## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 April 2024** 

## _**The main activities undertaken in relation to those purposes during the year.**_ 

The ReStart course is a high impact equine-assisted programme for improving emotional regulation and thinking skills. 5 consecutive days of 1.5 hour sessions (plus a 1 hour taster session pre course and a 1.5 hour top up session post course) concentrating on 8 core skills for those referred by frontline professionals when talking isn't working. 

Lighter touch sessions - 1-2 hour sessions: These include weekly Alternative Education and school holiday sessions (for participants who have completed the ReStart course). 

Non-verbals Toolbox workshops - For frontline professionals, participants from 12yrs+ and family members or carers. A fun and interactive 1.5 hour workshop on accurately reading body language and applying non-verbal strategies - reduce problem behaviours and build positive ones. 

## _**The main activities undertaken during the year to further the charity's purpose for the public benefit.**_ 

We supported 44 individuals this year, which is less than last year but we have delivered more in the way of ongoing support to our ReStart participants. 

We delivered TheHorseCourse ReStart programme to 34 people with multiple complex needs. We also delivered 12 holiday sessions to 13 existing ReStart participants as ongoing support. 

We delivered 2 Non-verbals toolbox workshops, one to 4 parents of service users to help them support their child following the ReStart course and one to 2 adult ReStart participants and 4 members of staff from their supporting organisation. 

We also delivered a professionals taster session to 3 members of one of our funding organisations. 

The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in managing the activities of the charity. 

## **The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year.** 

The main achievement on the Charity in the year has been maintaining our current, and continuing to form new relationships with local organisations and schools. 

We’ve continued to work in collaboration with other local organisations such as NHS addiction services, BCP Young Carers, Social Prescribing, Safe&Sound Dorset, CAMHS Dorset, STARS Dorset BCP Virtual school, Dorset Council and a number of local schools. 

We continued service delivery of our projects with Dorset Community Foundation and CAMHS and were successful in securing funding from The Valentine Charitable Trust, Albert Hunt and The Alice Ellen Cooper-Dean Charitable Foundation.

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 April 2024** 

## _**The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity.**_ 

Our beneficiaries are referred to us via other services when they are struggling to engage or respond to talk based therapy or intervention. Our purpose is to engage those individuals and offer them a different way of learning resilience skills so they can re-engage with or access their referring organisation’s support. We follow up with referrers and beneficiaries/families following completion of our ReStart course to gain an insight into how successful we have been with our intervention. Overall our follow up data has been positive, here’s a snippet of comments from some of our beneficiaries; 

‘I kind of feel more confident, focused and like I've achieved something.  Mum commented that she was impressed with her child’s focus during the course and that she looked forward to the sessions each day.  Beneficiarie’s comments during top up session – I feel more confident now, trying new things rather than think 'I'll fail' and not try.  I notice how others are feeling more and not just doing what I want.’ 

‘I feel the course has helped me to be more confident.  I have better control over my energy, I can deal with situations more positively, I feel like I've achieved something, I feel happier in myself. Course improvements - maybe the course lasts longer.  On return for a top up the beneficiary verbalised that she feels less anxious, sleeps better and is better able to read others emotions such as when they are quiet.’ 

‘Since the ReStart course I have started an English course.  I feel more motivated and calm and have started to engage with support and communicate more.  More confident and enjoy doing activities.  Enjoyed the time with the horses, physical contact and it helped my mental health.’ 

Following consultation with our beneficiaries we started Holiday Horsemanship sessions which is an opportunity for beneficiaries to return to Deeview, further develop the skills and knowledge they gained during the ReStart course and meet others who experience similar life challenges.  For many who have completed the ReStart course, isolation is a big factor in their lives.  The Holiday Horsemanship sessions offer a familiar place where they can feel safe, experience the calming effect of the horses, whilst expanding their comfort zone in meeting and interacting with new people.  We have had 13 ReStart beneficiaries attend these sessions so far, with some attending every session offered to them. 

## _**The degree to which the achievements and performance during the year have benefited wider society.**_ 

Our work has a positive impact on creating stronger communities as our participants re-engage with family, friends, education and support services, decreasing their future likelihood of becoming socially excluded, reliant on support services and government funding and increasing the likelihood of them being able to support themselves and be active members of society.

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 April 2024** 

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of  the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . 

In particular, charity law requires the Trustees, if they prepare accounts on an accruals basis, to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to :- 

- prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of 

- recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with regulations made under the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. 

This report was approved by the board of trustees on 25 February 2025.

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charity on the accounts for the year ended 30 April 2024** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charity on pages 8 to 24 for the year ended 30 April 2024 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and  with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),  published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 14. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report** 

As described on page 6, you, the charity's Trustees, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. 

The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of  Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the Governing Document for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act; 

b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under s145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination.  An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity  and of the accounting systems employed by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the Trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries and does not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide

## **Deerview Equine Interventions** 

Consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. 

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion** 

Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, I have completed my examination: and can confirm that:- 

This  is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act  and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; 

and that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:- 

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by  with Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011; 

the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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; 

have not been prepared in accordance with  the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP). 

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 financial statements to be reached.

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 30 April 2024** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Policies relating to the production of the accounts.**_ 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),  in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice. 

## **Going Concern** 

The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing grant aid and voluntary donations as well as trading revenues. As a consequence, the going concern basis is dependent on the future flow of these uncertain funding streams. Accordingly, the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods to 31 December 2022, the Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is  appropriate  to adopt the going concern  basis  in preparing  the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Risks and future assumptions** 

## **Accounting for deferred income and income received in advance** 

Where terms and conditions relating to income have not been met or uncertainty exists as to whether the charity can meet any terms or conditions otherwise within its control, income is not recognised but is deferred as a liability until it is probable that the terms or conditions imposed can be met. 

As at the 30 April 2023, none of the grant income is shown as deferred. 

## **Volunteers**

However, the trustees value the significant contribution made to the activities of the charity by unpaid volunteers.

## **2 Liability to taxation** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
