## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

The charity's objects are specifically restricted, to advance education and relieve those in need by reason of youth, age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage for the public benefit, and in particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing by raising funds or providing resources and facilities to the Lighthouse School, developing out of school activities and offering guidance and support to parents of children with autistic spectrum disorder and the wider autism community. 

## **The charity's main activities** 

Our aim is to support young adults, aged 16-25, who are autistic, have a Learning Difficulty or other support need, to develop the social and employability skills they need to secure paid employment or meaningful volunteering. 

Pre-covid statistics revealed that just 6% of young adults with a learning disability and 16% of those with autism are in employment.  These figures will have worsened due to the global pandemic, particularly in areas such as hospitality and retail, two areas where people with learning disabilities have previously been successful in finding jobs. 

We know that many more young people want to be in work but lack access to specialist support to help overcome the barriers they may face in seeking paid work. Our activities are designed to help address these and other issues through a series of tailor-made programmes that range from one-off support preparing for a job interview, through to a full 10-month internship. 

We use a range of teaching and learning methods with a focus on “experiential learning” and learning by doing as we find that this approach helps our students develop the skills and self-confidence they need to succeed. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance. 

Our charitable objective is to enhance the employability prospects (and to relieve those in need) by providing resources, employment opportunities and facilities to young people with autistic condition and learning difficulties in the wider community. 

We have detailed below what we have done to carry out these purposes for the public benefit by working with young people with additional needs, their families & carers and local employers. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Lighthouse Futures Trust has been a Specialist Post 16 Institution since 2018. We have seen our numbers grow from 3 in September 2018 to 27 in September 2021 (and 53 in September 2022). 

2021-22 was an exciting year for us as we were able to re-launch our core activities, many of which had been curtailed due to the pandemic, as well as introducing a range of new and innovative programmes. 

- l **World of Work:** a new initiative for 2020-21 aimed at younger students, from local specialist schools, who were able to experience an employability programme for 1 day a week.   We welcomed over 30 students from four different schools during the year. 

- l **PAES:** stands for Practical Assessment Exploration System.  The programme was developed in the USA and is being piloted by us in the UK. This focuses on helping students learn 100+ different practical skills in a range of sectors such as Consumer, Retail, Business & Marketing. 

- l **Pre-internship:** another innovation for 2021, designed for students aged 16-18 or who are not ready for the world of work.  We supported 7 students on a 10-month programme focusing on employment and liveability.

## Lighthouse Futures Trust 

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 August 2022 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

- l **Supported Internship:** a 10-month programme which typically involves 3 days a week on a work placement and up to 2 days studying English, Maths and Employability.  This year we had 20 interns who worked on site with our longer-term partners such as the John Lewis Partnership and Johnson and Johnson as well as new employers including HMRC and a new partnership with NHS Leeds and Project Search. 

- l **Branching Out:** a practical programme providing work experience in gardening and grounds maintenance. This year we were able to expand our programme with Leeds City Council by working in Roundhay Park as well as at Lotherton Hall.  Four interns took part in the programme for 3 days a week and we also welcomed a team of 8 students from Lighthouse School for one day a week. 

- l **Talent Recruitment:** our specialist service that provides tailor-made support to adults who need support to access paid work who are not on one of our formal programmes has also been busy and has achieved some great results. 

We continue to achieve excellent results which we attribute to our talented staff and committed employers and to the amazing students who we are privileged to support.   This year 16 of our Supported Interns graduated from the programme with 12 moving into paid employment and 1 moving onto a College Course. These results mean we have supported 81% of our graduating interns into paid employment/further education which is an outstanding result.   And we continue to work with the remaining 3 interns to help them secure a positive outcome. 

We have been active, in Leeds, with the Leeds Learning Disability Employment Task Group which is a crosssector collaborative partnership designed to improve outcomes for jobseekers with learning disabilities.  The employer sub-group is chaired by our CEO and was launched, in June 2022, with over 100 people from 80+ different employers in attendance. The group now meets quarterly and is called the Leeds Inclusive Employers Network (LIEN). 

We continue to support the development of the National Send Employment Forum (NSEF) that our CEO founded in 2019. This group meets virtually, every two months, and consists of 50+ different providers who share ideas and experience on a regular basis. 

We have also been one of the lead partners in a citywide project called Healthier Working Futures, funded by the UK government through the UK Community Renewal Fund.  This involved us working with the Leeds Health & Care Academy, third sector partners and a range of other health and social care initiatives to enable more young people to secure paid employment within the wider health and care sector.  The initiative was a great success, and we were able to exceed all our targets. 

## **Fundraising** 

Our core funding comes from the Education & Skills Funding Agency and the local Councils in Leeds, Bradford and North Yorkshire and underpins the work we do with our interns. 

Thanks to our charitable status, we can access other funding to enable us to run an enhanced programme which, in 2021-22 included: 

- l **Be Your Own Boss** programme, run by the Realistic Business Consortium and funded by Children in Need and the Youth Futures Foundation which enabled students to learn how to set up and run your own business.  This resulted in a business plan being prepared for a social gardening business, and the launch of a new range of candles under the Blossom & Light range. 

- l An anonymous private donor funded the expansion of our **Wellbeing and Resilience** programme for both students and staff.  This has made a significant difference to our students who were able to develop invaluable soft skills including: self-confidence; team working; using initiative; and effective communications. 

Thanks to all our funders: Co-op Local Community Fund; Leeds Community Foundation; Screwfix Foundation; the Social Enterprise Support Fund; Bam Nuttall; and Leeds City Council.

## **Plans for 2022-23** 

We continue to experience considerable growth and are preparing to welcome 24 pre-interns and 29 Supported Interns in September 2022, an increase from 7 and 20 respectively in 2021. Our plans for the year include: 

- l Expand the work we do in our newly refurbished PAES lab by introducing more modules including construction, processing and IT. 

- l Increase staff numbers to c. 30 employees, to support the growth in our student numbers. 

- l Secure a longer-term physical base for the College. 

- l Introduce a new Counselling and Wellbeing service for students and staff. 

- l Pilot our new pre-internship programme. 

- l Continue to work with current employer partners (NHS Leeds, Johnson & Johnson, the John Lewis Partnership and HMRC) as well as launching internships with Michael Page and NHS Shared Business Services. 

- l Continue to engage with organisations across the city to support them to become more inclusive and diverse employers. 

- l Expand our board of trustees. 

We are very proud of our tremendous achievements in 2021-22.  We simply couldn’t do this without an extremely talented and dedicated team of staff and volunteers who, every day, work tirelessly to help deliver our objectives and put the interns at the very heart of what we do. They are supported by a very engaged board of trustees, whose oversight and support is vital.   We are very fortunate to work with a team of inclusive employers who are flexible and understanding and, so often, go out of their way to support their interns. The last word goes to our interns who, every day, make us very proud to be associated with Lighthouse Futures Trust with their resilience, positive attitude and incredible achievements. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the year was £59,319, including net income of £78,462 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £19,143 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £227,353. 

The trustees have determined that an appropriate level of unrestricted reserves is to be held by the charity to cover its commitments, enable the smooth running of the charity and allow for an orderly winding up should the charity need to close. The policy is that the reserves should be at least 3 month's running costs and not more than 6 month's running costs. This would equate to between £275k and £550k based on forecast expenditure of £1.1m. The forecast expenditure includes significant expansion which necessarily comes before any increase in reserves. The trustees have undertaken a review of the level of reserves and are satisfied that the charity is solvent and given the nature of the forecast expenditure the charity could be wound up in an orderly manner incurring less than the level of reserves at the year-end.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 August 2022 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

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 accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

Approved by the board of trustees on 1 March 2023

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Lighthouse Futures Trust 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 August 2022, which are set out on pages 8 to 18. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a fellow of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a fellow of ACIE which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
