**Clear Emotional Trauma and Therapy Specialists TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** 

The Trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

The Charity’s objects were updated by the Board with approval from the Charity Commission. They are: 

The advancement of health for children, young people and adults harmed by abuse and emotional trauma through provision of therapy, counselling, practical and emotional support. 

The advancement of education for public benefit through the provision of training and information to help prevent abuse, to reduce its occurrence and to support emotional resilience in schools, communities and the workforce. 

In furtherance of those objectives our charitable activities are to: 

-Provide an age-appropriate therapeutic support service for adults, children and their trusted carers. -Support the needs of children and young people where they have experienced emotional, physical, sexual and psychological abuse and other emotional trauma such as traumatic bereavement . 

-Support the needs of adults harmed by sexual violence and abuse. 

-Provide psycho-education and therapeutic parenting support for parents/carers of children participating in therapy 

-Provide opportunities for creative groups to build emotional resilience. 

-Support the wellbeing and professional development of our workforce. 

-Increase skills, knowledge and raise awareness through training for families, caregivers, schools, professionals, business and the wider community. 

The trustees kept in mind the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and overseeing the day-to-day operations undertaken by the charity. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

The year from April 2022 to March 2023 saw continuing high demand for therapy and counselling services, in particular for children and young people, where we saw longer waiting times than have been previously experienced. Waiting lists for both child and adult services were managed closely throughout the year, with decisions to pause for new referrals when demand was at its peak, to provide clarity and reduce overwhelm for both clients and staff. 673 children, young people and adults were referred for 1-2-1 counselling, therapy and mentoring support over the year, a decrease of 128 on the previous year. The drop in referrals is because of the need to close the adult waitlist during the year due to the ongoing demand on caseloads carried forward from the previous year. 

Over the course of the year all 1-2-1 therapy with children and young people returned to in-person face to face. Adults were offered a choice of in-person, online or telephone counselling. This choice remains as a legacy of the Covid 19 pandemic. Remote counselling work has been strengthened with new policies and additional training so that it is now embedded into service delivery rather than an ‘emergency’ measure as it was seen during the height of the pandemic. Safeguarding concerns rose for both children and adults and overall the levels of complexity for clients was heightened.

**Clear Emotional Trauma and Therapy Specialists TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** 

The Board approved the Strategic Plan and Budget for 2022-23 at the start of the operational year and received ongoing reports on the progress of the action plan alongside detailed management accounts at each subsequent meeting. Highlights for the year include: 

-Delivery of therapy and counselling to meet increasing demand, reducing the impact of trauma, building emotional resilience and receiving excellent client feedback 

-A charity development day that set the scene for the coming year, and provided training on the new database, notetaking and BUSS – Building Underdeveloped Sensorimotor Systems in children who have experienced developmental trauma. 

-Ongoing delivery of our fourth intake of students for our L5 Post Qualifying Diploma in Working Therapeutically with Children and Young People 

-An ongoing programme of workforce development including L3 Qualification in Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults for all staff, Complex PTSD Masterclass, Mental Health First Aid and training from the Child Sexual Abuse Centre of Excellence in response to increased funding to support the growing demand for therapy for children harmed by sexual abuse. 

-Supporting the future workforce through our clinical placement pathways for adult person-centred counsellors and EMDR therapists and trainee clinical psychologists. 

-The launch of CLEAR for Business in October 2022 to support mental health and emotional resilience in the workplace. 

-Development of new trauma stabilisation pilot in collaboration with the NHS and Integrated Care System. 

Wellbeing for employed staff and sessional workers was a high priority. Trauma-centred, trauma-sensitive yoga and tai-chi movements for wellbeing sessions were introduced for any member of the team who wished to attend. Additional 1-2-1 supervision continued to be offered on request, alongside monthly group supervision. There was a permanent change of Clinical lead for the Child Service and a temporary one for the Adult Service to cover a career break. Additional changes in the central administration team due to retirement and relocation tested the strength of our processes and business continuity plans. 

The Charity maintained its involvement in partnerships that helped people who were unemployed and economically inactive – providing counselling and therapy where trauma was a barrier to work and training. This work was mainly funded through the European Social Fund. The delivery of this work ended as the operational year ended, with short follow-up period to finalise claims and evaluations. Evaluation of this work demonstrated excellent outcomes with 67% of people supported by CLEAR through EMDR therapy and person centred counselling moving into work, education or economic activity. 

New partnerships were developed, for example through the Home Office funded Safer Streets Programme where CLEAR delivered training to business in Truro as part of the Violence Against Women and Girls strand. We continued to work alongside other DASV organisations from a delivery perspective to ensure people could access support in the shortest possible time and at a strategic level to feed in emerging themes and issues to policy makers and funders. 

A further development in-year was the commissioning of partnership approaches to delivery across Cornwall and Devon by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner. This is a growing trend in commissioning where a lead partner is accountable for a group of organisations. There are advantages to this through the ability to learn from others, raise standards and share resources, however there are disadvantages for lead Partners in that all of the money flows into the accounts of lead partner with the majority being passported out to other partners. This over-inflates the income for lead partner and can affect bids to other charitable trusts and grant programmes.

The Board recognises the commitment and dedication of each member of the CLEAR team for delivering high quality, safe clinical practice; for supporting the development of strategic and delivery partnerships that help to further our own charitable objectives and to bring additional support for people in most need across Cornwall; for building a skilled, engaged and resilient workforce and for making a difference in the lives of children and adults affected by abuse and emotional trauma. 

The Board recognises the commitment and dedication of each member of the CLEAR team for delivering high quality, safe clinical practice; for supporting the development of strategic and delivery partnerships that help to further our own charitable objectives and to bring additional support for people in most need across Cornwall; for building a skilled, engaged and resilient workforce and for making a difference in the lives of children and adults affected by abuse and emotional trauma. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

Income for the year has increased to £904,230 (2022 £852,230). The total expenditure for the year amounted to £838,371 (2022 £719,116). Leaving an overall increase in reserves of £65,859 (2022 £133,204). 

The Charity is reliant on the income from the agency organisations which fund the therapy sessions and from funding bodies to support its charitable activities. The Board have set a limit of £100,000 to be the desired unrestricted reserves in order to maintain the charities services and/or enable an orderly wind down during any difficult economic period. 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. 

Strict financial limitations are in place to help prevent fraud and aid the healthy expansion of the charity. All transactions will be reported regularly to the trustee body at their meetings. Prior approval of any expenditure over £1,000 must be obtained from the Board of Trustees. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**

## **Taxation** 

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

Page 12 



**Clear Emotional Trauma and Therapy Specialists NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **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: 

Computer Equipment 33% Reducing Balance 

Fixtures and Fittings 33% Reducing Balance 


## **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. 

## **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. 

## **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. 

Page 13 



**Clear Emotional Trauma and Therapy Specialists NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **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. 

## 2 **Company status** 

The company is a charitable incorporated organisation(CIO) and consequently does not have share capital. As a CIO if the CIO is wound up, the members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities.
