TRUSTEE ANNUAL REPORT (including Director’s report)
For the year ended 31 March 2024
This commitment has helped us connect with even more members this year—we’re thrilled to welcome 72 new members to our Northbourne community!
In 2024, we saw some changes in our team. We bid farewell to Clive, who has moved on to an exciting new opportunity, and we welcomed Tilia. Our existing staff, Jennie and Elliott & Pauline, continue to bring enthusiasm and energy, keeping the Northbourne spirit strong. A special thankyou goes to Tasha, who generously volunteers her time every week to support our junior sessions— her commitment makes such a difference.
One of my personal highlights this year has been the Junior cooking sessions. Watching the children grow in skill and confidence with every recipe has been so rewarding. Seeing their growth and sense of accomplishment reminds us why we do what we do. As well as seeing some of our Seniors move onto some amazing opportunities such as further education and apprenticeships. Lots of success to be celebrated.
In 2025 Northbourne is celebrating its 25th year as a charity supporting development of children and young people so I am excited to lead the team and see what else we can achieve.
Some of our highlights over the year:
-
Number of attendances 4164
-
Number of individuals engaged 236
-
Number of young people engaged in DofE
-
Number of sessions delivered in 12 months 961
-
Number of young volunteers engaged 10
-
Number of adult volunteers engaged 3
-
Number of new young people signed up 72

Risk Management
The Board is responsible for the management of the risks to which the Charity is exposed. A risk register is produced which considers financial, governance and delivery risks.
For each risk, the register identifies:
-
Initial risk assessment in terms of impact and likelihood
-
Initial risk rating
-
Counter measures
-
Responsibility / ownership
-
Timescale
-
Amended risk assessment in terms of impact and likelihood
-
Amended risk rating
The Board reviews the risk register throughout the year. Through the counter measures put in place in the risk register and the regular reviews and updates, the Board is satisfied that the major risks identified have been adequately mitigated. It is recognised that this approach can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed.
Plans for future periods
We are keen to continue our user led ethos across the work which we deliver, we are committed to asking young people and community members what they wish to see in the coming year. Many have feedback to workers and have asked more issue-based learning around topics effecting choices made by young people, our community members are keen to explore future progressions in terms of employment or education.
-
Suggested Actions:
-
A co-designed calendar of issue-based activities created and shared with young people so they can choose which they engage in.
-
Increased promotion of the work we do, shouting about our success and achievements. We will continue with our monthly newsletters but also blog our work and share it via our website.
-
Continued funding strategy - as always remains a priority and we will work hard to ensure we are able to sustain delivery and continuing to raise our profile both within the community and within the sector.

TRUSTEE ANNUAL REPORT (including Director’s report)
For the year ended 31 March 2024
Statement of Trustee Responsibilities
The trustees, who are also directors for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company Law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
For the year ended 31 March 2024
I report on the financial statements of Northbourne Street Youth Initiative for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are set out on pages 8 to 18.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2022 ("the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
h examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
h to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
h to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
h accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
-
h the accounts do not accord with such records; or
-
h the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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
-
h the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
I 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.
