We do this by using the 5 ways to wellbeing; -  Connecting with others - peer support -  Being physically active - wellbeing sessions/walks/bootcamp/yoga -  Learn new skills - training, workshops, MHFA -  Give to others - volunteering opportunities  Practising presence - being where you are now, radical acceptance ## **CHARITABLE OBJECTIVES** - To eradicate social isolation of the parent-carer community. - To enhance the overall wellbeing of the parent-carer community. - To empower them to take ownership of their wellbeing and the wellbeing of the children and young people they care for. - To campaign for the rights of parents and carers to be equitable to all other carers ## **SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN TO FURTHER THE OBJECTS** Our charity uses peer support to navigate the world of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, empowering families with resources to address intersectional disadvantages like poverty and poor health. Our objectives are to reduce isolation and improve well-being through hosted activities, networks and training. We achieve this by collaborating with health and local government to influence system changes, recent activities include co-producing a local offer website and a health passport for hospital visits. Our diverse team, including carers with disabilities, contributes to multiple local networks shaping groundbreaking projects revolutionising health & care services for families raising children with disabilities in Wirral.

ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## **PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT** In considering the objectives and activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit to ensure that the organisation is meeting its public benefit requirements. ## **ORGANISATION AND LEGAL STATUS** The charity is a company limited by guarantee and registered as a Charity. The charitable company is controlled by its governing document, memorandum of articles incorporated on 26[th] March 2019 as amended by special resolution(s) dated 12[th] July 2021 as registered at Companies House on 2[nd] December 2021. The organisation is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. The liability of each member in the event of winding up is £1. During the year, the charity changed its registered address from Bloom Building, Birkenhead CH41 5FQ to Vale House Community Centre, Wallasey CH45 1LZ. ## **TRUSTEES AND THEIR APPOINTMENT AND TRAINING** The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Lisa Ellen Allcock (Chair) Katherine Laure Cropper (Treasurer) Joshua Pelled Sian Williams Vanessa Margetts Adele Curley (resigned 27th November 2023) We recognise that an effective Board of Trustees is imperative to ensure that the charity is to successfully achieve its objectives. The Board must seek trustees who represent the interests of the community we serve and have available the knowledge and skills required to run the charity. Individual trustees must have sufficient knowledge of the role of a charity trustee and of our organisational objectives and activities to enable them to fulfil their role. We aim to maintain a Board of Trustees delivering high standards of practice, through a carefully planned recruitment and selection procedure, in line with the Equality, Fairness and Diversity Policy. 4 | P a g e ## **THE POSITIVITREE LTD. ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** The recruitment and selection procedure has been developed to include safeguards for the welfare of children. We aim to represent the community we serve, and therefore we aim to ensure trustees are recruited from as diverse backgrounds as possible. A diverse group of volunteers can broaden the range of opinions and ideas. They bring knowledge of the cultures and circumstances of the population groups they come from, so that our organisation will have a better understanding of those groups, and be better able to relate to them. Furthermore, they enrich the organisation with their perspectives and the variety of their experiences and backgrounds. A diverse group of volunteers also makes possible heightened cultural sensitivity within the organisation, and allows for the kinds of interchanges that make it possible for people with very different backgrounds to understand, respect, and cherish one another's differences as well as their similarities. We shall have at least three and not more than twelve individuals on the Board of Trustees. In addition advisers may also be appointed to the Board for the benefit of specialist expertise such as Safeguarding, but shall have no voting rights. The term of office shall be one year before trustees must retire at an AGM. Retiring trustees may offer themselves for re-election at an AGM. When a need is identified to co-opt a trustee onto the Board during the year, that Trustee must retire and be offered for election by the members at the next AGM. There is a volunteer training and induction pack in place which sets out the procedure to be followed when inducting new trustees and relevant training required. Each trustee serves a term of one year and must resign or be nominated for re-election at every general meeting. The charity may by ordinary resolution: (1) appoint a person who is willing to act to be a trustee; and - (2) determine the rotation in which any additional trustees are to retire. ## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE DURING THE YEAR** Together our staff, volunteers and trustees have worked together to develop a well respected, easy to access and impactful parent-led wellbeing service for families of children with additional needs.

ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## **GOING CONCERN** The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for the twelve months from authorising these financial statements. The trustees assess the charity to be a going concern based on review of financial performance of the current year to date, the management accounts forecast for the remainder of the financial year, and longer-term plans and forecasts for 2024 and beyond. As a result, the trustees are satisfied that these accounts can be prepared on a going concern basis. ## **RISK MANAGEMENT** The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance to manage those risks. These risks have been documented by the trustees and are reviewed on an annual basis or more frequently should circumstances change. The trustees recognise that the major risk to providing services is the uncertainty of funding through trusts and foundations/grants. However, we work hard to deliver high quality services and to maintain our good reputation with the families we support and with our funders and have developed a fundraising strategy to diversify our income streams. The Charity has also proved our willingness to adapt in response to changing needs of our community and the changing commissioning and funding environment. The Charity maintains a comprehensive range of policies and procedures for minimising financial and other risks and the trustees monitor these on a regular basis. Trustees are aware of the potential costs of redundancy if sufficient income to maintain the current levels of activity is not obtained and are continuing to work to increase the level of the Charity's reserves. Other risks both physical and relating to professional indemnity are regularly reviewed and minimised by our policies and the training given to staff and volunteers. We are covered by our insurance policy. All staff and volunteers working with families have current DBS Enhanced Disclosures. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** Incoming resources for the year totalled £209,239, (2023: £174,161) of which £186,176 related to funding for projects upon which restrictions are placed. Total expenditure in the year was £172,098 (2023: £136,801), leaving a net surplus for the year of £37,141 (2023: surplus of £37,360) and resulting of an end of year total funds balance of £79,258 (2023: £42,116). 10 | P a g e **THE POSITIVITREE LTD. ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## **RESERVES POLICY** It is the Charity’s policy to hold free reserves in its unrestricted funds to establish an appropriate level of working capital and to protect the future operations of the Charity from the effects of any unforeseen variations in its income streams as part of policy of good financial management practice. The Trustees have set a reserves policy which requires free reserves to be maintained at a level which can ensure that Positivitree’s core charitable objectives can continue to be delivered even during a period of unforeseen difficulty. The calculation of the required level of reserves is an integral part of the organisation's planning, budget and forecast cycle. It takes into account: ● The resources required to manage and adjust staffing levels across the charity ● The resources required to fulfil existing contracts, leases and other obligations and commitments. Based on these principles, the required target level of free reserves for the Charity at 31 March 2024 has been calculated as three months of running costs = £25,672 At 31 March 2024, the level of accumulated unrestricted reserves stood at £6,723 (2023: £15,716) and free reserves stood at £2600 (2023: £9,761). The trustees are taking appropriate measures during 2024 and beyond to increase reserves through seeking out additional sources of income and carefully managing costs. 11 | P a g e **THE POSITIVITREE LTD. ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITES** Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees should follow best practice and: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently - observe the methods and principle in the Charities SORP - 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 charitable company will continue as a going concern - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departure disclosed and explained in the financial statements. The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. ## **APPROVAL** This report has been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, Companies Act 2006, Accounting and Reporting by Charities; Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2015) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1[st] January 2015).
