## **1 Objectives and Activities** 

The Purpose of the charity is: 

- The provision of social, educational, recreational and welfare services for children, young people and adults with a Learning Disability. 

- The provision of community support, supported living and outreach services to children, young people and adults with a Learning disability. 

- The provision of advice, education and support to families, carers and professionals and those living or working with children, young people and adults with a Learning disability. The provision of youth work and youth services. 

- The provision of community services and facilities. 

The charity meets its objectives by delivering the following activities: 

**Adult Social Care Services:** These are funded through contracts with local authorities, the primary purchaser being Lambeth Council. The largest of these services is the Outreach Service, which supports people with learning disabilities, Autism and mental health issues in their own homes and in the community. In addition we have two supported living projects, which offer accommodation and high-level specialist support and also two day services, one focusing on meeting the needs of adults with complex needs and Autism and the other a flexible service for people who live independently with support. 

We also run a number of projects designed to tackle loneliness, poor health and social isolation amongst adults with learning disabilities. These are funded through our own fundraising activities, grants and corporate sponsorship. Projects include a weekly allotment gardening group. 

**Children and Young People's Service:** We run busy and popular youth clubs in the West Norwood locality in south Lambeth and within the Central Hill estate in Gypsy Hill. 

We offer mainstream youth activities, targeted and preventative youth work, homework clubs and specialist clubs for those with learning difficulties and Autism as well as our unique, integrated youth club. Rathbone also operate 'The Old Library' in West Norwood, which is home to our youth services and a community hub. 

## **2 Public Benefit** 

Our charitable activities are based on meeting the Objects as set out in the Memorandum of Association. 

Our **Vision** is: Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society Ltd is committed to supporting people with learning disabilities and young people to live safe, healthy and fulfilled lives.

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

Our **Mission** states that we do this by: 

- Promoting independence and life skills Supporting people to try new things Creating opportunities for people to come together 

Our **Values** are that we strive to be: 

- Quality 

- Trusted 

- Creative 

- Inclusive 

The charity delivers public benefit through the provision of the following services: 

## **Adult Services:** 

1. **Outreach and Community Support Service** - This, our largest service, supports and enables people to remain living in the community and reduces the need for individuals to enter residential care. This service works with eighty individuals each week and provides support to maintain and develop independence in the community setting. The support offered can vary significantly between individuals and each case is managed according to an individualised care plan agreed with the local authority or contract holder. Through this work, we seek to promote independence, tackle social isolation and keep people safe. 

2. **Without Walls** - This service is for people with severe and profound learning disabilities. It provides intensive support to people with complex and challenging behaviours. The aim of the support is to reduce challenging behaviours, enabling people to remain living at home in their home borough, and to transition these people into less intensive services, once they have effective behaviour support plans in place. 

3. **Rathbone Connect** - This service offers a mix of drop-in support sessions and flexible 1:1 home visits/support sessions. The people this team support are independent travellers, who usually have their own tenancy, but may have fluctuating support needs, be hard to engage with, or lead chaotic lifestyles. The team have the flexibility to be very responsive, enabling people who use the drop-in to phone up at short notice to request same day/next day support. 

4. **Supported Living** - We have two projects. These provide individually tailored packages to individuals with high support needs who live within shared homes in the community. The charity also owns and operates one of these properties under HMO regulation. These projects are delivered with a strong emphasis on promoting the independence and community participation of the people who live in them.

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

One of these teams support people with Autism/moderate to severe learning disabilities, the other team support people with mild to moderate learning disabilities, who are independent travellers and are potentially able to develop independent living skills in order to transition to more independent living. 

5. **Gardening Group** - the group have weekly sessions at their local allotment plot where they grow food to eat and to share. Up to 12 beneficiaries attend and learn gardening skills, get some exercise and meet up with friends. The group also helps to maintain the garden at the charity's office building. 

6. **HIVE Cafe** - HIVE Cafe is situated within a learning disability hub created by Lambeth Council. The cafe was established to provide learning and paid employment opportunities for young people with learning disabilities who wish to go on to a career in the hospitality and catering industries. 

7. **Adult Social and Educational Groups** - All of these activities provide education and learning in a relaxed and safe setting, but besides this, they provide a valuable day out which helps towards relieving the social isolation experienced by many people with learning disabilities who live alone. 

8. **Regulatory Framework** - The charity is registered with the Care Quality Commission under the Domiciliary Care Regulations & Standards and is inspected in line with Care Quality Commission ratings timescales. Following the most recent inspection, the service maintained a 'Good' rating. 

## **Children and Young People's Services:** 

- **Open Access Youth Clubs** - We operate these clubs three nights each week, across two sites at Knights Hill and Central Hill. We have places for up to 40 beneficiaries each session. We offer a range of services and projects, many of which are grant specific, time limited and change over time. The 'core' activities, which are maintained on an ongoing basis, have a high emphasis on co-production. Throughout the service, children and young people are supported to learn to speak up, take part and contribute to their project. 

- **Learning Disability Youth Work** - We offer a specialist learning disability youth club with assisted transport places for the most vulnerable young people; we have an inclusive evening for mainstream young people and those with learning disabilities. In addition, the specialist learning disability youth service activities offer respite to carers and families whilst club activities are taking place and especially during residential and holiday schemes.

**Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society Ltd** 

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

- **Inspiring Learning** - This project was established as a more targeted intervention than our previous Homework Club. The project matches appropriately skilled or qualified volunteer 'learning mentors' to young people struggling with school work, homework or preparing for GCSEs. Young people can self-refer, but the majority of them are referred though partnerships we have with most of the local schools. 

- **Targeted Interventions** - These are programmes and projects established to deliver outcomes in relation to specific identified issues, examples include Violence Reduction, Knife Crime Prevention and Stronger Minds (an accredited mental health resilience programme). 

- **Employment Hub-** The Hub provides careers advice and guidance to those to those up to 30 years old with seeking employment and removing barriers to work. 

- **Reward and Recognition** - We offer a number of different ways of recognising young people's achievement, which is an important part of our work building on self-confidence and self-esteem. These include accreditation schemes, certification schemes and external programmes such as the Jack Petchey awards. 

- **The Old Library** - This is home to our youth services and operates as a local community hub. The building is used by a number of local groups both as offices and for community activities. Leased from Lambeth Council, Rathbone needs to raise income from the hire of offices and rooms to pay for the maintenance of the building. 

## **Public Benefit** 

- **Advice, Education, Guidance and Support** - These are delivered through our services and through events and community activities. We offer advice and support to individuals, parents, carers, families and other professionals. 

- **Community Participation** - The charity has been established within our local community for 59 years and is well known to local residents and businesses. We take part in local community activities and forums and work closely with local authority as a service provider and active partner within the Lambeth learning disability community. The charity contributes to the local economy by providing a range of employment and volunteering opportunities and positively promotes the employment of disabled people by ensuring we have a number of posts available specifically for people with learning disabilities.

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

- **Co-Production** - During the year, we continued to implement the values of co-production throughout our planning and processes. Now forming a key part of our strategy, it is our intention to use co-production principles to put children and young people and adults with learning disabilities at the heart of our approach. 

- **Measuring Success** - We do this annually through Customer & Staff Satisfaction Surveys. We maintain records of previous years and report on year to year comparisons. Where areas are identified for improvement or development, these are delivered through our management teams and if organisational change is required, through our annual Operational Plan. Compliance with CQC regulations and standards is measured through the CQC inspection process. In accordance with CQC, Health & Safety and our own Quality Assurance requirements, we carry out a programme of unannounced Spot Checks on service provision. Reports on these are fed back through management meetings into our continuous improvement process. Our youth service is currently working to regain the London Youth Quality Mark. 

- **Measuring Outcomes** - In order to improve our evidence base of how effectively our youth services achieve our planned outcomes, during this year we continued to use our tailored Outcomes Measurement tool validated by The Centre for Youth Impact. We have also invested in a software programme to monitor and evidence all of our youth service delivery activities. 

- **Volunteers** - The Board of Trustees had 6 members during the year. Across the organisation, we benefitted from a further 24 volunteers in roles such as office support, adult groups, youth mentoring (Inspiring Learning) and youth work. The charity recognises the benefit of volunteers to our work and their contribution allows us to extend our projects to additional beneficiaries, which in turn makes resources stretch further. 

- The Trustees confirm that they have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

## **Report and financial statements** 

**For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **3 Achievements and Performance** 

- The charity continued to deliver its Objectives in accordance with its Vision, Mission and Values. 

- The main charity objective for the year was to continue to maintain the existing service delivery, quality and beneficiary levels. 

- Performance - Both the Adults and Children & Young People's services and projects performed well. The charity was satisfied that the services were delivered well, safely and to the quality and regulatory standards required. 

- The Outreach & Community Support Service maintained its Care Quality Commission 'Good' rating. 

- Our Children & Young People's Service is currently being assessed to regain London Youth's quality assurance programme The Youth Quality Mark'. 

- Enhancing Capacity Through Technology - Throughout the year, the Senior Management Team continued the implementation of our 'digital transformation' programme. All of the organisations work processes began the move to cloud-based IT systems and 'app' based technology. This strive towards a paperless organisation will see a more efficient, streamlined back office, provide enhanced care and support monitoring and recording across all projects and services. Our financial processes, accuracy and efficiency have improved and become more streamlined due to the better integration of systems. 

## **4 Financial Review** 

- The financial results for 2023-2024 shown on the Statement of Financial Activities show that overall in the year the charity has had an increase (8%) in income from £2,245,312 (31 March 2023) to £2,423,906 (31 March 2024), an increase of £178,594. 

- Our costs also increased in 2023-2024 by 4%, totalling £2,306,798 (2022-2023: £2,215,069), a decrease of £91,729. The decrease in costs was proportionate to the increase in income, largely due to the increase in grant income.

**Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society Ltd** 

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

- Grant income in 2023-2024 was higher than projected mostly related to new grants and increase in outreach service income. The overall result for the year is a surplus of£ 117,108 (2022-2023 (£30,243)). 

## **Reserves Policy** 

- The Trustees have reviewed the charity's needs for reserves in line with the guidance issued by the Charity Commission and produced a reserves policy which requires reserves be developed to a reasonable level to ensure the charity can run efficiently and meet the needs of the beneficiaries and the core activities could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. 

- The value of these free reserves should be three months operating costs. 75% of the reserves should be maintained in a readily realisable form - a bank account without access restrictions. 

- At 31 March 2024, our total reserves were £739,369. Our readily realisable reserves are £306,658 which falls below our reserves policy. The organisation will budget to build up the reserves by £30,000 a year which is a realistic and sustainable figure for the charity.

## **Report and financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **Principal Risks and Uncertainties** 

- **Cost Increases** - A major concern are the risks presented by the continuing cost of living crisis, energy costs and inflation. The charity continues to address these uncertainties through careful forward planning and a fundraising strategy to underpin the organisation's sustainability. The main challenge we faced throughout the year was maintaining service delivery within budget due to the escalation in overhead and staffing costs. 

- **Adult Social Care** - An ongoing uncertainty is our ability to be able to fund the essential London Living Wage for our employees. We are heavily reliant on the local authority being able to uplift their contract fees annually to support the Living Wage increases and recognise the considerable financial pressures they face. 

- **Fundraising** - The risks to the Children and Young People's side of the organisation are in relation to our ability to maintain sufficient income from fundraising and grant making trusts to keep the services and projects running. To address this risk we retain the support of a professional fundraiser and maintain a fundraising pipeline and strategy. During the year we experienced challenges reaching our fundraising targets due to enhanced competition in the sector and the fact that our income is above the eligibility threshold for a number of funders. 

## **5 Future Plans** 

- **Adult Social Care** - We will continue to strengthen the existing core services and build our organisational sustainability and resilience. This will include a focus on maintaining the quality of service delivery and our 'good' CQC rating which is important for our business reputation. We will continue to consider options for the future of our Supported Living service, which is based in the only building owned by the charity. 

- **Children and Young People's Services** - As above, the future plans focus on making the services and projects as sustainable as possible. The charity is working to increase its capacity for the essential activities of fundraising and recruiting and managing volunteers to enable this. 

- **Project Development** - The year ahead will focus on developing the HIVE Cafe, bringing it into profit and increasing the scope to create paid employment for people with learning disabilities. 

- **Strategy** - During the year, the Trustees approved a strategy which focusses on maintaining quality, developing co-production and sustainability:

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF LAMBETH ELFRIDA RATHBONE SOCIETY** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2024 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended; 

been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

```



## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

information given in the Trustees' Report, which includes the Directors' Report prepared for the purposes of company law for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

the Directors' Report included within the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; 

financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 

disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; 

have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

```

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial 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 misstatement 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: 

We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the charity and the industry in which it operates, and considered the risk of acts by the charity that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. 

We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. 

We focused on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. Our tests included agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management. 

We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

**Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society Notes to the financial statements** 

**Year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period. 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue· grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor's intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. 

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met. 

## **Donations of gifts, services and facilities** 

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to the trustees' annual report for more information about their contribution. 

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

## **Interest receivable** 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund. 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.

**Lambeth Elfrida Rathbone Society Notes to the financial statements** 

**Year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

Costs of raising funds relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose 

- **Expenditure on charitable activities** includes the costs of delivering seNices, undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs. 

Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading 

## **Allocation of support costs** 

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the basis which are an estimate, based on staff cost, of the amount attributable to each activity. 

Where information about the aims, objectives and projects of the charity is provided to potential beneficiaries, the costs associated with this publicity are allocated to charitable expenditure. 

Where such information about the aims, objectives and projects of the charity is also provided to potential donors, activity costs are apportioned between fundraising and charitable activities on the basis of area of literature occupied by each activity. 

## **Operating leases** 

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £550. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use. 

No depreciation charge on the building is made on the grounds that it would be immaterial because the estimated remaining useful economic life is expected to be more than 50 years. 

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows: 

Fixture and fittings Over 10 years Office equipment Over 3 years Minibus 25% Reducing balance 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Cashatbankandinhand** 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. Cash balances exclude any funds held on behalf of seNice users. 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **Pensions** 

The charity operates a stakeholder pension scheme.
