Section D Achievements and performance
**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
Over the past year we focused on investing in our staff and volunteers offering them opportunity to complete their diploma level 5 in integrative play and creative therapy.
We also focused on the accreditation of all our training through ‘Project Jabez’ equipping lives for good. We now have a diploma 5 and 6 accredited through the National Council of Integrative psychotherapy, 4 CPD courses for counsellors accredited and other CPD workshops for Churches, Parents and schools accredited through CPDT standards UK. We delivered some training in schools and also focused on offering workshops on anxiety and self-harm to parents.
St the end of last financial Year the Bracknell Town Major chose us as his charity, and has continued to support us for most of this financial year. Running several fundraising events including a walk, and a meal and music evening. This helped us to raise much needed funds for our bursary fund to support children and young people through therapeutic services.
Over the past year we have consistently been in some primary schools in Bracknell Forest, with schools continuing to buy our services in for the academic year. We have also seen new schools join our services and an increase in referrals direct from families who attend services at our centre in Bracknell Town. In all we reach just under 150 families through all our services.
We have continued to make lots of grant applications and although this has felt harder this year with more applications made for fewer reward. This has supported our income and helped us continue to grow.
Our staff team include a part time administrator, Part time finance manager, Part time development worker, Full time CEP, and three Play and creative therapists term time only (1 full time and 2 part time). We also have two volunteer therapists, 5 trustees and a volunteer web and IT support.
We will be recruiting new volunteers on our next training course in September 2023.

**Independent examiner's report on the accounts**
## **Section A Independent Examiner’s Report**
**Report to the trustees/** Charity Name CREATE HOPE **members of On accounts for the year** 31[st] August 2023 **Charity no** 1162501 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1-2 (remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)
**Respective** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. **responsibilities of** The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year **trustees and examiner** under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
**Basis of independent examiner’s statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
**Independent** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention **examiner's statement** (other than that disclosed below *)
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
- have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
