OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activities
This year Jolly Josh has continued to support families to Connect, Support and Thrive within our bespoke, specialist centre and our wider community. Our families continue to benefit from sessions within our accessible, purpose-built centre which enhance the quality of life our families experience, encourage friendship networks to create peer support and promote the collaboration of services which families can access.
Sessions at Jolly Josh include Rebound Therapy, Hydrotherapy, Stay and Play, Sing and Sign, Sensory Touch and Music, Coffee and Catch Up, Early Years, Junior and Youth groups and more. In addition to the sessions at the centre, our families have been visiting local amenities and taking advantage of the support within our community, for example, sessions have regularly been held in the local allotment and there have been group trips to the cinema.
Jolly Josh have always appreciated the support from our fundraisers and sponsors and this year we’re again super thankful to every individual, business and service who have donated their time and/or funds.
This year we hosted our first Jolly Josh Jingle Ball, which was a huge success and will hopefully now be a reoccurring fundraising event.
Of course, the highlight of this year has been our receipt of the King’s Award for Voluntary Service. It is with gratitude that Carole and James (Joshua’s parents, and Jolly Josh Founders) accepted this award at Buckingham Palace on behalf of all our Jolly Josh volunteers, who we thank for the success of our charity.
We look forward to continuing to develop the provision that we provide at Jolly Josh, in addition to continually increasing our memberships and ensuring the longevity of the lifeline that our charity provides to our families.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF JOLLY JOSH CIO
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Jolly Josh CIO ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 5th April 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
