ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Pelham is enriching lives in real and diverse ways for our community in Sidley and Bexhill-on-Sea. We are a provider and host of activities and projects that bring hope and practical support to people’s lives.
The last year has been fuller than ever, and we continue to serve our community through using our former Victorian hotel as a community hub, which we have been renovating over the last 13 years in 5 phases of redevelopment. Through this space we operate our volunteer-led Coffee Lounge as well as serving our community through RunningSpace, The Pelham Counselling Service and our Youth Work in the basement.
Our dedicated staff team remain deeply committed to the mission of the charity, complemented and outworked by our 45+ strong volunteer team who bring life to The Pelham in abundance. The volunteers contribute 47% of all the hours invested in seeing the charity flourish, demonstrating their significant contribution to day-to-day life.
Here is a summary of our impact below:
The Coffee Lounge and Community Hub
Our Coffee Lounge remains a safe and welcoming space in the community five days a week, hosted brilliantly by our dedicated team of volunteers serving over 150 customers per week.
We now partner with over 65 organisations within our community hub, working together to provide over 150 of community activities each week with opportunities ranging from health and wellbeing to education and social. Twenty-One organisations use the space weekly, and we have an annual footfall of over 40,000 people.
In December 2024, we took a snapshot of our impact and footfall for a week and had 839 occasions where someone walked through the doors of The Pelham. 312 people directly engaged with activities run by ‘The Pelham’, with 527 accessing support and engagement with other partners based here. In that week, we had 29 different organisations working from our community space and 145 hours of bookings.
In January 2025, we reached the milestone of having The Pelham Coffee Lounge open for 10 years. This has been sustained through the incredible input of our volunteer team, contributing over 6000 hours to the charity’s activities in the last 12 months, primarily in the Coffee Lounge and Community Hub.
A significant new partnership is The Pelham becoming the base for Little Gate College, which is a new educational provision for people aged 16-24 with a current EHCP (Education and Health Care Plan) and a desire to be in paid employment. Their vision is to improve the number of people with SEND (special educational needs and disabilities) who are in paid employment which aligns with our mission as a charity too.
RunningSpace
Our RunningSpace suicide prevention project continues to champion life and beat suicide by teaching people how to walk2run, bringing hope to people’s life and educating our community in suicide prevention.
Over the year and across our seven RunningSpace locations we delivered 195 sessions, with the help of over 500 volunteer run leader hours. Together, we championed 1646 lives and together walked and ran 5948 miles of hope.
We hosted two safeTALK suicide alertness training sessions, equipping 33 local people to be more able to support those in our community who are struggling with suicidal thoughts and to help keep them safe.
In September, we hosted our 4th annual World Suicide Prevention Day, a 24-hour relay event where we continuously pray, walk and run a 5km route around Sidley, Bexhill to raise awareness around suicide prevention. This time, 122 joined in to complete 180 x 5k loops (average 7 people per hour) totalling 558 miles (21 marathons!).
Youth Work
Page 2
THE PELHAM CIO
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
Our youth work now runs three sessions a week for secondary school aged students. Two of these are after-school, as well as a lunchtime club for home educated students each week. We also ensure that at least one youth activity runs each week of the school holidays and we are actively engaged with and supporting over 60 young people.
The Basement now hosts three other weekly children and youth partner organisations, as well as other one off and less regular meetings. This fulfils one of the aims of the basement development, to share the space with other organisations, much like our existing work above ground, but in a dedicated space for young people.
The Pelham Counselling Service
The Counselling Service continues to provide low-cost counselling and therapy group work to over 50 active clients through our team of ten therapists.
Over the last year we delivered over 1400 one to one sessions, as well as two group therapy courses for young people to help manage anxiety and build resilience. Thirty percent of our beneficiaries are young people, showing the reach of our counselling work.
Our monthly Bereaved by Suicide Support group is growing steadily since we began in the September 2024. Seven people have now attended, with interest and awareness of the group growing each month, reflecting our wider work as a charity around suicide prevention and bereavement support.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Total income for the year was £529,565 (2024: £361,496), and total expenditure for the year was £299,996 (2024: £379,356). This result in a net surplus for the year of £229,569 (2024: deficit £17,860).
It is the policy of the charity to maintain reserves equal to between 3 and 6 months expenditure. This amount has been designated and forms the Sustainability fund.
As at the year end total reserves amounted to £907,445 (2024: £677,876). Of which £271,468 (2024: £47,360) related to restricted funds, and £598,126 (2024: £566,707) had been designated which includes the property fund. The free reserves of the charity at the year end amounted to £37,851 (2024: £32,046). During the years ended 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2025, the charity has spent a large amount of reserves in developing the basement at The Pelham, which the Trustee's consider to be a long-term enhancement to the delivery of the charity's objectives, but as a result of this project the free reserves have been adversely affected in the short-term. Since the year-end, an unrestricted grant of £30,000 has been agreed, which will assist with returning the free reserves to the desired level.
It is the aim of the trustees and CEO to strategically build reserves to an adequate level, in order to sustain the financial health of the charity. Future expenditure will be focused around on the core objectives of The Pelham and projects will be prioritised based on the resources and funding available, as well as the needs of the community.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is governed in accordance with its Constitution, dated 15th June 2016, and in the legal and charity regulations as a registered charity and a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The power of appointing new or additional Trustees is vested in the Trustees. Prior to appointment, new trustees would be introduced to the workings of the charity, given a role description and advised of their responsibilities.
Organisational structure
At the end of the financial year, the charity had 4 trustees as well as a recognised officer, who fulfils the role of CEO. Over this financial year, there were six trustees’ meetings.

This also includes the general infrastructure and the leadership and ongoing sustainability and development of the charity. We also had 11 sessional counsellors working within The Pelham Counselling Service.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE PELHAM CIO
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Pelham CIO
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Pelham CIO (the Trust) for the year ended 31st March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.

11. PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT
During the previous period, £31,763 of funds were spent developing the basement into a space that can be used for the purposes of the charity's activities. The result of this development is that there has been substantial enhancement to the property, and as such it has been decided that the costs are more accurately reflected as capital improvements to the property, and not as expenditure on charitable activities.
