The Trustees consider the charities activities, as set out in this report, are in compliance with their duty to ensure the public benefit. The positive impact of the Charity's activities on the lives of young people by improving their mental health enables young people to make informed decisions, and through developing life skills, not only benefits them but also benefits the wider community.

## **SORTED COUNSELLING SERVICES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

As the newly appointed Chair of Sorted Counselling, firstly I express my thanks to Tracy Palmer, who stood down as chair during  the last  financial year and for the support of my fellow Trustee’s in nominating and supporting me in my first year as Chair of Sorted Trustee. 

Tracy has brought a breadth and depth of knowledge and I am very pleased that she has remained as a Trustee. 

As I look back on last year’s accounts, I have reflected that the issues and challenges that young people face and in turn the demands that this makes on our services. 

Demand on our services remains a constant and our pool of counsellors available to support Children and Young People (CYP) ebbs and flows. 

However, with a great team effort from our support staff, cohort of counsellors, volunteers and student trainees they have risen to these challenges to meet the needs of the CYP who require our support in what can be difficult circumstances for them. 

The Trustee’s thank each and every one for the time and effort that they make to make Sorted the success that it is. 

Andy Perry continues to manage Sorted and he has continued to support our staff whilst being sensitive to the needs of the CYP and their families who require our services. 

I am proud that we have provided 1823 hrs of counselling to195 clients in the past year, with Ann Day and Stephanie Davies, our Clinical Assessor, supporting the service. 

Other than the change of Chair there have been no changes in the Trustees. As Chair I wish to thank my fellow Trustees for their ongoing support and commitment towards Sorted. 

The well documented pressures on CYP Mental Health services have brought both challenges and opportunities, we continue to work with local agencies, both statutory and Third sector to ensure we are offering the most appropriate services to our CYP. 

The Trustees continue with their regular cycle of meetings to ensure that we meet our obligations as set by the Charity Commission. 

My final thanks go every counsellor, volunteer, student, staff member and of course to my fellow Trustees, Tracy, Joy (whom we welcome back), and Caron. 

We hope to increase the counselling team and support more young people in the future.

## **Financial Review and Reserves Policy** 

The charity ended the year with a surplus of £218,504 (2022: £182,851). At 31 March 2023 we held cash at bank of £224,378 (2022: £186,793).  The charity had £35,467 of restricted funds (2022: £6,607) and unrestricted funds of £184,378 (2022: £136,244) of which £40,000 are designated. The financial position continues to be carefully monitored and the cash position considered. 

The level of reserves relates to the organisation’s level of both current and projected activity. 

Accordingly, the charity’s Trustees are seeking to maintain sufficient reserves to continue operations in spite of challenges that may occur from any change in circumstances and to allow for an orderly reduction in activities or cessation of operations should this prove necessary. 

The Trustees have determined a minimum of reserves as three months operating costs plus any longterm contractual liabilities that may be outstanding. The Trustees review this policy regularly and the policy itself annually. This year’s unrestricted funds at 31 March 2023 total £184,378 and amounts to approximately 18 months budgeted expenditure. 

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis which the Trustees believe is appropriate. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees keep the charity’s activities under review, particularly with regard to any major risks that may arise from time to time.   The major risks that are identified by this process have been mitigated to an acceptable level by internal control systems and other factors as appropriate. 

Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf on /     /         by:

## **Director report April 2022- March 2023** 

The positive mental health and wellbeing of our children and young people continues to hold prominence in society and our service remains totally relevant in today’s world. 

Anecdotally, we are becoming increasingly aware of more financial support being offered to schools to deal with the difficulties being faced by their children and as such recruitment and retention of our counsellors has been a concern as more counselling opportunities have arisen within the education sector. 

We set ourselves an objective in early 2022 to always have 20 counsellors available to our service, however, this has been difficult to fulfil for the reason mentioned above and at the time of this report we have a mix of 15 paid and volunteer counsellors. 

To deal with our long waiting list, we have in conjunction with financial support BLMK started to undertake group therapy for the CYP waiting to be seen. We’ve received positive feedback from both the clients and their parents on the success of the group therapy and in most cases the client has wanted to continue to full counselling which we’ve considered to be a positive result of their experience with the group therapy as the CYP have felt comfortable with the group work environment such that they want to move forward to the 1 to 1 counselling. 

Our Trustee board has remained unchanged in terms of names and numbers; however, William Randell has taken up Chairpersonship from Tracy Palmer. I would like to thank all our trustees for their continued support and counsel, they provide valuable input whenever we meet. 

The service will start to see change during 2023 as our Clinical Manager and Finance Manager move towards permanent retirement in 2024. We have already commenced the process of seeking replacements. 

During the year to 31[st] March 2023 the service offered 1823 hours of counselling to our children and young persons. 195 clients were seen during that period. Our Fortis project that deals with children and young persons witnessing or suffering domestic abuse offered 449 hours and saw 37 clients. These figures are included within the service’s overall figures. 

We remain committed to providing relevant training for our counsellors and in the year to March 2023 we ran three training sessions that covered a taster session in Play therapy, Gender identity training and safeguarding training.

## **Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of Sorted Counselling Services** 

I report on the accounts of the company which are set out on pages following this report. 

Respective responsibilities of trustee and examiner 

The trustees 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 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- 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 

- 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 matter has come to my attention: 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting 

requirements of the Charities Act 

have not been met; or 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
