Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 August 2022

The charity's main activities

The Play Facility provides a friendly, welcoming and safe environment for all children visiting a loved one in prison. This helps the child cope better with the stress and trauma associated with visiting a loved one in prison.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular play provision for children and young adults visiting a loved one in prison.

Achievements and performance

The Play Facility remained closed to all visitors and outside organisations including ourselves at the beginning of our new business year 1[st] September 2021 This was due to Covid -19 restrictions that the prison still had in place. During this time New Hall Kidz employees worked from home on administration duties, fund raising and preparing for when the time came that we could open again.

In May 2022 the governor of HMP & YOI New Hall allowed us to reopen the play facility during all domestic visits, which was fantastic news as the playworkers were able to resume working with the families and were able to re-engage with the visiting children once again.

To begin with the main visit’s hall was still restricted as there were Perspex screens in place to separate the residents from their loved ones. There was also limited seating and fewer visitors were allowed on each visit. The families were allowed one adult and two child visitors or two adults and one child. However, as the year progressed the screens were removed and the families were able to engage better with each other in the main visit’s hall.

During the sessions in the Play Facility on domestic visits the children have been able to come in and play with a wide range of equipment and participate in a variety of activities either on their own, with other children or the resident who they have come to visit. Having this time with their loved one to play and spend quality time with each other has helped them to re-bond, maintain their family ties, and create positive memories with each other.

Since we reopened we have seen many new children visiting their loved ones with only a small number of children that we knew pre-covid, still using our service. These children are the children of “Lifers” whose loved ones (Mum) are serving life sentences. Over the last few months, we have worked closely with the new and old families helping to make visits an enjoyable experience for the children and young people who are visiting their loved ones and it has been great to see the service almost back to normal once again.

Financial review

The net income for the year was £42,231, including net income of £929 on unrestricted funds and net income of £41,302 on restricted funds after transfers.

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £17,276.

In the Trustees' view, the reserves should provide the charity with adequate financial stability and the means for it to meet its charitable objectives for the foreseeable future.

New Hall Kidz Limited

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 August 2022

Reserves policy (continued)

The Trustees propose to maintain the charity’s reserves at a level which is at least equivalent to three months operational expenditure and have done so having regards to its manner of operation of likely funding streams. At 31 August 2022, unrestricted free reserves were equivalent to just over four months' expenditure.

The Trustees review the amount of reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil the charity’s continuing obligations at their finance meetings.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. 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;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

approved by the board of trustees on 12/4/2023
