Another busy year at HOPS with lots of changes. We have ran some lovely activities and day trips. Including our holiday to Scotland. 

We have welcomed our lovely chef Joe and put in place a caretaker and outreach worker. 

I would like to thank all the trustees for their commitment to HOPS. As well as this I would like to thank Susan for her commitment to booking and organising all trips. I thank her for her hard work as always.

Lesley Roebuck, Chair of HOPS 

## **A message from your Treasurer:** 

We were lucky this financial year to receive a substantial bequest from a deceased HOPS member; this has given us a degree of financial stability for the next couple of years. And allowed us to invest heavily is new staff members to improve and expand our services, hopefully the coming year and New Manager will bring some new ideas and energy to help HOPS become even better. 

## **A message from your General Manager: Martin Newton.** 

This will be my last annual report as your manager, and I will have retired by the time you read this. I would like to thank the Committee past and present staff, Leeds City council adult social care, my friends and colleagues from the neighbourhood networks, local councillors and most of all HOPS members for their support over the past 25 years. It has been a pleasure working with you all. 

We have once again had a busy and exciting year with three new members of staff joining the team. 

Ian has joined us in the role of driver caretaker, and you can see the result of his hard work with the Village Hall gardens and our parking area looking tidy and attractive. Ian has vast experience in a number of fields and has a special interest in the gardens as he was a former landscape gardener, we are looking to develop the space around the hall to create the opportunity for members of all abilities to get involved. 

Joe Bloomer has joined us as the lunch club cook, he comes with a wealth of experience in the catering industry and cooks some fabulous meals, all prepared fresh on the day. 

If you would like to join us for lunch, please contact us on 0113228552 . 

Kerrie Johnson will take over as General manager from October 2024 and comes with a wealth of Health and Social Care knowledge to help grow and nurture HOPS. 

My special thanks go to Susan who for many years has worked alongside me and has been an integral part of making HOPS the fabulous organisation it is today. I could not have done any of it without her. Thank you, Susan. 

Martin Newton 

## **A message from your Assistant Manager: Susan Childs** 

I would like to begin by giving a special mention to our cook, Elaine and to Martin’s wife, Jan both of whom will be missed terribly. I know all our members will miss them too. 

We remember all our members who have lost their lives over the last year. 

As always it has been a busy year with events and activities, we have had 334! We look forward to the year ahead. As always, if you have any ideas for trips please let me know. 

I would like to thank all our committee members and volunteers, we couldn’t manage without you!

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

We are lucky enough to have 2 new members of staff start this year. Ian our driver/handyman and Joe our cook. They have made such a positive difference to HOPS. 

Lastly it is time to say Au revoir to Martin, who after the longest retirement countdown in history retired in October. We wish him all the best. 

## **A Message from the new General Manager in place now at HOPS** 

I am Kerrie Johnson and I am excited to be the new manager. I have over a decade of experience within the Health and Social Care sector. Where I have mainly specialised in Older People Services for rehabilitation for various health conditions whilst supporting their mental health and social wellbeing. I hope that I can bring some new opportunities for growth for HOPS and some new innovative ideas, for expanding our activities and driving opportunities for learning new skills to our members. 

As well as this, I am looking forward to creating new projects with my team. One of which is a community garden, that will encourage younger members of the community to support older members. By transforming our derelict garden into a thriving “Community Garden”, we hope to be able to provide an accessible space to members and volunteers in the community. Which will provide therapeutic horticulture activities for our members, as well as growing fresh fruit and vegetables to be then used by our wonderful Chef as part of lunches and dinners sessions for our HOPS members.

## Hawksworth Older People Support Services (HOPS) Ltd Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 30 September 2024 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company 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 charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

Approved by the board of trustees on 5/3/2025

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Hawksworth Older People Support Services (HOPS) Ltd 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 30 September 2024, which are set out on pages 11 to 17. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and 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.
