TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the company for the year from 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The annual report serves the purposes of both a trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2015) as amended by Update Bulletin 2 (effective January 2019).

Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

The principal objects of the charity are:

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

b. Main activities undertaken to further the company's purposes for the public benefit

The trustees have complied with the duty (set out in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006) to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charities Commission. The trustees have considered the public benefit delivered by Hetty’s and have made the following response: “Our aim is to benefit disadvantaged families and communities by providing free support around substance misuse. Our primary focus is on North Nottinghamshire although we are happy to share our expertise across the UK and mentor similar organisations according to need.”

Achievements and performance

a. Review of activities

Hetty's board confirms that on a fund by fund basis the charity's assets are available and adequate to fulfil the obligations of the charity. The board regards all activities as fulfilling the main objective of the charity, however, certain funds are restricted to particular areas of activity within the charity’s main objectives and these are classified as restricted funds.

Principal funding sources:

The charity's core funding in 2020-2021 was comprised of a grant from the substance treatment provider in

Nottinghamshire ‘Change, Grow, Live’ (CGL), as well as a restricted grant from The Community Fund.

Other funding grants and donations were provided from the following organisations:

About the service

Hetty’s is a dedicated family service, providing emotional and practical support to family members affected by a loved one’s substance or alcohol misuse. With deep community roots and over 25 years’ experience, Hetty’s has established a reputation of non-judgmental and effective support provision, which is clearly evidenced in service feedback and partnership support.

Family members enter the service during times of despair and chaos, and, using a variety of interventions, Hetty’s aim is to reduce isolation and empower families, individuals, and communities to maximise and improve their social capital and life chances. However, management recognises that the impact on families can be complex, and often more than one member of the family may require support at any one time, and so, where possible, the service has been tailored to ensure that it supports whole families with their individual issues by working in close partnership with other support services.

Hetty’s provides a range of services that are aimed at providing diversity of engagement, and progression opportunities, for clients. These include:

National picture:

According to the UKDPC study (2009) "Supporting the supporters: families of drug misusers", the cost of the harms experienced by families as a result of their relative’s drug use amounts to £1.8 billion per year. These

Page 3

HETTY'S (a company limited by guarantee)

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Achievements and performance (continued)

harms include psychological distress, mental and physical ill health, domestic violence (which can often accompany substance misuse), negative financial impacts including theft and paying off drug debts, and the impact on employment through stress or the need to provide care for the user (or the user’s children, in the case of many grandparent carers).

The UK Drug Policy Commission states that "families can and do contribute" to routine care and support of drug misusers, and in some cases provide detoxification services at home – relieving the pressure on NHS services as well as providing accommodation, support and day-to-day care that might otherwise need to be provided by the state’. The report estimated these cost savings to the state at £750 million per year.

Service Evaluation:

Hetty’s successfully engaged and worked with 478 individual clients in the reporting period 1 April 2020 – 31 March 2021. These unique clients accessed 5,556 sessions from a range of support on offer, with 7,966 attendances within the sessions. Due to the duration of time clients access the service Hetty's delivered interventions to approximately 200 actively engaged clients every month.

In response to the COVID – 19 pandemic Hetty’s have devised a new pathway and support contract that not only streamlines the service but helps Hetty’s to respond to the ever increasing demand and new referrals. Hetty’s have learnt and developed their digital offer during the pandemic and have embedded digital practises that respond and meet the client’s and service need.

Evaluation

Evaluating the service in general, and in particular from the 1-1 provision, is key to ensuring that techniques and support delivery remain effective. This evaluation process consists of client feedback questionnaires, client and staff focus group sessions, and using the proven client score based RickterTM tool

Results from the general client questionnaires, asked of clients on exit from the service, have been really positive for the past year, with 100% of respondents rating the service they had received as ‘Excellent’ or ‘Very good’.

A snapshot of data from Rickter a self-rated tool which measures the journey travelled by Hetty’s clients, from entering Hetty’s service pathway to review and exit .

Financial review

a. Going concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.

b. Reserves policy

The board has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible assets held by the charity should be around 12 months of current expenditure. Due to changes in funding by the Local Authorities in October 2014, families where the substance user is not obtaining treatment from a service provider are no longer funded and so a strategic plan was implemented to cover this deficit. Hetty’s were successful with their application for the ‘Reaching Communities’ funding from The Community Fund, covering these “Forgotten Families”, and this title has stayed with the project and has provided a 5 year stepped reduction grant, 2019/20 saw the commencement of year 5 of this grant.

Financial position:

The charity needs reserves to enable it to meet both its ongoing commitments in respect of its general charitable activities and to meet its future operating requirements. The level of total reserves is judged appropriate for the present situation and needs of the charity. The trustees will review this position and policy on an annual basis.

Structure, governance and management

a. Constitution

Hetty's is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee, number 1133138 and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Hetty's ('the company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the company (and 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 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 the company's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('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 matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  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.

This report is made solely to the company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the company's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

Page 12

HETTY'S (a company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1. Accounting policies

1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Hetty's 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.

1.2 Going concern

At the date of signing there is a degree of uncertainty about the economic impact of COVID-19. The trustees continue to monitor the position closely however they believe that the company can continue at its current level of activity subject to continued support from funders and the bank and they therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis.

1.3 Income

All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Grants are included in the statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.

1.4 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Page 13

HETTY'S (a company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1. Accounting policies (continued)

1.4 Expenditure (continued)

Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

1.5 Government grants

Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the statement of financial activities as the related expenditure is incurred.

1.6 Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing £2,500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, .

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

Freehold property - straight line over 25 or 50 years
Fixtures and fittings - 1/3 straight line basis

1.8 Debtors

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

1.9 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and 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.

Page 14

HETTY'S (a company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1. Accounting policies (continued)

1.10 Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

1.11 Financial instruments
