To enhance the development and education of children below statutory age and to relieve povety, Sickness

the Colin area. Our main focus is to vaIue and support all children aged 0-4 and their families by providing
free services, activities and programmes that focus on early education, health, family support and play
development.
Our vision is to reach out to families with children aged 0-4 years...laying foundations, creating
opportunities and working in partnership to give every child the best possible start in life.
The aims of Sure Start are to complement the work of existing local services and provide young families
with advice on where to go and who to speak to, if they have more specialised needs or problems.
The ongoing support that Sure Start provides can help to make sure that children flourish both at home and
when they go to school.
Sure Start aims to improve the ability to learn, health and social development of the children that use its
services.
The Sure Start programrne is supported by a number of key principles:
To coordinate, streamline and add value to existing services for young children and their families in local
communities
To involve parents
To avoid stigma
To ensure lasting support
To be sensitive to local families, needs
To promote the participation of all local families
Sur¢ Start work is focused on six high outcomes to ensure children are:
Being healthy

Family Services. Within each of these are&s we offer a diverse range of prograTnmes, activities and support
that families can avail of.
Project review 2024125:
The project moved into this financiaI year in a challenging staffing position having discontinued 2.5 posts
duc to planning for a cash flat budget position, which included our fathers worker post and a p/t early years
post. The project also began the financial year still covering several maternity leaves, including 2 senior
management posts, one of which returned in QI and the other in Q2, which was a big support to the
management team within the project. Following receipt of our budget and contract which included an uplift
to our funding, the Board of Directors took the decisTon to bring back some of these roles and recruitment
began, although this proved challenging in Q3 & Q4, with the project stTII operating with severaI vacant
posts, including our ELC rnanager post resulting in sev¢Tal in-year redeployments. Recruitment across the
Early Years and community and voluntary sector has been a challenge over the year.

Despite the above staffing challenges, the project managed a signifIcant amount of delivery and met or
exceeded 125 Core targets out of a total of 140, 890/0. In many cases, targets were significantly exceeded
demonstraling both the demand for these services, but also an incredible effort by our staff team, often
running back-to-back sessions in some programmes to accommodate bigger numbers. These included
postnalal programmes and drop in groups, for example our Parent and Toddler groups, (4 per week, target:
100 unique children, achieved: 156 unique children) Rhythm. Rhyme and Story Time (2 per week, target: 90
unique children, achieved: 120 unique children. For some postnatal programmes such as Baby M&%sage, we
achieved more than double the target set for the year (6 programmes per year, target: 42 unique childrcn,
achieved: 90 unique children) and Baby Yoga too had excellent uptake (6 programmes per year, target: 42
unique childr¢n, achieved 81 unique children).
Also very encouraging to see w&8 the engagement in GroBrain our programme supporting parents with
infom]ation about their baby's developing brain and how they can support with engaging activities and
ommunication (6 programmes per year, tsrget: 42 unique parents, achieved 62 unique parents) with very
positive feedback from parents who participated (see links below). Our Antenatal service went from strength
to strength with another increlse in engagement this year, with total of 119 antenatal parents recorded in
year, up from 95 the previous 23-24 year.
The project continued to invest in professional development during the year, and a number of staff training
opportunities continued during the period, with the full staff team receiving a specific training on creativity
and supporting creative environments in early years with Pete Moorhouse in September. Our SLT also
delivered a bespoke training programme to our whole team on Gestalt Languag¢ Processing {GLP) and
supporting children with speech delay using this method. 2 of our new Family Support team have been
trained in Baby Massage and Baby Yogi and we continue to work closely with the SE Trust Child
Development Interventions Coordirlator in supporting the delivery of our evidence-based parenting
programmes such as Incredible Years, including professional development opportunities for our facilitators,
The project is exploring getting some of our staff trained in the Incredible Years programme for supporting
children with Autism or additional needs. BFI accreditation process continued with the project passing our
audit in Q4 for the Stage 3 UNICEF tog¢th¢r with the other 4 projects in the South Eastem CCP region. a
m&%sive achievement and a credit to a]1 the staff involved, particularly the Level 3 Bre&stfeeding Champion
in the projecL our Health Practitioner. The project also supported a number of our Early Years team to
achieve further professional qualifications, one staff member undertaking a Level 3 and two in a Level 5 in
CCLD. and the project has started to roll out a pilot Apprenticeship Scheme to support candidates who are
CU￿entlY unqualified but interested in starting a career in early years, with the applications cU￿entlY open for
this for the incoming academic year from September 2025.
The ￿11 project staff team. management and Board of Directors met in January for a 3-Yw planning
meeting to look at some of the area and census data for the Colin Area across a number of health, education
and wellbeing outcomes. and put together a plan for the next 3-Ye￿ period targeting improving outcomes
over a number of key areas and identifying emerging need within OUT community and how we plan to
address this over the next 3 year period.

is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going Concern

accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have perfom]ed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or
conditions thaL individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to
continue as a going concern for a period of at le&st twelvc Months from when the financial statements are

Auditors ther¢on.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other inforn]ation 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 inforniation
and. in doing so, consider whether the other infonnation is materially inconsistent with the fInancial
statements or our knowledge oblained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we
identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to detemiine
whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements thems¢lves. If, based on the
work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other inforn]ation, wc are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

the Course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in Ihe Report of the Trustees.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financi21 statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatemenl whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors
that includes our opinion. Reasonable &ssurance 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 awegate,
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-
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, ouilined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. In particular, we looked at where management made subjective judgements,
for example in respect of accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future
events that are inherently uncertain. We also considered potential financial or other pressures, opportunity
and motivations for fraud. As part of this discussion, we identifted the internal controls established to
mitigate risks related to fraud or non-complianc¢ with laws and regulations and how management monitor
these processes. Appropriate procedures included the review and testing of rnanual journals and key
¢stimates and judgements made by management for risk of fraud.
Based on our understanding of the ¢ompany and industy, w¢ identified the principal risks of
non-compliance with laws and regulations &s those that have a direct impact on the detennination of material
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
We evaluated managem¢nVs incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial
statements and identified the greatest potential for fraud. We communicated the identified laws and
regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout
the audit. Audit procedures perfonned included. but were not limited to..
Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of
non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud:
Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation;
Review of board meeting minutes of those charged with governance.
In addressing the risk of fraud through management ove￿Ide of controls, testing the appropriateness of
journal entries and other adjustments.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), w¢ exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, design and perfonn audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detcting a tnaterial
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of intemal control.
Obtain an understanding of internat control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expr¢ssing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
charities internal control.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement
date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of
performanc¢ before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those Conditions are
fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the ch￿lty and it is probable
that they will be fulfilled.Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is
included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when receivable. Income received
from collections is recognised when received.
Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognis¢d in income at their fair value when
their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the
item. Fair value is detennined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the
amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A
CO￿¢spOndIng amount is recognised in expenditure.
No amount is included in th¢ financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102).
Further detail is given in the Trustees, Annual Report.
For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the
legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occ&sion legacies will be notified to the
charity however it is not possible to measure the amount exp¢ct¢d to be distributed. On these
occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities
to raise funds foi the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and servic¢s in
order to raise funds and is reCO￿lSed when entitlement has occurred.
The charity receives government grants which are detailed within the notes to these financial
statements. Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity
has entitlement after any perforniance conditions have been met, it is probable that thc incorne will be
received and the amount can b¢ measured reliably. If cntitlement is not met then these amounts are
deferred.
(D) Expenditiure recognition
All expenditure is accounfrd for on an accruals basis, inclusive of VAT which cannot be recovered
and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is
recognised where there is a legal or constructiv¢ obligation to make payments to third parties, it is
probable that the settlerncnt will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured
reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:
Costs of raising funds includes the costs associated with attracting voluntary incomes.
Expenditure on charitable activities includes those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its
activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such
activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. and
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into the cat¢gories above.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.

ACCOUDITING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are
offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a
reasonable expectation that the reciplent will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating
to perforn]ance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the
control of the charity.
(e) Support Costs allocation
Support costs are those that &8SiSt the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable
activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are in¢u￿¢d
directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management
carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings
they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis
consistent with use of the r¢50urces. Premises overheads have been allocated on an insert detsil basis
and other overheads have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Fund-raistng costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs
of disseminating inforniation in support of the charitable activities.
(O Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impaimient
losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, l¢ss
estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows..
Equipment
250/0 Straight Line
(g) Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the
contractual provision of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments ar¢ initially recognised at the amounts receivable or payable including any
related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration
expected to be paid or Telived and not discounted.
Debt instrurnents are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise bc measured
reliably. thc investment is subsequently measured at fair valuc with changes in fair value recognised
in income and eXpendi￿re. All other such investrnents are subsequently measured at cost less
impaimient.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparxng the financial statements
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless
payment for an asset is deferr¢d beyond nornial business ternis or financed at a rate of interest that is
not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the presenl value of the future payments
discounted at a market rate of interesl for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments ar¢ subsequently me&sured at fair value with any changes recognised in
the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designed hedging
relationship.
Financial assets that are me&sured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of
impaiment at the end of each reporting date. if there is objective evidence of irnpairnient an
impairnient loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in
which the initial gain is recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of Si￿lfICance, and other financial assets that are individually
significant, these are assessed individually for impairni¢nt. Other financial assets are either assessed
individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairnient are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal docs not result
in a carrying amount of the financial asset thal exceeds what the carying amount would have been
had the impairnient not previously been recognised.
(h) Impairment
Assds not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indi￿tIOn that the &ss¢t May be impaired at
each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's
cash g¢nerating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount, an impaimient loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the &sset is
carried at a r¢valued amount where the impairnient loss is a revaluation decrease.
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of
past event, it is probabl¢ that an outt]ow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the
amount can be reliably estimated.
(i) Lkases
Assets acquired under finance leases are capitalised and depreciated over the shorter of the lease tern]
and the expected useful life of the asset. Minimurn lease payments are apportioned between the
finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding lease liability using the effective intercst method.
The related obligations, net of future finance charges. are included in creditors.
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases ar¢ charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis
over the period of the lease.
(k) Tax
No pmvision is required for taxation as the company is defined as a charity for t&xation purposes.
