YOUTH ACTION AND DIVERSITY TRUST LIMITED
TRUSTEES. REPORT {INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The financial slaternenls have been prepared in a¢cordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the
financial statements and comply with the charty's goveming document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting
and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in
a¢cordance with Ihe Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)"
(effective 1 January 2019}.
Objectives and activities
This has been a very challenging year due to the continuing Cost-of-Living crisis affecting utility and maintenance
costs and the loss of the Parkside Community Centre. Last year we reported the Hurst Community Centre being
returned to the Local Authority and this year in June 2024 we reported issues with the ceiling at the Parkside
Community Centre. The Council investigation took until October 2024 when they instructed us to shut the Cenlre as
the roof had ¢ollapsed and the building declared unsafe. All groups from the Centre were found new venues to carry
on their groups including the Nursery. However the Council made no attempt lo reimburse YADT and we are still
wailing for the surrender of the lease even though the building has been raised lo the ground. This is noted in the
financial review.
In addition to the loss of income from Parkside Communty Centre being closed the Council tried to cut the small
grant we re￿1ve each year as we now had less centres. The grant was never originally linked to the Parkside
Community Centre or the Hurst Community Centre but again reflects the challenging limes we have working with
Bexley Council.
Over the past five years we have made numerous complaints about the Council not providing us with invoices for
Maintenan￿ and utility Costs and despite assurances from the Leader of the Council we still await all 4 quarter bills
for this financial period. This is making it impossible for our Chief Executive and Trustees to be clear about our
financial position and prevents clear cash-flow projections moving forrtard.
At the North Cray Neighbourhood Centre limited activities for young people continued with acc8SS to our sports
facilities and parks. This included regular foolball sessions and sports activities. We have been able lo continue
providing support lo young people and their families living with Autism and ADHD through our Behavioural Support
Service although we have nol been able to support as many hard to reach families as we would like due lo the lack
offunding and lack of partnership work with the Council and CAMHS even though they have a three year waiting list
in some areas. This means that families are left unsupported and desperate for help.
We have been able lo ¢ontinue with the adult support activities providing support with isolation, mental health and
social evenls throughout the year. These services have been dèscribed as a lifeline for senior members of our local
ommunity and provide a social environment for reducing loneliness.
The main focus of this year has been to provide ¢ommunity services through the North Cray Neighbourhood Centre
and the Parkside Community Centre. Whilst the Parkside Community Centre has now closed we have been able to
support more community groups although increasing income generation is limited due to financial pressures on
community groups and hard for YADT to compete with rising costs. There is also a lot of pressure lo get the Council
to complete rnaintenance repairs and we have several issues with heating, air ¢ondilioning, lifis and roof leaks
which remain unresolved.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Achievements and porfomiance
Significant activilies and achievements against objectives
A￿hoUgh a limited amount of youth engagements was completed the Charity slill managed to engage 2268 young
people aged 8 to 12 years in positive activities throu9h our Multi Use Games Area and our playgrounds and 1790
young people aged be￿een 12 and 17 years in positive activilies mainly sport. These activities were provided by
the Charity from ils own resources and are essential in reducing anli-social behaviour and providing space for
young people lo socialise and have fun. The centre also provides a safe haven for young people with Aulism and
ADHD.
The Behavioural support seNice worked with 296 young people and their families providing support with
understanding Autism and ADHD and working to reduce Anger Management. The Servi￿ re¢ieved referrals from
GP Surgeries logether with Schools and Colleges.
Throughout the year 106 young people were engaged through our workshops on cooking, cor¢fidence drama and
sports completing over 676 hours of engagement. The Behavioural Support Service also engaged with 47 families
through parental workshops fo¢using on Autism, Anger Management and ADHD and completing over 470 hours of
learning.
The adult services completed over 2614 engagements through social clubs, games clubs and Coffee mornings
reducing isolation and stimulating mental wellbeing for senior members of our local community and running
throughout the year.
These are amazing achievements considering the financial constraints and the fact that these serVi￿S were
provided through the Charities own resources and without Council support or partnership work.
Financial reviow
In¢ome for this financial year has been challenging because of the dosure of the Parkside Community Centre at the
end of October resulling in a loss of circa £12000 income.
The Trustees have also been astounded by the lack of Council support and their desire to cut the grant in Bexley
due to the Parkside Centre being closed by the council who failed to maintain the building and were very quick to
pull it down.
The North Cray Neighbourhood Centre continue to provide steady income and considerable effort has been made
to reduce wsls in all areas. This has been challenging due to the utility costs remaining high and large increases in
local ALrthorily Costs across the board. The year ahead remains challenging as costs continue to remain high and it
is important that the Charity maximises hire of the venuès to bring in new income streams.
However this is further ¢ompounded by the Council failing to provide maintenance and utility invoices for the year
resutting in challenges for th8 Charity in ¢ash-flow and budgeting the tharity accounts. It is very difficult to raise
costs to groups who are themselves financially challenged when the council ¢onlinues lo raise costs, fails to
produce timely invoicing and shows no commitment to community partnership work.
The Charity was able to provide some support to young people and their families through the Behavioural Support
Servio using existing Charity funds and maintained the Adull se￿ICeS after the London and Quadrant funding
period ended. The overall support has reduced as the Charity has multiple challenges with costs. unknown council
maintenance and utility costs and a cost of living crisis.
The total funds carried forward as of 31 March 2025 amount to £30,033. The Trustees have examined the Charity
requirements for reserves in the light of the main risk to the organisation and are of the opinion that this is sufficient
to meet the fijture working capital requirements.

YOUTH ACTION AND DIVERSITY TRUST LIMITED
TRUSTEES. REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT) {CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Plans for future perlods
It is important that we recognise the financial challenges ahead as the Charity struggles to meet financial costs
whilst balancing a reasonable income stream from the hire of our venues. This means there will be challenging
decisions to be made around staff numbers and the continuation of existing seNices provided by the Charity. It also
means thal outstanding works may be delayed if funding is not available e.g. repair to parks, redecoration and
maintenance.
The Trustees are furious over the Council lack of support and lack of professionalism in raising invoices and
(ieclaring costs. This leaves the Charity vulnerable as we cannot darify financial positions or proj8Ct cash-flow
demands moving forward.
YADT is keen to continue our own youth activities and parent workshops for the coming year and to continue our
support groups and Behavioural Support Services expanding this to meet the increasing demand for mentsl health
support for young people and their families as well as providing fun activities.
However this will be subject to financial constraints and servitss may be limited if costs continue to Tise. We will
also be looking to maintain our work with adults reducing isolation and loneliness and helping older people to
engage in social and physical activities to improve wellbeing.
The Trustees feel extremely let down by Bexley Council and for the first time have realistically had to ¢onsider
whether the charily can Continue to work in Bexley faced with suth serious issues.
