BEACON SOUTH YORKSHIRE LTD

TRUSTEES’ REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Structure, governance and management

Beacon South Yorkshire Ltd is a registered charity with the Charity Commission and a company limited by guarantee, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, dated March 2005, most recently amended April 2016. Formerly Barnsley Beacon Support Services, the charity changed its name on 15 December 2017, following a rebrand and expansion of services outside of Barnsley.

The company has no share capital and the liability of each member in the event of winding-up is limited to a sum not exceeding £1. The affairs of the charity are managed by the trustees who may exercise all the powers of the charity. The trustees delegate day-to-day management of the charity to Lynda McDermott, Funding & Services Manager.

Appointment of trustees

The trustees are also directors of the company for the purpose of company law. The trustees are elected at the Annual General Meeting.

Trustee training & induction

New trustees are given a copy of the volunteer’s handbook containing information about the organisation and internal policies/procedures. During the year all trustees completed training relevant to the role.

Risk management

The trustees keep a risk register which is reviewed regularly. A major risk is the loss of funding to pay for the manager’s post and to continue the operational running of the charity. The financial position and level of reserves is reviewed at each trustee meeting and funding applications are ongoing. For other areas, systems are in place to manage the risks and to lessen the possible impacts.

Charitable aims and objectives

The principle objectives of the charity are to relieve the suffering and needs of parents and carers, primarily but not exclusively, of drug users by:

Public Benefit Statement

In shaping the objectives for the year the trustees have paid due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Chair’s Report on Activities undertaken for the public benefit

This has been another busy and satisfying year here at Beacon South Yorkshire (BSY). The whole team has come together and share a desire to; Connect, Support, and give Hope to the carers of the community. Trustees, staff, and volunteers continue to support the charity to be the best it can be, and I am proud to be part of this supporting and welcoming environment for carers of the community.

Emotionally supporting carers through a vast array of activities including:

All of the above have been possible thanks to a variety of funders but mostly to the National Lottery Community Fund who have been extremely supportive over the last year, with special thanks to my grant officers over this period and to all National Lottery players. Staff continue to cover additional hours to offer more flexibility with appointments as BSY continues to grow and expand.

Thanks to The Henry Smith Charity, BSY have secured 3 years funding to expand into Rotherham. The service continues to grow, making positive connections with local authority services, as well as third sector organisations. I am grateful to the team in Rotherham for their dedication and passion to support the carers of the Rotherham community.

As Chair of trustees, and on behalf of all the trustees here at Beacon South Yorkshire, another massive thank you to everyone involved in supporting the carers of South Yorkshire. The volunteers continue to give their time, experience and care to other carer’s in their time of need, some of which are still in a caring role. Everyone here at BSY works with empathy, compassion and give carers hope for the future. BSY continue to signpost across Barnsley, Rotherham, and the surrounding areas when any carer contacts the office.

BSY, also wishes to thank other supporters:

Many thanks go out to:

In addition, thanks to our fabulous fundraiser, and to carers who kindly donate raffle prizes, we are truly grateful.

A big thank you to our partner, FareShare Yorkshire, who continues to supply us with good quality food to distribute on a weekly basis, helping carers who are struggling.

BSY continues to use the private group Space4Carers online which has increased in the last year. We know social media platforms are the way forward and aim to keep this current and interesting, hoping to engage younger carer’s transitioning into adult services. The organisation has been fortunate to retain a university student who came on placement and has continued to volunteer which has increased our online presence.

BSY continue to receive excellent and positive feedback from the carers accessing services. The whole team should be very proud of themselves. All session data is entered into Lamplight database, funded through the National Lottery Community Fund.

BSY have seen an increase in demand for both support and counselling sessions across South Yorkshire, to raise awareness of the service and work in collaboration, making more connections across both boroughs. Our Counselling Lead works across both Barnsley & Rotherham and links with local colleges to give students in their final year, the opportunity to work voluntarily, giving them the experience they need in a working environment. The trustees would like to thank every student for their time with BSY’s carers.

Relaxation and holistic therapies continue to be well attended; we are very grateful to the therapists at both branches for giving their time to help others relax in a lovely atmosphere. One therapist completed Reflexology training which is now offered.

All sessions over the past year have been well attended, due to the waiting lists (at some periods of the year) carers are now offered therapies and wellbeing calls to keep them connected while waiting for a support worker or student counsellor – this is proving useful. Weekly mindfulness sessions have a very good attendance rate and is growing nicely, with excellent feedback. Yoga sessions have been a little up and down although at present they are doing well, we thank Willow Tree Mindful Yoga for their support. Craft and Chat sessions were introduced, and again very positive feedback has been received.

Senior management have been working with an external consultant to identify areas of development through partnership and collaboration with referral organisations, both statutory and third sector. Senior management have also worked closely with the accountant and thank them for their time.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Training completed over the past 12 months:

Senior team members continue to attend the Barnsley Carers Strategy where lots of groups come together with carers to help shape the strategy. The Rotherham team attend the above also.

BSY continues to provide food parcels in partnership with FareShare Yorkshire to help alleviate food poverty and hardship in the current times and due to the cost-of-living crisis. BSY now have an agreement to distribute frozen goods. We are grateful to the volunteers that attend weekly to distribute this to carers.

BSY continue to recruit staff and volunteers through the website, inhouse, Barnsley CVS, Indeed, Barnsley Chronicle, Voluntary Action Rotherham, and the Rotherham Advertiser.

We continue to use Moorside Tech for all our IT support needs, phones and laptops and thank them again for supporting the charity.

The annual sponsored walk was at Cannon Hall where adults and children attended, some in fancy dress with a voucher for the winner. Thank you to all who attended and all who sponsored.

The trustees thank the landlord at Parkgate Mobility for his continued support and installing emergency lighting.

The charity’s policy on reserves

As a small charity, reliant on public and charitable funding, we are susceptible to factors beyond our control. Beacon trustees recognise that a certain level of funds need to be maintained to give the organisation stability to continue the running of services for the carers of the Borough. Reserves are also needed so that the charity can meet all statutory obligations in the event of winding up. The Trustees aim to hold reserves equivalent to 3 months running costs, plus a provision of £30,000 for redundancy and other closure costs. In 2023-24 this equates to approximately £70,000.

At the year-end, the unrestricted reserve was £51,496 (2022: £56,910). The trustees are working towards bringing reserves in line with the agreed policy within the next few years.

Related parties

Related party transactions are detailed on page 16 of this report. The trustees consider that there are no other related parties to the charity.

Funds in deficit

There are currently no funds in deficit.

Statement of trustee’s responsibilities

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity at the end of the year and of the surplus or deficiency for the year then ended. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them on a consistent basis, making judgements and estimates that are prudent and reasonable. The trustees must also prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charity, and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

Financial Position

The financial statements are set out in pages 10 to 18. The charity received total income of £221,219 in this financial year (2023: £230,605). Grants make up over 90% of total income, full details of grants received during the year are provided on page 14 of this report. Total expenditure for the year was £223,680, giving a small deficit for the year of £2,461 (2023: a surplus of £20,838). The total funds at the year-end stand at £78,977 (2023: £81,438).

The general reserve of the charity, represented by unrestricted funds, stands at £51,496 at the year-end (2023: £56,910).

Small company provisions:

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

Exemptions

The trustees have taken advantage of the exemptions available to small companies, including the audit exemption.

The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

I report on the accounts of the charity, which are set out on pages 10 to 18.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

I have no concerns and I 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

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1. Accounting policies

Basis of the preparation of the accounts

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 (FRS102) – (Charities SORP (FRS102)) and the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in pounds sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

The charity 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 note(s).

Income and expenditure has been analysed in the accounts using natural classification, in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.6, SORP (smaller charities). The charity also meets the requirements for exemption from preparing a statement of cash flows.

Going Concern Note

The trustees regularly review the financial position of the charity and its reserves. The charity is in receipt of a 5 year grant from the National Lottery Community Fund, which will fund all major services in Barnsley until March 2025. A three year grant has been secured from Henry Smith to establish the service in Rotherham which was received in May 2023. Funding applications for other activities are ongoing and the charity has been successful in securing a number of small grants. Preparation for an application to the National Lottery for continuation funding is in progress. The charity has a healthy reserve.

In view of the above, the trustees have reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and deem it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Incoming resources

All material incoming resources have been included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to the income, when any performance conditions attached are met, when it is probable that the income will be received and when the amount can be measured reliably.

Donated goods and services

Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts at the amount the charity would pay in the open market for a service equivalent to that being donated, when the charity would otherwise have purchased them and the value can be measured reliably.

Donated goods for the charity’s own use are recognised as income, at their fair value.

The contribution of general volunteers is not recognised as income in the charity accounts.

Resources Expended

All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised as a liability is incurred. The charity is not registered for VAT and accordingly resources expended are shown gross of irrecoverable VAT.

Taxation

Beacon South Yorkshire Ltd is a registered charity and is exempt from UK corporation tax on income from its charitable activities.

Funds Structure

The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity.

Restricted funds have been provided to the charity for particular purposes and may only be spent for the purposes for which they were given. Any balance remaining outstanding on a restricted fund at the end of the year is carried forward as a balance on the fund, unless permission has been given by the funder to remove the restriction on the balance outstanding.

Funds relating to capital expenditure are transferred to a designated fund against which depreciation is charged.
