Our Impact We have a CRM databasè where we record detai18 of the families we 8UPPOrt and use il to plan the support we offer, as V11 as record activilies a famity undertakes with us such as attendance at wellbelng days or family activities. We use this too to tell the stories ol those we have worked wlth through case studies. We also undertake a survey annually. In our last famlly supiey. we asked families what they had gained (or not) from the support and service we provide. These were some of the responses: • 'Support and someone who lislens. People who understand not feeling judged, • .1 felt supported and heard wlth no judgment and could express how I felt and was safe do this in the way I needed to,. • '1 feel less depressed and I have been helped practically by the good advice, • 'Days out with my kids and support when l am out with them.

They are a great help and l appreciate everything out there has done to help m• and my family Good support. Non-judgemental. Practical plus wellbeing support They have helped in every way they can and even more been there when I've needed someone to talk to As well as our annual survey we use an outcome wheel with th8 families we support, as an aid to our support discussions and to help look at the impact of our work. Specifically, we look at how people feel after accessing our sèrvices in terms of two measures". Emotional wellbeing - whether people feel their emotional wallb8ing has improved after accessing our support & if it is maintained. Isolation- whether people feel less isolated or not. Developing this tool has been a learning cUe for us as a small organisation, we are careful not to let using the wheel get in the way of building trust and offering support and sorne family members are not always keen to discuss all Issues, especlally early on due to feeling overwhelmed. But over the last yèar, the outcome wheel has demonstrated our impact against two Important metrics, the emotional wellbeing of Ihose we support and their feelings of isolation. In the last year, families that had worked with us were asked in a 3 month follow-up about their emotional wellbeing and hovj isolated Ihey felt: 80% scored th•lr wollb•lng as belng Improvod and f••llng less so¢lally Isolat. In iemis of our work with children and young people, we use the child impaot assessment to look at the work we do with the child, and in the last year 909/0 of children and young peopla who have completed a program of dIrt work in school, reported an improvement in their wellbelng and met their goals that were set out during the Child Impact Assessment Partnershlp Work Over the last year wo have continued to develop our approach to working with others: We are now working as part of a partnership project to support people on probation in Trafford, delivered in partneTship with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, Probation, and the Big Life Group.

We are delighted that we are now playing our rol8 in a wider system to help those who have had contact with the criminal justice system thus hopefulty reducing the impact on community and famlly. In addition to our Hub buildlng belng used by us, Probation, the Big Life Group, Women Matta, and the Altrincham Counselling and Fafflily Centre now use the Space.

Resoms and flnanclal posltlon The trustees have examined the requirement for free reserves i.e. those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed assets, or otherwise committed.

The trustees are of the oplnion that this level of reserves should provide sufficient flexibilty to cover temporary shortfalls in income due, for exafflple, to falls in voluntary income or delays In getting grant funding approved. Total funds at 31 March 2024 8munled to £78,380 (2023 - £104,688). Restricted funds comprise monies given for specrfic purposes and amounted to £75,633 at 31 March 2024 (2023- £108,355).

In preparing the financial statements. the trustees are responsible for assessing the charltsble company's ability to continue as a going concem, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either inland to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Audltor'8 responslbllltlos for tho audlt of lh• flnanclal statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance 18 a high lev81 of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audrt conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Mi8Statements can arise from fraud or error and are considered materlal If, indNidually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expKled lo Influence the economlc declslons of users taken on the basis of these financlal statemenls. Irregularftles. Includlng fraud, are instances of non<ompliance with laws and regulations. We desun procedures in line wilh our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material mlsstatements in respect of irregularllles, including fraud. The extent to whlch our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities. including fraud is detailed below,. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misststement In respect of irregularities, including fraud and non<ompliance with laws and regulations, was as follows., we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charitable company through discussions with managemant, and from our knowledge and experienc8 of the sector,. we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on th8 financlal slatements or the operations of the charftable company, includSng the Companies Act 2006, the Charlties Act 2011, Accounting and Reporting by Charilies: Statement of Recomm8nded Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Flnancial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP FRS 102), and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ir818nd (FRS 102).. we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and re9ulalions identified above through makin9 enquiries of management and inspecting correspondence; identified laws and regulations were communicaled within the audit team and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit., Out There Supporting Families of Prisoners Limited 20
Ind8pand•nt audftor's report Year to 31 March 2024 Audltor's rosponslbllltles for the audit of the flnanclal Stalemonts (continued) making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud: and considering the intemal controls In place to mStlgate risks of fraud and nonompliance with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through manag&mont bias and override of controls. we: performed analytical procedures to idenlify any unusual or unexpected relationships., tested journal entries to Identify unusual transactions: assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates sèt out in the accounting pollcles were Indlcats've of potential bias,. and invesligated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were nol limited to: agreelng financial statement disclosures to underlylng supportlng documentation; reading minutes of meetings of those charged wilh govemance; and enqulrlng of managemenl as to actual and potential litigation and claims. We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company's financial statements to material misstalement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: Making enquiries of representatives from the trustees as to where they considered there was suscepiibilty to fraud, thelr knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud,. and Considering the intemal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-Gompliance. Auditing standards also limit th8 audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations lo enquiry of the Irustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
