Impact Living
Report of the Trustees for the year ended
31 October 2024
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the
year ended 31 October 2024.
The financial statements comply with Charities Act 2011, the Articles of Association, and 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 (FR5102) (effective I january 2019) as detailed in the accounting policies.
REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS
The Charity information page forms part of this report.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Impact Living was set up in accordance with a written constitution adopted on 2 August 2007 with
an amendment being adopted on 8 August 2016.
TRUSTEE APPOINTMENTS
Trustees are appointed and re-elected by the charity in a general meeting.
ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The charity is managed by a committee comprising of three officers
treasurer.
a chair, a secretary, and a
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where significant risks
have been identified, systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
RESERVES POLICY
In assessing the appropriate level of reserves to be maintained by the charity, the Trustees take
historic and forecast levels of income and expenditure and their volatility into account. This has
resulted in a current policy of maintaining the level of free reserves in the range of 3 to 6 months
forward expenditure. The Board reviews the policy on reserves annually.
The current level of funds held by the charity at the year-end amounted to a deficit of £134,393
(2023 £146,377 deficit) and included restricted funds of £49,469 (2023 - £43,606). After deducting
restricted funds and fixed assets, the charity had free reserves of a deficit amounting to £183,862
(2023 £189,983 deficit). This is below the set policy due to a delay in payment of the new extra
care contracts for salaries/running costs. This has resulted in an amount payable to Impact Property
Services Limited, a company which is connected via common Trustees/Directors. It has been agreed
that this loan will be repaid over the next five years.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
On 8 August 2016 an amendment was adopted to change the name of the charity from Impact Young
Heroes to Impact Living- this was with an aim to expand the aims and objectives of the charity and
to deliver our support service to a wider range of vulnerable groups. The Impact Young Heroes
project continues to operate within the charity and continues to deliver services to those who are
living with a cancer diagnosis.
The Objects as adopted 8 August 2016
The Charity's objects (the objects) are to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of the United

DEVELOPMENTS, ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE DURING THE YEAR
Impact Living continues to partner with Impact Property Services Limited, a not-for-profit
organisation which provides supported accommodation to vulnerable and homeless adults. This
organisation was established over 24 years ago and in this time has provided housing and support
services that promote independent living to hundreds of adults.
Over the last 12 months, Impact Property Services Limited has expanded by creating more units of
accommodation for young adults at risk and adults with complex needs who require support and a
safe living environment.
Impact Living has been commissioned through the Supported Living Framework in Bradford and the
Mental Health Independence & Support Framework in Sheffield to support these individuals, as well
as deliver floating support services within the local community. The client's mental health and well-
being / extra care needs are monitored in weekly support visits. Additional monies to fund these
support activities have been raised through individual grants and donations made by kind and
generous members of the public, who have connerted with the 'heartbeat' of the charity.

gain sponsorship for their fundraising events.
RESEARCH
Impact Living continue to research simple solutions, to compliment and hopefully improve further
the life experiences of young people/adults who are living with diagnosed mental health conditions,
chronic/long term illness or cancer and this type of research is still vital for the development of
services for young people and adults. We also continue to partner with Impact Property Services,
regarding feasibility studies for suitable supported accommodation options for Impact Living service
users in Yorkshire and various other Cities/Counties.
AWARENESS RAISING
Impact Living continues to accept offers to attend awareness raising meetings, to raise awareness
of the issues young peopleladults living with diagnosed mental health conditions, chronic/long-term
illness, or cancer face.
RESPITE ACCOMMODATION
Impact Property Services continues to support Impact Living by allowing the use of its Lanzarote
villas for any future respite breaks for the early part of 2024. Due to the 'cost of living, crisis,
respite breaks had been limited but during 2024, we have managed to provide villa
accommodation to one young adult and their family for them to have a much needed respite
break.
SUPPORT
We continued to provide support and diversionary activities for our most vulnerable clients. This
support has included assisting with shopping, daily well-being checks, walks around local outdoor
space including parks, and also engaging in indoor activities. This has all been made possible by
various charitable donations, including: arts, crafts, boardgames, books and for some it has been
the learning of new skills such as baking. Impatt Living has also commemorated key celebratory
events by providing donations received by the local community, such as festive 'shoebox' gifts,
Mother's / Father's Day hampers and Easter eggs.

supported accommodation. This type of accommodation provides adults with a safe place to live and
promotes independence. whilst still maintaining a level of support.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended
31 October 2024 (continued)
Impact Living has experienced health support staff who work directly with our clients. We continue
to accept referrals predominately from NHS mental health teams, local authorities and hospitals that
have been identified as partners. These agencies and hospitals fully support the work of Impact
Living and they continue to facilitate relationships between each client and our workers for us to
develop 'tailor made, support packages.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
In light of the 'cost of living. crisis, Impact Living is still undergoing its fundraising review, strategy
development process and feasibility Study alongside Impact Property Services Limited, with the view

and eco-friendly, providing enhanced support, health and enterprise opportunities for our clients.

professionals and our clients to create an enhanced supported housing model that would not only
benefit our clients but also bring a boost to the local community. Each supported housing scheme
consists of between 10 and 60 units of one and two-bedroom apartments, with an enclosed garden
courtyard area and community, support, enterprise, and training facilities on the ground floor.

7. Reward and Incentive Programme
We are also implementing a reward and incentive programme to help build positive reinforcement;

members of their local community.
We will liaise closely with health/mental health professionals and Oncology Unit Social Workers, to
facilitate an appropriate personal support plan to meet each Impact Living service user's specific
housing and support needs.
Over the next two to three years, we aim to provide more respite breaks for clients and their carers.
We aim to maintain strong relationships with NHS teams and hospitals throughout the UK and to
develop new relationships as our capacity grows. We remain committed to supporting as many young
adults/adults as possible and to develop additional services.
EXTRA CARE
The charity provides a specialist and mental health support service to 90010 of Impact Property
Services Limited clients who are living with complex needs i.e. those fleeing abuse or at risk of
sexual exploitation who also have multiple diagnoses in mental health such as psychosis, multiple
personality disorder, self-harm, drug and alcohol addiction and gender dysphoria.
As part of the fundraising strategy, Impact Living also aims to provide funding for specialist key
support workers and specialist health and wellbeing workers, to assist with any service users support
needs at Impact Property Service's Bradford, Sheffield and it's Malton scheme, plus any future
schemes.
NATE PROJECT
To address the complex needs of our beneficiaries in a holistic and integrated way, Impact Living
aims to enhance its existing extra care service by raising funds for an in-house Needs Assessment
and Therapy Evaluation Service (NATE Service), in conjunction with piloting a new Creative
Therapies Project, which will consist of a Support Assessor Evaluator, Art Psychotherapist, Art Kits
and an Admin Worker.
Initially taking place over a two-year period, we have employed a 'Support Needs Assessor and
Evaluator, to lead the project. Following an on-site assessment and evaluation, beneficiaries will
receive immediate access to a personalised therapy and support programme, where they can begin
to address and manage their mental health conditions and other complex issues Wlthin a safe and
stable home, while working towards achieving greater independence.
The project will support those who have found it difficult accessing mainstream health services, have
slipped through the net and not been able to get the right mental health care needed through other
means. It will particularly aim to reach those who need critical support, such as individuals in mental
health crisis, those with substance misuse and alcohol issues, including those with dual diagnosis
and those discharged from psychiatric units. The project aims to provide early intervention, reducing
hospital admissions and helping to relieve the current strain on local mental health teams.

Impact Living
Report of the Trustees for the year ended
31 October 2024 (continued)
I would also like to thank the following funders for their genemus donations to existing and new
projects ( restricted funding)-
Sheffield Mutual provided a grant in January 2024 to provide art excursions for Sheffield
clients.
Marshall & Viggars Charitable Trust granted funds in February 2024 for the Crofton Court
well-being garden project.
JG Graves Charitable Trust granted monies to fund art excursions for Sheffield clients in
February 2024.
The National Garden Scheme Community Grant was received to support another well-
being garden projert in April 2024.
B&Q Foundation made a grant to a garden project for Wilfred Drive clients.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
A surplus has been made during the year of £11,984 (2023: £76,667 deficit). The Trustees consider
that the level of reserves at the year-end, along with expected activity in the next financial year, is
adequate to allow the charity to meet its aims for at least the next 12 months.
CONCLUSION
The last 12-month period has been far more complex than in previous years and has proved
challenging for our clients, staff, and volunteers. This is mainly due to the after effects of 'the cost
of living, crisis that began in late 2021. However, we have been encouraged by the response of
individuals and funders who have helped us to support many adults who are living with, or are
affected by, various diagnosed mental health conditions, chronic/long-term health conditions and
cancer.
I would like to thank our friends, partners. and volunteers for their generous financial, moral and
practical support; so that our objectives are fulfilled, and we are able to continue to deliver essential
services to young people and adults.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended
31 October 2024
Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in
the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
Charitable Trust information
Impact Living is a charity established by Written Constitution adopted on 2 August 2007 and
registered with the Charity Commission under charity number 1122871. The charity's principal office
address is 23-71 Wilfred Drive, Darnall, Sheffield, S9 3WA.
Accounting convention
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of
Recommended Practice.. Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in
accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS
102) ("Charities SORP (FR5102)"), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United
Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted
Practice effective from l January 2019.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair. view and have departed from
the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true
and fair view,. This departure has involved following Charities SORP (FRS 102) rather than
Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from l April
2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Impact Living meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in
the relevant accounting policy notes.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company.
Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal
accounting policies adopted are set out below.
Going concern
At the balance sheet date, the charity had net liabilities of £134,393 (2023: £146,377). The Trustees
have at the time of approving the financial statements a reasonable expectation that the charity has
adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they
continue to adopt the going concem basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Charitable funds
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restriction imposed by
donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The cost of raising and
administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted
fund is set up in the notes to the financial statements.
Income
Income is recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities ("SoFAJ in the year in which it
is receivable.
Income from government grants and other grants whether 'capital grants. or 'revenue grants. is
recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions have been
met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and
not deferred.
12

Impact Living
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended
31 October 2024 (continued)
Expenditure
Expenditure {excluding grants) is included in the SOFA on an accruals basis.
Charitable activities include support costs and governance costs which are those incurred in
connection with the administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory
requirements.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
Staff costs
The costs of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense where
settlement of obligations does not fall within the same year.
Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments. and
Section 12 '0ther Financial Instruments Issues. of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. The
Charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments in
accordance with section 11 of FRS 102. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at
transaction value and are subsequently measured at their settlement value.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short
maturity held for working capital.
1.10 Debtors
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and 1055, are assessed for
indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more
events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash
flows have been afferted. The impairment loss is recognised in the income and expenditure account.
1.11 Creditors, loans and provisions
Creditors, loans 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, loans and provisions
are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Fi nancial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, obligations are discharged, cancelled or
they expire.
Amounts recognised as provisions are best estimates of the consideration required to settle the
present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties
surrounding the obligation.
1.12 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in
furtherance of the general objectives of the Group and which have not been designated for other
purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restriction imposed by
donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The cost of raising and
administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted
fund is set up in the notes to the financial statements.

1.13 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 year in which the estimate is revised, if the revision
affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both
current and future years.
The Trustees have determined that there are no estimates or assumptions which have a significant
risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities.
