Growing Hope Brockley Annual Report 2023

Nick Stevenson-Steels, Former Chair of Trustees

2023 has been a year of lots of change for Growing Hope Brockley. For the most part we have been able to continue to deliver therapy services to those children most in need within the Brockley community, which is wonderful to be a part of, knowing that this charity is making such tangible differences to children, for FREE!

But it’s important to recognise that we are in a transitional season at Growing Hope Brockley. We said goodbye to our original Clinic Manager, Shaaron, after a very successful few years holding the torch. It has been amazing to learn about all the ways Shaaron’s commitment during her time here has gone to help so many children. Unfortunately since Shaaron’s departure, we have been without a Clinic Manager, so right now our primary prayer request is that we find the right person to take on the role and lead the charity forwards to help even more children.

I too have stepped down as Chair, and Nicole Nelson has taken my place. It’s been a blessing and a privilege to serve such a remarkable charity that is Growing Hope Brockley.

I’d like to thank our Board of Trustees who have all served Growing Hope Brockley so well and have been vital in helping it achieve so many successes. We also said goodbye to Tinashe from the board this year. St Peter’s Church Brockley deserves a huge mention of thanks, as always they have provided a safe space for our clinic to be held, along with enabling us to host several fundraising events throughout the year.

Finally, the most important thanks is to God for helping our team at Growing Hope Brockley and National to persevere with the many changes this year has brought.

Dr Naomi Graham, Founder and CEO

This year we celebrated Growing Hope turning five years old and as I reflect back on the past five years, I’m so encouraged by the growth we have seen and the ways in which our clinics and therapists have made a difference in the lives of so many families.

This year saw some particularly exciting growth within our national team which is enabling us to reach and support more families of children with additional needs across the UK. We launched our accessibility award which enables churches to receive an audit and a bronze, silver or gold award for their provision for individuals with a wide range of additional needs. We also have seen our fourth clinic set up in Gateshead and look forward to seeing this open in 2024.

I’m so encouraged by the many conversations we are having with churches nationwide, around forming partnerships and setting up clinics within the coming years. I’m delighted that we’re collaborating with All Saints Woodford Wells to set up our next clinic in Redbridge next year. I am so proud of all of the hard work of the Growing Hope team as we continue to grow hope across the UK and draw nearer to our vision of 20 clinics by 2030.

Trustees’ Report

The Board of Trustees presents its report and financial statements for the year 1 January 2023 - 31 December 2023 together with the Independent Examiner’s Report.

In December, Nikkola Thornton and Lucy Dacey were appointed as additional trustees.

Aims and Objectives

We bring hope to children through free therapy services.

We grow hope for families where hope has been lost due to isolation or rejection.

In accordance with its charity constitution, Growing Hope Brockley has sought to achieve the following aims and objectives in the year dated 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023.

The advancement of health and wellbeing for the public benefit by the provision of a therapy clinic run in accordance with Christian principles for children and young people (0-18) with additional needs and their families living in Lewisham and Southwark. In particular, but not exlusively by:

Kameron’s Story

In his occupational therapy sessions, Kameron worked through the Personal Space Journey to help him think about his body awareness.

He looked at body and spatial awareness, and thought about how not to “pop” others’ bubbles by getting in their personal space. We’ve also been looking at Zones of Regulation together, to help him to know what he can do and shouldn’t do when he has big feelings.

Shaaron O’Driscoll provided therapy for Growing Hope Brockley until July 2023, when she stepped down as Clinic Manager. Across the year we have been joined by three regular volunteers who have supported our clinic sessions.

Daniel is a 6-year-old boy who has autism and speech delay. Daniel and his mother came to Growing Hope Brockley for sessions where they worked with the therapist to overcome some challenges around using a dummy and increasing the range of food he explored at mealtimes.

Daniel achieved all of his goals, and is now able to function in the daytime without using his dummy for support and he has tasted new foods at home. Daniel’s mother also attended our When Dreams Change course where she was able to connect with other parents, and was equipped with strategies to help her support her own independence and mental health needs.

Daniel’s mum says, “When we first visited Growing Hope I wasn’t sure what to expect or whether my son with additional needs would be comfortable being there. Now, at the end of his therapy, my son has enjoyed coming for his therapy sessions, and has made significant progress. I am more equipped with a wealth of information and helpful strategies to maintain and improve on my son’s progress.”

Hope for Children

We have provided therapy for 31 children and young people.

Examples of goals have been emotional regulation, attention and listening, social skills, toileting, dressing and eating. 93% of therapy goals have been achieved.

We have provided free occupational therapy for children and young people in the St Peter’s church building. We have worked on individualised goals to support children and families in the areas of greatest need.

We have run:

Two When Dreams Change courses , a four-week course that aims to help parents and carers reflect on their experience of having a child with additional needs, and to become more of the person they have been created to be.

One Siblings Group course , a seven-week course that aims to enable brothers and sisters of children with additional needs to share their experiences of being a sibling and connect with other children with similar experiences. Two young people from the Lewisham and Southwark boroughs attended a pilot course for a secondary school age Siblings Group.

One Circle of Security course , supporting parents in enabling their children to develop secure attachments.

21 training sessions for parents and carers , fortnightly sessions on a variety of topics, hosted by our therapists in partnership with Growing Hope National, King’s Cross, and High Wycombe.

Feedback has been that 85% of goals have been met within our courses.

Hope in Jesus

We believe Jesus brings hope even in the most difficult situations. We always offer to pray for families at the end of each therapy session, several families have taken up this offer and it has been a privilege to see answers to prayer. Our Clinic Manager Shaaron also worked on a Sunday to support families to access church with the help of Growing Hope champions.

This year we have had nine Growing Hope champions serving alongside children and youth ministry to help families feel welcome. We have had another three families join the church because the kids’ ministry team is able to support their children’s needs. One of the mothers spent the first few weeks shocked that her son attended kids’ church for the duration of the sessions and kept asking “how did you get him to stay?”. The answer is that a sensory room was created out of the church office to give him a calming space when he needed it. Growing Hope is open to individuals of all faiths and backgrounds and there is no pressure to participate in the faith aspects of our service.

James came to Growing Hope Brockley for occupational therapy sessions. He has been working on typing to increase his speed as an alternative to writing both at school and at home.

James uses a method of problem-solving to help him do daily tasks that he otherwise finds tricky. He has been able to write eight successful plans to do tasks such as tying his laces and making tea.

The trustees present an overview of the charity’s finances for the period: 1 January 2023 - 31 December 2023. We are grateful to Fari Shakourozadeh, who runs our gift aid claims as a volunteer. Growing Hope Brockley currently runs with both restricted and unrestricted funding. Funds left in reserve at the end of the financial period: £58,368.

Management of Financial Risk

Supporter Engagement and Fundraising

We raise money at key points in the year through a summer campaign, Big Give, community fundraising, fundraising dinner and grants. We’re grateful for all the support we have received from our generous supporters. More details are in the accounts.

“I ran 10km for Growing Hope Brockley because I’ve known so many families caught in a long slow system, waiting for help for their children struggling with undiagnosed but challenging additional needs. The support Growing Hope offer to local families is really beautiful in action and I’ve been so impressed with all I’ve seen and heard.”

Risk Management

Grants received:

The trustees take risk management seriously and have identified the following risks and put in place processes to mitigate them. We have policies in place to mitigate any risks in the following areas; financial risk, IT security and protection, safeguarding, health and safety and comprising Christian identity and values.

Structure and Governance

Growing Hope Brockley is a registered charity in England and Wales, and is run in accordance with its charity constitution. Growing Hope Brockley works in collaboration with St Peter’s Brockley and Growing Hope National. As a CIO, if Growing Hope Brockley is wound up, the members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities. The trustees also hold Trustee Indemnity insurance of £100,000 for Executive Risks. Insurance is provided via Growing Hope National charity (policy number CC009584).

Shaaron O’Driscoll attended Growing Hope Brockley Trustee meetings but was not party to any decisions regarding her salary or employment.

Trustees

Growing Hope Brockley trustees are members of the CIO and appointed by a resolution at trustee meetings. They are responsible for governance of Growing Hope, ensuring it is meeting its charitable purposes.

We will be continuing to recruit for new Clinic Manager to lead the clinic. There is an ever-increasing demand for the service, and we have found that group therapy sessions have been a very effective way to see families sooner as well as give families the opportunity to share learning and ideas amongst themselves. We plan to run more groups with more attendees. Stronger connections with schools will be worked towards to be able to offer more Siblings Groups and school training sessions. We also hope to employ a therapist that can further support children and young people who have experienced trauma and need counselling therapy.

Growing Hope Brockley Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees For the year 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the period 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 which are set out on pages 16-27.

Responsibilities and Basis of Report

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

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 did 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.

Growing Hope Brockley Notes to the Financial Statements For the year 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023

1. Accounting Policies

Incorporation

Growing Hope Brockley was registered in England and Wales with the Charity Commission as a CIO Foundation on 23 March 2020. These financial statements are for the period 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023.

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). The Charity is a public benefit entity for the purposes of FRS 102 and therefore the charity also prepared its financial statements in accordance with the 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) and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention.

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

Going Concern Basis

The trustees have assessed whether the use of going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of these financial statements. In particular, the trustees have considered the charity’s forecasts and projections and have taken account of pressure on income. After making enquiries, the trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operations existence for the foreseeable future. The charity

Hope for Children, Hope for Families, Hope in Jesus

20

therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing financial statements.

Income

Income is recognised in the period which it was receivable. Also included is the estimated value of gifts in kind and goods or services donated to the charity where the amounts are material, readily quantifiable and measurable. Such estimates are based on the market price the charity would otherwise have paid.

Expenditure

Direct charitable expenditure comprises all expenditure relating to the activities carried out to achieve the objectives.

Expenditure is allocated directly to the expenditure headings as far as practically possible to reflect the activities of the charity. Support costs have been allocated to the activities based on employee time spent on that activity.

Expenditure is included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered. Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party; it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Fund Accounting

Restricted funds are subject to restrictions imposed by the donor. These are accounted for separately from unrestricted funds. The movements on restricted funds in the period are shown in note 7 to the accounts.

Unrestricted funds are those which are not subject to restrictions, and any surpluses may be applied in furtherance of any of the charity’s objectives.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and in-hand and shortterm deposits with a maturity date of three months or less.

Growing Hope Brockley Annual Report 2023

21

Debtors and Creditors

Debtors and creditors receivable or payable within one year of the reporting date are carried at their transaction price. Debtors and creditors that are receivable or payable in more than one year and not subject to a market rate of interest are measured at the present value of the expected future receipts or payment discounted at a market rate of interest.

Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing less than £500 are not capitalised and are written off in the year of purchase. Depreciation is provided so as to write off the cost of the fixed assets over their estimated useful lives. A full year’s depreciation is charged in the year of purchase. Depreciation is charged at the following annual rates:

Computer and Office Equipment: 4 Years straight line Clinic Equipment: 4 Years straight line

Pension

The charity operates a defined contribution stakeholder pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from the charity.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Areas of Judgement

The annual depreciation charge for property, plant and equipment is sensitive to change in useful economic life and residual values of assets. These are reassessed annually.

In the view of the trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no other judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year.
