Chief Executive's Statement
For the year ended 31 March 2024
Hello and Welcome
Welcome to our Trustees report covering the period of April 1 st 2023- March 31st 2024.
The recent 12-month period has been one of the most significant in the organisation's history. In the autumn of
2023 we completed a merger with the Northumbria Coalition Against Crime (NCAC). This decision was not
taken lightly and a period of due diligence was undertaken to ensure that this was the right move both
strategically and operats'onally for both Boards of Trustees. The key question was could services and provision
for Young People be strengthen, improved, resourced and sustained effectively? Once complete we were
delighted to welcome six new staff from the Coalition in to NE Youth who have brought new skills, energy and
diversity to our existing team.
Further change has included the retsrement of our much loved and respecled Finance Manager Campbell Grant
and we thank him for all his efforts and wsh him well for the future. Lindsay Maudling also chose not lo ￿tUrn
after maternity leave following len incredible years and many significant achievements with young people.
Again, we wish her well. In addition to the new staff from NCAC we have also successfully appointed new team
members across our youth work and programmes team who have settled in really well.
At Board level there was a change in chair with Richard Turnbull replacing Martin Cave in this role and we were
also delighted to appointed Sheila Alderson and Anne Moyle but on the flip side Rachel Wilson stepped down.
Our Youth Work and Programmes offer continued to grow and strengthen and we Introduced not only the
Odysseys Mentorlng Programme {OMP) followiThJ the merger but also The Enrlchmént Programme in
collaboration with the National Citizen servi￿ and Thè Pèer Actlon Collectlve ￿lch builds on the incredlble
work of the previous programme.
Our Strategic and Regional Development Work continues via our own membership offer and the North East
Youth Alllance. This has included collaboration wtlh Culture and Creative Sector with the purpose of
developing relationships and learning from each other. Some collaborats've work with key funders and youth
sector partners in relation to join and key messaging has also been an important feature this year.
Next year's welcome will be writlen as we embark on the 90th Anniversary of NE Youth from its inception In
1935 as The Northumberland Association of Boys Clubs. A calendar of evenls will be released soon with the
aim of celebrating the history of our work, engaging young peopl8, and our members and securing new
investment.
Finally, I would like to say a huge thank you to all our amazing funders and supporters who continue to place
huge trust in us to make a positive difference wth young people.
I hope you find the repost an enjoyable and informative read and many thanks for your continued support.

Trustee Report
For the year ended 31 March 2024
At a local level Young People have been supported to develop junior campaigns and impactful social action
projects.
Key to this is the continued success of our annual Projects wth Pride Event thich recognises the achievements
of Young People across our membership network.
Our Youth Work and Programmes offer continues to strengthen and grow particularly wth the integration of the
Odysseys Mentoring Programme (OMP) which provides targeted and intensive one-two-one mentoring support
for Young People. Collaborative work with the NCS Trust and Duke of Edinburgh Awards have enabled us to
engage in the Education Enrichment Partnership Programme across County Durham and the continuation of
our PAC Programme has enabled to employ fi've Young People as peer researchers.

The most significant fealure of 2023124 was the merger of NE Youth V￿th Northumbria Coalition Against Crime.
The strategic and operational reasons for the merger are covered elsewhere.. in this section the financial plan
and the actual outcome are covered.
Income
The budget for NE Youth at Ihe start of the year was for income of £760k and expenditure of £852k, a net deficit
of £92k, funded using funds from previous years. The expected impact of the merger wth NCAC was for
income to increase by £106k and expenditure by £192k, meaning a change to the net deficit of £86k. NCAC
brought lo the merger both existing funds and commitment of future income. But a range of cost savings on
merger meant that when the merger was agreed the budget for the combined entity was for income of £950k
and expenditure of £1,048k', a net defi'cit of £98k- with, again. plans to use up funds from previous years.
During the 23124 financial year, the Charity has generated income of £950k and expenditure of £993k.
The trustees are pleased with this financial perf0nMan￿. given the complexities of both the merger and the
economic climate in which we have operated for the past 12 months.
Diversity of income remains healthy, with 210/0 coming from Charitable contracts, 510/0 from Charitable grants
and 160/0 from Fundraisi ng events, maintaining our financial resilience.

Trustee Report
For the year ended 31 March 2024
Unsurprisingly the operational cash flow over the year has been positive. This time lag between the receipt and
spending of funds illustrates the need to take a multi-year view of charity finance and reserves when assessing
for sustainability, value for money. efficiency and effectiveness.
It was planned that a significant proportion of the restricted funds at the start of the year would be expended -
and they were. But the restricted funds coming in during the year V￿re only partly expended and the total value
of restricted funds went up significantly over the year.
Investment income is a small part of income, but in a turbulent year it was good to see the reduction in the value
of investments is relatively small.
The robustness of NE Youth's financial systems will be enhanced by a move from QuickBooks desktop to Xero
from April 2023.
Reserves Policy
NE Youth has considered its reserves requirements for the forthc¢Jming year, and the Trustees have confimed
that appropriate levels of reserves should be held to cover unexpected disruption to planned income sources
(c.£50,000), and to cover the costs of winding up the charity in a worst-case scenario. These worsl-case costs
are estimated to be circa £250,000. In total, the Trustees consider the minimum level of reserves required
during the forthcoming financia year to be c.£300,000. At the end of the financial year, unrestricted reserves
were £520,790.
Current cash (£459k) is well in excess of typical monthly expenditure (c.£87k) indicating good Liquidity cover.
Future planning
In 2025 our organisation hils the incredible landmark of 90 years which will provide an opportunity lo Celebrate
the history and achievements and maximise opportunities to generate additional income to support our work,
Further updates wtll follow.
In the autumn of 2024 we will begin dialogue in relation to our next strategic plan covering April 2025- March
2028, The plan will reflect the emerging needs of Young People and the Communities we provide services and
also the ever changing political and economic landscape.
Our priority as ever will be to ensure thal we can sustain our current provision and explore new collaboralive
opportunities to increase the quality and reach of our offer for Young People.
