Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. 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 | January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The charity's mission statement is as follows:
" Cuan Mhuire is a way of life. It is focused on serving Christ in the person suffering from addiction and its effects. We are wholly inclusive and embrace those who feel marginalised and unloved. The Cuan Mhuire Community seeks to help all to discover their giftedness and their infinite value. Cuan Mhuire provides a lived experience of home, family, and belonging. We are always attentive to providing the highest standards of excellence for those for whom we provide care and support."
The company's objects are to promote the relief of sickness and in particular to relieve persons without regard to age, sex, race, religion or creed who are suffering from dependence on alcohol or any other drug or from any illness, infirmity, disability or disease attributable to resulting from or in any way connected with such dependence.
The strategies employed to assist the charity to meet these objectives included the following:
-
Providing support and residential programmes related to the problems of dependence.
-
Providing aftercare for ex residents.
~ An outreach programme is provided to schools and colleges and other interested and concerned parties.
-
Focusing upon limiting the harm which comes with dependence.
-
Working towards applying national standards to service and the implementation of the national occupational standards. - Working in partnership with other agencies to secure the widest range of services is available that best matches the needs of its client's population.
Public benefit
Cuan Mhuire offers a place of rehabilitation and support to those with addiction issues. The charity operates an "open door" approach in which admission to the residential programmes can be accessed through community addiction services, hospitals and individuals themselves.
On admission Cuan Mhuire provides a safe and structured environment in which a residential rehabilitation programme is determined either through a twelve week alcohol and gambling programme or a twenty week drugs programme. An integrated care programme is established throughout the individual's involvement with Cuan Mhuire from the point of entry, to completion of the programme and to their reintegration into the community.
Cuan Mhuire has a residential capacity of ninety-two beds at their location on the Dublin Road, Newry. Within the year 425 individuals availed of the charity's rehabilitation prgrammes of which 94% of these individuals sought help from alcohol and drug related issues. From the support and guidance provided by Cuan Mhuire 70% of the total admissions completed their individual programmes. On review of the age profile of residents Cuan Mhuire noted a marked increase of 15% from those within the 25 to 44 year old age group.
The charity provides care and support to individuals at each stage of their involvement in the rehabilitation programme and this extends to the provision of aftercare care services. Cuan Mhuire considers aftercare to play a vital part in the post-residents road to recovery and to this extent continue to with the provision of aftercare support and guidance at their Dublin Road centre and outreach centres in Belfast and Omagh. The existence of the aftercare support programme extends to those who, for one reason or another, did not stay with their programme to completion. This provides support to those in need at a time when it is most needed and at their most vulnerable.
Cuan Mhuire seeks to continue their role with the community to bring support to those with addiction issues and to ensure that all those with addiction issues know there is someone there for them.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
STRATEGIC REPORT
Principal funding sources
The principal funding sources for the charity are “Health & Social Care Board (HSCB)" and "Supporting People”. Included within incoming resources is a total of £174,440 received from the Health & Social Care Board with £440,278 from Supporting People. Other funding comes from the Northern Ireland Housing Executive and through voluntary contributions from residents.
Funding was, also, received from the Magill Trust of £12,480 together with £26,701 from the George Moore Trust to aid the charity's ongoing objectives of support and guidance to those with addiction issues.
Cuan Mhuire also relied upon funding received throughout the financial year from donations and fund raising activities.
Investment policy and objectives
Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year most of the charity's funds are to be spent in the short term so there are few funds for long term investment.
Reserves policy
The Directors and the Local Leadership Group has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between 3 and 6 months expenditure. Budgeted expenditure for 2024/25 is approximately £1,420,435 and therefore the target is between £355,110 and £710,220 of general unrestricted funds. The reserves are required to meet not only the working capital requirements of the charity but also in conjunction with the development project as described in the below paragraph.
The actual reserves at 31 March 2025 amount to £799,399 which exceeds the average target figure of £532,665 for unrestricted funds. In calculating reserves the net book value of fixed assets held (£7,846,816) have been excluded. This surpassed the policy target of 3 to 6 months.
The Directors are aware of the events occurring within the financial year and will continue to keep under constant review. It remains the strategy of the charity to continue to build reserves and apply resources to the charity's objectives and mission.
DEVELOPMENT
The construction of additional long term residential accommodation was completed in this financial year and formally opened on 28 June 2024. The newly opened accommodation at the charity's location on the Dublin Road will provide twelve two bedroom apartments. This accommodation will provide urgently needed support for those who are homeless or for those who need additional time as part of the continuum of support that sustains recovery and minimises relapse to their addiction. :
The ongoing upkeep and development of the Dublin Road continued within the financial year with the overhaul of the sewage plant at a cost of £201,744 and in going forward with the proposed upgrade of the emergency lighting and provision of a generator at a projected cost of of £81,250.
This is referred to in note 17 of the Financial Statements.
To ensure the continuity of the quality of the rehabilitation programmes provided Cuan Mhuire undertakes the services of CHKS, a leading health and social care assurance and accreditation company, to annually assess the charity's performance. Accreditation was awarded by not only CHKS but also by ISO on their programme delivery to service users.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees and Members of Cuan Mhuire (NI) Limited (Registered number: NI034969)
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Cuan Mhuire (NI) Limited (the 'charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2025 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).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 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 Companies Act 2006.
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.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees and Members of Cuan Mhuire (NI) Limited (Registered number: N1034969)
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:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
~ we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities, 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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees and Members of Cuan Mhuire (NI) Limited (Registered number: NI034969)
: ,
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. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with directors and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the sector the company operates within;
-
- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company including the Companies Act 2006, charity and taxation
-
legislation, data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental, health and safety legislation;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of
-
management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
~ considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-
- tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; - assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in the notes were indicative of potential bias;
-
and investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and
-
reviewing correspondence with HM Revenue & Customs, relevant regulators including the Health and Safety Executive, and the company's legal advisors.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

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.
