I took over as Clinic Manager and Speech and Language Therapist in January 2023. Since then, Sophie Lewis joined the team as an Occupational Therapist in July, and Alley Akoh joined as a freelance Art Therapist in September. Louise Stone continues to offer Music Therapy and we have a regular volunteer, Joe Cook, who contacts parents and helps with the running of the clinic. Anna Deane has also joined the team as a freelance administrator, supporting the therapists and enabling them to work with more families. Thank you all for your hard work and support. The clinic space has also grown, we have an additional two rooms we now use for therapy sessions, and we are in the process of building an accessible playground for clinic families to use. Our therapists have achieved 74% of all goals set in clinic. ## **Jan Fishwick, Chair of Trustees** Our new Clinic Manager joined us at the beginning of the year and has led with vision and energy. A range of new therapists have joined the team, all supported by an administrator and a parent liaison volunteer. More children and families are being provided with much needed services, although a waiting list still builds reflecting the unmet needs of many. Messy Church began in September which is enjoyed by families and also raises more awareness of Growing Hope High Wycombe in the community. To support this growth in services, very encouragingly, our budget is balanced thanks to a mix of donations, grants and fundraising. There is much to thank God for! Hope for Children, Hope for Families, Hope in Jesus **4** ## **Dr Naomi Graham, Founder and CEO** This year we celebrated Growing Hope turning five years old and as I reflect back on the past five years, I’m so encouraged by the growth we have seen and the ways in which our clinics and therapists have made a difference in the lives of so many families. This year saw some particularly exciting growth within our national team which is enabling us to reach and support more families of children with additional needs across the UK. We launched our accessibility award which enables churches to receive an audit and a bronze, silver or gold award for their provision for individuals with a wide range of additional needs. We also have seen our fourth clinic set up in Gateshead and look forward to seeing this open in 2024. I’m so encouraged by the many conversations we are having with churches nationwide, around forming partnerships and setting up clinics within the coming years. I’m delighted that we’re collaborating with All Saints Woodford Wells to set up our next clinic in Redbridge next year. I am so proud of all of the hard work of the Growing Hope team as we continue to grow hope across the UK and draw nearer to our vision of 20 clinics by 2030. ## **Trustees’ Report** The Board of Trustees presents its report and financial statements for the year 1 January 2023 - 31 December 2023 together with the Independent Examiner’s Report.

We grow hope for families where hope has been lost due to isolation or rejection. We share hope in Jesus because he brings hope even in the most difficult situations In accordance with its charity constitution, Growing Hope High Wycombe has sought to achieve the following aims and objectives in the year dated 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023. The advancement of health and wellbeing for the public benefit by the provision of a therapy clinic run in accordance with Christian principles for children and young people (0-18) with additional needs and their families living in the High Wycombe area. In particular, but not exlusively by: - registered healthcare professionals providing assessment, advice and intervention, and other services as the trustees see fit. - provision of sibling, parent and carer support groups and courses, and other services as the trustees see fit. - the advancement of the Christian faith through the opportunity to engage in conversation about faith and spiritual wellbeing and to receive prayer, and other such invitations as the trustees see fit. ## Emily has found music therapy really helpful to express lots of her difficult feelings through music and creative arts and to know that these feelings are okay. She has learnt new strategies to use throughout her week that her mum says has added to her emotional toolbox. Growing Hope High Wycombe Annual Report 2023 **7** ## This year the Growing Hope High Wycombe team has grown to four staff members, and across the year we have been joined by one regular volunteer who has supported our work through administrative tasks. **Rosalyn Baskett,** Clinic Manager and Speech and Language Therapist **Louise Stone,** Music Therapist **Sophie Lewis,** Occupational Therapist **Alley Akoh,** Freelance Art Therapist **Anna Deane,** Freelance Administrator **Joe Cook,** Volunteer Parent Liaison ## **Freddie and Jeremiah’s Stories** Jeremiah and Freddie enjoyed their music therapy sessions at Growing Hope High Wycombe, where they focused on musical communication. Turntaking, talking and concentrating are challenging activities for Jeremiah and Freddie, but through their sessions with our music therapist Louise, they progressed each week through attention-grabbing activities and musical action songs. Hope for Children, Hope for Families, Hope in Jesus **8** ## **Hope for Children** We have provided therapy for **98 children and young people.** Examples of goals have been emotional regulation, attention and listening, social skills, toileting dressing and eating. **74% of therapy goals** have been achieved. We have provided free occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, art therapy, and music therapy in the St James’ Downley church building. We have worked on individualised goals to support children and families in the areas of greatest need. ## ## **We have run:** **Two When Dreams Change courses** , a four-week course that aims to help parents and carers reflect on their experience of having a child with additional needs, and to become more of the person they have been created to be. **One Siblings Group course** , a seven-week course that aims to enable brothers and sisters of children with additional needs to share their experiences of being a sibling and connect with other children with similar experiences. **21 training sessions for parents and carers** , fortnightly sessions on a variety of topics, hosted by our therapists in partnership with Growing Hope National, King’s Cross and Brockley. Feedback has been that **84% of goals have been met** within our courses. Growing Hope High Wycombe Annual Report 2023 **9** ## **Hope in Jesus** We believe Jesus brings hope even in the most difficult situations. We always offer to pray for families at the end of each therapy session, several families have taken up this offer and it has been a privilege to see answers to prayer. Our Clinic Manager Rosalyn also works on a Sunday to support families to access church with the help of Growing Hope champions. This year we have had eight volunteers serving alongside children and youth ministry to help families feel welcome. We also have nine champions who advocate and support Growing Hope High Wycombe across different churches in Wycombe. We are now offering children’s work every Sunday at St James's Downley and are setting up a Messy Church. One family who have come along to St James’ said “it was great for us as a family to come along to a church where our children were accepted without the need to explain, apologise or justify ourselves. Having resources that our children could access helped them to settle easily. It gave me and my husband the freedom to worship in a place where our children felt loved and seen”. Growing Hope is open to individuals of all faiths and backgrounds and there is no pressure to participate in the faith aspects of our service. **----- Start of picture text -----**

Hope for Children, Hope for Families, Hope in Jesus **20** ## **Growing Hope High Wycombe Notes to the Financial Statements For the year 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023** ## **1. Accounting Policies** ## **Incorporation** Growing Hope High Wycombe was registered in England and Wales with the Charity Commission as a CIO Foundation on 26 July 2021. These financial statements are for the period 01 January 2023 to 31 December 2023. ## **Basis of Preparation** The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). The Charity is a public benefit entity for the purposes of FRS 102 and therefore the charity also prepared its financial statements in accordance with the 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 Charities SORP) and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. ## **Going Concern Basis** The trustees have assessed whether the use of going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of these financial statements. In particular, the trustees have considered the charity’s forecasts and projections and have taken account of pressure on income. After making enquiries, the trustees have concluded that there Growing Hope High Wycombe Annual Report 2023 **21** is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operations existence for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing financial statements. ## **Income** Income is recognised in the period which it was receivable. Also included is the estimated value of gifts in kind and goods or services donated to the charity where the amounts are material, readily quantifiable and measurable. Such estimates are based on the market price the charity would otherwise have paid. ## **Expenditure** Direct charitable expenditure comprises all expenditure relating to the activities carried out to achieve the objectives. Expenditure is allocated directly to the expenditure headings as far as practically possible to reflect the activities of the charity. Support costs have been allocated to the activities based on employee time spent on that activity. Expenditure is included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered. 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. ## **Fund Accounting** Restricted funds are subject to restrictions imposed by the donor. These are accounted for separately from unrestricted funds. The movements on restricted funds in the period are shown in note 9 to the accounts. Unrestricted funds are those which are not subject to restrictions, and any surpluses may be applied in furtherance of any of the charity’s objectives. Hope for Children, Hope for Families, Hope in Jesus **22** ## **Cash and Cash Equivalents** Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and in hand and shortterm deposits with a maturity date of three months or less. ## **Debtors and Creditors** Debtors and creditors receivable or payable within one year of the reporting date are carried at their transaction price. Debtors and creditors that are receivable or payable in more than one year and not subject to a market rate of interest are measured at the present value of the expected future receipts or payment discounted at a market rate of interest. ## **Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation** Tangible fixed assets costing less than £500 are not capitalised and are written off in the year of purchase. Depreciation is provided so as to write off the cost of the fixed assets over their estimated useful lives. A full year’s depreciation is charged in the year of purchase. Depreciation is charged at the following annual rates: Computer and Office Equipment: 4 Years straight line Clinic Equipment: 4 Years straight line ## **Pension** The charity operates a defined contribution stakeholder pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from the charity. ## **Critical Accounting Estimates and Areas of Judgement** The annual depreciation charge for property, plant and equipment is sensitive to change in useful economic life and residual values of assets. These are reassessed annually. In the view of the trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no other judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year.
