The Objects are to provide a first point of contact to the youth living within the Berkshire area to raise the awareness of alcohol, drug and substance abuse and general wellbeing and to challenge their social attitudes based on Christian values and ethics by all charitable means, including the following: -
a) by the provision of teams of people and/or mobile facilities as a safe meeting and listening place. b) through providing education and information.

JAC is extremely grateful for the on-going work and commitment of its staff and volunteers. During 2022/23 volunteers have contributed over 4680 hours of voluntary youth work, family work and back-office support, valued at over £73,000 based on the median gross hourly rate for full-time workers of £15.60 per hour. An additional 20,000 hours of paid employment means JAC has been able to meet its objectives and provide a valued service to the community.
NETWORKING AND LIAISON WITH OTHER AGENCIES
JAC values networking with other agencies and where invited will take an active role in community and strategic planning and partnership. Partnership working with Social Care and SEND in Wokingham and Bracknell continues to grow due to the number of children and young people referred from these services, especially into our post-16 alternative provision. Likewise, good relationships with schools and parents continue to develop as JAC provides support through services at Rehoboth and the JAC in a Box shop. JAC continues to work with churches, voluntary and statutory agencies, and community groups for the well-being of our children and young people.
CHAIRMAN’S REPORT, NIGEL PRESTON
As you’ll see elsewhere from this Annual Report, this has been a very successful year in the life of JAC. I’d like to begin by thanking the whole range of people and organisations who have supported us through the year and who make JAC the special organisation that it is.
You’ll see much in this Report about our wonderful staff and volunteers at Rehoboth, in JAC in a Box and at Maiden Erlegh school. So many of these folk go above and beyond in working with our young people. In particular, I want to honour Yvonne and Sam, and also Naomi, for their drive, enthusiasm, and initiative in leading us. Most will know that Robbie Forsaith left us last September and Kate Hembra in December, I’d just like to thank them both for their work in the office over some 4 years. I also need to thank the various organisations who have contributed time, goods, and services to us. Crucially I want to thank all the local churches and loyal supporters who have prayed and funded us over the years. Finally, thanks also to my fellow trustees, who make our meetings such positive and enjoyable times.
Part of me wishes that organisations like JAC did not have to exist, but the needs that we help to meet seem to grow and grow and so, the role we seek to play encouraging young people to make
6
Just Around the Corner (JAC) Ltd
positive choices becomes more and more necessary. It is good, therefore, to see that we have been able to cater for more young people this year than previously.
I think from the trustees’ point of view this has been a busy year, we meet together most months, alternating between regular business meetings and those devoted more to prayer and thinking towards the future.
Rehoboth continues to be the centre of JAC’s activities, and we’ve seen the continued development of the site. Many have commented on the improvement the tarmac driveway provides. I love the visual impact of the flower beds, and often when I visit the site, I spend a few minutes enjoying the changes that the months and seasons bring. I also love the buzz of activity on the site, there always seems to be people going about their business, lessons and training sessions in progress and cars bringing and collecting our young people.
As trustees we have monitored the progress of our shop, JAC in a Box. It’s been excellent to see how the staff and volunteers have coped with the changes the year has brought and how it has continued to both develop the young people and to serve the community of Wokingham. We, as trustees, have a particular involvement, as this brilliant initiative is also clearly a significant financial risk for the charity, particularly having entered a commercial lease.
Over the years our animals do change but nobody could have foreseen us this year taking on a large number of reptiles and insects, including a very large tortoise! However, God provides all sorts of unexpected opportunities, and these newcomers are offering additional experiences for those on our animal welfare courses!
Thank you again for all who have contributed to JAC this year.
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR REPORT, SAM MILLIGAN
It's clear that JAC has come a long way in its journey over the last 25 years, evolving from small beginnings as a detached youthwork provision into a multifaceted organization that focuses on engaging with and supporting young people in various ways. Some key points and developments for us to reflect on:
-
Origins and Expansion : JAC started as a response to the need for engaging with young people in the community. It began by reaching out to youth in public spaces, recognizing that many of them needed guidance and support. Over time, JAC expanded its services to work with schools and offer innovative programs to help young people make better lifestyle choices.
-
Emotional Literacy Course : JAC developed an Emotional Literacy course that aimed to raise self-awareness, understand family dynamics, build confidence, and set goals. This course has been continually improved and expanded over the years to work alongside the various programmes.
-
Diverse Programmes : JAC has diversified its offerings, including working with horses, small animals, pottery, art, horticulture, natural handcraft and much more. These programs provide young people with unique opportunities for growth and development.
-
Post-16 Education : Recognizing a gap in post-16 education for some young people, JAC began offering apprenticeships and training in Horse Care and recently an Animal Welfare course in collaboration with the Wokingham and Bracknell SEND. These programs are aimed at re-engaging students who can’t access college or school by providing 1:1 or small group learning with high support around the individual’s SEN needs and love of animals.
-
Mentoring and In-School Work : JAC provides mentoring sessions to pupils directly at Rehoboth and continues in-school work in Maiden Erlegh, under Chris Doughty’s leadership and just this year helped Helen Warrick and Winterbourne team to set up a JAC model in their local senior school.

Just Around the Corner (JAC) Ltd
-
Detached Youth Work : While JAC no longer delivers detached youth work in Woodley under the Town Council’s SLA, there is still an occasional presence on the streets, however, the model lives on in Dave Powell’s work in Brampton, Toronto, with support from the JAC team here in Wokingham. JAC is open to supporting others interested in implementing similar programs in their local areas.
-
JAC in a Box Shop : The shop at Denmark Street is thriving and helps train and support young people in work-ready skills while providing the community with quality clothing and household items.
-
Volunteers : Volunteers play a crucial role in the success of JAC, contributing nearly 5000 hours in the past year. Their dedication and commitment are essential to making a difference in the lives of young people.
-
Recruitment and Expansion : As demand for services increases, JAC is looking to recruit more staff and volunteers, particularly those with special educational needs (SEN) training and equine experience. We are also reviewing the use of our space at Rehoboth and planning to further develop it to accommodate growing needs.
We hope it is inspiring to hear about JAC's development over the past 25 years and the incredible impact we’ve had on the lives of young people in our community. The evolution of our programs, from detached youth work to innovative educational courses and animal welfare initiatives, showcases our commitment to meeting the changing needs of the youth we serve. Expanding our Post-16 programs and finding creative ways to engage with young people who might otherwise struggle in mainstream education is a testament to the dedication of the whole JAC family. I want to thank you for the part you have played in getting us to this point on our journey and look forward to building upon this firm foundation in the next 25 years!

INCOMING RESOURCES
The bulk of incoming resources were used to cover the cost of delivering 1:1 and group sessions. The grounds of Rehoboth continue to be developed and improved with the help of volunteer labour. The development plans for the admin loft space and new reception area have not progressed further due to lack of time, and the small animal enclosure and workshops are 2/3 completed.
A general breakdown of income shows five main funding streams –
| JACPot 17% of total general income |
The JACPot funding initiative supports the general work of JAC and to enable expansion of work with a distinctively Christian emphasis. The JACPot consists of regular monthly income and one-off donations from churches and individuals. £ 106,476 was received through the JACPot fund showing a very slight increase on thepreviousyear’s £105,313. |
|---|---|
| Grants, Trusts and Companies 7.4% of total general income |
There was Grant and other income of £46,114 compared to £24,325 the previous year. This funding stream is generated through fundraising applications and is sometimes restricted for a specific piece of work– there is no guarantee that this income will be secured fromyear toyear,an increase of 89.5% |
| Project work 72.2% of total general income |
Project work income comes from ‘paid for services’ to schools and statutory organisations, one-off project grants related to our Equine and Small Animal Assisted Learning project and Rehoboth activities. Income for project work was £453,003 compared to £242,915 in thepreviousyear,an increase of 86% |
| Fundraising Events & Other Income 3.2% of totalgeneral income |
£20,617 generated from rental income and other activities showing a slight increase on the previous year’s £19,550. |
RESOURCES INCOME AND EXPENDITURE
This year ended on 31 March 2023 expenditure increased to £458,697 an increase of 22.7%. Incoming resources for the year increased to £626,954 an increase of 60% on the previous year.
EXPECTATIONS AND PROJECTIONS
9
Just Around the Corner (JAC) Ltd
Project Work income from referrals and other activities shows an increase of 86% on last year reflecting another increase in post 16 SEN placements and more provision for additional mentoring sessions. Our specialist post-16 education programme in equine studies was complemented by the addition of the Animal Welfare course as a new option for SEN students struggling to access mainstream services. All available spaces were filled and plans to increase capacity for next year is already in the pipeline. The new reptiles with their own room have increased the range of animals for the students to look after and learn about.
As always, we need more mentors to run more sessional work, the demand continues to increase but we are limited by the number of mentors and space on site for sessions to run.
We continue to need more subscribers to our JACPot giving scheme to help cover core costs and to increase our bursary fund. The Journey to Independence House continues to provide a young family who moved in at the end of 2019 with a safe and stable home environment for mum and 2 young children.
The projections for 2023/24 show an income of £643k with expenditure of £605k.
KEY RISKS
The key risk factors for the Charity would be:
-
A significant reduction in referrals or Post-16 placements, 72% of our income is generated through ‘paid for services’. There is a staff cost attached to these services, therefore, the risk could be managed in part by reducing staff overheads. The preferred risk management is to continue networking to raise our profile and offer to schools and Local Authorities, feedback successful outcomes to schools and parents and promote the excellent service we provide in bridging the gap in provision for emotional and behaviour support in schools and in the community – offering a service that is accessible to all. Continued monitoring of our pricing structure is necessary to ensure our services are covering the bulk of costs whilst still accessible to those in need.
-
Loss of key staff or volunteers – risk addressed by ensuring staff and volunteers feel valued, receive appropriate training and supervision, and see themselves as an integral part of building God’s Kingdom here on earth, in the event of such loss of staff, JAC’s recruitment policy recommends a re-evaluation of the situation followed by re-structuring or recruiting as necessary. Lead a recruitment campaign to recruit and train new sessional workers and volunteers.
-
Potential costs arising from continued development or maintenance of the Rehoboth site that would need to be funded by JAC, management of this risk would be to ensure there is ‘earmarked funds’ for this type of expenditure and where needed a fundraising campaign to meet the cost of any large development which then only progresses when funding has been secured or pledged.
RESERVES POLICY
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted free (General) reserves, those funds not tied up in fixed assets, designated or restricted funds, at a level equivalent to six months normal
10
Just Around the Corner (JAC) Ltd
expenditure less the regular incoming support from the JACPot. This would allow JAC to continue to operate in periods when grants or other funding is not available.
Our current level of normal outgoings (excluding restricted expenditure and depreciation) is £214,454 per six months. Regular JACPot funding, minus restricted JACPot giving, currently runs at £20,723 per six months, making a reserve target of £193,731.
On 31st March 2023 our unrestricted general reserves are £251,556, meeting our Reserve Target.
The Trustees are satisfied that the Charity’s assets are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations.
SHARE CAPITAL
The company is limited by Guarantee and therefore has no share capital.
TRUSTEE INDEMNITY COVER
Trustee indemnity insurance cover is provided by the Ansvar Commercial Combined Insurance policy.

Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 March 2023
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards.
Recognition of incoming resources
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
-
the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
When donors specify that donations and grants are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is included in incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable.
Grants and donations to fund expenditure on construction of fixed assets have been recognised in the SOFA on receipt as restricted funds.
Tax reclaims on donations and gifts
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Financial Activity at the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Investment income
This is included in the accounts when receivable.
Resources expended
Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Actiities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT, which cannot be recovered.
All expenditure has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular heading they have been allocated on a basis consistent with use of the resources.
Salary costs included within the cost of charitable activities have not been allocated to either Fund Generating or Governance costs. Recognising that some time is spent on these activities, the vast majority of staff time is spent on charitable activities, and the value of time that might be allocated elsewhere is not material.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and shown at cost.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
| Leasehold Buildings | - 10 years |
|---|---|
| Motor vehicles | - 4 years |
| Fixtures and fittings | - 4 years |
| Plant and machinery | - 4 years |
