CP Teens UK Trustees Annual Report
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The purposes of the charity, as set out in its governing document are the promotion of social inclusion among young people aged 10 to 25 years old with physical disabilities, who are socially excluded from society, or parts of society, because of their disability. To provide help, support and advice for young people with physical disabilities and their families. To provide workshops, forums, advocacy and general support along with recreational facilities and opportunities in the interest of social welfare and improving conditions of life.
Statement of trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust deed. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Throughout 2024, we have worked extremely hard to ensure that the objectives have been met and that our work has been for the public benefit. Despite having to take an enforced semi-hiatus period due to our troubles with our social media platforms, we have continued to deliver both in-person and online events & activities to cater for all and remain accessible.
Due to having a semi-hiatus period, we have taken time to review our services and delivery, and therefore, we have not delivered as many events and initiatives in 2024 as we usually would during the period of a year .
In writing this report, the Trustees have had to consider the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.
In 2024, CP Teens UK has:
- Delivered in-person events & initiatives catering for a range of interests. All of our events & initiatives are aimed at bringing young people with physical disabilities together in a social & supportive environment where they feel included and part of a network. In 2024, we delivered:
o A social day in Sheffield with bowling & a meal
-
A canal trip and social in Sheffield
-
The CP Teens UK Annual Sponsored Wobble (see below)
-
A 10th Anniversary celebration party for 20 service users who have
-
contributed significantly/been heavily involved with CP Teens UK over the past 10-years.
-
Delivered our popular Chit & Chat initiative; an online social initiative where youngsters from across the UK join virtually for an hour of socialising, chat and fun. Chit & Chat enables youngsters to join in & get involved from wherever they are. Sometimes travel can be problematic for youngsters with physical disabilities & their families, so delivering online makes our charity & services accessible. Youngsters with physical disabilities also often struggle with confidence, so joining in from home in the first instance has shown to provide many youngsters with the confidence to then go on to attend our in-person events & initiatives.
-
The Sponsored Wobble - a 5k accessible challenge through Chatsworth providing the opportunity for youngsters & families to come together, and an opportunity to raise money for CP Teens UK.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
CP Teens UK is a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation). The charity is controlled by its governing document and its Board of Trustees.
The appointment of trustees follows the procedure outlined in the charity’s governing document. The Board of Trustees follow and adhere to the procedure. One third of the trustees stands down on an annual basis and are re-elected by the charity’s members (i.e. the trustees).
New trustees undergo a formal induction process; they are provided with the charity’s mission, aims and objectives and are provided with a full insight into the charity’s work. New trustees are also provided with the charity’s policies and code of conducts. All prospective trustees are DBS checked prior to successfully obtaining a role on the Board.
When considering the co-option and recruitment of trustees, the Board has regard to the requirement for ensuring that there is a balance of knowledge and expertise to govern the charity effectively. The Board also is careful to balance the number of parents of young people with disabilities to the number of people who are not parents of young people with disabilities.

- 9 -
CP Teens UK Notes to the Accounts
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.
Research and development
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.
Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.
All exchange differences are considered in arriving at net income/expenditure.
Leased assets
Where the charity enters 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. If lease incentives are received to enter 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.
