ADHD Embrace Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **Chair’s statement** 

ADHD Embrace continues to grow and thrive.  Central to what we do is to provide a community and support for parents, carers and professionals living and working with young people with ADHD.  Our objective is that the young people with ADHD can be understood, supported and ultimately thrive.  Our work is user-led where the feedback from our community is highly valued to ensure our offering remains relevant and current, yet leverages off our experience gained over the last twenty years. 

## **Service provision** 

In the last year our service provision was strong with an increasing breadth of offering and growing demand for our services.  Our impact over the last year has been significant as we focus on areas that will positively improve the lives of young people with ADHD. 

We are particularly delighted with the success of our School Outreach Programme, which in the last year has really taken off through our visits to schools, where we offer ADHD awareness and teacher training to schools in our vicinity (being free of charge to state schools).  In addition, the Teacher Seminars led by expert speakers on topics relating to pupils with ADHD have continued to prove popular. 

Our School Outreach Programme was launched in response to the school environment being continuously challenging for young people with ADHD.  Within our community we saw a high number of young people being excluded from school albeit for short periods or even suffering from fixed exclusions.  Equally school avoidance or mental health issues such as anxiety also often were connected to the school environment.  In recent years we observed that teachers and the school environment had gained greater knowledge of ADHD as a condition but the main area that was still wanting was training in strategies and tools to support pupils with ADHD that could be adopted within the schooling system.  This led us to conclude we needed to empower schools and teachers by supporting and provide training on how they could better support pupils with ADHD.  The School Outreach Programme has been extremely positively received by schools, individual teachers and parents. 

Our offering to our parents’ community continues to attract strong engagement and attendance, with the community aspect of our offering continuing to be highly valued.  Our hybrid model for all our service delivery, where we have some in-person and some virtual events, continues to be favoured by our ADHD community.  It also ensures that our offering is accessible to as many people as possible. 

We continued our collaboration with Kingston University, who co-host our Teacher Seminars, and are excited to be working with St Mary’s University since January 2023, where we offer lectures to student teachers on ADHD.  We also work collaboratively with other charities and support groups in the area by promoting the services they provide and also working closely with them to ensure we do not duplicate service provision.  This has resulted in our families accessing a wide range of services and support that is on offer for them.  We continue to be active on the advocacy side, working with education and healthcare statutory service providers to highlight the needs of our community.  We are grateful to have a shared sense of purpose where the focus is to provide support to those in need of our respective offering. 

## **Organisational developments** 

In the last year we transitioned to an organisation where the service provision is led by a full-time Executive Director, Jenny Cooper.  We are hugely proud of achieving this milestone within the three-year timescale, which we set ourselves at the time of becoming a charity in March 2020.   We also increased our part-time staff to five, who all support different aspects of our service provision.  With a team of six, our staff hours averaged 109 hours per week (48 hours in 2022) or the equivalent of 2.73 FTE (1.11 in 2022). 

We are also hugely grateful for the support we received from our many volunteers both from within our ADHD community and the wider community.  Although the paid team increased in size, the service delivery could not be achieved by the team alone and we continued to be significantly supported by our volunteers.  In the reporting period, volunteers contributed 66 hours per week on average (115 hours in 2022) or the equivalent of 1.64 FTE (2.88 FTE in 2022).

ADHD Embrace 

Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2023 

We are fortunate to have an experienced Board of Trustees, comprising seven people who each bring different skills. In the year we appointed a new Trustee, Dr Bozhena Zoritch, a practising clinician, which brings a new perspective and skillset to the Board.  The volunteers’ hours mentioned above included the contributions from our Trustees, who all supported different aspects of the charity in a hands-on way.  Our Trustees also all have first-hand experience of ADHD or associated neuro conditions, thereby understanding the challenges faced by young people with ADHD and their families. 

## **Funding sources** 

We were delighted to secure renewal funding at increased levels from our core funders: RPLC, Hampton Fund and The Barnes Fund and funding from the NHS Trust for the family support work we do.  In the year we also benefitted from funding from the Richmond Voluntary Fund, the National Lottery Community Fund and the Leathersellers Company Charitable Fund. 

We also further broadened our funding base by generating more of our own funds.  We also benefitted from our community raising money for us with various challenge events (such as the Kew 10K and Hampton Court Half Marathon)  and putting us forward to be selected as a nominated charity at local community events (such as the White Hart Lane Christmas Fair) or being schools’ selected charity (Newlands House, Richmond Academy and Christ’s School).  We were also pleased to have received generous donations from our ADHD community, the wider community and commercial businesses, which also included the royalties earned on the publication on Understanding ADHD in Girls and Women by Dr Jo Steer. 

As we expand our offering and there is increased demand for our services, ensuring that we have adequate funding to support the cost of our service provision continues to be an area of importance. Our philosophy as a charity is to offer our services modestly priced or for free in order to ensure they are accessible to as many people as possible. 

## **Plans for next financial year and beyond** 

We are excited about the future as to the impact of our work.  We continue to see unmet needs and more areas in which to develop our service provision for our expanding community. 

We have entered the new financial year and I am delighted to report that we have added a new team member as we have reorganised the role of our Family Support Worker to give us more flexibility in two people covering the role.  As part of this re-organisation, we are also looking to running pilot Post Diagnosis Workshops for newly diagnosed young people themselves.  This is an area where young people have not been supported in the past and we believe will be an important further addition to the support we provide by working with the young people themselves. 

My sincere thanks to the whole team of our dedicated staff, volunteers and my fellow Trustees, who have each contributed in their respective ways to what have been a very busy and productive year. 

Annette Wilson Chair

## Report of the Trustees (continued) 

## **4. Operational policies and procedures** 

ADHD Embrace has put in place policies and procedures to ensure the Charity is run in a structured and efficient way and also to mitigate key risks.  The policies include a Safeguarding Policy.  All the key policies and procedures are reviewed and approved by the Board of Trustees. 

## **5. Financial management and reserves policy** 

ADHD Embrace applies strong financial management in order to ensure that the Charity has sufficient resources to meet its liabilities and that its funds are managed prudently and spent to support the work as set out in its mission statement.  The annual budget and management accounts are presented to the Board of Trustees to ensure sound financial governance. 

The Charity implemented a reserve policy whereby it targets to hold unrestricted reserves that equate to a minimum of three months average expenditure for the next financial year.  Unrestricted reserves as at 31 March 2023 were £60,3602: £38,757), which equates to 5.11 months average expenditure (2022: 2.89 months) for the next financial year. 

Restricted reserves committed to specific projects as at 31 March 2023 were £5,41622: £11,916). 

## **6. Funding overview and going concern** 

ADHD Embrace funding strategy is to ensure that it secures funding from diverse income streams in order to ensure it is sustainable in the longer term. In the period under review its income came from the following: 

55% from grant funders 

19% from donations, fundraising events and retailer platforms 

13% from our service activities 

12% from the NHS for commissioned work. 

In view of the broad sources of funding the Charity uses and considering its review of future funding, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Charity has adopted the going concern basis in the preparation of its the financial statements for the period under review. 

## **7. Overview of ADHD Embrace’s core activities** 

The Charity’s core activities are focused on serving its community and being an advocate for ADHD awareness in the wider local community and with statutory service providers in order to ensure its community’s needs are catered for. 

It offers a number of activities focused on knowledge sharing and education – these include Seminars led by expert speakers, Post Diagnosis Workshops, Parenting Courses and Advice Clinics as well as an extensive website which has a wealth of information and a resource library of videos and other materials.  In addition, the Community and Schools’ Outreach Programme of visiting schools and offering training at a local University together with the Teacher Seminars are also aimed at knowledge sharing and education on ADHD. 

It also offers activities which are focused on greater engagement with its community such as Drop-in Meet ups, community events and the two Closed Facebook Forums for Parents and Teachers respectively.

As the Trustees of the Charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the Financial Statements in  accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

ADHD Embrace 

Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## Notes to the financial statements 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## 1.1 Basis of preparation 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and 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) (effective 1 January 2019) – (“the SORP”) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (“FRS 102”).  The accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011 and are prepared on a going concern basis. 

The Charity has taken advantage of section 4.6 of the SORP to report the Charity’s expenditure in accordance with the purpose for which it was incurred rather than on an activity basis. 

The Charity has taken advantage of the disclosure exemption with regards to the requirements of section 7 Statement of Cash Flows in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102. 

## 1.2 Revenue recognition 

Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities once ADHD Embrace becomes legally entitled to it, the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy and once any performance criteria has been met. 

Donations in kind are included under donations based on estimates of the value of goods and services received or in the case of donations in kind for use at events (e.g. auction prizes) are recognised at the amount realised from their sale.  No amounts are included for services donated by volunteers in accordance with the SORP.  The Trustees’ Report gives more information about volunteers’ contributions. 

## 1.3 Expenses 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis once costs have been incurred.  Accruals for unpaid expenses relating to the reporting period are based on best estimates of amounts due. 

## 1.4 Fund accounting 

Unrestricted funds are funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or raised by the Charity for particular purposes.  The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## 1.5 Public benefit 

The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

## 1.6 Taxation 

ADHD Embrace is a Registered Charity and meets the exemption criteria from taxation under the Income and Corporation Taxes Act. No taxation therefore arises. 

## 1.7 Irrecoverable VAT 

The Charity is not registered for VAT and therefore does not recover VAT on costs incurred.  Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of expenditure for which it was incurred. 

## 1.8 Debtors 

Debtors include amounts owed to the Charity as at the period end for the provision of goods and services before the period end or amounts the Charity has paid in advance for the goods and services it will receive.  Debtors and prepayments are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
