LinkAble Wokirig Annual Report April 2024 lo March 2025

Foreword
Colin Evans, Chair of Trustees
As LinkAble embarks a bold
new chapter, Colin looks back
on a year to remember.
When l introduced last yearfs Annual Repo
I described 2023124 as a "pivotal yearf for
growth and new beginnings-and 2024125
has certainly delivered on that momentum.
It has been heartening to see how our team,
volunteers, and supporters have come
together to make real progress possible.
The achievements of this year demonstrate
not only growth but also the depth of care
and commitment at the heart of LinkAble.
One of the highlights of the year was securing
funding for an additional minibus, which has
already made a significant difference to our
After School Club and wider services by:
• improving accessibility
• making it easier for CYP to attend
• allowing us to support more families
• enabling more group days Out
Another standout moment was our
Paralympic Community Fun Day, a vibrant
event that brought together people with a
learning disability, autistic people, their
families, our supporters, and partner
organisations for a day of accessible sports.
The event served as a brilliant showcase of
what LinkAble stands for- inclusion,
friendship, and the opportunity to engage in
new and exciting experiences.
Looking ahead, we remain optimistic about
the future, confident in our team and
supporters, while also recognising that
challenges will lie ahead due to a difficult
funding landscape and ever-increasing
demands on our services.
LlnkAble's support hours for
children, young people (CVP), and
adults have increased by around
So % compared to the previous
year. It's the most ever delivered!
This growth reflects the expansion of our
services, including a new After School Club,
which supports two SEND schools, and the
launch of a Sunday Playscheme in Esher.
Across all ages, we have introduced
additional sessions, and Adult daytime
services now operate four days a week,
providing more opportunities for learning,
social connection, and new experiences.
We have also made steady progress in
modernising and integrating our IT systems,
upgrading both hardware and software to
improve data management and
communication across all services.
Expected to conclude within the next 12
months, this project will streamline
operations, reduce admin, and support
effective, joined-up service delivery.
In my role as Chair, I contlnue to
be inspired by the dedication of
our staff, volunteers, and
supporters, whose hard work
ensures LinkAble remains a
thriving, supportive community.

Q&AXK
Sue Stockman, LinkAble CEO
After the first year in post as
LinkAble's CEO, Sue reflects on
an exciting year of change.
How has the year been for LinkAble7
In a word-busyl We've grown a lot over the
past year, and LinkAble feels like a different
organisation now. We've welcomed new staff,
refreshed our activities, upgraded our digital
systems, and streamlined some of the fiddly
processes that used to take up so much time.
We're now running much more efficiently.
This has been a year of strengthening
LinkAble's foundations to ensure that our
ambitious plans will stand the test of time.
What new activities or services has
LinkAble introduced this yeart
An exciting addition is our new After School
Club, running four days a week. We've also
expanded to Esher, launching a Sunday
Playscheme to reach more families.
Evenings and weekends have been buzzing
too, with new activities like Food and Friends
for teens, Boccia for adults, Mini Mayhem
disco parties for children, overnight stays,
and our first week-long holiday in years!
How will LinkAble enter 2026?
With cautious optimism. Like many small
charities, we're navigating funding cuts, a
challenging fundraising environment, as well
as increased demand for our services.
We know the road ahead won't be easy.
A restructure has introduced new leadership,
bringing expanded skills, fresh ideas, and
renewed energy. Alongside them, our
dedicated services staff continue to show
incredible commitment and passion.
Looking ahead, a key priority is reducing
reliance on statutory funding, We are
developing a range of chargeable, subsidised
and free services to help us respond flexibly
while meeting the needs of our families.
It's an excitlng path, on which
we'll tread carefully• consulting
with our team and attendees to
build services that create a lasting
impact for our community.
We're now a more dynamic
charity with a skilled team,
solid training programme, and
a strong focus on measuring
the real impact of our work.
How has LinkAble helped families?
Parents say that we are the organisation able
to support challenging behaviour. I believe
this is due to the specialist training we have
implemented over the last year. Increasingly,
we're being recognised as the provider
capable of meeting all needs through our
1-2-1 model of support which ensures every
attendee receives focused, consistent care.
Do you have a highlight of the yeart
Definitely our Paralympics Community Fun
Day. It was inclusive, joyful, and had a big
impact on the community, all while raising
LinkAble's profile. It was such a success that
we're planning to make it an annual event!

URREY
A new community event for LinkAble.
In August 2024, we brought the Paralympics to
Woking! Inspired by the 2024 Paris Paralympic
Games, we held our own version called the
LinkAble Paralympics and Community Fun Day.
Organised in partnership with Freedom Leisure
and supported by a generous £2,500 grant from
Sport England, the event brought the local
community together to enjoy accessible sports
followed by a medal ceremony.
Participants of all ages and abilities took part in
Boccia, Walking Football, and Accessible Cycling,
in friendly, and welcoming atmosphere.
A special thanks to Wheels for All for leading
the cycling sessions and to our corporate
partner The Fidelis Foundation for keeping
everyone refreshed with a water station.
The event was a brilliant success, drawing over
100 attendees, some of whom experienced
accessible sports for the first time. Since then,
we've been thrilled to see that several
attendees have joined our newly launched
Boccia Club, which was inspired by the games.

Over the past year, we continued
supporting children on Saturdays and
during school holidays with fun, engaging,

forward for LinkAble, we also launched a
brand-new After School Club!
Now, four days a week, we collect children
from two local SEND schools for afternoons
of creative activities, sensory play, and
energetic fun-plus a light meal to keep them

In January 2025, we expanded our reach by
launching a Sunday playscheme in Esher, our
first children's provision outside Woking.
With funding from Surrey County Council, we
piloted several new initiatives, including a
siblings group, soft play stay-and-play
sessions, and support for a local nursery to
include children with additional needs.
We also ran our first weekend away at Surrey
Outdoor Learning, helping children develop
independence and giving families a proper
break-and the rare chance of a night out!

Meet Chester
Mum, Alison looks back on
the difference that flue
years of attending LinkAble
has made for her family.
My son Chester is 10 and has attended
LinkAble since he was 5. He has autism,
ADHD, and a rare chromosome condition
that causes global developmental delay.
At the moment, Chester isn't in school. He
used to attend a SEND school, but they
struggled to meet his growing needs,
particularly as he's been finding it harder to
manage his anger as he's getting older.
This has been challenging for us as a family
and takes a huge amount of time and energy.
Chester needs attention from both me and
his dad, but we also need to ensure his 13-
year-old brother, Frankie, feels supported too
This is why LinkAble is so important: it gives
us precious time and provides Chester with
structure, understanding, and a sense of
belonging we've struggled to find elsewhere.
66
LinkAble is the only place where I've
never been called to collect Chester
early. I cannot overstate how
important this isl When I drop him
off, I know he'll be there for the full
session and that he will have a
brilliant time.
Those few guaranteed hours give me a
chance to get weekly tasks done, spend time
with Frankie, or just rest for a moment
without worrying. This rest time supports
every member of our family. When you have a
child with additional needs, it impacts the
whole family, but LinkAble gives us balance
so that we are a strong and happy unit.
66
I love taking Chester to LinkAble as I
can see him light up the moment we
arrive. The staff really understand
him and know what helps him feel
calm, safe, and happy. It's one of the
few places where Chester's needs
are fully met and he can be himself.
66
LinkAble gives Chester a sense of
belonging and a place where he feels
valued and included. For us, we have
great peace of mind knowing we can
trust LinkAble.
Before we found LinkAble, there really wasn't
anywhere suitable for Chester to go. We don't
have help nearby, so getting any kind of
break was difficult. At times, we felt
exhausted and isolated, but I can honestly
say that things feel different now.
It would be such a loss for Chester if he
couldn't attend. For our family, LinkAble isn't
just a service. It's a lifeline.

Next steps
Actiultles and experiences for
young people aged 12-17 to
develop and strengthen
practical skills for adulthood.
Linkable is, outside of school, our
child's social outlet. It is a lifeline
for us as it facilitates a break
with peace of mind that our child
is having fun, gaining skills and
being well cared for.
Our Next Steps sessions run on Saturday4
weekday evenings, and during school
holidays. They support young people to
make friends, develop life skills, and gain
confidence for independent living.
To ensure that everyone can take part, we run
two Saturday groups on alternate weeks-one
for more independent young people and one
for those who need extra support.
At our centre and out in the community,
young people learn practical skills like:
using public transport
handling money and paying for things
using services like cafés and libraries.
They work towards badges which recognise
their achievements in areas like fire safety,
first aid, and animal care- which are proudly
shown to parents at pick up time.
This year, we launched 'Food and Friends,,
a new evening youth group focused on
socialising and sharing a meal together.
It complements our much-loved 'ASD Game
Night,, where autistic young people can
relax, play games, and connect.
Together, these evening youth groups
offer vital social opportunities for young
people who might otherwise feel isolated.

Meet Jack
Mum, Nicky shares how the
social opportunities at
LinkAble have supported.
Jack to thrive.
When my son Jack was born, we were told he
wouldn't walk, talK or feed himself.
Well, how he proved everyone wrong! Jack is
a determined young man who continues to
amaze us all and l am so grateful for the role
LinkAble has played in his life.
Jack is 18 years old and has a rare
chromosomal disorder called Tetrasomy 18p.
This causes global developmental delay
meaning that he needs a huge amount of
support from me, which greatly impacts our
whole family. Because I need to spend more
of my time supporting Jack, his younger
brother Alfie (15), can feel frustrated, as of
course, he needs my support too.
For Jack, LinkAble is a place where he knows
he belongs. He loves the activities, and he
always enjoys himself. The social
opportunities for him there are so important.
66
He gets to have a bit of banter, make
friends, and just have fun In a way
that might not be possible
elsewhere. I think people can
underestimate how important this is
for people with a learning disability-
to have a place where you can be
accepted for being who you are.
66
Thankfullyi LinkAble has taken some
of the pressure off our family. Over
the10 years that Jack has been
attendin8,1've been able to give
Alfie dedicated 1-2-1 time with me.
LinkAble has given Jack opportunities to
grow, learn, and be part of something special.
It's not just about keeping him busy, it's
about making sure he feels valued, included,
and confidenL
As a family, LinkAble gives us a needed
break. We can do things that are difficult to
do with Jack, like going to the cinema or
taking a long dog walk. It gives us freedom
while knowing Jack is safe and happy.
LinkAbLe has been absolutely incredible for
Jack's development. It has really helped him
grow in confidence and find his voice.
He's become more outspoken and loves
being around the staff and other young
people. I love knowing he has a community.
Honestly, I can't imagine life without
LinkAble. It would feel much more
restricted-not just for Jack, but for
our whole family.

It's been a year of steady growth for
LinkAble's adult services. In March 2024,

Fundraising
A moment to celebrate our
fantastic community of
supporters who go aboue
and beyond for LinkAble.
We are incredibly fortunate to have the
continued support of local community
groups, companies, and charitable trusts
all of whom play a vital role in helping
LinkAble deliver nearly 40,000 hours of
support for families in 2024125. Without this
generosityi we simply would not be able to
run these critical services for our familie%
In a challenging fundraising climate, we are
proud to have secured both statutory and
voluntary grant income, which is essential for
meeting the growing demand for our services.
We remain deeply grateful to the many trusts
that have supported our work.
The Fidelis Partnership hosted a Curry Night
in aid of LinkAble, raising £1902. The event
generated a brilliant sum and introduced
new people to our work. We were extremely
grateful for this additional support, on top of
the exceptional generosity we have already
received through our ongoing partnership.
This year marked LinkAble's second year as
the chosen charity for Ottershaw Wl, which
proved a tremendous success, raising £6,823
and increasing awareness of our work in the
wider community.
A huge thank you to NHS Professionals at
Duke's Court for their fantastic fundraising
efforts. Having chosen LinkAble as their
Charity of the Year, they have partnered with
a group of our adult attendees on a series of
fundraising bake sales.
Looking ahead, we're excited to have joined
the Run 4 Charity platform, opening up new
opportunities for individuals to raise funds
by taking part in challenge events. We hope
this initiative will grow into a sustainable
new income stream for the charity.
Thanks to a(I these collective efforts, we can

Q & A with Emily Lake, LinkAble's
Senior Adult Services Team Leader
Tell us about your time at LinkAble so far.
I've worked at LinkAble for 7 years, starting as
a Sessional Play Worker, then progressing to
Deputy and Group Leader roles. At 18,1 began
working with adult groups, later leading a
variety of sessions before being promoted to
Senior Adult Services Team Leader. It's been
a brilliant experience which has given me
such a wide range of skillsl
What's your favourite part of thejob?
Building real, meaningful connections with
those we support. Seeing people grow in
confidence, try something new, or simply
enjoy a happy moment is incredibly
rewarding. Every day is different, and every
small breakthrough feels worth celebrating.
What have you learnt during your time
working at LinkAble?
I've learnt the true meaning of person-
centred support- empowering people with a
learning disability to take control of their
lives, celebrate their individuality and pursue
their own goals.
••
Small moments of encouragement,
connection, and understanding can have a
lasting impact. Independence and confidence
look different for everyone, and success
means celebrating progress, big or small.
Those I support show me the value of creating
space for every voice and the power of being
present, consistent, and kind.
What do you wish more people understood
about having a learning disability or autism?
Having a learning disability or autism doesn't
mean someone isn't capable. Everyone has
strengths, abilities, and potential. They may
just communicate, learn, or process the world
differently. With the right support, patience,
and understanding, people with additional
needs can thrive. we see it every day.

apart is the support, care, and
cooperation of the staff. Their
understanding and consistent
encouragement have been crucial.
It's one of the few places where
Hannah feels genuinely included
and valued-and that peace of mind
means the world to me as a parent."

Financial review
The Statement of Financial Activities for the year ended 31st March 2025 shows a surplus of
£124,718, consisting of (£44,860) unrestricted deficit, a restritted surplus of £34,578 and an
expendable endowment surplus of £135,000.
Income
Total income increased by 62% during the year to E971.984 (2024:E600,431). This included a
one-off expendable endowment grant of £135,000; excluding that grant, the underlying
increase in income was 39% during 2024-25.
Total income increased due to Income from Charitable activities has increased by 52 % to
£590,092 (2024:£388,754). This is due to an increase in contract funding from Surrey County
Council that enabled us to grow our services including an After School Club and Sunday
Scheme.
Expenditure
Total expenditure increased by 41% during the year to £847,266 (2024:£600,837). This is
linked to expansion in service delivery and resulting staff costs. This increase in cost also
reflects the increasing level of support required by many of the children and young people
attending groups who require 1-1 support. Staff costs have risen by 29Yo to £601,652 (2024:
£465,090). This included costs relating to a restructure of the management team to plan for
future growth and diversification of services.
Reserve8
Reserves are held to ensure the continuity of service provision as well as enabling LinkAble
to take advantage of opportunities when they arise. On 31st March 2025, LinkAble's reserves
were £332,915 (2024:£208,197) of which £137,837 (£182.697) was unrestricted. Of this, £10,306
has been designated to the Fixed Asset Reserve. Additionally, £135,000 is held as an
Expendable Endowment Reserve.
LinkAble's reserves policy is to maintain free reserves of between 3 to 6 months operating
costs to allow for short term fluctuations in cash requirements. The current level of free
reserves is £127,531 which represents approximately 2 months operating costs, a little below
the required level set by the policy. The terms of the expendable endowment mean we are
entitled to draw down funding to bring our unrestricted reserves up to the required level,
transferring them from the expendable endowment fund however the Trustees have
decided to leave the funds in the expendable endowment reserve for the year ended 31st
March 2025 and will consider a transfer in the current financial year.
The trustees review the reserves policy annually to ensure it is set at the appropriate level.

structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
LinkAble is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles
of Association which establishes its objects, powers and governing rules. We are regulated by the Charity
Commission and adhere to its guidance regarding effective governance.
Governance Structure
LinkAble has a Board of up to 15 Trustees, although we are currently operating with 9. The Trustee Board meets
periodically through the year to set LinkAble's strategy and discuss the progress of previously approved
projects. The Trustee Board delegates work to 7 committees - Finance, People, Property, Fundraisin& Marketing,
Risk & Governance and Programmes.
The day-to-day management of the organisation is carried out by the CEO who is accountable to the Trustees,
who carry ultimate legal responsibility for the Charity.
Recrultment and Appointment of Trustees
LinkAble has a formal recruitment policy and appointment process under which potential candidates are
considered and selected. New Trustees are identified in a number of ways including advertising and targeted
recruitment. The Trustee Board regularly reviews its collective skills and experience against the needs of the
Charity's business to ensure that it has appropriate expertise to enable the Charity to deliver its objectives.
Several Trustees have left, and several have joined this year resulting in 9 Trustees at the time of issue of this
report.
Trustee Inductlon and Tralnlng
LinkAble has a programme of induction and training for Trustees that is set out in the Trustee Recruitment and
Appointment Policy.
Risk Management
The trustees take seriously their responsibility for ensuring the safe, secure and professional operation of the
Charity. With the assistance of the management team, we maintain and regularly review a risk register, which
identifies the key risks to which the charity is or could be exposed. The risk register is based on the Charity
Commission's template and guidance. The trustees consider that the principal challenges faced by LinkAble
and the associated risks are the need to:
Continue to support adults and children with learning disabilities
Operate within set budgets
Generate sufficient income to support the cost of service delivery thus minimising the cost to service users,
LinkAble has established measures to control and mitigate the likelihood and impact of risks identified in the
risk register which is regularly reviewed by committees and the Board. Operational risks are managed through
appropriate policies and training, and form part of a regular report to the Trustees from the CEO. Financial risk
is managed through policies, budgeting, and reporting., in addition, the financial risks and implications of any
proposal are carefully reviewed before a decision is reached.
Although supported by the CEO and the Risk and Governance committee, final responsibility for the
management of risk rests with the Trustee Board.

The Trustees (who are also the Directors of LinkAble Woking Limited for the purposes of company law) are
responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom

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 charitable company and of the incoming resources and
application of resources, including the income and expenditure 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 Charity Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP);
• make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the

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. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the
charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of frauds and other
irregularities

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) (effective 1 January 2015)-
{Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)
and the Companies Act 2006.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transartion value unless otherwise stated in
the relevant accounting policy or note.
The Trustees consider that there are no significant areas of estimation or judgement.
b) Public beneflt entlty
The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
c) Going concern
At the balance sheet date of 31 March 2025, LinkAble had net assets of £332,915 and in the year ending 31 March
2025 income exceeded expenditure by £124,718. The Trustees have assessed projected future income streams
and expenditure over the period to December 312026. This has included consideration of anticipated service
delivery, possible changes to local authority funding and challenges faced in securing fundraising income. The
Trustees have considered plans along with internal processes and systems for managing financial and
operational risks. The Trustees have concluded that the strength of the CharIt￿S reserves and liquidity of its
assets, mean the charity has adequate resources to continue their activities for the foreseeable future, and
that there are no material uncertainties about the charit￿5 ability to continue as a going concern.
d) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to
the income have been mel it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be
measured reliably.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income
recognition are met.
e) Fund accounting
Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor within the objectives of the
charity. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.
Unrestricted funds are donations and other income received or generated for the charitable purposes
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party,
it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of undertaken to further the purposes of the charity
and their associated support costs.
g) Allocation of support costs
Expenditure is allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates direttly to that activity. However, the
cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the
central function, is apportioned on a basis consistent with the use of relevant resources.

LINKABLE WOKING LIMITED
Notes to the Financial Ststements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
h) Tangible fixed assets

its estimated useful life at the following rates
Plant and machinery- 5 years
Fixtures and fittings -
5 years
Computer equipment- 3 years
Motor vehicles~
5 years
l) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount
offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments. Cash balances exclude
any funds held on behalf of service users.
Creditors and provislons
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past
event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the
obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their
settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. The charity only has financial assets and
financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are
initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the
exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.

Financial Activities as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
