## **Structure, governance and management** 

## _Governance_ 

The charity is a charitable incorporated organisation, registered on 2 March 2020. 

## _Recruitment and appointment of trustees_ 

Trustees are recruited based on their skill, knowledge, and experience of working in our field and/or their experience of charity management and governance. 

## _Induction and training of trustees_ 

New trustees are invited and encouraged to attend a series of short training sessions (of no more than an hour) to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates. These are jointly led by the Chair of trustees and the directors of the charity and cover: 

- Obligations of the trustees. 

- The main documents which set out the operational framework for the charity including the governing document. 

- Resourcing and the current financial position as set out in the latest published accounts. 

- Future plans and objectives. 

## _Risk Management_ 

Trustees and staff carry out regular risk assessments that affect both the operational delivery of our work and the longer-term sustainability of our service delivery. The principal risk to the organisation’s ongoing viability is funding. From our inception, the charity has pursued a policy of spreading financial risk by developing a diverse financial model that leverages funding from a wide variety of sources including Essex Police, community fundraising and grant aid from Essex County Council. 

## _Remuneration policy_ 

All staff work on a full-time basis. Their salaries are based on market rates and reviewed annually in line with the remuneration policy, which provides a framework for all remuneration decisions. 

The trustees do not receive any remuneration. 

The overall objective of the remuneration policy is to offer fair remuneration to attract, develop and retain staff with the right abilities, skills, and competencies to leas, manage, support and/or deliver the services to the community. 

In deciding on pay levels for staff, the following factors may be considered. These factors are not exclusive and any decisions will inevitably include an element of discretion on the part of the trustees.

## Ensuring Our Work Delivers Our Aims 

We review our aims, objectives, and activities every 6 months. This review looks at what we have achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 6 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aim, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. 

## The Focus Of Our Work 

Our main objectives for the year continued to be the promotion and prevention of youth related violence and crime and to help young people to develop their capabilities that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society. The strategies we used to meet these objectives included: 

- Providing a range of services which are reflective of relevant quality standards and address the potential problems related to youth violence and crime. 

- Working in partnership with other agencies to secure the widest range of services available that best matches the need of the young people.

## _Reserves policy_ 

The organisation aims to maintain a prudent level of reserves to ensure financial stability and to protect against unexpected events or fluctuations in income. Reserves provide a buffer that allows the organisation to continue operating effectively and meet its obligations even during periods of uncertainty. 

The level of reserves is reviewed regularly by management to ensure that it remains appropriate for the organisation’s operational needs, risk profile, and future plans. When reserves fall above or below the desired range, management will consider suitable actions to bring them back in line with the policy. 

Reserves are held in accessible accounts so they can be used promptly if required. The organisation is committed - to managing its funds responsibly and maintaining sufficient reserves to support long term sustainability. 

The reserves will be used for the following specific purposes: 

- Accountancy, audit and other professional costs 

- Short term contingency costs between major grants 

Restricted reserves at 31 August 2025 totalled £182,347 (2024: £272,109). The restricted reserves are to be used for specific projects as detailed in note 12 to the accounts. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

2025 will hopefully be another successful year for the charity in developing new services and securing the right investment to ensure the expansion and sustainability of our service delivery. Our priorities for 2025 will include:- 

- Growing the charity further into other schools in the local area and expanding the charity’s wellness and wellbeing programme.

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees, who are also the directors of Uturn4Support for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company Law 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 charitable company for that year. 

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;  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 adequate 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 Companies Act 2006. 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. 

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

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF UTURN4SUPPORT** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Uturn4Support (the charity) for the year ended 31 August 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity 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 the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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 that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements 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 

- 4 the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. The charity is not registered for VAT and accordingly expenditure is shown gross of VAT. 

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 include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include independent examination fees. These costs are included within support costs. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

|Plant and machinery|25% reducing balance|
|---|---|
|Fixtures, ftngs & equipment|25% reducing balance|



The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. 

## **1.7 Retirement benefits** 

The company operates a defined contribution retirement benefit scheme for all qualifying employees. The company contributes a specified percentage of payroll costs to the scheme to fund the benefits. The only obligation of the company with respect to the scheme is to make the specified contributions. This falls under the scope of restricted funds as staff costs are directly attributable to charitable activities.
