## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## 2. **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

The charity was established by a Constitution dated 12 November 2018 and registered with the Charity Commission on 20 December 2018 as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by the proper law of England and Wales. The trustees of the charity who are also the members have no liability for the charity’s debts. 

Apart from the first trustees, every appointed trustee must be appointed for a minimum of three years by resolution. The first trustees have been appointed for set terms, and are eligible for a reappointment at the end of that term. 

The number of trustees shall be a minimum of three and not more than twelve at any one time. Future trustees shall be appointed by majority resolution by the existing trustees. Charity trustees may only be appointed upon satisfactory completion of appropriate DBS checks (where appropriate). 

## **Induction and Training** 

Should new trustees be appointed, a formal induction process will be conducted by the trustees. Other trustee training is undertaken as and when appropriate. All trustees are aware of their legal duties and obligations in respect of the management of the charity, including in relation to the protection of its assets. 

## **Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the Charity for that period. 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 2019 (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## 2. **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT (continued)** 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Charity’s website.  Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

No Trustee received any remuneration during the period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021. 

## **Internal Controls** 

The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has appropriate systems of internal controls. They are also responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding its assets and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The system of internal controls is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. 

## **Risk Management & Corporate Governance** 

A risk assessment has been undertaken which comprises: 

- An annual review of the risks the Charity may face; 

- The establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks; and 

- The implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise. 

This continuing process will identify risk areas to which the Charity is vulnerable and highlight any necessary safeguards that will need to be put in place. No major risks were identified at the date of these accounts. 

The Trustees have signed fit and proper declarations in line with HMRC guidance. 

In addition, the Trustees have taken due consideration of Good Governance – A Code for the Voluntary and Community Sector, ensuring that the seven main principles of the Code are adhered to. These are: 

- Organisational purpose; 

- Leadership; 

- Integrity; 

- Decision-making, risk and control 

- Board effectiveness; 

- Equality, diversity and inclusion; and 

- Openness and accessibility. 

The Trustees recognise that good governance plays an essential part in securing the future of the Charity and confirm that the said principles of the Code are followed by them in leading, directing and managing the Charity

## 2. **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT (continued)** 

## **Fundraising** 

At The Bus relies on the support of its charitable funders and partners and is very thankful for their commitment and support to the charity, especially during its start-up phase. The charity especially notes the support given by funders and other benefactors whilst needing to make sudden changes to plans caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The trustees have referred to the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016 (“the Act”) and the Guidance on Charities and Fundraising issued by the Charity Commission (“CC20”) and confirm that they act in accordance. 

## 3. **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The Objectives of the CIO are: 

1. The advancement of education and preservation and protection of health and mental wellbeing of children and young people experiencing emotional, behavioural and other challenges and complex needs by providing art-as-therapy programmes that, amongst other things, promote engagement with learning and inclusion in schools and communities, for the public benefit. 

2. The advancement of education for the public benefit by providing training and support for those who work with children and young people experiencing challenges in their lives. 

## **Activities** 

At The Bus is a charity that provides school-based mental health support to children and young people in need. This is achieved by: 

- Delivering The Beattie Method, a relationship-based group intervention using art as therapy, to support education and wellbeing; 

- Providing a mobile service to reach as many children as possible; 

- Working on school sites to enable all children to access support; 

- Providing effective early intervention, at times when children and young people most need help; and 

- Providing training for staff who work with children and young people to improve skill levels and increase support in schools and other settings. 

Children and young people are referred by school to attend therapeutic sessions. These are led by two highly skilled facilitators who support small groups of seven children who meet every week for the minimum of a term, in structured sessions of between 1 and 2 hours. Each week pupils work on individual and group art projects, transforming everyday objects into art and transforming the way that they feel about themselves. They share food and conversation. Regular, consistent group sessions build trust in themselves and others, promote self-esteem, independence, positive relationships, emotional literacy and resilience all of which helps young people to re-engage effectively with education.

## 3. **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT (continued)** 

## **Statement of Public Benefit** 

The trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on Public Benefit and confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to it. They consider the information which follows in this annual report, about the charity’s aims, activities and achievements in the areas of interest that the charity supports demonstrates the benefit to its beneficiaries and through them to the Public, that arise from those activities. 

## 4. **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable Activities** 

At The Bus was founded in December 2018 and continued to operate during the period of the Covid pandemic despite school closures and many practical challenges. The early part of 2021 saw disruption from Covid continue but over the course of the year considerable progress was made in embedding and growing the charity. Key aspects included: 

- A beautifully refurbished double decker bus was launched in September 2021 and became an active studio at The Cherwell School in Oxford; 

- A new studio and office space was established at New Marston Primary School, a number of other local primary schools also travelled to this studio to access sessions; 

- A new studio was opened at Barlby School in North Kensington, London; 

- AT The Bus in a Box (mobile service) was provided to several other primary schools in Oxford; and 

- Summer school to support transition from primary to secondary school was held for 200 children at The Cherwell School. 

Over the course of the full academic year (2021/22) 8,800 hours of contact was provided to 440 children, from 8 schools. 

In addition internal processes were strengthened to provide the charity with additional capacity and resilience. A fulltime administrator post was established. Funding streams were considerably diversified with new income streams coming from contributions from schools from September 2021. 

Charitable activity in the period totalled £206,669 (2020: £89,059) and includes direct charitable expenditure of £93,026 (2020: £66,372). This direct charitable expenditure includes the cost of establishing the materials and provisions needed, as well as staff costs for the Therapeutic team. 

The accounting treatment in respect of charitable activities is in line with that set out in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102).

## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## 5. **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The balance of reserves at 31 December 2021 was £149,390 (2020: £129,752). This represents the net current assets of the charity, and will be used to support direct charitable operational costs during 2022. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The trustees have no outstanding commitments or cash demands. The net current assets of the charity are regarded as free reserves and the funds at 31 December 2021 will be retained to fund charitable activities in accordance with the charity’s charitable objects. The trustees consider that the freely expendable funds are appropriate and adequate taking into accounts plans in the future and have at present therefore not designated any specific reserves. However, the trustees will keep this under constant review. In future years a specific reserves policy may be required. 

The Covid-19 pandemic and current ongoing conflict in Ukraine have affected the global economy. Having considered the contingency plans in place and having reviewed updated cashflow forecasts, the Trustees consider the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements continues to be appropriate. 

## 6. **PLANS FOR THE FUTURE** 

There is a crisis in children’s mental health, driven in part by Covid and the cost of living crisis. Children, families and schools urgently need support and there are few providers working with schools to help children in need. AT The Bus gets regular requests from headteachers for help that cannot be provided due to limited capacity. 

In order to better respond to this need, in early 2022 the charity worked up a new Business Strategy that articulates ambitions for growth and sets out plans to scale up operations over the next 4 years. This will be delivered through new leadership arrangements (appointments were made to a joint CEO post in September 2022) and increased numbers of facilitator staff to work with children and young people. 

Key elements of plans for the future include: 

2022/23 academic year – ‘Embed and Invest’ activity 

- Support 800 children over the year 

- Open a further studio at a secondary school in East Oxford 

- Pilot provision in a rural area 

- Expand to an additional school in London 

- Work in partnership with The University of Oxford to complete evaluation work 

- 

   - Develop and pilot a new training offer to create a new income stream for the charity 

- Seek more commissioned services 

- Publish The Beattie Method manual 

- Continue to embed and strengthen internal processes 

## 2023/24 academic year ‘Extend’ 

- Double the number of studio spaces 

- Extend into rural areas of Oxfordshire 

- Extend into other areas of London 

- Extend training provision and seek accreditation 

- Develop a franchise model

## **Independent Examiner’s statement** 

I have completed my examination. I 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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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 

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.

## **AT THE BUS** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

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) (“Charities SORP FRS 102”), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

The charity has applied the provisions set out in Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102) and does not include a cash flow statement. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102). 

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. 

In applying the financial reporting framework, the trustees have made a number of subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. 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. The nature of the estimation means the actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. Any significant estimates and judgements affecting these financial statements are detailed within the relevant accounting policy below. 

## **Incoming resources** 

Voluntary donations include donations under Gift Aid with the associated tax relief included when receivable.  Interest from deposit accounts are included when receivable.  All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (“SOFA”) when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. 

## **Resources expended** 

All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the trustees to the expenditure. 

Charitable activities comprise of staff and associated costs of providing Art Therapy to Children in pursuit of the charitable objectives. 

Governance costs relate to the general running of the charity, as opposed to the management functions inherent in generating funds. 

## **Status of funds** 

The charity holds both restricted and unrestricted funds. Unrestricted are those for which trustees have complete discretion for their use in pursuance of its objectives and the day to day operation of the charity. 

Restricted funds are those which have been donated to the charity for a specific cause or purpose, whereby the donor has imposed a restriction their future use.

## **AT THE BUS** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year** 

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price.  Any losses arising from impairment are recognised as expenditure. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held on call with banks, other shortterm highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **Provisions** 

Provisions are recognised when the charity has an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit will be required in settlement and the amount can be reliably estimated. 

## **Employee benefits** 

When employees have rendered service to the CIO, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service. 

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable. 

## **Tangible Fixed Assets** 

Tangible fixed assets and fixtures and fittings on the Bus are included at their cost value and depreciated using the straight line method over 5 years. 

The Bus and integral improvements are included at their cost value had depreciated using the straight line method of 20 years. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is not subject to any taxes on its charitable activities. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for twelve months from the date of signing of these financial statements. The forecast income and reserves are sufficient to cover all of the budgeted expenditure to be able to continue as a going concern. 

The Covid-19 pandemic and current ongoing conflict in Ukraine have affected the global economy. Having considered the contingency plans in place and having reviewed updated cashflow forecasts, the Trustees consider the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements continues to be appropriate.
