YOUTURN FUTURES Charity Iyo: 1156468 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Supported Pathway Case Studies Case Study A *AII n8mes haye been changed to pmtetl &nonymlty Jermaine" was referred to Hertfordshire Supported Pathway following an arrest for possession with intent to supply. Additionally, there were concerns ovei his social group grooming him for gang activity. At the time of his referral, he was not in any education, employment or training. Jermaine built up a good relationship with his case worker Steve, something which his parents believed was absent from the interactions with olher youth professionals. Multiple attempts were made to re-engage Jermaine in Education, but he wouldn't engage. Since working with YouTurn, Jermaine has attended and passed a CSCS card course and exam, and has also been out of the house after 3 months of not going outside independently. He has stopped associating with his negative peer group and there has been no police inielligence regarding him. Jermaine has also secured a place at a boxing academy course which includes English and maths at Barnet and Southgate College. Some feedback from Jermaine's father". "He has gone from strength to slrength, from getting to an interview for an apprenticeship to gaining a cis card which will hopefully get him into employment. From the teenager who was hanging around with the wrong crowd and disappearing for a few days on a regular basis I feel he has turned a corner, he is starting to see that he can have a future if he applies himself and is starting to feel positive about himself which is down to his case worker. YouTurn has been so supportive and helpful that literally the name YouTurn has made Jermaine do a YouTurn from a very dangerous palh he was taking. My wife and l are truly grateful for everything you and YouTurn has done for Jermaine." .!.- J- Case Study B Declan was referred to ihe I'.Jn•val llAAfrtvAehira Daihwail after his drug use had escalated, which was affecting his mental heallh and behaviour in school leading to him being schooled at horne online. There had also been instances where others had made allempts to groom him into a gang and he was associating with peers who were of concern to professionals. Declan initially struggled to engage with his caseworker Emma, but through Ihe sessions they started to build a rapport and he began to open up. Declan has now completed sessions helping him to understand about county lines and gangs. exploitation and knife crime. He has made disclosures about his experiences and has started to learn from them and make positive choices about his behaviour in the community. Emma was able to support Declan with making a plan to reduce his drug use which he has successfully achieved. and this has had a great positive effect on his relationships with family and his mental health and behaviour in general. Declan has set his goals for the future including continuing his education at college and obtaining an appTeniiceship. He continues to engage with Emma to support him into the next stage of his life and achieving these goals. IIIPage

Reasonable assuran is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordan with ISAS (UK) will aayS detect 8 material misstatement when it exists. Misststemenls Can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliancE with laws and regulations. Vve design procedures in line with our responsibilities. outlined above. to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below- Enquiry of managemenl and those charged with governance about actual and potential litigation or claims and the identification of non-compliance with laws and regulations. Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with 8pplic2ble laws and regulations.

Perfomiing analytical procedures to idents'fy any unusual or unexpected relalionships that may indicgte risks of material misslalement due to fraud. Professional spticISM in course of the audit and with audit sampling in material audrt areas. Because of tha inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities. including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-complian¢e with regulation. This risk increases the more that Complian with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-complian. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
