## **Strategic Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present their strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2025, in compliance with s414C of the Companies Act 2006. 

Strategies and activities for achieving objectives and furthering the Charity’s purposes for the public benefit: 

Formed in November 2019, Tanga Club started by running a weekly youth and social group which was attended by up to 50 young people, their parents and carers. Our strategy was to extend this service to weekly support groups and set up a range of other groups and services targeted towards particular age ranges. 

We have maintained our position of being user-led, consulting with our families and proceeding with the most popular activities according to their opinions, suggestions and requirements. 

## **Regular Activity** 

During 2024-25 our weekly Tanga Club continued in its new venue at Hexham Community Centre, providing crafts, games and activities for children with SEND and their siblings and friends. We provide free of charge healthy snacks to the children and hot drinks to the adults. The Club also provides a place for parents and carers to meet and come together, sharing joys and challenges and offering vital and valued peer support. In the last year, we have provided 975 places for children and young people at our regular Friday group. 

**“Tanga Club is like a safe space for us. No matter how challenging the week has been we always end it on a positive note at Tanga. My little boy visibly relaxes and feels comfortable to be himself and have fun with his friends in a place he feels he belongs”** 

Our monthly coffee mornings at Trinity Methodist Church also continued as a way to raise funds, but also as a great way for parents and carers to come together either with or without their children. These events became a key part of our work with families with children being educated outside of school. 

Tanga has long since progressed beyond the weekly Club, and provides support to the whole family: another key strand of our work this year was in delivering a number of parent and carer support sessions, including retreats to the woods, get togethers over coffee and a fully booked workshop with Occupational Therapists to help parents and carers to support their young people struggling with dysregulation. 

Our adapted woodland sessions have continued to be incredibly popular. With special thanks to The Badur Foundation who have been the primary funder of these sessions over the last 12 months, we have been able to provide 312 half day places, including lunch and healthy snacks, to our young beneficiaries. In addition to this, the 4 hour session creates a welcoming space for parents and carers to interact with each other over a hot drink - a meal is also provided for them. This means that in 2024-25, in addition to providing safe, educational nature-themed places to the children, we have also provided in excess of 600 healthy, hot meals to the families who attended.

## **Special Events** 

Alongside our regular Tanga Club, forest schools, coffee mornings and parent/carer sessions Tanga was also able to deliver a range of special events throughout the year, on special occasions and during school holidays to provide activities for our families. 

In April we teamed up with our local independent cinema, The Forum in Hexham, to provide a private, relaxed screening of Ghostbusters: The Frozen Empire for our families, who otherwise might struggle to attend cinema trips due to the pressures to be quiet, or sit in the dark. 

Spring also saw us returning to our very popular Easter specials in Target Woods, led by the fantastic Deni Riach. Children are able to experience to the tremendous benefits of connecting with nature in a safe, but adventurous space. Tanga in the Woods took place weekly during school holidays between April and October, making it a familiar and much-loved part of the Tanga programme. This year we added an extra 2 sessions - both after school to provide an evening event like no other. 

## **“I love being in the woods with Deni! My favourite part is exploring the woods and making dens with my friends”** 

As the summer came Tanga took 60 children and their families on a special trip on the South Tynedale Railway during May Half Term and 42 children plus parents and carers joined us for our first ever day at Calvert Trust Kielder, a specialist outdoor activity centre in Kielder Forest - which caters for guests with a range of learning and physical disabilities. Calvert Trust Kielder is a fellow local charity, offering our group the opportunity to participate in outward bound activities which ordinarily may not be available to them due to lack of accommodations, too many people, lack of fully trained staff or understanding about our group and how we function. It is also home to Europe’s only fully adapted Zip Coaster, which everyone can access regardless of mobility considerations. The feedback was 100% positive and we plan to run more of these sessions into the next year, subject to funding. 

In October we marked Halloween and October Half Term with two very special events, firstly our annual trip to Center Parcs and secondly our final trip to Target Woods for a Halloween Party. We are so grateful to our funders and to the team at Center Parcs to be able to bring families each year to take part in activities and enjoy the spaces at Center Parcs, this trip is subsidised by funding from several sources including Postcode Neighbourhood Trust, Albert Hunt Trust and The Ballinger Charitable Trust. For many of our families is the only way that they can access this kind of holiday and for some this is the only break they are able to take during the year. This trip has become almost like our version of an accessible, supported residential visit. 

Also in October, we facilitated another of our parent carer retreat days - we gathered in the woods to learn from a trained Bushcraft instructor how to forage - and what to forage - and how to make Elderberry cordial to boost immunity throughout the winter. This important bonding activity helped parents and carers to relax and they felt able to share their troubles and experiences with others who are like-minded. They were also able to get support and advice from Tanga. 

As Christmas approached, we treated families to 3 festive events, firstly a trip to Alnwick Garden to see the fantastic light trail through this amazing garden and enjoy Europe’s largest playground, albeit during the onset of a winter storm! We were able to provide coach transport for this trip meaning that more families were able to access this fabulous way to kick off the festive season. Closer to home we teamed up with the team at the Forum Cinema again for a relaxed screening (albeit with 100 people!) of Elf and hosted a Christmas Party with a very special guest as Santa himself made an appearance!

## **Thanks to our funders & supporters** 

None of our work would be possible without the support of our funders, who provide core funding to cover staffing, premises costs and project costs for activities and events. This year we were funded by: National Lottery; Postcode Neighbourhood Trust; Karbon Homes; Ballinger Charitable Trust; Hospital of God at Greatham; Hexham Town Council; Sir James Knott; The Badur Foundation; Albert Hunt Trust; Masonic Charitable Foundation; Community Foundation Tyne & Wear 1989 Willan Trust; Joicey Trust; Prime Trust at the Community Foundation Tyne & Wear; Tynedale Lions; Arnold Clark and the Co-op Local Community Fund. 

We were also honoured this year to have been chosen by a number of individuals and local organisations, who completed fundraising events and challenges for Tanga Club. A huge thank you to Broomhaugh School, Isaac Webb, Jack Stanforth and Gordon, Ebony Newton, the Tynedale Lions and Muro Lounge for all the cake sales, epic bike rides and even a murder mystery evening to raise funds to support Tanga Club this year. We were also grateful for the support of those people who supported us through the PayPal giving fund. 

## **Looking ahead** 

2024/25 was a great year for Tanga Club which saw us tackle some operational challenges, emerging as a stronger and more prepared organisation. Taking further steps into employing staff, ensuring a good wage and making a commitment to flexible working practices to support our employees who are carers of those with SEND or have SEND themselves. We look forward to extending our employment base to bring in more support and provision for our core activities and the capacity to respond to new demands in 2025/26. 

Tanga Club continues to be well attended and supported. 2025/26 will see us broaden our offer, responding to more families with different levels of accessibility needs and requirements, offering new and exciting activities. To enable us to understand the range of challenges faced by families, we will continue to look to expand our board of Trustees, bringing in members with more diverse lived experiences of SEND. 

The Trustees are incredibly proud of the great work Tanga does for families in our community and will continue to support the organisation, its staff and volunteers and the families it serves to be sustainable, relevant and thriving. 

## **Financial review** 

## _**Policy on reserves**_ 

It is the policy of Tanga Club to seek and maintain a reserves policy of six months operating costs. The unrestricted reserves at 31 March 2025 of £35,573 therefore falls within the agreed level. **SIGNED SECURELY**

## **Trustees' Report** 

The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## _**Objects and aims**_ 

Tanga Club is a registered charity which has formed a network for families who have children with and without additional needs, disabilities or other vulnerabilities. We provide social activities for children and young people up to age 25, and support for parents, carers and families. We aim to be fully inclusive, meaning that any child can access our services - regardless of ability or disability. Our overall offering is based around this inclusiveness and offers: 

- youth groups 

- forest schools 

- support groups 

- retreats for parent carers 

- advocacy, training and workshops 

- equipment and toy hire 

- a reference library 

- school holiday activities 

- groups for children not able to attend school 

- trips away from the area including a weekend away for up to 160 people 

We have in excess of 600 active members who travel from four counties to attend our provisions. In 2024 we have extended the employee base of the charity, taking on another member of staff to assist with projects and fundraising increasing our capacity to deliver great events for our family members. The staff and Trustees are primarily parent carers to young people who have special educational needs and disabilities, and we draw on our lived experience in combination with feedback from our beneficiary group to shape the services that we offer. We continue to be well supported on a voluntary basis. 

Our charitable objectives are: 

The advancement in life of young people with special educational needs and disabilities through: 

(i) the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interests of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life; 

(ii) providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society; 

(iii) the provision of support to parents and carers of children with special educational needs and disabilities by providing information, advice and guidance. 

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

## **Structure, governance and management Financial instruments** 

## _**Objectives and policies**_ 

The charity's activities expose it to a number of financial risks including credit risk, cash flow risk and liquidity risk. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the charity’s policies approved by the board of trustees, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives to manage these risks. The charity does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. 

## _**Cash flow risk**_ 

The charity’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The charity uses foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swap contracts to hedge these exposures. 

Interest bearing assets and liabilities are held at fixed rate to ensure certainty of cash flows. 

## _**Credit risk**_ 

The charity’s principal financial assets are bank balances and cash, trade and other receivables, and investments. The charity’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. The amounts presented in the balance sheet are net of allowances for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment is made where there is an identified loss event which, based on previous experience, is evidence of a reduction in the recoverability of the cash flows. 

The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. 

The charity has no significant concentration of credit risk, with exposure spread over a large number of counterparties and customers.

## **Tanga Club** 

## **Trustees' Report** 

## _**Liquidity risk**_ 

In order to maintain liquidity to ensure that sufficient funds are available for ongoing operations and future developments, the charity uses a mixture of long-term and short-term debt finance. Further details regarding liquidity risk can be found in the Statement of accounting policies in the financial statements. 

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Tanga Club for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law 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 to: 

- 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 keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company 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 charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Tanga Club ("the Company")** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of Tanga Club 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 your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the 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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Tanga Club as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts 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 accounts 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 accounts to be reached.

## **Tanga Club** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## **1 Charity status** 

The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £Nil towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation. 

The address of its registered office is: The Tanga Hub Gilesgate Hexham Northumberland NE46 3NP 

## **2 Accounting policies** 

## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates** 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Tanga Club meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements. 

## **Income and endowments** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Page 11 



## **Tanga Club** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and 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. 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. 

## **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 to 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 charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

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. 

## **Support costs** 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £100.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

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: 

|**Asset class**|**Depreciation method and rate**|
|---|---|
|Fixtures & Fittings|15% Reducing balance basis|
|Office Equipment|20% Straight line basis|

## **Tanga Club** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **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 in value. 

## **Trade creditors** 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **Borrowings** 

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing. 

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges. 

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 

Page 13 



## **Tanga Club** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## **Financial instruments** 

## _**Classification**_ 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
