MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH, 2023
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
a) Governing Document
The organisation is a charitable Company, limited by guarantee and not having a share capital, incorporated on 15 February, 2011 and registered as a Charity on 27 January, 2012. The Company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable Company and is governed under its Articles of Association, as amended by written resolution passed on 3 December, 2011 and registered with Companies House on 24 January, 2012. In the event of the Company being wound up, the Trustees of the Charity are liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the Charity. At 31 March, 2023 there were six Trustees of the Charity.
b) Recruitment and Appointment of New Trustees
As set out in the Articles of Association, the Management Committee members are elected on an annual basis and shall consist of not less than three, unless otherwise determined by ordinary resolution, and not subject to any maximum number of members. Any member appointed by resolution by the other directors must retire at the next AGM. One third of members stand down from office at the Annual General Meeting, but are eligible for re-election for the forthcoming year. The members to retire by rotation shall be those who have been longest in their office since their last appointment.
The Trustees are elected to bring a wide range of skills to the Management Committee. Members of the Management Committee, who are directors for the purpose of Company Law and trustees for the purpose of Charity Law, who served during the year are set out below:
Mr A J Kennedy Ms L Starkey Mr Graham Thomas Mr James Hooker Karen Anne Donnelly Mrs Nicola Anne Staveley Mr John Robert Arthur Dear
c) Trustee Induction and Training
Most Trustees are already familiar with the practical work of the Charity having been encouraged to visit relevant projects and meet informally with other Trustees. Additionally new trustees have been encouraged to familiarise themselves with the Charity and the context within which it operates and given relevant national policies and code of conduct for youth work. Trustees are provided with:

d) How Decisions are taken
Y Services for young people has a team of Trustees who meet bi monthly and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the Charity. During the year the Committee had members from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the Charity.
Staff recruitment is the responsibility of the Management Committee. A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of the services rest with the WIC (worker in charge) role along with the Finance Administrator. Budgetary expenditure limits are in place for the specified services based on the funding available. These are approved at the beginning of a project for the year. This lead team of professional practitioners are responsible for ensuring that the Charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met. Individual supervision of the staff team is undertaken by a professional youth and community worker thus ensuring that the team continue to develop their skills and working practices in line with good practice.
e) Relationship with related parties including subsidiaries
In so far as it is complimentary to the Charity’s objects, the Charity is guided by both local and national policy. At a national level youth work is steered by the Governments ‘Positive for youth ’strategy.
Local partnerships also have the responsibility for delivering "children and young people’s plan" (CYPP) and commissioning services at the local level and includes representatives from amongst others, the local authority, health and voluntary sector agencies.
f) Risk Management and Review
The Management Committee has conducted its own review of major risks to which the Charity is exposed and these are reviewed at least annually. Where appropriate, systems and procedures have been established to mitigate those risks. Significant external risks to funding have led to the development of a strategic plan which will allow for the diversification of funding and activities.
Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charitable Company. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the Charity.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The Charity’s objects as set out on incorporation were updated by Written Resolution on 3[rd] December, 2011 and are specifically restricted to the following:
-
a. To advance in life and help young people primarily between the ages of 11 and 19 in Hampshire and adjoining counties through -
-
i. the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their condition of life,
-
ii. providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society
as mature and responsible individuals.

b. To advance education for the public benefit in the professional practice of youth work
-
c. To develop the capacity and skills of socially and economically disadvantaged young people primarily between the ages of 11 and 19 in Hampshire and adjoining counties in such a way that they are able to identify, and help meet, their needs and to participate more fully in society.
We review our aims, objectives and activities each year. This review looks at what we have achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help.
PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT
The Charity is a public benefit entity.
We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance of public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular we consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives we have set.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The focus of our work for the year continued to be the development of youth work within the South of Hampshire.
The strategies used to meet these objectives included
-
Recruiting trained and experienced youth and community workers
-
Working in partnership with communities and partners thus increasing capacity and opportunity for young people
-
Working in partnership with other agencies to raise the profile of the organisation and contribute to the local and county council agreed "Children and Young Peoples plan" priorities.
The Charity has progressed in obtaining funding from a number of sources to deliver focused youth work opportunities. This has included a special needs youth club, two rural youth club provisions in partnership with community organisations and detached provision funded by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner.
The Charity’s successful partnership work with other youth work charities and local authorities continues to provide funding and delivery in many areas. The many commissioned projects are given in note 17 to the accounts and include these successes:

Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
(Company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)
Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH, 2023
1. Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the charitable Company, which is a public entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with:
-
i. the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) effective 1 January, 2015’;
-
ii. Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Northern Ireland’;
-
iii. the Charities Act 2011;
-
iv. the Companies Act 2006; and
-
v. the historic cost basis of accounting.
There are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue.
Financial reporting standard 102 – reduced disclosure exemption
The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Northern Ireland’ s1.12 (b) not to produce a Statement of Cash Flow as required by Section 7.
The principal policies of the Charity are set out as follows.
b) Financial Statements
These financial statements for the Charity include a separate Statement of Financial Activities and income and expenditure account.
c) Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the Charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be reliably measured.
Voluntary income including donations, legacies and grants which provide core funding or are of a general nature is only deferred when the donor specifies the grant or donation must be used in a future accounting period, or the donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the Charity has unconditional entitlement.
Income from charitable activities including income received under contract or where entitlement to grant funding is subject to specific performance conditions is recognised when the conditions are met.
d) Expenditure
Liabilities are r�ecognised 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 of the amount and that the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured.
Page 13 of 24
Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
(Company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a consistent and equitable basis.
Charitable activities includes the costs of all directly attributable expenditure include and support costs. Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity.
e) Asset Policies
Tangible fixed assets are r�ecognised� when costing £500 or more and are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to write off the cost of the asset on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life. There are currently no fixed assets.
The income and property of the Charity is applied solely towards the promotion of its objects as set forth in its Memorandum of Association.
f) Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
g) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
h) Financial instruments
The Charity only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors and loans from banks and other third parties.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade payables or receivables, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However if the arrangements of a shortterm instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate or in case of an out-right short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially, at the present value of the future cash flow discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost.
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is �recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Page 14 of 24
Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
(Company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset’s carrying amount and best estimate, which is an approximation of the amount that the Company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the balance sheet date.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Balance Sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the �recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
i) Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
j) Government grants
Government grants that are performance related are accounted under the performance model as permitted by FRS 102 and by the SORP. The use of the accrual method option is not permitted under the SORP. The income is recognised when the performance conditions are met. If the grant relates to a specific time period then the income is deferred until the start of that time period when it is then recognised in full, unless there are other performance conditions. The deferred element of grants is included in creditors as deferred income.
k) Provision for liabilities
Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Charity a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year that the Charity becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Balance Sheet date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.
When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Balance Sheet.
l) Funds Structure Policy
Restricted income funds are those which the Trustees are obliged to spend on a particular purpose as set out either by the donor or in any appeal document. Unrestricted income funds are available for use at the discretion of the Management Committee in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity.
The Trustees, at their discretion, may from time to time earmark funds from the General Reserves to be used for a specific project. These funds are referred to as Designated funds.
Page 15 of 24
Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
(Company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)
Specific activities often generate income by way of “subs” from the participants to contribute towards the activity or for refreshments, or may receive general donations. This income is not netted off and is shown as income within its respective category. This income is also treated as unrestricted funds. However if generated through restricted funded activities, the income is only transferred to unrestricted income if there is a cumulative surplus of funds on the activity. Trustees may at their discretion treat these transferred funds as designated funds for the respective restricted activity.
Any cumulative deficit on a restricted fund will be met by a transfer from General Reserves. Any surplus on a restricted fund, will, where permitted, only be transferred back to General reserves on the cessation of the project and if there are no outstanding assets or liabilities other than cash; or to reimburse for any previous deficits that were met by a transfer from the General reserves.
m) Other Policies
Pension
The Charity operates a pension scheme for staff. Under the workplace pension scheme the Charity opted to use NEST as its pension provider and commenced contributions from 1[st] February, 2017.
Irrecoverable VAT
The Charity is not registered for VAT and thus any VAT incurred is wholly irrecoverable and is charged to the specified activity for which it was incurred.
Going-concern
The restricted funded projects are fully provided for including sufficient administrative resources. The Trustees are aware that there are many financial challenges ahead but have approved a break-even budget for the year. They have also examined the following financial year and consider the finances to be sustainable. They have therefore prepared these accounts on a going-concern basis. The Trustees have contingency plans in place if additional income planned is not achieved.
2. Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The Charity makes certain estimates and assumptions regarding the future. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. There were no estimates or assumptions made that would have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
3. Income
Income have been analysed by their source in the table on the following page:

4. Expenditure
The delivery of our charitable activities necessitates that we have experienced youth workers. Both the training the Charity gives to them and the dedication and professionalism of these staff make them valuable assets to the Charity in that their services are sought by other community lead initiatives. These services are provided both as part of our charitable activities and also as paid for services. This latter income received provides a valuable source of funds for the furtherance of our charitable objectives. The costs associated with these activities include staff costs, other direct costs and its full share of support costs.

5. Allocation of Support Costs
The Charity monitors its spend by activity (sometimes referred to as projects). A project code is used for all restricted funded activities as well as the more significant unrestricted funded projects. The costs of any activity include any direct costs plus any overhead costs directly associated with that activity. Overheads that are not directly associated with an activity, referred

Y SERVICES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
(Company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital)
Financial assets measured at fair value through the Statement of Financial Activities comprise trade debtors. This excludes any debtors for grants or donations that are not of a contractual nature.
Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost comprise cash and cash equivalents. Although for the purposes of the Balance Sheet and fund accounting the overdrawn bank balances on any restricted funds are separated, here they are netted off and not treated as a financial liability as the overdrawn bank balance would be met by cash balances from unrestricted balances.

13. Deferred Income
Income is deferred when there is a contractual entitlement to the funds but there is an obligation to spend the money in a future period or finance expenditure in a future period. This may occur when there are performance conditions or the donor may specify the time period over which the expenditure of resources on a service can take place or when a multi period grant is approved and is to be paid on the basis of agreed annual budgets. Where this is in the form of a non-government grant the income is recognised on a “completion method” and where a government grant is recognised on a “performance method.”
Government Grants
Government grants, subject to performance conditions may be deferred in this way (the “performance method”). Grants for projects which are not performance related would be recognised on a systematic basis over the period in relation to the costs for which the grant is intended to compensate (the “accruals method”). However, the use of the “accruals method” for government grants, although permitted by FRS 102, is not permitted by the Charities SORP. Therefore government grants, not subject to performance conditions are recognised when there is a contractual entitlement to the funds whereas other government grants are recognised on entitlement.
