CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
Whilst the financial results for the year ending 31st March 2022 are disappointing, especially compared with the excellent year Druglink enjoyed in the previous year the Charity did make progress during the year. The small deficit (£10,509) this year compared with the marked surplus (£183,467) in the previous year is largely due to two factors. Firstly the 'lockdown' financial support received in 2020 was not repeated in 2021 and secondly the supported housing element of Druglink's operations encountered some financial difficulties, resulting in a small deficit.
During the year, management have taken action to improve the financial performance of our supported housing operation that we believe will have a positive impact on this year's financial performance. In addition much needed investment in our IT provision was made during 21/22. We expect that the improved efficiency resulting from the IT upgrades, together with our extended supported housing offering should allow the Charity to return to a positive financial position in the current year.
Emerging from the pandemic, however it is apparent that significant 'substance abuse' problems exist in society and it is anticipated that public spending associated with reducing the impacts of substance abuse will increase. Druglink is therefore anticipating an increase in demand for its 'recovery' interventions (detox and rehabilitation) and is currently developing plans to increase and extend its capabilities in this area.
Overall, we expect that the next few years will bring an increase in demand for our services together with an increase in funds available to provide those services. We believe that we have a management aligned with the needs of the sector, a workforce equipped and focussed to provide help and support for people affected by such problems and with our planned developments in facilities we are well placed to enjoy success over the medium term.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
In reviewing our aims and objectives and planning our future activities Druglink has referred to the guidance in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set out in our Strategy. Through our pathway, Druglink offers benefit to the community through the prevention of, and recovery from, substance misuse.
Our objective is to change the future for people who are, or could be, affected by substance misuse. We achieve this through Addiction Treatment, Housing Solutions, Education and Training.
We Change Futures
Prevention - Our Diversion Schemes and educational activities, such as school presentations and community engagements, present risk factors associated with substance misuse. Druglink takes an active role in education to help prevent substance misuse; we believe that by making the realities of substance misuse and addiction more visible we enable people to make better decisions about their substance use. Better education results in greater awareness and understanding of addiction, which enables us to help more people in their recovery journey as well as working towards reducing drug and alcohol related issues in local communities.
Recovery - Druglink's Oxygen Recovery Service offers a person-based treatment programme to people with drug and alcohol addictions and dependencies. Our service offers individuals the opportunity to address their addictions in a supportive and therapeutic environment with programmes based on the needs of individuals. Our service works closely with the other agencies and counselling services which are offered to the clients and their partners and families. Our Oxygen Recovery service provides flexible levels of housing support depending on an individual's needs and where they are within their treatment journey.
Re-integration and Independent Living - Our housing service provides secure supported community living to those in recovery from substance misuse issues. We provide structured programmes including volunteering on projects that provide education and training opportunities, build skills, self-confidence and self-esteem and help individuals reintegrate into local communities.
Activities
2021/22 has been a period of rebuilding for Druglink following the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our education and training services were run completely remotely during 2020/21 and our rehab and detox services required complete redesign to ensure the health and safety of our staff and clients.
2021/22 has allowed us to cautiously re-connect with our clients and students and re-start the process of meeting people 'in person'. This has presented us with some challenges as we have taken this opportunity to rethink and redesign our work, to update and rebuild.
We believe that our work really does 'Change Futures' for those we connect with and the activity presented in this report shows that during 2021 we have done our best, we have supported each other and we have 'done the right thing'.

Oxygen Recovery Service and Oxygen Breathe
Oxygen Recovery is a nine-bed rehabilitation and detoxification service offering support for those suffering from alcohol and drug addiction in a therapeutic environment. Clients receive one-to-one support as well as group therapy and relapse prevention advice. Groups once again included anger management, assertiveness, yoga, art and group therapy. The average stay is twelve weeks though some clients stay up to six months. The shortest rehab stay offered is 28 days with the client being able to access aftercare with telephone support and weekly visits. We work with clients who have complex needs and offer client-centred holistic support.
The number of people who received treatment at Oxygen between April 2021 and the end of March 2022 was 82 (an increase of 5 on the previous year) with 50 detox treatments and 32 rehab treatments provided. The majority of clients were in treatment following use of Class A drugs or alcohol. The majority of our clients identified as male.
Our quality data showed an improvement last year. In clients' surveys when asked "Do you feel you received a high level of overall service at Oxygen Recovery", the number who responded "Yes Generally" or "Yes, Definitely" was 98% (a 7% increase on the previous year). Information from clients' exit questionnaires showed that when asked, "How well do you feel your needs are being met on an emotional and psychological level", 100% responded with either "Good" or "Excellent" (another 7% increase on 2020).
Oxygen Recovery offers aftercare for up to six months with clients having access to telephone or one-to-one support. If they move onto our supported living facilities, we also offer them the chance to attend the service and all of the available support groups. This ensures that people are leaving their rehabilitation with the knowledge that in their early days of recovery, when they are most likely to relapse, they can continue to access immediate help and support.
Oxygen's excellent outcomes and associated reputation has allowed us to be included in another three framework arrangements with local authorities during the year. We will now be able to support clients from three more areas in the Midlands.
During 2020/21 we introduced a new software package, 'Inform' into Oxygen. Staff use this software to measure a client's progress and it has greatly improved the record keeping processes. It also allows much better recording and understanding of our clients' and highlights simply and quickly the areas that we need to continue to work at.
"I want to thank you for all your hard work and dedication. You are all one of the main reasons I'm alive, I will be forever grateful and I bet you don't even realise it! I honestly didn't believe I would last a week there never mind graduate and stay sober! You made me feel so welcome from the moment I walked in to the second I walked out. You will always have a special place in my heart."

Oxygen Choices
Our Oxygen Choices programme offers 30 beds of supported housing for those in recovery - an increase of 7 from the previous year. We have had 70 clients in our Oxygen Choices service this year who then are given floating support and attend our day service at Trefoil House. We partner with other agencies offering specialist advice for those looking to move on into education, training and employment.

DRUGLINK
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
We help service users by offering them the 'Choices' group program that consists of relapse prevention, tenancy skills support, process groups and complimentary services. We educate people on substances and their effects in order to drive prevention and stop problems arising in the future. We also offer housing related support, conduct weekly keywork sessions that focus on support plans and risk management plans. Choices' clients also benefit from the inclusion of external stakeholders in the service and we have improved and included family members, wherever that is possible, as this has been shown to be beneficial in a client's recovery.
Oxygen Gateway and Housing First
Oxygen Gateway has eleven beds of supported accommodation for anyone with a history of offending, substance misuse or homelessness. Clients are encouraged to move on as soon as they are ready and they can continue to receive informal support after leaving Druglink. During the past year clients have commented on the importance of this opportunity to have stable accommodation from which to restart their lives.
We have further developed our partnership with other drug and alcohol services to provide a holistic approach to recovery and have worked with the Workability team to help improve the chances of residents gaining employment. At the end of the year we relocated the entire project from Hatfield to Hemel Hempstead where we can offer an improved quality of housing as well as making it easier for clients to access our day services at Trefoil House. Whilst this proved to be a catalyst for many clients to move on it has been an opportunity for us to introduce new clients into the service with improved structure and support.
Our Housing First project has continued to grow and provide support to tenants on their journey away from homelessness. During 2021/22 we expanded the Housing First service which now offers 9 places of supported housing to our client group that has included entrenched street drinkers, clients who are actively injecting and clients with problematic sex working histories.
Gateway Eve
Gateway Eve offers three bedrooms of supported accommodation for females with a history of offending related to substance misuse. The service is available to low to medium risk offenders with clients able to stay at the property for between 12 and 52 weeks. Gateway Eve continues to operate at high levels of occupancy with a waiting list.
Our specialist Recovery Worker is based on site supporting the clients to make good decisions about their health and welfare and helping them to reintegrate into the local community.
General Activity
Druglink continue to provide floating support to residents who move on to other tenancies. We have continued to work with a group over the past year giving intensive support to clients to:
-
reinstate benefits; - get GP registered;
-
reduce Self-harm;
-
reduce drug use;
-
re-establish family contact; and
-
gain 'Settled Status';
We will continue to improve our offer to clients introducing 'tenancy maintenance' skills and moving them on to appropriate secure accommodation. Our Housing First project uses the Homelessness Star to prove to partners the value and the success of the service.
Diversion Courses
During the year to 31 March 2022, Druglink have continued to provide our national Diversion education and awareness sessions in partnership with 18 Police forces across the UK. Diversion courses provide an early intervention for people who have committed an alcohol-related or drugs-related offence. These 'Out of Court Disposals' (OoCDs) - usually a Conditional Caution or a Community Resolution - provide a Diversionary intervention which encourages offenders to examine their actions and promotes more responsible behaviour to reduce the chances of future offending.
Our courses give offenders important information that can help them:

DRUGLINK
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
-
stay safe,
-
make better decisions
-
be aware of the law, and
-
understand the consequences of their actions.
Although our courses are aimed at first time offenders they are designed to be hard-hitting; they challenge and confront whilst also informing and educating. Our trainers tailor their approach to each group to ensure that participants are engaged and get the most from their session.
During the year, we have had 14,031 people referred to courses from our Police partners which represents a 65% increase on the previous year. Around 63% of referrals were for our Cannabis courses and 19% for alcohol courses with around 75% being Community Resolutions.
During September we restarted our face to face courses across the country. We received a grant from the National Lottery 'Awards for All' fund to ensure that our IT equipment was suitable for the improved courses that we had devised. We also recruited a new group of Trainers to deliver our courses in each location. We provided all of the trainers with Training Packs and an 'induction day' to ensure that they deliver our courses uniformly across all areas of the country.
In November we launched a 'whole person' pilot project with Thames Valley Police. This consisted of trialling a new approach which saw offenders referred to us having a 'triage' interview with one of our expert staff who could then signpost them most appropriately towards the agency that could help them most. A total of 632 passed through the service to the end of March 2022 with the majority being offered one of our Diversion courses along with a tailored support pathway to help them towards recovery.
We maintained our Hardship Fund which provides financial assistance to those who need to undertake the course but who cannot afford the cost. During this year we have supported an increasing number of clients to complete the course using our Hardship Fund to meet the cost. Police forces across the country are now recognising the importance of this fund and several forces are now operating a similar fund.
Communications and Marketing
Good Neighbours Initiative
One of Druglink's key aims continues to be acting as good neighbours to our local community. We are particularly proud of our work with Kings Langley Football Club who have continued to be active supporters during the past year. They have raised a considerable sum of money to support us this year and we are partnering with them again during 2022. Druglink will be delivering a tailored education programme to the club's members throughout the year with the aim of increasing knowledge and understanding of the dangers of Drugs and Alcohol and enabling them to make informed decisions about their use.
We have also continued our work with Kings Langley School, delivering awareness sessions to staff and pupils. Pupils voted that Druglink should be the recipient of money raised from their annual sponsored walk event which was particularly important to us.
In early 2022 Druglink became the charity partners in a local Hemel Hempstead business network which works to support local businesses in developing their enterprise. Whilst we are still fledgling members of the group we are already benefitting from the extended links this network gives us.
Coffee Ethic
Coffee Ethic has made a gradual return following the pandemic closure. The Civic Centre location has proved to be limiting as many members of staff are still working from home therefore reducing the footfall to the cart. Despite this we have continued to train a small number of clients on the cart and we are continuing to support the development of this activity.
Our Charity
In order to meet our charitable objectives most effectively we need to be an efficient and effective organisation. During 2021/22 we have continued to invest in making the Charity a good and efficient place to work.

DRUGLINK
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
In April we introduced a Spinal Column Point structured pay system. This is designed to see staff appointed and paid in an equitable manner that reflects their experience and qualifications. The SCP system also allows staff to see a pay progression linked to their annual appraisal and incentivises staff to meet their targets and invest in their own development.
During 2021 we finally moved our remaining legacy systems to a cloud-based operating system. We have introduced 'Sharepoint' across the charity which has improved communication and the management of documents.
Our staff team have, as always, been amazing over the past year. Our Staff team have coped with the difficulties faced in running services for clients during a period of intense uncertainty. Staff have consistently gone 'above and beyond' what is expected of them because of the personal commitment to our clients that they bring with them into work every day.
Druglink believes that we Change Futures for people. Our activity across all of our services and throughout our organisation during 2021/22 has underlined our determination to Change Futures through our charitable work.

-
Herts County Council - Supporting Herts, Druglink Housing, Workforce Recruitment & Retention, Infection Control, Next Steps project;
-
Welwyn and Hatfield Council - Next Steps project;
-
Luton Borough Council - towards the ResoLUTiONs HUB;

-
Oxygen Residential fees - £457,639 (2021: £513,823)
-
Rental Income (Supported Housing) - £550,715 (2021: £547,380)
-
Diversion Scheme - £239,153 (2021: £217,863)
-
Donations and legacies - £6,456 (2021: £1,698)
-
Coffee Ethic (Social Enterprise) - £5,183 (2021: £5,140)
Expenditure
Expenditure for the year was £1,557,844 (2021: £1,301,193). The largest expenditure item for the organisation is staff costs which accounted for 50% (2021: 46%) of total expenditure. These staff provide essential services to our clients and are experienced individuals from a variety of backgrounds enabling Druglink to offer a rounded service to its clients.
Investment policy
Druglink had no financial investments at the year end. The Trustees keep any surplus cash in deposit accounts while being mindful of the financial services compensation scheme limits. There are no current plans to invest beyond this approach.
Reserves
The Trustees have reviewed the reserves policy and decided that £250,000 of general reserves is appropriate for approximately 3 to 6 months of committed operating expenditure. Currently the charity has a low level of reserves and endeavours to continue to build on these existing reserves to this level through our activities.

DRUGLINK
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
Bounce Back Loan
The charity availed of a Bounce Back loan during the prior year to support its liquidity position following two years of negative results and to ensure that it continued to provide its various services, This loan is planned to be repaid over five years in accordance with the UK Government terms commencing during May 2021.
FUTURE PLANS
The charity intends to continue and carefully grow its existing activities subject to adequate funding being available.
Oxygen and Housing
Our focus is to continue to provide high quality services against a background of maintaining high levels of occupancy and thereby ensuring that each activity house is providing a surplus. This is a core focus to enable us to continue to recover from the deficits of the past two years to build up our reserves and ensure financial stability to continue our much needed services.
We will continue to build awareness of our services to more organisations to help ensure those higher levels of occupancy and use.
Diversion Scheme
As with previous years, the Diversion Scheme remains under constant review and development. We aim to bring additional police forces into the Diversion scheme, believing that this level of growth is manageable for the scheme. We will continue to advise forces on their approach to a two-tier Out of Court disposals system for alcohol and other drug offences and use our influence to attract more business across our suite of courses. We will also particularly increase the use of e-learning in our courses which continues to bring a new dimension to our work.
As demand for the service grows, we are identifying the need for additional IT capacity as well as additional functionality and online access beyond developments made during the past year.
Training
We will continue to offer bespoke training and deliver sessions in schools as resources allows. We will explore opportunities for external funding to increase our capabilities in this area. E-learning will continue to be available and we aim to keep the cost of this to a minimum to allow greater access whilst still covering the cost of the system used.
Finance and Operations
Druglink will continue to maintain its quality programmes such as Investors in People. It will continue to hold staff events for the organisation to continue to consider and agree clear organisational values and how these are shared. We will encourage staff involvement in these quality programmes through the creation of quality champions within individual services.
Ongoing reviews of IT contracts for services will continue to ensure the charity receives best value as well as service from its suppliers.
All Druglink marketing materials and websites will continue to be reviewed to ensure Druglink remains relevant in the field of substance misuse and recovery. We want to ensure that we are providing the right information to potential clients as well as to the general public who may want to support the work of the charity. Druglink aspires to be an accessible service removing the stigma and preconceptions associated with addiction or substance misuse. The senior management team continues to be tasked during this current financial year to keep all areas under review for cost savings and efficiencies from staff costs to suppliers.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The Charity's aims and objectives are regulated by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 28 September 1986 incorporating the Charity (Registered Number 295384) as a Company Limited by Guarantee and updated and approved by the Trustees on 17 November 2006 and approved by the Charity Commission on 24 May 2009.
Its main objectives are to:
-
advance the education of the public in the dangers arising from the habitual or occasional consumption of narcotic, stimulant and hallucinogenic drugs or similar substances including alcohol;
-
advance the education and training of persons who operate in the field of substance misuse;
-
relieve the poverty, sickness and distress of persons resulting from either their misuse of drugs or from such misuse by others;
-
promote either alone or with others, research into drug misuse and publish the result of such research; and
-
advance the promotion and preservation of public law and order through the reduction of crimes arising directly and indirectly from the misuse of drugs.
The main activities for the year continued to focus on the promotion, education and prevention of the misuse of drugs and the rehabilitation of those misusing substances. Strategies employed to achieve these aims included:
- Providing a range of services which are reflective of relevant quality standards and address the potential problems experienced by substance misuse.
-
Focusing on limiting the harm that arises from substance misuse, not only for the individual but also for families and the wider community; and
-
Working in the partnership with other agencies to secure the widest range of services that best match the needs of our clients.
Recruitment and Appointment of New Trustees
When the management committee recognise that the recruitment of a new staff member is required, a job description is completed. This is circulated where the management committee considers it necessary to attract someone with the necessary skills for the particular job. Applicants submit their details which are scrutinised by the appropriate committee members and a short list is selected for interview. Such candidates are interviewed and if appropriate an offer is made to the most suitable candidate on an equal opportunities basis.
Pay and Remuneration
Annual reviews of pay and remuneration for key members of staff are undertaken. Different factors are taken into account when considering pay and remuneration for key staff and these include:
-
Changes in role and responsibilities;
-
Length of service and experience; and
-
Current market rates of pay and remuneration.
Any changes to pay and remuneration for the key staff of the charity are approved by the Board as part of the budget setting exercise. Should there be changes during the financial year, then approvals are made at the appropriate Board meetings and recorded in the minutes.
Appointment
The Trustees are mindful of the need to have balanced group of Trustees who can provide a wide range of skills. If they consider that new trustee is required, they investigate potential individuals they consider suitable for the role and if there is agreement amongst them make an approach to that individual. If they accept, they will be appointed a new trustee.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Induction and training of new trustees
Upon appointment as a trustee, the individual is given details of the Charity and encouraged to attend courses applicable for trustees.
Risk management
The Trustees take an active role in assessing the risks associated with the operations of the charity together with financial risks associated with the running of the charity and investments made. Action is taken to minimise risks with appropriate training of staff members and internal policies and procedures.
TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
The Trustees (who are also the directors of Druglink for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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 Company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping 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.
In so far as the Trustees are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware, and the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.
AUDITORS
The auditors, Haines Watts (Berkhamsted) Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF DRUGLINK
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Druglink (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31st March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its deficit for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and Charities SORP; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
-
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31st March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

-
the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF DRUGLINK
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. The objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud and error; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud or error; and to respond appropriately to those risks. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements in the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK).
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the Company and the sector in which it operates We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: The Companies Act 2006, UK GAAP, the UK Corporate Governance Code, UK corporate tax laws, Occupational Health and Safety regulations, and the Data Protection Act.
-
We obtained an understanding of how the Company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks and made enquiries to the management of known or suspected instances of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. We corroborated our enquiries through our review of board minutes, other relevant meeting minutes and review of correspondence with regulatory bodies.
-
We assessed the susceptibility of the Company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the audit team included:
-
Identifying and assessing the controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;
-
Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process;
-
Challenging assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates and judgments.
-
Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations.
-
Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations are from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The presentation currency of these financial statements is in Pounds Sterling.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees have reviewed and considered relevant information, including the annual budget and future cash flows in making their assessment.The trustees have tested their cash flow analysis to take into account the impact on their charity of possible scenarios, alongside the measures that they can take to mitigate the impact. Based on these assessments, given the measures that could be undertaken to mitigate the current adverse conditions, and the current resources available, the trustees have concluded that they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and accounts.
Income
Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance indicators attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.

Grant income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless the grant relates to a future year, in which case it is deferred. Income from charitable activities is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless it relates to a specific future year or event, in which case it is deferred.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities.
Indirect costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to activities, are allocated proportionate to direct costs allocated to each project area.
