The Trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act) present their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting document, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 published in October 2019. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **Purpose and Aims** 

The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes. 

In setting plans and priorities for areas of work, the trustees have referred to the guidance from the Charity Commission on the provision of public benefit, in accordance with section 17 of the Charities Act 2011. In particular, the trustees consider how activities will continue to meet the objectives they have set and focus on the services which will deliver the greatest benefit to the most vulnerable of the potential service users. In delivering these services we clearly identify, and measure where possible, the benefits that have been delivered. 

We monitor progress to ensure that benefits are accruing as planned, and to learn any lessons that can be fed back into the planning and delivery cycle. Throughout this report, and particularly in the Headline Outcomes and Achievements sections, we note the numbers and categories of service users who have benefitted. 

Our work benefits society as a whole, as well as the direct service users, by our activities in support of families and groups which assist the reintegration of service

users into wider society. In doing so, the trustees believe that they are meeting the public benefit requirement, as set out in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Our core purpose remains as follows:** 

To provide opportunities and choices for individuals, families and communities to create meaningful and sustainable change in their wellbeing. 

Our **Objectives** are described in our governing documents as being: 

To promote the relief of sickness and the protection and preservation of good health of persons in the area of benefit who are misusing, or at risk of misusing, such substances as alcohol, illicit and prescribed drugs, in particular but not exclusively by the provision of information, advice, counselling and support. 

To promote the protection and preservation of good health and the advancement of the education of the public within local communities; to facilitate, support and sustain positive change for those of all ages affected by substance use, multiple and complex health and social care needs and their families, by the provision of information and advice concerning the prevention of the misuse of alcohol, illicit and prescribed drugs and other substances which are capable of misuse in a manner harmful to health. 

These values drive our strategic and operational work and guide how we behave internally and externally to the organisation. The people and families we work with are at the heart of our organisation. 

The organisation is committed to our Values which are as follows: 

## **People Matter** 

## **Everyone can Change** 

## **We care about doing things well** 

In order to meet our charitable objects and our core purpose, our activities are structured in to the following services, delivered both in West and South Yorkshire through a wide variety of income sources: 

- Alcohol and Complex Needs support 

- Children, young people and family support 

- Recovery Support 

- Training and Enterprise 

We have continued to use the 5 Ways to Wellbeing across the organisation, both internally and externally, to promote the well-being of everyone who works for us, volunteers for us or receives our service.

Introduction
Vicki Beere,
CEO Project 6
Whatan extraordinaryyearand
what a remarkable role Project 6
played in supporting ourcommunities
throughout it. Weare nowover
500 days intothe pandemic and
the impact on us will befelt for
a decade or more.

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited

Trustees, annual report
for the year ended 31st March 2021
Our first 100 days were spent moving at
incredible pace to deliver most of oiir interventions online,
getting equipment and technology out to staff and the
people who use our services and learning how to exist in
this new, scary and often isolated world. Simultaneously
we worked out how to keep some of our face-to-face services
going safely. Working initially with no guidance and no
PPE; then reviewing the huge rafts of guidance sometimes
daily and sometimes weekly to ensure we remained safe.
All whilst constantly checking what our communities
needed and seconding staff to work with other organisations
who needed the resource such as externally the Salvation
Army and internally our Pathways crisis service.
Our internal focus became monitoring
&nd managing staff wellbeing. We developed all kinds
of ways of connecting over this time from book clubs,
to creative writing lessons, desert island discs, yoga and
woodland WhatsApp walks. Staff were supported to access
psychological first aid courses and we held regular wellbeing
check-ins across the organisation, even producing a book!
Slowly we started to look up and out; needing to continue
to manage a slow opening back up, balancing the needs
of the people who use our services with ever changing
guidance and several more local and national lockdowns.

In the midst of this we also;
Merged with our friends Doncaster Alcohol
Services and started to build networks and
partnerships in Doncaster.
Developed new partnerships - especially around
our NtAST Team in Keighley and Bradford, with
colleagues in Sheffleld via the VCSE COVID Hub
and, later in the year, with the Modality Partnership
delivering much needed and valuable vaccine support
in our Keighley Community.
Generated a significant amount of COVID income
which allowed us to fLII much needed gaps in services
during the first wave, develop our Training services
and create a springboard for new essential services
such as Doncaster Pathways.
Reviewed our values and strategic objectives to make
them fit for a post-COVID world through working
with the people who use our services, our staff and
our Board.
Revamped our entire training offer, refocusing on
becoming a genuinely trauma informed organisation
and doing the work that comes with it.
Worked on our response to equality, diversity and
inclusion, which included recruiting and supporting
a new and far more diverse board, setting targets for
monitoring our EDI data internally and externally
plus embarking on various learning opportunities
as individuals and teains.

Operationally we were incredible. I am
extraordinarily proud of everyone @Project 6, our staff ,
volunteers and the people who come and are brave enough
to walk through our doors for some support.
We lost some really great people this year,
not to COVID, but as Michael Marmot would say deaths
of despair; overdoses, pneumonia from long term drug use
and far too many suicides. Every one avoidable and a tragedy.
We supported 8,233 people thiq year.
At one point we were running 40 online groups a week,
plus delivering 6 services face to face. We launched new
projects, developed existing ones, sadly closed some down,
built incredible spaces, made new partnerships, engaged
in away days and supported each other all the Tr￿ay. An
amazing organisation. Thank you all who supported us.

I think I can safely say that 2021 was
indeed the 'extraordinary year, that Vicki writes about
in her introduction to this year's report. COVID-19 had
a huge impaet on everything. Levels of need increased
and some of our services helped far more people than we
ever envisaged. The organisation made significant moves
towards delivering interventions remotely. Staff adapted
to working for long periods from home. Thankfully there
was short term funding available to bridge some of the gaps.
At a dif ficult time for everyone, the org-
anisation and its staff stepped up to the mark. Services
continued to be delivered. Face-to-face work for the
most vulnerable was maintained. Contract targets
were iKiet aiid exL'eeded. New way&) of wurkiIig' einerged.
Fresh partnerships were forged. Additional funding was
obtained. The Project 6 ship stayed upright and on course.
None of the above would have been possible
without the commitment and dedication of staff and
volunteers at the coal face. Neither would we have steered
a path through the pandemic without the leadership and
adaptability of our senior management team. As always,
a special mention goes to Vicki, our admirable Chief Exe-
cutive, who calmly and capably managed the organisation
through demanding times.

As a Board we are committed to planned
growth of the organisation in Yorkshire, whether that
be in our current localities or into neighbouring areas.
This year we welcomed Doncaster Alcohol Service into
Project 6. The merger means that we now work across three
localities, which brings both opportunity and challenge.
It is a constant battle to access new sources
of funding and replace others as they come to an end. The
income generation arm of the organisation continues to
flourish and we are very hopeful of fresh opportunities in
mainstream drug and alcohol services in the near future.
Despite the uncertainties of the funding environment,
Project 6 remains flnancially sound. We have sufficient
reserves both to insulate us against temporary setbacks
and to use in developing the organisation to remain fit for
purpose in an ever-changing world.
The Board itself underwent signiflcant
changes this year. Two long-standing members left and
my thanks go to Peter and Enid for their years of support
for the organisation. We took on a new member, Sara,
from the DAS Board. We mounted a targeted recruitment
campaign to attract new members to diversify the Board and
were very pleased to welcome Jane, Joanne, Jae and Julie.

Although the enlarged Board has never met
in person. only over Zoom, we have managed to gel together
and to operate effectively. With the help of David Harries,
an organisational consultant, we have led a refresh of
Project 6's values, reviewed our governance systems and
developed our medium-term strategic objectives. The
Board is well placed to oversee the strategic direction
of the organisation.
On behalf of the Board, I commend this
Impact Report, which shows how much great work was
done by so many. I also offer thanks to all those individuals
and organisations that have supported Project 6 in
different ways, whether that be financially, practically
or with tlieir goodwill.
We know about long COVID as a physical
condition but we are also aware that the psychological
and social rarllifications will come to the fore and be long
lasting. Project 6 has a big part to play in providing
responses in the communities we serve. I look forward
with confidence and with hope too.

Emma'sstory
Emma had been using cocaine for
niany years in a regular binge pattern. She had been
accessing Narcotics Anonymous (NA) & Cocaine
Anonymous (CA) regularly for 18 months but con-
tinued to have regular lapses. Emma has said she
fell pregnant because she was under the influence
of substances at the time, and though it was
consensual she wouldn't otherwise have planned
the pregnancy, so it was quite a shock to her.
Following disclosure at her maternity
booking appointment, Emnia was referred to
Pro je.c,t 6's Multi-agency Antenatal Service (MAS)
in November 202U at 12 wecks prpgn&ncyy wILen
information was provided to her around the risks
to the unborn child of continued use.
As it was difficult for Emma to
travel to Keighley to attend the MAS clinic, she
was supported by fortnightly telephone siipport,
and joint f ace-to-face appointments Wlth the MAS
worker and her midwife, at her GP practice. Though
she was delighted at becoming pregnant, Emrtka
found hp.r change in circumstances difficult to adjust
to and she began to lose lliotivation to address her
substance use during her first trimester. She dropped
out of her NA and CA groups and the fortnightly
urine drug screens conducted by her midwife found
her testing positive f or cocaiDe 3 times in the first
months of pregnancy. The MAS worker consulted
with the MAS manager and the midwife, who con-
sulted with their Saf eguarding Of flcer, and it was
deemed that there were enough protective factors
in pl&ee that Emma did not require referral to social
services at that stage but tliat this COTktinued
to be monitored.
31

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited
operating as Project 6
Trustees, annual report
for the year ended 31st March 2021
Thp multi-agency nature of the
illtervention ensured that risk was well managed.
Into her second trimester, Emma was able to
engage well in reflective discussion around her
lapses, and the MAS worker carried out Relapse
Prevention work, using solution-focussed and
strengths-based approaches, and through
collaborative SMART-goal setting. As Emma
progressed through her pregnancy. she beearne
keen to achieve and maintain abstinence. Emma
developed a good rapport with the MAS worker
and maintained good engagement with the support.
For the final 5 months of her pregnancy, Emma
did not use cocaine at all and all her urine Ilrug
screens were rp.turncd negative. Her son was born
in May 2021, full term at 39 weeks* at a very
healthy weight, and mother and baby were well
enough to return straight home, requiring
no time on the Special Care Baby Unit.
Since giving birth Emma has
continiied to remain abstinent, and has returned
to her CA support) attending a weekly group and
is continuing with fortnightly telephone support
from the MAS worker. Emma has described the
support shp received from the MAS service:
"It's really helped having someone to talk to about
it [my substance use] where I can be completely
honest and have no shame about it. You [the MAS
worker] never judge me and you've kept on with
me even when I was relapsing. It's been brilliant
to know that you [the MAS worker] and [my
midwife] are both there working away together
to help me cause its meant that [my son] has
arrived safely) and he's the love of my life"

## **Partners and Supporters:** 

## **Acknowledgements** 

Ethical collaboration and partnership working is central to our approach to ensuring the best outcomes for the people who use our services. This year partnerships have been more important than ever, as organisations came together to provide a rapid response to the needs of their local communities. 

## **Supporters** 

us in numerous ways. A special thanks to all our volunteers, to FareShare, Kid Acne, Glenn Hustler, Oscar Humphries, and Keighley Rotary Club for their continuing support. We were able to counteract the worst effects of the pandemic through the funders who quickly galvanised Covid-centred funding, including Martin Lewis and Police and Crime Commissioners. 

Outside of the pandemic, thank you to our grant funders who continue to believe in classroom at our Keighley Devonshire Street premises. Our gratitude to Keighley Town Council and the Kirkby Foundation for their generous support for this initiative. 

Thanks everyone who fundraised and donated to our work. Everything we receive is used to enhance the delivery of front-line services.

## **Covid Related Partnerships** 

The onset of the pandemic and lockdown led to the rapid developments of both strategic and operational partnerships. 

Local Area Response and VCS Leadership teams were set up in Keighley and Sheffield and attended by our CEO and Operations Director. 

We began working with new partners, including the Salvation Army, Mosques in Keighley and the Army. We made new links in Sheffield, supporting organisations like Manor & Castle and Zest. Operationally, staff were redeployed to multi-agency emergency food and crisis pathways.  New partnerships also included our MAST Team; the Sheffield VCSE COVID Hub and Modality, delivering much needed vaccine support in Keighley. 

## **Plans for the future** 

It's probably never been as uncertain, and while it's our long-term goal to work ourselves out of business, it feels as though that is further away than ever. COVID has shone a great light on health inequalities, but our systems seem to be suffering from total inertia in taking any action. We are still operating under the historic legal framework of the Misuse of Drugs Act, which was 50 years old this year and causes more problems than it solves. 

34 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

for the year ended 31st March 2021 

We know that the need for our services will only increase over the next few years and that the impact of the pandemic will probably still be being felt in 5-10 years. What's less sure is what the external environment will look like. We are in the middle of a huge system change in health, local authorities are feeling the economic squeeze and the world feels more volatile than at any other point in the previous two decades. 

However, there are some glimmers of hope. There are small amounts of short-term money coming into the sector - which may indicate a seed change, and health and care systems are looking to the VCSE to support them and make the left shift into investing in prevention and resourcing community organisations. The Black report has shone a light on the impact of 10 years of austerity on our sector, which has shown a sector damaged more than any other by austerity. It's important that we don't just use any extra funding to shore our broken system up - we must build back better, invest in the right things which include decent harm reduction services, proper psychosocial interventions and recovery services. We can't prescribe ourselves out of substance use, trauma and those experiencing multiple disadvantages. We have to start designing and delivering services with people with all levels of lived experience at the centre of them. Anything else is merely rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic. That is not what Project 6 intends to do! We intend to challenge this and shout as loud as we can for the people who use and need our services, and for their voices to be heard. 

## **Business Planning** 

During this period, following the initial impact of COVID, Project 6 has undertaken a review of our values and strategic objectives, which inform our organisational and operational objectives and formulate a risk register. The plan is reviewed on a quarterly basis, the targets are RAG rated and all reds/exceptions are discussed at Performance Management Meetings and Board Meetings. 

Our new strategic objectives are as follows: 

1. We will put the needs of people and communities who use our services at the heart of our work 

2. We will position Project 6 as experts in the field 

3. We will strengthen and improve our internal systems and processes in order to provide the best possible services 

4. We will become a learning organisation 

5. We will provide a flexible funding structure 

35 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

for the year ended 31st March 2021 

We are working to achieve our new objectives, and have developed a set of actions that will drive this, all of which are aligned across the organisation from the Board to the Sub Committees, to the Senior Leadership Team and their individual work plane. 

Our organisational objectives were structured around the areas of service detailed above and all targets were managed, monitored and achieved through the use of Framework and the quarterly Performance Management Meetings. Our performance and outcomes remain exceptional, despite the pandemic. 

The charity has achieved these exceptional outcomes despite operating in a very challenging external environment of COVID, austerity and uncertainty. We remain focused on delivering excellent outcomes for our beneficiaries and achieving the charities aims at all times. 

## **Financial** 

The results for the year are shown on page 53. These show that there has been a slight reduction in total income from £2.19m to £2.16m, despite a challenging external environment for the sector. 

The merger of Doncaster Alcohol Services into Project 6 has continued to allow us to build on the delivery strengths and expertise across South and West Yorkshire, whilst ensuring the cost effectiveness of our core team and facilities. 

Unfortunately, we were unsuccessful in retendering for our Specialist Mentoring services and this transferred to another charity on the 31st of March 2020. This left us needing to review our Young People s Provision in Sheffield. 

As in previous years our biggest expense has been Staff costs. At £1.4m (a reduction from £1.5m in 2020), staff costs account for 73% of our total expenditure. 

During this financial period we have made a surplus of £308,470 (2020: £206,454). 

We achieved a surplus of £88,422 on our ongoing activities; the balance relates to the 

Our principal funding sources remain as follows, and they fund our core services as detailed above. 

36 



## Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6

- Partnerships including the delivery of the New Directions Substance Misuse Contract in Keighley 

- Airedale and Wharfedale Clinical Commissioning Group 

- National Lottery Community Fund: this includes 3 Reaching Community grants 

- Grant funders such as Comic Relief, Children in Need, Cooperative Foundation and Garfield Weston 

- COVID related funds for delivering COVID related services 

In addition to these, we are committed to the generation of earned income through the sale of specific expertise in the form of training. 

We have multiple funding streams across a diverse range of services, which provides us with a high level of sustainability.  Each of our service areas has a substantial income and this provides us with some stability and a base from which to grow. During this year, we have continued our aim to grow a sustainable and flexible funding structure through the diversification of income streams. 

More information is available in our Income Generation Plan and our Training Business Plan. 

The Trustees have taken note of the directive made by the Fundraising Regulator and consider that they are compliant.  The charity has no contracts or other arrangements with professional fund-raisers or commercial participators, and had received no complaints about fundraisers apparently acting on behalf of the charity. 

Fundraising activities may be undertaken by staff, volunteers or service users. The charity management are always made aware of these activities, and ensure that proper vulnerable people.

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6

## **Reserves:** 

The Reserves held by the charity at the end of this reporting period are: 

- Total: £1,215,004 

- Restricted: £253,289 

- Designated: £118,000 

- Unrestricted General: £843,715 Free reserves: £495,047 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The past 18 months have been a challenge for financial planning and the Trustees are pleased to report that the substantial levels of reserves built up in recent years, together with a further addition to unrestricted reserves arising from the merger with Doncaster Alcohol Service, have given flexibility to cope well with the pandemic.  The expenditure (about £450,000) has been maintained. This would enable the organisation to meet its legal and moral commitments for a defined period of time. 

Without wishing to disturb this prudent baseline commitment, the Trustees have been developing a more risk-based approach to utilising the reserves for the benefit of the organisation and the public. Low returns on financial investments mean that reserves held in bank accounts are not contributing to future benefits. 

As can be seen in note 15 to the accounts, two designated funds amounting to £281,638 proved to be largely not needed for the specified purposes and these have been replaced by commitments to three further projects. These projects are intended risk-based approach allows that these projects can be funded effectively as capital developments without expecting any immediate returns, and the Trustees would be able to support a number of similar projects should the need or opportunity arise. 

84% of the income in these accounts has come through restricted funds, usually contracts to provide services, and such contracts are becoming increasingly prescriptive, meaning that a very small proportion of the income is available for discretionary spending by Project 6.  Thus, in order to deliver services to the high standard to which the organisation aspires, it may be necessary for the Trustees to 

38 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

for the year ended 31st March 2021 

authorise running a deficit on a service or project by allowing a deficit budget, subsidised from unrestricted reserves. The level of unrestricted reserves makes it possible to accept this risk given that the service users are the ultimate beneficiaries, and small deficits are sustainable in the short term. 

## **Investment Policy** 

The trustees invest the surplus liquid funds in short-term, interest-bearing accounts to maximise funds in a liquid form. We will undertake an investment review during 2021/22. 

## **Going Concern** 

We do not have any going concern worries at the moment. Despite 2021 being extremely challenging in terms of delivery, we have been able to continue to provide support to users of our services, either through online methods or through socially distanced one-to-one support. Our existing funders have been very supportive of our use of different methods of engagement. We have not furloughed any staff, as all staff continue to deliver, albeit using different means of communication / places of delivery. 

Our in in terms of core costs, and we are working strategically to achieve some longer-term solutions to the challenges faced by our sector across all of the areas we work in. 

On this basis our forecast turnover for the year 2021/22 remains unchanged. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 3rd September 1997 and registered as a charity on 23rd June 1989. The company was established under a memorandum of association, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its articles of association and its charitable constitution. 

39 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

## for the year ended 31st March 2021 

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 31st March 2021 was 6 (2020: 6). The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. 

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity, any expenses reclaimed from the charity are set out in note 8 to the accounts. 

The charity is managed by a Board of Trustees who meet regularly as a full Board and in sub-committee groups to set and monitor the strategic direction of the charity, steer the planning of the organisation and manage its work and risk. 

There are two key roles at the top of the decision-making chain within Project 6 Chair of Trustees and the Chief Executive. The Chair is responsible for representing the views of the Board in their role as charity governors, along with ensuring a good trustee induction and professional development.  Day-to-day management and leadership responsibilities of Project 6 are delegated to the Chief Executive, who is named as Vicki Beere. The Chief Executive will ensure good information flows between The Board, the Senior Leadership Team and Project 6 projects.  The Chair also provides support and supervision to the Chief Executive on behalf of the Board. Staff are employed to 

The roles of Chair and Chief Executive will never be exercised by the same individual and a Chief Executive will not go on to become Chair of Project 6. The division of responsibilities between The Chair and Chief Executive will be clearly established and agreed by The Board. Project 6 has a comprehensive Governance Handbook which deals with all aspects of Trustees, including recruitment, induction, training and roles/responsibilities. 

## **Recruitment and Induction of Trustees** 

The Board will ensure that Board recruitment adheres to the spirit and the letter of Project 6 values and Code of Conduct. This includes actively promoting diversity and equal opportunities in the appointment of Board members. The Board will actively seek Trustees from areas that add significant value to Project 6 and review current skills through an annual skills audit. The Board will strive to increase the breadth and diversity of experience that can in turn increase its effectiveness. Appointment to the board will 

40 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

for the year ended 31st March 2021 

follow the processes set out in the Governance Handbook and include reference to the appropriate governing documents. 

Board members will undertake an induction to the organization which will include completing a skills audit, reviewing the annual report and previous accounts, reviewing the business plan, completing a trustee declaration form and conflicts of interest register, meeting with the CEO and spending the minimum of an afternoon with members of the wider organisation. 

## **Remuneration policy for key management personnel** 

Key Management Personnel are paid at the following scales. 

## CEO: £48,000 Director of Operations/Development/HR/Finance:  £40,000 

Pay grades and remuneration are agreed in the first instance by the Finance sub group then by the Board. As a consequence of the merger, there has been a considerable piece of work undertaken to review our terms and conditions. A new policy has been agreed by the Board of Trustees and all staff have been consulted with. More details are available in our policy handbook. 

## **Risk management** 

Project 6 has a robust approach to Risk Management.  Risk is identified and managed through our Annual Business Plan and quarterly Business Plan reviews, which feed in to our Risk Register. Our Risk register is a live document and is structured according to the domains suggested by the charity commission. 

1. Governance 

2. Operational 

3. Financial 

4. External 

5. Compliance with Law and Regulations 

41 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

for the year ended 31st March 2021 

Regular Senior Leadership meetings, plus quarterly reviews at Board Meetings, HR / Finance/ Quality and Performance Sub group meetings all review these risks. These reviews include a review of the following: 

- Our Service Delivery Targets, which are monitored via Framework 

- Our Organisational and Strategic Objectives, which are monitored via the quarterly reporting process 

- HR issues, which are monitored via Perform 

Exceptions are identified, added to the risk register and reviewed quarterly, or more frequently as appropriate, at Board Meetings. 

The Board, alongside the Senior Leadership Team, are therefore able to identify and consider major risks to the organisation and be satisfied that systems and procedures are established to manage the risks. 

## **Key risks are currently considered to be:** 

- The ongoing risks around income, sustainability and delivery around COVID and the recovery from COVID 

- Risks around managing staff wellbeing and operations in the midst of a global pandemic 

- The continued and increased effects of austerity on funders and commissioners, especially funding that comes from the Local Authorities 

- There will be an increased risk to public sector funding as a consequence of a No-deal Brexit 

- Increased demand on services with reducing funding 

- The diminishing pots of funding from grant funders and increased competition in a very crowded market place dominated by large nationals.

We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees Annual report, other than the financial statements and our Auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information within the Trustees Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

   - Report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Directors' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors' Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of Directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the Directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Directors' Report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report.

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees' responsibilities statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below . 

- The engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

48 



to the Members of 

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charitable company through discussions with directors and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the charity's sector; we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charitable company, including health and safety and safeguarding legislation; we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and a review of legal expenses; identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by; 

   - making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and 

   - considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations. 

- To address the risks of fraud through management bias and override controls, we: performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 

agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; 

- reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and discussions with senior management regarding relevant regulations and fees. 

49 



to the Members of 

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of correspondence. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/OurWork/Audit/Audit-and-assurance/Standards-and-guidance/Standardsandguidancefor-auditors/Auditors-responsibilities-for-audit/Description-of-auditors-responsibilitiesfor-audit.aspx. This description forms part of our Auditor's report. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited is a charitable company in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements.  The 3 of these financial statements. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) published October 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.  These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## **1.2 Company status** 

The company is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page 2. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company. 

## **1.3 Going concern** 

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company s ability to continue as a going concern, as explained in the Trustees report. The Trustees have made no key judgements which have a significant effect on the accounts. 

54 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

The Trustees have considered the impact of COVIDactivities, workforce and supply chain, as well as the wider economy. Whilst it is not considered practical to accurately assess the duration and extent of the disruption, the Trustees are confident that they have in place plans to deal with any financial losses and cash deficits that may arise.  They will continue to monitor the impact on income and take appropriate action as necessary. 

The Board have prepared forecasts of income and expenditure and cash flow for 12 months from authorising these financial statements which shows that they have sufficient reserves to be able to continue for the foreseeable future. The Board will continue to monitor the impact on income and take appropriate action as necessary. The Trustees therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of preparation for these financial statements. 

## **1.4 Income** 

All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either the company is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the company that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the company has been notified of the executor's intention to make a distribution. 

Where legacies have been notified to the company, or the company is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. 

Donated services or facilities are recognised when the company has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the company of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time is not recognised. Refer to the Trustees' report for more information about their contribution. 

55 



Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the company which is the amount the company would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and 

Costs of raising funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

Charitable activities are costs incurred on the company's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the company apportioned to charitable activities. 

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised. 

A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities incorporating income and expenditure account. 

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases: 

|Leasehold improvements|10%|straight line or length of lease|
|---|---|---|
|Freehold improvements|10%|straight line|
|Fixtures and fittings|25%|straight line|
|Freehold property|2%|straight line|
|**Interest receivable**|||



Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. 

## **1.7 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered.  Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **1.8 Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Airedale Voluntary Drug and Alcohol Agency Limited operating as Project 6 

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **1.9 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges. 

## **1.10 Financial instruments** 

The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.  Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **1.11 Pensions** 

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year. 

## **1.12 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **1. Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **1.13 Accounting estimates and areas of judgment** 

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 

## **1.14 Employee benefits** 

The cost of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense. 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received. 

## **1.15 Charity combination** 

The assets, liabilities and undertaking of Doncaster Alcohol Service were transferred to the charity, at nil consideration, on 1 July 2020. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) this is in substance a gift and the net asset value at the date of transfer has been shown as a donation in the Statement of Financial Activities.
