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
The principal object of The Jane Moore Trust is to offer a range of responsive services that include education, employability, social enterprise, social housing, and access to psychological support for children and young people.
Significant activities Education
For learners who are unable to engage with mainstream education, we provide sector-leading residential and education provision for neurodiverse children and young people aged 5 to 18, who require highly specialised teaching, bespoke pastoral care and a range of dedicated services, including Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and psychological interventions, Family Support, out of term activity programmes, and transitional support work.
We offer carefully planned personalised learning pathways that are rooted in the framework of Curriculum for Excellence and work in partnership with the children and young people, parents, carers and a range of other professionals to ensure they maximise their potential and fulfil their aspirations.
Our campus in Dunkeld with capacity for 36 children and young people, is set in a calm rural location, providing bespoke pathways in both specialist education and accommodation leading to positive destinations in learning, life and work. We do this through our;
-
Day placements
-
Shared placements (mainstream school, college)
-
Virtual academy
Residential Education (partnership with Moore House School Ltd)
For neurodiverse children and young people who would benefit from an enhanced package of support our Dunkeld Campus provides residential placements.
Support Services
The charity has access to a team of throughcare/aftercare workers who provide services and support young people transitioning from being 'looked after' by the local authority to independent living aged 15-26 with sustained nurturing relationships, flexible support and person-centred assistance, offering the love and vital scaffolding they require to successfully transition to adulthood.
The support services ensure young people are better able to identify ways to take control over their lives and build resilience, become comfortable with accessing support to overcome challenges, explore and develop new personal life skills, learn the skills to live independently, and have more access to support and opportunities to improve their lives. We do this by providing:

Head of Education quote:

Support Services
Participants who previously attended Moore House Group education provisions, resided within one of their residential services or fostering families are introduced to the Support Service through the Moore House Group Psychological Service and Interventions Team and Social Worker.
Relationships are developed to ensure the young person and The Jane Moore Trust Throughcare/Aftercare worker develop a consistent supportive, nurturing relationship. Our Throughcare/Aftercare Support Team has an active caseload of 60-100 young people aged 16 to 25 each year.
Our ethos is to provide young people and young adults with a connection with someone they are comfortable with to support, advise, stimulate and enhance their confidence to live successful lives. We also create safe environments and opportunities for them to share any worries or concerns they may have, and that support does not end when they reach their 25th birthday.
Young Adult (aged 27 years old) grew up in care, and at 26 returned to live with her birth family. Unfortunately, the relationship broke down and the young person made contact with Jill, our Throughcare/Aftercare worker to request help.
Due to the desperate situation to get away from the family home the young person went to stay with a previous partner known to put them at risk, eventually becoming homeless.
Jill supported the young person to declare themselves homeless and access housing, obtain vital medication through the local pharmacy, register at a local GP surgery, access mental health support through a SAMH group and become a sounding board and constant support while they coped with crisis as they arose.

THE JANE MOORE TRUST
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Jill supported the young person when it became apparent they were a victim of domestic violence and attended the Police Station with them as they gave evidence. Jill organised a replacement mobile phone as the Police required the young person's phone as evidence and worked with the Police and Housing to provide a place of safety. The young person was vulnerable, in crisis and unable to access the help they needed without Jill's support, advice and consistent supportive, nurturing relationship.
Through feedback the trust has identified the support service would be beneficial to young people from other external agencies and has developed a rolling programme of applications to trusts and foundations to support the employment of 2 additional support workers.
"I worked with Jill supporting a young person who was leaving her foster placement in a planned transition to Supported Lodgings. Following a breakdown, the transition happened on an emergency basis. Jill provided the constant in the young persons journey, having known her whilst she was living with the foster family and taking the knowledge of the young person's learning, understanding and educational needs to new settings. The young person had complex learning needs, requiring support to problem solve and make positive decisions. Supporting the individual with her personal safety, money management following situations, which often led to referrals being made for Adult Protection. The young person moved on a number of occasions, sometimes connecting with her was problematic; however, The Jane Moore Trust did not see geographical boundaries as a barrier to supporting her which made a huge difference in ensuring that a consistent level of support was offered. I would definitely recommend the services of The Jane Moore Trust as they provide an excellent throughcare/aftercare service." Pauline, Workforce Development Lead Officer (Education and Children's Services) Fife Council.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review
Going concern
The trustees are required to prepare the statutory financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the trust will continue in operate. In satisfaction of this responsibility the trustees have considered the trust's ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due.
The trust meets its day to day working capital requirements through support from related party companies.
The trust's going concern assessment considers its principal risks and is dependent on a number of factors including financial performance.
The current and future financial position of the trust, its cash flows and liquidity have been reviewed by the trustees.
Following this review, the trustees are confident that the trust has sufficient resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.
Future plans
We will continue to develop a highly skilled workforce working towards accreditation with the ADHD Foundation and National Autistic Society (NAS). In order to expand our range of services, we will be increasing our residential accommodation capacity.
We will further develop our Virtual Academy product, recruiting education and support staff to expand the service.
We will continue to work with The HOPE Consultancy to expand on fundraising activities.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of The Jane Moore Trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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).
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 those 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;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to 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 auditors are 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 auditors are aware of that information.
AUDITORS
The auditors, Bannerman Johnstone Maclay Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE JANE MOORE TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Jane Moore Trust (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 30 June 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 30 June 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, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and Regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 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.
Page 11
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE JANE MOORE TRUST
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 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate and proper 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 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.
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.
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 company and the sector in which it operates. We determined that the following laws and regulations were the most significant: the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
-
We obtained an understanding of how the company is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquires to the management.
-
We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
-
identifying and assessing the design and effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;
-
understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process;
-
challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates;
-
identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual accounting combinations; and assessing the extent of compliance with relevant laws and regulations.
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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE JANE MOORE TRUST
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, and to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Regulation 10 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members and the trustees 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.

THE JANE MOORE TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, 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 financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the going concern principle of accounting as the trustees consider this appropriate.
The reporting currency of the financial statements is Pound Sterling (£). No level of rounding has been applied in the financial statements.
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.
School fee income
School fee income is recognised over the period to which the fees relate. Amounts invoiced in advance for periods after the year end are deferred and recognised in the relevant accounting period.
Donations
Donations are recognised when the charity has evidence of entitlement, receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably.
Grants
Grants receivable are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably. Revenue grants that relate to specific activities or time periods are recognised as income as the related expenditure is incurred or the time period has elapsed. Grants received in advance of the related activity are recognised as deferred income.
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 cost 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.
Tenants improvements - 2% on cost Office equipment - 33% on cost Motor vehicles - 33% on cost
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
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 charity operates a money purchase grouped personal pension scheme for care staff.
The charity participates in the Scottish Teachers Pension Scheme. It is a multi-employer defined benefit scheme. It is not possible for the body to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. Therefore, the charity accounts for the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme, as permitted by FRS 102 section 28. As a result, employer contributions are charged to the Statement of Financial Activity as they fall due.
