HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST - 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The trustees present their 21[st] annual report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. In compliance with charity law, the Directors are referred to as trustees in this report.

Structure, governance and trustees

Holywood Family Trust (HFT), which is accepted as a charity by HM Revenue & Customs, was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in Northern Ireland on 28 April 2004, registration number NI50431, with the objective of undertaking charitable activities for the benefit of the inhabitants of Northern Ireland.

In the event of the Charity being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 each.

The first trustees were appointed by the members. Additional and replacement trustees are appointed by a simple majority resolution of the board or members. Trustees do not have a term of office and are not subject to retirement by rotation or re-election.

The trustees at 31 March 2025, who served for the entire year unless otherwise stated, are listed on page 3.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the net income or expenditure of the Charity for the year. In preparing these financial statements the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

We continue to be thankful to our resilient, dedicated staff members and volunteers who have diligently, and consistently worked to ensure we continued to provide our services. We are also thankful to our funders, partners and supporters who have enabled us to have another successful and productive year.

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST – 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

Risk management

Area specific risk assessments have been undertaken that included, the fire risks faced in the premises, Child Protection and Adults at Risk of Harm procedures.

HFT Managers report quarterly to the Board of trustees, regarding issues of Adult and Child Safeguarding, Accidents and Incidents, Health and Safety checks and any legal requirements. A Risk Register is updated annually. Data Protection policies and procedures are reviewed annually and are in line with GDPR legislation that was introduced in 2018.

Contracts of employment with disciplinary and grievance procedures are in place for staff members. Trustee Indemnity Insurance was in place for the current financial year.

Review of year

HFT continued to develop programmes in line with its charitable purposes and public benefit statement as outlined to the Charities Commission NI.

Public Benefit

This is demonstrated both by client feedback and a range of monitoring and evaluation reports provided to the grant funding bodies such as the Education Authority and the South Eastern Health & Social Care Trust.

5

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST - 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

The charitable purpose and benefits continue to shape HFT’s strategic objectives and operational priorities of how we achieve our goals, which are summarised as:

  1. Provision of high-quality childcare for families and youth activities for young people (including at risk young people).

  2. Provision of activities and services which assist in the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing of individuals.

  3. Provision of educational learning activities to help socially disadvantaged people make healthier choices and to train Staff and Volunteers.

  4. Facilitation of activities and events that promote social inclusion of the entire community and create reconciliation and community development opportunities.

  5. Participation in networks and working in partnerships to achieve these aims.

1. Provision of high-quality childcare for families and youth activities for young people (including those at risk).

1.1 HFT’s Childcare Project

Holywood After School Club (HASC) has continued its service, ensuring the delivery of a reliable and quality childcare provision.

We offered 2,354 childcare places, through 183 sessions, over 27 weeks in the reporting year. This catered for 67 children from 50 families and we continued to support children with special needs whilst bringing together children and families from 3 Primary Schools. We provided holiday childcare places during school closures.

During the reporting period we continued to be part funded by the Education Authority’s Bright Start Programme, which aims to support families in need and increase childcare places.

Redburn & Loughview Parent and Toddler Group . HFT has continued to manage this project within our Childcare project. In April 2023 we took over the Group that had run for 18 years in the heart of the community in Redburn Community Centre. We cater for pre-school children and their parents and carers. The numbers attending have grown to 57 members. The group runs twice a week and offered 52 sessions over 26 weeks in the reporting period.

1.2 HFT’s Youth project, Holywood Youth Centre (HYC) continued to maintain our provision of local

Youth work services, through securing Education Authority (EA) Area Funding. This report spans 7 months of the second year of the funding scheme started in 2023. During this reporting period HYC delivered 4 weekly evening generic/group work sessions for young people aged 8-18 years old and afternoon provision across 2 days. This allowed HYC to provide young people from our catchment area, with safe, structured and supervised youth activities that allowed for healthy growth and development, regardless of race, class, or creed. We achieved this through:

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST – 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

2. Provision of activities and services which assist in the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical well-being of individuals.

We have maintained our adult counselling service organisation accreditation with the British Association of Counsellors and Physiotherapists (BACP). The accreditation level is for services that operate to the high standards outlined for counselling service providers and was the fifth service in Northern Ireland to hold this accreditation.

HFTCC continues to be a vital resource for community and primary carers alike. Our Public Health Agency (PHA) funding was renewed in April 2025, along with additional Service Pressure funding. This has enabled us to provide services to improve the emotional health and well-being of many people in North Down, Ards and Greater Belfast areas. We have continued to support service users through a hybrid provision of face to face, telephone and online Counselling sessions.

Some of HFTCC’s achievements this reporting period included:

Feedback from clients and service users has continued to be very positive, they have expressed their gratitude to all involved in the work, and indicated that the service has been invaluable to them.

2.2 HFT’s Caring and Social Action Project

The project has supported individuals and families in Holywood, North Down and Greater Belfast, by providing food and essential supplies, to 73 families.

This has included providing 44 Christmas Hampers to families in need, in December 2024.

The project has been supported by Lidl, Storehouse Food Bank Bangor, Eurospar, Christian Fellowship Church (CFC) and Hygiene Bank NI.

Financial Review

This 7 month accounting period report facilitates a change in our accounting year end period to 31[st] March 2025. During the reporting period the total income was £340,742 and expenditure £293,130, resulting in a net surplus of £47,612. It is noted that £32,159 of PHA funding received near the year end has been recognised in these financial statements, but the associated expenditure will not be recognised until the subsequent accounting period. This is in compliance with relevant accounting standards but is noted here to set the surplus for this period in context. At the year end the balance of restricted funds held was £31,492 and unrestricted funds held was £349,468. Unrestricted designated funds are held in order to ensure adequate cash flow during months where income is reduced, due to the seasonal nature of the Charity's activities.

Unrestricted reserves

The Charity aims to maintain unrestricted funds and reserves that equates to between 25% and 50% of annual running cost overheads and administration. This provides sufficient funds to cover any unforeseen costs that may arise as well as allowing for the payment of any liabilities that would crystallise if the Charity ceases to operate.

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST - 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Holywood Family Trust

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Holywood Family Trust (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities (including income and expenditure account), statement of financial position, statement of cash flows 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:

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 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 other information comprises the information included in the trustees' annual report[2] , 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, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, 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

12

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST – 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

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 trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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.

Auditor 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 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.

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

13

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST - 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

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

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 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 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.

HOLYWOOD FAMILY TRUST – 2025 ANNUAL REPORT

NOTES ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 MARCH 2025

1. Accounting policies

The charity is a private company limited by guarantee, registered in Northern Ireland and a registered charity in Northern Ireland. The address of the registered office is 108 High Street, Holywood, BT18 9HW.

The Charity's principal accounting policies are stated below.

The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the financial statements.

Basis of preparation of accounts

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the charitable objectives of the Charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes. Restricted income funds are funds subject to specific restrictions imposed by donors or by the purpose of the appeal. The receipt and use of restricted funds are set out in the financial statements.

Incoming resources

All income (including grants) is accounted for as soon as the Charity has entitlement to the income, there is certainty of receipt and the amount is quantifiable.

The value of donated services cannot be quantified and is not included in the financial statements. Many individuals routinely give of their time and talents that cannot be recorded in these financial statements.

Resources used

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and includes any VAT that cannot be fully recovered.

Governance costs include the direct clearly identifiable costs of governance arrangements that relate to the general running of the Charity. These activities provide the governance infrastructure that allows the Charity to operate and to generate the information required for public accountability.

Indirect governance costs, such as staff costs and office supplies, have not been separately identified and accounted for since the cost and time of doing so is not considered sufficiently beneficial to a reader of these financial statements.

Fixed assets

Assets with a cost in excess of £2,000 intended to be of ongoing use to the Charity in carrying out its activities are capitalised as fixed assets.

Depreciation is charged on tangible fixed assets at 25% of cost per annum, so as to write them off over their expected useful lives.
