The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and the 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; FRS 102) issued in October 2019. ## **Structure Governance & Management** Sheffield Parent Carer Forum (Company number 07226540) was incorporated on 17 April 2010 and its Articles of Association govern it. Its legal status is that of a company limited by guarantee. It was registered as a charity on 15 February 2012 (Charity number 1145913). Since the Sheffield Parent Carer Forum is a company limited by guarantee, it does not have any paid-up share capital. Each company member has, however, guaranteed an amount not exceeding £1. Overall management of the company is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Articles of Association. Day-to-day project activity is carried out by paid staff and volunteers. trustees are elected at the Annual General Meeting and the trustees may co-opt onto the committee individuals, in an advisory and non-voting capacity, who they feel will help to fulfil the aims of the charity. ## **Method used to recruit and appoint new charity trustees** We aim to recruit trustees as a representation of a cross-section of Sheffield’s parent carer community. Vacancies are advertised in the newsletter, on our website and on social media. We follow a formal recruitment process as set out in our Volunteer Recruitment Policy and Procedure. Successful applicants are usually co-opted onto the Management Committee before they are elected at the next AGM. ## **Charitable objects** To relieve the needs of children and young people, including their parents, carers and families, who have disabilities and/or special educational needs in the Sheffield area, in order to improve their quality of life, promote their inclusion in their local communities and to help and support them to reach their full potential. ## **Accountability** The Forum has over 3,000 members, to whom we are accountable at the AGM. We are also accountable to our donors and funders. The trustees shall meet at least twice a year, but have met monthly, except over the summer. They are responsible for managing the business of the organisation, safeguarding its assets, and managing the funds. Decisions are made by the Trustees, with advice from staff and any of the relevant SubCommittees (currently Governance Finance and Staffing, Fundraising, and Pay Review). ## **Risk assessment** The trustees have discussed, and reviewed on a regular basis, all of the major risks to which the Forum is exposed and have established systems to mitigate the risks. By maintaining the Forum’s reserves in accordance with the levels set out in the Policy on Reserves below, the Forum will have sufficient resources to deal with adverse situations. 2 ## **Sheffield Parent Carer Forum** ## **Trustees' annual report - continued For the year ended 31 March 2024** ## **Objectives and activities of the charity** The Forum was established in 2008 and is now the largest parent-led network of families with children and young people with a range of disabilities and special educational needs in Sheffield. Our main aim is to ensure the needs of our children are met. Our vision is for Sheffield to be a place where our children with disabilities and special educational needs, and our families: - have a better quality of life - are fully included in, and accepted by, our communities - receive services, help and support based on their individual needs to reach their full potential. We believe that as parents we know our children best. We want to be informed and consulted, and for decisions to be co-produced with families. Our mission is to bring together families with children with disabilities and special educational needs throughout Sheffield: - to support each other - to exchange and provide information and signpost to sources of help and advice - to gather the views of parent carers to influence and transform services. We will do this by: - reaching out and making the Forum as accessible and welcoming to families as possible - providing information about support and services for families - offering support and activities in response to parents’ priorities - working in co-production with partners to influence and transform services, using information gathered across the city and representing views across disabilities, postcodes and background - developing the Forum as an effective, independent, parent-led organisation. ## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for public benefit** The main objects of the charity, as set out in its governing document, are to relieve the needs of children and young people, including their parents, carers and families, who have disabilities and/or special educational needs in the Sheffield area, in order to improve their quality of life, promote their inclusion in their local communities and to help and support them to reach their full potential. The main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects are: ## **1. Providing an information and signposting service to services and resources for parent carers** We provided information about services, financial support, events, consultations, policy changes and other relevant issues through: - two issues of our newsletter - our website, Facebook, Twitter, email and telephone - information and training sessions for parents on a variety of topics - an information day about Anxiety, Sensory Challenges and Behaviour Access to timely and relevant information enables families to access the services and support they need to gain a better quality of life, become more included and integrated into society and more active and informed citizens. 3 ## **Sheffield Parent Carer Forum** ## **Trustees' annual report - continued For the year ended 31 March 2024** ## **Objectives and activities of the charity- continued)** ## **2. Providing peer support** Our Peer Support Service delivered 1:1 support, peer support groups, drop-ins and information sessions in community venues across the city. Through our small grants programme, we funded other organisations to run events for families with disabled children during the school holidays. We also continued to run our own family events and outreach activities. Through the Autism in Schools project, we ran monthly parent groups at 15 secondary schools in Sheffield. These opportunities for families to meet, support and learn from each other have reduced their isolation, increased their confidence and encouraged greater involvement in community activities. ## **3. Influencing and transforming services and attitudes** We did this by: - collecting feedback from parents and organising parent representation on various issues to statutory services - reviewing / co-producing information for parents in partnership with the local authority and health service - co-producing training to include the parent perspective for professionals who work with children and young people with SEND This has enhanced our pool of knowledge about the issues disabled children and their families face, which gives us evidence to support consultations with service providers, and influence policies which affect these children and families and the wider community. Training will help to increase professional and public knowledge and awareness of the barriers faced by disabled children and their families. In carrying out these activities, the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. ## **Summary of the main achievements** We gained a substantial increase in the number of parents we are in contact with, and through evaluation forms and informal feedback confirmed that we are responding to parents’ needs for information, support and influencing policy. Over the year, our volunteers donated around 630 hours to the organisation. There have been no complaints, health and safety difficulties or safeguarding issues. 4 ## **Sheffield Parent Carer Forum** ## **Trustees' annual report - continued For the year ended 31 March 2024** ## **Summary of the main activities – continued** |**_Aim and outcome_**|**_Achieved 2023/24_**| |---|---| |1**_Aim_**_:_To reach out and make SPCF

The main item of expenditure was staffing, followed by business expenses and event costs. These are all directed towards the core objectives referred to above. ## **Plans for future periods** Our three-year SLA with Sheffield City Council and NHS South Yorkshire ICB – Sheffield Place has been renewed and will run until March 2026. We have set up a Peer Support Service, which has an annual budget of £70,000 per year. The project was originally intended to run for three years, but will now receive recurrent funding. The Autism in Schools project has been extended until March 2025. The Neurodisability training project funded by Health Education England has been extended until December 2024. We have submitted our application for the annual £17,500 Parent Participation Grant from the Department for Education, for 2024/25. We are also planning to submit applications to other funders, to cover the cost of volunteer coordination and support, and events. We intend to continue all our current activities, including parent carer participation activities, peer support and signposting, parent meetings for the Autism in Schools project, Neurodisability training for professionals, family events like the family fun day and Christmas film, outreach activities, and information and training sessions for parents. 6 assets) as •131 M•nth 2024 were £3&63812023: £355861 tly ￿ 511thdy below the W of The tharlty Iruste•s (who are a150 the of the dwrityfortht ￿￿¥05*$ ofcomp*w lawl'¥e r￿p￿Ible fof prep•rln8 a Trustees. •nnu4 report *nd fln•xaal Statem￿ kn *ttordanct wlth appMc*ble law •nd ￿￿tal comp•nle f4lr Vlew of th• st•te of aff•lrs of th• c4Jmp•ny •NI the A¥oup •nd of tht In(x>mlr¥ reM￿rC& •nd arytlrn•the IIMnd•l pos11k￿ of th• tharltyand toen•bl•theffl toen5ure th•tthe fknar*J•l st•tem•nts comp Name: laura ¢￿1 Trustee ## **Independent Examiner’s report to the trustees of Sheffield Parent Carer Forum (“the Company”)** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity’s trustees of the 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’).

Trustee 6￿L￿PLE **Sheffield Parent Carer Forum** ## **Notes to the financial statements** ## **For the year ended 31 March 2024** ## **1 Accounting Policies** ## **(a) General** The Sheffield Parent Carer Forum is a charitable company in the United Kingdom limited by guarantee.

The financial statements have adopted Charities SORP (FRS102) Bulletin 1 and taken advantage of the exemption to the prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. Sheffield Parent Carer Forum meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and are rounded to the nearest £. ## **(b) Income** Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Investment income is included when receivable. ## **(c) Expenditure and creditors** Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. ## **(d) Fund accounting** Unrestricted funds are donations and other income receivable or generated for the objects of the organisation without further specified purpose and are available as general funds. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work. Designated funds are funds set aside at the discretion of the trustees for a specific project. ## **(e) Trade debtors** Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. ## **(f) Trade creditors** Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 11 **Sheffield Parent Carer Forum** ## **Notes to the financial statements - continued** ## **For the year ended 31 March 2024** ## **(g) Cash and cash equivalents** Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. ## **(h) Fixed assets** Tangible fixed assets are stated at costs less depreciation. The charity has a policy of not capitalising expenditure unless it exceeds £1000. ## **(i) Defined contribution pension scheme** The charity contributes to a defined contribution pension scheme for the benefit of the employees. The pension costs charged against net incoming resources are the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting period in accordance with FRS102. ## **(j) Taxation** As a charity, the organisation is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within the available tax exemptions to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects. No tax charges have arisen in the charity. ## **(K) Going concern** The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern. ## **2 Income from donations and grants** |Donations
