Sunbeams Play
Objectives and activities
Principal activity
The principal activity of Sunbeams Play is that of an after school and holiday club for 5 to 25 year olds with autistic spectrum disorder or related conditions that will enable them, their siblings and parents to interact with each other through play and social activities. Staff and parents will be able to exchange information and will be signposted to other relevant organisations. Sunbeams also provides support for under 5's with the development of a Stay & Play Group and for those over 25 years old with a late diagnosis or going through assessment.
Charitable objectives
To promote and protect the physical and mental health of children, young people, adults and their families who live with neurodevelopmental disorders including autistic spectrum disorders and attention related disorders by providing and promoting appropriate care, support, development and opportunities, education and practical advice.
Sunbeams Play is a registered charity which provides a fun, safe and caring environment for children, young people and adults with a neurodevelopmental disorders (Autistic Spectrum Disorders) to thrive. The charity understands how difficult it can be for those on the spectrum to engage in mainstream activities due to a variety of social needs and anxieties. At Sunbeams Play they can relax, play and interact in an environment that is suitable for them, alongside or with others who have the same/similar needs. Sunbeams Play is a self-referral centre in Great Yarmouth which aims to provide a safe, understanding and secure setting for children, young people and vulnerable adults affected by autism and related conditions while offering respite and support to parents/carers.
Public benefit statement
The Trustees have had due regard to the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance.
Achievements and performance
All planned events took place including a successful 10th anniversary masquerade ball that was attended by over 100 people and has resulted in a number of new contacts and supporters.
We were delighted to maintain our high standards following an Ofsted inspection, receive the SAFER program certificate awarded to recognise the high standards of our safeguarding policies and procedures and the Big Norfolk Holiday Fun 'Best Provider' for the Easter holiday sessions.
Following our commitment to lower waste and become more paper free, we have moved to two online systems used by schools; Tapestry which enables us to monitor and record children and young people's progress and Smartlog an online training system enabling staff to access training at different levels and when needed, safeguarding and first aid remain face to face. Smartlog also provides a training matrix and individual records along with the opportunity to record checks, tests and audits and receive reminders for upcoming service requirements.
We produced three quarterly magazines which were distributed through GP surgeries, clinics and schools as well as the public providing information and case studies linked to autism and our services.
A group of service users and volunteers have developed a 'Friends of Sunbeams' group to promote and raise awareness and funds

Groups
The Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday groups continued to run at full capacity supporting children and young people. We continue to hold a waiting list for all groups.
The newly developed Stay & Play works with various agencies to provide valuable support and guidance for parents and carers of children believed to be on the spectrum or with linked conditions.
Late Diagnosis Group for over 25-year-olds continues to grow with 25 members accessing group support and training and 264 online support.
Support
Data shows that our support co-ordinator made 6,506 contacts in the last financial year (1 June 2023 - 31 May 2024), providing an average of just over 542 per month or 125 per week. As with previous years the high levels of contact through social media (50%) including Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram and Twitter continued to be the communication of choice for service users.
There has been an increase in support around training and employment with education, social care and benefits lowering but with the current in-depth support needed with benefits we have been completing more lengthy forms and attending an increased number of meetings such as tribunals and the mediation services.
Although figures for mental health support are stable, it remains a high concern, once again ending the year at 31% with an increase in children and young people's needs. This continues to be a nationally recognised issue and we are delighted to be able to continue to provide support through support groups and 'in person' one to one counselling sessions for children, young people, vulnerable adults, parents and carers.
Sunbeams Play Setting
The website continued to be regularly updated with news articles and photos. We continue to run two Facebook pages used regularly by parents to access information and support, a third sharing the therapy pets journey used to encourage children and young people to carry out daily activities and a page linked to the Late Diagnosis Group.
Through our reputation we continued to work with a number of organisations providing advice and support:
-
Children's services and Early Help continue to refer families
-
We work closely with the police service to ensure children and young people attending are fully aware of the consequences of inappropriate behaviour and that Autism is recognised and understood
-
Education - Sunbeams provides support and advocacy within 17 local schools, 3 colleges and a training centre
-
Local Health clinics - Sunbeams provides support and reports for children, young people, adults and parents. Following the request by two GP groups to audit their surgeries, provide training and help to develop an autistic friendly environment we regularly visit the surgeries to monitor development.
-
Attending Family Support Meetings and educational reviews

Achievements and performance (continued)
Children/young people
We have continued to gain funding to help those struggling due to financial difficulties enabling them to continue to access sessions and ensure continuity.
Partnership working continues through interaction with:
-
Norfolk County Council's SEN coordinators to lower EHCP delays
-
Parents to gain EHCP, advising on applications and tribunals
-
Parents and young people to gain benefits such as Disability Living Allowance and PIP
-
Schools and colleges to raise and maintain attendance and to lower behaviour issues, provide support and advice
-
GP's and clinics to ensure service users are heard
Staff/volunteers
Along with required training staff have continued to access personal development through training opportunities funded by Sunbeams and carried out to support our work. We have welcomed our 2nd work experience staff member and have a strong group of volunteers.
Financial review
Total income amounted to £296,512 (2023: £320,088) and after incurring expenditure of £331,259 (2023: £319,250), the net expenditure amounted to £34,747 (2023: net income £838).
Reserves policy
Holding reserves not required for the day-to-day operations is always difficult for smaller charities. The funds we are fortunate enough to raise are most often for a designated purpose, even if that purpose is over an extended time period, paying for salaries for example. Thus, it is never easy to put "x" months of operating expenses to one side. We believe that tight financial control with a heavy emphasis on weekly cash management, and the production of management accounts within two and a half weeks of the month end, is vital.
The charity had free reserves represented by net current assets in the general fund, of £102,295 at the year-end (2023: £136,903). In addition to this the charity held £134,302 (2023: £163,552) of restricted reserves to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors.
The next 18 months will see a huge step forward in Sunbeams' operations. The Charity will be acquiring its own freehold premises. Located close to Sunbeams' existing building, this will provide much better facilities for all the work currently undertaken. In addition the new premises means that additional numbers of clients can be catered for. This acquisition is being financed by Charity Bank, grants, and a contribution from Sunbeams' general funds.
The Trustees continue to recognise the policy of holding funds equivalent to six months operating costs, which amounts to approximately £160,000. However the next two financial years will not, in all probability, see Sunbeams achieve this level of reserves. The reason being the expenditure incurred in the move to new premises (taking place in April 2025) and the subsequent increase in services.
It must be stressed that the rate of success for grants remains high. This, together with first class financial control and cash conservation, means that the Trustees are confident that Sunbeams' financial resources are well able to sustain this period of expansion.

Plans for future periods
The Trustees plan on continuing running the charity in line with the objectives set out on page 2.
Following discussions with trustees, staff and service users we have been looking at various options to relocate and have found a building locally which we would like to purchase and are looking at mortgages and loans as well as various funding opportunities. We now have a good business plan provided free of charge via the Norfolk Community Foundation Pro-help scheme who are now developing an electronic registration system to log the children and young people's attendance.
We are also looking at the possibility of reregistering for early years and providing a special needs nursery. This would be self-funding and would mean the building is used throughout the day. The management team are in contact with several people to look at need, requirements and options for funding.
We will continue to attend and hold various fundraising events.

Structure, governance and management (continued)
Risk management
The Trustees review the risks of the charity on a regular basis and have implemented policies and procedures to mitigate exposure to these risks. In addition a review of all financial risks is undertaken on a regular basis.
Organisational structure
During the financial year, both the two senior executives within Sunbeams serve on the board which normally meets quarterly but has the ability to meet more frequently if required.
The two senior executives have a weekly review of the charity's current financial condition and progress. The finance committee includes a nominated Trustee. It meets regularly between full Trustee meetings and reports further at each Trustee meeting. The committee has the ability to communicate directly with Trustees at any time should there be matters it believes should be addressed immediately.
True and fair override
The financial statements have been prepared to give a "true and fair" view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a "true and fair view". This departure has involved following the 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 issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Independent examiner
A resolution to reappoint Mark Proctor of Lovewell Blake LLP as independent examiner for the ensuing year will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.
The trustees' annual report was approved on 12 February 2025 and signed on behalf of the board of trustees by:

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Sunbeams Play
Year ended 31 May 2024
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 May 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, statement of financial position and the related notes.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member 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 member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.

Sunbeams Play
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Sunbeams Play (continued)
Year ended 31 May 2024
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 that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

Notes to the financial statements
Year ended 31 May 2024
1. General information
The charity is a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is 7 Enterprise Court, Gapton Hall Road, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, NR31 0ND.
2. Statement of compliance
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following the 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 issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
The Trustees and the team at Sunbeams Play have continues to make good progress over the current year covered by these accounts. We continue to put forward robust and well thought through requests for grants and have a continued good response. For the reasons set out above the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of these accounts.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

Notes to the financial statements (continued)
Year ended 31 May 2024
3. Accounting policies (continued)
Income
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
- expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
Operating leases
Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
| Fixtures and fittings | - | 33% & 11% Straight line |
|---|---|---|
| Motor vehicles | - | 20% Straight line |
| Equipment | - | 33% & 20% Straight line |

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
