CHAIR, CEO AND TREASURER STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Chair’s Report

As with many third sector organisations, it has been a challenging year for Disability Wales and funding cuts have required us to undertake a change programme to ensure a more sustainable future for the organisation. We have greatly appreciated the support and understanding of members during this period, as reduction in staff capacity has meant that we have been unable to provide the usual range of activities. We embarked on our strategic review and were delighted by the number of members who responded to our survey.

It was clear from members responses that key priorities for DW include: working with Disabled People’s Organisations and individual disabled people; campaigning and influencing policies, as well as educating the public on disability issues and the Social Model of Disability ~~.~~ These priorities very much guided our thinking at strategic planning sessions with Board and Staff, and we look forward to sharing our new strategic plan with members soon.

DW has certainly sought to influence the development of Welsh Government’s draft Disabled People’s Rights Plan. DW, together with many of our members, has played an active role in the Disability Rights Taskforce and across the 10 working groups ~~.~~ We are proud to have delivered Social Model of Disability Training for Taskforce members as well as for the Cabinet, including the First Minister. It is vital that this commitment to the Social Model of Disability is translated into meaningful actions to tackle disabling barriers in everyday life and ensure disabled people’s right to independent living.

| wish to thank the Cranfield Trust for their assistance with our Strategic Review, as well as the Moondance Foundation and Wales and West Housing Association for their greatly valued financial support. This has helped us continue our work during a critical time for the organisation. | am also honoured to pay tribute to the late Mike Jones, who as well as loyally supporting DW over many years, remembered us with a generous legacy ~~.~~ May he rest in power ~~.~~

My thanks as ever go to DW's magnificent Board of Trustees and our dedicated staff team for their hard work and commitment to achieving the rights and equality of disabled people ~~.~~

CHAIR, CEO AND TREASURER STATEMENT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Chief Executive’s Report

During another challenging year for disabled people where the ongoing cost ~~-o~~ f-living crisis exacerbated long ~~-~~ term poverty and inequality, at DW we continued to pursue our aim of influencing policy and decision makers at all levels on behalf of members ~~.~~

We vehemently opposed Welsh Government’s shocking proposals to increase weekly maximum care charges from £100 to £125 per week ~~.~~ From our own Barely Surviving Report (2023), we knew that social care recipients were already struggling to pay their charges alongside essential bills for eating and heating ~~.~~ Through a membership survey and focus groups we built a strong case against the proposals ~~.~~ This included challenging the myth that only well-off disabled people are charged the maximum when in fact recipients who solely rely on benefits pay the full amount ~~.~~ Armed with this evidence, we met with Ministers, Senedd Members and took to the media ~~.~~ The campaign paid off: recognising the dire impact of raising charges, Ministers dropped their proposals ~~.~~ Moreover, they acknowledged the inconsistency in charging practice across Wales and announced their intention to undertake a national review ~~.~~ The power of the voice of lived experience was evident and DW was glad to play its role in ensuring this was heard at the highest level.

DW remained actively involved in the Disability Rights Taskforce including membership of several working groups. Having delivered Social Model training to all Taskforce participants, we were proud to present two sessions to Cabinet members, including the First Minister. Believed to be the first time any such training has been delivered in the UK, it provided an unrivalled opportunity to discuss directly with Ministers the significance of the Social Model of Disability in the history of disabled people’s campaign for rights and why tackling barriers in society must be the priority of government ~~.~~

While concerned at the delay in publishing the draft Disabled People’s Rights Plan, we welcomed news of the proposed establishment of an External Advisory Board ~~.~~ Having lobbied for such a Board, to provide vital scrutiny and accountability for the Plan once published, we were delighted that the Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Jane Hutt MS announced the proposal at our AGM ~~.~~

Despite the challenging context, we continued to actively contribute towards DW's aim to develop and support the work of Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs) ~~.~~ This included delivering a range of initiatives that develop the skills and confidence of disabled people, many of whom play an active role in DPOs ~~.~~

The successful, award winning Equal Power Equal Voice Mentoring Programme ended with an inspiring celebration of mentees achievements. Delivered in partnership with WEN Wales, EYST and Stonewall, it enabled many mentees, including from DW's cohorts, to secure Board positions, gain elected office or progress other personal goals. We were delighted that further funding from the National Lottery Community Fund and Welsh Government was secured by the partnership to run a second programme ~~.~~

Building on the success of the pilot Access to Elected Office Fund, DW was awarded funding from Welsh Government to set up the Access to Politics Grassroots Network Project ~~.~~ Launched at a lively event on the International Day of Disabled People by the Cabinet Secretary for Local Government and Housing Jayne Bryant MS, it provides networking opportunities for disabled people interested in politics including standing for elected office. Moreover, it seeks to make politics more inclusive and accessible through development of resources such as an Access to Politics Charter and a Toolkit for disabled candidates ~~.~~ With Senedd and Local Government elections on the horizon, we look forward to disabled people featuring prominently among candidates standing across Wales.

Communicating effectively with members and stakeholders remains an important aspect of our influencing work and support for DPOs. Our website contains a range of information and resources, including the popular Social Model Toolkit launched during the year ~~.~~ We were pleased to see a significant increase in traffic with an additional 100K views compared to the previous year. Daily posts across DW’s range of social media platforms featuring news, opportunities and updates, attracted more than 800 new followers, taking us to over 21K followers and achieving a total reach of 367,400.

CHAIR, CEO AND TREASURER STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The cost ~~-o~~ f-living crisis brought its own challenges for DW and following cuts in our funding, it required us to undertake a change programme to redesign and redevelop the organisation ~~.~~ To meet our aim of leading and developing an effective and sustainable organisation has required some hard decisions and difficult times ~~.~~ We embarked on a strategic review and appreciate the number of members who responded to our survey, which greatly helped inform the process ~~.~~ We look forward to sharing the outcome of the review, which has also involved staff and directors with valuable expertise from Cranfield Trust.

In seeking to secure a financially sustainable future for DW, support from funders Moondance Foundation and Wales and West Housing Association has been invaluable, and we are deeply touched by the legacy left to us by our dear friend and member Mike Jones ~~.~~

As ever, my thanks go to our dedicated Directors for their wise advice and counsel and to our fantastic staff for their unstinting hard work and enthusiasm whatever the challenges.

CHAIR, CEO AND TREASURER STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Treasurer’s Report

The ongoing challenging financial climate continues to cause difficulties for the third sector, with rising costs, cuts to funding and highly competitive bidding processes. DW is not insulated from these pressures and has had to take some stark measures to reduce spending to support the long ~~-~~ term sustainability of the organisation.

We are fortunate that during such difficult times, our historical reserves built up over many years, enable us to maintain our work in influencing policy to ensure the rights of disabled people are upheld ~~.~~ For this we are ever grateful for some very generous legacies received over the years from members and supporters of the organisation ~~.~~

This year, we were greatly touched and very thankful to receive a significant legacy from longstanding and greatly missed member Mike Jones ~~.~~ As well as being a regular at DW conferences, Mike actively campaigned for civil rights legislation during the mid ~~-n~~ ineties. We are glad to be able to build on his legacy in the ongoing fight for the rights of disabled people and develop new strategies to continue our work in face of the rising challenges.

Our strategic planning process has engaged members as well as Directors and staff ~~.~~ We greatly appreciate the support received from the Cranfield Trust which provided volunteer consultants to facilitate our strategic review sessions and offer expertise with drafting our revised plan ~~.~~

We are immensely grateful to Moondance Foundation and Wales and West Housing Association for their generous support for our work ~~.~~ This has proved invaluable in enabling us to develop a range of information resources to members and disabled people more widely during a challenging and stressful time for many.

As Treasurer | would like to thank fellow Trustees, the Chief Executive, and staff team who have worked to ensure that as a charity we operate to the highest standards to deliver our aims and objectives for our members ~~.~~

Targeted Projects

Equal Power Equal Voice Mentoring Programme

Equal Power Equal Voice (EPEV) is a partnership between Women's Equality Network (WEN) Wales, Stonewall Cymru, Disability Wales, and Ethnic Minorities & Youth Support Team (EYST) Wales ~~.~~

Launched in 2021, EPEV was a mentoring programme aiming to increase diversity of representation in public and political life in Wales, funded by the National Lottery Community Fund and Welsh Government ~~.~~

Mentees and their mentors came together in Cardiff and online when EPEV held its final event for the 2023/24 cohort to celebrate the successes of the last year. It was powerful to be there to hear just how much this programme means to those who are a part of it ~~.~~

DW is delighted to continue its partnership role in the new EPEV Programme which commenced in June 2025, and is part funded by the National Lottery and Welsh Government ~~.~~

Access to Politics Grassroots Network Project

The Access to Politics Project is funded by Welsh Government and builds on the findings from the pilot Access to Elected Office Fund. It aims to develop a non ~~-p~~ artisan grassroots network of disabled people interested in engaging more actively in politics including standing for elected office. In addition to the Network, the project will produce an Access to Politics Charter aimed at achieving greater inclusion in party politics and a toolkit for disabled candidates ~~.~~

The project was launched by the Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government Jayne Bryant MS, at a Senedd Event to celebrate the International Day of Disabled People ~~.~~

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Financial review

DW again received an award of £150,000 in relation to the Equality and Inclusion Grant 2024 ~~-2~~ 025 ~~.~~ The Board continues to invest a portion of DW's free reserves in our programme of activities as the work is vital to achieving our aims and could not be covered within the Welsh Government award ~~.~~ The Board has continued to devote time to look at the scenarios and options available to DW to secure its future and enable work to continue to advance our aims, including a comprehensive strategic review ~~.~~

Expenditure

A review of expenditure has been carried out and will be updated on an ongoing basis, savings identified and actioned already include: reduced rental payments, use of available audit exemptions to reduce audit and accountancy fees, reversion to on-line meetings rather than face ~~-t~~ o ~~-f~~ ace, unless specific funding can be secured to run events such as our annual conference, and reduced staffing costs as vacant roles have been consolidated ~~.~~

The move to online engagement activities has continued to feature firmly which has continued to save costs associated with meetings and events in a physical space ~~.~~ DW continues to be a member of The Spark community, which provides cost effective office space and the opportunity to network and collaborate with university academics and professional services staff, Spark community members and tenants from the public, private and third sectors ~~.~~

Working remotely cut costs such as printing, stationery and postage as well as travel and subsistence, however, increased costs for equipment such as laptops and office chairs. A working from home allowance is paid to staff.

Staffing

Two members of staff left during the year and one joined.

Fundraising and Income Generation

Diversification of funding sources has long been identified as key to a sustainable future for DW. The Board recognises the challenges of raising funds in a competitive environment, and the need to identify opportunities where the available funding aligns closely with our own aims. Relationships are being developed with a range of funders we have not engaged with previously and a funding strategy including new approaches to fundraising, donations, and other income is being developed. In addition, we are continuing to develop and build on our previous experience of partnership working and are pursuing several collaborative projects ~~.~~

Reserves policy

DISABILITY WALES/ANABLEDD CYMRU

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The Directors have reviewed the Charity's needs for reserves in line with the guidance issued by the Charity Commission. The amount needed to fulfil outstanding contracts or monies that can only be used for the intention stated by the funder have been set aside in a restricted reserve ~~.~~

The calculation of the required amount of reserves is an integral part of DWs planning, budgeting and forecasting cycle. It takes into account:

The charity recorded an overall deficit for the year of £34,656 (2024: deficit £181,063) split between an unrestricted deficit of £47,716 (2024: deficit £96,285) and a restricted surplus of £13,060 (2024: deficit of £84,778) ~~.~~ The restricted surplus relates to the timing difference between expenditure of funds and recognition of income ~~.~~

At the year end the reserves totalled £356,389 (2024: £391,045) which consists of unrestricted reserves of £317,904 (2024: £365,620) and restricted reserves of £38,485 (2024: £25,425) ~~.~~ The free reserves (not including designated funds) of the charity totalled £106,904 (2024: £154,620) ~~.~~

As the shortfall in Welsh Government funding continues, the Board have continued to invest surplus free reserves in continuing the vital work of DW in such key areas as participation in the Covid Inquiry and challenges to the increased burden on the cost of living, for example successfully influencing the decision not to remove the weekly cap on social care charging ~~.~~ Given the challenging, competitive funding environment in which DW is currently operating, the directors have set aside in designated reserves a target level that includes 3 ~~-~~ 6 months of core and delivery costs plus a designation for reorganisation ~~.~~ The current free reserves are separate from this designation and the Board are prepared to invest any surplus over the target level in developing a more sustainable, independent funding base for the organisation.

Designated funds:

Bursary ~~-~~ £1,000 as a bursary to aid individual members to attend events in person. Sustainable Base ~~-~~ £140,000 as a contingency to continue vital core work, including acting as a base from which to develop new funded projects, until new core funding can be secured ~~.~~ Reorganisation ~~-~~ £70,000 towards the costs of potential future reorganisation ~~.~~

Risk Management

The Directors carry out an annual review of the principal risks faced by the organisation, a risk register is maintained and procedures put in place where appropriate to mitigate the identified risks ~~.~~ Principal risks are considered at each Board meeting ~~.~~

The principal risk facing DW is the reduction in funding and the reliance on funding from a single source, the Directors are continuing to invest in efforts to find and develop new sources of income while constantly monitoring costs.

Plans for future periods

Disability Wales will continue to work with members, key partners, funding partners and Welsh Government in delivering the aims and objectives of the organisation ~~.~~ During the summer DW undertook a change programme to redesign and redevelop the organisation to ensure that we are fit for purpose in the future, and from Autumn 2024 commenced a period of strategic review and development, to take place throughout the coming year, involving staff, directors, members and other stakeholders ~~.~~

Structure, governance and management

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee and as such is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association ~~.~~ The company was incorporated on 11 March 1986 and registered as a charity on 20 March 1986 ~~.~~ Each member of the Board has agreed to guarantee the company's debts for the amount of £1 each.

The organisation is governed by a Board of Directors made up of both elected and appointed Directors ~~.~~

The term of office for elected Directors is three years (subject to any requirement regarding annual rotation of Board members) and appointed Directors up to three years.

Trustees are appointed annually at the Annual General Meeting where the board of directors can appoint a trustee. Casual vacancies are filled by the Board and ratified at the next Annual General Meeting ~~.~~ New Directors are provided with information packs about the organisation and their responsibilities and induction training is arranged.

Directors are responsible for developing the organisations policy and work; managing the organisation including its money and people; and serving the best interests of the organisation at all times.

DW aligns remuneration to local government NJC Scales and uses this to set pay, within the parameters of available funding ~~.~~ As an additional benchmark it reviews salaries offered for similar roles and levels of responsibility in other third sector organisations to help assess appropriate remuneration ~~.~~

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Disability Wales/Anabledd Cymru is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales ~~.~~ The registered office is Maindy Road, Cardiff, CF24 4HQ ~~.~~

1 ~~.~~ 1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)" ~~.~~ The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102 ~~.~~

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £ ~~.~~

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

The charity is heavily reliant on funding from Welsh Government, should this source of income cease it would have significant implications for the scale and operations of the charity. The trustees have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis on the basis that grants from Welsh Government will continue to be forthcoming in the future ~~.~~ The charity's core grant from Welsh Government is secured until 31 March 2026.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements ~~.~~

1 ~~.~~ 3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives ~~.~~

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds earmarked for particular purposes by the conditions of the grant awarding body, the donor’s wish or the nature of the grant ~~.~~ Where restricted funds received remain partly unspent, they are carried forward to the following period ~~.~~

1 ~~.~~ 4 Incoming resources

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received ~~.~~

Cash donations are recognised on receipt ~~.~~ Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount ~~.~~

Income from grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred ~~.~~

Contract income is recognised in the period to which the service is provided with any amounts received in advance being deferred.

(Continued)

Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies.

Training and development income is invoiced and included in the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which the service is provided.

Interest income is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes.

1 ~~.~~ 5 Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably ~~.~~

Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs relating to the furtherance of the charity's objectives as stated in the trustees report and their associated support costs ~~.~~

Governance costs which are included in support costs include those incurred in the governance of the charity and its assets and are primarily associated with statutory requirements.

Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the charity. The grants are recognised where the trustees have agreed to pay the grant and the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant, provided they comply with the terms of the agreement. Grants offered subject to terms and conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure ~~.~~

The charity is not VAT registered and as such expenditure is recognised at its gross value ~~.~~

Expenditure is classified by activity ~~.~~ The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity ~~.~~ Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

1 ~~.~~ 6 Tangible fixed assets

It is the charity's accounting policy to not capitalise items with an individual value of £2,000 or less.

1 ~~.~~ 7 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account ~~.~~

1 ~~.~~ 8 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously ~~.~~

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest ~~.~~ Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised ~~.~~

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the charity transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest ~~.~~ Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised ~~.~~

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non ~~-c~~ urrent liabilities ~~.~~ Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.9 Employee benefits

The costs of shor ~~t-~~ term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits ~~.~~

1.10 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due ~~.~~

Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged as an expense on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease ~~.~~

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources ~~.~~ The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates ~~.~~

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
