Para 1.17 | The objects of the organisation are: 1) To act as a resource for young people between ages 5 – 35 years living in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of physical, educational and other activities as a means of: (a) advancing in life and helping young people by developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals; (b) advancing education; (c) relieving unemployment; (d) providing recreational and leisure time activity in the interests of social welfare for people who have need by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, poverty or social and economic circumstances with a view to improving the conditions of life of such persons. 2) 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. For the purpose of this clause 'socially excluded' means being excluded from society, or parts of society, as a result of one of more of the following factors: unemployment; financial hardship; youth; ill health (physical or mental); substance abuse or dependency including alcohol and drugs; poor educational or skill/s attainment; relationship and family breakdown; crime (either as a victim of crime, as an individual at |

activities, projects or services
identified in the accounts. This is delivered by a strong, diverse, and
experienced team operating throughout
Cornwall. Our work builds on forming a
relationship with the young person and
addressing the needs and concerns
highlighted in the referral document.
The length of support varies with each
individual - each young person has targets set
with them.
For example, we have worked with a young
person for 5 years throughout their secondary
education, but for another as little as 4 weeks
in order to overcome more manageable
issues.
Issues we support with are overcoming a lack
of self-confidence, self-esteem, improving
health and mental well-being, physical and
mental abuse, and reintegrating into an
educational setting. We also support and
signpost those young people who are
struggling with drug and alcohol misuse.
We aim to help prevent the young people
from becoming socially excluded within their
own families, peers, and communities. We
work with communities, including schools
and colleges, to partner with them to
promote public safety and reintegration for
the young people.

Achievements and performance
During 2024 White Gold Cornwall supported over 287 young people via funded referrals and 20 referrals funded by White Gold Summary of the main Para 1.20 Cornwall, these are young people and young achievements of the charity, adults throughout Cornwall. This year we identifying the difference the have seen the number of referrals received charity’s work has made to increase by a larger margin than we have in the circumstances of its our previous years, with 150 referrals in 2023, beneficiaries and any wider it is a large increase. The type of referrals benefits to society as a received have been largely due to an whole. increase in young people needing support with their mental health challenges. Again, we have seen an increase in referrals with no access to funding. As a growing charity we have been fortunate to have been able to fund such referrals by donations, fundraising and grants, enabling all that need help to receive it. Due to the increase in referrals, we have strengthened our team of experienced engagement workers working throughout Cornwall, from Plymouth to Penzance. With the increase in our workforce, we have been able to support throughout the County and we have more flexibility to manage this. We are always actively seeking to recruit new Trustees. In November 2024 we appointed a new finance officer as well as a new operational manager to assist the team due to the increase in referrals being received as a charity.

We are still affiliated to Local Giving as our

We continue to partner with organisations
such as Cornwall Community Foundation

the charity with varying opportunities for
funding and grants. This has been a lifeline
for those young people who are referred to us
without funding.
In 2024 we received grant funding for IT

received a large donation in January 2024.
This, along with other generous donations
has given the charity a generous amount of

White Gold Cornwall Foundation
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of White Gold Cornwall Foundation Charity registration number 1169622
For the year ended 31 December 2024
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of White Gold Cornwall Foundation (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2024 as set out on pages 2 to 11.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees, 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 charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of 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
Since the charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which give me cause to believe:
the accounting records were not kept in respect of White Gold Cornwall Foundation as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
the accounts do not accord with the accounting records; or the accounts do not comply with the accounting 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.

Notes
(forming part of the financial statements)
1 Basis of preparation
1.1 Basis of Accounting
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (September 2015) and the Charities Act 2011.
White Gold Cornwall Foundation constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the charity continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
1.3 Change of accounting policy
The accounts present a true and fair view and the accounting policies adopted are those outlined in note 2.
1.4 Changes to accounting estimates
No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period.
1.5 Material prior year errors
No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period.
2 Accounting policies
Incoming resources
Income is included on the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources, and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Resources expended
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Notes

2 Accounting policies (continued)
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
The unrestricted fund has arisen through general fundraising, unrestricted donations and surpluses from pursuing the charity's objectives.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.
Operating leases
Rental charges are charged in the statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
