## Objectives and Activities 

## **Objectives** 

The Charity's objects are restricted specifically, in each case only for the public benefit, to providing relief and assistance to people in need in any part of the United Kingdom who are the victims of, or affected by: 

- (a) death, grief or critical illness by offering them help and guidance particularly by the provision of counselling and support, respite and financial assistance;

- (c) unemployment in such ways as may be thought fit, including assistance to find employment; 

- (d) mental health issues by offering help and guidance particularly by the provision of counselling and support, and assisting in the treatment and care of persons suffering from mental illness by the provision of facilities for work and recreation; 

- (e) homelessness by offering help and guidance particularly by the provision of counselling and support, employment opportunities and financial assistance that through lack of means, would otherwise be unobtainable; 

- (f) addiction by offering help and guidance particularly by the provision of free counselling and support and rehabilitation; and 

- (g) financial hardship by offering free help and guidance particularly by the provision of counselling and support, rehabilitation, employment opportunities and financial support, that through lack of means, would otherwise be unobtainable. 

- (h) financial hardship by offering free access to programmes, classes, sporting activities and travel, that through lack of means, would otherwise be unobtainable. 






## **Activities** 

Having all been through tough times, it was apparent that seeking help with ease from readily available services was not as easy as it sounds. It takes courage, confidence, and knowhow to take those steps and that is of course if you know where to turn. 

We continually recruit volunteers that we call “Mates”. These are people who have all been through their own unique situations to navigate and seek the help they have needed to get their lives back on track. Individuals are matched with one of our volunteers who will dedicate their time to not only talk but to provide information on how to navigate the individual’s personal situation. 

We partner with local services to provide free or subsidised access to programmes, classes, counselling and any other funding and financial support, otherwise unobtainable by the individual to help with their specific circumstances. 

## **Public Benefit** 

When considering the aims of the charity the trustees have had due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on Public Benefit 

## Achievement and Performance 

## **Charitable activities** 

Having all been through tough times, it was apparent that seeking help with ease from readily available services was not as easy as it sounds. It takes courage, confidence, and knowhow to take those steps and that is of course if you know where to turn. 

So that is where we come in – 

We continually recruit volunteers that we call “Mates” these are people who have ALL been through their own unique situations, people who have managed to navigate and seek the help they have needed to get their lives back on track. 

When you reach out to us and tell us what you are going through, we will then match you up with one of our “Mates” who will make contact and spend time to meet up or talk over the phone to allow a non-judgemental conversation, but full of understanding and information of what they did to pull themselves out of their situation. 


They will be there to guide and support you and help to change your life for the better. 

We know that simply meeting a “Mate” won’t always fix the issues and finding the services to make an impact is very hard and can be overwhelming, so as a charity we also partner with local services that we recognise and have also spoken to making sure that their standards and approach match with intentions and goals at Best Mates. The difference between speaking to us and a loved one is that you won’t get the standard “family response”. 

So should you require further help, we can signpost you in the right direction but also help towards any treatment if its required. 

## Financial Review 

The Charity’s first financial period ended 31[st] July 2024 with donations and fundraising totalling £129,075. After financial and professional support to beneficiaries, event and fundraising costs and general overheads there was a surplus for the year of £30,294. 




As at the 31[st] July 2024 the charity held £30,294 as unrestricted funds. 

Best Mates Charity Reserve Policy Purpose 

The purpose of this Reserve Policy is to outline the guidelines for maintaining and managing reserves at Best Mates. The reserves are intended to provide financial stability, safeguard against unexpected expenses, and ensure the continued delivery of our mission in the event of financial challenges. 

## **Reserve Target** 

Best Mates aims to maintain a reserve level that covers between 3 to 6 months of operating expenses. The exact amount of reserves will be reviewed annually by the Board of Trustees, taking into account projected income, costs, and operational needs. The reserves will be set aside in a separate and accessible account to maintain liquidity. 

## **Types of Reserves** 

Best Mates recognizes the following categories of reserves: 

- General (Unrestricted) Reserves: Funds that are freely available for the charity's ongoing operations and are not tied to any specific project or donor restriction. 

- Restricted Reserves: Funds donated for specific purposes that cannot be usedfor general operating expenses. These reserves will only be used for the designated projects as per the donor’s wishes. 

- Designated Reserves: Funds that the Board of Trustees has decided to set aside for specific future purposes, such as planned expansion, special projects, or capital expenditures. 

## **Usage of Reserves** 

Reserves should primarily be used in the following situations: Cash Flow Management: To bridge gaps in cash flow when there is a delay in incoming donations or when funding sources are inconsistent. 

- Unforeseen Emergencies: To cover unexpected or urgent expenses, such as unexpected repairs or legal costs. 

- Operational Stability: In case of a significant drop in revenue or unexpected events (e.g., natural disasters, pandemics) that threaten the continuity of services. 


Any use of reserves must be approved by the Board of Trustees, and the decision will be recorded and justified in the charity’s financial reports. 

## **Building and Maintaining Reserves** 

Best Mates will work toward building its reserves gradually by: 

- Allocating a portion of unrestricted donations towards reserves. 

- Running targeted fundraising campaigns specifically for reserve building.• Ensuring that at least 10% of annual unrestricted donations are designated to the reserve fund, subject to financial constraints. 

- Surplus funds at the end of the fiscal year (after accounting for operational needs and ongoing projects) will be added to the reserve fund. 

The charity may also review the reserve target periodically based on changes in its activities, financial outlook, and external factors such as economic conditions. 

## **Review and Adjustments** 

The Board of Trustees will review the reserve levels at least once a year during the budget planning process. The reserve amount may be adjusted in response to: 




   - Significant changes in the charity’s income or expenditure projections. 

   - The charity’s evolving financial needs. 

- Any major risks or challenges the charity anticipates in the coming year. 

- Any significant changes to the reserve policy will be communicated to all stakeholders, including donors, partners, and funders. 

## **Transparency and Reporting** 

Best Mates is committed to transparency and accountability in all its financial practices. As part of our commitment, the reserve fund and its usage will be clearly outlined in the annual financial report. The reserves will also be disclosed in the charity’s audited accounts. We will make our financial reports available to stakeholders and donors upon request, ensuring transparency regarding the health and use of our reserves. 

## **Conclusion** 

This Reserve Policy is designed to help Best Mates maintain financial stability and support the charity’s ongoing ability to fulfill its mission. The policy ensures that Best Mates can weather financial challenges while maintaining its commitment to the communities we serve.

The<br>same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured<br>reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.<br>Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to<br>realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be<br>recognised.<br>The charity has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and<br>cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year.  These include cash on deposit<br>and cash equivalents with a maturity of loss than one year held for investment purposes<br>rather than to meet short-term cash commitments as they fall due.<br>The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.<br>Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of<br>service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the<br>recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.<br> <br>Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when<br>receivable.<br>This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any<br>gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.<br>Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories<br>on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas,<br>or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.<br>Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.<br>Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its<br>compliance with regulation and good practice.<br>Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income<br>with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the<br>SOFA.<br>The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade<br>discounts<br>These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least<br>The charity has received government grants in the reporting period<br>Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been<br>grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the<br>estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity<br>or have been met.<br>The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.<br>This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or<br>services or met the performance related conditions.<br>The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the<br>fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.  In<br>the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense<br>at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.<br>Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the<br>expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income<br>from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet.<br>On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and<br>the proceeds from  sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.<br>Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and<br>included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.<br>Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be<br>exchanged) unless impractical to do so.<br>No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.<br>A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured<br>at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date<br> <br>They are valued at cost.<br>Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the<br>gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.<br>Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive<br>obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can<br>be measured with reasonable certainty.<br>The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14.<br>Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.<br>Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is<br>treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the<br>terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.<br>There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless<br>required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.<br>Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits<br>are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from<br>charitable activities.<br>Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and<br>Legacies.<br>**ND LIABILITIES**<br>The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph<br>10.7 FRS102 SORP.  Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19,<br>FRS102 SORP.<br>These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:<br>• the charity becomes entitled to the resources;<br>• it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources;<br>• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.<br>Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition<br>criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).<br>This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be<br>measured reliably.<br>Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria<br>are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the<br>SoFA.<br>Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a<br>maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments<br>They are valued at cost.<br>They are valued at cost.<br>The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have<br>physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or<br>legal rights.  The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 15.<br>The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific,<br>technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held  and maintained<br>principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture.  The depreciation rates and<br>methods used as disclosed in note 16.<br>Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net<br>realisable value.<br>Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable<br>value based on the service potential provided by items of stock.<br>Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at<br>settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity.<br>Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be<br>received.<br>Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the<br>contract.<br>They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.|Yes*<br>No*<br>N/a*|Yes*<br>No*<br>N/a*|Yes*<br>No*<br>N/a*|

## **Independent examiner's report on the accounts** 

## **Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report** 

**Report to the trustees** Charity Name Best Mates – Wegotya Limited **On accounts for the year Charity no ended** 31 July 2024 **(if any)** 1205963 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 / 07 / 2024. 

**Responsibilities and** As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the **basis of report** accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of  the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and 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. 

**Independent** I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have **examiner's statement** come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did 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. 

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. 

**Signed: Date:** 13/03/2025 **Name:** KIEREN DONNELLY ACA FOR AND ON BEHALF OF ORLEIGH FOX **Relevant professional qualification(s) or body (if any):** Chartered Accountant (ICAEW) **Address:** Orleigh Fox, Chartered Accountants 33A Newleaze, Trowbridge, Wiltshire, BA14 7SD
