they can fulfil their potential.

acquire new skills and gain valuable volunteering experience,
We continue to place great emphasis on homelessness prevention and run an educational project to
raise awareness of the realities of homelessness with young people in schools and colleges across
Doncaster.
A significant proportion of the clients we support are young parents, meaning we are simultaneously
supporting generations.
Our homelessness prevention work helps prevent young people from developing chaotic lifestyles and
the poverty, ill health, and social exclusion this can often lead to. Our work extends into related areas,
including support in developing essential life skills and accessing other services, such as support with
mentsl ill health.

Objectives, strategies and activities
Involving young people
The involvement of young people in developing and reviewing SeNi￿S is a core principle, reflecting a
client-led ethos and ensuring services are responsive to changing needs. During the year we
delivered over 1,000 hours of counselling and wellbeing support. a service that has grown significantly
in recent years based on client needs and feedback.
Jess, a client, stated, 'The support and help I've received from DHYP, especially Lisa and Andy, has
been absolutely fantastic, from the minute I got in touch to today I'm still receiving support from
DHYP."
This year, we continued with the client scrutlny arrangements, scrutinising key processes within
DHYP which strengthens the Vol￿ of young people within our organisation. For example, young
people reviewed our Employment Skills Service during the year, bringing their own lived experiences
to the project and significantly amending the project content.
Our services are young people-led and respond to emerging client needs which is reflected, for
example, in the content of our life skills sessions and Moving on Project which help prepare young
people for independent living.
We also supported young people to take part in the Vital Signs research for South Yorkshire's
Community Foundation, empowering them to have their say about what matters to them in their local
community.

Collaborats'on
We work closely with a range of statutory and voluntary organisations across Doncaster and regard
effective collaboration as crucial to m8ximising our impact.
There is a thriving voluntary, community, and faith sector in Doncaster, doing vitsl work in the
community. Through collaboration across all these sectors, we can extend the reach of our services
and provide learning and volunteering opportunities for young people.
Publlc boneflt
When planning the activities for the year the trustees have considered the Charity Commissions
guidance on public benefit. The activities described above, and achievements and future plans
outlined elsewhere in this report deliver positive change to a large number of young people and to the
community in general, and thus deliver public benefit.
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act
2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for
England and Wales.

Policy on resetvos
At the year end total reserves carried forward were £245,067 made up of £70,030 restricted funds and
£175,037 unrestricted funds of which £72,516 were designated. (2023.. Total funds of £206,665

The charity's unrestricted free reserves at 31 March 2024 were £102,365 (2023.. £103,639).
The reserves policy is reviewed annually. The policy commits the charity to assigning any unallocated
funds to the reserves on a year-on-year basis until the reserves represent three months, expenditure
of the Charity, which is estimated to be approximately £85,000. Funds generated beyond this will be
set aside to fund service delivery, including the purchase of propety to provide client accommodation.
The current level of reserves is above the 3 month expenditure target and the reserves that we are
gradually accruing will be allocated towards the purchase of a further property in Doncaster to provide
much-needed, good quality shared accomodation. Designated funds have been set aside for this
purpose and to cover major repairs to shared housing in the interim. Further amounts received as
unrestricted funds but not spent by the year end from several sources have been designated to be
spent on the Wellbeing Project next year.

Work, business, counselling and criminology studies. These placements give students vitsl workplace
experience and enrich DHYP through the ideas and inits'atives they bring to the organisation.

Donations and legacies
Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the
amount can be reliably measured.
In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity

and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Grants recelvable
Grants are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the
grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met,
the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be
released.
Deferred income
Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming
resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when..

charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on
estimated usage.
Charltabla activltles
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities
and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities
and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

undertake charitable activities, including admin costs, finance, IT, governance costs and other central
functions, and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of
resources.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity's compliance with constitutional and statutory
requirements, including preparation of statutory accounts, independent examination and trustees,

Trade debtor8
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers or grant funders for services perfomed in the
ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due less any provision for impairment. A
provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the
charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an
insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade creditors
Creditors and provisions 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. Creditors and provisions are normally
recognised at their settlement amount.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary
course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity
d￿S not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the
creditor for at least ￿e1ve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer
settlement for at least I￿e1ve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current
liabilities.
Borrowlngs
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference be￿een
the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a
charge to the Statement of Financial Activikn'es over the period of the relevant borrowing.
Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest
payable and similar charges.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer
settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the repoth'ng date.
Fund structure
Unrestricled income funds are gener81 funds that are available for use at the trustees's discretion in
furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes at the discretion of the
trustees.
Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the
use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
Penslons and other post retlrement obllgatlons
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which
fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation
to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets lo pay all employees the
benefit relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities
when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is
recognised as a prepayment.
