engage with those organisations through whom the charity works, which,
in the view of the Trustees, complies with the guidance issued by the
Charity Commission on public benefit.
Our main activities have been providing pastoral care services. We
partner with organisations to help them create an environment of holistic
well-being that facilitates positive mental health for the people within their
care and responsibility, supporting individuals within those organisations in
times of bereavement, work and home-life stress, personal and/or
community crisis. Our Chaplaincy, Listening and Well-being services have
provided a mix of informal, relationship-building support and more formal,
appointment-based services, to provide a range of access points to the
individuals needing support.
We are embedded in many work and community settings making a
positive difference to adults, young people and children. As a confidential,
independent, listening ear, we provide emotional, mental health and/or
spiritual support as a one-off or on a continuing basis. We also facilitated
listening and reflective sessions for small groups in a number of our
Partner Organisations.
Organisations who are partnered with us, for whom we provide one or
more of our services, include Hospices, Sports Clubs, Businesses and
Engineering, South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue, Schools including 6thform,
GP Practices, Specialist Charities. Our services are for staff, patients,
family members, students, adults and children dependent on the
organisation context.
In addition, we provided Training not only for our volunteers, but also for
individual beneficiaries and organisations wanting to access our Listening
and well-being approach as well as our Chaplaincy training.| ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** March **2012** **TAR** 3 You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. Section D Achievements and performance March **2012** **TAR** 4 Section D Achievements and performance **Summary of the main** In this financial year our team of volunteers and staff completed over **achievements of the charity** 3,000 formal listening appointments and 1300 significant conversations to **during the year** over 2400 direct beneficiaries, plus a huge number of contacts/brief chats and a wider number of people attending events which we led and/or participated in, e.g. Hospice Light Up a Life Services; funerals and Remembrance events; meals, memorials, celebrations. In addition to these ongoing partnership relationships, we also responded to requests for Crisis Support, providing Listening appointments and significant conversations to an additional 27 beneficiaries. This year saw a development of our Children’s Services with the growth of our Sibling Service for children with neuro-diverse siblings, our Bereavement and Separation Service, and the introduction of our Transition Service from Year 6 to Year 7 with 20 students benefiting in our pilot project. _“I’m happy to have someone to talk to so I don’t have to worry about it anymore.”_ To facilitate this growth, we recruited 3 additional P/T Children’s Listeners and created a P/T Children’s Lead role. Our PCN Listening services grew with the addition of a new PCN (4 surgeries) and the introduction of Calmly Create, an art wellbeing group for patients, a bereavement group and a pilot project making wellbeing calls to patients identified as particularly vulnerable. Our involvement with all our Partner Organisations developed with the introduction of staff remembrance events and home visits for one of the Hospices, an additional women’s Aid project, helping to launch a Midnight Memory walk, attending Fire Fighters training and graduation events, writing wellbeing articles for sports programmes. In addition, and as part of, providing the above services we delivered the following training events, developing the skills of our volunteers, as well as individuals from other community groups, to enhance their ability to support others who are experiencing difficulties. 30 people trained in Listening Skills (levels 1, 2 and 3) 4 people trained in Chaplaincy Skills Our Co-CEOs also spoke at a number of events on the importance of listening in different life scenarios in addition to writing articles on different aspects of wellbeing and strategies for different life situations. We also delivered a series of Wellbeing modules for our volunteers on Supporting Mental Health, Listening in a Crisis and Delivering a Holistic Approach. In 2023, all of our staff successfully completed MHFA England’s training and are registered Mental Health First Aiders to supplement our core Listening, Chaplaincy and Wellbeing Training. ## **Section E Financial review** March **2012** **TAR** 5 ## **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** To build reserves where possible in order to cover contingencies, building on the low level of reserves we have been able to create so far using 6 months as a target reserve amount. **Details of any funds materially in deficit** None ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); We are grateful to the Trusts and individual Donors who have given funding this year to enable us to continue and grow our services.

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. Signed on behalf of the charity's trustees C. Booth Trustee 24 September 2024 Page 2 **South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service Independent Examiners Report** ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service** I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service for the year ended 31 March 2024. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** As 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 by being a qualified member of F.M.A.A.T. I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or - the financial statements do not accord with those records; or - the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities charitable activities and services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. - Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. - Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs. - Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. ## **Taxation** The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. ## **Freehold investment property** Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. ## **Stocks** Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market. ## **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.

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. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into 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. ## **Pension costs** The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds. ## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services** All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.

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. Signed on behalf of the charity's trustees C. Booth Trustee 24 September 2024 Page 2 **South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service Independent Examiners Report** ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service** I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service for the year ended 31 March 2024. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** As 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 by being a qualified member of F.M.A.A.T. I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or - the financial statements do not accord with those records; or - the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities charitable activities and services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. - Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. - Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs. - Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. ## **Taxation** The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. ## **Freehold investment property** Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. ## **Stocks** Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market. ## **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.

Page 7 **South Yorkshire Chaplaincy & Listening Service Notes to the Accounts** ## **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.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure. ## **Leased assets** Where the charity enters into 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. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into 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. ## **Pension costs** The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds. ## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services** All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
