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 102J" (effectlve l January 2019). I. INTRODUCTION Young People's Shop (formerly the Chlchester Infonnatlon Shop] was established 23 year5 ago in 1999 under the governance of West Sussex County Council. Followtng funding cuts in 2009, it became an independent stand-alone service and in 2012 the organisatlon became a charitable company limited by guarantee. This preserved its ability to continue operating within the guidelines set by the National Youth Agency In 1993 for Information Shops, and to work to the Quality Standards set by Youth Access (the national organisation ft)r Youth Information. Advice & Counselling Services- YIACS). The project initially sought to retain and preserve Its open-ended counselling service for young people, operating from a room within Chichester Boys. Club. In December 2019, due the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the charity moved out of its old premises at The Boys Club in Little London. The premises had been invaluable to the project from 2012 but had become too small and cramped to cope with the growth being experienced and to accommodate future plans. New premises were identified, and we moved into them in June 2021. Since the re-opening the activity level at the charity has ballooned. Partly this is due to significantly better premlses and partly due to the surge in demand for our services following the end of the lockdowns 2nd more recently. the impart on society of the cost of living increases 2. ￿RUcTuRE, GOVERNANCE & MANAGEMENT 2.1 Governing Document The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee [with no share capital), incorporated on 28 February 2012 and registered as a charity on 31si August 2012. The Mernorandum and Articles ofAssoclation form the governing document. 2.3 Trustee Dlrectors The directors, as defined in the Memorandum and Articles, act as both the dtrectors of the company and, since the organisation is a registered charity. also as its charitsble trustees. The Board of Directors provides the strategic leadership for the organisation. All members give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. The Board meets quarterly, or more frequently if circumstances demand. and encourages the attendance of a member of the Operations Management Team, whose input is of equal weight as that of a tnlstee. At 31st March 2OZ3 there were five directors. Trustees are appointed via recommendation from exlstlng trustees followed by interview.

Outreach/ youth service lead. emotional 5UPPOrt leads and counselling lead) runs the service and meets together on a weekly basis. Several changes took place within the team during the period.
