Structure, governance and management
Nature of governing document
The charity is a company limited by guarantee and registered charity. It is operated under the rules of its memorandum and articles of association dated 21 March 2005. It has no share capital and the liability of each member in the event of winding-up is limited to £1.
Recruitment and appointment of trustees
Currently there is a good mix of skills and experience in all areas. However an annual Trustee skills audit is carried out and this shows where there may be gaps in skills or experience needed now or likely to be needed in the forseeable future. This could be due to changing environments or resignations. If a gap appears we advertise in the local volunteers’ centre, or approach individuals from our wide network of contacts encouraging people with the appropriate skills and experience to come forward. The potential trustees are sent an application pack and applications are considered by a panel as to their suitability. There is an interview and only then is a selection made.
Induction and training of trustees
New trustees are given an induction pack all relevant information on the scheme including policies, constitution, and their role. Also past minutes of meetings and financial information are provided. They spend time with the Manager and the Chair of the scheme, and they are assigned another Trustee as a mentor. As a new Trustee it is expected that they will attend the Home Start UK trustee training.

Objectives and activities
Objects and aims
The Objects of the Charity are:
a) to safeguard, protect and preserve the good health, both mental and physical of children and parents of children;
b) to prevent cruelty to or maltreatment of children;
c) to relieve sickness, poverty and need amongst children and parents of children; d) to promote the education of the public in better standards of child care; principally but not exclusively within the area of High Peak and its environs.
Objectives, strategies and activities
Home-based, face-to-face support for each family/child, on a weekly basis for approximately 2-hours per session for an average of 6-12 months. Additional support is always available, as and when each family/child needs it. The activities provided are tailored to suit each individual family/child, and include:
1) Assessment and evaluation - to identify the specific difficulties each family is facing and put in place the support they need to overcome them. Volunteers are then matched to families, based on experience, location & complexity of need.
2) Action Planning - an Individual Development Plan (IDP) is agreed with each Family/Person, detailing: - their skills and abilities, and skills required; levels of stress, anxiety, motivation and wellbeing, their levels of literacy and numeracy; how we will address their problems; and how they can build on their strengths and overcome their weaknesses.
3) Home-based Practical Support is provided for each individual family/parent/child.
Families/children are also signposted/referred to and/or supported to attend appointments with specialist support organisations for additional help with disabilities, health conditions, mental health problem, experience of the care service, child development/behavioural problems, domestic violence, learning difficulties, finance, and budget advice etc.
As well as self - referrals we receive referrals from our well-established partner organisations across the High Peak region and surrounding communities, including specialist support charities, Social Services, Derbyshire County Council, and the NHS.
We also raise awareness of our project through social media, professional contacts, information placement and community events.
An essential element of our work is to actively engage and involve our beneficiaries as much as possible, in the co-design, development, delivery and continuous delivery of the services we provide. This is achieved through consultation workshops, focus groups and questionnaires, to ensure our beneficiaries are involved in any decisions that affect them.
Public benefit
We are local people, supporting local people and building the strength and resilience within the community of High Peak and surrounding areas.
We help families and children facing mental health problems, disabilities, serious illness, isolation, social exclusion and risk of homelessness, to make significant improvements to their lives.
Page 3
Home-Start High Peak
Trustees' Report
We work with Families to improve their:
-Mental health, well-being, physical health, nutrition, confidence, self-esteem and ability to cope with day-to-day life;
-General life skills e.g., computing, cooking, cleaning, personal hygiene, etc.
-Move on positively with their lives following a time of crisis, a critical moment and/or trauma; -Widen their network of relationships and have access to the support and services available within the community.
We support Parents to:
-Develop the skills they need to give their children the best possible start in life;
-Improve their numeracy/literacy and IT skills;
-Get their immediate finances under control and be able to manage budgets and debt much more effectively;
-Develop skills which will enable them to move towards education, employment, and/or volunteering.
We support Children to:
-Be ready to progress into, resume, and/or maintain their attendance at, nursery and/or school; -Have a much greater understanding about how to respond appropriately to boundaries and routines.
Overall parents and children reduce their feelings of isolation, marginalisation and social exclusion. Our wide-reaching, inclusive, and long-lasting approach benefits all in the High Peak.
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
Achievements and performance
During 2023 to 2024 our achievement was to secure a patchwork of funding. This is from multiple sources, which has enabled us to provide holistic support to meet the needs of not only the family, but also each individual within it. To all our funders we are very grateful, and send a heart felt thank you.
Home Start High Peak's main provision is our 1-1 volunteer support of families in their home, we have some telephone support, and occasional group sessions. Covid restrictions are behind us, however we are still seeing the impact that the pandemic has had on families. This has been made worse by the cost-of-living crisis. Both have had a disproportionate impact on families who were already vulnerable. Budget cuts and the rising thresholds for statutory services have meant that families have fewer places to turn to for face-to-face support, and as a result, the service that we offer is increasingly important, and stretched.
Overwhelmingly, we are successful at home-visiting where our volunteers are offering emotional support to families, alongside practical help, while other common areas include helping parents bond with their children, helping families to get out and about, helping parents learn how to cook meals on a budget, preparing their children for school, and accessing other services and groups.
In 2023 to 2024:
We supported 51 families with 98 children, which the children divided equally to 49 boys and 49 girls. Out of those 51 families:
73% had disability in their family unit
-
67% had debt or financial concerns
-
39% had domestic abuse current or historical
-
22% had parents who were care leavers
20% of families had physical health issues
- 8% had a concern of substance misuse

Trustees' Report
Most families fall into several circumstances highlighted above as percentages. It is increasingly challenging to help families achieve positive outcomes, in the face of circumstances we are unable to control, whether that is disability, additional needs, poverty or access to specialist mental health services. However, year on year we are given positive feedback from the families and referrers we support, so we know that we are making that difference. This shows the importance of working together with other agencies, to ensure families have access to as much appropriate support as possible, for as long as possible. With this our thanks extends to our team of volunteers, and to the staff who go above and beyond in their support of improving the lives of Home Start High Peak families.
Home Start High Peak is grateful to all the funders and those groups and individuals gave donations. The charity's success is from the hard work of the families, volunteers, staff, fund raisers, other supporters who gave their time, and trustees, without whom there would not be a charity.
Financial review
Income and expenditure levels have remained consistent with previous years, and the trustees are happy with this position. We have sufficient funding to cover planned activities and reserves are in place to cover all contingencies, including closure.
Policy on reserves
Trustees have reviewed the requirement for reserves, and recognise the potential exposure of loss of income from key providers. We aim to have sufficient funds to cover 4 months running costs, and potential redundancy costs. Currently we have reserves of £31,900, and we aim to maintain at this level. Our policy is reviewed every 3 years or as required.
Principal risks and uncertainties
Financial risks
The Board has carried out a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and has created a risk register which is updated at least annually. In relation to financial risks we recognise that events such as an unexpected loss of funding, a funding stream reaching its contractual end, failure to recognise over dependency on a limited number of income streams, or having insufficient reserves pose a significant threat to the Charity’s ability to continue its activities. We have systems and procedures to mitigate against these risks, including budgetary controls, comprehensive monitoring and reporting arrangements, and regular review of performance and the reserves policy; we also aim at diversification of funding streams wherever possible.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Home-Start High Peak ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
1 Accounting policies
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
Home-Start High Peak meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
Under the exemption available to smaller charities the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Page 11
Home-Start High Peak
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Equipment 25% straight line
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Restricted income funds are those grants for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
Pensions and other post retirement obligations
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
