Trustees' Report
The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 28 February 2025.
Purpose
We work to ensure that disabled people have equality by influencing positive change, challenging barriers, and providing choice and opportunity.
Annual Objectives
-
Influence positive strategic change across the region to enhance the lives of disabled people of all ages.
-
o Provide advocacy to as many disabled people as possible, ensuring their existing rights are upheld. o Offer assistance to disabled people in relation to active citizenship, such as developing skills for employment and independence.
-
Remain financially sustainable, ensuring the service is available for disabled people in the years to come.
Main Activities
Strategic
We committed time to various strategic boards and forums this year. Notably, we co-chaired the Greater Manchester Disabled People's Panel, working on issues such as social care, benefits, and access to work across the region.
Nationally, we represented personal assistants and individual employers on the Skills for Care PA Framework Steering Group. Through this, we had opportunities to influence policy and engage directly with the Department of Health and Social Care, including speaking at the launch of the Adult Social Care Strategy in London.
Locally, we continued strong involvement in Wigan Borough, chairing the Family Forum, participating in the Learning Disability Partnership Board, and being an active member of the Personalisation Board.
Advocacy and Information, Advice and Guidance
-
Continued to offer services for disabled people of all ages.
-
o Supported 1,256 families through SEND work, offering advice, form filling, advocacy in meetings, and emotional support.
-
Provided Care Act Advocacy to over 200 individuals, ensuring their voices were heard across various settings.
-
o Delivered Child Protection Advocacy to around 100 parents, often helping families remain together and reducing involvement from children’s social care.
Assistance Projects
-
© Supported over 120 individuals in recruiting their own personal assistants in Wigan Borough. o Delivered behavioural support to families of disabled children and young people via peer groups, workshops, and outreach.
-
o Provided travel training for approximately 50 individuals to support independence. o Funded a youth development group through our reserves, helping young people build independence skills. o Hosted a community café, sensory rooms, and a range of community groups, promoting skill-building, social connection, and volunteering.
-
o Offered mediation services to help parents of disabled children resolve education-related disputes with the local authority.

Financial Review
Income and Expenditure Summary
The organisation remains financially healthy with sufficient reserves to manage short-term funding losses. Nonetheless, most resources are directed to frontline project delivery, making it challenging to afford administrative and management staffing.
Reserves and Financial Position
Our reserves policy will be revised in the coming year to reflect inflationary pressures, ensuring our restricted funds provide adequate financial stability.
Plans to Address Financial Needs
We aim to diversify income sources to reduce our reliance on grants, providing greater control over finances and planning. Our reserves may also be allocated to explore new projects that both align with our mission and have the potential to generate income.
Future Plans
Aims for the Next Financial Year
The end of our National Lottery grant in the coming year poses a major funding gap (approximately £85,000, including match funding from Wigan Council), However, income from our café and sensory room will help us tackle this challenge. Page 3 ee —————
Embrace Wigan & Leigh Trustees' Report
Investment Policy and objectives
We continue to maintain enough funds to manage any contingencies. We also continue to invest a proportion of our reserves in fixed rate bonds, with a greater return than that of the bank reserve accounts, which can be liquidated without loss to capital element if the need arises.
Risk management
The trustees recognise their responsibility to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Governing document
The Charity is controlled by its governing document, Memorandum, and Articles of Association, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Small company provisions
This report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies’ regime under the Companies Act 2006.
Structure, governance and management
Objectives and policies
The charity faces financial risks including credit risk, cash flow risk, and liquidity risk. No speculative use of financial instruments is made.
Cash flow risk
Interest bearing assets and liabilities are held at fixed rate to ensure certainty of cash flows.
Credit risk
The charity’s primary financial assets are bank balances and trade debtors. These are mainly public sector or large charity partners, reducing overall credit risk. No doubtful debts were recorded during the year.
Liquidity risk
The trustees consider that sufficient funds are available for ongoing operations and future developments.
Restricted Funds
Restricted funds include unspent income from grants or contracts limited to specific activities. At present, no restricted funds are held.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors of Embrace Wigan & Leigh for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Embrace Wigan & Leigh
I report on the accounts ofthe charity for the year ended 28 February 2025 which are set out on pages 7 to 14.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales..
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
-
have not been met; or
-
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
