Here is my servant, whom | uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; | have put my spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations. He will not cry or lift up his voice or make it heard in the street; a bruised reed he will not break, and a dimly burning wick he will not quench; he will faithfully bring forth justice. He will not grow faint or be crushed until he has established justice in the earth. [Isaiah 42]

2. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
2.1. Achievements and performance
Just42 has met the objectives, as defined our Memorandum and Articles of Association, during 2022/2023 in the following ways:
To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the statement of beliefs:
We have continued running our 5 children’s clubs in Bawdsey, Kyson, St Mary’s, Sandlings and Orford primary schools. We were able to run 157 weekly sessions and met with about 150 children in total. We also offered holiday club days at Easter in Hollesley and then during the Christmas break in Woodbridge, as well as a Messy Church session in Sutton Heath. These extra days were attended by 55 children.
Our Christian union lunchtimes offered an opportunity for a group of young people in Farlingaye High School the chance to meet up during their school day. This was attended by 16 different young people over 59 sessions throughout the year.
We were invited to take part in the Spirituality Conference for year 10 students at Kesgrave High School. We delivered an introduction to Spirituality to the whole year group of 300 students, then 40 young people signed up to an optional workshop on Christianity.
To provide facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation for young people:
Just42 run a number of recreation projects for young people. We provide youth clubs in 4 rural villages — Sutton Heath, Alderton, Grundisburgh and Hollesley. We offered youth clubs at each of the 4 village halls for the whole year other than in Sutton Heath, where it was decided to close the club after the Autumn term due to the low number of young people attending. We were able to offer a total of 103 sessions and our Youth Workers had contact with about 63 young people. The youth clubs offer a wide range of activities including sports, games, lots of different crafts and cooking.
We also offered a seaside themed activity day during the Summer holidays in Hollesley which was attended by 15 children and young people.
Following the results of a survey of young people at Farlingaye High school we started a new project during lunchtimes at Farlingaye and Kesgrave High schools this year. The sessions offered a Creative drop in space for young people that struggle during the long breaks at school, they find a safe space, someone to talk to and the opportunity to take part in craft activities. We ran 57 sessions which were attended by 58 different young people.
During the Summer holidays we ran 5 sessions that young people could sign up for offering a different craft activity each week. This was attended by 8 young people and they enjoyed learning lots of new skills, whilst meeting new young people and our team.

To advance education amongst young people:
We were delighted to offer a new Repair and Recycle project this year to local young people. We were joined by a few volunteers from Transition Woodbridge who worked alongside our team offering young people sessions on bike maintenance, electronics, woodwork and textiles. We offered 19 weekly sessions and met with 14 young people. We were pleased to be able to offer our babysitting course in Farlingaye High School again this year. It ran for 6 weeks and 4 young people completed the course, which included taking care of a virtual baby overnight.
To relieve persons, particularly young people, who are in conditions of need:
The main way in which we have met this objective is through our Compass mentoring project. We have actively mentored 110 young people over the course of the year and delivered 711 one to one sessions. We were really pleased to increase our team this year, welcoming a new Compass Mentoring and Schools work Coordinator to work in Kesgrave High School, leaving our established Coordinator to concentrate on Farlingaye High School. This is has meant that we have been able to increase our capacity to support more mentors and therefore more young people in both schools. The young people continue to be referred to us through their school and are then supported by our team of volunteers and staff who meet with them on a one to one basis. During the first term of the school year, our team supported the new year 7’s at Farlingaye High School, helping them find their way around and generally being an encouragement to them in those first few days at their new school. We were able to be present in school to meet them off the school buses during their first week and at their morning breaks during most of September.
During the Summer term we were able to visit 12 primary schools to deliver a full day with the year 6’s in each school. Through these sessions we introduced the young people to our team and helped them consider their transition to High School from a mental health and well-being perspective. We worked with 287 young people. The hope was to meet with most of those young people when they start school in Farlingaye in the new school year, helping them settle in during the first 2 weeks.
A number of children were able to attend our Christmas Holiday club day funded by the Holiday Activity and Food programme funding. We were able to offer these children a free place as they were eligible for free school meals. The day included a hot Christmas meal and the families were also given vouchers for a local butchers and greengrocers to help buy meals, helping to replace their free school meals during the school break.

Just42's vision statement is:
‘To make a positive impact on the lives of young people and children in rural Suffolk’.
Throughout our work this year we have made a positive impact on the lives of about 1275 different children and young people.
2.2. Chair’s Report
We would like to thank all Just42 staff and volunteers for their amazing efforts towards the work of Just42 in 2023.
For the coming year we will focus on developing the effectiveness and scope of our work within our existing teams. We continue to see the demand for our services and work increase.
Our finances continue to be in good shape, however we have a marked increase in our overall budget for 23/24 due to additional posts and inflation, we are prayerfully working hard to increase each and every revenue stream that we have.
With the ongoing cost of living crisis and the poor state of the UK public finances we believe that the charitable sector will be called upon more than ever to support our community.
We thank Bill Herbert (Trustee) and Bryan Macmanus (Lead session worker), who will be finishing their time with Just42 at the end of this year, for all their work and dedication to Just42 over many years and we wish them every blessing in their future plans. Bill has had a long association with Just42, right from the start in 2002, and we are very grateful for his wisdom and guidance over the years. Bryan has been a stalwart leading several different youth clubs in rural areas and his expertise and dedication will be very much missed.
Finally, thank you to all who supported the annual dinner in November whether attending or sponsoring. It was great evening, with much good cheer, and it raised an excellent sum (£15,750) for the charity.
As a board of trustees we continue to pray for the children and young people in our area and aim for the work of Just42 to shine the love of Jesus into their lives.

Overview
At the end of the financial year the excess of expenditure over income amounted to a loss of £20,072 (2022: surplus £14,033).
The total funds at that date were £120,643(2022: £140,715) of which £118,698 was unrestricted and £1,945 was restricted.

Investment policy
The trustees endeavour to maximise the return on all the funds at their disposal. Operating funds are held in an_ interest-bearing investment account with Monmouthshire Building Society and a current account with the Bank of Scotland. Trustees regularly consider alternative providers to ensure that the best return is secured whilst retaining sufficient fluidity to meet revenue demands.
Reserves policy
The trustees acknowledge with thanks all the generous donations and grants received from supporters. These funds are used in the provision of the objects of the charity; however, trustees consider it prudent to maintain a reserve of approximately £80,000 which represents up to 4.5 months committed expenditure.

4: ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- 1.1 Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, the Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities (FRS 102), the Companies Act 2006 and applicable accounting standards (FRS 102) except where detailed below. The financial statements have been prepared in pounds sterling and have been rounded to the nearest pound.
The accounts have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2011 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations, but which has since been withdrawn.
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.
Just42 is a public benefit entity.
Just42 is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales, and a registered charity. The registered office is 24 St John’s Hill, Woodbridge, IP12 1HS.
-
1.2 Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
-
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the charitable company qualifies as a small charitable company.
-
1.3. Going concern The charity has made a loss this year of £20,072 (2022: surplus £14,033). The unrestricted reserves are at the upper end of the target level; therefore, the trustees consider that the charity has adequate reserves to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
-
1.4 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes.

1:5 Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
Grants have been recognised in the Financial Statements in the period in which they are receivable and are reflected in restricted or unrestricted funds depending on the conditions attached to them.
- 1.6 Resources expended Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it related.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature to support them. Grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities once authorised and there is a resulting obligation for payment.
All costs allocated between expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis.
17 Fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £400 are capitalised and included at cost, including any incidental expenses of acquisition.
1.8 Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Equipment - 25% reducing balance Portacabins - 10% straight line.
1.9 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

- A: ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets Classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of activities from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as noncurrent liabilities. Creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.10 Operating leases Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income ona straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
1.11. Pensions The pension costs charged in the accounts represent the contributions payable by the charity during the year.
- 1.12 Taxation
The Association is a registered charity and its activities are exempt United Kingdom Income and Corporation Taxation.
-
1.13 Value Added Tax Value added tax is not recoverable by the charity, and as such is included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
-
1.14 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
15
JUST42 COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
Depreciation
