THE GREEN HOUSE BRISTOL

Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

The Trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. 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

Purposes and aims

The Charity's purposes, as set out in the objects contained in the company's memorandum of association, are:

To promote the health and wellbeing and support the recovery of people who have been affected by sexual violence and
abuse.

The aims of the Charity are:

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

The Green House in the year 2023-24, together with young people, families and partners, have developed a new
five-year strategy “End the Silence.” The strategy and associated operations plan helps us to direct our activities and
monitor them against our aims and objectives throughout the year. This also helps to ensure that The Green House
Board of Trustees Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 remain focused on our stated
purposes. Trustees receive reports from the Senior Management Team at monthly board meetings, and quarterly KPI
reports. This enables them to review the success of our key activities and the benefits they have brought to children,
young people, and families. In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the Trustees have
considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'Public Benefit: Running a
Charity (PB2)'.

As part of the strategy development throughout 2023-24 we have reviewed our mission, vision and values to reflect our
new service model.

Our Mission

Our mission is to offer hope and healing through creativity, connection, and activism for children, young people, and
families who have experienced sexual abuse.

Our Vision

Our vision is to end the social silence, stigma, and shame of child sexual abuse so that children, young people, and
families can build thriving relationships and communities.

Our values

Our core values are hope, connection, being genuine and taking action.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Significant activities

The Green House provides free, quality whole family specialist support for people affected by sexual abuse to ensure that they can live a life free from trauma. We work with people of all ages and backgrounds, including many from Bristol's most deprived communities. We witness daily the life-changing impact of whole family support for sexual abuse.

The specialist support of our highly skilled team gives children, young people and families the opportunity and the tools to make sense of their traumatic experiences, find helpful ways of coping, and build their future in the strength of who they are. Our support programmes are designed to grow connection and community with young survivors, their families, and the wider community.

Our team are qualified practitioners and are highly experienced in working with trauma. This enables us to work effectively with the impacts of abuse experiences and ensures that we can safely support each child in a way that is right for them. This quality is reflected in the level of engagement that we manage to achieve, reaching a diverse client group and the difference we see in wellbeing and lifestyle outcomes after receiving support.

Alongside our frontline services, we deliver national evidence-based programmes designed to develop best practice within the system of agencies supporting families and promote opportunities for young survivors to step into leadership positions.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The Green House is the only specialist support provider for children, young people (up to the age of 18) and families who have experienced sexual abuse living in Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, and Bath & Northeast Somerset. Recent research from the CSA Centre of Expertise demonstrates that 15% of girls and 5% of boys will experience sexual abuse before the age of 16. In Bristol alone this figure is estimated at 13,000 children and young people every year.

Research shows that getting help quickly is much more important than the length and type of service offered to a child. Providing choice of service to young people is also crucial to improving outcomes. Each child is different. Some require long term support, some just a few sessions, others will recover best if their parents/carers are supported to know how to manage the day-to-day impacts of abuse. In September 2022 we moved from offering a single 24 session creative arts therapy intervention to a whole family, community-based support model, offering a wide range of evidence-based services which children and families can chose from to suit their situation and need. The financial year 2023-24 has seen the team embed our new services to incredible effect: we reduced waiting times to care by half and have increased the number of children and families reached by 60% compared to the previous year.

Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

At the heart of The Green House’s approach is a recognition that healing from sexual abuse reaches beyond individuals
and must encompass families and communities. It’s a major shift from working solely in 1-1 therapeutic spaces to
embracing a whole family way of working with nine different pathways through service.

The Charity remains committed to being a creative arts service because young people and families believe in the power
of creativity to facilitate healing. Creativity also sits in The Green Houses desire to continue to learn, innovate and grow
the model so that it can support other services in the Charity sector doing this work.

To do this, The Green House this year has made significant progress in fostering key partnerships with both local and
national agencies which has supported the new strategies focus on wider systems and cultural change. The team hope
that this new way of working, once evaluated, can provide a blueprint for the voluntary child sexual abuse
sector nationally. The Charity remains committed to research, in helping The Green House to understand the frontline
work through evidence-based interventions, developing best practice nationally and as a platform for amplifying young
survivors voices.

Of central focus to The Green House is ensuring the lived experiences of children, young people and their families are
at the heart of everything we do. This year has seen a considerable expansion of activities under the VOICE Project
which is for young people and families who have accessed The Green House who want to contribute to programme
design, creative peer support communities and lead their own systems/societal level change.

Our new service includes:

1. Initial meeting - Holistic assessment with our Family Support Work Team based on a case-formulation approach.

2. Wait list offer of support

3. Therapy offer - we have reviewed our existing therapy offer and added shorter-term therapies and group work. Our therapy offer now includes:

4. Online remote therapy, with options of 12 or 24 sessions

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

5. Survivor Leadership & Peer Support – We run monthly Young People’s VOICE and Parent VOICE Groups for young people and parents/carers who have accessed our support programmes, and would like to inform model development, local and national social change around issues related to childhood sexual abuse.

Increased reach and access to care within our frontline service

Delivery of the frontline children’s service in 2023-24 saw The Green House significantly expand reach, reduce waiting
times and achieve positive outcomes for children and their families. The children’s service received 245 referrals
between April 23 – March 24. As of March 2024, waitlist times (compared to April 2022 2.6 years) for our support
programmes were:

We supported 173 CYP with therapy and delivered a total of 2,342 sessions of therapy across the year. We delivered 11
sessions of nature-based therapy to n=7 young people (11 sessions completed before end of March 2024), 17 sessions of
our 6-weekly psychoeducational Parent Group to n=13 Parents, 3 Drop in Parent-led spaces 4 parents (began in the final
quarter of 2023), 12 Drop in Young Person-led spaces n=12, 21 VOICE Group sessions to Parents and Parents/Carers
and Young people. We also delivered 35 weekly sessions of Support Circle attended by 96 young people.

Our Family Support Work team provide critical case management support to children and their families throughout
their support journey with us. There were 4,739 contacts with young people and/or their carers as well as 175 individual
psychoeducational and emotional support sessions. A key role of our Family Support Work team is to support the wider
system of agencies around children and families to be trauma-informed and provide consistent support. The Family
Support Work Team completed 1,119 liaisons with wider systems partners to improve the response to childhood sexual
abuse, working most closely with social care (261), schools (174), CYSVA/ISVA (153) and CAMHS (3138). Our
Professional Consultation programme, delivered by our Specialist Practitioner Team in multi-agency settings, provides
one-to-one support to professionals working with children and young people. We delivered 102 one-to-one Professional
Consultations, 75 of which were about pre-trial therapy to therapists and/or therapy services.

Outcomes reported by children, families and professionals

We use a variety of validated tools to evaluate the effectiveness of our programmes. Our research team have undertaken
a project to ensure that outcome measures are in place for the financial year 24-25 that reflect the whole family model
of support.

Therapy outcomes from the 12-session and 24-session model demonstrate that:

“I felt like I was talking to a really good friend, one that I could trust.” Young person supported with online therapy

“It was really good to have someone to talk to about anything and she helped me to stop having flashbacks.” Young person supported with therapy

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Parent Group outcomes

Feedback from parents who attended our 6-weekly psychoeducational group highlighted that they better understood
how the experience of sexual abuse impacts their child and themselves. Parents felt more confident in how to respond to
and support their child and had a greater sense of hope for their child’s future.

“I found everything helpful. Knowledge and giving me the understanding to support my daughter better. Confidence to advocate for my child. I feel stronger.” Parent/Carer

“ A real sense of belonging, everyone was so kind, and I found the science behind the behaviour so helpful in understanding why this was happening.” 

Parent/Carer

Support Circle outcomes

Our online anonymous support group for CYP reported the following outcomes:

Professional Consultation Case Study

A social worker contacted us after a referral was declined due to the child already being in a different service. This led
to a consultation to address the social worker’s and current therapist’s lack of confidence in supporting the child
following sexual abuse. Through professional consultation with a Green House therapist, both felt more able and
confident in communicating with the child and supporting the foster carer in helping the child deal with the impacts of
sexual abuse. The service we provided helped to alleviate some of the carers and child’s anxiety and helped to reduce
the child’s distressed behaviour

"This is such a helpful space and has helped me formulate my thoughts around this complex case. I have felt really isolated in my work with this child and this space has really helped with that." – Practitioner Feedback

VOICE Parent Group Case Study

When Malcom* joined the Parent and Carer VOICE group, he initially felt some trepidation, some worry about who
else might be in the group, and what might be talked about. He spoke one-to-one with the VOICE practitioners about
how he was feeling. They supported him through the early stages, and he found that the more he went, the more
comfortable he became in the group. He’s glad he continued, as it’s now such a positive experience for him. He helped
set up Turn Up Tuesdays, and has attended nearly all of these sessions, supporting the parents and carers who attend
with a cup of tea, slice of cake and a supportive ear. He values the sense of connection that the VOICE group has given
him, and the access to information and support he would never have known about before.

“ I think it's an incredibly valuable thing that The Green House is doing. And I suppose the thing that it's revealed to me as well is … the value of talking to people who've been through a similar experience to you. It’s just really valuable ” – Parent Feedback

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

VOICE Young People Group Case Study

For the Beyond Therapy Festival of Activism, several of our young people performed poetry, contributed artwork and
shaped panel discussions for the day. One of our members, who this year developed a Dungeons and Dragons drop-in
space for other young people, wanted to perform a comedy piece at the festival about their experience of sexual assault
and recovery from it. We worked with an established comedian who provided mentoring sessions and supported the
young person to develop their piece, practice and supported on the day. The young person performed their set to an
audience of 200+ people.

Highlight for me was if I’m allowed to say was my performance, I think it would have been a different performance if I didn’t have mentoring. I loved being on the stage, reminded me of how much I enjoy performing. I not only want to do more stand up. I would like to go on and do some more amateur dramatics.” Parent Feedback

Family Support & Whole Service Feedback

“I cannot thank you enough for the support and understanding in the sessions you dedicated to my child and myself. The sessions helped me to prioritise my areas of concern (which all seemed priority, where I felt overwhelmed at times). I feel I have weight lifted from my shoulders and feel more positive when dealing with my priorities. I feel I can focus on my child a lot more of which I could not have done without your support - Thank You” Parent/Carer

“…we were met with kindness and openness, and we were listened to straight away. The initial telephone conversation with The Green House was extremely important. It was a big relief to speak to someone who took time and listened, who was kind and who gave hope that help was available.” Parent/Carer

National Projects

Our new strategic plan is based on an ecological model which shapes our commitment to bringing young survivors,
their families, and wider networks together to create a collective healing journey. Part of that journey has been the
continued development of national projects that are designed to improve access to care for survivors of trauma within
the criminal justice process (Bluestar Project) and Upfront Survivors - a partnership with SARSAS, Viv Gordon
Company, Coventry University – which focusses on creative-arts community-based services that develop
survivor-leadership across the sector.

Bluestar Project

Building on our national Home Office Funded Project 2021-22, the Bluestar Project, in partnership with Emma
Harewood Consultancy, moved into delivery of a national training and accreditation programme funded by the NHS
Southwest and Ministry of Justice. This year also saw the development of paid for online training days for individual
practitioners alongside quarterly best practice spaces. The team worked alongside MPs and independent Commissioners
to support key pieces of legislation within the Victim & Prisoners Bill around third-party material requests. The aim of
the Bluestar Project is to ensure that all survivors of trauma who have reported to the police have access to quality
support services, regardless of criminal justice outcomes.

We ran 4 National Network Best Practice attended by over 90 practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and funders to
develop the programme and new guides for frontline services. Over the course of the year 43 Training days were
delivered, eight of which were multi agency or cross-sector. Across these sessions a total of 603 professionals were
trained.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Feedback from the training highlights the quality of the programme and will lead to improved access to care across the
country. Post training practitioners felt more confident in:

“I’ve been providing pre-trial therapy for 10 years and even back then I tried to fight against the ‘fear’ narrative, saying that it must be something survivors can access, and we must not be ‘scared’ of providing it. It is so good your training comes from that place of positivity and confidence drawn from the new guidance. It has been clear and packed with information, you have been friendly and welcoming.” Bluestar Trainee

Upfront Survivors

Upfront Survivors is a survivor-led community based creative arts programme that reaches across 11 Police and Crime
Commissioning areas in the UK. It’s about survivors leading cultural change by creating visible survivor-led
community spaces in partnership with frontline services to work towards effective, holistic, and sustainable support.
The Green House works closely with Coventry University to support the evaluation of the project, collaborating on the
process evaluation of the Leadership Training Course. The Green House supported delivery of the cultural pop-up
spaces, which reached over 400+ survivors in the year 2023-24 and is commissioned to deliver creative arts workshops
to young people led by survivors.

As part of this project The Green House delivered the Beyond Therapy Festival of Activism Against Child Sexual
Abuse in February 2023. The aim of the festival was to re-imagine societies existing response to child sexual abuse
through the lens of social justice and the creative arts, drawing on the latest research in the sector. This year the festival
responded to the theme of education and included 5 practice-based workshops, 5 panel discussions, survivor-led
artwork, and arts commissions. It was attended by 319 researchers, survivors and practitioners who had travelled from
across the UK and Europe to join us.  Feedback from the day demonstrated the festivals’ ability to create a sense of
community, connection and hope for future systems change.

“I thought the festival was brilliant and so well managed. The talks were so engaging and hearing from survivors was really impactful. I really feel what I learnt on the day will stay with me for a long time and has inspired me to be a better advocate for child sexual abuse in my work and personal life.” Attendee

Fundraising activities

Donors to the Green House can be assured that we comply with the regulatory standards for fundraising. We are
registered with the Fundraising Regulator and are committed to the Fundraising Promise and adherence to the Code of
Fundraising Practice. Our Interim Head of Fundraising is a member of the Institute of Fundraising. Our fundraising
effort mainly involves encouraging donations and gifts by individuals and corporate charity of the year nominations.
During the year, we did not use third-party suppliers for the purposes of raising funds. Our website outlines our
complaints policy for the public and clearly explains how an individual can complain. We received zero complaints
relating to fundraising in the financial year (2023: Nil). We acknowledge all complaints within five days and respond in
full within 20 days. Complaints are dealt with in-line with our Ethical Fundraising Policy. The most serious complaints
are escalated to CEO or Chair of the Board of Trustees. Our Fundraising and Vulnerable People policy is available on
request. In addition to our policy, we have an operating procedure to protect vulnerable people.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

Income in the year totalled £1,109,161 (2023: £887,387) of which £305,560 (2023: £355,650) came from grant funding
from several different bodies (see notes 2 and 4 to the financial statements).

These funds were used to provide a range of services, including therapy services, family support work services and
group services, to promote the health and wellbeing and support the recovery of people who have been affected by
sexual violence and abuse. Expenditure in the year totalled £1,004,283 (2023: £825,184) of which £984,422 (2023:
£816,171) related to charitable activities.

Of this amount spent on charitable activities, the most sizeable is on staff costs which totalled £599,017 (2023:
£452,987) with Consultancy (Adults Therapy Service) of £100,798 (2023: £115,084).

Total funds as of 31 March 2024 were £767,250 (2023: £662,372) of which £735,250 (2023: £662,372) were
unrestricted and £32,000 (2023: £nil) were restricted. The fair value of fixed assets are recognised in a designated fund,
with a value of £278,449 (2023: £290,368).

Reserves policy

The level of income retained in reserves is based on a realistic assessment of contractual obligations to staff (i.e.,
maternity, sickness and redundancy pay), running cost contingencies, winding up and dilapidation costs, risk
management and any unanticipated reductions in income. Due to the nature of The Green House's work, particularly the
need to provide consistent care to our clients, it is vital that support programmes are completed in a sensitive and timely
manner. Therefore, the running costs contingency is significant and represents an estimate of four to six months of
skeleton operating costs prioritising the continuation and safe ending of the support work being actively provided by the
organisation. Any clients on our waiting list will be contacted and signposted to other services.

The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted reserves not invested in tangible fixed assets held by
the Charity should be kept more than three months of expenditure, which equates to approximately £262,531 for the
financial year of 2023/4. On 31 March 2024 there were unrestricted general reserves of £456,801 (2023: £372,001)
which almost meets our reserves policy. The Trustees are committed to ensuring the adequacy of unrestricted reserves
on an on-going basis and are confident that the Charity will be able to continue to operate and fulfil its obligations.

Going concern

After reviewing the Charity's forecasts and projections and its reserves, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that
the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operation for the next year. The Charity therefore continues to adopt
the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Page 8

THE GREEN HOUSE BRISTOL

Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The main risk to the organisation's ability to continue as a going concern is the loss of significant funding. To mitigate
this risk, the organisation has implemented a strategy and fundraising plan which increases its work with a wide range
of funding bodies and diversifies the portfolio of funders. We continue to develop the internal structure of the
organisation to ensure that it is lean and adaptable. The Green House experienced a consistent level of income in the
financial year which allowed for the embedding of the new service model and the increase in delivery (Financial Year
2023-24). Demand for the support is at an all-time high. The organisation is budgeting to remain at the current level of
delivery to address this and therefore, requires the income to deliver this. The Green House has secured 100% of
budgeted income for 2024-25, and 85% for 2025-26.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The Green House is a charitable company limited by guarantee. The Charity was established in 1980 and became
incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in 1989. The company was established under a Memorandum of
Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of
Association, which have been reviewed in 2021 by the Board.

Organisational structure

The Board of Trustees, which cannot have less than five or more than twelve members, administers the Charity. The
Board of Trustees meets every month. In addition, the Board operates one subcommittee being the Finance, Risk and
HR Sub Committee which meets monthly. A Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is appointed by the Trustees to manage the
day to-day operations of the Charity. To facilitate effective operations, the CEO has delegated authority, within terms of
delegation approved by the Trustees, for operational matters including finance, employment, and delivery related
activities.

Induction and training of new trustees

All new Trustees receive an induction into the work of the Charity as well as an introduction into the role of a trustee
and its responsibilities. The induction process for new Trustees also includes training and development days. Trustees
are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role.

Key management remuneration

The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually, along with that of all employees, and in 2023-24 was increased in
accordance with inflation and annual earnings. Pay benchmarking is carried out as part of the recruitment of new posts
through internet searching for similar posts and discussion with partner agencies delivering sexual violence services
across Avon & Somerset.

Related parties

None of the Trustees receive remuneration or other benefit for their work with the Charity. Any connection between a
trustee or senior manager and a potential employee, supplier or service provider must be disclosed to the full Board of
Trustees in the same way as any other contractual relationship with a related party.

As part of the recruitment process all Trustees complete a Conflict-of-Interest Statement. At each Board meeting, all
Trustees must declare any changes to their conflicts of interest. The Green House is part of a consortium of sexual
violence support services and works in close partnership with Womankind, SARSAS, The Southmead Project, Kinergy
and Barnardo's BASE to deliver high quality services to survivors.

Risk management

The Trustees hold a Risk Register documenting the major risks facing the Charity along with mitigating actions. This is
reviewed on a quarterly basis as part of the rolling timetable of the Board of Trustees. The following are considered by
the Board of Trustees to be the top three risks to the organisation where there is a medium-to-high probability of them
occurring and, if this were to happen, there would be a significant impact on the organisation:

Safeguarding statement

The Green House is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and parents/carers
with care and support needs who use its programmes. The welfare of all children is paramount, and safeguarding is
everyone's business. The Green House's safeguarding policy is in line with the Children Act 1989 and 2004. Section 17
and 47 of the 1989 Act imposed a positive duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. Safeguarding is a
specific activity that is undertaken to protect specific children and adults with care and support needs who are suffering,
or are at risk of suffering, harm. All children have the right to protection regardless of gender, ethnicity, disability,
sexuality, or beliefs. All agencies have a statutory responsibility to safeguard children. Our 'Adults at Risk Safeguarding
Policy' and 'Child Safeguarding Policy' document sets out The Green House's approach to protecting children and
vulnerable adults from abuse. Policies are supported by detailed procedures which explain how this policy is to be
carried out by Team Members. Everyone that The Green House works with will be informed of our policy statements as
part of an explanation of the limits of confidentiality. A copy of this policy and procedure is made available as
appropriate and is also available on our website.

Plans for Future Periods

In the year 2024-25, we will work to consistently and effectively deliver our new frontline service model. To continue
to innovate programmes and evaluate key aspects of the model to ensure the needs of children, young people and
families are met. We will deliver our national projects (Bluestar and Upfront Survivors) to increase visibility of
childhood sexual abuse, build creative survivor-led communities and ensure access to quality pre-trial support services.
We will seek out new national partnerships and projects that enable us to understand the needs of children and young
people who face additional barriers to accessing support. We will campaign to end the silence around child sexual
abuse, continue to work with central government to develop new pieces of legislation that protect children at risk of
harm and build robust research studies with external academic partners in the field.

TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

The Trustees (who are also directors of The Green House for the purposes of company law) are responsible for
preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United
Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial
Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland".

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the
trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state
of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income
and expenditure, of the charitable company 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 2019 (FRS 102);

 - 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 operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time
the financial position of the charitable company and 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 auditor is 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 auditor is aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Haines Watts (Western) Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General
Meeting.

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Green House Bristol (the 'charitable company') for the year ended
31 March 2024 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).

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.

Page 14

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of The Green House Bristol

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:

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.

Page 15

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of The Green House Bristol

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.

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:

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the charitable 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 Charities Act 2011 and the Charities SORP.

We obtained an understanding of how the charitable company is 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 charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how
fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the audit team included:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those
leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the
more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial
statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding
irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion,
omission or misrepresentation.

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.

Other matters which we are required to address

The financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 are the first financial statements to not qualify for an audit
exemption. As a result, the comparative figures presented for the year ended 31 March 2023 are unaudited. We have
gained sufficient audit evidence in respect of the opening balance sheet position as at 1 April 2023 and consequently
our audit opinion in respect of the year ended 31 March 2024 is not modified in this regard.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of The Green House Bristol

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members 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 31 MARCH 2024

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 Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The charity is a private company, incorporated in England and Wales, limited by guarantee having no share capital and, in accordance with the Memorandum of Association, every member is liable to contribute £1 towards the costs of dissolution and liabilities incurred by the charity in the event of the company being wound up.

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern.

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 comparative figures for the year ended 31 March 2023 are unaudited.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

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

Estimates include, accrued income of £120,000 related multi-year grants which are recognised in full in accordance with the Charity SORP.

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.

Income from donations and grants is included when these are receivable, except as follows:

Income from grants, where there are performance or service deliverables required by the terms of the grant, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to payment through its performance.

Income tax recoverable on gift aid donations is recognised on an accrual basis at the same time as the original donation.

Contractual income is recognised on the accruals basis and is accounted for in the period the service takes place.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

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 costs 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

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold property - 2% on cost
Improvements to property - 2% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost
Computer equipment - 25% on cost

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

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

Designated funds form part of the unrestricted funds and have been identified by the trustees as being for a particular purpose.

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.

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

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost. 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 trade and other creditors, 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. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, the charity's contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled, or they expire.
