Report of Trustees to Charity Commission for year ending October 2024

This year we again carried our actions in line with our charitable aims and objectives providing social opportunities and activities for children with a variety of needs including disabilities and mental health conditions and their families.

We received funding from Carer’s Trust Wales, Caerphilly Regional Integration Fund, Torfaen Regional Integration Fund, Postcode Community Trust, Newport City Council Participatory Budget, and Community Foundation In Wales.

Our activities and events promote confidence in the children and parent/carers, they provide support and advice, reduce isolation, increase self-esteem and benefit both mental and physical wellbeing. These are subsidised so families can attend at an affordable cost, we do offer fully subsidised activities for families that request support.

We organised a number of activities over the 12 months including:

Water Activities – swimming, surfing and paddleboarding
Cooking – for teenagers with anxiety
Youth Club for neurodivergent teenagers
Ice Skating and Ice Hockey
Trampolining, soft play and bowling
Days out for Christmas and Halloween, including Pantomime and Carer’s Meal
45 families attended a residential activity weekend
Theatre
Training for parent/carers and workshops
Skateboarding and free running
Farm trips and equine therapy sessions
Fishing for both children and carers
Sewing classes for home educated children
Carers enjoyed a wide range of activities: including pottery, sewing, wellbeing sessions, journalling, art, and afternoon teas.

At Christmas we provided food and gift hampers including vouchers for families. We also delivered breaks which included hotel stays, spa days, cinema vouchers for unpaid adult and young carers. During this period we supported over 200 families across the South Wales region.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF

REWILD PLAY

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the period ended 31[st] October 2024, which are set out on pages 5 to 7.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or
the accounts do not accord with the accounting records

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
