## Statement of Trustee Responsibilities 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of Trustees and financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.) 

Company law requires trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which givea true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

## Risk Assessment 

Risks, both physical and relating to professional indemnity, are regularly reviewed and managed and minimised by our policies and the training given to staff and volunteers. We are covered by insurance policies organised by Home-Start UK and reviewed by us. All trustees, staff and volunteers have the current Enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service as required by their role. Any information disclosed is considered by the Personnel Committee which makes recommendations, without revealing the identity of the person concerned, to the Trustee Board which makes the final decision on their suitability to join Home-Start. 

## Objectives and Activities 

The aims and objectives of the charity which, in the opinion of the trustees, fall within the terms of Public Benefit in Section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 are: 

- e To safeguard, protect and preserve the good health both mental and physical of children and parents of children; 

- e To prevent cruelty to or maltreatment of children; e To relieve sickness, poverty and need amongst children and parents of children; e To promote the education of the public in better standards of childcare within the area of Kirklees and its environs. 

The trustees pay due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commissioners in deciding what activities Home-Start Kirklees should undertake. 

Home-Start Kirklees is a partner in Thriving Kirklees which provides health and well-being services for all those from pre-birth to age 19 or, if the young person is vulnerable up to age 24. Locala Community Partnerships is the contract lead of4 additional sub-contracted partners who each have an equal voice in decision-making and influencing the design and future development of joined up working to support those for whom the service is intended. 

Home-Start Kirklees is associated with Home-Start UK which provides help, advice, and a suitable ethos for the charity to work in. 

## Developments, Activities and Achievements 

Home-Start Kirklees continues to go from strength to strength. The move to Bates Mill in April 2022 has proved to be an excellent working environment. The streamlining of our administrative processes and the use of digital platforms is the focus of the next year. We have grown into our larger premises and now have 14 members of staff and 100 incredible volunteers (not including our trustees). The enthusiasm and commitment of staff is very much valued and appreciated. Our. volunteers are a huge asset, and our focus continues to be on recruiting and training new potential volunteers to increase our workforce capacity to support more families as demand for our services increases. 

| 

We now have a new ambitious 5-year strategic plan from April 2023. We were given valuable support in this by Lloyds Foundation who provided a consultant whose role was to facilitate and assist in agreeing a way forward whilst keeping us focused on the task ahead. The strategy looks to see us develop and expand, places emphasis on fundraising, marketing, and networking, all of which are vital to the future development and sustainability of Home-Start Kirklees. Our grants from the Tudor Trust, Lloyds Foundation, Henry Smith and Garfield Weston have continued to help us deliver 

6 



our core work. The Starting Well project, aimed to provide speech and language, school readiness support for BAME families has continued this year and the Henry Smith grant has been particularly useful in developing our telephone befriending service offer. This has now become a key part of our delivery. Even though face- to-face support has returned as our main method of family support, telephone befriending is an invaluable adjunct to this as is the expansion of peer group support sessions. 

The young parents service, where the emphasis is on peer support has continued to flourish and it is hoped that this will continue to be funded after the end of March 2024. 

The new National Lottery project funded for three years started in January 2023 and already has supported many families. We have continued to invest in school readiness and the one-off grants from one community have been essential in getting this off the ground and being able to offer ongoing support to children before they start at an early years setting/school. 

Home-Start Kirklees provides a unique and invaluable service to families in Kirklees and we aim via networking, marketing and fundraising to secure our future and continue to offer essential support to families. Although we are very happy with where we are, we are an ambitious organisation so we do not rest on our laurels and are committed to pushing forward in the forthcoming year to be able to support more families that reach out to us. 

We have also acquired renewal of our level 2 Quality for Health award which is testament to the high standards we set ourselves and the positive engagement and experience all stakeholders have with us. This assures us that we are delivering high quality services as part of the VCSE sector. 

## Review of the financial position of the Charity — Treasurer’s report 

## Income 

We had a total income of £611,526 - an 11% rise over the previous year. The Thriving Kirklees Partnership, delivering services on behalf of Kirklees, continues to be our major funder and accounts for £377,419. We have been successful in raising significant additional funds of £202,754 where specific thanks must go to the Charitable Trusts of: The Garfield Weston Foundation, The Henry Smith Charity, The Lloyds Bank Foundation, One Community, and the Tudor Trust who have between them contributed £172,694. 

## Funds 

Our funds are divided into three ‘pots’: Unrestricted, Designated and Restricted. At the end of March 2023 these ‘pots’ totalled £324,730 an 10% increase from last year. 

- e Unrestricted funds £135,041 We can spend the Unrestricted funds on any of our Charitable Objectives as directed by the Board of Trustees. 

- e Designated funds £173,368 

This year the Board of Trustees has resolved to include the following Designated sums: 

- e £54,128 - A fund to pay redundancy monies in the unlikely event that we have to close down or severely reduce the size of the charity due to reductions in donations and payments for 

7 



services. This is reviewed annually based on the staff in post, their salary and length of 

      - service. 

   - e £99,240 —A provision to maintain at least 10 weeks of operational costs to guard against any financial shocks — such as late donor payments or, if we must reduce our services, it gives us sufficient time to close them down with minimal impact on the families we support. 

   - e £20,000 —A provision to pay for our rent in the year 2025-26. Kirklees have donated a fund to pay our rent until the end of March 2025, but our lease runs to 2027. We are building a fund to ensure that we have sufficient monies for at least a six-month rental period to give us time to find another tenant if our income reduces significantly. This fund will be released back to the unrestricted reserves in 2025 if not needed. 

- e Restricted £16,321 Donors gave us these funds to spend on specific activities — such as school readiness and Tackling Children’s Poverty. 

## Expenses 

Our expenses in 2022-23 were £582,481 representing a 29% increase over 2021-22. We have been able to use the additional funds we received over the last two years to increase the level and volume of our services, and hence costs. The same level of growth may not be possible in the coming year as funding becomes more of a challenge. We will continue to monitor our forward income to ensure our expenses stay in line with income. 

## Policy on Reserves 

In the current climate and with more families needing help and being supported, the Board of Trustees feels it is prudent to hold 6 months reserves which includes designated funds to cover the charity in the eventuality of any unforeseen difficulties or in the worst case scenario, any eventual closure. This allows for time required to forward plan any staff re-structure, redundancies, reducing services and moving families to different means of support with external partners. 

## Retirement 

After this report, | am retiring as Treasurer and handing over to Andrew Smith, a Chartered Accountant with significant experience in both the Commercial and Charity Sectors. Having been Treasurer since 2016, | am pleased | can hand over the role of Treasurer into such capable hands. 

## David Mason - Treasurer 

| 

## Plans for future periods 

We have completed our strategic planning process and now have a new five-year plan to take us forward into 2028. Engagement with all stakeholders was key to establishing what the current pressures are on existing services and how we can support and contribute to continuing to meet the needs of families in Kirklees. We are ambitious to work with new stakeholders and to increase our network of contacts, so that new opportunities can be pursued to potentially increase our service offer and build new working partnerships. Our new plan was effective from April 2023 and work has already begun to develop key areas. We also converted to CIO status (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) and so we are no longer a registered company with Companies House but have retained our charitable status and are still regulated by charity law. 

8 



We already know that there is unmet need for our services and will continue efforts to raise funds to deliver our services to more families. Having supported 250 families in 2022-23, we are ambitious to increase our capacity and resources to help more families that reach out for support. In January 2023, we started a new 3-year project, funded by The National Lottery Community Fund that supports families who are experiencing loneliness and isolation within their communities. This project is targeted provision for those parents who will benefit from peer support and integration into local provision. The Business Development Committee has been influential in securing funding from charitable trusts to increase our workforce capacity and deliver different types of support. The committee will continue to work on a forward projection of growth and there will be investment of time in writing funding bids. 

We continue to rely heavily on volunteers and are pleased that we are continuing to develop the range of activities that potential volunteers can do. We will remain active in recruiting volunteers and have developed a more robust marketing plan that will support recruitment of new potential volunteers. We will continue to welcome volunteers with lived experience, who can share their skills with us and help us run a professional sustainable charitable business. We will seek volunteers from all parts of the community living in Kirklees, of all ages and welcome diversity. We were delighted that in November 2022 we were awarded our Quality for Health, Level 2 award for a further 3 years for the second time. The accreditation process provides a deep dive into the organisation, to reflect on everyday practice and helps us to feel proud that we are recognised as working to such a high standard in support of our families and their children. The quality mark instils confidence in our referrers to the service, our service users and is also attractive to any potential funders as it underpins the fact that we are a trustworthy, professional and ethically robust organisation. 

We will continue to work with our partners in Thriving Kirklees and others who support young families to make sure our service covers what is needed and parents can access and benefit from any additional help they need when they reach out. Innovation and transformation are key aspects of the partnership. We continue to make economies wherever possible and to utilise our resources in the best way possible that helps families. We will continue to seek funding from other sources including major charitable trusts to allow for new project work and new innovative ways of working.

## Acknowledgments 

Enormous thanks must go to everyone involved — to our incredibly hard-working and dedicated staff and volunteers, to our trustees who give so much of their time, and to our partners, funders and supporters. We value each one of you - without you none of this would be possible.
