The Trustees of Centered Horseplay C/o Marie Longstaff Stown Cottage Crackstone Near Minchinhampton GL6 9BD

15[th] March 2023

Dear Trustees

Independent examiner’s report to the charity trustees of Centered Horseplay

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the period ended 31 May 2022, which are set out on pages 1 and 2.

Respective responsibilities of charity trustees and examiner

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

I have examined your charity accounts in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission.

My examination included a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as charity 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 examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination and have no concerns. No matter has come to my attention which:

Structure, Governance & Management

Governing Constitution Document:

How the Charity Charitable Incorporated Organisation is Constituted:

Trustee Selection Apart from the first charity trustees, every trustee must be Methods: appointed for a term of 3 years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees.

In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have regards to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO

Induction & Post Appointment Induction Training of new CH provides appropriate induction for all staff and volunteers, Trustees: including trustees. The induction provides training and information about CH’s safeguarding and child protection policies and procedures.

CH provides support to individuals in a way that’s appropriate for the role, confirms the conduct expected of staff and provides opportunities for a new member of staff or volunteer to discuss any issues or concerns about their role or responsibilities.

Safeguarding Training Levels

Staff, trustees and volunteers with minimal participant contact – CC Approved or in-house Level 1 training.

Staff, trustees and volunteers with occasional unsupervised participant contact – Level 2 training

Staff, trustees and volunteers with a high level of participant contact (e.g. Facilitators/SGO) – Level 3

Objectives & Activities

Objectives

The objectives of Centred Horseplay are to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society.

Activities

Re-start Course – Our flagship course is usually delivered over 5 consecutive days with 1 to 1 facilitator support. We teach, rehearse and repeat key resilience skills in an intensive and challenging but fun way. All sessions take place in action with horses selected and trained to provide especially clear and easily observed feedback to participants guided by the facilitator. The course helps to develop positive habits through the following skills;

Each participant has a reflective session with the facilitator looking at their progress in each skills-based area and if successful the participant receives a certificate.

Lighter Touch Sessions – We offer top-up and taster sessions, which are 1 to 1 and can provide a lead into the Re-Start course or a top-up for participants who have completed the main course and need a little extra help.

Non-Verbal Toolbox Training – A course designed for frontline professionals, parents and carers to learn how to engage and relate to difficult clients using non-verbal tools. We teach how to accurately assess emotional status, learn to read the body rather than listen to what is being said and use non-verbal strategies to help clients become calmer and make faster progress. During this period, we ran two well supported sessions with Family First and Edge of Care teams at Gloucestershire County Council.

Family Support

We continued our successful programme offering ReStart courses involving two or more members of the at-risk family attending courses at the same time which included two family ReStarts. During the Covid-19 restrictions more YP were accompanied by parents/carers which enabled us to share our Non-Verbal strategies with direct families and have encouraged more family involvement moving forward.

Achievements & Performance

Statutory Declaration

The trustees declare that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the commission in exercising their powers or duties.

Main Achievements for the Year

The services we provide are based predominately outside, and as such, the charity has historically closed over the winter months and reopened in April. In 2021, due to re-location and the need to complete work on the facilities, the charity re-opened in May 2022. The move was hugely beneficial for the charity and its participants, we now have sole use at Shadywell Farm enabling us to be 100% flexible around our participants' needs.

During the year we received donations and contributions towards courses amounting to £22,200.

Due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions and a resignation of the former CEO, the charity reopened later than expected in 2022, nevertheless, the charity ran 18 ReStarts including two families.

During the course we work on 8 core skills that are known to lead to better life choices. Post course reviews are conducted at 2 months by the person making the original referral and we ask that they do not refer to the original referral document when completing this review.

The ReStart addresses 8 core skills: Engagement (confidence as a learner); Taking Responsibility (owning emotions and behaviour); Calmness (in difficult situations); Assertiveness (accepting and setting boundaries appropriately); Realistic Analysis & Planning (think before you act); Focus & Perseverance (working towards goals despite setbacks); Relating to others/Empathy (constructive connections); Communication & Language (emotional literacy).

We are recording a 28% average overall gain across all the above 8 points of the skill star. The following intermediate outcomes are also measure at 2 months post course:

  1. Education & Learning - 85% of participants show improvement.

Our programme has been shown to increase levels of engagement with education and/or training, we use an action learning process and the magic of the horse to get participants to engage. We are then able to teach them to become confident and effective learners in the horsemanship context.

  1. Problem Behaviours - 88% show improvement.

Our activities train people how to be calm and focused even in difficult and pressured

situations.

  1. Improved Relationships - 92% show improvement.

Participants learn, first with a horse then one another how to read others and respond appropriately. This empathy in action creates better relationships.

  1. Personal Identity - 86% show improvement.

Through the ethos learnt and practised with horses, our participants learn a greater sense of respect and self-esteem, fairness, politeness and begin to see themselves as good citizens.

Our work has a positive impact on creating stronger communities as our participants reengage with family, friends, and society as a result of improved life skills. Our course works directly on mental health through teaching and rehearsing 8 fundamental skills required for resilience and wellbeing: Calmness, Assertiveness, Focus, Planning, Empathy, Communication, Responsibility and Confidence. As an aside, the course demands physical activity, often helping participants to make the link between physical activity and mental wellbeing.

The service we provide is truly innovative and it works. We know that 8 out of every 10 young people we work with WILL do better.

Financial Review

Financial Position

During the year the Charity received unrestricted donations and course contributions of £22,200, £1,288 from the Covid-19 Job retention scheme and restricted donations of £11,591 a total of £35,079.

Facilitation of the year’s courses and course essential payments totalled £18,927. Horse costs were able to be reduced due to charity relocation over the winter months at £1,968. Staff training for new members totalled £941, essential maintenance costs were £5,509 and admin costs totalled £10,990.

The Charity also took out a bounce bank loan of £10,000 in 2020, which was paid back in full this year.

At the end of the financial year, the Charity held unrestricted funds of £12,214 and restricted funds of £5,430. The reserves will be used to fund future courses and admin expenses of the Charity.

Policy on Reserves

The Charity’s reserve policy aims to hold funds equivalent to 10 courses (£5,000) at the start of the course year. It is the charity’s policy not to hold courses if funds are forecast not to be available.

There are no deficits to report, and the trustees expect the charity continues as a going concern.
