Objectives and activities
Objects and aims
Vision and Mission
Dads Unlimited is a registered charity providing vital support services to men and their families. We empower men to foster healthy emotional well-being, create positive connections, and build fulfilling lives. We provide:
●guidance and assistance to men going through family separation.
●1-1 and group support to male victims of domestic abuse, advocating for their safety and the safety of their families.
●help in navigating the court system to connect dads and their children.
●mental health and wellbeing services, with counselling and signposting to specialist support agencies.
Our mission is to support men experiencing domestic abuse, mental health challenges, and family separation. We listen to, understand and empower men, so they can gain the tools they need to understand their options, work through difficulties, and create their desired futures. We provide practical and emotional support to improve wellbeing and connection with others.
Our vision is for men and those they care about to experience healthy, happy relationships. We seek a future where men can talk about their mental health, feel listened to, empowered, connected and understood.
Objects The official objects of Dads Unlimited are:
-
To advance the education of the public in the subject of relationship breakdown whereby children are involved, in particular by focusing on fathers;
-
For the public benefit provide the relief of the physical and mental health of fathers in need, in particular by the provision of counselling, support and services for the ongoing safety of men who are abused and those who are affected by abuse.
-
To provide, for the benefit of the public, assistance through conciliation for couples with children whose relationships appear to be breaking down, and where such relationships have already broken down, to advise and help in the settlement of differences or potential differences over associated matters such as custody and access to children, and financial matters.

Trustees' Report (continued)
Our work
The issues we are regularly presented with are anxiety, depression, PTSD, domestic abuse, loss of contact with children, loneliness, isolation, self-harm and suicidal ideation. We provide wrap-around support on all of these issues through our trauma-informed services of 1:1 Mentoring, Mental Health counselling, Male Victims IDVA service, Support Group Meetings, Family Court Support / Barrister Representation Service, Co-Parenting Workshops, and Community Activities for dads to enjoy with or without their children.
Dads Unlimited work hard to ensure the voice of the child is at the heart of the family breakdown process, whilst simultaneously working to reduce male-suicide, help male victims of domestic abuse, and reduce parental conflict post-separation to improve outcomes for our beneficiaries’ children.
Desired outcomes for the men we help are:
-
●An improvement in their mental health and wellbeing.
-
●Successful court outcomes enabling men to have meaningful relationships with their children.
-
●A reduction in parental conflict.
-
●The ability to manage and promote a positive co-parenting environment.
-
●Dedicated support for a victim of domestic abuse, and to assist in their recovery.
-
●A better understanding, in society, of the role of the father and fatherhood.
-
●A better understanding of the link between family issues and men's mental health.
Our underlying position is that the involvement of both parents in a child’s life will further their welfare unless there is evidence to the contrary.
Public benefit
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
Use of volunteers
The Chair would like to record thanks to all Trustees for their contribution, and to our Patrons, The Lord Lieutenant of Kent, The Lady Colgrain CStJ and Nadra Ahmed CBE DL, for their kind encouragement and support.
Dads Unlimited do not currently have any other volunteer roles, however an expansion on our volunteering opportunities is planned for 2025.
Achievements and performance
Operational delivery
“You always remember the important details, like my children’s names and what I said I would do in between calls. This makes me feel valued, and heard. I feel believed, validated and supported. You must have so many clients, but I feel like I am the only one. This year would have been far tougher without your ongoing support”.
Dads Unlimited's impact extends far beyond the men we support. It echoes out to children, families, and the wider communities we all live in. Last year we supported 1957 men through family separation, domestic abuse, and contact with their children. This was an increase of 43% on the previous year. We did this through the following programmes:

In addition to one-to-one support, our group programmes inform men how to better co-parent, and how to navigate the court system.

Learning and improvement
We are committed to the ongoing evaluation and improvement of our programmes. We utilise feedback from our clients to improve our approach to providing support, to update our workshop content, and to improve the clients experience of our charity. We listen to the wider sector on issues relating to men’s mental health, and feed into this through research and information sharing.
Over the past year we have contributed to the following research projects:
-
●Public Health England’s Kent Team’s research into male victims of domestic abuse and suicide
-
●Ben Hine’s research into Father’s & parental alienation
-
●The Government’s call for evidence about Men’s Health
This year we’ve invested in staff training, through the provision of IDVA training for our domestic abuse team, and training for all staff on the family court process. We are committed to staying up to date on the current legislation and issues impacting the men and families we support.

Financial review
Policy on reserves
A surplus position has been recorded for this financial year of £290,831 . The charity aims to hold a minimum of £60,000 of unrestricted reserves to cover approximately 2 months running costs, as well as additional funds to cover any close down costs. As of 31st March 2024 there was £181,652 of unrestricted reserves and £507,867 of restricted reserves. The board agreed to designate £110,000 of unrestricted reserves towards the development of the organisation, with a focus on further building the foundations of our growing organisation, to ensure future sustainability and to better meet the needs of the people we are here to support. We therefore plan to invest in staff capacity building, staff and trustee learning and development, digital technology, systems, and a review of our fundraising and marketing. As the charity enters a period of growth and high demand for its services, this investment of unrestricted funds will enable us to improve internal processes, enhance the quality of our work, and invest in the building blocks for future service provision. The board has committed to reviewing our reserves policy again in March 2025, to ensure the Board remains satisfied with the level of risk, savings and expenditure.
Plans for future periods
Aims and key objectives for future periods
Strategic plan
In its 7th year as a charity, we have committed to evaluating our achievements to date, and agreeing how best to use our skills, experience and resources to make the most difference to the men we’re here to support now, and in the future.
In 2025 the Senior Leadership Team and Board of Trustees will be developing a three-year strategic plan to guide its work, along with an updated Theory of Change to focus on the impact the charity wishes to have. We will agree, as a team, how we can best work together to achieve our vision of a future where men and those they care about can experience healthy, happy relationships; where men can talk about their mental health, feel listened to, empowered, connected and understood.
This will guide the programmes we deliver, our evaluation framework, the projects we decide to focus on, and our main objectives for the years ahead. Our clients will be involved in the development of this strategy, ensuring the views, needs and preferences of our clients are central to everything we do. To achieve this, a Men’s Panel’ is being formed in 2025 to provide ‘lived experience’ feedback, input and ideas throughout this process. We will also consult with other key stakeholders for a rounded view, ensuring we are connecting with local and national agencies working together in this space.

Activities planned to achieve aims
Supporting factors
To support our work during this period, we will be investing time in:
●Income generation: We do not have enough staff to meet the demand for our services. We want to have sufficient income to maintain the programmes we have, and expand on these to meet the rising demand. Our income generation strategy focuses on growing and diversifying our income, with an emphasis on sustaining our work.
●Governance: Good governance is key to the effective management of any charity. With a new board of trustees in place, we are investing in board training and implementing effective board processes in line with the Governance Code. We are investing in a board Skills Audit and Governance Health Check to kick start this work.
●People and culture: We want Dads Unlimited to be a great place to work, with people that believe in our mission and vision leading our new strategy. We will continue to invest and develop our staff team through targeted learning & development, and aim to proactively create a positive work environment.
●Marketing and communications: We will review how Dads Unlimited comes across to the world outside, with a rebrand planned for 2025 and a campaign to raise awareness of our work. We will improve our communication with clients, supporters and those interested in learning more about our work. A marketing strategy has been developed, to ensure we are communicating our vision and our impact with the world outside.
●Systems and processes: we will update and improve our ways of working, and invest in the systems needed to ensure we are efficient in all areas of our work. This includes our databases, IT systems, and internal policies and procedures.

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 accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
Dads Unlimited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.
Grants receivable
Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.
Investment income
Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Dads Unlimited
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees meetings and reimbursed expenses.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £100.00 or more are initially recorded at cost.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Fixtures and fittings 10 years straight line Office equipment 5 years straight line
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Dads Unlimited
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (continued)

Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
Pensions and other post retirement obligations
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
