Give Youth a Break

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 August 2022

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the charity commission relating to public benefit.

The principal object of the charity is the promotion and advancement of leisure and recreational activities for children and young people who would otherwise have difficulty accessing such facilities due to their social, economic or physical circumstances.

Public benefit

The Trustees confirm their compliance with the duty to have due regard to the Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The charity runs a social youth club for socially excluded children and young people, aiming to provide them with extra-curricular, cultural and recreational activities as well as therapy where necessary. Weekly sessions are held at a local school, with larger events taking place throughout the year. These include music and drama evenings, inspirational speakers, recreational trips, festive meals, exhibitions and competitions.

The group leaders as well as the club director are all volunteers. The trustees wish to thank all the volunteers for their dedication and enthusiasm.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

The charity's income is comprised mainly of voluntary donations from individuals and other charitable organisations.

Reserves policy

The charity does not maintain a reserves policy, as reserves are utilised when they become available, at the trustees' discretion. The present level of funding is adequate to support the continuation of its objectives and the trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory.

FUTURE PLANS

There are no significant future developments to report.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

Decision making

The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.

Induction and training of new trustees

It is not the intention of the charity to appoint any new trustees. Should the situation change in the future, the trustees will apply suitable recruitment, induction and training procedures.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Give Youth a Break

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Give Youth a Break

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Give Youth a Break (the Trust) for the year ended 31 August 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

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.
