NOAH'S ARK CENTRE COMPAP4Y LIMITED BY GUARANTEE TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT ONCORPORATING THE DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (continued) YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 OBJECTIVES AND ACTivfEIES Noah's Ark Centrt, its Therapeutic and Money Advice Service, have been an activts presence in Calderdale for over 25 years. It provides a vital role in the commiinity. It continucs to promote self-worth, freedom from negative coping strategies, resilience and the potential for fulfilling relationships, employment, financial stability and ¢ornmunity involvement. This is done ihrough our coui)sell&ng teams covering adults, young pcoplc. children and families and increasingl}, through our efficient and ¢ffc¢tive money advice service. Our trustees meet on a regular basis to ensuty the objectives are being achieved and developed whilst maintaining a positive financial position. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE As we close another financial yeat and look forward to the next it is our opportunity once again to highlight and acknowledge the continued work that our small but very significant charity undertakes. It is also a chance to thank all the funders and those individuals who* generosity enables our work to continue. Specifi¢ally,1&st year we received notification that we were a benefT¢iary of a legacy donated by a Founding supporter of Noah's Ark. This unexpected gift has enabled us to focus on our building and do some much needed improvemcnts. To this end we have relurbished and updated two offices, and work is ongoing in other aTeas Éo improve and repair the fabric of the building including very necessary roof repairs. There are also plans to redecorate and Tefurbish the coun5elling rooms and improve the entrance to the building, providing a welcome area and much needed ext desk space. These changes will enhance the experkellce of those visiting our charity. We are very grateful to be able to und¢rtake th¢se improvements and invest in the working environment for thc staff and volunteers and make the general entrance to the centre more client friendly. We are very grateful for this gift and express our sincere thanks to the family. It is being used as an investment for the future for the work to continue. Each year we reflect on the achievements and acknowledge the consistent delivery of both elements of our service, that of Counselling and Money Advice. The coiinselling service continues to be central to the support provided to people in the Halifax area Covering adults, young people and children, in addition the service extends in some circumstances, to pantS/caLyrS of some attending counselling, enabling a more 'rounded' support. Thes¢ embedded seNices are accessed at the centre, in other community settings and across primary and secondary s¢hools in Calderdale. Counselling with Noah's Ark has long been known for providing long term contracts of counselling however in balance with this services in school and in the community for young people have over the last year been providing increasingly more 'single session therapy, or also known as 'one session al a time, counsclling to meet the demands for the service and to provid¢ more flexibility and responsiveness io these Gounselling provisions.
NOAH'S ARK CENTRE COLIIPAIYY LIMvfED BY GUARANTEE TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT (INCORPORATING THE DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (contiiiued) YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 We were very relieved to hear in late De¢cmber 2025 that Ihe contract for tlie newest of our servic¢s, the Integrated Wellbeing Service (15-25 years) was betng extended and funded by the Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC) until April 2027. Giv¢n that alm05t 300 young people have accessed ¢ounselling and other support froin this service since its start. tliis was very welcome news for the leam as the outcomes and feedback from the service users have been extremely positive. Real stories of client journ¢ys and professiollal collaknrations witliin this new integrated s¢rYic¢ will be available to read shortly at Noah's Ark Services - Inte rated Wellbein Serviccs.. Communi Partners The service supports the integration of Noah's Ark's therapeutic and money advice services, as well as promoting the need to approach good mental health from a holistic perspective. The servi¢e has meanl thai Noali's Ark has started delivei'ing more wellbeing interventions related to physi¢al a¢tivity and nutrition. namely walking and cooking groups, and in doing this have fonned new and strong collaborations with other ¢ommuniLy organisations to support young. people who are not in the mainstream with their wellbeing. Collaborative working has been key to the suc£ess of this.service, and we are grat¢ful for this and look forward to streDgEhenrng and building fuither Collaboralions with this service. Alosa has been involved over the last year in the d¢velopment and execution of the local collaborative partnership Calderdale Youth Collective, which brings together organi5atioiis working with and foi- youn(r people aged I1-25yrs, and is co-vice chair and member of theii. executive group on behalf of Noah's Ark Centre. None of our services could thrive without the commitment and dcdication of our staff and volunteers, who continue to be managed by Andrew Sykes (Money Advice Manager) and Alosa Kaimaeuata (Therdpeutic Services Manager). We currently have 40 volunteer counsellors across the services who continue to be reci'uited from local universities and ¢olleges. The relationships between Noali's Ark and these educational institutions remain highly valued by all parties and provide a mutually beneficial partnership. It is with pride to learn that the therapeutic service h&s fed into a national evaluation of all early support hubs for I1-25yr olds for the DHSC, run by the NIHR Mental Health Policy Research Unity providing evidence and insight to the positive support and impact.of counsellin(J services for this age group. This has required commitment and dedication lo detail from all staff involved. We look forward to reading the findings in a report that is due to come out iii the summer of 2026. The benefits of the CORE.N¢t system, which wa5 irnplemenled in 2023. has proved to be key to recording, repurting and managing of all interventions with service users, and feeding into this report and ensurin¥ Noah's Ark remains on par with oth¢rs the sector. An incredibly important aspect of the work of the counsclling teams. and particularly those staff and volunteers who go into schools, is that of providing essential support at times of unexpected and serious events. il is in such difficult circumstances that Noah's Ark is called upon lo help students and staff. The trustees are immensely proiid that this important work can be provided by the teams, and we thank all those involved who undertake to do this challenging tasL The couns¢lling team continue to share best practice and upskill not only our own team of staff and volunteers but many across Calderdale and beyond who wish to develop their practice.

It) our 2025 report it was highlighted that tlie Money Advice Sei'vice had been nominated for a CSJ Award (Centre foi- Social Justice) which were being awarded in November 2025. Whilst our team did not win an award, to be one of eleven sliortlisted charities in the country was a significant achi¢vcment. The award ceremony provided an opportunity to see the work of oilier charities and raise tlie profile of Noah's Ark to others in the charit}, s¢¢tor. We wait to see what may come of iiew connections made, and COngralatIonS to Andrew and his team for being in the ix on a national level, this really is worthy of praisel The day-lo-day work of the Money Advi¢e team continues unabated. Individiials are helped when they are at theil lowest ebb through the process of debt management and learning new skills to understand money, choices, wants and needs. Absolutely fundamcnlal in helping to make positive personal change is attending a budget management course. Personal change and improved practical financial literacy, foiTn the fabric ofsocielyy but, which if not learnt, fonns patterns of b¢haviour which can impact entire families negatively. The success of the unique COLirse, 'Budget Like a Boss, written and updated regularly by ihe team, educates users of the service irk the lundamentals of rnoney management and iinderstanding. Whilst th¢ immediate relief of lifting a finaiicial burden is great, the greater benefil is gained by educating for the future. There are sotne wonderful testimonie5 to the impact of this whol¢ process. Looking at this accounting period, 1.10.24 to 30.9.25, these are highlights of each element of the Money Advice Service: Debt advi¢e- the money advice team received over 650 referra15 for complex d¢bt advice and cotnpleted 347 Debt Relref Orders dealing with over £5,300,000 of unmanageable debt. This project continues to be one of the most successful of its type in the UK. In the last l O years our small team has helped over 2,500 Calderdale families become debt free, dealing with over £35,000,000 of problem debt. Benefits advice - In October 2024 we launched a new benefits advice service to meet the increasingly complex needs of our client group. The service received 138 referrals during the accounting period and deliver¢d 360 appointments. Budget Like a Boss.1 ! !! _ the IoT]g-tern] partnership with Calderdale Adult Leaming continued and we delivered 18 budgeting cuurses. In the last 5+ years w¢'ve completed dround 140 courses, delivering it to hundredg of Calderdale families and individuals. Food support- Our money advice tcam has led the way in Calderdale in the provision of suilable and appropriate food support. We do not support the common 'food bank, model, which often does little to understand why individuals are food insecure. Instead, we've pioneered a model that always asks why a person is unable to feed themselves because then we can understand the issues and work with them to address them. Glasspool grants- Our partnership with the Glasspool trust has entered its s¢¢ond year and has bccome a very important part of our service delivery. During the accounting period we received 525 requests for a small grant or carpet5. This included tequest for: Washing machines- 100 Fridge freezers - 57

The project lias provided c&rpels lu ai'uuiid 600 Calderdale families since its incepti(Trn and in the last y¢ar we received 343 requests for support with carpeting. In the suinmer of 2025. we mov¥d into bigger premises to take advaiitage of an offer of over 500 rolls of surplus carpet stock. Alongside our work with Headlam, our partnership with ACTS435 continues. They supported us with amund £37,000 of donations to help cover the cost of fitting carpets. The project featured again on national television app¢arillg on BBC One in September 2025. This level of service to the local community is unparalleled and unique within Calderdale. Specifically, the support from Mercado in providing end roll¥ uf Larpet, which would otherwis¢ have gon¢ to landfill. and as these figures show is a significant benefit to households in the i'ental sector (both social and private landlords) seeking support from Noah's Ark. The result of this carpet project not only improves the quality of family life but saves energy costs for those Fatnilies as carpets insulate and help to keep properties warm. It is government policy that landlords are only required to cover kitch¢ns and bathrooms, no other rooms, this makes for cold draughty hom¢s which are difficult to keEp wami. The positive impact in having a carpeted home is immense and it has been acknolvledged that this feeds into tenants who have pride in where they live which fosters good relationships between renters and rentees. This is a recognised benefit froin this relatively new project. Another new area of work for the NAMAS has been that of holding a 'drop in, s¢rvic¢ at the Macmillan Unit of Calderdale Royal Hospital. Due to several referrals from staff at the unit, it became apparent that there are many cases of patients being unable to leavE hospitdil due to needs noi being met at their home. This has not only included household items listed above but specific benefit advice. Being able to 5UPPOrt people when they are faced with such difficulty is exactly what NAMAS can do and having a dedicated benefits specialRSt means that this support is given in a timely and compassionate way. Well done again to the team for continually adapting to new ways of workkng. Writing this report provides the opportunity to reflect and reyiew the work of Noah's Ark Centre, it is always a humbling experience to do so. It is important to realise that without this esscntial presence in Calderdale, our community would be lacking. As anyone involved in the charity sector knows, th¢ Ghallenge is always funding and the uncertaint), of whi¢h applications will be successful. It is a continual balance to maintain services whilst at the same time, not overstretching ourselves: being innovative. yet consistent. Both of our teams do this, and the trustees are immensely grateful to Alosa and Andrew for keeping this balance. On behalrof all the trustees I would like to thank Alosa YAnd Andreiv for their Commitment and leading their teams of staff and volunteers. I would like lo thank every member of staff too and for all the volunteers who choose to commit to our ¢harity. All of you provide an invaluable Service for Calderdale. To our funders, including other charities, companies and individuals who have b¢en mentioned in this report and those listed in the accounts we are very grateful ind¢cd.

The company has not made any grant Commitments of more than one year. All costs are allocated between the exp¢nditure categories olthe SOFA on a basts designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated dircctly. others are apportioned on an appropriate basis e.g. estimated usage as set out in note 8. Intangible Hssets Intangible assets are initially recorded at cos¢ and are siibsequently stated at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Any intangible assets ¢arried at revalued amounts, are recorded at the fair value at th¢ date of revaluation, as detemiined by reference to an active market, les8 any subsequent accumulated amortisation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination are only recognised separately from goodwill ivhen they arise from contractual or other legal rights, are separable. the expected future economlc benefits are probable and the cost or value can be measured reliably.

Where the carying value exceeds the recoverable amounl, lh¥ asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairn]ent testing. when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made OF the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is th¢ smallest identifiable group of a55els that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that12rgely independent of the cash inflows from othet. assets or groups of&ssets. For impaimient testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units tliat are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective ot"whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. Financial instrumtllts The company only has financial assets and ftnanctal liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially rècognised al transaction value and subsequently measur¢d at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans whi¢h are subsequently measured at ainortised cost using the effective interest method. 15
