York Down Syndrome Support Group Trustees' Report For The Year Ended 31 December 2024

The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Objectives and Activities

Aims and Objectives

To create and develop the conditions which will enable our children with Down Syndrome to attain their full potential.

The Objective of YDSSG

We are a parent-led support group based in York in the UK. Our overall aim is to create and develop the conditions which will enable those with Down Syndrome to attain their full potential.

We aim to support all those involved in the lives of people with Down Syndrom including family members and professionals in York and the surrounding area.

What we aim to do:

The trustees always ensure that the activities we undertake are in line with our charitable objects and aims.

Affiliations to National charities

Our group is affiliated with two national Charities:

Both charities support the group’s activities, both behind the scenes and relating to activities and training. They provide us with access to services such as group insurance, DBS checks, funding advice, specialist training and adventure/holiday opportunities for members.

How we work

The Charity delivers its charitable aims with four focus areas:

Funds raised support educational and information provision, resources and subsidise social events. Monthly committee meetings include reviews and ongoing activity planning.

Public Benefit

The trustees confirm they have had due regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance.

The CIO advances the wellbeing and inclusion of people with Down’s syndrome and supports their families in the York by providing information, peer support, advocacy, training and inclusive activities. Services are free or subsidised and open without unjustifiable restriction.

Benefits include reduced isolation, increased confidence and improved access to services for families, and better awareness among local professionals and communities. We monitor attendance and feedback to evidence impact and to improve what we do.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

Achievements and Performance

Education

Speech and language, and communication support.

For many years we have delivered a Speech and Language programme “Chatterbox” based on a group model planned and delivered by a professional speech and language therapist. Following the retirement of our long-established Speech and language therapist in July 2023, we were delighted to welcome Gwendolina Toner, one of the country’s leading specialists in the speech, language, and communication needs of those with Down Syndrome, into the role.

We were grateful to The Steiner School in Fulford for hosting the groups on their restart in early 2024. Between February and July, we supported 3 groups – a weekly group for early years/KS1 children and 2 fortnightly groups for children in KS2. We sought an alternative venue for the autumn term sessions, hosting them at Heslington Church.

The input required during 2024 from a Trustee to administer, manage and oversee Chatterbox has been significant. We were fortunate to receive grant funding during the year and used some of this to employ Jo Bryenton as a coordinator to take over this role. Despite the engagement of paid support mid-way through the year, over 2024 Chatterbox became increasingly difficult to deliver.

The younger group experienced a drop in numbers for a mixture of reasons (one family moved away and a neighbouring support group objected to their members attending our sessions as well as theirs). In the older groups fortnightly arrangements led to a lack of continuity. This lack of continuity was particularly acute if a session was missed. For the Autumn term we reinstated a weekly session for the older group and utilized the services of two student volunteers to support the groups, in the hope that this would enable a better focus on individual learning needs.

Despite the changes to approach we introduced, it became apparent from the professional advice that we were receiving that the speech and language therapy needs of the children in the Chatterbox groups were getting more diverse as they grew and developed. The model of supporting S&LT needs in a group setting was difficult for our professional therapist to accommodate in a meaningful way that would have clinical impact.

Over and above the input of the therapist, considerable input was required from a trustee or our coordinator with regards to admin. It meant that by the end of the year our committee had started to reconsider the viability of the Chatterbox format. The committee believe that as a group we need to focus on how we might better support the needs of all, and not just children who are primary school aged as Chatterbox has done.

We were sad to bring Chatterbox to a close, however we believe that a review of all our options in delivering therapeutic Speech and language therapy, as well as communication support more generally should be the best approach. In doing this we hope to identify a wider range of options for supporting SaLT and better meet the bespoke needs of a larger group of families.

Educational training

Following a change in approach to training last year, YDSSG’s training team (Laura Swales and Jo Bryenton) have continued to deliver two “fixed” sessions to teaching staff and any parents who wish to attend one on July and a repeat in October. They continue to offer bespoke sessions in individual settings.

We have covered the learning profile of a child with Down Syndrome (DS) and how to teach and support a child with DS. We have also been able to tailor the sessions around the specific needs of the individual child and deliver sessions on a day/time to suit the school. Laura has provided personalised advice to a family about seeking an EHCP.

We continue to support professionals and parents where possible by responding to emails and sharing relevant resources and courses. We also host a dedicated closed Facebook group which is open to any professional supporting the families in our locality.

Health training Members of the group have participated in sessions training health care workers and midwives in the Dept of Health Studies at the University of York. This input, describing our lived experience was well received.

OT workshops and training Over the Summer holidays our group was fortunate to benefit from a series of Occupational Therapy workshops and training from local York Occupational practice “OT4me”. The practice has particular expertise in sensory integration. The workshops and training took place over the 6-week holiday period and was paid for by a grant from the Brelms Trust. Those attending provided very positive feedback.

Benefits workshop At the beginning of the year the group benefitted from a workshop led by the North Yorkshire based Welfare Benefits Unit. The session focussed on the change in various benefits experienced when young people transition to adult benefits. The session proved extremely informative.

Social and sporting activities

Regular events

DS Yorkies Football team

The team have continue regular Monday evening football sessions at Burnholme sports centre during term time. The group includes children and young people aged approximately 10 and above. Siblings also attend and are an important part of the group. We were delighted to welcome our new volunteer coaches, Alex and Stuart, to the group in 2024. They have really thrown themselves into the club and we’re very grateful for the time that they commit to the group. We launched a junior team for younger members of the group in June. Grateful thanks also go to Rachael Harrison who has continued to co-ordinate the group.

Sing and Sign Maestros

Our Sing and Sign Maestros (S&SM) group for people aged 14 plus has continued to thrive with the leadership of Jo Bryenton who also provides all Makaton support, alongside Ben Whittaker, the musical director of the choir. Their close collaboration with Stamford Bridge Community Choir continues. Notable activities for S&SM in 2024 included headlining the “This is Me” festival in Ripon, a trip to Whitby for an impromptu busking session during the summer and fish and chip outings to Thompsons. Plans for a “junior Sing and Sign Maestros” for younger children are afoot for 2025, following a successful funding application.

History and Archaeology Club – Dig It!

Our post 16 History and archaeology club continued to meet once a month for most months throughout 2024. As part of Skipwith Heritage group’s HLF project “Searching for Skipwith” they learnt about Skipwith and its medieval development, visiting the village and church.

They also had a go at re-creating the famous “Raganok” stone carving from the church using clay. Thanks to Sue Clayton for hosting the group’s meeting and supporting the creative crafting activity. Also thanks to Jon Kenny, a community archaeologist who provides the professional/archaeological facilitation for the group.

Other social activities

Summer activities day

...CONTINUED During the summer holidays staff from Nestle offered to support an activities day. This was great fun and group members of all ages came along to sing, play, dance, play games and do some crafts.

Wet Wheels

Our group were grateful to benefit from a further Wet Wheels outing on their speed boat paid for by the Alan Bott Charity, before is closed. We have been very grateful to have benefited from the generous support of that charity whilst it operated in and around York.

York Model Engineers trip for families

Another annual event was the trip to the York Model Engineers’ club. All who attend very much enjoyed the club’s hospitality and riding on different model trains. Many thanks to the club for being such generous hosts and showing our group such kindness over many years.

Phab led activities

Our group continues to benefit from its affiliation with the national charity “Phab”. Phab organises several adventurous activities during the year which our group members have been able to benefit from joining. These include a flying day, indoor skiing and outdoor adventure holidays.

Swimming at the open-air pool in Helmsley

The group hired the open-air swimming pool at Helmsley for a group session during August. All had a great time.

Christmas Tree festival

This year our group again decorated a tree for the York Minster Christmas Tree festival. We held two workshops to make decorations during the months leading up to the festival with the theme of animals and led by Sue Clayton who is a community artist. The tree was on display throughout December, and we were delighted to be voted as the winner of the best Charity Tree in the public vote for the second successive year.

Inclusive Minster Carol Concert

Our group, led by our Sing and Sign Maestros also participated in the 2024 inclusive carol service at York Minster alongside other York based SEND groups.

Fundraising

St Crux Cafes

The group hosted two cafes in the community at St Crux Church during the year. The first took place on 21st March to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day. The second took place in September. Both were very well attended and in addition to raising funds helped raise the group’s profile in the community.

York 10K

This year the group became a partner Charity for the York 10K. Our group benefitted from the support of 21 runners and 12 volunteer marshals as they took to the streets of York in early August. We were extremely grateful to all the runners and the race marshals for all their hard work. The fundraising total raised from event sponsorship exceeded £4400.

321 Lottery

In March the group launched its monthly “321 Lottery club”. Members pay £24 annually or £2 monthly for a number in the lottery. Prize money comprises 35% of funds raised in the month. 65% of funds are retained by the group to fund its activities. The lottery is drawn on 21st of every month. For most of the year we maintained a regular membership who purchased 60 numbers per month.

York Down Syndrome Support Group Trustees' Report (continued) For The Year Ended 31 December 2024

Grant funding applications

Our group’s success in attaining grant funding and donations from charitable trusts continued during the year. Grants or donations were received from 7 charitable organisations: The Two Ridings Foundation, The Liz and Terry Bramhall foundation, The Pavers Charity, York Children’s Trust, The Brelms Trust, The Hillards Trust and the Lilian and Kenneth Harrison Trust to fund a variety of our activities.

We continue to welcome new families to the group, both those moving into the area and those who were resident in the city at time of birth. York Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust have a regular supply of new-parent information packs on their ante-natal, maternity and children’s wards in both York and Scarborough. This year we have also supplied information to the maternity team at Harrogate Hospital.

Information gathering and dissemination

A key part of the group’s activities is sharing information that might be relevant to our families about national policy developments, local consultations and activities that are organised by other voluntary groups or statutory bodies. Information about the Down Syndrome Act, legislation relating to health and social care, benefits rules, parent carer forum activity, as well as more general information relating to support for families is shared via a closed Facebook group and an email list.

York Down Syndrome Support Group Notes to the Financial Statements For The Year Ended 31 December 2024

1. General Information

York Down Syndrome Support Group is a charitable incorporated organisation registered with the Charity Commission, registered charity number 1193370. The principal address is Holly Cottage, Wheldrake Lane, York, YO19 4SQ.

2. Statement of Compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) "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)", Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities Act 2011.

3. Accounting Policies

3.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

3.2. Incoming Resources

Basis of recognition

The CIO prepares its accounts on a receipts and payments basis. Income is recorded when cash is received into the CIO’s bank account or in hand. Amounts pledged or due but not yet received at the year end are not recognised.

Unrestricted and restricted income Income is classified as:

Unrestricted where it is available to be spent at the trustees’ discretion on the charitable purposes of the CIO; and

Restricted where the donor specifies a particular purpose. Restricted income is recorded separately and applied only to that purpose.

Donations and general fundraising

Voluntary income (including general donations, collections, sponsorships, and event receipts) is recognised on receipt. Refunds of event costs from participants or suppliers are netted against the related receipts where appropriate.

Grants

Grants received are recognised when the funds are received. Where a grant is expressly restricted to a specific project or activity, it is treated as restricted income. Grants received that relate to future periods are not deferred under the receipts and payments basis; any unspent balance at the year end remains within the relevant fund.

Gift Aid

Gift Aid reclaimable on donations is recognised as income when the tax repayment is received from HMRC. Gift Aid due but not yet received at the year end is not accrued.

Activities to generate funds / trading

Income from the sale of goods or services, charity sales, raffles and other trading activities is recognised when cash is received. Any amounts collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from income and held as agency funds.

Donated goods, facilities and services

Non-cash gifts and donated facilities or services are not included in the receipts and payments accounts because no cash is received. Significant donated items may be described in the trustees’ report.

Page 12

York Down Syndrome Support Group Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For The Year Ended 31 December 2024

3.3. Resources Expended

Accounting policy

Payments are recorded on a receipts and payments basis; expenditure is recognised when cash is paid from the CIO’s bank account or from cash in hand. No accruals are made for costs incurred but unpaid at the year end.

Analysis of payments by activity

Charitable activities

Direct costs of delivering services and activities to beneficiaries, including staff and sessional costs, venue hire, materials, travel, programme subscriptions, safeguarding and other project delivery costs.

Raising funds

Costs incurred to obtain voluntary income and grants, including fundraising events, publicity, website and marketing, fundraising platform fees, and the proportion of staff and support costs attributable to fundraising.

Governance

Costs associated with the governance of the CIO, including independent examination, preparation of statutory accounts, trustee meetings and training, annual return and registration fees, and an appropriate share of support costs relating to strategic oversight and compliance.

Support costs and cost allocation

Support (overhead) costs—such as general administration, office supplies, insurance, IT and telecoms, bank charges, and a proportion of staff and premises costs—are apportioned across the above headings on a reasonable and consistent basis (e.g. by staff time, direct cost, or usage). The basis of apportionment is reviewed annually.

Trustees and related disclosures

No remuneration was paid to trustees during the year (prior year: £nil).

Expenses reimbursed to trustees totaled £ 49 (prior year: £ 0 ) for reimbursement for Aprons. (prior year: £0 ).

R elated-party payments were made during the year of £100 (prior year: £ 100 ). Any related-party transactions are undertaken at arm’s length and in the CIO’s best interests.

3.4. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
