## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 26 JUNE 2024 TO 31 AUGUST 2025** 

## **STRATEGIC REPORT** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The charity's primary mission is to support students as they transition into adulthood. Our past cohorts have successfully moved into both social care day provisions and various employability pathways. We remain a constant point of contact for our alumni, maintaining long-term relationships with families to ensure they always have a strong support network and ready access to information. 

Since the transition to the new location the curriculum has seen significant enhancements, moving beyond traditional boundaries to offer a richer and more engaging educational experience. This improvement is largely attributed to the increased capacity and flexibility offered by the new provision, particularly concerning the integration of external expertise. 

Core strength of the improved curriculum is the enhanced ability to host outside professionals for direct, high-impact sessions. The significant spatial advantage of the new premises allows for whole-group sessions, a crucial logistical improvement over the previous need to divide students into smaller, less cohesive groups. This change ensures that  the educational benefit of external expertise is delivered uniformly and efficiently to every student. 

These professional visits are instrumental in improving the curriculum's relevance and breadth, notably by introducing real-world topics like community safety. For instance, a recent visit by local police officers demonstrated the power of this approach. 

The structure of the whole-group format dramatically encouraged communication and interaction among all students. This inclusive environment eliminated the fragmentation that can occur in smaller, separate sessions, ensuring every student was actively involved in the discussion and learning experience. 

The establishment of an in-house Charity Shop and eBay enterprise provides a comprehensive learning platform where students manage the entire retail cycle, from processing donations to closing sales. By engaging directly with the  public, students significantly enhance their financial literacy and customer service abilities, while sharpening their professional communication skills. Furthermore, the enterprise shop fosters essential teamwork through the production of goods, simultaneously strengthening community ties and raising social awareness among the student body. 

By having a career lead in place, the charity has successfully expanded work placement capacity for the entire student body. This growth ensures that every student can access a placement tailored to their interests and specifically  designed to bridge individual skill gaps. Whether the focus is on refining interpersonal communication or mastering broader employability traits, these targeted experiences provide students with the practical environment necessary to elevate  their career readiness 

We believe that community connection is the heartbeat of student growth. Through our active partnerships with Social Care, SENDIASS, and the Havering Local Offer, we provide students and families with a clear roadmap for the future. Programs such as Lets Get Active play a vital role in this journey, helping students build the self-assurance and  physical resilience needed to navigate change. Ultimately, these connections do more than just provide services; they foster the confidence and transition skills necessary for our students to step into the community with pride. 

## **Fundraising activities** 

A priority target for the provision is to set up a café where students will be able to learn new work related skills in a familiar environment with effective support. A charitable grant pledge was secured for £15,000 towards the cost of a new commercial kitchen. 

An aim of the charity was to secure independent premises to enable the provision to expand in scope and capacity in terms of what services and educational opportunities could be provided. This was secured in January 2024 and new internal work related opportunities have been set up. 

## **Financial review** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

- Department for Education (DfE) 

- London Borough of Havering Local Authority (LA)

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 26 JUNE 2024 TO 31 AUGUST 2025** 

## **STRATEGIC REPORT** 

## **Financial review** 

## **Reserves policy** 

The trustees have examined the requirement for free reserves which are those unrestricted funds not invested in fixed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The Trustees consider that, given the nature of the  work of the charity, it is prudent to have 3 months running costs as the targeted amount of reserves which is £121,000. 

We ended the financial year with £106,995 free reserves. 

## **Principal risks and uncertainties** 

- Lagged DfE Core Funding: Growth in student numbers between one college year and the next result in income shortfalls. 

- LA Top-Up Funding Volatility: The sudden departure of a student or a dispute with a Local Authority (LA) regarding  - top-up" rates creates an immediate income gap. 

- Changes in Central or Local Government Policy: There is a risk that changes in government policy and/or funding priorities negatively impact the funding formula resulting in income shortfalls. 

- National Funding Constraints 

- Capital Maintenance costs of an older building 

- Staffing Ratios: Due to the complex needs of students, staffing ratios can be relatively high. Any unexpected increase in staff costs (due to sickness or specialized requirements) can rapidly escalate expenditure. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

Subject to the provIsIons of the Act, the Articles and any Special Resolution, the Directors shall be responsible for the management of the Charity's business and may exercise all the powers of the Charity for that purpose. 

The number of Directors shall not be subject to any maximum but shall not be less than three. 

Any person who is willing to act as a Director, and who is permitted by law to do so, may be appointed to be a  Director by resolution of the Directors. 

Where a maximum number of Directors has been fixed, the appointment of a Director must not cause that number to be exceeded. 

## **Induction and training of new trustees** 

New Trustees/Directors must provide identification and complete a 'fit and proper person' declaration upon  appointment. Trustees/Directors must undertake safeguarding training on induction and annually thereafter. Opportunities for access to further leadership training is provided. 

## **Wider network** 

The charity operates under a service level agreement with Corbets Tey School. The school provides staffing, resources and curriculum and the costs are reimbursed monthly. The company/charity is the legal and responsible body for providing the educational services and for drawing down educational funding.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ROUTES4LIFE LIMITED** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of ROUTES4LIFE LIMITED ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 26 June 2024 to 31 August 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also 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 your charity's accounts as 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** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can  confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. 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 

4. 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.
