TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2023.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the CIO's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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).

Objectives and activities

Public benefit

The CIO's objectives are:

• Supporting people to alleviate the stigma which perpetuates mental health problems.

• Identifying best practice in tackling mental health issues, supporting users and identifying local and national services and disseminating information.

• Providing service users with the capacity to be better equipped to deal with depression.

• Raising public awareness of the issues affecting mental health sufferers.

Achievements and performance

Significant activities and achievements against objectives

In 2022/23, we have continued to be one of the most dynamic and progressive independent charities, continuing to provide free, fast and effective mental health support to vulnerable young people across our project portfolio. We have delivered a range of evidenced-based support programmes that improve the wellbeing and mental health of young people and young adults, using innovation, arts and culture as catalysts for change. 99% of our members said they would recommend Open Door to a friend, an increase of 7% from 2021/22.

Together, our members, mentors and staff have transformed cultures around mental health. The times when young people need support becomes moments of meaningful change. We have provided and incubated opportunities to connect with brilliant people, transformative tools and inspirational places.

In January 2023, we proudly welcome their Royal Highnesses, The Prince and Princess of Wales to the Bloom Building. They were introduced to Open Door due to our innovative approach to mental health support for young people. The Princess of Wales commented on our model.

"We’ve never seen this concept work so well. As soon as I walked in, I knew it was a very special place. What you’re doing is really exciting. You’ve made a space that makes for positive conversations around mental health and you’re normalising it, changing the way we talk about it”. – Catherine, Princess of Wales.

A Bazaar member commented on their support,

“I have really enjoyed these sessions and got A LOT out of them! Not only did it help me to get out the house, be social and be less awkward with new men but it has given me many tools to alter my reactions and self-perception and has made things feel easier to deal with. I genuinely wasn’t expecting it to help this much as I’ve had CBT before and it didn’t really click but this time around it has felt approachable, manageable and most importantly enjoyable”.

Our ground-breaking support offer, OOMOO has continued to thrive. OOMOO was born out of the need to reimagine the emotional wellbeing offer of Children Looked After on Wirral. This year we have a total of 211 members, with 19 new members in the year. The latest data made available by Wirral Council in July 2023 found that 353 young people were eligible for OOMOO. While not all previous members will still be eligible for OOMOO, this roughly represents 59.77% of eligible young people attending OOMOO.

An OOMOO member commented on their experience:

OPEN DOOR CHARITY

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

“Back in February I got a letter through the post about OOMOO. It looked cool so my carer brought me. I just came back, and back… Before OOMOO, I didn’t do any activity clubs. Apart from in the summer. In the evenings I just wouldn’t do anything. And now I’ve been to loads here, summer was good, the activities were good. It’s just good. I have made friends and I talk to them outside of OOMOO. Maybe I want to try the mental health support. I have never tried it before”.

851 people purchased tickets for cultural events, arts sessions and workshops through our home, Bloom Building. Bloom Building continues to be a lynchpin in the heart of our community, engaging thousands each year.

2022/23 saw the creation of our latest innovative support offer, Mysa. Mysa is a pioneering initiative designed to address disordered eating among young adults aged 18 and above in Merseyside, due to waiting lists and strict eligibility criteria that isn't inclusive to all forms of disordered eating. Developed with direct input from those with lived experience, individuals do not require a diagnosis to access our bi-weekly support groups and our unique 1:1 CBT based programme bespoke for disordered eating (launching in Autumn 24). We have the strategic aim to support 50+ individuals in 2023/24.

We have invested in our data collection, data analysis and systems. We have developed this through investing in key members of the data team, investing in a CRM system (Beacon) that has the functionality to sit horizontally across the organisation, streamlining system working.

Financial review

As at 31 October 2023, the CIO had reserves of £252,826 (2022: £335,453). Included within these reserves are £11,950 (2022: £56,704) of restricted funds. Included within unrestricted funds are fixed assets totaling £25,072 (2022: £45,324). These funds can only be realised upon the sale of these assets. The CIO had free reserves of £161,829 as at 31 October 2023 (2022: £207,601).

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the CIO that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the CIO’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

Major risks

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

Plans for future periods

We are currently in the final stages of leading on creating an alliance of local and regional providers to bid to deliver a transformational piece of system change work - Branch. We aim to create a new central point of access for all young people’s mental health, which will via a website, algorithm and new team, ensuring young people get connected to the right service at the right time. Alongside Joy, this is part of a large scale strategic shift in Wirral around young people’s mental health, in which Open Door sits very centrally.

Joy

Joy will soon have its first full time member of staff - the Joy Project Director. This individual will deliver the building in the coming years, with the aim being to recruit the right individual to then take the building forwards and own the Joy project as part of Open Door's Senior Leadership Team. This time next year Joy should be a construction site, with us owning the building by that time.

Team Expansion

We aim to explore creating a new Manager banding within the team, to hold responsibility, ownership and operationally delivery of each of our projects. Funding for this must be secured from somewhere, but it is a necessary development as the size of the team and diversified nature of the charity makes the current staffing structure undeliverable, with over reliance on and over burdening of key individuals.

Fundraising

It is our strategic priority to diversify our income from our heavy reliance on grants to ensure the sustainability of Open Door, as we move into key strategic ambitions in 2023/24. A key priority to achieve this is to expand our fundraising team to secure unrestricted funds and increase the awareness of Open Door.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), which was registered with the Charity Commission on 27th May 2020. The CIO was previously an unincorporated association, charity number 1151421, which was set up under a constitution dated 21st November 2011 and registered with the Charity Commission at that time. The assets and liabilities of the unincorporated association transferred to the CIO on 1st November 2020.

The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

A Devitt D Hopkin P Murray (Resigned 15 January 2024) J S Latham (Appointed 1 August 2023) J Dobbie (Appointed 1 August 2023) S Shanbrook (Appointed 1 August 2023) F J Shephard (Appointed 25 March 2023)

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

Trustees are appointed to the board by resolution of trustees of the board. There must be not less than three trustees. The trustees who served during the year, together with any changes up to the date of approving this report are listed above. Trustees retire in rotation at each general meeting and are limited to a term of three years.

Organisational structure

The board of trustees administers the charity and meets as necessary but not less that four times a year. The dayto-day operations of the charity are the responsibility of the Chief Executive, to whom the board of trustees have delegated authority for operational matters including finance, employment and development.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF OPEN DOOR CHARITY

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Open Door Charity (the CIO) for the year ended 31 October 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the CIO (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 CIO 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 CIO’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

Since the CIO’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Open Door Charity is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Bloom Building, 3 Abbey Close, Birkenhead, Wirral, Merseyside, CH41 5FQ.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the CIO's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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 CIO is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The CIO has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the CIO. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the CIO has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the CIO.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the CIO is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the CIO has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the CIO has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

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.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

1.6 Research and development expenditure

Research expenditure is written off against profits in the year in which it is incurred. Identifiable development expenditure is capitalised to the extent that the technical, commercial and financial feasibility can be demonstrated.

1.7 Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill

Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.

Amortisation 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:

Development costs 25% straight line

1.8 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:

Leasehold land and buildings 20% straight line
Plant and equipment 20% straight line
Computers 33% straight line

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.

1.9 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the CIO reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.10 Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

1.11 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.12 Financial instruments

The CIO has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the CIO's balance sheet when the CIO becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the CIO’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

OPEN DOOR CHARITY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.13 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the CIO has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the CIO will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in net income/(expenditure) in the period in which it arises.

1.14 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the CIO is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the CIO’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
