  1. THE PROMOTION OF THE VOLUNTARY SECTOR FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC IN THE NIDDERDALE AREA OF NORTH YORKSHIRE BY PROVIDING HELP, TRAINING, ADVICE AND OTHER SUPPORT TO CHARITIES AND VOLUNTARY ORGANISATIONS.

  2. TO ADVANCE THE EDUCATION OF THE PUBLIC OF NORTH YORKSHIRE, WITH A FOCUS ON NIDDERDALE, THROUGH THE PROVISION OF A COMMUNITY LIBRARY AND ASSOCIATED SERVICES.

  1. SUCH OTHER PURPOSES AS ARE EXCLUSIVELY CHARITABLE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF ENGLAND AND WALES AS THE TRUSTEES MAY FROM TIME TO TIME DECIDE.

Using our charity’s purposes as our guide, our mission statement is: We promote wellbeing, we foster independence, we cultivate a sense of belonging . All our services and initiatives are developed and delivered according to this mission statement.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

We review our aims, objectives and activities each year, as we are preparing to publish our annual report. This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aims, objectives and activities remain focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The focus of our work

Our main objectives for the year continued to be serving members of our local communities in Nidderdale and the Washburn Valley and visitors to our area, according to need. The strategies we used to meet these objectives included:

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

How our activities deliver public benefit

Our main activities and who we try to help are described in the “Overview” section below. All our charitable activities focus on our mission, as stated above, and are broadly preventative in nature.

The impact report that we published last year clearly shows our impact in meeting needs of people living in our local area of Nidderdale and the Washburn Valley. This was the first time that we had published an impact report and our intention is to carry out a total review of our services and the impact we are making every two years. The next impact report will be published in 2026 and will review the period 1 April 2025-31 March 2026.

For the quantitative analysis of our services in the year under review, please see the table below:

Overview of activities in 2024-2025

Nidderdale Plus continued as a Community Anchor Organisation (CAO), commissioned by North Yorkshire Council (NYC), and also continued to be in receipt of the NYC “Staying healthy, independent and connected” grant. Both of these grants are unrestricted and help contribute to strategic and prevention goals that NYC has determined are well placed to be delivered in part by the Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS). In addition to these functions, we also provided services as are detailed below:

Community Library: We have a long-standing Service Level Agreement (SLA) with NYC to deliver a community library, manned by library volunteers, with a librarian funded by NYC for 7 hours per week, and with other central support. One key activity each year for the library is the Summer Reading Challenge, which is well supported by children aged 4-11 years each year.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Community Transport : We were successful with a consortium bid into the York and North Yorkshire Net Zero Fund, via NYC, in the summer of 2024 and took delivery of our new electric community car in September 2024. (NYC had been providing us with a lease car as our community car since 2015, so great thanks go to NYC for providing us with this vital resource that has helped our community for many years). The service continues to grow in terms of the number of clients and journeys, and we now run a hybrid service with people driving their own vehicles to supplement the use of our community car.

Meals on Wheels : We are now into our fourth year of this service, which is provided according to need. Great thanks go to Dusty Miller Caterers, a professional catering company based in Low Laithe, who continue to make delicious two course meals to serve our clients.

Community Minibus : We continue to offer a varied programme of days out to suit all tastes, and this is popular with local residents, who struggle to leave Nidderdale and experience different places and activities. We also offer the minibus on a group hire basis to local not-for-profit groups and charities, and in this way, we are serving needs of the community in different ways.

Befriending: our Befriending Coordinator works to match people who are lonely or living in social isolation with volunteer befrienders, who then set up regular visits and/or calls in order to alleviate the symptoms of loneliness

Digital Champion Service : This service offered and resourced an increased number of locations during the year, as well as launching and running a “Digital Switchover” campaign to highlight what was happening with digital switchover and how it could impact local residents. The villages served by the Digital Champion outreach service were: Pateley Bridge, Darley, Markington, Fewston, Lofthouse, Hampsthwaite, Summerbridge and Kirkby Malzeard

Emergency Food Aid: Nidderdale Plus has been a junior partner in a bid made by Ripon Community House for funding from national Government to provide vouchers for people who are running short of food. We continue to hand out food vouchers according to need.

Jigsaw Library: We continue to curate and maintain a large and changing menu of jigsaws that are free for people to borrow as part of our library offer. We also supply a satellite jigsaw library in Darley.

Nidderdale Charity Shop : The shop continues to attract growing patronage and the proceeds from sales form an important part of our annual income and assist in helping to fund our services as detailed above. In addition, we aim to put £20,000 into the Nidderdale Community Fund each year. This is a grant programme for local Nidderdale charities and groups who can bid for up to £2,000 to fund a local initiative or capital item/s. This grant programme is run for us by Two Ridings Community Foundation to whom we pay an administration fee.

Partnership work

NYC: We partner with NYC to deliver Access to Services at the community hub, which means we can assist people who have a variety of queries and issues with council services with information, advice and guidance from our front desk. We also deliver Tourist Information at the hub, and we re-printed our Explore Nidderdale brochure that had been facilitated by a UK Shared Prosperity grant in the previous year.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

An innovative development in the year in review was the commencement in September of the “Service Navigator social service pilot project”. This project is seeking to ensure that people in receipt of a care package or on the waiting list for a care needs assessment are supported holistically in their community by a Service Navigator, employed by Nidd Plus, who can help them with a wide variety of issues and needs. This is a two-year pilot project and it is hoped that the learning and best practice that is developed during the pilot can be scaled up to provide a greater level of community support for people throughout North Yorkshire, in time.

NHS : We began a new partnership with the North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) in January 2025 to deliver a Research Engagement Network project where we recruited Research Ready Community Champions who could talk about the importance of people signing up for medical research projects.

North Yorkshire Police : We continue to partner with NY Police to act as a police front desk and lost and found service.

Citizens Advice : We continue to partner with Citizens Advice to offer monthly appointments for people at the hub.

MIND: We continue to partner with MIND to offer weekly mental health drop in sessions, and wellbeing walks.

Financial Review

Principal Funding Sources

The principal sources of the charity’s funding are:

Current assets

The Charitable Company has net assets of £283.8k, comprising Restricted Funds (£26.9k), Designated Funds (£134.5k – of which £55.7k is fixed assets) and Undesignated Funds (£122.3k – of which £120.0k is Reserves).

Income and Expenditure during the year

Undesignated Funds (available to spend at the charity’s discretion) have reduced by £14.1k this year. This reflects a new provision (£10k) for the future replacement of the electric community car we purchased this year with the aid of a grant from North Yorkshire Council. It also reflects a new provision for potential costs associated with the acquisition of new leased premises to accommodate the increase in our staff numbers.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Significant changes this year were:

The continued shift from SLA to grant funding of defined, time-limited projects does represent a shift in the charity’s business model and creates a degree of inflexibility in operations. However, the Nidderdale Charity Shop continues to perform well, with income from sale of donated goods, including income from Gift Aid, being in line with last year at £95.2k. As well as funding the Nidderdale Plus Community Fund, this important revenue stream provides the charity with resilience in the face of funding uncertainties. It also provides Trustees with the flexibility, where necessary and justified, to maintain valuable community services beyond the life of time-limited grants.

Restricted Funds

There are Restricted Funds of £26.9k. This primarily relates to the unspent portion of a grant covering two years to run a Social Care Pilot. The remaining £8.7k relates to the unspent portion of grants for NHS Research Ready and Nidderdale Visual Arts.

Designated Funds

The trustees have decided to designate funding as detailed below:

Designated Funds carried forward

Minibus – money set aside for the purchase of a replacement vehicle was increased by £10k to £33.8k. Community Fund – an additional £20k was designated to transfer to TRCF to top up the Nidderdale Plus Community Fund for the next round of awards.

New designated funds

Electric Vehicle – an initial fund of £10k was set aside to finance the eventual replacement of the new electric community car purchased this year with a grant of £44k.

Additional premises – the trustees agreed to make provision of £15k for any costs associated with acquiring additional rented space to accommodate the increasing size of the staff team.

Investment Policy

The Trustees’ policy is to invest funds held in reserves in low-risk accounts which deliver an acceptable rate of return in line with current market savings rates for charitable organisations. At the year-end £85k was invested in a one-year fixed term bond and a further £104k in instant access savings.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Reserves Policy

The Charitable Company has decided to continue the policy of maintaining reserves covering six months expenditure, redundancy costs and a provision for dilapidations at the end of the lease. However, the reserves requirement has been recalculated to reflect the increased size of the staff team and entitlement to redundancy payments and, as a result, the target minimum reserve level is now £120k.

At the year‐end on 31 March 2025, monies held in free reserves were £122.3k (2024 ‐ £136.4k). This represents five months total expenditure (2024 – nine months).

Plans for Future Years

Nidderdale Plus benefits from a diverse range of funding streams and continues to be successful in bidding for grants to fund the development of new services and initiatives. Income from the Charity Shop continues to be an important source of stability and resilience. The charity is building strong partnerships with North Yorkshire Council and the NHS and is increasingly becoming involved in projects to support social care in our community. The strategy adopted by the Trustees is to continue to evolve these partnerships and services where they align with our mission and where a sustainable source of funding can be identified.

Structure, Governance and Management

Constitution:

Nidderdale Plus is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee. The Charitable Company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the Charitable Company and is governed under its Articles of Association. It also has a wholly owned subsidiary company, Nidderdale Limited, which had been the trading arm of the charity, but is currently dormant.

Recruiting and appointing Trustees:

Trustees are sought in line with the skills that are needed on the board and a skills audit is carried out regularly to determine where there are gaps to be filled. Trustee vacancies are advertised, and applicants are interviewed prior to meeting with the full Board. Induction into the work of the Board is carried out by the Chair of the Board and the CEO, with ongoing training being undertaken by any or all trustees as needed. Induction includes the following:

Organisational structure and decision making:

The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for the organisation and ensuring that it is well run and that it continues to deliver the charitable outcomes for the benefit of the people for whom it has been set up. The Board develops the strategy and agrees and maintains the vision, mission, and values of the organisation.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP TRUSTEES’ REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The Board meets at least six times per year, excluding the AGM, when it discusses and monitors the work and performance of the organisation. Board members also meet to progress initiatives and projects as well as with stakeholders. The Board also holds an annual ‘Away Day’ where strategy, priorities and performance are considered, and future plans agreed.

Responsibilities of the Board of Trustees

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Board of Trustees should follow best practice and:

The Board of Trustees is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. The Board of Trustees is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Risk Management

The Board of Trustees annually reviews the major risks to which the charity is exposed. A risk register has been established and, where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Significant external risks to funding have led to the development of a continuous cycle of strategic planning which allows for the diversification of funding and activities. Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients and visitors to the hub. Safeguarding and child protection policies are reviewed annually, and a Serious Incident Reporting Policy is in place that is also reviewed annually.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP

I report to the Charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 11 to 23.

This report is made solely to the Charitable Company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and the Charitable Company’s trustees as a body in accordance with section 154 of the Charities Act 2011. My independent examiner’s work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charitable Company’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charitable Company, the Charitable Company’s members as a body and the Charitable Company’s trustees as a body for my independent examiner’s work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities, applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

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.

THE NIDDERDALE PLUS PARTNERSHIP FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

The company is a private company limited by guarantee. The members are the Trustees. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company. The company is incorporated and registered in England and Wales and is a public entity (no. 05331403).

The address of its registered office is:

Station Square, King Street, Pateley Bridge, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG3 5AT

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102 (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102 1A) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Charitable Company is small and has taken advantage of the exemption provided by Section 7 of FRS 102 and has not prepared a Cash Flow Statement.

The Nidderdale Plus Partnership meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). The accounts are prepared in UK Sterling and rounded to the nearest £.

b) Going Concern

The Charitable Company has cash resources and has no requirement for external funding. Services are fully funded with monies provided in advance.

The Trustees therefore have a reasonable expectation that the Charitable Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for 12 months from signing the accounts.
