REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30th June 2024.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act') and 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Zebra Access CIO previously operated as a charity limited by guarantee as defined by the Companies Act 2006 and became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 20 October 2020.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

Our charity's purposes as set out in the objects contained in the company's memorandum of association are to:

The aims of our charity are to reduce the number of unemployed within the local area. Our aims fully reflect the purpose that the charity was set up to further.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

We review our aims, objectives and activities each year, the review looks at what we have achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. We look at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aim, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The focus of our work

Our main objectives for the year continued to be:

Public benefit

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of grants from the National Lottery and sponsorship. Increasing constraints on local authority expenditure has resulted in the charity seeking funding from a much broader group of agencies.

Reserves policy

The Management Committee has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be 3 to 4 months of expenditure. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the Management Committee are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.

Financial Review

Against the backdrop of limited resources and insecurities over funding, it has continued to be difficult to plan or develop services. The charity needs to diversify revenue to reduce the reliance on lottery funding to ensure the organisation's sustainability.

FUTURE PLANS

The charity plans continuing the activities outlined above in the forthcoming years subject to satisfactory funding arrangements. Plans are also being developed to work on a number of schemes with local employers and local job centres to place disabled people who have been through our training projects or mentoring schemes which it is hoped will lead to long-term gainful employment. The charity aims to work with other partners, organisations and do more collaborative work/projects to offer Deaf, Deaf Blind, Hard of Hearing and Deafened people opportunities across the board.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

Zebra Access CIO is a charitable incorporated organisation registered on 12 October 2020 and is controlled by its governing document.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The Trustees of the CIO are charity trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the Charity's constitution are known as members of the Management committee. Under the requirements of the Constitution the members of the Management Committee are elected to serve for a period of three years after which they must be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting.

All members of the Management Committee give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity.

Due to the nature of the activities much of the charity's work focuses upon young people and vulnerable adults. The Management committee seeks to ensure that the needs of these groups are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustee body. To enhance the potential pool of trustees, the charity has, through selective networking sought to identify individuals who would be willing to become members who could assist the charity by using their own experiences.

In an effort to maintain a broad skill mix, members of the Management Committee are requested to provide a list of their skills which are updated each year. Therefore, in the event of retirement, individuals can be approached to offer themselves for election to the Management Committee to save particular skills being lost.

Organisational structure

Zebra Access CIO has a Management Committee of up to 8 members who meet quarterly and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present the Committee has 12 members from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity. The Secretary also sits on the committee.

A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of the services rest with the Directors along with the Finance Manager. The Directors are responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Induction and training of new trustees

Each trustee is appointed with their own skill set and training is tailored to utilise and enhance these skills within the Charity's structure where necessary.

Risk management

The Management Committee has conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. A risk register has been established and is updated at least annually. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. 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 control risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients and visitors.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ZEBRA ACCESS CIO

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Zebra Access CIO ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2025.

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').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the 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 2011 ('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

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

  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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statement are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

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 the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised 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 and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The costs of minor additions or those costing below £500 are not capitalised.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the costs of each asset over its expected useful life, which in all cases is estimated at 4 years.

Impairment reviews are carried out as and when evidence comes to light that the recoverable amount of a functional fixed asset is below its net book value due to damage, obsolescence or other relevant factors.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
