The Ciren Self-Help Project Report of the Trustees For the Period 01 Apr 23 to 31 Mar 2024 

## **Objectives and activities** 

Ciren Self-Help Project (CSHP) was set up with three primary objects as set out in our Foundation Document: - 

- To promote and protect the physical and mental health of sufferers of depression and stress related illnesses resulting in self-harming behaviours, through the provision of support, education and practical advice. 

- To advance the education of the general public in all areas related to depression and stress related illnesses resulting in self harming behaviours. 

- The relief of negative beliefs causing sickness by providing encouragement to discover a positive self-image, ensuring courage, assertiveness and a sense of optimism and well-being, directing them away from self-harming behaviour and towards self-help. 

Our definition of a small charity is any charity, registered or un-registered, that has an income of less than £1 million per year. Our target beneficiaries are the many people in the Cirencester and surrounding areas who suffer from the above-mentioned problems who need a localised and readilyaccessed source of support 

Our vision is articulated in our Strategy and Business plan which states the following objectives: 

- 1) To build a community of support: We will encourage donors and funding charities to join our cause and build up financial resources to assure a long-term future for the Charity. 

- 2) In our first year to raise £5,000 being sufficient to move forward with engagement with approximately 30 clients 

- 3) To build better sustainability: We will strive to be sustainable, to safeguard the support we provide and to keep our services accessible and affordable. 

## **Charitable Activities in the reporting period to 31[st] March 2024** 

Following the meeting of Directors on 17[th] March 2018 when it was voted unanimously that the Charity should be wound up effective 31[st] March 2018 there have been no activities and no financial transactions of any kind and all funds have remained static since that date. As reported for the period ending 31[st] March 2023, the undistributed funds amount to £1,017. The Directors have in hand activity to unlock these moneys which continue to be frozen in a Barclays Bank account – there are many procedural restraints at present with lack of Barclays Business Managers available to set up a new account top which the frozen funds (£1,017) can be transferred for proportional redistribution back to the original donors upon eventual closure of the Charity 

## **Statement of Responsibility of the Trustees** 

Our Trustees (who are also directors of The Ciren Self-help Project for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the report of the Trustees’ and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and their application including the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. 

1 



The Ciren Self-Help Project Report of the Trustees For the Period 01 Apr 23 to 31 Mar 2024 

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are 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. 

In so far as the Trustees are aware: 

- There is no relevant information of which the charity’s independent examiner is unaware; and 

- The Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the independent examiner is aware of that information. 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31 Mar 2022 was 2 (10 in 2018). The Trustees are members of the charity, but this entitles them only to voting rights. The Trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. 

The opinion of the trustees is that the charitable company is entitled to the exemptions conferred by Section 477 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. The trustees acknowledge the following responsibilities: 

- The members have not required the company to obtain an audit of its accounts for the year in question in accordance with section 476 

- The trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for complying with the requirements of the Act with respect to accounting records and the preparation of accounts 

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small Companies’ regime 

Signed on behalf of the trustees

The Ciren Self-Help Project Report of the Trustees For the Period 01 Apr 23 to 31 Mar 2024 

## **Treasurer’s report** 

## **To the Trustees of The Ciren Self-Help Project** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the period 1[st] April to 31[st] March 2024 

This report is made solely to the trustees as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. My examination has been undertaken so that I might state to the 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 charity and the trustees as a body, for my examination, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees (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 charity 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** 

Since the charity’s gross income has not exceeded £250,000 your examiner need not be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that as a Trustee I am qualified to undertake the examination on this basis. 

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 charity 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 Ciren Self-Help Project Report of the Trustees For the Period 01 Apr 23 to 31 Mar 2024 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **For the period 01 Apr 2016 to 31 Mar 2024** 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## a) **Basis of preparation** 

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 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (August 2014) and the Companies Act 2006. 

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note. 

b) **Reconciliation with previously Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP)** 

The accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 have been applied with no restatement of comparative items required. The transition date was 1 June 2014. 

## **i) The Charity** 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page two. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. In the opinion of the Trustees there is no ultimate controlling party. The registered office, which is the same as its principal place of business is Manor Farm Cottage, Elkstone, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire GL53 9PD 

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

## **ii) Going Concern** 

The Trustees consider that despite there being a positive state of bank reserves, the charitable company has no sustainable ability to raise funds over the short and long term in order to achieve its Objectives. Accordingly, the view of the Trustees that the charity should be closed down in an orderly fashion. See the accompanying documents in Appendix 1. 

There are no key judgements that the charitable company has made which have a significant effect on the accounts. The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period which will report on the company’s closure. 

## **iii) Income** 

Income is recognised when cleared funds appear in its bank account or are cash-in-hand with the Treasurer, and any performance conditions attached to the income have been met. 

6 



The Ciren Self-Help Project Report of the Trustees For the Period 01 Apr 23 to 31 Mar 2024 

## **iv) Expenditure** 

Expenditure is accounted for on a commitment basis. Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. 

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

The charity is not registered for VAT. In common with many other charities, the Ciren SelfHelp Project’s expenses are inflated by VAT which cannot be recovered. 

iv) **Tangible Fixed Assets** 

The Charity has none, and depreciation charges do not apply in the accounts. 

- v) **Debtors** 

There are no debtors, we operate on a cleared funds basis for all donations, as a policy we provide no goods services on a paid-for basis 

- vi) **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash is the only funding we have, at the bank or in hand – we do transact with any other monetary instruments 

## vii) **Creditors and Provisions** 

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. 

The charity only has cash and uses no other financial instruments. 

## viii) **Pensions** 

The charity has no employees, and therefore does not operate any form of Pension scheme.
