TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2025
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the W4 Youth Limited for the year 1 March 2024 to 28 February 2025. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The Charity's objectives are, for the public benefit, to advance life and relieve the needs of young people aged between 11 and 19 years old in the Ealing and Hounslow areas of London.
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)'.
b. Strategies for achieving objectives
The Charity aims to achieve its objectives through:
1) The provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare and designed to improve the lives of young people.
2) The provision of support and activities to develop the skills, capacities and capabilities of young people in order to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals.
c. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
During the last year we have continued full operational activities with two donated hubs and the use of the local church hall.
We have a four day per week timetable of football, basketball, boxing fitness, musical theatre and street dance between 5pm and 8:30pm with over 200 attendances per week.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2025
Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the Company
The main achievement in the year was to raise sufficient funds to grow our activities to a fuller four day per week, programme between 5:00pm and 8:30pm supporting young people in the community with somewhere safe to go and something good to do.
We set up our own Friday Night 5's for local youth clubs this year and have four of our own teams in the league. This has given young people across West London the opportunity to integrate with others in a safe environment free of charge to all.
We have started boxing fitness classes four nights per week which have proved very popular with the young people.
As a result of the new activities our membership has grown significantly. Our street dance and musical theatre continues to be popular with the young people performing in street dance competitions and performing numerous times in the year at local events and shows.
In January 2025 we started a Train the Trainer programme where ten of our young people engaged in a 16 week leadership training programme based on four key competencies. This included 1:1 and group coaching as well as completing their basic FA qualifications. All participants successfully completed the programme and have started coaching and refereeing matches with W4 Youth on a regular basis.
Finally we received the planning permission for the second hub for storage for our equipment and this has provided additional space in the original hub for inside activities.
b. Review of activities
The method of fundraising during the last quarter of this financial year was based upon reaching out to individual donors and local businesses to donate to the running of the charity as well as grant and funding applications to many organisations, including Hounslow Council, National Lottery Awards for All, Garfield Weston, Young Ealing Foundaiton, Heathrow Community Trust and London Freemasons.
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Reserves policy
Each year the Committee of Management reviews the financial position and allocates as appropriate to surplus funds, reserves in accordance with the Reserves Policy.
Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between the spending and receiving of income and to cover unplanned emergency expenditure. The Trustees consider that the ideal level of reserves would be between two and three month’s expenditure.

c. Results for the year
The Charity received donations of £61,140 in the year and had a surplus of £13,070.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
W4 Youth Limited is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the Company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.
c. Financial risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Company, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Plans for future periods
The company has been set up for a capital project to build a youth & community centre in Southfields Recreation Ground as part of a joint venture with Ealing Council. Over the next 3 years the Trustees plan to raise sufficient funds to build the youth & community centre.
The company has also been used as the vehicle which all operational activity is channelled for the running of W4 Youth from November 2022. The running of the operational activity has previously been through a charitable trust set up in 2011.
Members' liability
The Members of the Company guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the Company in the event of winding up.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2025
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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 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 then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the 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 Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2025
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of W4 Youth Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 28 February 2025.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the Trustees of the Company (and 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 the Company 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 Company's accounts 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.
This report is made solely to the Company's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Company's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

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.

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 allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
