SUPPORT TO RECOVERY

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 statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)".

Objectives and activities

The objectives of the charity for the year ending 31 March 2025 were:

To relieve the needs of persons within the county of West Yorkshire having mental health problems and those who care for people with mental health difficulties by preventive means, through support, advice, visual arts, creativity, therapeutic interventions and physical activities and by any other charitable means that the trustees may, from time to time, think fit. To provide mental health services, vocational services, visits and undertake research and developments for public benefit. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities.

The board of Trustees want to ensure that our organisation is fully accessible and inclusive to all who choose to connect with us. This could be through a referral or self-referral pathway, and for any health or social reason, including mental and emotional difficulties, social isolation, needing support to improve or maintain personal resilience, or to further pursue a vocational interest, to enable meaningful engagement and life-long learning.

Regardless of individuals circumstances, S2R wants to be responsive to needs and assist with positive and healthier life outcomes. An increasing focus of our work is developing and delivering place-based intervention and prevention sessions, helping people draw on the benefits of ecotherapy, creativity, and practical wellbeing to build personal toolkits to overcome life's challenges.

Public benefit

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance

Significant activities and achievements against objectives

S2R offers open-access, inclusive, trauma-informed and person-centred support, activities and opportunities for all who wish to maintain or improve their health and wellbeing, with or without a formal mental health diagnosis.

We recognise the value of wrap-around support where individuals are facing a range of personal challenges and strive to work closely and effectively with statutory and VCSE partners alike to ensure needs are addressed and barriers to access are reduced.

This year we have continued to focus on providing quality place-based services, being responsive and adapting provision to tackle health inequalities in communities. Our offer has been primarily small group work in the form of regular weekly, fortnightly and monthly groups as well as a wide range of one-off workshops, courses and community events. These have taken place both at our base in central Huddersfield as well as at community venues and greenspaces across Kirklees. In an average week we provided 15 group wellbeing sessions, including dedicated activities for the elderly, those over 18, young people aged 14+, families and carers.

SUPPORT TO RECOVERY

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

As an intervention and prevention service, we have supported individuals to develop their social connections and to feel that they are valued members of their communities, to share their skills and learn new ones, to try new creative and environmental outlets, to co-design and co-produce community engagements, to access wider local opportunities and support services, and to develop their confidence, resilience and aspirations.

Charitable Activities during 2024-25 include:

The Great Outdoors Project

5 year contract + 2 years possible extension. A local authority commissioned mental health service, working Kirklees-wide to promote the mental and physical health benefits of accessing outdoor spaces and activities associated with nature, through a varied programme of session delivery, events and partnership working. This enables the outdoors team to continue their impactful work for a further 5 years to 2029 and beyond, with the project to be shaped and developed collaboratively with Kirklees communities into the future.

Additionally, TGO took over hosting our local Repair Café once a month at the S2R premises.

Community Champions Campaigns

Throughout the year we have delivered a diverse range of Community Champions (inclusive of Core20Plus5) health messaging campaigns to address health inequalities for those most impacted, including those with physical and learning disabilities, NEET, Black and Asian Ethnicity, low literacy levels, experience of trauma or abuse, poor mental health, living in areas of highest depravation. Campaigns have included: reducing maternal and infant deaths; reducing CVD deaths; reducing respiratory deaths; reducing cancer deaths; reducing SMI deaths; stopping smoking; diabetes support, prevention and management of type 2 diabetes; increasing vaccination take up, including: MMR, Flu, Covid.

Creative Minds Projects

With funding through South West Yorkshire NHS Trust Creative Minds, this year we began delivery of an upcycling project (Underpin) to address poor mental health, loneliness and reducing barriers to accessing support, as well as learning sewing and crafting skills and saving money by recycling old clothing.

Active Birkby Club

With support and funding from the Yorkshire Sport Foundation we set up this club to help the local residents improve their health through exercising more often as well as building social connections and improving their wellbeing.

Dalton and Waterloo Place-based Provision

With funding from Ward Councillors’ budgets, Dalton Place Standard Investment Fund, and Third Sector Leaders: this year we have continued delivering a range of place-based community engagements in Dalton and Waterloo areas, helping to build community capacity and address local environmental, social, health and wellbeing issues.

We have also provided a community worker for Moldgreen United Reform Church to assist them with community outreach and development as part of the Unite Connect Respect program. This is being done in partnership.

With some additional funding from Ward councillors and with help from our TGO staff we built a book box library for the local area for free borrowing and donating of books.

Dewsbury and Mirfield Place-based Provision

As the Community Anchor for Dewsbury and Mirfield, this year S2R has provided support to 33 community groups, community interest companies and Charities in Dewsbury and Mirfield, and played a key role in establishing 6 new community groups. In our role as Anchor, we have supported groups to apply for funding, secured free storage units for local arts organisations, initiated peer support groups and contributed to 20 Community events as well as helping find volunteers for 24 community organisations.

With funding support from National Lottery Awards for All and Third Sector Leaders Kirklees we have offered regular weekly provision for elderly and vulnerable residents in Mirfield and Dewsbury through a range of social connection and gentle exercise groups: reducing isolation and connecting people, improving physical and mental health and supporting people to live well for longer.

We have also provided short projects in the area for older people’s art sessions and teaching people how to cook

with air fryers.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Addressing Mental Health as a Barrier to Employment and Further Learning

With UK Government funding through both Kirklees Councils’ Employment and Skills team and Third Sector Leaders Kirklees, this year we continued to deliver two programmes: Brighter and Multiply, that aim to support and upskill individuals experiencing poor mental health and other complex circumstances which are acting as barriers to aspiration and progression. Helping people to develop the skills and confidence to access further learning, volunteering and employment.

Partnerships and Feedback

Throughout 2024/25 S2R have worked to develop our existing partnerships and establish relationships with new partners to best meet the changing and challenging needs of our communities, these partners include, but are not limited to: Ward Councillors, schools, employment services, various Kirklees Council teams, housing providers, refugee and asylum seeker services, substance misuse services, transport services, faith organisations, community groups, local festivals and more. Our Great Outdoors Project alone worked with 169 local partners this year.

Quotes

“I love getting together with you all, it really does give me a boost.”

“The garden group should all be very proud of what they’ve done out there, especially gardening in the rain and cold. It really has made a difference. They all look happy and have been grafting away out there today.”

“I wasn’t going to come today. I’ve been so stressed about having to move flat, my mental health has suffered. I knew I’d feel better to get out and join you, and it has helped to see you all and talk. I think the fresh air and exercise has helped too.”

“Coming here really helps my mental health, there is a community here.”

"CT has been an absolute lifeline during my journey, going above and beyond to support me through what has been a challenging time. Her experience, dedication, and incredible network of contacts have made a real difference. I was on the verge of quitting, but CT stepped in and ensured I had everything I needed to keep going. From supporting my grant applications to connecting me with the right people, her efforts have been invaluable, and I truly couldn't have made it far without her."

“We’ve done lots of different things together, many of which I didn’t think I’d like, or be able to do. But then I’ve found out differently. It’s good to do something different and get out of your comfort zone sometimes.”

“I feel more like I belong now, getting involved to make a difference in the community makes me feel better about myself, as well as being good for the area. I enjoy telling people about the different things we do and my family are really pleased that I got involved. It’s given me some-thing to look forward to.”

Funds position at 31 March 2025:

£ Total funds at 31.3.25 79,143 Less : Restricted funds (27,460) Less : Held as fixed assets (8,366) ----------- 'Free' Reserves 43,317 ======

Reserves policy

– In line with Charity Commission guidance, the reserve target for 2024/25 continues to be 3 6 months running costs, the charity will work to increase and maintain the existing reserve to bring it within the 3 - 6 months costs range. This reflects the changing landscape of funding, as well as recognising the charity’s need to use as much of its funds as possible to further the charities’ objectives.

The Board is realistic in understanding the high level of current economic challenges faced by the charity. The reserve position will be reviewed within the Treasurers’ report at each Trustee meeting throughout the year and the Board will continue to exercise all due diligence in overseeing the charity’s financial health.

Plans for future periods

Looking to 2025/26 we expect to see further cuts in the statutory sector and increased financial pressures on our funders, our sector and our participants. The demand for S2R services continues to increase and we do not see this reducing in the foreseeable future, especially as other agencies cease to offer services or close.

We will work to continue to work to meet the needs of our communities in these challenging times. 2024/25 saw a great many achievements and successes for individual participants, valuable project and service outcomes and positive partnerships, these are the foundation for our work into 2025/26, continuing our focus on strong and effective partnership delivery and place-based support for our communities.

For the future we are looking at how we can build and sustain the work we already do as well as new initiatives to broaden our income stream and increase our sustainability. This includes developing our Peer Support offer as well as offering existing sessions in new areas and venues.

We are also working to develop our direct fundraising and donations through the private sector.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Support to Recovery is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 5 - 7 Brook Street, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, HD1 1EB.

1.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a statement of cash flows.

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

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Gallery fixtures and fittings over the remaining life of the lease Fixtures and fittings 15% on reducing balance Computers 33% on reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

SUPPORT TO RECOVERY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.11 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
