## **Trustees' Report** 

The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 28 February 2023. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

To preserve and protect health and advance education surrounding youth issues, equality and bullying for the Public benefit by: 

1) Operating as a youth charity with a core aim to advance and promote the wellbeing of our beneficiaries; young people aged 12-25. We will work across five key areas: bullying prevention, mental health & wellbeing, digital literacy, healthy relationships and identity (primarily orientated around protected characteristics) by raising awareness of the issues faced by young people to improve outcomes across their lives. 

2) Contributing towards the fields of research and innovation within our respective core focal areas (see 1) by carrying out primary and secondary research, in addition to the analysis of big data (i.e. social listening) in collaboration with selected partners. This learning will inform our direct support provision and public campaigns to benefit our youth beneficiaries and wider society. 

3) Supporting our youth beneficiaries by providing direct advice and facilitating peer-to-peer support on digital forums for our youth beneficiaries as a means of aiding their navigation through the common challenges associated within our core focal areas (see 1), thereby improving their outcomes across health, mental health, social wellbeing, education and future prospects. 

4) Advance education through the research, development and distribution of educational materials in both traditional and digital educational environments to directly benefit our youth beneficiaries and educational practitioners. 

5) Raise awareness and positively influence societal attitudes and behaviours towards our five key focal areas (see 1) by using public awareness campaigns and sharing our research and insights publicly to benefit our youth beneficiaries and wider society in order to improve outcomes in their lives. 

6) Advocate the needs and challenges of young people to key stakeholder groups and policy makers by monitoring and evaluating the experiences and opinions of young people and amplifying and reflecting their voice in order to positively benefit their lives across wider society. 

7) Provide secondary support, advice, information and resources to additional stakeholder groups; such as parents/guardians, educators and industry in order to further benefit our youth beneficiaries and advance the education and future prospects of young people. 

These objectives are delivered across 4 key areas: 

Support: we deliver direct online support and support articles from digital youth mentors 

Research: we produce new, innovative research surrounding bullying, mental health and other issues such as gender stereotypes 

Education: our free educational resources are delivered in classrooms across the country 

Campaigns: we produce innovative content to generate societal shifts in attitudes and behaviours 

Ditch the Label confirms that the trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission’s published guidance on the Public Benefit requirement under the Charities Act 2011.

## **Achievements and performance** 

Ditch the Label is a global youth charity that helps vulnerable young people aged 12-25 navigate the issues that affect them the most. The young people who come to us for help struggle with issues such as bullying, online abuse, mental health, coming out, anxiety and self-esteem. 

Our charitable aims are delivered through four key areas: 

•Support: online support community from clinically trained support mentors, web resources, social networking platforms, online gaming channels and facilitated peer support; 

•Research: in collaboration with students, schools and colleges, social networks and others, we produce new, innovative research surrounding bullying, mental health and the many other issues in the realms of youth; 

•Education: our educational resources are delivered in classrooms across the country, tackling subjects such as gender stereotypes, bullying, mental health, online challenges, digital literacy and unconscious bias; 

•Campaigns: we produce innovative content to generate societal shifts in attitudes and behaviours surrounding the issues affecting young people. 

2022 gave us the opportunity to refine our thinking in terms of the value Ditch the Label provides to the life of children and young people aged 12-25. As a digital-first charity, our role is constantly evolving in line with breakthroughs in technology and expansions of the challenges young people face today. 

In 2021 against a backdrop of the pandemic and an enormous squeeze in our funding, we were forced to economise and downsize our programs and impact. Now that our funding is improving and we’re seeing a return to healthy levels, we are able to think differently about our modes of delivery and the ways we want to support young people today. 

Our commitment to the provision of high-quality clinical support to young people with varied and often complex needs has never wavered and we have been able to consistently provide this, helped by the recruitment of 3 new support mentors. We provide support primarily in English, but should it be helpful or required, our mentors are able to provide support in the following additional languages: German, Spanish, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Swedish and Norwegian. 

Evidence overwhelmingly shows that the global need for Ditch the Label is growing exponentially as mental wellbeing is in decline with increasing rates of anxiety and depression among young people and a 67% rise in teenage suicides since 2010. Hate is surging and while these issues can affect all young people it is clear that those from disadvantaged backgrounds or marginalised communities who may not have access to other support are particularly vulnerable to these challenges. 

Our focus for 2022 was to sustain our direct support for young people and build the organisation. We are delighted to report that we have managed to secure a number of partnerships that have enabled us to invest in new infrastructure; such as a new Web 3.0 website and an expansion into Spanish language so we remain responsive to the needs of young people. 

We remain focussed on our continued growth, and committed to supporting children and young people globally to ensure they are able to thrive.

## TESTIMONIALS 

From young people we supported: 

“I have a safety plan for when I’m suicidal, which was really the biggest problem for me. When I get those intrusive thoughts, it’s debilitating. But now I feel equipped and empowered enough to fight even if it’s just for one more day.” 

“They gave me courage and told me what I was feeling was normal.” 

“It was really helpful to be able to talk to someone about my issue and it has relieved me of a lot of mental stress.” 

“The support, community, and friends I have made on DTL, have gotten me through the loss of two family members and two close friends. Ya'll have gotten me through the pandemic and helped me keep from retreating completely into myself. There are no words to describe how much ya'll have helped me.” 

“How caring everybody is. Not just the digital mentors, but the other people participating could have only met you an hour ago, but they’re ready to offer any advice they can and help. It’s seriously the best.” 

From educators: 

“I would consider this resource as both a standalone lesson and as part of the larger topic. I think this is engaging. It’s sometimes difficult to make these sorts of ambiguous sessions engaging but these resources will help.” 

“Very usable resources. Relevant and uses role play to keep the pupils active and involved. Scenario cards are very real, based on life experiences” 

“I think it is engaging with a wide variety of activities. It contains lots of facts, which is great, also includes paired tasks and not just teacher-led or whole class work.” 

From students: 

“A great active learning environment that enhances the awareness of problems in society.” 

“An engaging series of lessons that expanded our knowledge on a prevalent threat to an equal society.”

## **Financial review** 

The principal funding sources for the Charity are currently by way of donations, grants, corporate sponsorship, merchandise sales and events. 

The Directors and Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. 

The Charity plans to continue activities as outlined above, engaging with its core market in the forthcoming year subject to satisfactory funding arrangements. 

## _**Policy on reserves**_ 

It is the policy of the Charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use wherever possible, should be maintained at a level equivalent to three month’s expenditure. 

The Directors and Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity’s current activities, while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. As part of ongoing risk management, the Charity will review the reserves policy each year or as the result of a significant change or event.

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Ditch The Label Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

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 Ditch The Label Ltd 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.

Since Ditch The Label Ltd'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 CTA, which is one of the listed bodies. 

Since Ditch The Label Ltd'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 CTA, which is one of the listed bodies.

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

## **Ditch The Label Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 28 February 2023** 

## **1 Charity status** 

The charity is limited by share capital, incorporated in England & Wales . 

The address of its registered office is: Phoenix House, 3rd Floor 32 West Street Brighton BN1 2RT 

## **2 Accounting policies** 

## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates** 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

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 (FRS 102)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Ditch The Label Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity. 

## **Income and endowments** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably. 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. 

Page 14 



## **Ditch The Label Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 28 February 2023** 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. 

## _**Deferred income**_ 

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when: 

- The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods; or 

- The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the charity has unconditional entitlement. 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Raising funds**_ 

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Support costs** 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## **Governance costs** 

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 28 February 2023** 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment of assets. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

**Asset class Depreciation method and rate** Fixtures, fittings and equipment 25% reducing balance Computers 25% reducing balance 

## **Stock** 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of replacement cost and cost. 

## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **Trade creditors** 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

## **Borrowings** 

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing. 

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges. 

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 

## **Financial instruments** 

## _**Classification**_ 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities. 

## _**Recognition and measurement**_ 

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the charity, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 28 February 2023** 

## _**Debt instruments**_ 

Debt instruments which meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method: 

(a) The contractual return to the holder is (i) a fixed amount; (ii) a positive fixed rate or a positive variable rate; or (iii) a combination of a positive or a negative fixed rate and a positive variable rate. 

(b) The contract may provide for repayments of the principal or the return to the holder (but not both) to be linked to a single relevant observable index of general price inflation of the currency in which the debt instrument is denominated, provided such links are not leveraged. 

(c) The contract may provide for a determinable variation of the return to the holder during the life of the instrument, provided that (i) the new rate satisfies condition (a) and the variation is not contingent on future events other than (1) a change of a contractual variable rate; (2) to protect the holder against credit deterioration of the issuer; (3) changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant taxation or law; or (ii) the new rate is a market rate of interest and satisfies condition (a). 

(d) There is no contractual provision that could, by its terms, result in the holder losing the principal amount or any interest attributable to the current period or prior periods. 

(e) Contractual provisions that permit the issuer to prepay a debt instrument or permit the holder to put it back to the issuer before maturity are not contingent on future events, other than to protect the holder against the credit deterioration of the issuer or a change in control of the issuer, or to protect the holder or issuer against changes in levies applied by a central bank or arising from changes in relevant taxation or law. 

(f) Contractual provisions may permit the extension of the term of the debt instrument, provided that the return to the holder and any other contractual provisions applicable during the extended term satisfy the conditions of paragraphs (a) to (c). 

Debt instruments that are classified as payable or receivable within one year on initial recognition and which meet the above conditions are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, net of impairment. 

With the exception of some hedging instruments, other debt instruments not meeting these conditions are measured at fair value through profit or loss. 

Commitments to make and receive loans which meet the conditions mentioned above are measured at cost (which may be nil) less impairment. 

## _**Fair value measurement**_ 

The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique.
