## Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society **Chairman’s & Executive Director’s Reports** for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
## **Chairman’s Report & Executive Director’s Report**
It has been a challenging year for the Care Society, but as true to form the resilience and character of The Care Society has helped them navigate through the year. The focus of the Board and Senior members of The Care Society is to recalibrate, focussing on our employees, finances and the services we provide to the people that need us.
While we feel disappointment that our small local charity was not successful in the tender process run by our local authority, we remain focussed on delivering the best services we can. This was compounded by the loss of Section 180 funding following Welsh Government redistribution of funding throughout Wales. The impact of these services is felt at Board and the Executive Team through the feedback from incredible colleagues that are as committed as previous years and continue to be as determined as ever. This year has been particularly difficult and our thanks to them all for their understanding and resilience.
Despite uncertainty, the Care Society once again has shown resilience and commitment. The Care Society has continued to show integrity and work with partner agencies Ceredigion County Council and Powys County Council, delivering services to meet identified need. This has been evidenced by The Care Society extending operations beyond the term of contract to assist the Local Authority and the most vulnerable people within our communities.
The raison d’etre of The Care Society is to positively improve the lives of our service users and throughout this period there has been a constant demand for our much-needed services against the backdrop of a cost of living crisis. This has involved developing existing services for example the Interim Offender Management project in Newtown, delivered in partnership with Dyfed Powys Police and Barcud Housing Association
There are some people we would like to thank with a special mention this year, Eleri Jenkins, Director of Housing and Support in Barcud retired in February, who provided a great deal of support and guidance for The Care Society. We welcome Sara Woodall to Barcud, who will work closely with The Care Society on the recalibration exercise. Thanks to the Board members who stepped down during the year, your support for the work of The Care Society and great insight to our meetings will be missed. Lastly, an extra special mention to our previous Chair Anthony Hearn, who over the past years has seen The Care Society grow from strength to strength and has been an invaluable support, we will all miss you at The Care Society. We would also like to thank the Board and colleagues of the wider Barcud Group for their continued support and dedication to The Care Society
As evidenced by the achievements and performance below, in this significant period of change The Care Society has remained a person-centred organisation and future planning is focussed on The Care Society remaining financially viable and relevant to the needs of our communities.
The focus now turns to the recalibration with the continued focus and determination that runs through The Care Society.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Principal funding sources**
The principal income generated by the Charity is currently through grant income, contract income from Ceredigion County Council and partner agencies, together with self-generated income from management fees, rents receivable and shop income.
## **Investment policy and objectives**
The Charity has no investment powers except to place any surplus income into deposit accounts. Having considered the options available, the Trustees have decided to ensure reserves are available to meet the working capital requirements of the Charity.
## **Reserves policy**
The Trustees have reviewed the requirement for reserves in view of continued reduction in public funding and other risks to the organisation.
- To enable the Charity to meet its contractual obligations, including possible redundancy payments, amounts due to creditors and commitments under leases in the event of loss or deferral of major funding streams.
- To enable the Charity to continue to provide a stable and quality service to those who need it whilst it seeks to find alternative sources of income.
- To cover large items of expenditure such as repairs to premises and equipment replacement necessary to ensure a safe and reasonable working environment for both clients and staff.
The Trustees have agreed to establish a level of reserves equal to six months’ running costs. Budgeted expenditure for 2024/25 is £1.49 million, therefore the target reserves are £745,000. The long-term strategy of the Charity is to build reserves through delivering planned operating surpluses. In the short term, the Charity has explored all possibilities to reduce expenditure, including activities that could be curtailed should circumstance require, and also the level of unrestricted funds committed to fixed assets held by the charity.
## Results:
The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net deficit from ordinary activities for the year of £22,208 (2024 surplus of £3,284), and reserves now stand at £1,186,286 (2024 £1,210,643). During the year there was property revaluations of £8,753 and net gain on sale of assets £2,677.
The Charity’s funds have all been applied in accordance with its objectives and the Charity’s assets are all being maintained in the furtherance of these objectives.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
With the continued uncertainty surrounding the current socio-economic climate, now more than ever The Care Society needs to plan ahead and deliver services flexibly. The Care Society has proved itself to be innovative and resilient in the face of significant challenges and continues to explore ways we can expand our operations to meet identified need. At the same time we are looking at consolidating the work we currently do in view of constant and increasing demand.
In relation to our staff, we will continue to listen to what they have to say and shall work towards implementing the recommendations arising from the January 2025 staff questionnaire responses.

Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society **Report of the Trustees** for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
## **Organisational Structure**
From April 2018, Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society became a subsidiary of Tai Ceredigion in a group structure. In November 2020, Tai Ceredigion merged with Mid Wales Housing, forming Barcud. The governance of the structure is bound by the intra-group agreement between the Barcud and Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society. The Charity is managed by the Trustees who meet quarterly. The day-to-day responsibility for the provision of services is delegated to the Executive Director, Guy Hamilton Evans, who reports to the Trustees at regular meetings.
## **Key management remuneration**
The Trustees review the pay and remuneration of all the Charity’s personnel on an annual basis. The Care Society’s remuneration policy principles are as follows:
**1.** To ensure that the aims and objectives of the Charity are being met.
**2.** To be able to attract and also retain staff who have the necessary skills and experience in their specific roles to ensure that the organisation is able to run efficiently.
**3.** The remuneration policy is fair and consistent across the organisation.
Any pay increases need to be appropriate for the type of role within the organisation and agreed by Trustees.
## **Risk management**
The Trustees have reviewed the major risks faced by the Charity and have ensured appropriate systems and procedures have been established to mitigate their impact. The Charity has invested significantly in both the training of staff and numerous quality assurance mechanisms, including:
- The QCS Welsh Social Care Management system and a comprehensive library of policies and procedures which are compliant with Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales standards;
- Internal Monitoring Processes, departmental budgets and Key Performance Indicators linked to organisational strategy; and
- Specific Accreditations including membership of – The National Association of Landlords, The Property Ombudsman Service, and Tenancy Deposit Services.
Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of robust Group Financial Regulations and established procedures for authorisation of all transactions.
The Care Society has developed a Risk Map identifying the changes in internal and external factors that may affect the likelihood of a significant risk impacting the organisation. The risk mapping process is fully embedded within business planning and operational arrangements and is complemented by a risk register. Each risk is assessed as to its ‘impact’ and ‘likelihood’ on a scale of 1 -5. The original risk is scored on the assumption that there are no current controls to manage it; this is a starting point to enable the identification of risks which have potentially high exposure levels for the business and is called an unmitigated risk.

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES**
The Trustees (who are also Directors of Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society for the purposes of Company Law) are responsible for preparing 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, of the incoming resources and application of resources. This includes the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are responsible and prudent; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to 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.
## In so far as the Trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware; and
- the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

## **Report of the Independent Auditors** to the Members of Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society (“the charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
## In our opinion, the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31st March 2025 of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Page **11**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees’ Report; or
- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
## **Responsibilities of Trustees**
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 10, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud**
We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In identifying and addressing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:
- We obtained an understanding of laws and regulations that affect the charity, focusing on those that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on its operations. Key laws and regulations that we identified included the Companies Act 2006, tax legislation, health and safety legislation, and employment legislation.
- We enquired of the trustees and reviewed correspondence and trustee meeting minutes for evidence of non-compliance with relevant laws and regulations. We also reviewed controls the trustees have in place, where necessary, to ensure compliance.
- We gained an understanding of the controls that the trustees have in place to prevent and detect fraud.
- We enquired of the trustees about any incidences of fraud that had taken place during the accounting period.
- The risk of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud was discussed within the audit team and tests were planned and performed to address these risks. We identified the potential for fraud in the following areas: laws related to the provision of social housing, recognising the nature of the charity’s activities and the regulated nature of the charity’s activities.
- We reviewed financial statements disclosures and tested to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations discussed above.
- We enquired of the trustees about actual and potential litigation and claims.
Page **12**
- We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that might indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
- In addressing the risk of fraud due to management override of internal controls we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates were indicative of a potential bias.
Due to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing fraud or noncompliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to detect all fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
## **Use of the audit report**
This report is made solely to the charity’s members as a body in accordance with Section 3 of Part 16 or the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’ trustees as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
## **Governance costs**
Governance costs are those incurred in connection with the administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

Grants have been received under S180 of the Housing Act 1996 or Section 126 of the Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1966 from the Welsh Government for specific projects. These grants are as follows:
S180 Bond Scheme – The Bond Scheme enables people on low incomes to move into their own private accommodation. Thus people, who are homeless or facing homelessness, are assisted into finding safe, affordable and sustainable rented accommodation facilitated through the provision of a bond guarantee.
S180 Accommodation Officer – The principal objective of the ‘Accommodation Officer Scheme’ is to alleviate homelessness in Ceredigion through meeting the increased demand for suitable and affordable private rented accommodation. To this end the scheme works with the Welsh Government, the Local Authority and regional private landlords to promote good practice, improve property standards and meet the shortfall from the existing private rented sector, registered social housing and statutory housing provision.

S180 Night Shelter – Rooflessness & Resettlement Initiative The overall aim of this project is to reduce homelessness and repeat homelessness in Ceredigion and rural mid-Wales through the provision of safe accommodation for ‘rough sleepers’ and homeless people. The project also aims to achieve positive resettlement outcomes and prevent social exclusion through engagement with service users and by providing support, access to the Accommodation Officer and Bond Schemes, client activities, housing advice, welfare, finance and benefits advice, partnership working and signposting to specialist agencies.
Innovation funding - In 2019/2020 Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society successfully secured Welsh Government Innovation Grant Funding to provide a psychologically–and-trauma informed accommodation and support service specifically for people up to the age of 25. With this grant income Cymdeithas Gofal The Care Society have established an innovative Housing First for Youth Project based in Aberystwyth from premises provided by Barcud. This project has been designed to address the needs of developing young adults by providing them with immediate access to housing that is safe, affordable and appropriate, with the necessary and age-appropriate support that focuses on health, well-being, life skills, engagement in education and employment, and social inclusion. The goal of this project is not simply to provide housing stability, but to support young people as youth and facilitate a healthy transition to adulthood.
Shop Mobility Scheme – To provide the effective delivery of the Shop Mobility project, including staff training, acquisition of suitable mobility equipment, safe storage of such equipment in an appropriate central location in Aberystwyth and delivery to where the equipment is needed. Use of the equipment should be charged on a fair and reasonable basis and effective promotion of the scheme is also required.
