Trustees’ Report for the period ended 31 August 2024

The Trustees present their report and the independently examined accounts for the period ended 31 August 2024.

Objectves

The charity exists to meet the following objectives:

1. To advance the education of children and young people aged between 5 and 16, in particular those who are neurodivergent, but also physically disabled children, through the provision of a special school or schools.

2. To relieve the needs of neurodivergent individuals, their families and carers, in such ways as the trustees may from time to time decide.

4

Vision

We continue to aim for an inclusive society where neurodivergent young people, adults and their families are able to live safe, sustainable and independent lives. We will achieve this through offering training, education, outreach and community opportunities.

5

Purpose

To support and advocate for all neurodivergent people across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight by providing safe spaces (whether in person or online) and educational opportunities. Also to provide awareness, and promote acceptance as a trusted, authentic and professional neurodivergent-led charity.

We continue to provide support to neurodivergent families and adults, through peer support groups via the Koala Hub (a community hub for our beneficiary groups). Peer support groups ranged from Toddler groups to Teen groups to adult groups (both online and in person).

Our education provision now includes a growing alternative provision. This alternative provision provides parttime education to young people who cannot access a traditional education setting. This is achieved through 1:1 tutoring and our distance learning boxes.

Structure, Governance and Management

More Education continues to support autistic and otherwise neurodivergent young people and adults across Hampshire. This financial year has seen the education provision develop nationally and the community provision support young people and adults from Hampshire, Wiltshire and Berkshire.

All Trustees of More Education are volunteers and recruited following an open application process. Trustees hold office until the conclusion of the meeting of Trustees in the calendar year of the third anniversary of their appointment by may be re-appointed at that meeting of Trustees.

The charity is guided by the charity’s constitutional document.

The Trustees continue to retain a diverse breadth of experience across the board as well as the inclusion of autistic individuals . Following the resignation of treasurer Victoria Laverty, the trustees would like to take the opportunity to thank Victoria for her service in the role and wish her every success for the future.

The Trustees maintain a formal risk review process whereby risks to the charity’s activities are captured, assessed, assigned an owner, and what action is to be taken towards mitigating these risks. This ‘Risk Register’ is reviewed at each meeting of the Trustee Board and a full internal risk assessment is incorporated into the annual planning process. At all times the Trustees give due regard to the Charity Commission guidance CC26, ‘Charities and risk management’.

The More Education Trustee Board meets quarterly; in the reporting period the Trustee Board met four times. Every meeting of the Trustee Board considers reports on the operation of More Education services and fundraising activities, management accounts, safeguarding, risks to ongoing service delivery, and specific items for decision. Between the quarterly meetings, the operational team and trustees met regularly.

Operational management, including the management of fundraising, employment and volunteers is Managed by Tori Rist, CEO. Trustees, at all times, retain oversight and make decisions affecting the delivery of the charity’s objectives.

6

This year has seen the introduction of a Delegation of Authority framework and policy which has provided further clarity for operational staff and trustees alike.

Without the support of our operational volunteer team, we would not be able to continue our peer support work. Our dedicated and reliable team of 12 people (mostly neurodivergent themselves) continue to support our community work and among them we have teen volunteers. Volunteer hours has risen exponentially since the charity opened, from 336 hours in our first year of operations to nearly 2,000 hours during this period.

Safeguarding and Health and Safety continues to be a fundamental focus within the charity, even more so as we move towards the development of our first exclusive use community and education site.

Operatonal Overview

More Education now trades exclusively as Koala. Offering support for Community, Education and Outreach these provisions all sit within the Koala brand. This ensures that there is less confusion around the different elements of support that the charity offers.

Whilst the peer support groups continue to grow and develop, the demand for support remains high. More adults in crisis are accessing our services and we hope to expand on the recent mentorship project to provide more support groups and 1:1 opportunities for adults, in particular.

The demand for Koala’s community support continues to grow. This period saw 4,214 spaces offered to the community over the course of the year. These spaces saw a 55% uptake, compared to 43% in the previous period. The Koala community filled 2,331 peer support session spaces, an increase from last year which saw 3,284 spaces offered and 1,622 spaces filled; a take up of 49%.

A focus for the next financial period will be to move into 83 High Street and provide our community with the sustainable and safe space that they have always needed.

7

The co-produced Self Advocacy project (in Partnership with the Hampshire and IOW NHS ICB) proved a great success, leading to Koala being awarded ‘Best Co-Production’ at the 2023 National Advocacy Awards in Birmingham. This led to the training being funded by the Hampshire and IOW ICB for a further year, leading to a further 20 adults receiving self-advocacy training.

It is hoped that funding for this training will continue, given that all attendees reported to finding the training a real support towards more independent living.

Koala’s education offer grew from strength to strength during this period. At the end of the previous period, our education provision was supporting 5 young people through a mixture of 1:1 tutoring and our distance learning programme. This year has seen unprecedented growth with us now supporting 23 young people and expanding into North Yorkshire and Surrey with the distance learning provision.

This financial period also saw the charity embark on a project to find our own exclusive site. Having moved twice since opening, and the uncertainty it causes the community, the trustees felt that it was a good time to move towards opening a designated Koala site.

With support from Test Valley Borough Council, Koala have successfully negotiated the 5 year lease of 83 High Street, Andover and hope to move into the space in the next financial year. The site will give Koala’s community the comfort of knowing that we will not need to move again for a considerable time and also allow the charity to expand it’s education offering to include in person group learning.

The focus remains to sustain community support, continue to develop Koala’s alternative education provision and work towards the opening of the full-time school.

Financial Review

This financial year has seen the growth of the staff team and the continued growth of the education provision. Whilst the education provision continues to be self-sustaining, accessing grants to sustain the community element of the charity has been extremely difficult. Many avenues of statutory grant funding have ceased this year giving real concern as to the sustainability of the community element of the charity.

Despite these difficulties, Children in Need confirmed 3 years of funding for half of our young person peer support groups, with the National Lottery supporting the additional young person groups for the coming year. Without this support, and the support of a private donor, we would not have been able to sustain the community element of the charity.

The staff team has grown from 3 full-time and 3 part-time to 4 full-time and 7 part-time staff. The staff members have been funded through grants, fees paid to the education project and the extremely generous donations of

8

an anonymous donor. Without these supporters we could not have moved the charity to the next phase of development and the trustees are extremely grateful for their support.

Grants, Fundraising and Sustainability

The Trustees would like to thank Co-op Community Fund, Children in Need, National Lottery, Hampshire County Council, Hampshire and IOW NHS ICB, Lloyds Bank, Burdock Valley Players and our private donor for their support and funding during our third year of operations.

Whilst the project is ongoing, nearly all of the funding has now been raised to mobilise 83 High Street and this has only been achieved due to the support of Test Valley Borough Council, Stannah, Andover Town Council, CoOp Community Grants and County Councillor Phil North. Without the support of these organisations, we could not have raised the substantial amount needed to commence the fit out of the building.

This year also saw the charity embarking on our first ‘Walk the Testway’ 25 mile walk which also raised valuable funds for the fit-out of the new hub. This was a gruelling walk that both our Head of Education and Chair of Trustees completed.

Other fundraisers for this period included Julie Stratton, Charlie Thomas and Kate Underwood HR who all completed individual fundraising events to raise money for Koala – from boxing to marathons! The trustees are very grateful to all of those who have taken the time and effort to raise valuable funds for the charity.

Koala’s peer support groups are free to attend, yet donations are encouraged where possible. These donations are used to cover the core costs of running the groups – from room rent to resource costs. In this period, attendance donations were approximately £1267. This is a fall in donations from £1650 in the previous period and shows the difficulties that many charities are facing with regards to fundraising.

The Trustees aim is now to ensure that we have a robust strategy for continuing the support that Koala currently offers, as well as building the support that will be available through the charities Educational provision.

Reserves

The building of reserves, to cover 3 months’ operational costs, continues to be a core aim of the charity. Whilst it is extremely difficult to build reserves in the current charity landscape, this will continue to be a priority for the charity.

9

Actvites, Achievements and Refectons

Koala’s community offer has continued to grow and the 1:1 support that we can now also offer to our adults has proven invaluable.

The Adult Mentorship Pilot, funded by Hampshire County Council, has now supported 30 adults with both practical and mental health areas of their lives. It is hoped that Koala can now build upon this project and offer even more support for the adults within our community.

Being awarded ‘Best Co-Production’ at the 2023 National Advocacy Awards in Birmingham has been a highlight of this year and illustrates how fundamental community involvement is when the charity creates new projects. The self-advocacy training now continues within the community with both on-line and in-person options being offered.

The exponential growth of the education sector of Koala has been a particular highlight of the year. Supporting such a large number of young people, with varying needs, has been an area that the charity has excelled. A culmination of strong operational management, via the Head of Education, and a dedicated and specialist team of teachers, the trustees hope that this provision will continue to grow into the next year.

Refectons

The work of the charity continues to evolve and grow, yet the breadth of support has now stablised. In the last financial report the Trustees and senior management team felt that it was important to focus on key areas of the charity’s provision and this has proven to be a successful and worthwhile strategy.

The Trustees continue to develop the strategy, alongside staff, to ensure that the core values of collaboration and relationships remain at the core of the charity and continue to guide the journey of the charity.

The school continues to be the driving focus for the senior management team and Trustees and it is hoped that progress will be made in this area over the next year.

Future Vision

As we move into our fourth year of operations, it is important that the charity continue to find ways to become financially sustainable.

Our focus will be to continue offering support through the hub’s peer support groups but to also continue to expand the education provision, all whilst ensuring that our staffing and financial structure ensures longevity and stability for both the charity and the community we serve.
