HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

April 2021 – March 2022: summary

HENRY finished the year in a strong position – financially robust, delivering rapidly expanding and highly valued services, and with many new and exciting opportunities. Our charity has continued to grow at a rapid rate – almost 40% over 3 years - and 21/22 was no exception.

Uptake of HENRY is now widespread across all four nations of the UK and a total of 50 local authority areas. Parent, practitioner and commissioner feedback testifies to the value and impact of HENRY, as does our growing evidence base.

As we started the year, we were keenly aware that children’s physical and emotional wellbeing had been adversely affected by Covid and that there was an urgent need for timely and targeted intervention to prevent this affecting their childhood and future lives. We therefore continued to focus on developing and delivering accessible and tailored support in the first few years of life, as well as developing new programmes during pregnancy, the primary years and, most recently, for teenagers.

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 (incorporating the directors’ report).

Mission statement

Our mission is to support a healthy, happy start for children and lay the foundations for a brighter future.

Vision

Our vision is that children have a healthy, happy start in life to flourish throughout childhood and beyond. We recognise that parents want the very best for their children – we aim to provide the kind of responsive support they need to get their children off to a great start..

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Values

HENRY aspires to be a values-led organisation. All of our work with families, partners and HENRY colleagues is underpinned by the following explicit values:

Making a difference to vulnerable children and their families

We focus on children growing up in marginalised communities, with the aim of reducing health and social inequalities.

Our group and 1-to-1 support is delivered in many different community languages (or supported by interpreters), including Welsh, Urdu, Bengali, Arabic, Pasto, Dari, Romanian, Mandarin Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Albanian, Kurdish, Portuguese, Spanish, Soninka – as well as BSL.

There’s a big difference between knowing what children need and putting this knowledge into practice in the reality of daily life, especially for families facing other complex challenges.

Feedback from thousands of families over many years shows that our behaviour change approach really does make a difference.

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Where we are and where we’re going

HENRY’s work has expanded dramatically over the 12 years since our inception as a charity, evolving in new and different ways in response both to the success of our behaviour change approach and families’ needs for support.

Looking back on the 3-year strategy: 2019 – 2022

In April 2019 we began implementation of our new 3 year plan to deliver on our strategic objectives and achieve our key organisational goals to maximise:

The 3-year plan focused on achieving the following objectives:

  1. Continue to strengthen our work in the early years

  2. Extend HENRY to parents of primary-aged children

  3. Reach more families through digital HENRY

  4. Develop and maintain our reputation as a centre of excellence

  5. Develop work with teenagers through a ‘test and learn’ approach

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Reporting on 2021/22

The context: an urgent need to address the impact of Covid on vulnerable children

In April 2021, the UK was emerging from repeated lockdowns and Covid restrictions. The majority of our family support and practitioner training was still being delivered online.

Over the course of the year there was a steady shift back to face-to-face delivery, with parents welcoming the opportunity to once again come together with other local families. Our online programmes and training courses remained an important addition, however, enabling us to reach families who were not able to access community-based support.

The need for the support that HENRY provides had never been greater. Emerging data on the impact of lockdowns on children’s health and development painted an alarming picture - increased family stress, widespread concern about children’s emotional wellbeing, and a sharp rise in rates of language delay and child obesity.

Shockingly, National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) data for 20/21 showed an almost 50% year on year increase in national rates of child obesity during Covid lockdowns, which over the previous years had remained stable or slightly decreased. Rates in the poorest communities were double those in more affluent areas, with over 1 in 5 children now already living with obesity by the time they start school.

Achievements

Reaching families

Over the last year we doubled the number of families we supported through live ‘in-person’ contact – face-to-face, online or by phone. A total of 6,700 families were reached through our mix of local, national and partnership services:

Delivering programmes in partnership with local areas

Our partnership model of service delivery has grown significantly over the last year:

Expanding our age range – from conception to age 11

Geographical expansion

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Highly valued support to partnership areas

Our Partnerships Team provide ongoing support to areas once practitioners have been trained and authorised to deliver our programmes. The quality of this support plays a major role in successful implementation locally, ensuring the best possible experience for families as well as value for money. An independent evaluation commissioned by Scottish Government of both HENRY outcomes and the implementation process highlighted the many factors that went into making the roll out of HENRY in Scotland a success, from the quality of training for local practitioners to the support provided to local staff with responsibility for implementing HENRY locally.

Increasing uptake by parents

Local health and early years practitioners are a vital ‘bridge’ for parents who would benefit from HENRY programmes – but we were aware that referral and signposting pathways were not working as effectively as they could. As a result, we introduced Raise, Engage, Refer, a new brief online course for the wider workforce in partnership areas to boost participation in local HENRY programmes. The course aims to both improve practitioner understanding of HENRY, as well as confidence in opening up conversations with families around sensitive lifestyle issues. We delivered 23 courses across the year with 93% of participants rating every aspect of the training as useful or very useful.

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Local services

Securing multi-year contracts to deliver local services gives us the opportunity to work at population level within a local area, embedding HENRY’s holistic support and collaborating with other providers to provide joined-up support for a healthy start in life.

These services are reaching parents in some of the most deprived areas of the country. Our staff teams are part of the local community, enabling us to understand and respond to local needs, including delivering services in community languages. The range of services encompass:

Infant feeding services in Blackpool and Waltham Forest

Personalised and timely support is provided via local helplines, video calls, community drop-in sessions, home visits and breastfeeding cafés.

In Waltham Forest, HENRY is leading on Unicef Baby-Friendly accreditation in the Borough. In the last year we trained and supported all children’s centres to gain Unicef Stage 2 accreditation.

Preparation for Parenthood in Southend

This 3-year contract completed in March 2022. As well as providing highly-valued support to expectant couples, the service developed and tested the new HENRY antenatal programme which is now being taken up in other areas of the country.

Healthy Families services in Bradford, Southend, Waltham Forest, Hertfordshire and Hackney

HENRY is transforming traditional approaches to obesity prevention by supporting the family system to create the conditions in which children will have a healthy start. Our approach is holistic, integrating emotional wellbeing and parenting alongside food and activity habits in the family and children’s oral health.

We provide a flexible and family-friendly raft of support at different stages of early life so that parents can access the help they need when they need it – from workshops on starting solids, to 8-session family programmes, drop-in sessions, healthy teeth workshops and 1-to-1 support.

Family Nutrition Service in Lambeth

This 2-year project providing nutritional support in the most deprived wards of Lambeth in partnership with Better Start completed in September 2021.

For almost half of parents supported, English was an additional language and the team worked with families speaking 11 different community languages .

Healthy Start vitamins distribution in Hackney

4,500 pregnant women, new mothers and children under 4 years received free vitamins – a 21% increase in uptake since HENRY took over the contract in 2018, including high uptake among people from Asian ethnic backgrounds and Charedi Jewish population.

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Community-based speech and language support in Waltham Forest

Our speech and language team have seen a significant increase in referrals for young children with language delay – the result of 0-3 year olds missing out on the social stimulation they need as a result of Covid and lockdowns.

The team moved seamlessly from a fully virtual delivery to a blended delivery service post covid, that allowed families to access support in the way that suited them best. They took the best elements of virtual delivery in the pandemic e.g. video sharing, flexible, online appointments, to allow us to prioritise face-to-face appointments with families who needed this level of support.

National services

Our national team delivers both training to practitioners across the health, early years and children’s sector and online family support in areas of the country where there is no local HENRY service.

Workforce development

Our broad menu of courses aim to increase both subject knowledge and practitioners’ confidence, understanding and skills to support behaviour change in the family - helping them to really make a difference to children’s lives through the contact they have with families.

11

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Over the last year we completed our training programme in Northern Ireland, equipping the Clinical Education Centre to deliver HENRY training to practitioners across the whole of Northern Ireland. We also introduced HENRY training in Scotland and Wales in collaboration with local health boards, delivering face-to-face courses as far afield as Shetland.

National family wellbeing service

Recognising the strain on families after a year of repeated lockdowns, we piloted a range of innovative ways of reaching isolated and vulnerable parents, including one-to-one buddying support (online or by phone), topic-based online workshops and family wellbeing sessions.

150 families benefited from this support, described by one mother as ‘an amazing and life-changing service to mothers who need that help that has not been given during the pandemic’. Levels of emotional wellbeing were noticeably lower amongst parents accessing this support compared to users of other HENRY services, with half of participants providing baseline data that indicated mild to moderate depression. After participating in the HENRY family wellbeing service, no parents’ scores indicated depression .

13

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Impact on families

Understanding and maximising the impact of HENRY support on children and their families is a core organisational priority. We use validated measures to routinely evaluate all programme delivery, as well as working with universities to learn from more in-depth service evaluations.

Healthier and happier families: getting children off to the best start

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Improved parental wellbeing

Recognising that when parents are experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety and isolation they are less able to provide the kind of family lifestyle and relationships that enable children to flourish, HENRY programmes focus on improved parental wellbeing as a catalyst for change.

Using the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing scale (SWEMWBS) to evaluate the impact of the Healthy Families programme on parental wellbeing, we see significant improvement, with average scores rising from 22.3 at baseline to 24.4 at completion.

At the beginning of the programme, 36% of respondents had scores of 20 or less, which is indicative of possible depression. Post-programme, this fell by more than half to 16% of respondents.

Academic studies of HENRY family support

NIHR funding for full randomised control trial following successful pilot RCT[1] led by Leeds Trials Unit

Although the main focus was testing the trial methodology ahead of applying for funding for a definitive trial, the pilot RCT found the BMI z-score of children in participating families reduced towards a healthy weight while it increased in the control group.

The full trial is now underway to establish the effectiveness (and cost effectiveness) of HENRY as an obesity prevention programme delivered at scale, including its potential role from a wider systems perspective, both in terms of its impact on the system and the contextual factors influencing its effectiveness.

Specific research questions that the trial will address include:

  1. What is the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of HENRY in terms of reducing the risk of obesity in children?

  2. Does HENRY influence rates of obesity in parents, siblings and health practitioners who have attended training?

  3. What does the obesity system in which HENRY is positioned look like?

  4. What role does HENRY play in childhood obesity prevention within the wider system?

Starting solids: University of Swansea evaluation of HENRY brief intervention

Young children ‘like what they know’ and early experiences of eating that include a wide variety of healthy foods, tastes and textures are a vital window of opportunity to help children develop a liking for healthy foods.

With funding from Sylvia Adams Trust, Professor Amy Brown led a longitudinal study of the impact of HENRY’s starting solids workshop on parental feeding practices and infant food preferences - aimed at parents with a baby aged 4-6 months.

Overall, her findings showed that the workshop was highly valued by parents and carers who took part. It increased knowledge around how to introduce solid foods and signs of readiness alongside improving confidence across a range of different aspects of infant feeding. Notably, although many workshop participants were aware of guidance to start solid foods at around six months and planned to do so, many lacked certainty in how to do this. Parents and carers worried about what foods to give, in what quantity and how to do so safely. The workshop gave them the knowledge, skills and confidence to introduce their baby to a range of tastes, focusing on responsiveness and mealtime experience rather than amount consumed.

The workshop information was still clearly recalled amongst participants in the survey at 6 – 8 months and the interviews at 9 – 15 months.

Supporting a healthy lifestyle in the teenage years

We are working with University of Hertfordshire on a jointly-funded PhD project to develop, pilot and test a new intervention with young people aged 11-18 and their parents..

Following the literature review conducted in 20/21, this year focused development of the intervention through co-production with young people, with the pilot phase due to commence in April 2022.

Organisational management

A growing workforce

Our staff, freelance trainers and volunteers are at the heart of HENRY’s values-led ethos and high quality services. We continued to recruit and train new members of the HENRY team to expand capacity in line with increased demand. The HENRY team is now made up of:

72 employed staff 14 freelance trainers 27 sessional facilitators 37 volunteers

Staff experience of working for HENRY

Embedding our HENRY values across relationships and teams to create a work environment in which staff feel supported, valued and motivated is a core organisational priority. Staff retention, a key indicator of job satisfaction, was 95.2% over the last year (compared to 83.5% in the previous year).

This year we changed the format of the annual staff survey and used a sector-wide survey, enabling us to benchmark HENRY staff responses against 20,000 staff in similar voluntary sector organisations.

The results were very positive; the survey was completed by 81% of staff and showed staff satisfaction at HENRY is higher than the sector benchmark for 35 out of 49 measures.

Notable areas of organisational strength, with high levels of staff satisfaction evidenced by results at least 15% above the sector benchmark are:

Areas for development, with results on a par with the benchmark or slightly below, which we will be actively addressing in the coming year include:

A learning organisation

Recognising that active support for learning and development underpins continuous improvement, this year we invested in a new Learning and Improvement team, led by a senior manager, which brings together evaluation, internal training and organisational development. Initiatives that are already having a significant and positive impact on organisational effectiveness and staff support include:

Organisational policies and procedures

Policies are updated in alignment with legislation and national guidance, with new policies written as required. This governance cycle is overseen by the Director of Finance and Operations as part of HENRY’s ongoing risk management, with senior management involvement and sign off by the Board as appropriate.

Fundraising policy

HENRY is committed to responsible and ethical fundraising. We avoid putting undue pressure on anyone to donate, for example, we do not cold call, send direct mail, or engage in door-to-door fundraising. We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator and follow their Code of Practice for charities and fundraisers.

Risk management

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and put in place robust processes to mitigate exposure to these including maintaining a risk register. We score all risks by considering the impact of the risk and the probability of the risk occurring, identifying controls in place and determining if further mitigating action needs to be taken.

19

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Financial Review

Conscientious financial management and decision making processes mean that we are in a healthy and robust financial position as we move into 2022/23. A strong financial performance and the onboarding of new contracts and projects will support continued growth in years to come.

Summary of financial position at March 2022

Our total expenditure increased by 22% from £1.92m to £2.34m, mainly attributable to an increase in staff costs reflecting the increase in the number of staff and the use of sessional staff to support our service delivery. An in year deficit of £92k was funded by utilising £57k of restricted funds on designated service delivery with a further £35k from unrestricted funds being invested in strategic roles and IT to support organisational growth.

Reserves Policy

Our policy on reserves is reviewed annually by the Board of Trustees and has a threefold purpose to:

Our current policy is to hold sufficient reserves of no less than is required to wind up the organisation if needed, plus a buffer of 1 month’s running costs to cover periods of financial stress.

At the year-end unrestricted reserves amounted to £399k, with an additional £75k designated funds carried forward. This represents just under 2.5 months of total expenditure. The reserves policy and subsequent basis for the calculation is currently under review to ensure that it appropriately reflects the changing landscape in which the organisation operates and the reserves meet the needs of the organisation.

Restricted reserves at year end were £49k which related to grant-funded projects, details of which are in note 15 to the accounts.

20

HENRY Report of the Trustees For the year ended 31 March 2022

Investment Policy

HENRY invests surplus funds in higher interest bank accounts in order to maximise income from its cash balances. This policy is reviewed annually by the Finance Committee on behalf of the Trustees.

Looking ahead

HENRY is in a strong position – financially robust, delivering rapidly expanding and highly valued services, and with many new and exciting opportunities:

Our new 3-year Business Plan starting in April 2022 sets out a clear vision. By March 2025 HENRY will be:

To achieve our vision by March 2025, over the next 3 years we will be focusing on the following strategic objectives:

  1. Invest in workforce capacity and wellbeing – and enable people to assimilate change

  2. Build organisational resilience through investment in digital transformation

  3. Maximise the new opportunities and business models – balancing our core offer with innovation

  4. Forge new strategic partnerships to drive income, delivery and research

Independent auditors' report

To the members of

HENRY

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of HENRY (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and the related notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is 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).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

26

Independent auditors' report

To the members of

HENRY

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

27

Independent auditors' report

To the members of

HENRY

Responsibilities of the trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out in the trustees’ report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The procedures we carried out and the extent to which they are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, are detailed below:

(1) We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, and assessed the risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Throughout the audit, we remained alert to possible indications of non-compliance.

(2) We reviewed the charity’s policies and procedures in relation to:

(3) We inspected the minutes of trustee meetings.

28

Independent auditors' report

To the members of

HENRY

(4) We enquired about any non-routine communication with regulators and reviewed any reports made to them.

(5) We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and assessed their compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

(6) We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected transactions or balances that may indicate a risk of material fraud or error.

(7) We assessed the risk of fraud through management override of controls and carried out procedures to address this risk. Our procedures included:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. Irregularities that arise due to fraud can be even harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

1. Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

HENRY meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

b) Going concern basis of accounting

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves and having considered the impact of the ongoing Covid pandemic. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

c) Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Training commissions, licence fee income, income from the sale of resources received in advance of delivery of the goods and income from contracts is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met.

d) Donated services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item, is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised.

34

HENRY

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

  1. Accounting policies (continued)

Donated services and facilities (continued)

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

e) Interest receivable

f) Funds accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

g) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

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

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

2022 2021
Raising funds 2.4% 3.8%
Charitable activities 97.6% 96.2%

35

HENRY

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

1. Accounting policies (continued)

i) Redundancy costs

Where an employee receives a termination benefit the full cost is recognised at the date the employee is notified.

j) Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

Leasehold improvements Straight line over remaining life of lease Computer equipment Straight line over 3 years Fixtures and fittings Straight line over 4 years

k) Stock

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

l) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

m) Current asset investments

Current asset investments consist of cash held on deposit in interest bearing accounts. Such investments are measured at their fair value.

n) 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 of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

o) Creditors

Creditors 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

36

HENRY

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

1. Accounting policies (continued)

p) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

q) Pension costs

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. The pension costs charged to the statement of financial activities represents the contribution payable by the charitable company during the year.

r) Operating leases

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

s) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Balances denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the year end.

t) Accounting estimates and key judgements

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 if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are depreciation (as described in note 1 (j) above).

  1. Movements in funds (continued)

Healthy Families Programme Oxfordshire

HENRY seeks grant funding, corporate support, and other donations from multiple sources to fund the delivery of HENRY Healthy Families programmes (group and 1-to-1) in deprived areas of Oxfordshire. HENRY receives several small contributions (ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand pounds) to support this work.

Regional funding

Income and expenditure associated with smaller regional projects and charitable activities funded through donations and grants from multiple sources.

HENRY research hub

Funding to develop HENRY’s research and evaluation activities.

Sylvia Adams Charitable Trust

Funding to support HENRY’s work on introducing solid foods.

Purposes of designated funds

In May 2018 the trustees set aside £134,000 to invest in elements of our new 3 year strategic plan. Chiefly, investments in marketing, office infrastructure (as part of our move to new national office premises in December 2018) and in developing new training courses and family interventions. We entered 2021-22 with £75,392 remaining in our designated fund. Performance in the year meant that we did not require further use of designated funds and thus carry over this balance into 2022-23.
