accommodation for those in necessitous circumstances with particular regard to those who are affected by addiction
to drugs and alcohol misuse.. In the furtherance of these objects the charity provides suitable accommodation,
counselling, education, support and information to drug and alcohol misusers, together with their friends and relatives.
The charity also promotes training and research into the dangers arising from the habitual or other uses of drugs and
alcohol. In addition, the charity promotes and provides the development of new facilities pertaining io the treatment
and rehabilitation of drug and alcohol misusers and prevenllon of drug and alcohol misuse.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charlty Commission In deciding what activities the
charity should undertake. In particular the trustees Consider how planned activities will contrlbute to its aims and
objectives.
The charity's activities deliver public benefit as follows..
Bosence Farm is a residential substance misuse treatment service, registered with the Care Quality Commission.
The charity currently offers discrete services.. Bosence Rehab and Bosence Detox. These services are
supported by our horticultural and volunteer programmes. The former Young Person's service ran for just over 3
years, and was closed at the start of Covid in order to use the building to quarantine new admissions for the adult
detoxlslabilisation service. The charity has now changed the layout of the interior of the building lo ensure it offers
greatesl flexibility It has 5 single rooms with en-suite bathrooms, its own kitchen, and clinical suite. so can be
operated as a wing of the main detoxlstabilisalion unil, as additional accommodation for either service, or
Completely discretely, allowing us to use it flexibly to address the greatest need at that time.
Bosence Rehab
Bosence Rehab supports those who have successfully detoxed from any substance and are in recovery from alcohol
andlor drug dependency. The average stay at Bosence Rehab is usually 12 weeks, although a number of people are
granted additional funding as part of the review process which is nonnally at the half way point of rehab treatment.
The service provides residential treatment for up to 21 individuals. This capacity is based on the flexible use of our
East Wing annex, which can be used for either rehabilitation or detoxification. The Rehabilitation unit itself has 16
bedrooms, including one en-suite, more accessible room, designed for an individual with reduced mobility-
The community offers those choosing to work a 12 Step programme a safe and tranquil environment to both begin
and enhance personal recovery. Addilionally. Bosence Rehab integrates a trauma-informed approach, guided by the
Compassion Inquiry training developed by Dr. Gabor Maté. This approach focuses on understanding and addressing
the underlying trauma that often contributes to addiction, empowering individuals to achieve personal goals and live
independently without resorting to alcohol or dwgs. Bosence Rehab offers a wide range of skill development,
including life-skills, resettlement and afterca￿ support. All elements are aimed at empowering individuals to achieve
personal goals and live independently, without the need to resort to alcohol or drugs, by the time they leave. There is
also an opportunity for those who have been through treatment to come back and volunteer where appropriate.
During the 2024125 financial year, we provided 100 episodes of treatment (g2 in 2023124). Of the g6 peoplg who left
the service in the period, 52 completed treatment. This represents a successful completlon rate of 54.16°/o compared
to 64.100/0 in the previous year. Outcom8s of service users completing their course of treatment have reduced this
year as we have seen an increase in people being referred with complexities including greater mental health issues
however we are continuing to analyse this and understsnd the reasons to help us improve and attain better
completion rates for service users in the coming years.

TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS, REPORn (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Average occupancy for the full year remained constant at 16.16 compared with 16.18 (the average number of service
users in Rehab per day) in the previous year. Demand and referral levels have remained high, although historically
their predictability is dependent on many factors, including the availability of funds. Our Business Development
Managef has been tendering for business around the UK and this has led to an increase in out of county and private
referrals, New Stskeholders in the last year include: Halton Integrated Recovery Service, CGL Nuneaton,
Cambridgeshire CGL, Wear Recovery Sunderland and Reading CGL
Bosence Detox
Bosènce Detox is a 16-bed Inpatient unlt. expandable to 21 beds using thè east wing annex flexibly, providing
detoxificats'on, stsbilisation, and 8ssessment for drug and alcohol addiction since May 2010. The average stay is
around three weeks dependlng on the substances, though som& service users may stsy up to six weeks before
moving on to residential rehab or returning to the community. In 2024125, 345 episodes of treatment were delivered
1291 in 2023124,. 271 in 20221231, with 309 discharges and 280 successful completions-
completion rate of 90.610
(up from 85.970/0 the previous yearl. The complexity of service users, needs on admission continue8 to increase.
The young person's service, closed in March 2020, now provides en-suite rooms flexibly used to increase occupancy
across Detox and Rehab. A review of admissions processes and a restructure of the referral management team have
Made our admissions more proactive. This, combined with nurses qualifying as Independent Nurse Prescribers,
has significantly increased ffexibility and awess. Although still evolvlng, these Improvements have already had a
positive impact on capacity and financial stability. The Board of Trustees continues to keep the potential re-opening
of the young person's service under review, subject to funding and need.
We commissioned a review of the psychosocial programme to better addre5S the needs of indivsduals in detox and to
ensure a research and evidence-based approach. The bespoke programme, introduced in May 2019, has been well
received and effective in building resilience post-treatment. In 2025, a Counselling Psychologist joined the team to
work with staff and service users to review and further develop the programme, ensuring it remains trauma-infomed,
person-centred, and responsive to increasing complexity.
Bosence Farm Community is an established and Integrated part of the wider Comwall treatment system and is now
becoming increasingly well known outside th8 county. Bosence Detox continues to progress towards its goal of
coming a centre of excellence and has invested in developing staff through training in Compassionate Inquiry. a
trauma-informed approach widely regarded as being at the forefront of innovative drug and alcohol treatment. A
member of staff who completed the full training is now coaching others on the team, supporting the integration of
Compassionate Inquiry methods into day-tOThday practice. W@ continue to build on this foundation, with further training
and reflective practice to embed trauma-informed care across the service.
Bosence Horticultural Pro
ramme
The orchard garden is flourishing and year on year the yield of apples is increasing. The 2024 season Saw our first
batch of Bosence apple jul￿ produced with the help of The Kehelland Trust, who kindly pressed and bottled our
apples. This is a partnership we are keen to continue and possibly expand into jam making and possibly chutneys
too. The orchard garden provides opportunities to teach residents about fruit pruning, thinning and harvesting, pond
life and wildfiower and butterfly identification.
The 2024 growing season was a successful one wth the vegetable garden producing bountiful crops of root
vegetables, including potatoes, carrots and beetroot and plentiful harvests of greens, brassicas and alliums for much
of the aulumn and winter months. The polytunnels, which really are invaluable when it comes to producing both
summer and winter crops, yielded good crops of tomatoes, melons, sweelcom, cucumbers and peppers in the
summer. and a stesdy supply of lettuce, salad leaves and culinary herbs throughout the winter.
The benefits of applying copious amounts of organic manure. green waste compost and compost produced on-site to
the vegetable beds over the past five years has started to show with greater worm abundance, deeper and better
topsoil and improved crop health all apparent. The increased organic matter content of the soil also helps retain water
during dry weatherwhich over time should help reduce water usage.

Habitat mana
ement
Woodland managemenl work was carried out over the winter, including lots of strimming, undertaken to reduce
blackthorn and bramble to encourage bluebells and other woodland spring IIowers as well as to limit the spread of
impenetrable thicket. The result is a more biodiverse habitat which feels brighter, healthier and more inviting,
especially in the springtime when areas are carpeted with native bluebells and other native wildflowers. Owing to the
management of bramble and blackthom and the reduction of low-light levels through ivy removal, no l&ss than ten
wildflower species have increased in abundance considerably.
There are three wildlife cameras installed across the site. The footage is periodically shared with residents and forms
part of a wildlife identification and survey session. Roe deer are seen on a regular basis in the woods and meadow,
where earfy purple orchids are appearing in growing numbers each year.
The orchard garden and its pond support a rich flora and fauna which are used as an educational resource on a
regular basis, with sessions of pond dipping, botany, butterNy and bee identification all part of the RIN programme.
The beehives add another dimension to the gardens and allows for residents to leam some of the basics about
beekeeping and the 2024 season saw the first harvest of Bosence honey which was gifted to staff In their Christmas
hampers.
in Nature Pro
ramme
Our Recovery in Nature programme (RIN) is consislently well received by participants. The orfglnal Core of the
prograrnme run by our land manager Noah Puddifool Hall consists of ten differenl sessions. These are pond dipping,
herbal tea-making, nature observation and creative writing, botany, nature-inspired drawing. nature hunt, forest
bathing and mindfulness, fire, microscopy and wildlife identification and survey. Additional sessions are run by
coworkers, who deliver sessions ￿lce a week. There is also a weekly gardening session. All sessions are open to
residents from both the detox and rehab. The programme provides residents with the opportunity to get outside and
learn, be active and engage with the natural environmenl several times a week. Feedback tells us that the programme
both enriches the experience of participants time spent at Bosence and helps keep them in treatment.
Bosence Volunteer Pro
ramm
Our team of volunteers compliment the work of staff in various ways. Thirteen volunteers have either helped run or
led sessions themselves in activities including drawing, card-making, music, pottery, creative writing, storytelling,
wreath-making, mindfulness, gardening and RIN. Volunteer hours for the year 1st April 2024 to the end of March
2025 totalled 243.
Several ex-resldents have given their time as peer mentors at both the detox and rehab units over thé past year. We
have also recently welcomed a new volunteer gardener as part of our wider volunteer programme. Our ongoing
partnership with the Cornish clothing brand Seasalt continues to thrive, with staff joining us for volunteer days
throughout the year, including during the festive sea50n. This partnership adds a valued dimension to our volunteer
offering, and feedback from Seasalt staff about their experience has been OVe￿he[mingIY positive.
Care Qualit Commission
coc
Ratin
Our services received their first rated inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in December 2018 and
were rated "Good. following a positive inspection. Although we have not been re-inspected since, we continue to
use the CQC'S structured assessment frarnework to guide our ongoing quality improvement work. While national
delays to inspections have been reported due to changes within the CQC, we remain committed to strengthening
our service and aspire to achieve an °Oulstanding' rating in the future.
As part of our strategi¢ development, we are reviewing our residential rehab facilities with the aim of maximising
available space, reducing wailing times, and ensuring that accommodation is accessible, comfortable and fit for
purpose. Proposed changes to the Sanctuary building form part of this wider review, which will be developed with
input from staff.

Flnancial review
The financial activities and results for the year are shown in the Statement of financial activities.
Goin
Concern
The trustees have discussed their abllity to confirm that the charity is a going GOn￿M for the next 12 months. We
report Ihal, in our opinion..
there continues to be strong and consistent demand for the services we provide-
the free and operating reserves are sufficient to provide resilience against unforeseen financial and
operational challenges., and
we are not aware of any current circumstances or risks that would threaten the organisation's abilty to
continue operating.
Therefore, subject to no malerial unforeseen events occurring, the trustees have good reason to believe that the
charity will remain a going concem for the 12 months following the approval ofthis report.
Reserves
olic
The charity's reserves policy was initially set in January 2005 and included the creation of designated reserves,
namely, the 8osence Farm ReseN8 (for residents, accommodation and wholly represented by fixed assets) On an
annual basis the trustees consider and review the needs of the chanty and designate funds for specific future
purchases, services or projects. The prlority is to maximise the rehab redevelopment designated réserve in line with
the current strategic plan. In addition, they have also chosen to designate six months of operating costs to ensure
the continuity of the charity. The trustees review the designated funds regularly throughout the year.
The total funds of the charity at 31 March 2025 were £4,140,99912024'. £3,745,366). The amount of these funds
that were restricted and not available for the general purposes of the charity at 31 March 2025 were £1,742,942
(2024.. £1,769,787) Of the remaining reserves held, a total of £2,052,336 (2024: £1,568,244) have been designated
for various projects, as detailed in note 18. Funds th81 can only be realised by disposing of tangible fixed assets at
31 March 2025 amount to £1,731,052 of restricted funds and £565,013 of unrestricted funds.
At 31 March 2025, the amount of reserves the charity held that were not restricted, designated or represented by
fixed assets were £162.67712024.' £208,450). Thè aim of the charity is to maintain a free reserve figure of around
£200,000 to mitigate the risk against unforeseen circumstances with any reserves in excess of this figure being
transferred to the rehab redevelopment designated reserve.
Princi
al fundin
sources
The funding sources of the charity, in addition to non-recurring grant funding, are Cornwall Council through the
Complex Needs Support and Drug and Alcohol Action Team, income from private and out-of-county residents.
Fundraising continued through 2024-2025 and applications to extemal funding bodies, charitable trusts and
foundations continued for funds to support existing core work and capital developments.
The fundraising strategy will be maintained and developed through the coming yearwith a clear focus on our existing
sources of support and a strong emphasis on building long-term relationships with funders and developing effective
methods of communication with supporters and individual donors.

TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The charity has received several generous bequest5 from the families of former servic8 users, for which the charity
is sincerely indebted.
We have also been grateful over the past 12 months for donations from individuals of a new sofa for the farmhouse,
a new TV and printer and new furniture from Cornwall Voluntary Sector Forum for the Board Room.
Investment olic
The trustees have considered the most appropriate policy for investing funds and believe that the current
arrangements, of investing in low risk deposit-based accounts, are satisfadory. The charity has deposit accounts with
Santander, Saffron Building Society and a new 95-day notice deposit account with Lloyds Bank which earn monthly
interest. In addition, the charity holds the following savings accounts-.
A one-year fixed rate business saving account is held with Aldermore.
A 95 Day Notice Business Savings Account with Cambridge & Counties.
A 100 Day Notice Charity & TwstAccount with Shawbrook Bank
Rlsk assess
ent
The major risks to which the charity is exposed are regularly reviewed by the Trustees, and systems and procedures
are in place to manage those risks. Bosence maintains a comprehensive and active Business Risk Register, which is
regulady updated. New or evolving risks are added with appropriate mitigation plans, and significant updales are
routinely r8port8d at Board meetings to ensure strong oversight.
Two years ago, we strengthened our governance by establishing five Board sub-committees, each comprising
Trustees and members of the Senior Management Team. These sub-committees focus on key operational and
strategic areas, enabling more detailed oversight of risk and improved delivery of our Strstegic Plan. Each
subcommittee is linked to specific strategic inits'atives, with progress tracked through a coordinated Operational Plan
to ensure alignment across the organisalion. Looking ahead, we plan lo expand staff participalion in sub-committees
to ensure a wider range of voices inform how the charity develops.
A principal ongoing risk is the potential for reductions in funding from Cornwall and Plymouth local authoritlès, which
have historically been our main commissioners. This is managed through regular engagement be￿een senior
management, Trustees, and commissioners to malntaln open dialogue and plan ahead. At the sametime, we continue
to diversify our funding base.. the proportion of bed days filled by individuals from outside Cornwall has risen from
1 ,704 of 8,702 {19.580/0) in 2019120 to 6,325 of 10,922 (58.66 % ), with referrals from 65 local authorities over the last
five years.
To support this growth, our Business Development Manager works to broaden both statulory and private referral
pathways. His work has resulted in new contracts and continued diversrfication of our income. In line wth the current
10-year national drug strategy, now in its third year, we are also positioning Bosence to contribute to the national Sim
of increasing residential treatrnent placements from less than 20/0 to 50/0 of the treatment popul8tion over the next five
years.
Finally, to support long-term sustainability, we have a part-time Fundraiser to generale unrestrtcted income and attract
capital funding for development. We lake a cautious approach to budgeting.. only secured funding is included in the
annual plan, and grant income is never assumed.
Trustees and the various sub-committees closely monitor the charity's legal responsibilities to ensure they are met
while protecting its charitable assets and safeguarding vulnerable beneficiaries. The Board meets regularfy in person
to support the preparation and implementation of dynamic plans addressing future risks and opportunities. The
operational team has proven highly adaptable and creative, operating safely and effectively while anticipating and
responding to the changing landscape. Trustees scrutinise regular management accounts with revised forecasts and
closely monitor changing risks to meet the charity's challenges and support staff wellbeing.

Health & Safe
Health and safety continues to be a standing agenda item at all Board meetings and is a key ar8a of ongoing attention.
The organisab'on remains certified under ISO 45001, having successfully migrated from the original OHSAS
18001'.2007 standard in 2019. We maintain this accreditation through regular internal audits and annual external
reviews,. our most recent extemal review took place in August 2024, with no non-conformances identified.
Sue Turk remainsthe Board's Health & Safety Champion. Operational responsibility continues to be led by Registered
Manager Samantha Collins, who is the designated Health & Safety Officer. Overall accountability rests with CEO Kate
Prosser. While Kate no longer holds a current Level 3 Health & Safety in the Workplace qualification, both Samantha
Collins and Central Services Manager Jackie Rushbrooke do. We are also planning for Sarah Glennie, a member of
the Central Services Health & Safety Committee who leads on implementing most committee actions, to complete
the same qualification within the next quarter.
The Health & Safety committe￿ha1red and run by staff was restructured in 2020 and continues to play a vital
role in maintaining high safety standards across the organisation. Samantha Collins currently chairs the committee.
We continue to engage the services of Peninsula, who provide quarterly site assessments, a dedicated advice
h8lpline, and access to Business Safe Online. whlch supports our internal systems with up-to-date guidance and
resour¢es.
Our ongoing commitment to health and safety is integral to ourwider strategic aims. As outlined in our Strategic Plan,
the safety. wellbeing, and individual needs of our residents are at the centre of our work. Ensuring that our services
are safe, compliant, and responsive is a key part of delivering on our mission to provide high quality, trauma-infomied
care.
Marketin
and Strate
ic Plan
We continue to implement our comprehensive marketing and business development strategy, aligned with the
objectives of our six-year Strategic Plan. This strategy includes detailed market analysis, dearly defined target
audiences, measurable KPIS, and an actionable plan for generating income from a range of sources, induding local
authority commissioning, corporate referrals, insurance providers, and private clients. The private market, in particular.
presents a growing opportunity for sustainable income diversification.
Work is underway to refresh all marketing materials, including updated brochures and timetsbles that reflect our
evolving trauma-informed practice, Recovery in Nature programme, and wellness offer. These materials are belng
designed to better communicate the breadth and depth of our therapeutic and clinical services, both to profession81
referrers and directly to potential service users and their families.
Our marketing approach is intentionally segmented, with targeted messaging developed for different audiences
including Integrated Care Boards {ICBs), public sector commissioners, Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs},
private individuals, and referring professionals in healthcare and social care.
Some marketing initiatives were temporarily paused during and immediately after the pandemic due to limited capacity
and sustained waiting lists. However, as occupancy levels have stabilised, we have resumed strategic roll-out,
including strengthening digital marketing, expanding our online pre*nce, and engaging new stakeholders through
outreach and sector events.
Our Business Development Manager is working closely with the CEO and Trustees to ensure that this strategy
remains responsive to market shifts, commissioning trends, and the national policy landscape, including the
govemment's 10-year drug strategy °From Harm to Hope.. Our strategic aims directly support this national agenda,
with a focus on delivering wodd-class treatment, rebuilding the professional workfor￿, and improving the integration
of services.
The charity's strategy is fundamentally centred on its residents, recognising each as an individual with unique
experiences, aspirations, and needs. Our mission is to understand these needs and provide safe. high-quality, and
accessible services that empower residents to achieve their full potential.
Our Strategic Plan focuses on six broad aims-.
Be a well-managed organisation". We prioritise staff care and first-class training, ensuring we are attr8¢tive
to commissioners through strong operational and financial performance. Our focus includes good
governance, excellent financial management, maintaining ISO and Health and Safety accredrtations. and
meeting Care Quality Commission (CQC) standards.

accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no
realistic altemative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibllltles for the audlt of the flnanclal 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 misststement 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.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-
compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following..
Obtainin9 an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on
those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements and operations-
Obtaining an understanding of the charity's policies and procedures on fraud fisks, including knowledge of
any actual, suspected or alleged fraud, and
Discussing among the engagement team how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and
any potential indicators of fraud through our knowledge and understanding of the company and our sector-
specific éxperience.
As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charity for
fraud We are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. As a result
of performing the above, we identified the following areas as those most likely to have an impact on the financial
statements.. health & safely, employment law, compliance with the UK Companies Act and Charities Act_

Making enquiries of management about any known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and
regulations and fraud,
Reviewing minutes of meetings of the board and senior management..
Reading correspondence with regulators.
ChalSenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their slgnificant accounting estimates-.
and
Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entrfes and other
adjustments for appropriateness.
Due to the inherent limitations of an audlt, there is an unavoidable risk that some material misststements in the
financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly plann8d and performed in accordance
with the ISAS {UKI. For instance, the further removed non-compliance is from the events and transactions reflected
in the financial statements, the less likely the auditor is to become aware of it or to recognise the non-compliance.
