TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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 2025. 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).
Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Our Objectives
The charity's objectives are to relieve and prevent suffering caused by mental or physical ill health, or by financial hardship, or need caused by other reasons, through the provision of counselling, information, and other services for young people aged 25 and under in the City of Cambridge, the County of Cambridgeshire, the City of Peterborough and surrounding areas.
Our Public Benefit
Centre 33 carries out a range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The Trustees consider that these activities comply with both Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity Commission’s guide on public benefit. Centre 33 works to benefit both the young people who access its services and the wider community of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
Our Vision, Mission and Values
We opened our doors in 1981 to offer young people a safe space where they could receive free, confidential and professional support in a non-judgemental and welcoming setting.
We have grown but stay true to our founding principles in all our work. We believe young people deserve respect and excellent care and support, no matter what they come to us with.
We receive positive feedback from young people who say they feel they have been listened to, are taken seriously, and have a say in their own support which makes a difference to them. The wider sector also gives us positive feedback including commissioners who say we are a trusted and respected brand, valued for our focus on young people, data usage and local knowledge.
We are a team of over 100 staff and volunteers. We work across the county, in hubs, remotely, in schools and in the community with thousands of young people each year. Last year we directly supported nearly 4000 young people on a one-to-one basis and the charity received an income of £3.8m through a combination of contracts, charitable grants and donations.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Our Vision is:
- A future where all young people are listened to, respected and supported.
Our Mission in Cambridgeshire is:
-
To offer young people support with practical issues and emotional needs that is free, confidential, empowering, easy-access and high quality.
-
To actively work with other local services so that young people’s needs are met, and their voices are heard. We apply the following Values to all our work and those we work with:
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Centre 33 achieves its aims and supports young people across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough up to the age of 25 through:
-
Direct support to young people: Offering young people support with practical issues and emotional needs through a range of services that is free, confidential, empowering, easy-access and high quality.
-
Proactive partnership: Actively working with other local services so that young people’s needs are met, and their voices are heard.
Our 'Someone to Talk to' Service (STTT)
Our 'Someone to Talk to' open access drop-in provides holistic support to young people aged 13-25 across Cambridgeshire & Peterborough. Young people access support around key issues including mental health and emotional wellbeing, employment, education, finance, housing, relationships and sexual health.
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. Across the last year 74% of young people who accessed support were from marginalised groups (including young people with a housing/homelessness need, young people living in areas of deprivation and/or experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage, LGBTQ+ young people, young carers, ethnic minorities).

CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
In 2024/25, 955 young people were supported through our ‘Someone to Talk to’ open access drop-in. 91% of young people presented with needs around their mental health & emotional wellbeing, 49% of young people sought help with issues around work, money, housing and poverty and 63% had needs around their relationships.
Following a young person coming to the ‘Someone to Talk to’ drop-in, some may go on to access further mental health interventions through our Counselling and Guided Self-Help Wellbeing teams. Young people may also be referred into these interventions following a referral to the YOUnited referral hub. Last year 1,161 young people accessed counselling or guided self-help with Centre 33. After accessing support, 72% of young people saw improved mental health following the support they received and 92% of young people reported having made progress towards their goals. Progress is measured by CORE – an indicator of psychological distress and wellbeing that is used to monitor the progress and effectiveness of counselling.
Our ‘Someone to Talk to’ staff maintained and further developed strong partnerships during 2024/25 across the local children and young people’s sector. For example, we:
-
Continued to help young people to access mental health support through being part of YOUnited, a key local partnership made up of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Foundation Trust, (CPFT), Ormiston Families and Centre 33.
-
Enabled young people to be referred to and get access to housing to meet their needs via our joint work with providers of accommodation for young people in Cambridge City.
-
Piloted a group-based offer for young people in partnership with CPSL Mind and CPFT Relational and Emotional Difficulties service (REDS).
-
Continued to strengthen our hub network through our new hub in Huntingdon and the ongoing commitment to finding a new Cambridge hub – to meet increased demand and ensure young people can access support from safe, consistent places designed by and for them.
-
Hosted visits from the Department of Health and Department of Education highlighting the ‘Someone to Talk to’ early support hub model.
-
Promoted the benefits of youth hubs and young people’s holistic support to address their wide-ranging needs through our work with Youth Access and its members.
Our Schools Counselling Provision
As well as providing counselling in our community based ‘Someone to Talk to’ Hubs, Centre 33 provides counselling in many secondary schools across Cambridgeshire. This provides a safe place for young people to share their feelings and explore ways of overcoming their distress.
In 2024/25, 321 young people received counselling through our school-based counselling offer in 14 schools across Cambridgeshire including South Cambridgeshire, East Cambridgeshire and Cambridge.
In 2024/25 78% of young people showed improvements in their mental health when completing CORE and 100% of young people reported having made progress towards their goals.
Our Young Carers Project
Centre 33 provides one-to-one support and advocacy for children and young people up to the age of 25 who take on practical and/or emotional caring responsibilities. The service aims to ensure that young carers have the same life chances, levels of wellbeing and voice as their peers by reducing the negative impact of caring responsibilities. It fulfils the statutory requirements to identify young carers needing support and offers young carer needs assessments and transition assessments into adulthood for young adult carers.
Following Centre 33’s support, in 2024/25 76% of young carers said that their caring responsibilities impacted

them less, 85% felt less isolated and 97% felt listened to.
In 2024/25 our Young Carer Service:
-
Reached over 1,700 people through outreach work including Young Carers awareness raising training and assemblies/ PSHE Lessons (remote and in-person).
-
Provided support to over 1,025 young carers up to the age of 25, including an assessment of needs or oneto-one support, group support or access to trips & activities. 22% of young carers / young adult carers assessed were providing very high levels of care.
-
Enabled an improvement in the negative impact of caring responsibilities for 62% of secondary-aged young carers and 56% of primary-age young carers.
-
Trained and supported 262 Young Carers Champions in School and Further Education Settings.
-
Continued a two-year pilot working with Young Adult Carers (16–25-year-olds) – providing assessment and support and creating opportunities to develop and respond to unmet needs.
Young Carers staff have developed strong partnerships across the local children and young people’s sector. In 2024/25 we:
-
Gave young carers a voice via the running of a Young Carers Advisory Board with young carer representatives.
-
Built strong relationships and supported young carers champion roles within primary schools, secondary schools and in Further Education settings across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. The impact of this work can be seen through a recent school census where the numbers of identified Young Carers was recorded for the first time and Cambridgeshire was in the top 5 counties for identification of Young Carers.
-
Ensured professionals can identify young carers and the right support can be accessed via our partnership work with Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council and health partners.
-
Operated as the young carers lead within an All-Age Carers Contract for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, feeding in young carers voice to the development of the Local Authority’s All Age Carers Strategy and development of future carers service.
-
Developed strong links with Papworth Trust and Cambridge Skills, through our Young Adult Carers pilot, developing opportunities for training and employment for young adult carers who face barriers to employment and education specifically due to caring roles.
A new Centre 33 hub in Cambridge
In September 2024, following a detailed feasibility exercise demonstrating the unsuitability of our current small support hub (33 Clarendon Street) to meet the growing needs for local young people, Centre 33 purchased a new Cambridge property (4a Newmarket Road). The £915,000 purchase cost was funded by two grants received in 2024/25 totaling £625,000 and a contribution from the future sale of our existing property in Clarendon Street. The new property requires significant refurbishment before it can open, and Centre 33 is currently fundraising for the costs of the necessary building work.
Centre 33 has performed a comprehensive risk assessment and detailed financial planning related to this project. Funding status, forecast expenditure and cash projections are reviewed regularly. This is an ambitious capital project, but one that Centre 33 is in a solid position to deliver. The aim is to start building work in the Autumn of 2025 and to open the new hub in the 2026/27 financial year
Fullscope
Centre 33 is a founding member of Fullscope (fullscopecollaboration.org.uk) and became its host organisation in July 2020. Fullscope is a collective of Cambridgeshire-based voluntary sector organisations working to deliver comprehensive support packages for children and young people aged 0-25 across Cambridgeshire to address mental health challenges.

Fundraising
We continue to be inspired by the strategic partners, individuals and organisations who funded our work supporting young people. Centre 33’s income has seen strong growth in recent years and wants to further diversify its funding streams to ensure long-term financial sustainability. This year the fundraising team worked with the Senior Leadership Team to develop, refine and execute a change in strategic direction in fundraising, as laid out in the 5-year plan. Increases were achieved in both unrestricted and overall income. The organisation continued to use contractors to support with grants/trusts applications who were monitored through regular meetings and regular check-ins to ensure they adhered to the charity’s values.
Centre 33 has strict standards for how donors are stewarded, and their personal data is secure and protected under GDPR legislation and our privacy notice. Throughout the year Centre 33 has received no complaints about fundraising activity. Centre 33 has not previously been required to register with the Fundraising Regulator; but during this financial year evaluated the regulator’s Code of Fundraising Practice and is putting in place processes and policies to ensure that all aspects of the Code are embedded in our fundraising activity prior to an application to the regulator.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Income
Income, excluding capital donations, increased slightly year on year with some new contracts and grants secured and increased unrestricted income. Centre 33 remains 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 increased slightly year on year due to increasing staff costs. Staff costs, which in the main relate to direct service delivery, account for 80% (80% in 2023/24) of total expenditure.
Assets and Liabilities
At 31 March 2025, Centre 33 had:
-
Total funds/net assets of £1,501,401 (£984,260 at 31 March 2024).
-
Fixed assets of £1,089,479 (£186,880 at 31 March 2024). This comprises the newly acquired property at 4a Newmarket Road, the Clarendon Street property (valued at historic cost) and the refurbishment of the Peterborough and Huntingdon offices.
-
Current assets of £933,086 (£1,015,732 at 31 March 2024). Of this, £797,574 (£963,546 at 31 March 2024) was cash.
-
Creditors of £521,164 (£218,352 at 31 March 2024) which includes deferred income of £300,253 (£52,275 at 31 March 2024).
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. Centre 33 can deviate from this policy in exceptional circumstances which must be signed off by the FRSC. Reserves will then be managed to return to be compliant with policy within a reasonable timeline, as agreed by FRSC, following the period of exceptional circumstance.
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
-
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 2025, Centre 33 held unrestricted reserves of £1,337,370 (£733,093 at 31 March 2024).

CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
It is important to note that £983,667 of this total can only be realised through the disposal of two tangible fixed assets, namely our Cambridge premises (33 Clarendon Street and 4a Newmarket Road). In addition, £105,812 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 £247,891.
Major changes in 2024/25 included purchasing 4a Newmarket Road, funded by a combination of grants and a contribution from the future sale of our existing property in Clarendon Street. Centre 33 is currently fundraising for the costs of refurbishment so we can open the new property as a fit-for-purpose young people’s support hub and sell Clarendon Street. During this period of transition, the Trustees approved a plan to deviate from our normal reserves targets of between two and three months’ average expenditure. We have secured a bank overdraft to support cashflow and reserves will be managed to return to our target upon the sale of Clarendon Street which is held at a book cost significantly below its realisable value.
Restricted Reserves
At 31 March 2025, Centre 33 held restricted reserves of £164,031 (£251,167 at 31 March 2024).
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
Governing Documentation and Constitution

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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 the 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 2024/25, 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
External benchmarking has established a salary framework for all roles across Centre 33. The board 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 2025/26 principal risks have been identified in the following areas:
Increase needs and distress experienced by young people
There is worrying evidence that rates of mental distress have risen sharply amongst young people and the increase in cost of living has disproportionately affected some young people. Centre 33 monitors the increase in severity and demand of young people needs; it shares this knowledge locally; and develops partnership responses to respond to increase demand or emerging new needs of young people.
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 the subsequent changes in employment patterns within some social care settings. Centre 33 has found that its salaries have dropped behind market rates which finds creates challenges to recruiting and retain quality staff to meet its growth in funding.
Young Peoples Support Hubs and office hubs
Change to - The growth in Centre 33 over the last few years has meant that our Cambridge premises are no longer fit for purpose. This year we purchased a new premises in Cambridge. We are fundraising for refurbishment costs which we hope to complete in 2026.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
Centre 33 has developed a multi-year Strategic Plan (April 2022 - March 2028). This plan has four overarching strategic goals.
Impact goals
- All young people across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough can receive holistic support that is accessible, high quality, impactful, targeted and led by them.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S 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 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2025 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 2025 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 Auditor's 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 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, 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 AUDITOR'S 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.
AUDITOR'S 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 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.
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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CENTRE THIRTY THREE YOUNG PEOPLE'S COUNSELLING AND INFORMATION SERVICE (CONTINUED)
As a result of the above risk assessment procedures we identified the greatest risk of material misstatement on the financial statements arising from irregularities and fraud to be within the potential for management to override controls together with the risk of fraudulent revenue recognition. We considered the risk of fraudulent revenue recognition to be most prevalent in the cut-off of revenue. We:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; and
-
performed audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business;
-
we evaluated the assumptions and judgements used by management within significant accounting estimates and assessed whether these indicated evidence of management bias;
-
we used Audit Data Analytics to review the client data for unusual trends/anomalies; and
-
performed substantive testing for a sample of transactions from client grant/donation/CRM records to supporting documentation and receipts to ensure that all income was appropriately recognised in the correct period and any restrictions appropriately recognised.
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 Auditor's Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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 a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these accounts.

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. Grants related to general activities are included within Income from donations and legacies and grants related to service delivery are included within income from charitable actitivies.
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.
Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.
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 fundraising costs for seeking donations and legacies, including trading which can include events. Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives as well the costs of negotiating for initial contracts/applying for grants which require the charity to provide specific charitable activities well as associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.5 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 building at Clarendon Street. It is the policy of the Trustees to maintain this 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% |
2.6 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.
2.7 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.
2.8 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.

2.9 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.
2.10 OPERATING LEASES
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.11 PENSIONS
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
2.12 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 Charity 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 Charity 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.

The Charity also benefits from support from volunteers to assist with general administration. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the economic contribution of general volunteers is not recognised in the accounts as it cannot be reliably measured.

During the year the Trustees reviewed the method of apportionment of costs of generating voluntary income. From 2025 these have been better aligned to reflect that much of the income generated is within income from charitable activities and accordingly these costs are now included within direct charitable expenditure. The 2024 comparatives are therefore not on a like-for-like basis.

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-focused 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
