CHAIR'S STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
The chair presents her statement for the year.
Along with most charities, both locally and nationally, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continued lo have
an impact during the reporting period 1st July 2021 30th June 2022. Despite this, Jeremiah's Journey has
continued lo maintsin core services offering bereavement support and advice throughout. In addition, the Charity
provided emergency response support in the immediate aftermath of a local tragedy.
Our small, but extremely resourceful, charity responded immediately to the events that took place in August 2021
in Plymouth. Widely referred to as 'the Keyham Shootings" a young man shot and killed five people, including a
3-year-old girl and her father, and injured two others before taking his own life. The extensive impact on these
five extended families and the wider community was reported around the world. Jeremiah's Joumey was present
in the local Keyham community on the morning after the tragedy, joining with other agencies (both statutory and
volunlaryl lo provide an emergency response to the local community. Our support continued throughout this
porting period and into the current one, as the local community and wider city have tried lo come to terms with
the tragic events.
Although we did not have the contingency within our finances to cover our associated costs, we did not hesitate
lo provide the essential support needed for such high-profile and toumatic bereavements. To dale, we have
invested approximately 800 Iherapeulic hours into service users who have been directly impacted by this
extfftordinary tragedy. We were extremely grateful lo receive contributions lo our costs as a result of a significant
fundraising effort by the people of Plymouth and the grant of slatulory funding from Victim SupporL
Despite an extremely challenging start to the reporting period, Jeremiah's Journey was fortunate lo secure a
significant grant from the Big Lottery giving the Charity an element of financial security for the ensuing three
years. As a result of this successful application, the Board of Trustees made the decision to continue lo employ
the services of Competitive Solutions Ltd ICSLI for a peric￿ of a further 12 months, to research and prepare
further bids to mitigate the significant losses of recent years and place the charity in a more sustainable financial
position going forward. However, the current aim of the Board is lo provide training and support for our
fundraising team lo develop the skills required to prepare future funding applications.
A series of events and new campaigns were initiated in the first half of the reporting period. However,
momentum was lost going into the third quarter due to significant staff turnover. The charity suffered the loss of
both of its fundraisers, and its Operations Manager, within a few months. The Board of Trustees look the
opportunity lo review the staffing structure and make some changes to the role of the Opeffttions Manager. After
a successful recruitment drive the Charity appointed 2 new fulktime fundraisers in January 2022. In March 2022,
a highly-experienced Director of Operations was appointed to line-manage all employees and oversee every
aspect of the Charity s operations.
As we reached the end of the reporting period on 30th June 2022, the future of Jeremiah's Journey was looking
increasingly secure. Operationally we had streamlined our processes and reviewed our contracts with suppliers,
sulting in a sk annual saving. In addition, the introduction of enhancements such as a new online payroll and
people management system has contributed to more efficient operations. We reviewed our 'local' fundraising
strategy and identified where the opportunities were for us to increase our Returns on Investments IROII. We
launched our new website, significantly increased our use of social media and maintained a presence at
networking events to increase our profile and reach within the community. However, the Charity still ended the
porting period with limited reserves and it is a priority for the Board of Trustees to build on a positive start to the
next accounting year and prioritise a significant increase in our reserves.

CHAIR'S STATEMENT ICONTINUEDI
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
Quarterly board meetings continued to take place throughout the reporting period. In addition, Trustee Steering
Groups worked in smaller teams alongside the Director of Operations lo complete specific projects.
Lady Bianca Eliot continues as a Patron of Jeremiah's Journey and has significantly increased her profile within
the Charity, working closely wth the new Director of Operations and fundraising team lo identify opportunities for
income generation.
Despite the Many challenges, Jeremiah's Journey has consislenlly delivered on ils core objective to provide
bereavement support for children, young people, and their families.

Bereavement Support Details
The Jeremiah's Friends Group works with children, young people and their families who have eXperIen￿d
Iraumalic bereavement andlor who have experienced trauma which is gelling in the way of their grief. The
focus and conlenl of this group has changed to incorporate trauma focused therapeutic tools and the
group has been extended to run over 9 weeks. The group programme runs three limes a year during the
school term and ends with a family day out giving participants the opportunity to enjoy spending time
together and bringing families together in a more social context.
One to one supported continued to be offered for more complex cases.
Pre -bereavement support is offered to families on an individual basis. Families are also provided with
opportunities to socialise at events and on days out.
Full day groups offer bereavement support for children, young people and their families who are dealing
with the death of someone in their lives. It was established to meet the needs of those referrals that are
less complex or where a commitment to the 9-week programme is difficult.
Individual and family work is offered lo families to help prepare them for the start of the group prO￿sS or
lo families or children for whom the group may not be appropriate.
Our Advice Line has continued for individuals or agencies lo speak direcdy lo a member of the clinical
team for advice, support or lo make a referral. We aim lo respond lo any contact by phone or email within
24 hours Monday- Friday.
A triage system for referrals has been in place to help the team respond in a timely and appropriate way
according lo the individual needs of children, young people and their families.
EMDR groups have continued, offering extra help when there are high levels of trauma involved. The aim
of this group is to reduce parents, own trauma empowering them to feel more able to support their grieving
children.
The clinical team also offers support lo local schools. This can range from the routine development of a
school staff s confidence in managing bereavement among their pupils and staff to the crisis management
of sudden and traumatic deaths in the school community. In the latter cases, staff and pupils receive direct
counselling which is followed up with a number of planned subsequent visits.

c. Volunteers
The group programme relies on the support of volunteers. We continued lo recruit and relain, some very skilled
volunteers lo help us run the group programmes throughout the reporting period. The Charity is very involved in
the community and relies heavily on voluntary support. During this reporting period the clinical team was
enhanced by psychology students on placement from Plymouth University. Our co-founder and trustee, Dr
Jacqui Stedmon has been instrumental In the delivery of our family therapy clinics on a voluntary basis.
We have refreshed our relationship with some fundraising volunteers who have come back following the
pandemic, bul also, we have recruited new volunteers into the team lo help support our new events programme.
The Trustees are very much appreciative of all our volunteers who offer their lime and expertise lo support both
the clinical and fundraising efforts of the Charity.. The Board recognises that il would be hugely challenging lo
deliver on our core objectives without them.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
a. Overview
The Charity is entirely self-funded, rarely re￿Iving additional funds from slatulory agencies despite ils
contribution to the emotional well-being of children, young people and their families and Ils potential for the
prevention of more complex mental health needs in the future.
b. Reserves policy
At the end of the reporting period, the Charity had total reserves of £92,747 12021.. £114,011), with restricted
reserves of £1,63812021.' £2,577) and unreslricled free reserves (excluding fixed assets and designated funds)
lotalling £86,25312021'. £105,602). Reserves are needed to bridge the gap be￿een the spending and receipt of
income lo cover unplanned repairs and other expenditure. The Trustees considered that the Ideal level of
reserves as of 3010612022 would be £115,000. The actual level of free reserves In the current year is lower than
the target reserves for the year. In order to increase the level of free reserves, the Charity plans to continue lo
commission support to develop the charity fundraising team and strategy so that income is generated al an
appropriate level. Trustees consider that the ideal level of reserves for the reporting period ending 3010612023
would be £115,000.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022
c. Going Concorn
The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis. Since the COVID-19 pandemic there has been a
significant reduction in income from fundraising events and activities. Online fundoising has seen an increase in
income in comparison with previous years and now is comparable to previous face-t()-face fundraising aclivilies.
The Charity has maintained relab'onships with stakeholders during this time lo plan for future physical events.
The Charity has also been able to access grants to assist during this time. Post year end, grants tolalling £143k
have been received, with further grants under application. Additionally, several long term lup to 3 years) grants
have been awarded. Short-term strategic planning has continued, and management are continuing lo review
various restructuring options to ensure that the Charity is able lo deliver the service cost effectively. Management
have reviewed budgets and forecasts and are confident that the Charity will continue to trade. Based upon this,
the Trustees are confident the going concern basis is correct. It is conceivable that a significant downside
scenario could occur, and if this were the case this would indicate the existence of 8 material uncertainty that
would cast significant doubt over the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
d. Principal risks and uncertainties
The principal risks faced by the Charity are as follows-
Operab'onal Risk." Every effort is being made to secure the financial future of the charity, we continue to
explore potential future grant opportunities for core funding lo sit alongside TNL grant, however, without
match funding to cover our annual core running costs the charity will be at risk operationally.
Reputational Risk11 is important lo our reputation that the charity can manage demand from service users
as effectively as possible and keep waib'ng lists to a minimum. We plan lo review our service delivery
strategy lo ensure that we can increase our capacity without any significant impact on our costs.
Financial Risk." Whilst core funding has been received from the National Lottery for a period of 3 years, we
must continue to identify other match funding opportunities and grow our local fundraising income streams
in order lo cover as much a percentage of our core costs as possible. We intend to restructure within the
next financial year to reduce our staffing costs and we are constantly reviewing our supplier agreements to
make sure that we a￿ getting value for money and identifying savings where possible.
Strategic Risk". The skills mix within the trustee board is regularty reviewed and the onboarding of 3 new
Iruslees within this reporting period has enhanced the breadth of expertise leading the charity. The new
Iruslees bring significant experience fmm backgrounds in financial services, business, marketing, and
educational leadership and safeguarding at a senior level. These appointments have complimented the
existing expertise on the board where the charity already have expert representation from backgrounds in".
clinical, educational, legal services, project management, risk assessment and fundraising.
Compliance Risk". All reporting throughout this period was on time. Accounting continues to be monitored
lo ensure timely auditing and reporting to the charities commission. Policies continue lo be reviewed to
ensure they remain fil for purpose. All trustee's, staff and volunteers are subject to DBS checks, with
safeguarding training undertaken by all those directly involved with children, young people and their
families.
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises..
Full review of the day-to-day running of charity by the Director of Opeffttions.
Business strategy and plan for the next 3 years to be reviewed, written, and agreed by Board of Trustees.

charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use.

charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charilable trading.

fixed assets are measured al cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment
losses. All costs incurred lo bring a tsngible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be
included in the measurement of cost.

2.8 LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past
event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount
of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities a￿ recognised al the amount that the company anticipates it will pay lo setue the debt or
the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required lo settle the obligation. Where
the effect of the lime value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those
amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The
unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
2.9 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial
instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at tonsaction value and subsequently

the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.
2.11 FUND ACCOUNTING
General funds are unreslricled funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in
furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other
purposes.
Designated funds comprise unreslricled funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular
purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes lo the financial
ststemenls.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific reslriclions imposed by
donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of oising and
administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted
fund is set out in the notes lo the financial statements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGEMENT
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions".
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that effect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as al the balance sheet dale and
the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation
means that actual outcomes could differ from those eslimales. Whilst there is a level of assumption in
these judgements, the Trustees feel these are unlikely to have a significant affect on, or cause material
error to the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
