TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2025.
Works+ is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (a SCIO) registered in Scotland with OSCR on the 7th May 2018 with the registration number SC048445.
Works+ governance lies with its board of trustees.
The objectives of Works+ are set out in its articles of incorporation submitted to OSCR.
Objectives and activities
Works+ exists to advance education and relieve poverty. Our purposes include:
-
providing opportunities for work experience
-
delivering one-to-one coaching
-
enabling access to training facilities, educational courses and skills development
-
supporting individuals to build professional, vocational and personal confidence
-
reducing poverty by helping people move towards employment, education, training or volunteering
Whilst we work with a range of age groups, our core focus is young people aged 16–24 who are unemployed, disadvantaged, or furthest from the labour market.
Our approach is person-centred, relationship-based and long-term. Each year we aim to work with around 60 young people, with a target that at least 80% will progress to a positive destination. Our 18-month aftercare model remains essential to sustaining those outcomes.
Achievements and performance
The year ended 30 April 2025 was one of meaningful progress and continued strengthening of the Works+ model.
Key Impact Measures:
Social Return on Investment
An independent economic appraisal confirmed a Benefit-to-Cost Ratio of £3.90 returned to society for every £1 invested, rated High value for money under HM Treasury criteria.
Initial Destinations (8-week Programme)
Of 74 participants:
-
35 moved into employment
-
27 returned to education
-
10 started training
-
2 were early leavers
This represents over 97% progressing to a positive destination following initial support.
Sustained Success (18-month Aftercare)
-
85% sustained a positive destination
-
44% in employment
-
41% in further education or training
All participants were unemployed at entry, highlighting the depth and durability of change achieved.

TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
Strategic Growth and Service Development
Geographic Expansion
Delivery expanded across Berwickshire and increased in Galashiels, enabling more young people to access support locally.
Dedicated Premises
Our new base in Island Street, Galashiels, provided a five-day-a-week environment for workshops, mentoring and group activity.
Accredited Qualifications
Participants gained accredited qualifications including:
-
Emergency First Aid at Work
-
SCQF Level 4 Financial Literacy (with Money Ready and the Hymans Robertson Foundation)
-
Food Hygiene
Mental Health Support
With 59% of participants reporting poor mental health at entry, early access to support was crucial. Rapid-referral partnerships with Lifelink and the Distress Brief Intervention service ensured that many received specialist support within 24 hours.
Financial review
The net assets of the charity at 30 April 2025 stood at £132,300 (30 April 2024 - £144,136).
Partnership remains central to the culture of Works+. The organisation’s approach is built on collaboration, and our impact is strengthened through the expertise, commitment and generosity of partner organisations.
Key Funders:
Esmée Fairbairn Foundation Hymans Robertson Foundation National Lottery Young Start Robertson Trust Scottish Borders Council Scottish Building Society
The charity delivered a strong financial performance in 2024/25. However, reliance on short-term and projectbased funding continues to present a strategic risk, limiting long-term planning, staff retention and service continuity for young people with complex needs.
Reserves
Unrestricted reserves increased during the year, and the Board maintained a prudent approach in line with its reserves policy.
Structure, governance and management
- 2 -
WORKS+
TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
Works+ is governed by a Board of Trustees which meets every six weeks to oversee strategic direction, financial performance, organisational risk and staff welfare.
The Board continued to review its collective skills and experience and undertook work to broaden trustee capacity in line with organisational needs. Trustee rotation and new appointments during the year supported stronger governance oversight and succession planning.
The day-to-day management of Works+ is overseen bya full-time manager.
The organisation’s success continues to be rooted in the commitment and quality of its staff. This year, two former participants joined the team in paid roles—one now leading the Doing it Differently programme in Galashiels, and another supporting IT and back-office systems. A further team member was recruited to strengthen delivery in Berwickshire.
The trustees have engaged the services of JRW Hogg and Thorburn (Chartered Accountants) as accountants to ensure that accounts are properly scrutinised in accordance with OSCR guidelines.
The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
(Deceased 12 January 2025)
(Resigned 19 August 2024)
(Resigned 16 October 2025)
(Appointed 16 October 2025) (Appointed 16 October 2025)
The trustees report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF WORKS+
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2025, which are set out on pages 5 to 19.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investments (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the 2006 Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the financial statements as required under section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and
-
(ii) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations;
-
have not been met or
-
(b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2025
1 Accounting policies
Charity information Works+ is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (a SCIO). The registered office ss
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of not less than twelve months. The ongoing support of key funders has been secured. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Volunteer services and donated goods are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities, however the value to the charity is disclosed as an amount equivalent to the open market value for an alternative item that would provide an equivalent benefit to the charity. The amounts are shown in note 8.
Grants are recognised when the charity has become entitled to the income and all performance conditions have been met and assurances given. They are allocated between restricted and unrestricted funds according to the nature and conditions of the grant.
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes.
Income from fundraising activities is recorded net of fundraising costs as the activities are out with the direct control of the charity.

1.5 Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis, including VAT which is irrecoverable, and is charged against the category of resources expended for which it is incurred.
The operating officers spend some of their time generating funds and making grant applications. This time is not separately recorded or allocated. It is included in the cost of charitable activities.
Volunteer services and donated goods are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities, however the value to the charity is disclosed an an amount equivalent to the open market value for an alternative item that would provide an equivalent benefit to the charity. The amounts are shown at note 8.
Management and administrative costs are included in charitable activity costs.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs relate to book-keeping, payroll and the preparation and independent examination of statutory financial statements. There is no apportionment of overhead costs.
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.7 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

(Continued)
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.8 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.9 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
There were no critical accounting estimates or judgements required in these financial statements.
