## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

The trustees have pleasure in presenting their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] August 2022. 

Slide Away was founded by the Ross family in memory of their son, Daniel. Following inspiration and encouragement from other regional charities, Slide Away was set up in 2005 as a charity in its own right and it quickly grew to impact several towns in the West Kent area. 

Having seen the charity's coverage grow, the trustees started to reappraise its position, and in 2008 undertook a period of development which involved taking on new trustees and adopting a new, more disciplined, approach which reflected the evolving and widening nature of the charity's involvement in the specialised sector in which it operates. This process involved the incorporation of the existing unincorporated charity in 2010. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association dated 20 April 2010, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company which is governed under its Articles of Association. 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee with no share capital (registration no. 07246017) and a registered charity (registration no. 1136331). In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity. The charity’s Memorandum and Articles of Association is the primary governing document of the charity. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The objects of the charity are to relieve the mental, physical, and emotional distress of children and young people who are suffering from bereavement or loss, by the provision of support and counselling services and by providing their families with advice, information and training in the issues surrounding child bereavement. 

The charity seeks to fulfil these objectives through the provision of bereavement support to children following the death of a family member or to children who are living with a family member with a terminal illness. Advice and guidance are available to parents to help them understand the grief reactions of their child according to their developmental age. The individual needs of all children referred to the charity are assessed to identify, with the family, the most appropriate intervention. Support includes individual sessions and attendance at either a ‘Memory Day’ or ‘Workshop’ to meet with other children who are in a similar situation. The charity’s therapeutic interventions work to the Outcomes Framework of the Childhood Bereavement Service. The charity works closely with schools where a member of staff is identified to take responsibility for referrals and liaise with the family and the charity. 

## **Public benefit** 

The charity’s trustees have complied with their duties under the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Governance** 

## **Structure and management** 

The main board of trustees directs the charity's focus and strategy. The main board meets six times a year, but its members are also in constant communication with each other, communicating as a group and as individuals through emails and ad hoc meetings when necessary or useful. 

The charity employs an Operations Manager and a Clinical Manager who together are responsible for the day to day running of the charity. They remain in close contact with each of the trustees. 

The directors consider the board of directors, who are the charity’s trustees, the Operations Manager, and the Clinical Manager as the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running, and operating the charity on a day-to-day basis. All the trustees give their time freely and no trustee received remuneration in the year. Staff pay is reviewed annually by the trustees and is benchmarked against pay levels in other local charities of a similar size. 

The trustees are responsible for putting in place practices and methods that ensure the governance of the charity is maintained at a high standard. To this end, all the policies are periodically reviewed, and the trustees consider and debate organisational risks at each trustee meeting. The trustees also complete a Skills Audit periodically, to recognise relative strengths and weaknesses in the composition of the trustee board and identify where any skills gaps exist. 

## **Selection, appointment, and removal of trustees** 

When an appointment is considered (on the resignation of a trustee, in response to a perceived lack of skills in a particular area, or where the appointment would be of benefit to the charity) the trustee board consider recruitment from the network of child bereavement specialists and the community as a whole. If necessary, trustees will open the process to the wider community depending on the nature of the vacancy, placement, or replacement. 

On appointment, all new trustees receive a full induction to the organisation. They are provided with relevant documentation and background information and are then subject to an initiation process that ensures that they understand the charity's operations and objectives. All trustees are required to complete safeguarding training. 

The trustees are aware of the need for ongoing self-education and actively monitor their own knowledge bases.

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The period covered by this report, 1[st] September 2021 to 31[st] August 2022, was a very busy time for Slide Away with an increase in enquiries from families, schools, and other professionals together with an increase in referral numbers.  A total of 13 workshops and memory days were offered during the academic year, with an additional three individual sessions pre and post a workshop for each young person bereaved of a parent or sibling. 

Workshops designed specifically to meet the needs of children with SEND and young children at Key Stage 1 have proved successful with both children and parents benefiting from attending the sessions together.  Parents of young people attending other workshops are always encouraged to attend a half day parent session - eight of which were offered this year. 

Individual support for as long as needed was also offered to those young people living with a terminally ill family member, together with the option to join the Slide Away Bears group. Our pre-bereavement support has been funded for a second year by the Cobtree Charity Trust to whom we are extremely grateful.   The annual river trip organised and funded by the Rotary Club of Tonbridge was greatly appreciated by the families who attended. 

School Bereavement Contacts continue to contribute to Slide Away’s work and there are currently 139 schools with a School Bereavement Contact who has accessed our free SBC training.  In addition, funding from The Bedgebury Foundation provided us with the opportunity to offer the first module of Slide Away’s training programme Children’s Grief to 40 SBCs.  The training programme, which covers topics including the support of children at different ages, children with SEND and those bereaved by suicide, received approval for the purpose of CPD from the British Psychological Society in April 2022. 

During the academic year we were able to provide guidance and resources to those schools supporting young people escaping the war in the Ukraine. To ensure that we were ready to support families from the Ukraine we designed a workshop that recognised the trauma of their experiences. 

The responsibility for the clinical delivery of Slide Away’s service rests on the shoulders of our Clinical Services Manager, Laura Thompson who brings a wealth of experience to Slide Away.  Laura supports not only families and schools, but our staff team too. 

Through social media and our website, we raised awareness of national events and other support organisations, for example, Children’s Grief Awareness Week, Children’s Mental Health Week, and the Sibling Support Organisation.  As members of the Childhood Bereavement Network, we receive useful information with regard to supporting bereaved young people and the latest research.  The management of social media, our website and communication with our schools is managed by Rachel Barnsby.

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

Slide Away benefitted from a number of fundraising events organised by individuals, families, schools, and local communities.  These included an epic cycle ride to Barcelona, the annual Blue Reef Festival, Ride London, Waitrose v Spurs Legends football match, concerts held by the Sutton Valence Choral Society and the Kemsing Singers, the North Downs Run, Silly Socks, and Christmas Jumper Days and so much more.  Slide Away is extremely grateful to everyone who has participated in a fundraising event or supported one.  Also, to those families who have made donations to support our work in memory of a loved one. 

We achieved positive outcomes from many of our funding bids.  Continued support from the Kent Community Foundation and a grant of £30,000 from the Colyer Fergusson Charitable Trust has ensured that the staff team managing both the operational and clinical delivery of our service remain in post with the support of sessional staff.  Early Help and Reconnect Grants enabled us to target the priorities of Tonbridge and Malling, Tunbridge Wells, Maidstone, and Sevenoaks.  Sevenoaks Round Table, Rotary Kings Hill, The Worley Day Trust provided funds to support our workshops and the purchase of resources.  Slide Away appreciates that these organisations recognise and support Slide Away’s work with bereaved children and young people. 

To meet the increased demand for Slide Away’s service, Trustees agreed in the summer term 2022 to employ an independent bid writer and Jenny Brick has worked with us since June.  The trustees also agreed to the creation of a new role to support the Clinical Services Manager.  Penny Harrison, who has led Slide Away workshops for a number of years, was appointed to the post of Senior Bereavement Practitioner.  Both Jenny and Penny have already made a huge contribution to Slide Away’s work. 

Bruce, together with his handler Sally McCarville, also joined the team in the summer term.  Sally was aware of Slide Away’s work through her position as an Assistant Head Teacher and offered Bruce’s services to Slide Away.  Bruce is very proud to be part of the dog therapy team at Kent Police and we understand that he likes long walks and muddy puddles.  Bruce will be supporting young people at our workshops and memory days. 

The busy summer term saw us take the decision to move our location from Stansted Village Hall to Hope Hill at Meopham.  Stansted Village Hall Committee have been incredibly supportive and the decision to move was not taken lightly.  However, the need for more than one room and the hall’s isolated location, resulted in a move to Hope Hill that is owned by Gravesham District Scout Association.  The venue is easily accessible, provides the rooms required and offers an abundance of outdoor space. 

Following a conversation with Ema Rowe, a children’s author and founder of the Wild Wellies Forest School, Ema was inspired to write a story, together with ideas for activities, that could offer young people the opportunity to manage their grief in the natural environment.  The new venue at Hope Hill

will provide the ideal location.  With support from the Charles Lewis Foundation, Ema’s book should be ready for publication in 2023 giving bereaved young people the opportunity to experience Forest School weekends with Slide Away. 

A successful application for a KCC combined member’s grant to contribute to an update of Slide Away’s website, enabled our COO during the year, Sue Crocker, to commence work with Rachel Barnsby and Purpletech.  This remains a ‘work in progress’ with the launch anticipated in 2023. 

Reviewing the 2021-22 academic year has highlighted just how much Slide Away has achieved. Slide Away’s achievements are the result of the commitment and support of our salaried staff, the sessional workshop team, volunteers, and trustees who generously give of their time to help bereaved young people in Kent. 

Slide Away was extremely proud to have been informed at the close of the academic year that it was one of four finalists in the Kent Charity Awards. 

## **Financial review** 

The total incoming resources for the year totalled £122,678 (2021 £84,609) and expenditure totalled £76,746 (2021 £47,653) leaving a surplus of £45,932 for the year (2021 £36,956). 

The Independent Examination of these financial statements was carried out by a volunteer, and, in accordance with the accounting policy, its value has not been included as either income or an expense. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The level of reserves held by the charity is monitored by trustees. The average full cycle of workshop attendance is considered to take 9 months for each child. The trustees feel that the charity should be able to fund a full cycle of support at any point in time and therefore aim to hold an amount equal to at least 9 months’ charitable activity costs (i.e. the costs of providing the workshop and counselling services, and all related support costs) in unrestricted reserves. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

Slide Away’s services are in ever greater demand and the trustees are now being asked to extend the charity's support into other towns and schools in Kent. However, conversely, funding is more difficult to source. As we now live in a period of austere public funding, the Slide Away trustees remain aware of their duty to keep Slide Away’s valuable public service in place, and so continually undertake reviews (both internal and external) to consider the future direction of the charity and identify areas for development. To this end the trustees have appointed the charity’s Founder to focus on obtaining core funding from more specialised organisations.

Year ended 31[st] August 2022 


## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **a) Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and include the results of the charity's operations which are described in the Report of the trustees. 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006 and follow the recommendations in the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP FRS 102) Accounting and Reporting by Charities, issued by the Charity Commission, the Charities Act 2011, and the requirements of the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

As the charity has met and exceeded the requirements of its reserves policy, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 

## **b) Income** 

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

The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross, with the associated costs included in fundraising costs. 

Income from 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. 

Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent that the goods have been provided or on completion of the service. The charity has received government grants in the financial year. 

Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. 

Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. Donated services and facilities are included when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Where the gift is consumed immediately, it is recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the Statement of financial activities. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **c) Expenditure** 

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

Expenditure is classified by activity. Wherever possible costs are allocated directly to the appropriate activity; other costs common to all activities are apportioned between activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Fundraising expenditure comprises costs incurred in encouraging people and organisations to contribute financially to the work of the charity. This includes the cost of advertising for donations and the staging of fundraising events. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred in the delivery of the objects of the charity, including any associated support costs. 

Support costs, which are the costs incurred in the overall direction and administration of each activity that are not directly attributable to charitable activities, are apportioned on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Expenditure on governance includes all audit, accountancy, and legal fees. 

In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the charity’s trustees and mentors is not recognised in the financial statements. 

All expenditure is stated inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 

## **d) Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets costing £1,500 or more are capitalised and recognised when the future economic benefits are probable and the cost of the or value of the asset can be measured reliably. 

## **e) Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any discount offered. 

## **f) 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 the opening of the deposit or similar account.

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **g) Liabilities** 

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 charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debtor the amount it has received as an advance payment for the goods or services it must provide. 

## **h) 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. 

## **i) Pension** 

The charity contributes to a defined contribution group personal pension scheme (NEST) and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charity to the fund in respect of the year. 

## **j) Funds** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the charity and have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **k) Direct taxation** 

The company is a registered charity and is therefore not liable for income tax or corporation tax on its charitable activities as it falls within the various exemptions available to registered charities.
