The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the association's governing document, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and "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
Seal is a charity working to support disadvantaged young people in West Fife.
Our charitable objects are:
-
The advancement of education through the provision of tailored, person-centred learning experiences.
-
The advancement of health, especially mental health and emotional well-being.
-
The advancement of citizenship social engagement and inclusion.
-
The organisation of recreational activities, with the object of improving the conditions of life for young people participating in programmes run by the organisation.
-
The relief of those in need by reason of ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage.
Seal Dunfermline aims to provide support and design activities that make a constructive difference to the lives of the children and young people we work with through increasing confidence, self-esteem and emotional wellbeing. By achieving this it also has a positive impact on families and schools.
Overview
Seal Dunfermline is an independent charity providing services in the West of Fife to children and young people between the ages of 8-21. Our referrals are mainly received from statutory partners notably health, social work and education. We also receive and process direct referrals from parents and carers. During the year the staffing team comprised of complement of six part time staff, four volunteers and a governing board comprising of nine trustees.
Seal Dunfermline is well-established and known amongst local community organisations and statutory partners. Our networks allow us to engage with other agencies for whom we provide additional and complementary support as part of a ‘whole family wellbeing’ approach to those experiencing challenges and difficulties in their lives.
We work according to the principles of co-production. Accordingly, our services are developed in partnership with those whom we support. During the lifetime of the charity the profile of those referred to Seal has changed over time. As a result, our service has adapted accordingly. This underlines the importance and need to ensure that our services are responsive to changing demand and are strategically aligned to national and local policies. Post-Covid there have been an increase in the number of referrals of children and young experiencing challenges around socialisation and coping skills in group environments. There has been a continuing trend of referrals for young people experiencing additional challenges related to neurodivergent conditions including Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as well as poor mental health and wellbeing and learning disability. Specific issues experienced b many of those refereed include social isolation, low self-esteem, difficulties developing and sustaining peer relationship and lack of confidence. These can significantly impact on emotional and behavioural difficulties at home, school and in the community. Our philosophy therefore aligns with the core principles of GIRFEC (Getting it Right for Every Child) and the associated SHANARRI indicators (Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respected, Responsible, Included).

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Trustees' works in 2024-25
Treasurer’s Report
SEAL Dunfermline has enjoyed a financially strong year, supported by generous funding from a wider range of grant-giving organisations including Fife Council, The Postcode Lottery, The National Lottery and the Community Mntal Health and Wellbeing Fund administered by Fife Voluntary Action. We are grateful for this breadth of support, which not only sustains our services but also strengthens valuable relationships with partners across our community.
This healthy financial position has also enabled us to take an important step forward in planning for the future. We have begun to establish structured reserves, including a designated contingency reserve and a buildings maintenance fund. These reserves are not simply money held back, but they are a framework that gives the organisation stability, resilience, and clarity in how resources are managed.
We are also proud to be a Living Wage employer, ensuring our staff are paid fairly and recognised for the vital work they do, something we believe is especially important in the current economic climate.
Looking ahead, the Board of Trustees will continue to review and develop these reserves through 2025/26, ensuring we balance prudent financial planning with our commitment to investing in the people and projects at the heart of SEAL Dunfermline’s work. We also enter the new year with ambitious funding targets, continuing to seek support from a diverse range of sources to strengthen and grow our impact.
Funding
Fife Council continues to be the main funder of the charity. In March 2024 the charity was informed that the Council had agreed to ongoing funding as part of a renewed service level agreement. Other main funding sources during the year was the final instalment of a three-year grant from the National Lottery Community Fund. The charity was also successful in applying for a one-off grant from the Postcode Lottery. The charity also successfully applied for Year 3 monies from the Scottish Government Community Mental Health Fund which allowed the charity to build on the success of the ‘Step Forward’ 16-plus transition to adulthood project.
During the year Seal partnered with Abbey Social a new social enterprise who undertook a number of fundraising activities on the charity’s behalf including a wine and music afternoon at Fire Station Creative and a fun activity at a Christmas Fayre held at Carnegie’s birthplace museum. Seal was nominated charity by the local branch of Primark as their Christmas charity. Thanks to the generosity of customers and staff Seal received a cheque for £1,290. In addition, all group members were presented with gifts of clothing.
As a small organisation we appreciate that the funding landscape for small organisations such as ours can be challenging. Funding and our reserves will continue to be kept under review. New grant applications are planned in 2025/26 to source income when the current National Lottery Community Fund grant comes to an end.
Seal continues to generate some income from room hire much of which has been reinvested in building refurbishments. Throughout the year rooms were booked by social work colleagues to undertake work with children and families.
Board of Trustees
During the year the composition of the Board has been stable. Additional trustees were appointed increasing the size of the Board from to nine. The trustees have met regularly over the year focussing on a governance tasks and strategic and policy development. During the year the Board reviewed and updated the charity’s strategic risk register and where feasible have sought to implement mitigating actions.
Policy Development and Review
Seal has a rolling programme of policy reviews. As part of our commitment and obligation to protecting children and young people, our Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy and associated guidelines were again reviewed in February 2024. Throughout the year the Board also undertook a review of other policies as part of a planned schedule. This included further revisions to the Child Protection and Safeguarding policy.
In preparation for changes to the PVG Scheme that will come into effect in 2025 the charity developed new policies. Existing policies and guidelines will also be amended where appropriate.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Financial review
The charity held funds at 31st March 2025 amounting to £100,779 (2024 - £60,510). The balance on the restricted funds at 31 March 2025 was £63,738 (2024 - £31,575). The remaining balance of £37,041 was unrestricted funds (2024 - £28,935).
It is the policy of the association that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three- and six-month’s expenditure. This is to ensure that should they project be unable to continue, sufficient funds are available to meet liabilities (including any redundancy costs) and ensure that work is run down on an orderly basis. Seal has now set aside monies in a Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) Bank interest-bearing account for this purpose and trustees will review the level of reserves on an ongoing basis. It is the opinion of trustees considers that current reserves are sufficient to cover costs and liabilities in the event of a significant drop in funding that might mean the charity is not in a position to continue.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the association is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Structure, governance and management
The charity is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation constituted on 31st October 2016.
The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Staffing
The staffing team has remained stable over the year. Two staff were on maternity leave and following competitive interview temporary cover posts were offered to two people from our pool of trustees. The charity is fortunate to employ skilled an experienced staff team. Three of our four part-time group leaders are qualified and registered teachers and have access to relevant professional training in their primary occupations which has helped to offset training costs and ensure that the staff we employ are competent. The other part-time group leader has a degree in learning disabilities and experience of working in other children and family settings which enhances the skill mix within the staff team.
The service continues to operate on the basis of a minimum of two adults being present at each group session in order to ensure a safe working environment. Throughout the year paid staff were supplemented with four volunteers.
In 2024 Seal became a Real Living Wage Employer and provided our main funder Fife Council with a Fair Pay statement setting out our commitment to ensuring that we meet our associated obligations. Our salaries remain competitive with similar posts in the sector and through careful budgeting the project was able to pay staff an inflation linked hourly wage increase that retained differentials linked to the current Real Living Wage.
Future Plans
Securing ongoing funding is a priority. The Board are aware that this will be critical in 2025/26 as the charity will no longer be in receipt of National Lottery Community Fund support. Based on responses to a parent’s survey undertaken in 2024 and anecdotal feedback there is undoubted potential for the charity to grow and expand beyond its core group work role. Accordingly, two grant applications are in preparation to employ a service manager and extend the current group work service from bi-weekly to weekly for all four groups. Any future development, however, will be subject to the availability of funding which in turn is likely to be contingent on continued grant support from Fife Council our main funder and referrer.
