CHAIR’S REPORT
Welcome to Southend YMCA Annual Report 2024/2025
In 2024–25, Southend YMCA (SYMCA) continued to respond to the cost of living crisis, which affects the lives of many in our community. We remain deeply concerned about children growing up in poverty and the lack of affordable, secure housing, conditions that can undermine wellbeing and progress. Young people continue to face persistent challenges around mental health, digital safety and housing insecurity.
Yet, in the face of these pressures, SYMCA delivered transformative services to over 22,000 children, young people and families through short and long term interventions - a testament to our team’s dedication and the trust placed in us by our funders, partners and supporters.
Our open access programmes, from our free music studio and detached youth work to mentoring and wellbeing support, continue to enrich lives and build resilience. Young people have played a central role in shaping these services.
“I helped design the new wellbeing sessions. It feels good knowing they actually listened to us.” (Young person, SYMCA Youth Voice Panel)
We successfully delivered our Transitional Supported Housing Service for homeless young adults (aged 18 to 24) and provided inclusive education through our Alternative Provision school. This year, the school was judged “Good” by Ofsted, with “Outstanding” for pupil behaviour, a reflection of the care, structure and ambition embedded in our educational approach. We also launched a new sixth form at our Eco Hub building, expanding opportunities for post-16 learners in a nurturing, sustainability-focused environment.
Strategic Direction and Governance
Our strategic objective remains: “To be an innovative, resilient and sustainable charity, delivering social value for children, young people, families and the wider community.”
1
CHAIR’S REPORT
This year, the Board refined its governance arrangements to strengthen oversight and ensure alignment with regulatory expectations. We reviewed our committee structure and deepened our focus on financial resilience. In line with our Memorandum and Articles of Association, two trustees will reach the end of their term of office in 2026. To support succession planning and maintain strategic breadth, we will conduct a skills audit and begin the process of recruiting new trustees, with a specific focus on lived experience and underrepresented groups. This will help ensure our Board reflects the diversity, insight and community connection needed to guide SYMCA through its next chapter.
Trustees also reworked the organisational risk register, applying domains from the Regulator of Social Housing’s Sector Risk Profile (October 2024). This has helped us better anticipate and manage systemic risks across finance, compliance, workforce and service delivery. In a further step towards regulatory alignment, the Board made its first formal return to the Housing Ombudsman, structured around the Complaints Handling Code, reinforcing our commitment to transparency, accountability and continuous improvement.
During the year, trustees resolved to dispose of a community flat, with the proceeds earmarked for reinvestment into the Newlands Supported Accommodation site. This decision reflects our commitment to delivering more and better housing - increasing the number of units while upgrading existing stock. We will need to fundraise to meet modern standards of comfort, accessibility and environmental performance.
We also completed our Management Knowledge Transfer Partnership (mKTP) with Innovate UK and the University of Hertfordshire. Building on this foundation, we are now exploring how generative AI can complement our workforce by enhancing service delivery, improving operational efficiency, and orientating young people toward the future world of work.
Celebrating Milestones
This year marked the 30th anniversary of Newlands Supported Accommodation. On 6 August 2025, we welcomed past and present
2
residents, staff and supporters to a vibrant celebration at Ambleside Drive. The event featured live music, climbing walls, storytelling and a strong sense of community spirit - a powerful reminder of the thousands of lives transformed over three decades. The Lord Lieutenant of Essex unveiled a commemorative plaque, with the High Sheriff of Essex also in attendance.
We were also proud to be the chosen charity for the 2025 World Cupon-Sea football tournament, hosted at Roots Hall Stadium and led by AJ Chambers. This lively, 32-team event brought together socially responsible businesses from across the region for a day of sport, fundraising and solidarity. In 2026, we intend to build on these exciting business relationships.
Outputs and Outcomes
SYMCA’s work is grounded in evidence and driven by outcomes. This year:
-
Newlands Supported Accommodation delivered over 7,330 hours of tailored support to 57 young residents, including 11 care leavers. This personalised approach helped young people build essential life skills and move closer to independence and long-term stability.
-
Ofsted recognised the SYMCA Community School’s transformational impact with an ‘Outstanding’ judgement for Behaviour and Attitudes.
-
Over 1,400 young people engaged in creative music-making.
We continue to use feedback, evaluation, and co-production to refine our services and ensure they meet real needs.
Looking Ahead
As we look forward into Financial Year 2025–26, we are preparing for a period of strategic adaptation. The landscape is shifting through devolution and local government reorganisation, and SYMCA is positioning itself to respond with agility and purpose. We are actively exploring new geographies, forging fresh partnerships and identifying opportunities where our values-led approach can deliver meaningful impact.
CHAIR’S REPORT
We are also exploring ways to contribute to the social housing decarbonisation agenda. At Newlands, we aim to retrofit the building with solar panels and improved insulation, and to expand the number of housing units on site.
Financial Resilience
Our financial position is stable, with unrestricted reserves covering three to four months of operating expenditure. Pension liabilities have eased, and we continue to meet lender covenants, maintaining our going concern status. We remain alert to the risks posed by funding volatility and workforce pressures, and are actively building resilience through income diversification and staff development.
Gratitude and Invitation
Southend YMCA’s legacy stretches back over a century. From our early days on Weston Road to our wartime contributions at Shoebury Garrison, and the founding of our Community School in 2012, our journey has always been shaped by the needs of the time. Today, we are part of a global YMCA movement: a network of local charities operating in 119 countries and reaching more than 58 million people.
To every supporter, partner and champion — thank you. Your belief in our mission fuels our progress. As we step into a new chapter, we invite you to walk with us as a donor, a collaborator or an advocate. Together, we can build a future where every young person thrives.
With warm wishes,
Stephen Onslow Chair of Trustees Southend YMCA

TRUSTEES REPORT
QUALITY ASSURANCE, REGULATION AND COMPLIANCE
The Matrix Quality Standard for Information, Advice, and Guidance (IAG) importantly notes that the “SYMCA service is truly young person-centred” and that we support Children and Young People (CYP) to “move forward in a positive way”.
The Investors in People Standard at Gold level (IIP) speaks of our creative culture, value-based leadership and agile management: it puts us in the country’s top 17% of firms.
In 2014, our SOS Bus Project was awarded the Queens Award for Voluntary Service (the MBE for voluntary groups).
The school has consistently held an Ofsted ‘Good’ judgement.
With regard to our facilities:
We uphold the Decent Homes Standard. Building compliance is demonstrated through an ongoing Health and Safety inspection regime carried out by operational industry-standard bodies.
We were awarded a Combined Heritage and Conservation Architectural Award and the BREEAM Excellent Environmental Standard for our Eco-Hub Building (in 2010).
Historically, we achieved the Community Safety Accreditation Award. We further provide safe spaces through ongoing liaison with Essex Police. This approach is important to safeguard young people given societal challenges and risks such as the criminal exploitation of young people through county drug lines and modern slavery. We seek to be a good neighbour, and liaise with local residents as appropriate.

THE DIFFERENCE WE MAKE - DELIVERING PUBLIC BENEFIT Who do we benefit?
Southend YMCA directly benefits vulnerable children, young people, their families and carers, including those who live in poverty and have fewer opportunities. Each person is an individual, and we seek to respond accordingly: building on their strengths, understanding aspirations and offering bespoke support.
Common presentations include emotional wellbeing needs, low selfesteem and risk-taking behaviours. We house homeless young people and support those who are not in employment or education.
The charity provides information and advice to people of all ages. Family, health and wellbeing projects support parents, carers, babies and young children living in Southend’s most deprived wards, helping to ensure the best start in life. We also know that our online campaigns and events are successfully connecting with the wider public, supporting community cohesion and delivering important public health messages.
How do we know we are delivering benefits?
Our delivery is underpinned by a monitoring and evaluation framework appropriate to each type of project. Examples include exit surveys, focus groups, case studies and practitioner learning journals, along with collaborative research. We develop Theories of Change for our activities, tracking the inputs, outputs, outcomes and impacts of our work.
What types of benefits were received in 2024-2025?
Benefits included improvements in motivation and emotional wellbeing; literacy, numeracy and soft skills; self-care; interpersonal relationships; physical health; a decrease in risk-taking behaviour; progression into education or training (including qualifications and awards); new employment opportunities and reduced benefit dependency. We also saw an increase in the ability to live independently and stronger connections to the community through active citizenship.

TRUSTEES REPORT
NEWLANDS
Newlands provides supported accommodation for young people aged 18 to 25, offering a secure and stable home where residents can live and learn. The average stay is estimated at two years due to the lack of suitable move-on housing opportunities.

We currently have 30 self-contained studio flats, which are let on licences, and an additional five-bedroom flat with shared facilities.
We recently introduced our Food4Thought programme, which provides residents with cooking experience and practice for preparing basic meals, as well as support with meal planning and the opportunity to gain a Level 2 Certificate in Food Hygiene and Safety.
All residents now have access to food and essential items that are regularly donated by local food charities and a local bakery.

TRUSTEES REPORT
SOUTHEND YMCA COMMUNITY SCHOOL
Southend YMCA Community School continues to provide high-quality alternative provision for students aged 14 to 18 who face barriers to accessing mainstream education. The school’s ethos of Respect and Restorative Practice underpins its commitment to nurturing both academic and personal growth, helping students re-engage with learning and build confidence.
Students benefit from a broad and rigorous curriculum that combines GCSE qualifications with a Life Skills Programme, preparing them for post-16 education, apprenticeships and employment. Community engagement remains a core element, with students actively participating in local projects. In May 2025, the school was inspected by Ofsted and received the following judgements:
QUALITY OF BEHAVIOUR PERSONAL EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT ATTITUDES GOOD OUTSTANDING GOOD
LEADERSHIP SIXTH FORM AND PROVISION MANAGEMENT GOOD GOOD
Inspectors praised the school’s ability to help students re-engage with education, its strong pastoral care and its effective support for learners with Education, Health and Care Plans. The careers provision was also highlighted as a particular strength.
The school’s reputation continues to grow both locally and nationally, with sustained student numbers and increased referrals from commissioning schools. In response to rising demand, a dedicated Sixth Form provision is set to open at the YMCA Eco Hub in September 2024.
Southend YMCA Community School remains committed to removing barriers to learning and enabling every student to achieve their full potential.

TRUSTEES REPORT
DETACHED YOUTH WORK
The project has been funded through the Violence and Vulnerability Unit (VVU) in partnership with Essex Council for Voluntary Youth Services (ECVYS). This funding has enabled staff to make positive interventions with young people in parks, high streets and neighbourhoods across Southend. Youth workers offer support, advice and signposting through conversations based on identified need.
The detached work focused on three wards: Kursaal, Victoria and Milton. These wards were identified by the VVU as areas where young people could benefit from additional support.
731 132 54 YOUNG PEOPLE HOURS SESSIONS REACHED DELIVERED
The team has engaged with young people who are otherwise hard to reach, promoting valuable and relevant services that meet their needs. They have also carried out listening exercises with these young people, identifying their top three areas of concern and sharing these insights with ECVYS commissioners and funders.
Mental Health (long waiting lists/ lack of support/ more education needed)
Knife Employment Crime /Training (increase in crime/ (cost of living/low youth violence/ wages) gangs)
Here is what young people have to say about Detached Youth Work
‘Having a Youth Support Team in Southend is really good to reach out to other young people, about what is going on within the community and what support can be offered. ‘’ ‘’I am so grateful that I was approached by the detached team as I feel much better within myself and have made some new friends after joining the YMCA workshops.’’

MY FUTURE
The My Future programme for primary school children aims to broaden horizons, challenge stereotypes and raise aspirations for both future career options and life opportunities. Every half term, children from Year 1 to Year 6 “meet” volunteers who work in different industries through live Zoom sessions. The children first guess the volunteers’ jobs and then learn about what each person does.
The programme is currently delivered in Southend, Basildon, Tendring, Colchester, Harlow and Castle Point and Rochford. The excitement and learning have been fantastic, and feedback from children, professionals and Ofsted clearly indicates that the project is meeting its aims.

BUMP TO BREAST (Sept 2024 - Mar 2025)
Southend YMCA’s Bump to Breast (B2B) project, funded by A Better Start Southend, ran from 2018 to 2025 to support breastfeeding families across Southend’s most deprived wards. It offered weekly drop-in groups, outreach at the Southend Storehouse Foodbank and monthly meet-ups at the Cliffs Pavilion Café. Families referred by Southend Hospital received antenatal and postnatal support, including phone calls and online group invitations. The project also contributed to the Southend Supports Breastfeeding scheme and the Infant Feeding Network, and hosted creative initiatives such as multilingual art, community-designed tea towels and three published books featuring local mums.
Evaluated by the University of Essex, B2B was praised for its emotional, practical and social impact. Parents described the group as a lifeline, offering reassurance, hands-on breastfeeding help and a strong sense of community. Many reported increased confidence, reduced isolation and longer breastfeeding journeys. Over 90 per cent of participants felt more supported, connected and empowered, with many going on to share their knowledge and experiences with others.

BUSINESS SUPPORT
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT)
We work closely with Southend City Council’s IT team, with our systems supported through the Council’s infrastructure. As part of our IT improvement project, and with specialist assistance from Shonet, we have developed a customised Salesforce Management Information System to strengthen service-user data management. We also use Microsoft 365 and are implementing OneDrive and SharePoint for cloud storage, enhancing security, collaboration and flexible working across the organisation.
We continue to refine our IT frameworks to improve efficiency and strengthen cyber defences against breaches and ransomware. The framework incorporates multiple redundancies and robust disaster recovery processes, ensuring seamless failover to backup systems. This supports our business continuity plan by minimising costs and disruptions while maintaining service delivery and providing reassurance to commissioners, funders and insurers. In addition, improved IT capability enhances our ability to secure new business opportunities, including the delivery of online wellbeing programmes.
HUMAN RESOURCES (HR)
Recruitment is conducted in line with our Safer Recruitment Policy and procedures. High-level volunteers increase our operational capacity while also helping to develop the next generation of the workforce. Notably, many undergraduate and postgraduate social work students are deployed in mentoring roles, supported by strong partnerships with universities. Staff and volunteers follow robust Workforce Development Plans that provide for mandatory induction training and ongoing professional development.

TRUSTEES REPORT
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Southend YMCA is affiliated to YMCA England and Wales and is part of a federated network of YMCAs that share a common goal: to create supportive, inclusive and energising communities where young people can truly belong, contribute and thrive.
In 2017, the Charity adopted the YMCA England and Wales Model Memorandum and Articles, under which Members and Trustees are the same individuals. The size of the Board is limited to 10 people. Trustees bring a breadth of relevant professional knowledge, alongside lived experience.
The full charitable objects of Southend YMCA are:
‘To advance the Christian faith, including by:
-
Promoting a Christian environment inspired and motivated by the life, example and teaching of Jesus Christ, where people of faith and people of none can work together for the transformation of communities; and
-
Enabling people of all ages and, in particular young people, to flourish through experiencing and responding to the love of God demonstrated by the life, example and teaching of Jesus Christ
‘To provide or assist in the provision in the interests if social welfare of facilities for recreation and other leisure time occupation for men and women with the object of improving their conditions of life’
‘To relieve or assist in the relief of people of all ages and, in particular, young people, who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress by reason of their social, physical, emotional, spiritual or economic circumstances’
‘To provide residential accommodation, including social housing, for people of all ages and, in particular, young people, who are in need, hardship or distress by reason of their social, physical, emotional, spiritual or economic circumstance’
28
TRUSTEES REPORT
Whilst Southend YMCA’s beneficial area is not limited, we operate as a local charity. In 2024–2025, the charity delivered services within the city of Southend-on-Sea and into South Essex.
The Board of Southend YMCA is responsible to the Regulator of Social Housing for meeting the Economic and Consumer Regulatory Standards and adopts a co-regulatory approach. This means that while the Regulator sets national standards, the responsibility for agreeing, monitoring and scrutinising local implementation lies with the Board. This is achieved through reports to the Board, sub-committee meetings and task-and-finish groups.
As required by the Housing Associations (HE) Accounts Direction, Trustees confirm that a Liabilities Register is in place and that they comply with their responsibilities as set out in the HE Governance and Financial Viability Standard. Our Housing Team has facilitated a Tenant Satisfaction Survey using the Regulator’s TSM measures, with positive results.
Our Board has adopted the Charity Governance Code for Larger Charities. Trustees have explored their shared values and their commitment to delivering our charitable purposes within a rapidly changing economic environment. The tensions between opportunities, risks and costs are actively addressed. Trustees are aware of their responsibilities regarding housing stewardship and are making plans for additional investment in the Newlands building. This includes recirculating a receipt from the disposal of a non-social housing asset, a property on London Road with a remaining lease of 93 years.
29
TRUSTEES REPORT
Trustees will be reviewing the organisational purpose and strategy in 2025–26, recognising the risks within the housing sector and how these may affect the delivery of more and better housing. Fiscal challenges continue to impact Local Authority commissioning, making it essential to achieve full cost recovery on all contracts. Trustees agree that SYMCA has a strong reputation and operates to the standards required.
The Board is committed to recruiting new trustees aligned to our core areas of work. Findings from a recent Trustees’ Skills Audit show that the strongest professional experience represented on the Board includes strategic leadership in the public and voluntary sectors, senior management, operational delivery across housing, health and wellbeing, and financial expertise. While some Board members bring lived experience related to our charitable mission, it remains our intention to increase diversity of background.
The Board may comprise not fewer than two and up to ten members. It conducts its business through Board meetings and two Sub-Committees: Finance, Risk and Audit, and Housing and Facilities. Each committee operates under agreed Terms of Reference and is chaired by a trustee with relevant professional expertise.
It is the Board’s responsibility to bring independent judgement to matters of strategy, performance, resources and conduct. The Board may seek professional advice in carrying out its duties. All trustees are required to declare any interests at meetings and maintain entries in the Register of Interests. One trustee received remuneration for legal work undertaken at substantially discounted rates, following all necessary probity processes.
Southend YMCA pays a fixed-rate salary; there is no incremental salary scale. Trustees may, at their discretion, award a cost-of-living uplift, which was implemented in 2024–2025. Salaries may also be reviewed to reflect additional responsibilities assumed by individuals, in line with market conditions.
30
TRUSTEES REPORT
The Board is ultimately responsible for the Charity’s system of internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness. Key internal assurance controls include:
-
Board-approved Terms of Reference, an inter-group Deed of Agreement and a Delegated Authorities Schedule.
-
Risk and Liabilities Registers, supported by disaster-scenario planning.
-
Strategic and business planning processes, including detailed budgets, forecasts and management accounts.
-
Formal Recruitment, Retention, Training and Development Policies for staff.
-
Options appraisals and the procurement of professional technical advice when embarking on major new projects, ensuring compliance with legislation and regulation.
-
Operational policies, procedures and systems.
-
Scrutiny of all new initiatives and major commitments.
-
Audit – financial, health and safety. Building compliance etc.
-
Keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time the financial position.
-
Regular reporting by the Senior Leadership Team to the Board and its Committees on the Performance of Services in relation to contracts.
The Board recognises that any system of internal control can only manage, and not eliminate, the risk of failure to achieve business objectives, and can provide only reasonable assurance against material misstatement or loss.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
During the year, the use of the Xero Financial Information Management Platform supported the delivery of secure and accurate financial control and accounting.
31
TRUSTEES REPORT
Our Chief Finance Officer (CFO) produced quarterly management accounts and other centralised financial data to fulfil multiple reporting needs - improving efficiency and responsiveness. These changes enable Southend YMCA to:
-
Respond to risk in a dynamic way
-
Prepare forecast budgets and check cash flows
-
Provide financial data for funding applications and monitoring returns
-
Inform the Board’s business strategy/direction and decision making.
-
Maintain a focus in achieving greater value for money for example achieving optimum electric prices
Principle sources of funding
The principal sources of funding in 2024-25 were grant income, contract income and rental income. Due to the predictability and reliability of these income sources, there is not the volatility associated with trading. However, achieving full cost recovery (where all cost continues to rise) requires diligence and/or requires mitigating actions.
The total funds held by the group is £4,173,099. This included restricted funds of £2,816,219 being the value of fixed assets, current assets and long-term liabilities.
The net assests held by the main Charity comprised £1,376,930 being the value of fixed assets of £2,085,026 including the Eco Hub Building, the Newlands Building and move on accommodation; and cash of £532,552.
The funds held by our subsidiary, South Essex Community Schools Limited, are restricted to the provision of full or part time education for children of compulsory school age who, by reason of illness, exclusion from school or otherwise, may not receive a suitable education unless alternative provision is made for them. At the year-end, the school made a small deficit. The school had net current assets of £2,796,169 of which, fixed assets of £1,930,940 - this is mainly the value of the school building which is subject to a covenant and is held in trust for the DFE.

TRUSTEES REPORT
Properties
As of 31 August 2025, the Charity owned 2 Housing Properties: Newlands (a 35-bed social housing unit– subject to a mortgage); 1 investment flat and the Eco Hub training building. SYMCA’s Depreciation Policy is set out in the Notes to the Accounts on page 56-57.
Pension costs
The Charity is a member of a closed YMCA Pension Scheme which has a deficit. The Charity made an annual payment of £ 10,329 to service the debt. During the year it joined with other YMCAs to explore options around limiting long term liabilities.
The Charity recognises possible concern relating to its participation in a Defined Benefit Pension Scheme. Appropriate action has been taken: The Scheme was closed to new members in 2007, and the link to final salary broken in 2011. Additional contributions continue to be made to reduce the deficit. As part of the YMCA Federation, the multi-employer Pension Scheme is run by an independent Trustee Board with employer representation through the Principal Employer, National Council of YMCAs.
The Pension Scheme Trustee obtains an actuarial valuation every three years and we have considered the implications to the Charity’s Finances from the latest available actuarial valuation.
33
TRUSTEES REPORT
We have reviewed the Charity’s ability to continue to deliver its charitable objectives by ensuring budgets, forecasts and plans are available and include the impact of deficit repayments. The Pension Scheme Trustee included the impact of Pension Scheme Deficit Repayments in considering going concern status, reserves, and the risks and uncertainties that the charity face noted elsewhere in this report.
The Charity benefits from the Pension Scheme Trustee and the Principal Employer seeking suitable specialist Professional advice both to manage the Scheme and in the continuing effort to explore ways of reducing the overall pension deficit. The notes to the accounts include an accounting policy and further details in note 18.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Board maintains a dynamic approach to risk mitigation – considering a wealth of technical professional advice from accountancy, through to Health and Safety and Facilities Reports. Risk domains correlate with Charity Commission (CC28) Guidance, and the Regulator of Social Housing’s (RSH) ‘Sector Risk Profile’ (2024)
Breach of Covenants - The Interest Service Cover (ISC) is our most restrictive covenant. Within the context of variable mortgage interest costs supplier and employee costs ongoing budgetary management is a priority. Our financial performance in 2024/5 shows covenant compliance and our approved budget for 2025/6 also shows the same. Investment into a community fundraising team is building valued relationships and partnerships, securing donations and gifts to support our vitally important work.
External environment and operating context- we will continue to conduct a PESTLE analysis and SWOT analysis to identify key trends and opportunities to grow or mitigate threats to our charitable plans to deliver public benefit
Local Authority financing pressures- may create lean contracts. Charitable funds should not subsidise the Public Sector and so we will cautiously consider new opportunities, service modelling and innovation for full cost recovery.
34
TRUSTEES REPORT
Unsuccessful fundraising and failed funding applications- may occur, given grant making bodies are oversubscribed and donations are competitive. However, our positive track record of outcomes and creative service design creates a compelling case for support.
Mitigation
Due to tight financial control and reliable income sources, we do not anticipate cash-flow problems in 2025-26. In recirculating any receipt, the intention would be to increase operating cash reserves to 6 months – given the time taken to market property and liquidise capital assets. Our Reserves Policy focussed on the balance between cash and fixed assets and managing liquidity.
Reserve’s Policy
The term ‘Reserves’ is used to describe that part of a Charity’s Income funds that are freely available for its operating purposes, not subject to commitments, planned expenditure and spending limits. Reserves do not include endowment funds, restricted funds and designated funds.
Having a Reserves Policy helps inform the way in which we manage our cash, liquid assets and debt. It assists us when planning and explaining our approach to stakeholders and contributes significantly to the Board’s ability to balance the needs of current and future beneficiaries.
We set our reserves level with reference to: analysis of cash flow; existing funds and reserves; future income streams with an assessment of their reliability; committed expenditure and how far this is controllable; examination of past trends; examining the likely changes in the main sources of income and how we may cope with these changes; an assessment of the risks we face, and how likely these are to materialise; and forecasting future income and expenditure.
Charity trustees have established a new Reserves Policy target. This is to hold 6 months of operating costs in cash to buffer volatilities.
35
TRUSTEES REPORT
Furthermore, the Board has established a capital emergency reserve where £50k was set aside in 2024-25. This is prudent when considering stock condition, the Decent Homes Standard and the availability of grants or otherwise. And so, the intention is to add to the capital reserve.
The running costs of our charitable business for 2025/6 are forecast at £105,757 per month which equates to £317,271 to £634,542. The Trustees consider that the free reserves at the year-end fall within this range.
At the year end the Charity held cash of £532,552 of which £63,447 comprised cash held on account (being funders paying in advance) with net current cash of £469,105. This comprises 3.5 months of operating expenditure. This is a increase in funds compared to the previous year net cash of £129,432.
Trustees accepted that the level of cash funds was acceptable due to the value of fixed assets which could provide security for increased working capital or be liquidated in the event of having to wind up the Charity. Fundraising capacity has been increased in 2023-24 alongside a refreshed Fundraising Strategy.
It is the policy of the Academy Trust to maintain a level of reserves that is sufficient to meet its future obligations. Fund balances at 31.08.2025 comprised: £2,796,170 of which £2,780,402 were restricted funds and £15,768 unrestricted. Of the restricted funds, £1,930,942 is represented by tangible fixed assets, general funds total £849,460.
Governors have approved a three-year plan to use reserves within the current educational climate, mainly on staffing in support of the students and for new building. The plan is dynamically risk assessed, and staffing is considered is the most significant risk.
Due to the above levels of reserves, Trustees know that they would be able to carry on the group’s day to day activities in the event of a drop-in funding whilst considering how funding would be replaced.
Furthermore, the Charity remains a going concern, with the ability to meet its proportion of the YMCA group pension deficit. Due to a positive valuation deficit payment will remain flat until the end of the term in 2027.
36
TRUSTEES REPORT
For the Financial Year 2025-26 the Board has set objectives to:
Increase free reserves, to fundraise for ongoing improvements works to the Newlands Building including decarbonisation measures, and to secure grants supporting youthwork which further the needs and aspirations of beneficiaries. We will seek the support from grant making trusts and through general appeals to assist in these areas.
The Board will continue to monitor the finances of the organisations including the position of the reserves through the Finance, Risk and Audit Committee.
Other Income
Income from other activities includes income from fundraising events, hire of facilities, and donations. Income is receivable in exchange for goods and services and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Investment Policy
Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves most of the Charity’s Funds are to be spent in the short to medium term on charitable services for benefciaries.
Previous capital investment in afordable housing secures a long-term return (mission and rental income). The Charity has borrowed to acquire the Newlands Asset. The outstanding balance is £668,195.
