By 2025, we will have designed and launched the following new services:

Parent and Child Relational Play

Young People’s Counselling

Family Counselling

Legal services department

2. Expand national online services to increase the scale and accessibility of our services

By 2025 we will have developed a hybrid model of delivery of all our services that has supported 5000 families

3, Launch face-to-face services in partnership with local partners in two new regions in the UK

We will have designed, funded and launched the following services in the North West England and South Wales:

Parent/Carer Counselling

Play Therapy

Parent Training

Young People’s Counselling

4, Develop a suite of training resources and programs for professionals in key services

By 2025 we will have reached 1500 professionals through our online and face-to=face training program and resources

As described below, our services have continued to grow in response to the needs of our clients both in depth and breadth. Our online services are continuing to develop at pace, ensuring that our hybrid delivery model provides the opportunity for clients across the country to access our services.

Our development and fundraising work to launch new services in Wales has set us up to launch new face to face services in the next financial year.

We carried out a feasibility work to develop our new professional training program and secured two years of funding to pilot a new program of delivery across the UK.

In addition we completed research on behalf of the Ministry of Justice into our clients experience of the presumption of parental responsibility.

22-23 was an important year for the organisation as we celebrated our 30th Anniversary. We decided to take this opportunity to rebrand the organisation. A co-produced process led us to the decision to rebrand to ‘We Stand’. Our new brand will be launched in summer 2023 as part of our 30th Anniversary celebrations.

Trustees’ Report

This year has not been without its challenges. For the last few years, we have been part-funded by a number of government departments. This year we were unsuccessful in a few key bids which impacted our overall income for the year. Over the last two years, we have been building our reserves and we were able to maintain our staff team throughout 22-23 to ensure that we were able to continue the current services at the same level, In March 2023, we had to make the difficult decision to reduce our staff team. We were, however, able to maintain all services but had to reduce the capacity of the staff team in each service. At the time of writing, Dec 2023, our funding position has significantly improved for 23 - 24 and we have attracted renewal funding and funding from new funders including funding from the Ministry of Justice to develop our Wales work.

We would like to take this opportunity to fund our passionate, resilient and dedicated staff and volunteer team. We would also like to thank all our stakeholders, funders, team members and volunteers who have given their time and expertise to Mosac over the last 30 years.

Our Services in 2022 - 2023

Child sexual abuse is a systemic trauma impacting the whole family. Child victims face an increased likelihood of further abuse and life-limiting problems as a result. At the same time the whole family, without appropriate support, will struggle to overcome the collective trauma and provide the stability and support that a child victim needs.

It is estimated that one in 20 children have been sexually abused (NSPCC 2021), with a 57% increase in offences reported between 2014 and 2019. in 2021/22 there was a 15% rise in the Identification of child sexual abuse by police and children’s services, with referrals to Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARCs) also increasing. However, prosecutions have dropped by around half in four years (NSPCC 2022). Cases are also taking longer to resolve. This trend is reflected in We Stand’s work, with a 127% increase in calls to our helpline since 2020. At the same time, it is estimated that far more children are being abused than services currently identify (CECSA 2023).

We Stand is the only national charity that specialises in helping non-abusing parents and carers to protect and support their sexually abused children. We receive calls every day from those who have just found out that their child has been abused. While some organisations focus solely on the child, our model empowers the whole non-abusing family to heal and move forward together. We act as a ‘one stop’ point of information, guidance, therapeutic and training support.

1. Helpline

Our free national helpline provides confidential, non-judgmental, and informative support to parents, carers, and professionals working in the field. Lines are open Monday to Thursday from 10am, closing at 2pm, 4pm or 6pm, depending on available volunteers. Our fully trained and experienced volunteers, supported by a dedicated member of staff, help callers explore ways to cope in the moment and determine a way forward. Each caller receives a needs assessment, providing insight into their immediate circumstances, wants, and needs. This might include referral to other We Stand services or connecting them with partner organisations.

The helpline is a critical and growing part of our work, not only because it is the access point to all other services, but in setting the tone and giving each client an understanding of how it might feel to access more in-depth support.

“It was such a relief speaking with you. Thank you for your time and wisdom. Everything you shared made sense and it was good to be heard, not judged, and understood,”

“The power of speaking to someone who has the experience and empathy to be there in just the right way for me. To listen to me, to encourage me and provide a ray of light in very dark times.”

Overall, we have been managing increased complexity in calls to our helpline with families dealing with new and unexpected hardship. For example, there have been increased reports of suicide ideation and an increase in the number of historical disclosures of abuse. As a result, we have grown our volunteer team, boosted by additional training and professional development, allowing volunteers to feel fully prepared. This includes an eight-week induction programme which covers topics such as the impact of abuse on the whole family, listening skills, and cultural issues.

2.Children and young people’s services

After experiencing sexual abuse, a child-whatever their age-may have feelings that are difficult for them to understand and cope with. They may fee! responsible for and/or angry about what has happened to them; they can feel guilty and confused, and they may fear what will happen next. Our creative arts therapy service is open to child victims up to the age of 16, and their siblings, so iong as their non-abusing parent or carer is engaging in their own counselling.

“Talking about problems can be hard for children. The service at We Stand uses a non-directive, child centred approach that allows children to explore their thoughts and feelings, without having to use words to articulate themselves.” ClaraJane Lewis, Children & Young People’s Manager

Trustees’ Report

“There has been a complete change in the way my child reacts and interacts with her siblings. She shows more compassion and understanding in disputes, being calmer and more in control of herself.” “He has developed more meaningful and established friendships over the course of the academic year. He ts also less prone to start fights with his sibling.”

Case Study: Play Therapy

Child-C is a 12-year-old boy who accessed Play Therapy following a referral by his mum who had previously accessed several We Stand services. Mum described Child-C as a social and confident child before he started a new school. Shortly thereafter mum noticed significant and concerning changes in his personality and behaviour but attributed this to her separation from the child’s father and changes at home. Some months later Child-C disclosed to mum that he was being sexually and physically abused by two children at school. The children (brothers) were a year older than Child-C. Both social care and the police have been involved but so far, no further action has been taken.

In the first session Child-C disclosed that when he was little, boys had done some terrible things to him, and it made him feel sad and uncomfortable. He spoke of finding school and friendships difficult and that he just wanted to feel good on the inside. His movements were heavy and slow, his head was low, and when he spoke it was very quiet.

Over the sessions Child-C focused on the sand tray and other sensory activities, such as playdough and shaving foam. Using sand and small world figures he created narratives of attack, despair, and helplessness. Over time, elements that provided safety, empowerment and control for the characters appeared within the play. He started to use the space to process his feelings, make sense of them, and began to find his own solutions to difficult situations.

Both Child-C and mum reported significant changes at home and school, having made friends and found a teacher whom he trusted. Physically Child-C had also changed; he stood taller and held his head up, greeting school staff with confidence. Mum reports that she had also noticed this change in their daily lives.

To complement our core Play Therapy service for children and young people, we introduced Parent and Child Relational Play for the whole family. This involves five one-to-one parent/carer sessions that cover: ‘How trauma impacts family relationships’; ‘Skills and tools needed to support play and communication’, ‘Skills and tools that will strengthen family bonds’; ‘Skills and tools that will enhance verbal and non-verbal communication’, and ‘Opportunities to practise newly acquired skills’. As a result, parents and carers are reporting positive changes in the family dynamic.

3. Parent counselling

Non-abusing parents and carers experience feelings of loss, isolation, guilt, anger, and anxiety, while also dealing with significant life changes and tending to their family’s day-to-day needs. Our counselling service provides a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space where they can feel supported and listened to, One-to-one sessions, whether online or in-person, provide the space needed to explore their experiences, understand conflicting feelings, and make choices that will minimise long-term damage to the family unit and enhance their future.

Trustees’ Report

“! really feel like it saved my life, | was able to be heard and validated. It helped me find my feet when | was falling apart. Being understood with compassion helped me let go of so much anger | was holding on to. It helped me turn a corner.”

“Attending We Stand is like a real ‘safety net' and it is comforting to know that they ‘understand’ the horrific situation that was being presented to me as a mother. The guilt, anger and sheer frustration that lives with me and | have been carrying around due to someone's sickness.”

At present, the service has a waiting time of three-six months, but we are working to bring this down by recruiting additional volunteers. We ask that they are working towards a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), as well as relevant experience. To support recruitment, we have introduced a more comprehensive and structured volunteer support programme. This includes monthly check-ins, allowing volunteers to share experiences, and professional development opportunities with direct relevance.

Case study: Niamh (as written by a We Stand counsellor)

Niamh (name changed), aged 47, lives with her husband and 19-year-old daughter. She contacted We Stand following a disclosure of sexual abuse by her daughter. The perpetrator was her son. Niamh:wanted to find ways of alleviating her stress and anxiety.

in her first sessions she spoke of her fear of people gossiping and judging her family. She spoke of her devastation, anger, guilt, shame, and failures as a parent. She felt conflicted about her son who had been criminally charged but had not taken responsibility or accountability for what had happened. She talked about how much she still cared for him as a mother and would like to understand his actions. She realised that she may never get those answers. She explored her feelings of loneliness and isolation regarding her position as a mother of both victim and perpetrator.

Together we worked through her feelings, as well as her isolation and fear about the pending court case (this has since been pushed back to March 2024}. We explored her conflicted feelings towards her son and how this impacts how she sees herself.

Trustees’ Report

As Niamh was self-aware, she had a good understanding of how she responds in stressful situations, which we were able to build upon, We explored ways to help her relax and disengage from everything that was going on around her. We worked on techniques to stay present in the here and now and not to focus on the past or worry too much about the future. Niamh stated that this was helping her to regulate emotions and calm negative thoughts. This became more apparent as the initial court date approached. While she stated she was feeling overwhelmed at times, she was also able to avoid falling into what she called her ‘pit of despair.’ As we approached the end of counselling Niamh’s CORE10 outcome scores dropped from 21 to 8 (CORE10 measures include anxiety, depression, trauma, functioning and risk to self; the highest score is 40 the lowest score is 0). Although she was sad that the counselling was ending, she acknowledged her increased understanding of emotions and ability to mitigate negative feelings.

We have encouraged Niamh to keep in touch and access other We Stand services in future if helpful.

4, Training

. Training for parents and carers

We understand how difficult parenting can be after a disclosure of child sexual abuse. To address this, we have developed a four week programme which aims to help parents support their children through trauma and regain confidence in their parenting. We deliver a structured four-week group programme and tailored 1-2-1 sessions depending on need. Since first piloting the work in 2021, the structure and content has evolved in response to delegate feedback.

----- Start of picture text -----
The current programme structure is as follows:
Group ——_| Delivered online,twohourspersession |
“Session 1 |‘Understanding
|
Session2 |Howtohavedifficultconversations.’the impact of traumaonthe= brain’= = sssS—S |
“Session 3.| ‘TherapeuticParenting- creating safety, structure, routine, honesty andfeelings.’
“Session4| “Therapeutic Parenting- behaviour,boundaries, negotiation, andconsequences.’
----- End of picture text -----

Prior to group or individual training, participants are sent We Stand’s ‘What is Abuse?’ resource. They also take away information on ‘Body Safety Rules’, ‘The Grooming Process’, ‘Holding Space for a Child’, ‘Staying Safe Online’, and ‘Self-Care’,

Target outcomes include:

e Parents and carers are better able to respond confidently and effectively to the changing needs of their child/children. Parents and carers are better able to cope with challenging situations, with greater resilience in their daily lives. e Parents and carers are better able to support the whole non-abusing family, ensuring they can move forward together in a positive way.

Trustees’ Report

Recent anecdotal feedback has included:

“ feel less guilt and shame, which was a constant. | am doing the best | can, in sometimes very difficult situations and circumstances.”

“| am leaving behind feelings of isolation — | am not the only person going through this. I'm not'the only parent supporting their child through such a terrible experience.”

“| feel more in control of our lives, instead of always worrying that | could be making it worse and causing more harm than good...”

For several years, we have offered ad-hoc training sessions for professionals who meet our client group, such as the police or those working in the legal system. With support from the Enterprise Development Trust, we carried out a feasibility study to establish whether there was an appetite for a more comprehensive, formal offer. We spent last year developing content that would appeal to and engage with a wide audience, We have now devised five one-hour lunchtime talks which can be accessed individually or as a series. Topics include the impact of abuse on the whole family, the grooming process, and working in a ‘trauma informed’ way to best support victims. We also offer a one-day training (‘Working with Families impacted by Child Sexual Abuse’) that support delegates to better understand Child Sexual Abuse and the impact on the whole family.

Key learning:

Building confidence in detecting and responding appropriately to allegations of sexual abuse.

How perpetrators operate, and understanding the non-abusing parent/carers response.

How to effectively work with parents/carers to provide appropriate support and protection. Why children and young people have difficulty disclosing abuse and the consequences.

All content is rooted in the cases of our clients and their experience of meeting statutory and other service providers, whether positive or negative. Our goal is to support professionals to better understand child sexual abuse, the impact of abuse on both the victim and their families, and for them to feel more confident and equipped to engage with families following a disclosure of abuse.

5, Advocacy

We Stand’s long standing advice service for families (covering issues such as housing and working with social care) continues to be valued by clients. In recent years however, there has been a growing demand for qualified legal advice from someone with specific expertise in child sexual abuse. Most of our clients are not eligible for legal aid (the evidential threshold is high, and the financial threshold to qualify low) but cannot afford private representation. They often find themselves navigating a complex legal system involving multiple agencies with little or no independent guidance or support. Even those who can afford legal support find there is limited understanding of sexual abuse and how this impacts the family. To help clients in situations like this, we have appointed a fully qualified in-house solicitor.

Direct support will include immediate risk reduction (such as non-molestation orders), explaining family law and processes, assisting the client to access justice and support throughout the process, and aiding the client to represent themselves. We will also provide complementary advice outside of family law, such as how to engage with the police and social services. The service will not extend to representing or acting on behalf of clients during court proceedings but instead focus on helping families to navigate the system with confidence and equip them with appropriate knowledge.

Trustees’ Report

Our goal is to achieve the best possible outcome for abused children and the wider family while minimising stress and ongoing trauma. We will: Explain the legal process in-depth, why it is the way it is, and possible outcomes.

Help complete mandatory tasks, such as writing a chronology of events or witness statements.

Allow for questions to be asked and answered in full, at no cost to the client. Help clients preparing to act as a ‘litigant in person’ during court proceedings. Provide ‘end-to-end’ support to families throughout their engagement in the judicial system.

“Thank you for being on my side and fighting in my corner. It helped keep me calm knowing you would be there.” Client following a Social Services meeting attended by We Stand

“| thank you once again sincerely for your practical advice and support as without a word of exaggeration, it did mean a lot to me after much struggle about fully ensuring my daughter's safety.

Cross Organisational Work:

Ministry of Justice Research:

We completed a piece of research commissioned by the Ministry of Justice to look at the experience of families who have been impacted by child sexual abuse in the Family Court System. Due to be published in the next quarter, the research highlights the significant injustices that our families face and how their voices are often excluded from the process. We want to build on this research by working with those involved and other clients affected by similar challenges to highlight current and emerging issues to policymakers.

Theory of Change

In Summer 2022, together as a team, we created a Theory of Change to ensure that we effectively articulate the work of the organisation, our aims, outcomes, and outputs. The exercise gave us an opportunity to examine what it is our direct services achieve. As part of this, we agreed that our client work has two aims: 1. That all survivors and their families affected by Child Sexual Abuse get the support that they need when they need it, and 2. That children who are the victims of sexual abuse and their families achieve the best possible outcomes from the support they receive.

New Services: We will introduce a new Young People’s Counselling service to work one-to-one with young people aged 14 - 21. Some young people told us they were discouraged by the idea of ‘creative arts therapy’, and wanted a more adult approach, akin to traditional ‘two chair’ therapy. The new service will combine talking therapy and creative tools to support young people to process trauma in an age-appropriate way. Our therapists will have the skills needed to move between talking and creative arts approaches, such as drawing, guided visualisation or sand tray work.

Welsh Development

While we have madea significant and positive difference to thousands of lives, our face-to-face work has, for 30 years, been confined to our offices in South London. The pandemic helped us to expand nationally through digital services, but we became increasingly alarmed by the lack of in-person provision available in other parts of the country.

We have made significant progress in developing our work in Wales. We are now working in partnership with South Wales Charity, Valleys Kids to develop a program of support for Families across South East Wales. We are working together to meet with potential partners, funders and key policy makers. We have been invited by the Lottery in Wales to submit a joint bid with Valleys kids and we have submitted an application to the Ministry of Justice to launch the work in 2023-2024.

Trustees’ Report

We have decided to launch the proposed peer support programme that will enable protective parents and carers to come together, share life stories, and inform the future strategic direction of the organisation in South Wales alongside our new program of support. Together with Valleys Kids expertise on supporting families, we feel the new program will provide the best context for trialling this new area of work,

Cross-Organisational Work:

Rebranding from Mosac to We Stand

To engage with a wider audience, we have just completed a branding exercise which led to a new name. Originally, MOSAC was used as an acronym for ‘Mothers of Sexually Abused Children’. Ten years ago, we dropped the full name and instead used just Mosac. However, we found that we were often confused for other charities and people sometimes used the original acronym, suggesting we only work with mothers.

We feel that the new name sums up who we are. We are an organisation that stands together with people in their darkest moments, we are also an organisation that stands up for justice and we will work to influence the system that makes it so difficult for our families to move forward together.

The reflections of our clients and volunteers guided our final decision:

“You often feel like you're standing alone. ‘We Stand’ feels good because not many people do stand with you on this journey but here [at the charity] people do stand with you. If someone has gone through this, this name would resonate with them...” In Summer 2023, we will launch the new brand with a 30th Anniversary celebration and rebrand event. We will launch our new website and rebranded material.

Financial Review

This year our in-year income was £297,450, our brought forward funds were £392,872. The expenditure for the year was £573,491. Our carried forward funds to 23-24 is £116,831

We started the year with a significant carry over from 21-22 as a result of increasing our reserves over the previous two years and an increased level of restricted funds to bring into 22-23 as a result of increased emergency funding during Covid.

22-23 was a challenging year for fundraising. This was a combination of some key funds closing while they reviewed their strategy, a decrease in funds being given out following the large amount of funding being released during Covid and specifically for us, we were unable to secure government funding for the first time since 2018.

At the time of writing, Dec 2023, our funding position has significantly improved for 23 - 24 and we have attracted renewal funding and funding from new funders including funding from the Ministry of Justice to develop our Wales work.

Structure, governance and management

The organisation is a company limited by guarantee and was incorporated on 22 January 2009. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the company and is governed by its Articles of Association, In the event of it being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10. The Trustees plan to review Mosac's governance document in 2020.

Trustees’ Report

Board of Trustees

Mosac is governed by a Board of Trustees, Details of those serving on the Board during the year and those serving currently are shown on page 2. The Board of Trustees meets around eight times a year, Mosac actively encourages applications from people interested in becoming trustees through the charity's website and Charity Job's free on-line advertising for volunteers. Potential candidates are first interviewed by the Chair and one other trustee, If successful, they are invited to observe a Board meeting and meet existing trustees. Once appointed, all new Trustees receive an induction/ introduction to Mosac.

The Board of Trustees delegates responsibility to the senior management team, through the Chief Executive,to execute the day-to-day operations of Mosac in accordance with the policies, procedures and budgets approved by the Board of Trustees.

Appointment of Directors

The directors may appoint a person who is willing to serve as a director. All directors indicate their willingness to continue on the Board annually at an Extraordinary General Meeting, All directors give of their time voluntarily.

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the objectives and activities and in the planning of future activities, it is the judgement of the Trustees that activities in pursuit of the above objectives fully meet the public benefit test, which they have kept in mind in planning programmes for the charity. In delivering services and in the appointment of staff, volunteers and trustees the charity operates a strict policy of no discrimination or any grounds.

Reserve Policy

During the two years of the Covid crisis, we were able to increase our reserves as a result of additional covid funding and prudent spending and successful fundraising. This additional level of reserves enabled us to maintain our full capacity throughout 22-23 despite the drop in income. We made the difficult decision to reduce our staff capacity going into 23-24. We are now in a position where we are looking to build back our reserves over the next 2-3 years.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of We Stand with Families Ltd (‘the

Company’)

| report to the charity trustees (who are also Directors for the purpose of company law) on my examination of the accounts of the We Stand with Familles Ltd (‘the charitable company’) for the year ended'34 March 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes 3 to 20.

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that | might state to the charity’s trustees those matters | am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, | do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions | have formed. Responsibilities and basis of report As the charity’s trustees of We Stand with Families Ltd 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 We Stand with Families Ltd are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, | report in respect of my.examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination | have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)}(b) of the 2011 Act. An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently | express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since We Stand with Families Ltd 's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must bea member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. | confirm that | am qualified to undertake the examination because | am a member of ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies.

| have completed my examination. | 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 We Stand with Families Ltd as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. 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).

These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 27 January 2024.

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Second edition October 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the periods in which the estimate is revised where revisions affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revisions affects both current and future perlods.

Income and endowments

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.

Donations and legacies

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an 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.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Raising funds

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

Charitable activities

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Grant expenditure

Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives. Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the recipient of the grant has provided the specific service or output.

Grants payable without performance conditions are recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and communicated to the recipient, and there are no conditions to be met relating to the grant which remain in the control of the charity.

Grant provisions

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable,

Support costs

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore It meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes, Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £500.00 or more are initially recorded at cost.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Office equipment

Depreciation method and rate 25% straight line

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less 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

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 does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method,

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

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.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

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 to pay all employees the benefits 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.
