Report of the Trustees
The Trustees of Beyond the Horizon Charity (“the Charity”) have pleasure in presenting their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. The financial statements comply with the Charities Act, the Charity’s Constitution 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 (FRS102) (updated 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The Charity’s objects are to relieve the distress and/or to protect the good health of children and their families who have experienced bereavement, domestic abuse or relationship breakdown.
The Charity undertakes the following activities in order to fulfill its objectives:
Service Provision
-
Counselling
-
Play Therapy
-
Child Parent Relationship Therapy and Parent Support Sessions (The Penguin Project)
-
Art Therapy
-
Family Sessions following bereavement (The BEAR project)
-
Therapeutic groups for children
-
Crisis support, advice and training to schools and other professionals
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 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.

ACHIEVEMENTS, PERFORMANCE AND FUTURE PLANS
Our Goals for 2024-2025 were:
-
Secure funding to continue all of its existing projects
-
Finalise its Equality Diversity and Inclusion plan
-
Produce a Fundraising Pack to help increase our community fundraising and regular giving
-
Plan and secure funding for a Parent/Carer Counsellor role
-
Develop our client database to increase the efficiency of the monitoring of our services.
-
Hold an annual fundraising event
-
Finalise and implement our Fundraising strategy
Key achievements of the charity in the period included:
We are proud to have secured the income needed to continue all our projects at their existing levels this year without a reduction in services. This was particularly challenging in the current funding climate with many trusts and foundations reporting record numbers of applications and statutory funding being increasingly scarce.
Service Delivery:
We responded to 459 new requests for support during the year, (507 in 2024, 425 in 2023). We are proud to have supported 303 children/parents during the year. 239 of these received a therapeutic intervention (180 children/young people, 52 parents/carers and 7 teachers).
Our outcomes data from those supported during the year shows that after one to one therapy:
-
73% of children felt less isolated and had started sharing their emotions and experiences with those around them.
-
84% had higher self-esteem
-
88% had improved confidence
-
73% had increased resilience
-
82% had improved relationships with their peers
-
78% had improved relationships with family members
-
78% of those who had a therapeutic intervention showed a reduction in concerns regarding their mental health
-
90% had improved school attendance.
We made good progress against all of our goals for this year:
-
We secured a grant which has enabled us to engage some external support with our Fundraising strategy, helping us to identify our current position and opportunities
-
We increased the number of individual support sessions available to parents
4
Beyond The Horizon Charity Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025
Report of the Trustees (continued)

-
We developed a fundraising pack for schools to do a sponsored “Walk for Wellbeing”, and did our own team sponsored walk
-
We continued to develop our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion plan with consultation from our staff and trustees.
This year, we also relocated our offices to Moseley Exchange, strengthening our connections with other community organisations.

We are extremely grateful to our funders and donors, whose support enables us to continue and develop our services. Thanks to them, we can continue to protect the mental health and emotional wellbeing of children and families across Birmingham.

Future Plans – 2025-2026
Over the next 12 months it is essential that the charity continues to focus on identifying and securing additional funding, diversifying income where possible, in order to continue delivering Counselling, Play Therapy and family support to Birmingham’s most marginalised children.
We will also:
-
Continue to listen to children and families, ensuring that we are providing a service that reflects their needs and improves life chances.
-
Embed a new client management system, rolling out to all team members to enable more efficient monitoring and increasing the security of our record keeping.
-
Plan for the implementation of actions suggested in the Fundraising Review in order to diversify income.
-
Continue to prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of our team.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The accounts for the year show net income of £13,824 for the year (2024: £13,862). The total income amounted to £390,904 (2024: £366,211), whilst expenditure for the year amounted to £377,080 (2024: £352,349).
Certain grants have been given for specific purposes and these are shown as restricted funds, however 40% (2024: 36%) 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.
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:
-
Risks associated with each stream of income and expenditure being different from that budgeted
-
Planned activity level
-
• Organisational commitments
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 £57,000 - £115,000.
7
Beyond The Horizon Charity Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025
Report of the Trustees (continued)
Unrestricted reserves at the end of year amount to £134,957 and from this the trustees have designated £42,729 to cover committed costs. Therefore, our free reserves for the year (after deducting £7,183 spent on fixed assets) are £85,045 which represents just under 4.5 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

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.

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities
The Trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the Charity and of the surplus or deficit incurred by the Charity for that year. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue to exist.
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.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities and to provide reasonable assurance that:
-
the Charity is operating efficiently and effectively;
-
its assets are safeguarded against unauthorized use or disposition;
-
proper records are maintained and financial information used within the Charity or for publication is reliable;
-
the Charity complies with relevant laws and regulations.

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 2025 which are set out on pages 12 to 23.
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.

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.
14
Beyond The Horizon Charity Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025
Principal accounting policies (continued)
Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Costs of raising funds comprises the costs of fundraising activity and includes an allocation of staff costs relating to time spent on fundraising activity.
-
Expenditure on charitable expenditure includes the costs of project delivery to further the purposes of the Charity and their associated support and governance costs.
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 £500.
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 2025 were £17,701 (2024: £15,978) and are charged to the statement of financial activities as incurred.
Taxation
As a registered Charity no provision is considered necessary for taxation.
