Trustees statement 2025
Over the past year, we have continued to see growing demand for our services, alongside the increasing complexity of the issues our clients face — a pattern that has steadily intensified since Covid. In response, our team has worked tirelessly to ensure that everyone who reaches out for support receives the help they need, when and how they need it.
Our blended approach — offering both face-to-face sessions and remote support via Zoom — has proved invaluable. It provides greater flexibility and choice, particularly for working clients, carers with young children, and those experiencing isolation across our county. This inclusive model continues to help us reach people who might otherwise find it difficult to access support.
Our demographic data shows that, once again, we are successfully reflecting the diversity of our community in both age and gender, maintaining a strong connection with younger clients while continuing to serve a wide range of individuals across all backgrounds.
The appointment of our Assistant Manager as Placement Lead has further strengthened our service. By streamlining the application process and deepening our relationships with local universities and colleges in Norfolk and Suffolk, we have enhanced our reputation as a welcoming, supportive, and ethical placement provider for trainee counselling practitioners.
We are pleased to have secured both OPCCN and RASAF funding through to 2026. However, the OPCCN funding has been reduced by 50%, and our current National Lottery grant will conclude in November 2025. We are preparing a new funding bid to ensure we can continue offering our essential services to those who rely on us.
Our data continues to highlight the consistently high demand for our work. The success of our hybrid model reflects our core belief in empowering clients and supporting autonomy in their recovery journeys.
The difference this makes to people’s lives is profound. By offering flexible, accessible, and compassionate support, we enable individuals to take charge of their recovery and rebuild confidence and self-belief. None of this would be possible without the dedication and compassion of our staff and volunteers, whose commitment continues to be the heartbeat of our organisation. Their care, professionalism, and resilience ensure that we can adapt to changing needs and continue to serve our community with empathy and integrity.

REVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE CHARITY AND RESERVES POLICY
Financially the charity remains healthy and although the projects are run on a tight budget, we still meet our objectives. The trustees have agreed a reserves policy in line with the organisations objectives and this gives the charity approximately three months running costs should funding be seriously compromised. The present level of reserves is in excess of this policy at £317,731.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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 charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to;
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements, 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 maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities ( Accounts and Reports) Regulations.
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.

ONE TO ONE PROJECT INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ONE TO ONE PROJECT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 1 to 11.
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 154 of the Charities Act. My independent examiner’s work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity, the charity’s members as a body and the charity’s trustees as a body for my independent examiner’s work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Respective Responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Charities Act') and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Page 14
ONE TO ONE PROJECT INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ONE TO ONE PROJECT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention 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 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.

Independent examination letter of representation
To: Julie Gladman Independent Examiner on behalf of Hayhow & Co
The following representations are made on the basis of enquiries of management and staff with relevant knowledge and experience such as we consider necessary in connection with your independent examination of the One To One Project financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. These enquiries have included inspection of supporting documentation where appropriate and are sufficient to satisfy ourselves that we can make each of the following representations. All representations are made to the best of our knowledge and belief.
General
- We acknowledge that the work performed by you is substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and that you do not express an audit opinion.
2 We confirm that the charitable company qualifies as small in accordance with the conditions set out in chapter 1 of part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.
-
We confirm that the One To One Project was entitled to exemption under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 the requirement to have its financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2025 audited.
-
We have fulfilled our responsibilities as trustees as set out in the terms of your engagement letter dated, under the Charities Act 2011 for preparing financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view and for making accurate representations to you.
-
All the transactions undertaken by the charity have been properly reflected and recorded in the accounting records.
-
All the accounting records have been made available to you for the purpose of your independent examination. We have provided you with unrestricted access to all appropriate persons within the charity, and with all other records and related information requested, including minutes of all management and trustee meetings and correspondence with The Charity Commission.
-
The financial statements are free of material misstatements, including omissions.
-
The effects of uncorrected misstatements are immaterial both individually and in total.
Assets and liabilities
-
The charity has satisfactory title to all assets and there are no liens or encumbrances on the charity’s assets, except for those that are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
-
All actual liabilities, contingent liabilities and guarantees given to third parties have been recorded or disclosed as appropriate.
-
We have no plans or intentions that may materially alter the carrying value and, where relevant, the fair value measurements or classification of assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements.
Accounting estimates
- The methods, data and significant assumptions used by us in making accounting estimates, and their related disclosures, are appropriate to achieve recognition, measurement and disclosure that is reasonable in the context of the applicable financial reporting framework.
Legal claims
- We have disclosed to you all claims in connection with litigation that have been, or are expected to be, received and such matters, as appropriate, have been properly accounted for and disclosed in the financial statements.
Laws and regulations
- We have disclosed to you all known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations whose effects should be considered when preparing the financial statements.
Related parties
- Related party relationships and transactions have been appropriately accounted for and disclosed in the financial statements. We have disclosed to you all relevant information concerning such relationships and transactions and are not aware of any other matters which require disclosure in order to comply with legislative and accounting standards requirements.
Subsequent events
- All events subsequent to the date of the financial statements which require adjustment or disclosure have been properly accounted for and disclosed.
Going concern
- We believe that the charity's financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources of funding or support will be more than adequate for the charity's needs. We have considered a period of twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. We believe that no further disclosures relating to the charity's ability to continue as a going concern need to be made in the financial statements.
Grants and donations
- All grants, donations and other income, the receipt of which is subject to specific terms or conditions, have been notified to you. There have been no breaches of terms or conditions in the application of such income.
Yours faithfully .............................................................................................................................. Signed on behalf of the board of trustees
