Year ended 31 March 2025
The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year to 31 March 2025.

The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company’s governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (‘SORP’) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the financial reporting standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102 issued in October 2019).

Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)
Year ended 31 March 2025
Structure, governance and management
Governing Document
The charity registered with the Charity Commission on 10 June 1999, under number 1075934 and was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee, company number 03657728, on 28 October 1998. The governing documents of the charity are the memorandum and articles of association. The articles of association were revised on 23 May 2019. By special resolution dated 27 September 2019 the charity changed its name from 'Holbeck Elderly Aid' to 'Holbeck Together'. The charity is keeping its governing structures under review, including legal and taxation advice to ensure full compliance with all statutory requirements. Based on the advice received, Trustees have decided to maintain current governance structures whilst keeping under review the implications of trading, growth in the charity's asset base, and broadening charitable activities.
Appointment of Trustees, Induction and Training
The Board of Trustees is the governing body of the charity. The Board continues to use a skills matrix for current trustees and uses this information to appoint from time-to-time new trustees, taking account of skills, knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm for the cause of the charity. During the year to 31st March 2025, Ann Hopper, a longstanding trustee and vice chair, sadly passed away after a long illness. Ann was a founding member of the charity, a strong advocate for local people and an active supporter and volunteer for the charity. The Board is actively pursuing the appointment of one or more new trustees at the present time.
Risk Management
The identification and management of risk is integral to the work of Holbeck Together. A strategic risk register is in place covering governance, finance, operational and strategic development. It identifies the potential risks the organisation is exposed to and, for each risk, the existing controls in place and potential improvements in control. The Risk Register is overseen by a lead trustee and updated on a regular basis. Risks are considered at every board meeting along with mitigations. During the year work has been ongoing to address data and cyber security following the appointment of a new IT Service provider. Another high priority has been the safety and security of staff and service users, with further investment in the security system at the St Matthews Centre. During the year the risk register has been expanded to incorporate risks associated with the Heart of Holbeck project and the business plan required to support the grant allocation from the Levelling Up Fund.
Fundamental to our risk management is fulfilling our statutory responsibilities for health and safety and as a charity working with vulnerable people, safeguarding. The Board has appointed a lead trustee for both areas, who work closely with the Operations Manager. During the year safeguarding data has been transferred to CRM software and security access has been reviewed. Incident reporting and follow up actions are also reviewed with the lead trustee. A safeguarding report is presented to every full board meeting.
Safeguarding
Building our roots supporting older people to live healthy and active lives in the community, we place safeguarding at the heart of everything we do. This is particularly important as the charity extends its remit to support all members of the community, with particular emphasis on families and children through our school holiday work. The board has appointed a trustee to take a safeguarding lead, and an audit of safeguarding procedures and practice has been undertaken. All board members will complete or refresh their safeguarding training in the next financial year.
Fundraising Policy
The charity has an active fundraising strategy approved by the board and reviewed on a regular basis. This strategy identifies grant making trusts and potential corporate donors that the charity is already working with or is seeking to submit successful funding applications. The charity does not undertake any fundraising door to door activity; ask for donations on the street; share or sell peoples data; or cold call for fundraising purposes. The charity does not contract with any third-party organisation to raise funds on its behalf. The charity has developed some trading activities including a shop, a café and transport which are income generating. During the year the charity held a match day fund raising event in partnership with Leeds United and actively promoted the charity at several local events including the Holbeck Christmas Fayre.
Applications for larger grants including the one submitted during the year to The National Lottery Community Fund is only possible through working with external consultants in the preparation of funding applications. The board maintains oversight of all fundraising activities, and trustees are responsible for signing all legally binding contracts and funding agreements. Due to its size, the charity does not include itself within the Fundraising Regulator regime.
Arising from our active fundraising strategy the income profile for the charity is changing, with a growing contribution from income generated through charging for services and corporate sponsorship. During the year Holbeck Together commenced planning for the launch of a Business Alliance, a multi-sector partnership which aims to focus on the needs of people living in the Holbeck area.

Objectives and activities
The objectives of the charity are set out in the governing document. Holbeck Together is an independent charity whose aim is to support and assist the residents of the Holbeck neighbourhood and surrounding area in alleviating social isolation. Through the revised charitable objectives approved in 2019, the charity has successfully expanded its reach to all people in the Holbeck and wider community.
Holbeck Together (HT) has embraced the concept of the "community anchor" organisation working with local people across all generations to improve lives and strengthen community cohesion. As the 'community anchor' the charity consults frequently and widely with local people, working closely with statutory agencies on their future plans and issues that impact on the local community. If gaps in services are identified HT works with agencies to bring their services closer to where people live, for example sessions run by West Yorkshire Police and the NHS at St Matthews centre and the City Council's mobile advice service regularly parks outside the centre.

Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)
Year ended 31 March 2025
Our Business Alliance initiative is designed to raise awareness and encourage all sectors to contribute and support social investment to achieve these goals, including opportunities for employment and improved health and well-being. The Heart of Holbeck project, funded through central government, has moved forward significantly during the year and plans for the refurbishment of the St Matthews Centre and the Leeds Building Society owned 'Old Box Office' building are at an advanced stage. The services and facilities hosted by these two buildings from 2026 onwards will form a 'community hub' and a key building block in meeting our strategic goals. Finally, building on our relationship with the National Lottery Community Fund, Holbeck Together was invited to submit a stage 2 funding application for a 3-year programme entitled 'Live, Thrive, Work, Play' which was submitted in March 2025.
Holbeck Together's charitable objectives focus on the lives of people who live in Holbeck and surrounding areas. On a day-to-day basis we offer a range of services accessible by the whole community, ranging from hot meals, a warm place to meet people and enjoy company, keep fit activities, digital access, well-being sessions and mental health support. During the summer months there is a programme of trips and outings for older people and for families. Holbeck Together works extensively with other organisations to facilitate access to and the provision of a wider range of services based on the St Matthews Centre and the surrounding open spaces. Examples include health screening delivered by the NHS and community safety advice, delivered by West Yorkshire Police.
This year was one of consolidation improving and building on the services offered at St Matthews. The charity introduced additional layers of security, in partnership with and taking advice from, other organisations such as Safer Leeds and West Yorkshire Police.
A summary of the charity's activities:
1. Community Support - Holbeck Together's community support work includes maintaining regular contact and visiting people identified as the most vulnerable in the local community. Partnerships with statutory organisations, including the NHS and Leeds City Council, aim to deliver more accessible services and support, tailored to the needs of the local community. A team of volunteers assists with this work, delivering hot meals and responding to calls for assistance. In partnership with other third sector organisations, Holbeck Together is now delivering a range of additional services including mental health community engagement work.
2. Transport services - The two minibuses are in regular use, enabling people in Holbeck to participate in activities organised by the charity, including a programme of regular shopping trips and outings. A further vehicle is used to deliver hot meals and to transport individuals to medical appointments. Our vehicles are regularly hired out to similar organisations across the city who share our charitable objectives.
3. Activities - A programme of activities for all age groups is publicised through a regular newsletter and on the Holbeck Together website. The summer programme of outings is very popular and special celebration events at the St Matthews Centre are always well supported. Demand for the school holiday support programmes for children and families continues to grow.
Organisation
The Board of Trustees meets a minimum of 6 times each year to review the performance of the charity and guide the charity's strategic direction. Since the last annual report, a number of sub-groups have been established, for example, a group to review pay and HR policies including appraisal and performance-related pay of key staff members.
Public Benefit
The charity's main activities are set out above in this report. All activities focus on providing social care and support to the community. The impact of the charity's work reaches beyond those directly helped and includes reducing stress and concern suffered by families and friends. The trustees acknowledge and confirm that the activities of the charity are for the public benefit.

Holbeck Together
Company Limited by Guarantee
Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)
Year ended 31 March 2025
Expenditure totalled £585,007 (2024: £582,855). Of this, £364,075 came from restricted funds (2024: £398,324) and £220,932 from general funds (2024: £184,531) which includes unrestricted grants and other income. £366,235 of expenditure in the year was on delivery of charitable activities (2024: £411,281) and £218,772 on support costs (2024: £171,574).
The charity operated within the range set out in our Reserves Policy during the year.
During the year the number of staff employed fell by 2. Besides those posts funded directly by grant or contract, two posts are an addition to the core costs of the charity, through the appointment of a finance worker and caretaker for St Matthews.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have a long-established Reserves Policy with the overarching principle to hold a robust level of reserves, designed to ensure financial stability and support the charity's objectives during times of uncertainty and investment for growth.
The policy is reviewed on an annual basis. During the most recent review, adjustments were made to account for changes in operational risks and financial priorities.
The reserves policy continues to be aligned with the charity's risk register. In the past year, the board has identified additional risks. These risks have been addressed to ensure the charity maintains sufficient reserves to mitigate potential impacts. The trustees remain committed to ensuring reserves are managed responsibly to support the charity's work.
The board will continue to monitor the reserves policy in relation to the charity's risk profile and financial position, with the next review scheduled for next year.
As at 31 March 2025 the charity reported total reserves of £314,043 (2024: £250,553) of which £248,296 represented unrestricted reserves (2024: £178,973). None of those reserves were designated and £37,502 were invested in fixed assets (2024: £48,174) giving free reserves for the charity at 31 March 2025 of £276,541 (2024: £202,379).
Going concern
In reviewing the sustainability of the charity trustees consider the financial health of the charity, including the reserves and identified financial risks. However, trustees also consider whether the organisation is succeeding in delivering its charitable objectives and has a successful track record of raising funds through grants, contracts and sponsorship. Trustees are of the opinion that Holbeck Together continues to demonstrate its ability to enhance its reputation and build third sector leadership combined with generating and diversifying its income streams through an effective fundraising strategy and partnership working.
Now that central government commitment to the 'Heart of Holbeck' project has been confirmed, along with further plans to bring substantial investment and regeneration to South Leeds and Holbeck in particular, the charity leadership is expending significant time and resources to ensure Holbeck Together delivers. Whilst our immediate focus is on the successful completion of the St Matthews and 'Old Box Office' schemes, trustees must be mindful of the impact that growth in income and expenditure, the resources required to deliver new work programmes and all the associated risks, are carefully managed. Trustees will ensure that our charitable objectives remain at the forefront of all our plans and decision making. At board and management level we are fortunate in having people with a depth of knowledge and skills across all business sectors and above all the leadership skills to take Holbeck Together forward.
All that Holbeck Together achieves is only made possible through the dedication and professionalism of our team of employed staff and our growing team of volunteers. Together they make our vision for Holbeck Together a reality; a dynamic organisation working with the people of Holbeck to improve their lives.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Holbeck Together
Year ended 31 March 2025
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Holbeck Together ('the charity') for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements 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 the 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
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements 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
-
the financial statements 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
Year ended 31 March 2025
1. General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales and a registered charity in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is The Old Box Office, 99 Domestic Street, Leeds, LS11 9NS.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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 issued in October 2019 (FRS 102), (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity and are rounded to the nearest £. The significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Significant judgements
No significant judgements have been made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. The key assumptions and other sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows:
Allocation of overheads and support costs by activity
The allocation of support costs between activity types is an estimation based upon the type of work performed and expenditure required for each activity type.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds comprise accumulated surpluses and deficits on the general fund and designated funds. They are available for use at the discretion of the directors in the furtherance of the company's general charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are created when grants and donations are made for a particular purpose, the use of which is restricted to that purpose.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Year ended 31 March 2025
3. Accounting policies (continued)
Incoming resources
Income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
Legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
Income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: Income from donations is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount 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 in 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.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
- Fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% reducing balance - Computer equipment 25% reducing balance - Plant and machinery 25% reducing balance
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
