Service Provision

How We Do What We Do:

Our therapists travel to the communities where children and young people are based, seeing them within a mile of their own home. This means the service is accessible to all regardless of financial position or ethnic and family background and situated locally. We offer appointments in and out of school time and at weekends to maximise the opportunities for young people to access our support.

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The accounts for the year show net expenditure of £56,062 for the year (2021: Net income of £63,131) largely due to emergency COVID funding ending. The total income amounted to £191,514 (2021: £252,005), whilst expenditure for the year amounted to £247,576 (2021: £188,874).

Certain grants have been given for specific purposes and these are shown as restricted funds, however 56% (2021: 34%) of our total income for the year was unrestricted.

Based on the expected income and expenditure levels, Trustees consider that the Charity has adequate resources to maintain its ongoing work however, further funding needs to be identified in the next financial year in order for the charity to achieve its plans.

Reserves policy

The calculation of the required level of reserves is an integral part of the Charity’s planning, budget and forecast cycle. It takes into account:

6

Beyond The Horizon Charity Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022

Report of the Trustees (continued)

During the year, the trustees have reviewed their reserves policy which is as follows:

•The charity requires free reserves to cover 3-6 months of its annual budgeted core costs, not covered by secured income, of around £25,000-50,000.

Unrestricted reserves at the end of year amount to £74,689 and from this the trustees have designated £22,138 to cover committed costs. Therefore, our free reserves for the year (after deducting £3,425 spent on fixed assets) are £49,126 which represents 6 months of annual budgeted costs not covered by secured income.

The charity’s free reserves are therefore in line with policy.

Trustees will review this policy annually and the level of reserves will be reviewed throughout the year.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

Beyond The Horizon Charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation and a registered Charity governed by its Constitution. The only voting members are its Trustees.

The Charity was registered on 7 February 2014 when it became a legal organisation. It commenced activity on 1 April 2014 following the transfer of its staff and activities from another Charity. Prior to that date the charitable activity had been carried out by the same members of staff as a separate project within a larger Charity, namely Spurgeons.

Appointment of Trustees, induction & training

The Trustees who served during the year are detailed below.

New Trustees may be appointed by invitation to join the Board given that they have the necessary skills and experience to contribute to the Charity’s activities and to be able to discharge their obligations as Trustees.

New Trustees will be provided with copies of the Charity’s Constitution and all relevant policies and procedures and will be given the necessary training to enable them to carry out their duties as Trustees.

The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has an appropriate system of controls, financial and otherwise.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Beyond the Horizon Charity

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Beyond the Horizon Charity (‘the Charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 11 to 22.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 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 2011 Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

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

1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3) the accounts 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.

Alan Clee, Chair of Trustees

Date: 6 October 2022

Principal accounting policies

Basis of preparation

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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (updated 1 January 2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS102)) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102).

Beyond the Horizon Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

Going Concern statement

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Charity will continue to operate. The validity of this assumption is dependent upon the continuance of support from the Charity’s key funders and stakeholders and in response to the progress made by the Charity in pursuing a viable budget including the obtaining of further grants and donations. The Charity’s business plan shows that the Charity will be able to operate in the foreseeable future. Based on this understanding the Trustees believe that it remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments, which would result from the basis of preparation being inappropriate.

Funds

General accumulated funds are unrestricted funds available for general purposes and include funds designated for a particular purpose; the use of such funds remains at the discretion of the Trustees.

Restricted funds are funds subject to conditions imposed by the donor or by specific terms of the appeal under which the funds are raised. The restrictive conditions are binding upon the Charity.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Charity is legally entitled, ultimate receipt is probable and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

Income relating to future periods, as a result of donor imposed conditions specifying the time period, has been treated as deferred income.

Income dependent on certain conditions, amounting to more than mere administrative requirements, is recognised when the conditions have been fulfilled.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.

13

Beyond The Horizon Charity Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022

Principal accounting policies (continued)

Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at a rate calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over a period of less than the estimated useful life of the assets at the following rates:

Computer equipment - 3 years

Fixed assets are capitalised when their value exceeds £200.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand and short term deposits repayable on or within a three month notice period.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.

Pensions

The Charity contributes to employee’s individual personal pension plans. The employer contributions to the scheme in 2022 were £9,883 (2021: £7,897) and are charged to the statement of financial activities as incurred.

Taxation

As a registered Charity no provision is considered necessary for taxation.
