Aehievements and performance
Furniture redistribution (Happy Homes)
During 2024 our furniture redistribution service has continued to meet families, n¢¢ds in the East
Staffordshir¢, South Derbyshire, Tamwortb atLdDeiby communities. Th¢ Trustees review the perforniance
of the shops and took the decision to close the Tamworth Shop in November 2024. This was because
footfall had dropped considerably in Tamwortb and we witnessed many retail units close nearby on the
High Street.
During opening times, the furnithre staff and volunteers handled a larg¢ volurne of items of ￿rnIture and
visited local homes for collections and deliveries. After safety testing, we provided many items including
cook¢rs, washing machines and fridges to families and individuals in need. Additional efforts have again
been required to support a larger base of families in need of essential household fillniture and effects.
Food bank for the homeless
The charity was able to assist with the provision of basic food, which had been donated by local churches,
schools, businesses, con]munity groups and individuals. Many families and single p¢opl¢ do not have
anywher¢ to turn in titnes of crisis and although support is restricted to 2-3 food bags per per50n, the charity
endeavors to help in an ¢m¢rg¢ncy. Toiletries and sleeping bags ar¢ also supplied to peopl¢ who are sleeping
rough.
In 2024 w¢ distributed 3,075 emergency food parc¢ls to 4,075 people, of which 1,01 I was under 18.
Curr¢ntly all Key Stage I school childr¢n receive free school dinners th¢r¢for¢ the impact during the
holidays on family budgets can be significanL Chang¢s in b¢nefits, sanctions, new ben¢fit claims,
unemploymenL impact of the cost-of-living crisis and changes to family and individuals, income were
cited as to why the food parcels were needed.
The food bank could not operate without the generosity of the local community with individuals, churches,
schools, local businesses, Rotary Clubs regularly donating food. We also have a large quantity of food
donated duTing the 'Harvest Festival, and ChTiStmas period. We also purchased food items that people
could not afford to donats from donations and funds given to the Charity.
Mediation for families and young people
Dis¢ov¢ring potential and supporting young p¢ople describes what the charity's supported housing work is
all about. It carries with it the idea of transforming a young person's life through a journey of discovery
and of hope. The charity SUPPOrts young resid¢]Jts (18-35) at its two housing projccts: Milton House and
Georg¢ Williams House.
We understand that to help end homelessness we n¢ed to offer more than just accommodation and that we
D¢¢d to tackle the underlying cause of homelessness. During 2024 we m¢t with many young people who
were in danger of becoming homeless. We supported thcm with help from our outreach teatn and working
with Housing Options.
The aim of Family Mediation is to strengthen and rebuild family relationships so that young people can
remain living in the family home. The success of the program is for our mediation to be able to facilitate
the adult and young person having that 'difficult conversation..

BURTON UPON TRENT AND DISTRICT YMCA
TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR TO 31 DECEMBER 2024
Early, and strategic, interv¢ntion can stop famtly disputes from escalating to the point when a young person
is asked to leave home. The ages of th¢ young people range from I I to 24 years old. The types of issu¢s
that families were dealing with includ¢: Unexplained development of violent outbursts, the aft¢nnath of the
experience of family break-UP> Young person r¢turning to the family hom¢, Tensions in single-parent
families, Young person running away, the impact of safeguarding incidents on relationships, and th¢ impact
of the cost-of-living crisis.
The mediation sessions help peopl¢ communicate effectively, allowing for honest and open discussion, in
a non-judgmental and neutral environment. Mediation keep5 families together and helps them to
communicate and build stronger relationships leading to a stable and s¢¢ure home life. As w¢ll as being
able to stay at home. in a stabl¢ and loving environment, we also notice improv¢m¢nts in behavior and
school attendance following family mediation.
There are some circumstances when it isn't safe for a young peTson to remain at home. Mediation is not
offered in these cases and the appropriate organisations are infornied to ensure the relevant support is in
place.
Wben a young person is still living at home but the relationship between parent, stepparent or carer has
become strained, we can offer Family Mediation to help keep the young p¢rson at home, where it is saf¢ to
do so. Our Mediators spend an averag¢ of five and a half hours WAth Cach family and 90% of our mediations
have had a positive outcome.
Supported housing
Th¢ charity houses p¢opl¢ with a genuine need and always explains the project set up to them. In order that
the young people are aware from the sts¢ of what they can expect, it is explained that there are rules with
which they need to comply, and equally the charity has oblAgations to tbem, acting on behalf of our Social
Housing LandloriL under a license agreement. Once housed. the housing staff assists with benefit
applications, registering WAth a doctor, obtaining a bank account, paying utility bills, address changes. and
making friends. They talk with and encourage the youngp¢rson to Work out theirplans openly andhollestly.
This enables the best means of support to be deteTmined, so that they can fully discover and acbi¢vc their
goals. Regular support, usually one to on¢, is given and the support programmes vary to meet each peison's
needs. Most critical life skills, which include cooking* cleaning and budgeting, are covered and referral to
more specialised support services arranged where applicable. Close liaison with other agencies is
maintained to ensure people are ieceiving the external exp¢rtise they need to progress with their lives. The
support staff and the Chaplain are availabl¢, so if a young person has a problem or issue, or just needs to
see a fricndly face. they always havc som¢one they can approach. Th¢y are learning to liv¢ alone and stand
on their own two f¢¢t, but if they slip, they have support staff to turn to. Three volunteer counsellors offer
counselling support on a weekly basis to those young people that ne¢d th¢ service. Activities aT¢ provided,
residents with mental bealth issues at¢ supported and a 'pathway' is developed to support young people
grow, tbrive, and belong.
Support for the young residents in preparing to move on accommodation is given. Many apply for Local
Housing Association accornrnodation, and support is provided with applications. At this stsge, many ar¢
successfully engaged in education, training or employment, and again, help to think about th¢ next step is
provided.

Reconnect- adult supported services
At Jam¢s Court Housing Project and in paTthership with our Landlord Midland Heart, we operate a housing
and support facility called Reconnect. This project addresses the complex needs of hom¢l¢ss people coming
directly off the streets. With this special facility in East Staffordshire homeless people have one location
where tbey can have a shower, a change of clothing, a food parcel and a frlendly person to talk to. We are
grat¢fiJl to all our funders and the n]any individuals that have supported our community fundraising for the
developm¢nt and running of the Reconnect Centre. Reconnect also offers 31 units of accommodation to
single homeless people.
Finaneial review
The Net Incom¢ of £165,430, prior to accounting for th¢ uwealized gain on investments, comes from
u￿estrICted activities. The shortfall in restricted fimds, amounting to £17,225. stems from our dedication
to initiatives that go beyond the available restricted fi￿dillg. For instance. our foodbank, which receives
support from The National Lottery Community Fund- RC Midlands region grant, needed an infusion of
unrestricted fimds to cope with the heavy demand for emergency food parcels throughout th¢ y¢ar. This
trend is expected to persist in 2025. as the grant funding allocated through June 2025 has already been fully
utilized. Additionally, our efforts to assist r¢sAd¢nts with complex needs SU￿asS the funding provided by
the 29 May 1961 Charitable Trust grant.
The surylus in Unrestricted funds, totaling £182,655 (excluding the U￿ealized gain on illvestments), has
been primarily allocated as designated fimds. This largely represents an extended con)mitment to the
operating leases for the George Williams Hous¢ and James Court properties, now set to th¢ 2027 break
point rather than 2025.
Our fundraising and donation initiatives continued to tl]riv¢ throughout the year, generating approxIn￿telY
£174K to fiuld our work-an in¢r¢as¢ of more than 160/0 compaTed to a strong 2023. OUT consistent success
in this ar¢a stands as a testament to our capabilities and collaboration with local businesses. charities and
individuals. This achievement came even though a fundraiser, alld m¢dia and comms officer Left the ChaTity
in the last quart¢r' temporary assistance was brought with a media and con]ms officer while w¢ scarch for
a pemwi¢nt fundraising officer replacement.
In contrast to 2023, 2024 saw a decrease in the Happy Homes furniture store trading income due to tough
market conditions, similar to other Charity Shops on the High Street. The Tamworth shop shut down in
early November, contributing to a total income drop of about £47L As a result, we coulthi't fully me¢t our
dir¢¢t operating costs, ending up being roughly £3 IK short. Despite this, the Happy Homes Project remains
a vital part of our charitable rnission. and our willingness to sustain it at this level underscores our
dedication, ev¢n though we aim to at least break ¢v¢n on direct costs over time. Income generated at the
start of 2025 has be¢n far more promising, and we're actively assisting our staff and volunteers in boosting
sales, tI￿Ough increased staff training, including through gift aid recovery-and Taising awareness of our
services within the broader community.
Our social housing services hav¢ continu¢d to perfom] exceptionally well, achieving near-￿11 occupancy
throughout the year. This remarkable success reflects the team's hard work and commitment> particularly
when it com¢5 to turning around void properties. The 10-year operdting l¢ases for George Williams House
and James Court provide lower short-term operating costs compared to the previous management
agreements. We are Committed to investing in our housing properties and securing their long-tern]
operation. This includes Milton House, which currently operates under a management agreement with
Midland Heart. Our objective is to r¢place this with an operating lease.

or invested in tangible f￿ed assets (the free rese￿es) held by the charity would be up to 3 months average
annual expenditure as d¢fined in the following financial y¢ar's budge¢ excluding depreciation and doubtfi
debt provision, which equates to £513,776 (2023 - £508,021). At present the free reserves, as shown in
note 23, stand at £288,683 (2023 - £283,532).
The trustees acl(nowledge the gap between actual and target free reserves as of 3 1st December 2024. This
will be addressed by the appointment of a development manager in early 2025 to secure additional funding,
SUPPOrted by a strong QI perforn]ance that suggests the shortfall will reduce in the near to medium tem]. If
necessary, funds allocated for building development could also be utilized to meet operational needs.

opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuranc¢ but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordan¢¢ with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can
arise from fraud or error and aT¢ considered material if, individually or in the aggregate. they could
reasonably be expected to infiuence the economic d¢cisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.
Irr¢gulariti¢s, including fraud, are instsn¢es of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our r¢sponsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
iffegularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting iThegularities,
including fraud is d¢tail¢d below:
Bas¢d on our understanding of the charitable company and the industy in which it operates, we identified
that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the acts by the charitable
company, which were contrary to applicabl¢ laws and regulations including fraud, and we considered the
extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on th¢ financial statements. W¢ also
considered those laws and regulations that hav¢ a direct impact on the preparation of th¢ financial
statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated managem¢nt's incentives and opporbJniti¢s for
fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the Tisk of override of controls) and
deterniined that the principal risks were related to rent income, debtors and grant income.
Audit procedures perfornied by the engagement team included..
r¢vi¢wing the systsms, controls and procedures of the charity relevant to the preparation of th¢
financial statements to ensure these w¢r¢ in place throughout the year.

review of correspond¢llc¢ with atLd reports to the regulator5, including correspondence with the
Charity Con]mission'

testing of journals in particular journal ¢ntri¢s post¢d by unusual users. postings with unusual
d¢scriptions, postings with unusual time5 and dates and postings with unusual and material
