OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objects and Aims
As set out in the governing documents, the charity's objects are as follows:
The promotion of the social inclusion for the public benefit amongst young people who are socially excluded as they do not engage with educational services, by providing them with support and assistance to relieve the needs of those people, and to assist them to integrate back into mainstream education by:
-
Offering curriculum-based group activities
-
One-to-one mentoring and support
-
Building links with families, schools and local authorities
-
Enabling families, schools and community groups to support each other and develop strategic
-
measures towards reintegration into community life.
The aims of our charity are to connect vulnerable young people with a positive learning experience by working on patterns of thinking, behaviours, and emotions, to enhance learning, ultimately turning lives around. Our aims fully reflect the purposes that the charity was set up to further, in order to reach more young people and their family's year-upon-year.
Objectives, Strategies and Activities
Delivering our aims
We review our aims, objectives, and activities each year to reflect on the past 12 months’ achievements and outcomes, and plan appropriately for the year ahead. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits these have brought to the individuals and groups we exist to support. The review also allows us to ensure that we remain in keeping with our charity’s aims and

ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
objectives. The Trustees consider how the planned activities will benefit the individuals they are aimed for, that there are the appropriate safeguards in place, and that the financial stability of the charity is also considered.
The focus of our work
The aims of the charity are to enable children and young people who struggle with their mental health and educational needs to re-engage with a positive learning experience. This is achieved through the charities robust and high-quality model, delivered by trained and experienced staff, supporting young people through a range of services: intensive one-to-one interventions, preventative mental health projects (Make Me Smile, Kick Start, Transitional/Standard Summer Projects), and training and supervision for external professionals (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and External Supervision). The models of support are underpinned by unique, research-based, psychological approaches (such as CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed therapy).
The positive reputation One-Eighty has built, over the past decade, has been achieved by working with existing providers and external agencies such as: schools/academies, VS for CWCF (Virtual Schools for Children We Care For), social care teams, the police, and other like-minded charitable organisations. Through a variety of training courses, external supervision sessions, conferences, projects, boards, and network forums, the charity also continues to seek further opportunities for development and growth in order for more schools and professional services, across health and educations sectors in particular, to access our services.
During 2021/2022, One-Eighty has continued working with a larger mental health charity, focusing on joint-commissioned projects and offering External Supervision services to their staff, and other organsiations they collaborate with. This has enabled efficiencies, and wider-collaborative working across a range of charities in the county. Furthermore, this collaborative work has furthered OneEighty's reputation across both Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire, particularly by increasing the awareness of our service offers which has resulted in increased referrals through health and education sectors. In addition to this, is has introduced One-Eighty to strategic consultations led by the new Integrated Care Boards (ICB/ICS) whereby One-Eighty has been able to contribute to data gathering, horizon scanning, and communicate the needs of vulnerable young people.
As One-Eighty launched its 10[th] Anniversary Appeal, the fundraising team was heavily focused on increasing the knowledge and reputation, in addition to funding, through new and existing donors. This was primarily through a team-wide 7k fun run, and a formal anniversary fundraising dinner, hosted by our charity’s Patron. During this year, the Senior Leadership Team re-structured to offer a permanent Service Manager position, create a Director of Operations role in order to support the CEO and manage the finances in parallel with the strategy, in addition to promoting the Development Manager to Director of Fundraising & Development. This new structure has enabled the organisation to have the leadership infrastructure to manage the upcoming growth and strategic management of the income generation whilst maintaining safeguarding and delivery as a priority.
Public Benefit
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirement in the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit in exercising their powers and duties. They have referred to this guidance when reviewing the charity’s objects and aims and in planning its future activities and are satisfied that the charity’s activities comply with this guidance and are of public benefit.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Impact
Over the academic year 2021/22, One-Eighty positively affected the lives of over 1,600 school-aged young people and their families. Our work continues to transform the lives of children, young people and their families across Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Working intensively on a one-to-one basis, with young people with complex mental health and educational needs , and their families, we delivered 1,189 sessions . A 15% increase from 2020/2021.
The most common reason for a young person being referred to One-Eighty was emotional regulation challenges – this can include angry outbursts, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts, self-harm and other self-damaging behaviours. Without our support, these young people will continue to be absent from education, leading to pathways including permanent exclusion, criminality or acute mental health needs, potentially affecting their lives into adulthood.
We deliver one-to-one intervention s over eight weeks with 3-4 sessions a week, including support for parents/carers. Our work is psychology-focused, using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and Trauma-Informed Therapy as the foundation. We support each young person to develop more appropriate behaviours and coping strategies, build self-esteem and mental health resilience. Our goal is to help them to support and manage their own mental health and behaviours and re-engage with their learning. We equip them to make the most of their talents and boost their long-term outcomes. Our weekly sessions for parents/ carers to equip them with the skills to support their child or young person after our support has concluded . 94% of the young people we supported last year with this work, showed an improvement against planned targets.
Alongside this, our work focused on preventative mental health projects, equipping young people with the skills to support their mental health in the same way they would their physical health. Over 1,500 young people completed Make Me Smile sessions to help their understanding on mental health and how to support this in the same way they would their physical health. Across our impact measures, young people reported that they had significantly more understanding on what mental health is, what to do when they were worried, and who to talk to if they needed help with their worries.
48 young people took part in our Summer Project and Transitional Summer Project , with young person and parent/carer feedback highlighting that they were less worried about the new school year . Year 7, secondary school teachers reported how helpful the project had been - they were able to immediately understand and put in place strategies to help the young people to thrive in their new school.
We also piloted our preventative mental health project Kick Start – a project to support young people struggling to settle into the school day with calming sessions and a healthy breakfast. For the pilot phase, 24 young people took part and 80% reported they understood what helps them to feel calm and ready for learning after the project.
Our work also supports professionals working directly with young people – over 40 External Supervision and CBT+ training sessions were delivered helping to equip them with the skills to support young people’s mental health.
6
ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The average age of young people referred to our service was 12.5 years . 86% of young people were on roll at mainstream primary and secondary schools/colleges. 7% attended primary or secondary special educational establishments and 7% were not in education at the point of referral.
Alongside emotional regulation challenges, young people presented with attachment difficulties, behavioural needs, low attainment in relation to ability and a risk of truancy and poor school attendance . Within the family, bereavement and parental break-up still remain some of the main issues. Known mental health problems, criminality and substance misuse were also highly prevalent. In addition, debt, poverty and unemployment were high needs – possibly as a result of the rising fuel, gas and food costs as the cost of living crisis started to take hold.
Fundraising
Trusts and Foundations remains the charity’s primary fundraising activity. As we celebrated our 10[th] anniversary, we launched a community fundraising appeal with the Blenheim 7k and our 10[th] anniversary dinner as our main activities.
Staffing
One-Eighty has concentrated on expanding and growing its service offers across Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire, and as such has ensured that a focus on staff CPD opportunities has been a priority during this year. Staff are the charity’s most valuable asset, as a growing team and increased capacity enables more vulnerable young people to be supported through the service offers. Whilst the Senior Leadership Team have been determined to focus on growth – both in size and development – there has also been a need to ensure that the charity is operating as efficiently as possible. Members of the Senior Leadership Team and the Trustee Board have therefore been working on projects to reduce and adapt administrative tasks, and improve various processes, in addition to upskilling the intervention staff to add confidence and knowledge to deliver more sessions in the year. The staff size, and those who are on payroll this financial year, has increased from 2020/2021 to approximately 14 full-time equivalent.
During this financial year the Senior Leadership expanded in order to operate with a vision of growth in mind, in addition to ensuring that the most crucial financial, operational, and strategic needs were being met across the organsiation, and tight financial controls were being implemented to ensure that the efficiency changes that had been executed, were being sustained. The Interim Service Manager was promoted into the permanent position and the returning staff member on maternity leave was promoted into Director of Operations. The, what was originally termed, ‘Development Manager’ was promoted to Director of Development & Fundraising, and given the responsibility to oversee the newly appointed Fundraising & Communications Officer. Being One-Eighty’s 10[th] Anniversary, the fundraising and development team were tasked with raising a significant unrestricted fundraising sum to allow One-Eighty to deliver more sessions and opportunities across the two counties (Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire).
Towards the end of 2022, in order to achieve a more rapid organisational-growth target, and meet the growing needs (and referrals) of young people, trust funding supported with the development and promotion of two intervention staff to managers (Team Leaders), which allows for the foundations of a more robust staffing infrastructure which is proactive rather than reactive to meeting demand.

ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
Strategic Collaboration
One-Eighty have remained working with their partner organization, seeking opportunities for joint funding applications and project delivery across the two counties (Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire). The organisations CEO’s remain in regular communication, and as a result, this has caused various strategic forums and boards to be developed to address the growing needs of young people’s mental health, which has been exacerbated by the pandemic. One-Eighty has also been commissioned to deliver its new service offer of External Supervision to members of the partner organisaiton, in addition to being signposted to other organisations to deliver the same service across the county. One-Eighty is passionate about supporting those professionals working with young people with complex needs through our high-quality and proven supervision model. The hope is that One-Eighty will continue to utilise these opportunities to continue to deliver its service offers to those who sit across both the health and education sectors.
Growth and opportunities
One-Eighty has continued to build upon the relationships and opportunities that were initiated during 2020/2021. These include:
-
Continued relationships and contracts with local authorities which provide robust income;
-
Broader funding opportunities across Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire (the Step Change
-
Fund has enabled One-Eighty to strategically focus on its recruitment and development of staff and expand its services, in addition to The Clare Foundation offering opportunities to develop services across the county through its networks);
-
The continued voluntary sector representation on the Oxfordshire Children Safeguarding
-
Board OSCB) and opportunities which have grown as a result of that and;
-
The Schools Partnership Model being recognised, and funded, for another year to deliver the
-
menu of One-Eighty’s services as part of a ‘whole-school approach’ to improving outcomes for children and young people.
New opportunities, to enable One-Eighty to grow and be recognised across the county, include the charity’s External Supervision offer to those working with vulnerable young people, in addition to the 10[th] Anniversary Appeal providing a plethora of new contacts being aware of the work of the charity and supporting through various events and fundraising opportunities. Many of these contacts took part in the charity’s fundraising dinner (hosting 100 guests), Blenheim 7k run (raising over £12,000 and having 70 runners as part of the team) amongst many others throughout the year.
There remains a continued focus on growing the existing relationships with the education and local authority sector, in addition to expanding the awareness and commissioned opportunities within the health sector. As One-Eighty has a wealth of experience and knowledge across the two sectors, we believe that we have the skills to support with reducing the burden on colleagues who are managing growing waiting lists for diagnosis and specialist support.

Infrastructure
The Senior Leadership Team now consists of: the CEO (who is responsible for the overall leadership of the organisation - driving the vision and strategy), the Service Manager (who oversees the operational delivery of the organisation including the services delivered, and support for the team, and coordinates the partnerships and contracts with local authority leads, The Director of Operations (who oversees the management of the finances and strategy – ensuring that robust monitoring is in place and efficient changes made to enable the delivery of services to be at its best and most effective), and the Director of Development & Fundraising (who is responsible for the fundraising income and opportunities for growth, in addition to the communications about, and for, the charity).
The Senior Leadership Team are an integral part of the organisation, enabling clear communication between the Trustees and staff, and enabling decisions to be made efficiently and effectively. The SLT meets on a weekly basis to discuss budget, strategy, and significant operational items, and ensure that termly meetings are in place to review risk and opportunity areas across the organisation. The Director of Operations and CEO inform the Finance-Sub Committee which also involves the Chair of Trustees and Treasurer. This enables robust monitoring of the charity’s financial position and strategic changes to be made with immediate effect.
Key Performance Indicators
The key financial performance indicator used by Trustees to evaluate the charity’s financial performance is the overall surplus or deficit for the year and the level of reserves held at the end of the year. This is also assessed alongside the potential upcoming opportunities for the organisation which is risk assessed.
The details of the charity’s financial performance for the year and level of reserves at the end of the year are detailed further below in the Financial Review.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Income for the financial year was £532,884 and the result for the year was a surplus of income of £52,885 over expenditure. This contributed to total reserves at the year end of £85,722 and reflects the Charity’s policy of gradually building its reserves.
The majority of the charity’s income for the year, 77%, is derived from intervention revenue, for which the Charity is funded directly for each intervention it carries out. It includes annual contracts where a funder will commit to pay for a certain number if interventions over an academic year. These contracts are material in the context of the overall revenue and support cashflow as they are funded upfront. Intervention revenue also includes income derived from a project to support children over the summer, especially with the transition to secondary school. Again, each child’s place is funded by a school or local authority.
The balance of revenue was obtained via fundraising. This included grants from trusts and other funding bodies and by community fundraising. As part of its 10th anniversary, the charity raised £35k from activities including participation in the Blenheim fun run and by hosting a formal dinner. use.

ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
Expenditure for the year was £479,999, of which 81% were payroll costs. The charity continues t0 monitor its expenditure closely.
The balance sheet included a cash balance of £131,994 at the year end. It also includes deferred revenue of £125,887 which represents interventions and projects which were funded by the year end but for which the work was completed in the following financial year.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees review the reserve levels of the charity annually. This review encompasses the nature of the income and expenditure streams, the need to match income with commitments and the nature of reserves. The Trustees also take into consideration the future plans of the charity, the uncertainty over future income streams and other key risks identified during the risk review.
One-Eighty has taken a strategic view of managing our reserves, which is bespoke and tailored to the charity, rather than adopting a ‘one size fits all approach’. In writing this policy, One-Eighty has received training on reserves management and various methods of good financial management. In addition, One-Eighty has drawn on research and advice from the Institute for Voluntary Action Research, the National Council for Voluntary Organisations and the Charity Commission.
One-Eighty seeks to hold reserves that will enable us to manage any unexpected and sudden costs, as well as a small amount to cover any sudden loss of income.
This means One-Eighty aims to hold reserves at the value of £35,000, which is around 50% of our expected income in a typical month, plus £6,000 for unexpected costs.
At the 31st August 2022 total Reserves of £85,722, all of which was unrestricted.
Investment Policy
The charity does not hold any investments other than holding short-term cash deposits in a Lloyds Bank Savings Account, available for immediate drawdown.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:
-
An annual review of the principal risks and uncertainties that the charity face;
-
The establishment of policies, systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the
-
annual review; and
-
The implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on
-
the charity should those risks materialise.
The results of this process are documented in the Risk Register, which is constantly reviewed in light of any new information and formally reviewed annually.
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the charity are as follows:
10
ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
-
Risk of long-term Local Authority contracts not continuing, which form a significant amount
-
of income for the organisation.
-
Risk to cash flow if invoices from Local Authority and other commissioners are not paid in
-
time.
-
Income streams through fundraising do not continue.
Going Concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Statement of Accounting Policies within the financial statements.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
The charity plans to continue with the activities outlined above in the next year, subject to sufficient funding being sought and contract agreements arranged to deliver the work. Plans are to continue building financial security and sustainability, ensuring that an increased number of trusts and foundations are applied to on a regular basis to support the delivery of essential project work and maintenance of the charity’s growth, and most crucially that young people’s needs are met through the charity’s services. For this next financial year, the charity aims to continue addressing areas to make more efficient, develop the team in order to continue to deliver more work for young people with complex needs, and grow the service offers across both Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire.
Furthermore, One-Eighty also aims to continue building upon its high-quality reputation across these two counties, and continue developing relationships with key stakeholders to enable independent growth. The charity’s focus remains supporting vulnerable young people with complex needs, and aims to increase the preventative projects it offers to schools to enable a wider reach across the county. It also aims to focus on its ‘whole-school approach model,’ which has proven to be vital with some of the most deprived schools in Oxfordshire. Unrestricted funding from the anniversary appeal has support One-Eighty to flexibility subsidise a number of schools and projects in order to increase awareness of our support offer, with the aim of broadening our longer-term contracts and relationships.
Strengthening the Board of Trustees through the recruitment of a wider-variety of members who suit the skills necessary for driving the charity’s strategy has been a priority this year. A Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)-Education Trustee was appointed to the Board, in addition to a ‘Young Trustee’ from a local organisation who represents those with lived-experience. Scoping for other Trustees to inform the growing areas of the charity is in the process of being implemented.
Partnerships, and building upon existing relationships continue to be a priority for One-Eighty. We continue to work with Universities, offering placements for Social Work, Occupational Therapy, and Psychology Students, in addition to exploring joint working such as training and research opportunities. We have also been working closely with our Patron, Dame Helen Ghosh who is the Master of Balliol College. Regular meetings with her enable close strategic working and scoping for development opportunities. Helen is a valuable asset to the charity and is a strong advocate for the work we provide and the young people we support.

ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The EDI (Equity, Diversity and Inclusion) Committee set up in 2020 continued to grow and influence the organisation on a regular basis. The committee, which is made up of members from the Board and running through the organisation levels, delivers sessions on a weekly basis to the team and ensures it scrutinizes changes made to services, from an EDI perspective, and takes firmly into account the views and ideas from children, young people and their families. Changes made to the charity’s report writing was supported and informed by this committee.

1 Accounting policies
Charity information
One Eighty Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Unit 20, King's Meadow, Ferry Hinksey Road, Oxford, OX2 0DP.
Accounting convention
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (‘FRS102’), Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Revised 2019) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS102 (‘Charities SORP (FRS102)’), the Charities Act 2011, and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
The charity has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standards from the requirement to prepare a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is a small charity.
1.1 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.2 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used.

ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
1.3 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations and grants are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income from interventions is deferred and recognised when the service is provided.
1.4 Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services to beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the independent examiner's fees linked to the strategic management of the charity.
1.5
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: Fixtures, fittings and equipment 33% straight line
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other shortterm liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
- 1.7 Financial instruments
20
ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
1 Accounting policies (Continued)
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.8 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
1.9 Leases
Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to income on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
- 2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
21
ONE EIGHTY LIMITED – TRUSTEES’ REPORT
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
