STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 March 2023. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
Procare Wales Limited was established in 2001 as a registered provider of care and support services within the community. The company provides registered care home and community supported living services in Conwy and Denbighshire and is a multi-award winning organisation with a reputation and track record for quality. Procare Wales' Head Office is based in Rhyl, Denbighshire and is governed by Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW). |
Our focus is on providing high quality care services, delivered by expert staff to local individuals. Our aim is to ensure that families are kept close together and as such we will only offer services which we can manage fully within close geographical proximity. |
Procare Wales currently run two residential provisions which forms part of our Intensive Support Service. These services are run by the Company's subsidiary, being Bangor Centre for Developmental Disabilities Limited. |
Procare Wales itself has over 20 years of experience in providing 24 hour community living schemes, providing services to individuals who reside in, or originate from, the North Wales Area. Specifically, the local authority areas of Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Gwynedd. Procare Wales provides community services and support across a range of enhanced community living services, meeting the needs of individuals with severe learning disabilities, Autism, acquired brain injury, mental health conditions, chronic and enduring emotional and physical conditions and associated complex needs. We specialise in supporting people who present with significant challenging behaviours to access and participate in community life. |
In continuing to provide these community based services throughout the year, the company's turnover in the year to 31 March 2022 increase by 5.2% to £1,509,330 (2022: £1,434,223). The number of individuals benefitting from the company's community living services as at 31 March 2023 was 12 (2022: 15). The increase in the turnover during the year reflects modest price increases, a contributions towards wage and other cost inflation increases. As a result, operating profit was lower on year at £29,777 (2022: £98,501). |
In the year to 31 March 2023, a dividend was received from its subsidiary of £845,000 (2022: £600,000), and the company paid a dividend of £845,000 (2022: £650,000) to its parent company, Tristone PW Holdings Limited. As a result net assets of the company were £558,527 (2022: £535,024). |
The company will continue to provide the community living services into the future and is always looking for ways to support more individuals. |

STRATEGIC REPORT |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Safeguarding the well-being of our individuals within all our services is of paramount importance and priority. Ensuring that all practices are always fully aligned with this priority responds to this principal risk. Significant investment in specialist training further ensures that all our employees are well equipped to provide the services provided and do so in a safe way for them too. |
There continues to be high demand for our services, so financial risk is generally limited to inflationary pressures on wages and other costs. We enjoy strong relationships with our partners who pay the fees for the individuals' services and within this have constructive annual discussions about price rises to meet this cost inflation. |
The company benefits from being part of the Tristone Healthcare community of businesses and as such is provided long-term financial support if required. |

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT |
The directors have chosen to disclose certain information in the strategic report, including post balance sheet events, future developments, and engagement with employees. |
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors 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 directors 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 company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company 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 company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
PROCARE WALES LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 04157540) |
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 |
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Harold Sharp Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
PROCARE WALES LIMITED |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Procare Wales Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity 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, 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: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of its profit 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 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 directors' 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 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 directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the 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 Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
PROCARE WALES LIMITED |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
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 directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors 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 directors determine 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 directors are responsible for assessing the 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 directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
PROCARE WALES LIMITED |
Auditors' 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 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: |
As part of our planning process: |
- We enquired of management the systems and controls the company has in place, the areas of the financial statements that are mostly susceptible to the risk of irregularities and fraud, and whether there was any known, suspected or alleged fraud. |
- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the company. We determined that the following were most relevant: FRS 102, Companies Act 2006, health and safety, and employment law. |
- We considered the incentives and opportunities that exist in the company, including the extent of management bias, which present a potential for irregularities and fraud to be perpetuated, and tailored our risk assessment accordingly. |
- Using our knowledge of the company, together with the discussions held with the company at the planning stage, we formed a conclusion on the risk of misstatement due to irregularities including fraud and tailored our procedures according to this risk assessment. |
The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included: |
- Identifying and testing journal entries and the overall accounting records, in particular those that were significant and unusual. |
- Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and determining whether accounting policies have been appropriately applied. |
- Reviewing and challenging the assumptions and judgements used by management in their significant accounting estimates, in particular in relation to depreciation, bad debt provision, and accrued costs. |
- Assessing the extent of compliance, or lack of, with the relevant laws and regulations in particular those that are central to the entities ability to continue in operation. |
- Testing key revenue lines, in particular cut-off, for evidence of management bias. |
- Performing a verification of key assets. |
- Obtaining third-party confirmation of material bank balances. |
- Documenting and verifying all significant related party balances and transactions. |
- Reviewing documentation such as the company board minutes, correspondence with solicitors, for discussions of irregularities including fraud. |
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities and fraud rests with the directors and management |
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 Auditors. |
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
PROCARE WALES LIMITED |

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors 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. |
The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows. |
Provisions |
A provision is recognised in the balance sheet when the entity has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, that can be reliably measured and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are recognised at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. |
Depreciation |
Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of the asset. The directors make estimates as to the length of those useful lives. |
Trade debtors recoverability |
Amounts recoverable on trade debtors are initially measured at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost, being the transaction price less any amounts settled and any impairment losses. The directors make estimates as to the recoverability of these debts and provide for them accordingly. |
Carrying value of property |
The company's properties are revalued on a regular basis by independent valuers. In between those valuations the directors make estimates with regards the valuation of properties to ensure that the carrying value is not materially different to market value. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |

Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold property | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Computer equipment | - |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. |
At each balance sheet date the company reviews the carrying amount of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. |
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately. |
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately. |
Land and buildings are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at the revalued amount less accumulated impairment losses. |
Investments in subsidiaries |
Investment in subsidiary undertakings are measured at cost less provision for impairment. |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. |
Financial instruments are recognised when the company 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, which include trade debtors, other debtors, amounts due from group undertakings, amounts owed by related parties, directors' current accounts 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
Basic financial liabilities, including bank loans and overdrafts, trade creditors, other creditors, amounts owed to related parties and accrued expenses that are classified as debt, 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 are derecognised when, and only when, the company's contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled, or they expire. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
Going concern |
At the balance sheet date of 31 March 2023, the company made a profit for the year of £868,503 (2022: £685,209), and had net assets at that date of £558,527 (2022: £535,024). The directors consider that the company has sufficient working capital to enable it to continue to trade and meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023. |
Restatement of prior year profit and loss account |
The company has restated its 2022 comparatives for cost of sales and administrative expenses, in order to realign the results with their business plan. The restatement moves costs of £914,179 from administrative expenses to cost of sales. The overall operating profit remains unchanged from the prior year reported financial statements. |
