with CV and references. Trustees are sought by advertising for applicants among the Members, NCVS, Newcastle Volunteer Centre, VODA and other Organisations.

Organisation

The Trustees’ Board meets regularly (a minimum of three times per year) to review activities and financial issues. The organisation of Trustee roles is regularly reviewed and updated, extra management meetings are held as required. The Chair is a titular role and a democratic model of sharing out roles and responsibilities among the Trustees, according to their expertise and skills is practised to best effect. Management of the Charity’s finances are the shared responsibility of the board.

The charity has a part time/contracted worker in the role of the Advice, Support and Assessment Coordinator, who works in consultation with Trustees to manage and coordinate all services provided by Dyslexia North East. This involves close working partnerships with other organisations and institutions, to meet the ever growing demand for the advice, guidance and services offered by Dyslexia North East.

Finance Report

Income for financial year 2022-2023 was £61,838 and the expenditure was £73,309. We are aware that our funds are low, however the trustees have taken all necessary steps to cut back expenditure as far as possible. However at the same time ensuring that the charity’s ability to provide an effective and sustainable service continues.

Public Benefit

In setting the objectives and activities of the Charity, the Trustees make sure that the guidelines of the GDPR and Charity Commission are followed, as defined in the Charities Act 2006, so that its purposes benefit members of the public, whatever their culture, background or ethnicity.

Objectives and Activities

The Objects of the Charity are to promote the advancement of education, and to give support to those affected by specific learning difficulties, including related conditions, to assist them to achieve their full potential. Primarily, Dyslexia North East seeks to promote knowledge and understanding of Dyslexia – raise awareness in schools, universities, colleges and the workplace – give support and advice to both individuals of all ages with dyslexia, and their families

Advice, Guidance and Support

This remains a key provision of the Charity. Our communication streams (phone and email) are open throughout the year. Enquiries are welcome from parents, adult dyslexics, employers and education professionals and providers, as well as other interested parties.

Giving Advice, Guidance and Support has increased since Covid Lockdown. Parents are being advised and encouraged by their children’s schools to have private assessments. This is due to schools’ lack of funding and very long waiting lists. The majority of parents are not familiar with Dyslexia and are not sure where to start in arranging an assessment for their child.

Our very experienced Coordinator at Dyslexia North-East talks at length to the interested party, explaining every step of the process and the diagnostic report.

Dyslexia North EAST (A company by guarantee) Trustees Annual report For the year ended Sept 30 2023

Advice and guidance continue after the assessment, signposting when recommendations have been included in the report, for example, suggesting a tutor, or an appointment with an Optometrist for a Visual Stress Eye Test. DNE can give details of how to find these.

Assessments

As well as offering important advice, guidance and support, we continue to offer diagnostic assessment for Dyslexia, Dyscalculia and Workplace Needs assessments for dyslexics. All assessors (Educational Psychologists or Specialist Dyslexia Teachers) hold relevant and current British Dyslexic Association Assessment Qualifications.

This is a breakdown of assessments over this year.

Tutoring

Experienced and qualified tutors deliver specialised individual programs for children and young adults, both virtually and in person. There were over 250 tutoring sessions held during the year.

Dyslexia Awareness Workshops

There were workshops delivered to Newcastle University and Durham Constabulary and they are available on request for education, training and workplace providers.

Fundraising and support

This has been another challenging year for Dyslexia North-East in relation to securing funding, especially for Core Costs. This year has been about consolidation, sustainability and keeping outgoing costs to a minimum.

Our Profile has changed organically in the current climate and for the last year we have concentrated mainly on giving advice and guidance and supporting people in arranging assessments.

We continue to seek new funding sources to enable us to build upon our strong partnerships in order to identify and support individuals of all ages with dyslexia and their families, to assist them in achieving their full potential.

Supporting Dyslexia in the Workplace

Dyslexia North-East continues to raise awareness with employers, giving them help and advice to help support their employees in the workplace.

We are fortunate enough to work with some large organisations and provide assessments for their employees when they are required.

We have also offered guidance on improving their procedures, based on feedback from employees during their initial screening interviews.

Example Of Good Practice

One of these organisations runs a lot of apprenticeships, and several common difficulties were repeatedly brought up during their screenings regarding the training process.

This information prompted our Coordinator to email the Employer with some suggestions and guidance which might help the new recruits through the training process and the dyslexics waiting to be assessed.

This is an excerpt from the email that Dyslexia North-East received from the Employer’s

Project Manager / Strategy, Planning and Transformation, Chair of Staff’s Disability Network

‘The team are keen to continually learn and they have indeed seen the benefit of directing the apprentice’s assessor to where the SPLD reports are held. This ensures that the assessors

5

Dyslexia North EAST (A company by guarantee) Trustees Annual report For the year ended Sept 30 2023

are fully briefed on the specific requirements of each student. When the students consent to share their DNE report, I regularly get requests for a Dyslexia Workplace Needs Assessment to ensure that we are capturing our colleague’s needs early on.

If they return work that is hard to understand or illegible, we hold on to this or we return to the learner with advice not to re-submit it. We know it is more beneficial to have a face-to-face conversation with the learner and discuss what is needed on that piece of work. Again, this is not to unduly highlight an area that is clearly difficult for them, but to ensure we can capture their needs and support them in that piece of work.

Some learners can develop this skill with speech-to-text, some can use spell check (others would struggle as they do not know what words to look for) some learners need a conversation and an auditory assessment as opposed to a written assessment. We are keen to ensure that we capture the specific needs of our learners and provide the right adjustments so that they have what they need to produce the work required as part of their ongoing assessments. Not only has this proven to be of more benefit for all concerned but it is less demoralising for our students who are working really hard in an area that is not easy for them.

We totally agree that early assessment is vital and that is why we use the BKSB assessment on all students irrespective of their presenting needs and this also highlights other students who perhaps were not aware they had a SPLD.

I absolutely recognise that asking for help can be incredibly tough and that is why we are investing in more trained Dyslexia Workplace Needs Assessors in both our training and education department and our Emergency Control Facility. The WPNA has been the best tool to ensure a robust and collaborative approach to ensuring our colleagues have all they need to succeed in their roles.

I fully recognise that disclosing a SPLD, a neurodiversity or disability is an incredibly personal experience. A lot of work and communications exercises have highlighted the great work that has already taken place around workplace adjustments. We do see that the ‘landscape’ continues to change, and conversations of this ilk are becoming more normalised. We are seeing a positive shift in our workplace culture as has been indicated in the staff survey.

As we are always keen to find ways to continually improve this process, we will draft a summary document to all our staff in Education Department to ensure that the same process and practice is followed and this will pick up new staff who have recently joined our team, so that we can continue the great work we have established and of course continue to build on our wonderful relationship with Dyslexia North East.’

Thanks again for highlighting this to us June, its appreciated and we value your continual support and open communication.

Future prospects

The board of Trustees recognises the impact of our inability to recruit new trustees on the financial position of the organisation. Our ability to raise funds in the usual ways has been reduced. The trustees will monitor a projection of income for 12 months ahead and actively look for new sources of funding as well as trying to increase core paid for services.

6

Dyslexia North EAST (A company by guarantee) Trustees Annual report For the year ended Sept 30 2023

We plan on continuing to deliver Helpline and advice services, offer tutoring and Dyslexia & Dyscalculia assessments for both children & adults. We advocate for dyslexics of all ages.

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

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 income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:

• State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

• Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The trustees and directors of Dyslexia North East have read and approved this annual report which is signed on their behalf by:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES

For the year ended 30 September 2023

I report on the financial statements of Dyslexia North East for the year ended 30 September 2023, which are set out on pages 9 to 18.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.y g q y g

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
