## Trustees’ Report
## **TEAM RISE General Overview:**
TEAM RISE runs Monday to Friday, supporting nearly 100 individuals each week. We provide a wide range of activities, which are not only engaging and fun but also give our members the opportunity to develop skills.
## **Monday:**
Provision of educational and performance activities with member choosing subjects they would like to learn about. This year we received funding from Marsden building society to facilitate several sessions around finances and safety whilst online. These sessions were highly beneficial and gave everyone a clear idea of how important it is to be aware of potential fraud and scams.
The second half of the year was dedicated to writing, directing and performing our own pantomime, which we performed for over 200 members of the public. Our members derive a great sense of pride by performing for the wider community and also helps improve communication skills, confidence and teamwork.
## **Tuesday:**
Tuesday is dedicated to life skills, giving the members the opportunity to plan their meals, use their own produce and cook a healthy meal. These sessions also develop skills in financial awareness, budgeting, health and safety and nutritional value.
## **Wednesday:**
Physical activity is the emphasis on Wednesday morning. This year we have enjoyed football, provide by a local sports facility and free of charge to all our members. Mindful dance and craft sessions have been facilitated by “School of you”, a local charity who again provided these sessions free of charge. We have also enjoyed numerous walks in the surrounding countryside and along our local canal systems.
In the afternoon members can choose from a variety of activities including photography, baking, crafts and gardening. All these sessions again help to develop skills and are enjoyed by our members.
## **Thursday/Friday:**
Social activities are carried out on both Thursday and Friday, with the groups visiting a wide variety of places. These can include museums, exhibitions, sports facilities. Our members plan the agenda at the beginning of the year, and we try to ensure that we visit all the places our members request. All our members love these days out and enjoy being part of the wider community.
**4 |** P a g e
The more people in our community are aware of people with learning disabilities and autism the more
they will realise that they can play an active and positive role in society, which in turn breaks down barriers and helps to reduce any preconceived ideas people may have.
## **Grants and Fund Raising:**
All members were notified that the membership fees were going to increase slightly at the beginning of 2026. We have not increased fees in over 5 years and had to consider the increase in the standard of living and subsequent increase in our overheads.
The membership fee does not cover the running cost of our project and subsequently we fund raise through out the year to subsidise the cost.
Fund raising is difficult, but we again achieved our target and have developed financially beneficial relationships with a number of local businesses throughout the year.
We also employed a local business advisor for one day per week, to help grow our network and develop working relationships with companies within our community, with the hope that they will support financially in the coming year.
We have received a number of grants to support our project and will actively be seeking other funding in the coming year.
## **TEAM RISE renovations:**
Renovations to TEAM RISE are now concluding with extensive work being carried out in several areas:
## **Outside Space:**
1. Our outside space now has areas for relaxation and quieter times, with the installation of a wild meadow garden, benches and hammocks. This area is a valued aspect of our project and gives members the opportunity to enjoy the outside space in a quieter area.
2. The garden growing areas have been extended, and we now enjoy producing a variety of both vegetables and fruit, which we use in our cooking and baking sessions. Producing our own food has given members a sense of achievement and has widen their skill set. Economically this project has also proved very beneficial to TEAM RISE.
**5 |** P a g e
3. Princes Trust chose us as their Charity and we were able to welcome a large group of young volunteers to TEAM RISE who enhanced our outside space by repainting all walls, adding collages to walls and generally tidying up our gardens, all of which made our outside space brighter and more welcoming.
## **Toilet Areas:**
1. The toilet areas at TEAM RISE were in a very poor condition, however with grant funding from several sources we have completely renovated all areas, incorporating wall panelling, non-slip floors, disability access, heating and additional lightening.
2. Volunteers from SKY also gave their time to repaint all these areas, giving them a cleaner and brighter overall appearance.
## **Kitchen:**
In 20206 we intend to further improve our kitchen area, adding an extraction unit, further stainless steel shelving and more economical ovens.

## Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilites
The trustees (who are also directors of Team Rise for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting standards (United Kingdom generally accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable las and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required too:
- Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently.
- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP.
- 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 charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for the keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose the reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence the taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## Independent Examiner’s Report to the trustees of Team Rise
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2022 which are set out on pages 5 to 13.
Respectve responsibilites of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, 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 of 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 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 matter has come to my attention:
Therefore in my opinion these accounts show a ‘true and fair view of the charities accounts’

## Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
## Income and Endowments
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income.
## Donatons and Legacies
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and the settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity, and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs in that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charge allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. Governance Costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management, trustee’s meetings and reimbursed expenses. Taxaton
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
## Tangible Fixed Assets
Individual fixed assets costing £100 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent impairment losses.
Depreciaton and amortsaton
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: Motor Vehicles 25% Reducing Balance
Trade Debtors
Trade Debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of the business.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change of value.

## Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Fund Structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for the use at the trustee’s discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Financial instruments
Classifcaton
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities. Recogniton and measurement
All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the financial statement when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the regonised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle on the liability simultaneously.
Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the charity, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks, and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party. Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.
