level, and whenever deemed necessary appropriate action is taken so that the reserves level complies with this policy.
Unrestricted Reserves
At 31 March 2024, Centre 33 held unrestricted reserves of £733,093 (£691,501 at 31 March 2023).
It is important to note that £61,561 of this total can only be realised through the disposal of a tangible fixed asset, namely our Cambridge premises (33 Clarendon Street). In addition, £125,319 represents the remaining carrying value of tangible fixed assets held by Centre 33 for operational use to carry out its activities.
This leaves free reserves amounting to £546,213.
Budgeted expenditure for 2024/25, including activities funded by restricted donations/grants but excluding Fullscope, is in the region of £3.1m and therefore target free reserves are in the range of £500k to £750k. The current free reserves are at the low end of this target and the Charity will continue to fundraise and seek further unrestricted funds. It is acknowledged that the unrestricted funds are not large and therefore need to be grown through investment in fundraising.
Restricted Reserves
At 31 March 2024, Centre 33 held restricted reserves of £251,167 (£210,372 at 31 March 2023).
Restricted reserves are funds which have been given by funders for a particular service. The charity is unable to use these funds outside of the agreed purpose.
These funds relate to unspent amounts ongoing projects within the Someone to Talk to and Fullscope services
No restricted funds were in deficit.
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.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Appointment, Induction and Training of Trustees
Trustee recruitment is managed by the HR Sub-Committee.
In selecting a person to be appointed as a trustee, consideration is given to how their residence, occupation, employment, special knowledge, and personal or professional qualifications may contribute to delivering against the objects of the charity. A periodic trustees’ skills audit is also conducted to assess any areas where additional expertise may be required.
The minimum number of trustees is three and the maximum is fifteen.
New Trustees are elected by the Board of Trustees at the Annual General Meeting.
All new Trustees are provided with comprehensive induction and training to become familiar with their roles and responsibilities and Centre 33's work. This includes meeting with key staff and receipt of an induction pack containing copies of key policies and documents and a copy of Good Trustee Guide.
Following their appointment, Centre 33 provides trustees with ongoing training as appropriate.
Organisational structure and decision-making policies
The Trustees of Centre 33 are responsible for the overall direction and management of the Charity.
The Board of Trustees meets regularly throughout the year to discuss and decide on issues affecting the Charity, delegating appropriate matters to its sub-committees and operational management to the Chief Executive Officer.
Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and declare potential conflicts of interest at each Trustee meeting which is then recorded in the minutes.
The core Senior Leadership Team consists of the Chief Executive Officer, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Director of Finance and HR, Director of Partnerships & Development and Head of Operations, Projects and Communication, with a wider SLT including Head of Quality & Impact and Director of Services.
The Senior Management Team includes the Senior Leadership Team as well as Clinical Leads, Service Leads and specialist managers.
Volunteers
Centre 33 would not be able to deliver its services without the skills, dedicated support, and commitment of its volunteers. In 2023/24, the organisation was supported by over 50 volunteers. Most volunteer activity relates to the delivery of counselling and support services to young people. These volunteers are supported by specialist supervision in addition to the general volunteer support package. Some volunteers provide practical support in running and maintaining services. Volunteers receive full induction as well as on-going training and support during their time at Centre 33.
Pay policy for key management personnel
The Chair, Deputy Chair, Treasurer, and Chair of the HR Sub-Committee set the salary for the Chief Executive Officer and agrees the annual pay increases for the whole staff group, in line with the financial performance of the charity.

Related party relationships
Centre 33 has no related party arrangements to disclose.
Risk management
Risks are identified, monitored, managed, and recorded in a Risk Log.
The Board of Trustees oversees the development and implementation of the risk management strategy. The Board and Senior Leadership Team review the Risk Log annually to confirm that the major risks have been identified correctly and that controls are in place to manage them. The HR Sub-Committee reviews on a quarterly basis.
The Finance and Risk Sub Committee is responsible for the ongoing monitoring of the Risk Log to ensure that all significant risks are identified and prioritised and that appropriate controls and actions are in place and will highlight significant changes to the Board of Trustees.
Centre 33’s Senior Leadership Team is responsible for ensuring that the risk management policy is implemented and for co-ordinating risk management activity across Centre 33.
Principal current risks have been influenced by inflation, increasing demand, organisation growth, the employment market, and the long-term sustainability of funding.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
In 2023/24 the principal risks have been in the following areas:
Increase in distress experienced by young people
There is worrying evidence that rates of mental distress have risen sharply amongst young people, and that this, combined with deferred demand from the lockdown periods threatens to overwhelm services. Alongside this, the effect of the pandemic and increase in costs of living on young people’s mental health has disproportionately affected some young people, and this threatens to exacerbate existing inequalities. The increase in severity of issues and demand is being monitored. Centre 33 is sharing knowledge and planning with partners across the sector to manage future demand.
Staff Recruitment and Retention (including inflationary pressures on salaries)
Recruitment in social care is a challenge across the UK. There are many factors influencing this situation including unprecedented levels of inflation, a tough labour market, and the changes in general working patterns, a concern regarding job security, and Brexit and the subsequent changes in employment patterns within some social care settings. Centre 33 finds it challenging to recruit and retain quality staff to meet its growth in funding.
Young Peoples Support Hubs and office hubs
The growth in Centre 33 over the last few years has meant that our Cambridge and Huntington premises are no longer fit for purpose. Service and staff needs have been reviewed and other premises are being sought. This year we moved into a new hub in Huntingdon and found a new hub for Cambridge.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
Centre 33 has developed a multi-year Strategic Plan (April 2022 - March 2028). This plan has four overarching strategic goals.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE
OPINION
We have audited the financial statements of Centre Thirty Three Young People's Counselling and Information Service (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2024 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
CONCLUSIONS RELATING TO GOING CONCERN
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

OTHER INFORMATION
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' 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, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, 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.
OPINION ON OTHER MATTERS PRESCRIBED BY THE COMPANIES ACT 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
-
the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
MATTERS ON WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT BY EXCEPTION
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of Trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the Trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Trustees' Report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (CONTINUED)
RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES
As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
AUDITORS' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 Auditors' 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
-
the senior statutory auditor ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Charity through discussions with Trustees and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the sector;
-
we obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Charity and how the Charity is complying with that framework;
-
we obtained an understanding of the Charity’s policies and procedures on compliance with laws and regulations, including documentation of any instances of non-compliance;
-
we identified which laws and regulations were significant in the context of the Charity. The Laws and regulations we considered in this context were Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011 and taxation legislation. We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items;
-
in addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the Charity’s ability to operate or to avoid material penalty; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.

CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (CONTINUED)
We assessed the susceptibility of the Charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
-
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we;
-
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
-
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in the accounting policy were indicative of potential bias; and
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Centre Thirty Three Young People's Counselling & Information Service is a charitable company limited by guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales. It's registered office and principal place of business is 33 Clarendon Street, Cambridge, CB1 1JX.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Centre Thirty Three Young People's Counselling and Information Service meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
2.2 GOING CONCERN
The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future having made due regard to secured and pipeline funding and planned charitable activities. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.3 INCOME
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance Sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold.
Where the donated good is a fixed asset, it is measured at fair value, unless it is impractical to measure this reliably, in which case the cost of the item to the donor should be used. The gain is recognised as income from donations and a corresponding amount is included in the appropriate fixed asset class and depreciated over the useful economic life in accordance with the Charity's accounting policies.
On receipt, donated professional services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity which is the amount it would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
2.4 EXPENDITURE
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.5 INTEREST RECEIVABLE
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
2.6 TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
Tangible fixed assets costing £1,500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
No depreciation is provided on the freehold buildings. It is the policy of the Trustees to maintain the Freehold building in such condition that its useful economic life is indeterminate. In the opinion of the Trustees, this policy results in the residual value of the property (by reference to the price ruling at the time of acquisition) being not less than is present value in the accounts. Consequently, no depreciation is charged on this property.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
| Leasehold additions | - over the lease term |
|---|---|
| Plant and machinery | - 10% |
| Fixtures and fittings | - 25% |
| Office equipment | - 25% |
2.7 DEBTORS
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
2.8 CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

2.9 LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
2.10 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Charity only has financial assets and financial 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.11 OPERATING LEASES
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.12 PENSIONS
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.
2.13 FUND ACCOUNTING
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Company for particular purposes. Where possible, an allocation of the costs of administering such funds is charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

16. STATEMENT OF FUNDS (CONTINUED)
RESTRICTED FUNDS
Young Carers Services
The charity receives various grants and donations which fund certain aspects of its work on the young carers project.
Someone to Talk to
Someone to Talk to is a free and confidential one-stop shop for young people who have mental health and practical needs. The service is for all young people but actively targets those experiencing mental health inequalities and barriers to accessing services. The most common needs we see are mental health/emotional wellbeing, homelessness, financial competence and safer sexual choices. The service also provides specialist mental health support through short-term, solution-focussed counselling to young people.
The charity receives various grants and donations which are restricted for various projects within the Somone to Talk to charitable activities.
Fullscope
Fullscope is a consortium of seven local charities with a shared mission to improve mental health and wellbeing of children and young people in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. Initially funded by The Big Lottery Fund the consortium was established in June 2019 and is managed by the members based on a Memorandum of Understanding. On 1 July 2020 Centre 33 went from a Partner to become the Lead Partner. As a result it is responsible for the income and expenses of the consortium. All income and expenses related to Fullscope are included within this fund.
DESIGNATED FUNDS
33 Clarendon Street
The fund represents the funds expended when the freehold property was purchased in 1991, along with subsequent costs.
Cyclical maintenance fund
The fund is to provide cyclical maintenance to 33 Clarendon Street. These funds were transferred and used for other property maintenance in the prior year.
Other fixed assets
This fund represents the net book value of the charity's remaining tangible fixed assets. As these are used for operational purposes these funds are otherwise not freely available for use by the charity.
Service delivery fund
This fund represented the unrestricted budgeted deficit for the 2022/23 financial year.

21. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
In 1991, Cambridge City Council advanced £17,000 to the Charity to enable it to buy the freehold property 33 Clarendon Street, Cambridge for the sum of £48,361. The was advanced on the condition that the building be only used for purposes specified in the Charity's objectives and that, in the event of the property being sold, an amount would be repayable, being the lower of £17,000 plus interest calculated at 2% below the base rate of Midland Bank and 17/66ths of the market value of the property, provided that, in the event of the £17,000 plus interest figure being the lower of the two, the difference between this and the 17/66ths figure is applied for the purposes of the Charity, otherwise the higher would be repayable.
