**PRISM YOUTH PROJECT** 

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2023** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st August 2023. 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). 

## **BACKGROUND** 

Prism Youth Project is going through a period of rapid change, moving from primarily focusing on temporary, short-term support for young people needing alternative provision to a school offering longer term development and educational support.  This change is reflected in the large increase in both income and expenditure, most notably the large increase in staff costs to support a growing number of permanent students, and in repairs and renewals to provide a safe and supportive environment. 

This rapid expansion and change has brought a number of challenges to the organisation, including an acknowledgement that the governance as an unincorporated charity is not fit for purpose for an independent school undergoing this level of growth. The remaining members of the Board of Management are ensuring that the governance is updated and reflects the new status of Prism. The challenges of delivering a new education programme have also been recognised by Ofsted who graded the school as requiring improvement in March 2022, and a new action plan and staff structure is being developed in 2022/23 with external support. 

Prism offers a place for young people primarily from schools in the Bradford and Leeds district who are no longer able to deal with mainstream education. It is an invaluable and inspirational resource that should be celebrated for the work it does and the need it meets in the region. 

## **Reference and Administrative Details** 

The Reference and Administrative Details page forms part of this report. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Charitable Aims** 

The aim of Prism Youth Project is to enable young people to meet their potential through a wide range of holistic social, training and educational programmes. 

Prism Youth Project is an innovative, vibrant and creative organisation which provides young people from across West Yorkshire with: 

We have worked with 126 young people this year. Over the year we have spent £125,718 on repairs and maintenance this has included the building improvements on our club site and a number of repairs from breakages and damages across the year. Prism has also worked to upskill the existing staff team supporting a number of qualifications, whilst also recruiting new staff members to support the growing number of pupils and needs. 

Prism was also successful in receiving funding to start September 2022 to support the Breathing Spaces project offering young people 14 – 25 with mental health to access therapy on the farm site, and volunteering opportunities to support to lower the levels of unemployment within the Bradford district. This Project started officially early 2023 and this has successfully been running ever since, with more funding sourced to support the reskinning of the polytunnel and building of the sensory garden. 

Prism has also been successful in receiving funding for evening groups for young people from across the district working on areas such as employment and training, exploitation antisocial behaviour. 

Over the next 5 years Prism’s objective is to be more accessible to a wide range of young people on both sites including more evening and weekend targeted work on the rising needs of the young people within the district.

To consolidate our position as a respected provider of alternative education in West Yorkshire. 

To develop our curriculum to ensure that young people get the best education within a safe and secure holistic youth work environment, which challenges and supports young people to reach their potential. 

To seek fundraising opportunities to develop the support offered to young people as identified by the young people themselves alongside the staff team, in areas such as crime and consequence, poverty, mental health, Behaviour management, adverse childhood experiences and exploitation. 

To continue to strengthen the offer of unique opportunities to meet the needs for unique young people. 

To deliver public benefit through lower unemployment rates and by building a skilled workforce of young people across west Yorkshire. The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit in reviewing current provisions and in the planning of future services. 

To strengthen our management committee by looking to recruit suitably qualified members and completing skills audits to ensure the committee can effectively support the management of the charity as a whole. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in reviewing current provisions and in the planning of future services. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **Prism Independent School** 

Prism independent School is an alternative education programme offering accredited and non-accredited, group work with a vocational. subject, Workskills, PSHE (personal social health education functional skills: and a number intervention sessions planned to support the individual needs of the young people attending.

## **Monday night CSE/CCE project** 

The Monday night group work with young people referred in for support around exploitation, they are either being exploited or at risk of exploitation. During these sessions the young people are given the opportunity to relax and work with like-minded young people on issue-based subjects.

Currently runs every Saturday alternating Sundays as well as two evenings per week support young people across the district who are struggling with mental health. During these sessions the young people are offered the opportunity to access open space, get involved in practical activities whilst working alongside staff trained in mental health support. 

## **Financial Review** 

The Statement of Financial Activities shows a surplus for the year ended 31st August 2023 of £405,434 (2022: £13,446). The surplus consists of a surplus of unrestricted funds of £392,861 (2022: surplus of £5,769) and a surplus of £12,573 (2022: surplus of £19,215) arising on restricted funds. 

The surplus resulted from a significant increase in the income received from Bradford Special Educational Needs, combined with successful initiatives to streamline and reduce operating costs following a restructure of the management team. 

The trustees are confident that the Charity is a going concern and have shown that if funding is lower than expected, the charity can reduce its operational activities and costs accordingly. 

Prism's principal funding sources are: 

- Grants - City of Bradford Metropolitan Council 

- Fees - Bradford Education, Individual Schools. 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to three month’s expenditure. The Trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year. 

Prism Youth Project has a range of legal and moral responsibilities to funders of its services, to those who use its services, as well as contractual commitments to employees. At 31st August 2023 the free reserves of the charity were £563,271 (2022: £203,532). This equates to 35% (2022: 15%) of annual expenditure. The trustees will review the reserves policy annually. 

The Trustees have agreed to earmark £233,250 to £290,000 for future capital works over a period of time.

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF PRISM YOUITH PROJECT** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Prism Youth Project (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31st August 2023 which comprise of the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies.  The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

- In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31st August 2023, 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 Charities Act 2011. 

## **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 auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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 charity'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 other information comprises the information included in the trustees' annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

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 course of 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. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- the information given in the trustees' report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees 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 charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF PRISM YOUITH PROJECT** 

## **Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

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 an auditor’s report 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

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 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. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

Based on our understanding of the entity and industries in which it operates, we identified the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the application of charitable funds and data protection. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities Act 2011. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement and how fraud might occur, including through discussions with the directors, discussions within our audit team planning meeting, updating our record of internal controls, and ensuring these controls operated as intended. We determined the principal risks were related to posting journal entries to manipulate profits, and management bias in accounting estimates, especially accrued income. 

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 

- Performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships. 

- Identified and tested journal entries and identified any significant transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course of business. 

- Investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. 

- Challenged assumptions and judgements made by management in determining significant accounting estimates, in particular in relation to dilapidation provisions. 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed audit procedures which included, but were not limited to: 

- Agreeing financial statements disclosures to underlying supporting documentation. 

- Discussions with management of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- Reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. 

- Reviewing correspondence with HMRC and relevant regulators including the Charities Commission and OFSTED. 

At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partner's review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud. 

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance of laws and regulations is 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 relating to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment. 

- A further description of our responsibilities is available on the FRC's website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditors/audit assurance/auditor-s-responsibilities-for-the-audit-of-the-fi/description-of-the-auditor%E2%80%99s-responsibilities-for.This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, 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 Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern. 

The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **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. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.  Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. 

Individual assets costing more than £2,500 are capitalised. 

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows: 

|Long leasehold|‐no depreciation|
|---|---|
|Buildings (Farm)|‐2% straight line|
|Building improvements (centre)|‐2% straight line|
|Security fencing|‐20% straight line|
|Fixtures and fittings|‐25% straight line|



Expenditure is capitalised in the circumstances where it enhances the benefits of the asset in excess of its previously assessed standard performance, or where it replaces or restores a component of the asset that has been treated separately for depreciation purposes. Expenditure in relation to assets which does not meet these conditions is recognised as an expense in the year.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES ‐ continued** 

## **Investments** 

Investments represent short to medium term cash deposits held for the purpose of obtaining higher rate interest income. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is a registered charity and as such is potentially entitled to tax exemption under section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 in respect of income and gains arising. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post‐retirement benefits** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the  Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **Debtors and creditors receivable/ payable within one year** 

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure. 

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short‐term highly liquid investments with a maturity of less than one year and held for working capital. 

## **Staff costs** 

The costs of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense where settlement of obligations does not fall within the same period.
