MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

Another year at Home-Start Birmingham North-West has gone by which has seen us busier than ever. I am delighted to report that despite the challenges of maintaining funding against increasing demand we have continued to increase our income again this year, allowing us to be able to continue to support our families both practically and emotionally. Huge thanks to our manager Donna and Get Grants who work so incredibly hard to ensure our funding is secured for another year.

Our families are still massively impacted by the current financial pressures and sadly we are seeing a huge increase in safeguarding concerns and the impact of domestic abuse –

additional support has been put in place to ensure we look after our staff and volunteers who are dealing with trauma every day.

Again, this year we have been supported by local businesses and the community which allows us to continue providing equipment, food and baby products to local families.

As ever I would like to thank our staff and volunteers for their tireless work and caring every single day, we are so very lucky to have them.

This year we have said good-bye and good luck to Cherie Lewis-Quinn who left us for pastures new and we welcomed new worker Mandy Stone to the team.

I have been reflecting this year how the work our team deliver has become so much more complex as our families struggle with multiple issues that impact their ability to parent positively. Statutory services remain stretched so the need for Home-Start becomes ever more essential.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

The main challenge this year has been recruiting and maintaining volunteers, this is not an easy job to do, and we understand that people have busy lives so giving up time for free is a big ask. The number of families being referred to us continues to increase and we will continue to look for new ways of attracting volunteers to ensure we can respond to the demands for our support.

I would like to again thank all our commissioners, funders and donors for their continued support, we know there are so many other good causes, so we never take your support for granted.

As we head into a new financial year we will continue to grab every opportunity, face t the challenges that come our way and ensure that we can respond to all the demands on our time and capacity, while ensuring our support is of the highest quality. A final thank you to my fellow trustees who give their time and expertise so generously. I wish everyone the very best for the year ahead

MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGER

We end the financial year on a positive note and as such I would like to thank our fundraising team Get Grants and in particular Katie and John who work hard to secure funding to ensure that we can continue to deliver much needed support.

Also, thank you to the organisations that have granted us funding over the last 12 months. We couldn’t do the work that we do without your commitment .

This year we saw the departure of Cherie Lewis-Quinn, Cherie worked hard with all the families that she supported, we wish her well for the future.

Mandy Stone joined us in October as our new target support worker. Mandy has joined a dedicated staff team. As we see an increase in the complexity of referrals, the staff

team continue to work tirelessly to offer support, often going above and beyond. Earlier this year, we were saddened to hear of the passing of our volunteer Dawn Walker. Dawn was a much loved member of our team and gave many hours of her own free time to support families. Dawn will be sadly missed by us all.

The biggest thank you goes to our amazing team of volunteers, who continue to offer their time and to the board of trustees for their ongoing support.

Donna Prescott

Scheme Manager

WHAT WE OFFER

Alongside our 1-1 volunteer support and targeted support work, we have continued to run our stay and play sessions at Kingstanding leisure centre, New Heights and Perry Common library.

We have been fortunate to have added two new groups to our weekly time table.

The first one is a story and song session that we run in partnership with Mere Green library.

The second is a targeted group within a temporary accommodation block in Perry Barr. The group is a lifeline to many of the families as we are unable to place volunteers for support.

Between April 2024 and March 2025 we have supported 159 families via group support.

The trial of Empowering Women, in April 2024 proved very successful and we are continuing to offer this programme to all women whom we support. The programme focus is on building confidence and self-esteem, as well as including elements of domestic abuse support.

‘XN Empowering women has supported 31 women. \

Expenditure

Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid.

Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life:

Fixtures, fittings and 33%% Straight line equipment

==> picture [205 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

Freehold investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other 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.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.

Page 6

Home-Start Birmingham-North West Notes to the Accounts

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions 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. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
