10 Child Parliaments taught 410 children about their rights, mentored them via Whatsapp through the pandemic and supported them to advocate with their peers and communities.
80 Women’s Groups trained to realise their rights, as well as saving and small business loans, parenting and preventing domestic abuse, child marriage and trafficking.
Facilitated extensive trafficking and child marriage prevention work through classroom training, local events, Child Parliaments and Women’s Groups.
A rich variety of socially distanced celebrations and competitions continued this year for hundreds of children and local community members.
Supported two education centres for children on the Nepal border, in one of Bihar’s most renowned red light areas, providing tailoring lessons for 16 adolescent girls and basic education for 63 children.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
The education programme pivoted quickly and effectively to the delivery of small batch lessons throughout lockdown, enabling over 900 children to continue to learn and perform well in their end of year exams.
In addition to hundreds of local people being linked to health support, there were 324 successful applications for ration cards for returning migrant workers and local families, enabling government assistance through lockdown.
Women’s Groups directly increased the resilience of nearly 1,000 families throughout lockdown, inspiring 490 new membership applications from friends and neighbours.
30 children passed the eligibility test for the National Institute of Open Schooling and 60 were admitted to mainstream school.
As a result of widespread research, campaigning and tracking of trafficking cases through a new helpline, there has been a direct increase in community vigilance.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
- Continue to support the activism work in both urban and rural areas of Patna.
- - Develop monitoring and evaluation processes using digital tools.
- Further develop digital education components in existing schools.
Provide relief supplies to families affected by coronavirus.
“With the utmost resilience shown by our project staff and the community; we have been able to cover most portions of the planned syllabus in this reporting period. The conduct of classes was difficult and sometimes even impossible, yet with the cooperation of the teachers we were able to devise strategies to ensure regular learning by the children”.
**Renji, Programme Manager**
Child Parliaments grew in confidence, taking the lead in identifying vulnerable households for support, directly tackling rising domestic abuse, training communities on hygiene and handwashing and advocating with local authorities.

The children’s online communication platform ‘Moja Kids’ was set up with their own website, they helped to create videos about proper hand washing in the camps and we have taken the first steps in making connections with children in other countries.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
We had 98% attendance at our small batch lessons, which enabled thousands of children to reconnect with education and allowed teachers to check on their safety and wellbeing during lockdown. Of those interviewed,
- 92% of children think their current learning will help them have a better life when they’re older.
- 92% of children are happy to put up their hand in class, showing
- 100% of teachers and parents reported a positive change in the children.
- 81% of children teach friends and family what they learn in school.
70% of parents said they have acted to make changes at their children’s schools, reflecting strong community ownership.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
- Fully re-establish the programme after lockdown.
- Full implementation of digital education curriculum and the development of monitoring and evaluation to assess its impact.
- - Children living in challenging environments in other countries join the Moja Kids platform, exchanging their own digital content.
- - Build on and develop strong community ownership as the people see the growing benefits of their involvement.
“We thought that the
coronavirus was a round animal which enters the human body and kills people, so we were very scared when we saw signs of the virus. But we found out through our madam [teacher] that it is not an animal, it is a virus.”
**Children’s feedback from Kutupalong**
Interviews reflect how the awareness videos and teacher input have helped to dispel myths about the coronavirus.
112 children in Cox’s Bazar received their PECE certificates (Primary School Certificate Exams).
In 2020’s AbilityNet Tech4Good awards, our digital education programme was chosen for the Lenovo Education Award, recognising outstanding digital achievement in education.

Provided 32 teachers with a five-day refresher training course to keep them motivated and ensure their knowledge and practice is up to date.
Began to create a set of Early Childhood Development operational guidelines with consideration for the local context and situation.
Programme staff used lockdown time to study child development, child rights, parenting, how to respond to coronavirus and critical thinking for early years teachers.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
Adapting early learning programmes in the most remote conditions has been an incredible feat from staff, teachers and parents who ensured that all the children have been able to continue learning, playing and developing through lockdown.
Pre lockdown mobile phone training meant that teachers and programme staff managed to maintain regular contact throughout restrictions even in the several areas that remain completely inaccessible.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
- Create awareness and increase funding for the support of the Kachin people.
- Provide relief supplies to families affected by the conflict as able, especially warm clothing for children during the cold winter months.
- Improve centre facilities and replenish supplies which have been neglected
- Support new IDPs coming to the camps or those wishing to return to their home communities.

Community ownership has been maintained with parents and ECD Committees continuing to help with renovations and the creation of indoor and outdoor supplies where possible.
Facilitators observed that parents' attitudes towards their children gradually changed for the better throughout the months that they engaged with the parenting course.
The staff’s extra study through lockdown improved their self-confidence and motivation during consequent monitoring trips where they shared what they had learned and provided more informed feedback for teachers.

**FUTURE PLANS**
Our early years learning programme pivoted from the two Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres we support to doorstep lessons and wellbeing check-ins from teachers, termly home learning packs delivered for 180 children and training for parents.
We continued campaigning to pass The Prevention and Prohibition of Human Sacrifice Bill 2020 along with partner organisations.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
91% of parents reported children worked well in home lessons and they were pleased with their progress, including positive changes like improved handwriting, reading, counting, matching and drawing. By the second term parents were trained in conducting lessons themselves and 80% of children fully completed their work.
Attendance at regular community workshops more than doubled in Loco, Masese I and Wandago and Child Protection Team training attendance across all areas increased from 79% to 98%.
This year’s **‘Most Significant Change’ evaluation** reflected transformations in peoples’ parenting, their businesses and their ability to save. People also talked about wider community transformation in hygiene and sanitation and the combating of domestic abuse.
93% of small business loan participants say they can now feed their children twice a day and by January 2021, 80% of this year’s loans had been fully recovered. Savings groups are reflecting success by taking on bigger development projects like housing.
Child Rights Club members grew in confidence this year and have worked effectively both with their Child Protection Teams and with each other, referring many child protection cases and advocating widely with their peers and the wider community on child protection issues.
- Maintain support for current Child Protection Teams and replicate an adaptation of our Child Protection Team model in key areas around Uganda, engaging with local government structures.
- - Prepare for re-opening of ECD centres and develop elements of digital learning, monitoring and evaluation.
- - Continue to develop Child Rights Clubs and if capacity allows, formulate plans to replicate in further communities.
- Maintain support for education loans and savings groups.
Support the final stages of the passing of The Prevention and Prohibition of Human Sacrifice Bill.
“People also used to fight a lot, men used to drink recklessly and would resort to beating their spouses and children. When Children on the Edge Africa came, they taught us how to live harmoniously, and about children’s rights and other human rights. We started inviting both men and women to the community workshops, and people in the community learnt that domestic violence interrupts the rights of children”.

Delivered two rounds of supply parcels to 188 elderly-headed households struggling through lockdown.
Continued covid-safe teacher training for 90 teachers through the use of self study and peer cluster groups, with 34 sitting university exams in early 2021.
Recruited an additional 90 teachers for the development of a new cluster learning programme.
Partnered with Haileybury Youth Trust in the building of four new Early Childhood Development centres using sustainable methods, training 16 refugee apprentices in construction and handing the newly built venues back to the communities. Building has already commenced at six new sites with 16 newly recruited apprentices.
Facilitated Centre Management Committee (CMC) meetings and provided intensive training for 294 members on the core concepts around Early Childhood Development (ECD), child rights, gender responsiveness and child abuse.
Provided 28 small business loans for teachers to generate independent sustainable incomes.
Organised child protection training for 70 key participants in the Early Childhood Development programme.
## PERFORMANCE AND ACHIEVEMENT
93% of children said they enjoyed listening to the radio lessons and 100% of parents felt it was beneficial for the children during lockdown.
The four new centres were completed successfully in spite of coronavirus restrictions, in conjunction with local communities who are thrilled to have a colourful airy space for children to learn.
16 refugee apprentices achieved their certificates, with some going on to find immediate employment.
Finding creative ways to provide education through lockdown led to the formulation of a pilot cluster group model, where small groups of children learn in safe spaces in the community, allowing us to meet the educational needs of hundreds of additional children that cannot be served by a small number of buildings.
## FUTURE PLANS
- Construct the next ten (out of 14 planned) Early Childhood Development centres, including latrines and water harvesting.
- Through continued teacher training, the development of small business loans for teachers and the resourcing of Centre Management Committees, support all 30 communities to become more self-sufficient in the management of their centres, leading to independent community owned ECD provision.
Develop digital learning in the centres and scale up the new cluster learning programme throughout the 10 zone pilot area to all 30 communities, training the new teachers and utilising tablets as a teaching resource.
There are now fully functioning, trained and engaged Centre Management Committees at each one of the 30 centres we support.
The 28 small business loans given out to teachers through lockdown proved to be a great success and 26 have been paid back.

140 other students were able to take Arabic, Maths and English exams in August. 85% passed, which is exceptional considering all the challenges they have faced.
100% of children interviewed said that they always enjoy school and also describe using what they have learned outside of school in positive ways.
Parents described how their home environments have become calmer and more positive as a result of the school improving the self esteem and happiness of their children.
Syrian refugee teachers noted how taking on this role has not only given them practical skills, but confidence, purpose, pride, social status, independence and an improved
## **FUTURE PLANS**
- Continue to support the school in Zahle and focus on preparing children for transition to mainstream education or a return to Syria.
- Open two new classes, one for reception-age children and a second for children around 10 years old, who have thus far missed out on an education.
- Continue to develop vocational training for the older children at school, with evening classes for teenagers, adult Syrian refugees and local Lebanese people.
Further equip our partners with resources to expand and diversify their own fundraising, enabling them to sustain the programme.
“At the beginning the children asked “What future”? We’re in a camp, we can’t do anything, but now after lessons they have a sense of identity and hope for the future.” -
Anon Syrian refugee teacher
As a reflection of confidence, 81% of children also felt it was likely or ‘very likely’ that they could get jobs in their chosen professions.

**Children on the Edge is in a strong position to serve the needs of the most marginalised and vulnerable children around the world despite the ongoing challenges created by the COVID pandemic.**
**This is only possible because of the ongoing generosity of supporters, from one-off donors to those who give every month, businesses of all sizes, trusts and institutional funders as well as those who give their time whether in the office (when allowed) or at events of any kind. We deeply appreciate every single one of you. Thank you.**
## **INCOME**
**Our donors responded with huge generosity to the increased need created by the COVID pandemic. We grew our income by just over 5% on the previous year to £2,353,525 which enabled us to maintain programmes and respond directly to the needs of the crisis.**
## **EXPENDITURE SPLIT:**

**TOTAL EXPENDITURE: £1,895,951**
**Overall programme spending has increased by over just over 30% to £1,895,951. This is due to a number of factors:**
- **During the COVID pandemic we maintained 100% spending on overseas staff salaries.**
- **Some small savings were made on programme running costs but were negated by increased spending on our COVID response to either create new learning opportunities or to respond to the immediate needs of the crisis.**
- **Spending in Lebanon increased due to the grant from the People’s Postcode Lottery.**

## **FINANCE**
## **RESTRICTED FUNDS**
As a result of the increase in expenditure, as previously forecast, the restricted funds balance has reduced from £914,897 to £632,880.
We currently hold restricted balances for our work in Bangladesh, Lebanon and Kachin State, Myanmar and India. The largest of these restrictions applies to our work with the Rohingya in Bangladesh (balance of £361,206) which is also our largest programme.
We do not foresee any problems in reducing these to zero over the coming years.
## **DESIGNATED FUNDS**
We continue to designate funds to programme locations and the UK office to maintain the sustainability of and commitment to programmes. The level of designation considers any restricted balance, the volatility of a situation and potential funding sources. Generally designations are between 3 and 9 months of the forecast annual expenditure.
The COVID-19 crisis has increased the volatility of all programme locations and funding sources therefore, before considering restricted balances, we have designated 9 months of forecast costs to each location to help ensure project sustainability.
## **RESERVES POLICY**
## **INVESTMENT POLICY AND OBJECTIVES**
Reserves are required to ensure the continued smooth operation of the charity, to cope with any unexpected eventualities and to enable any one off expenditure that is deemed appropriate for the charity.
The trustees have agreed that in addition to any designated funds the free reserve balance should ideally be no more than 25% of the coming year’s forecast expenditure. The current level of free reserves is 5% of the 2021-2022 forecast expenditure and therefore at an acceptable level.
## **FUND BALANCES AS OF 28/02/2021**
Restricted Funds: £632,880 Designated Funds: £1,555,006 Free Reserves: £108,396 Total Funds: £2,296,282
In 2020-2021 the charity achieved an income of £2,269 from its deposit account interest.
In general, any fund balances are kept in instant access accounts so that they are always available to be utilised should the need arise.
When balances allow, or where funds are restricted to specific projects, it may be necessary to hold them for longer periods of time. In these cases, the management and trustees of Children on the Edge may decide to invest a portion of these funds.
When investing funds, risks will be considered and minimised in all circumstances. Typically funds are invested in fixed year bonds in banks protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
We will not invest in companies or funds that operate in the Tobacco, Armaments or Pornographic Industry and will always look to invest in socially responsible investments.
**18**
## **FUNDRAISING**
Our objective for 2020 / 2021 was to raise £1,988,727 across a diverse base of funding.
## **PRINCIPLE FUNDING SOURCES**
- 30% from Individuals and Gifts in Kind
- 40% from Corporates
- 30% from Grants and Fees
Plus nominal income from other sources.
- Despite a challenging year of pivoting our fundraising around COVID-19 restrictions we exceeded our expected income.
- We maintained a broad base of funding as planned.
- We increased donations from individuals, regular giving and through running several appeals including The Big Give campaign.
- We increased donations through corporate partnerships, due to a second year of extraordinary growth from The Body Shop at Home ™.
We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator and comply with all the relevant standards set out in the Code of Fundraising Practice. All fundraising staff receive training relating to the Code of Practise during induction, and relevant implementation policies (eg Finance policy, Fundraising Complaints policy) are reviewed each year with the fundraising team. Any areas of concern regarding compliance are raised with the COO and the trustees.
In the year 2020/2021 we received one minor complaint; relating to a supporter who held a fundraising event in support of the charity within a corporate partnership. The complaint was responded to within 10 days. Each year we report the number of complaints received to the Fundraising Regulator. Any serious complaints are escalated to COO and trustees.
## **HOW WE PROTECT VULNERABLE PEOPLE**
## **OUR APPROACH TO FUNDRAISING**
Our fundraising team works to raise funds in a number of different ways; engaging individual donors, soliciting gifts from foundations and trusts, a growing regular giving scheme, strategic corporate partnerships as well as community fundraising and challenge events.
We do not engage the services of ‘professional fundraising’ businesses; all our fundraising activity is delivered by our own fundraising team. We do work with commercial participators; when doing so conducting due diligence and reviewing agreements annually.
We are signed up to the Fundraising Preference Service to enable individuals to opt out from receiving fundraising communications from us. We do not produce mass mailings with donation asks, any fundraising campaigns are led through email newsletters where there is a clear process to opt out of future newsletters.
We are in the process of reviewing and publishing a vulnerable persons policy to guide our fundraising and communications teams conduct with potentially vulnerable supporters.

## **FUNDRAISING**
## **FUNDRAISING HIGHLIGHTS**
As the UK went into lockdown in March 2020, at the start of our financial year, we focused our time and resources into building strong relationships with our supporters; and increasing the ways we could connect with them online.
This approach enabled us to pivot so many face to face fundraising events into virtual events which helped us to raise an incredible £864,552 with our partnership with The Body Shop at Home ™. We are so grateful to our growing “Ambassador” programme within the partnership that helped to champion so much virtual fundraising in 2020.
Without physical events, our supporters were creative in raising funds virtually, and most significantly we were delighted to have so many children supporting the charity in 2020 with virtual runs and walks.
We are grateful to so many grant makers and individuals who generously responded to the COVID-19 crisis and donated to help us respond to the emergent and ever changing needs of the communities we support.
We were delighted to be awarded a second grant from the Postcode Global Trust; a significant investment of £250,000. We are so thankful to players of the People’s Postcode Lottery which funds the Postcode Global Trust. Funds will support safe spaces and quality education for Syrian children and boost our Early Years education programme with Congolese refugee children in Kyaka II.
We ran our second matched giving campaign with The Big Give in December, investing in education for Dalit children in India. With thanks to matching funders; The Charles Jacob Charitable Trust, Pacific Star Charitable Trust and The Coles-Medlock Foundation, we were able to connect with new donors, inspire more than 150 donations and raise an incredible £44,432 during the campaign.

## **SAFEGUARDING**
As an organisation that works to advance children’s rights, we recognise the need to ensure that safeguarding considerations are part of everything that we do and that we need an organisational culture which enables this to happen. We continue to work closely with all our partners to ensure compliance with global safeguarding standards and timely reporting of incidents to donors and the Charity Commission.
## **SERIOUS INCIDENT REPORTS**
During the year there were no serious incidents to report to the Charity Commission.
There were no safeguarding incidents reported in the year.
Our Code of Conduct sets out clear expectations for all employees, volunteers and partners, who understand that action will be taken if they do not uphold these standards.

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE & MANAGEMENT**
Children on the Edge is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 16 December 2003, company registration No. 4996130, Charity Registration No. 1101441. The company was established under the Memorandum of Association, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.
The trustees who are also directors of the Charity for the purposes of the Companies Act, have prepared their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 28th February 2020 to meet all statutory requirements, including the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.
They have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the trust’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
## **RECRUITMENT AND APPOINTMENT OF NEW TRUSTEES**
The Memorandum and Articles of Association allow for no less than three trustees to be appointed. Trustees all serve for a period of three years at which point the Articles of Association require them to resign as a trustee and seek re-election if they wish to continue to act. New trustees are nominated by members of the board of trustees, interviewed and appointed where they are found to have the necessary skills to contribute to the charity's management and development. Induction and training of new trustees:
When new trustees are appointed they are given an introduction to the work of the charity and provided with an information pack. This includes information about the role of trustees and charity law.
## **ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE**
Each trustee takes responsibility for monitoring the charity's activities, and where appropriate the trustees form sub committees for specific operational areas. The main sub committee is the finance and governance committee, which meets at least twice a year.
This committee reports action points to Board meetings, which are also held at least twice a year. The charity's Chief Executive is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the charity and manages the staff of the charity on behalf of the trustees.
**23**
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE & MANAGEMENT**
## **WIDER NETWORK**
The charity's head office is in Chichester, with an overseas office in Thailand. The charity has a number of principal partner organisations with whom it cooperates to deliver its programmes. These organisations are laid out in the Programmes section of this document.
**The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks that the charity faces and confirmed the establishment of systems to mitigate these, should they occur.**
**With international operations, travel and civil unrest in project locations present the most likely risk with policies and insurance, so we have regular checks to mitigate these.**
## **PAY POLICY FOR SENIOR STAFF**
The Board of Directors, who are the charity’s trustees, and the senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the organisation on a day to day basis. All trustees give their time freely and no director received remuneration in the year.
**The risk of the impact of the departure of key staff is mitigated through creating a strong working culture and environment as well as succession planning and engaging all staff in the vision, strategy and plans.**
**Our budget and regularly reviewed fundraising plans, as well as reserves ensure we have adequate funding. Strict policies and controls help reduce the risk of any financial fraud or mismanagement in project locations.**
The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually and normally increased in accordance with average earnings. In view of the nature of the charity, the directors benchmark against pay levels in other charities of a similar size. The remuneration bench-mark is the mid-point of the range paid for similar roles adjusted for a weighting of up to 30% for any additional responsibilities. If recruitment has proven difficult in the recent past, a market addition is also paid with the pay maximum no greater than the highest benchmarked salary for a comparable role.
## **RISK MANAGEMENT**
The trustees actively review the major risks that the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions.
**24**
## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES**
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the surplus or deficit of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.
- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in
- Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
## **STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS**
So far as the trustees are aware, there is no relevant information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware. Each trustee has taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a trustee, in order to make them aware of any audit information and to establish that the charitable company's auditors are aware of that information.
## **AUDITORS**
The auditors, Scott Vevers will be proposed for re-appointment in accordance with Section 487 of the Companies Act 2006.
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 statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies regime under the Companies Act 2006.
On behalf of the board:
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHILDREN ON THE EDGE**
## **Opinion**
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
We have audited the financial statements of Children On The Edge for the year ended 28[th] February 2021 set out on pages 29 to 40. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), 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
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 charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 28[th] February 2021 and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- ● have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.
## **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.
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 trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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.
**26**
## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHILDREN ON THE EDGE**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the fnancial statements**
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- the information given in the financial
- statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees’ Annual Report; or
- • the charitable company has not kept adequate accounting records; or
- • the charitable company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
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.
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ Responsibilities Statement set out on page 25, 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 a going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
**27 28**
## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHILDREN ON THE EDGE**
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charitable company’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**Children on the Edge** Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 28 February 2021
## **1 General information**
Children On The Edge is a company, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. The address of the registered office is provided in Reference and administrative details. Details of the charity’s operations are provided in the Report of the Trustees.
## **Accounting policies**
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
## **Basis of preparation**
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention and 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)), the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
## **Incoming resources**
All incoming resources are included on the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Donated assets and services are included at the value of essential expenditure that has been saved as a result of that gift.
## **Classification of expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Funding provided through contractual agreements and performance related grants are recognised as goods or services as supplied. Other grant payments are recognised when a constructive obligation arises that results in the payment being unavoidable. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Costs of raising funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income. Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of its assets and are primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Assets costing less than £1000 are written off in the year of purchase. Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life as follows: Plant and machinery - 33% on cost
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Foreign currencies**
Profit and loss account transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Sterling at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Sterling at the closing rates at the balance sheet date and the exchange differences are included in the profit and loss account.
## **Operating leases**
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged in the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term.
## **Pensions**
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
## **Going Concern**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Where money is given for a specific geographic area or project, a separate fund is created and expenditure incurred in the area allocated against the income. An allocation of support costs is made where there are sufficient fund balances.
Funds are designated by the trustees in particular areas to maintain the sustainablity and commitment to programmes as detailed in the Trustees' Report.
