The charity objects are as follows:

Public benefit statement

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, 'Charities and Public Benefit'.

Summary of the main achievements during the period

Nai's House is an amalgamation of youth and wellbeing services, offering a unique user-led model, and delivered by volunteers who have their own experiences of poor mental health and are powered by a passion to affect change in their community. We provide immediate, confidential, flexible, and easy to access holistic mental health support in a non-clinical setting for children and young adults.

The charity’s policy on reserves

All reserves are carried forward to the following year to fund ongoing charitable activities. Restricted funds are ring-fenced and regularly reviewed to ensure that all expenditure remains in line with the restrictions and purpose of the funds, as set out upon receipt of such restricted fund.

Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees.

Melissa Morbeck Coke-Smyth, Chair 4th December 2024

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of NAI’S HOUSE Charitable Incorporated Organisation for the period ended 31 March 2024

I report on the accounts of the charity, which are set out on pages 6 to 8.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
Follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
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 from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence 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:

which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
