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.

YOUTURN FUTURES
Matters on which are required to report by exception
We have nothing lo report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports)
Regulation5 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion..
the infomiation given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees, report,. or
the chanty has not kepl adequate accounting records., or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns., or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of tru8tee8
As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, set out in page 29, the trustees are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control
as the trustees detemiine is necessary lo enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstat6mant. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial slatements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related lo going concern and using Ihe going concem basis of accounting unless
the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to ￿ase operations, or have no realistic alternative bul to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial 5taternents
We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations
made under section 154 of that Act
Our objeclivas are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole ar8 fre6 from material
misstatement, whelher due to fraud 01 error, and to issue an audrtor's report Ihal includes our opinion. Reasonable
assuran￿ is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordan￿ with ISAS (UK) will
a￿ayS 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.
Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other adjustments for
appropriateness,. assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential
bias,. and evaluating the business rationale of any significant tr8nsa¢lions that are unusual or outside th& normal course
of business.
Perfomiing analytical procedures to idents'fy any unusual or unexpected relalionships that may indicgte risks of material
misslalement due to fraud.
Professional s￿pticISM 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.
A fijrther description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is Io(2ted on the Financial Reporting
Council's website at.. ww.frc.o
