Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023


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 2023. 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).

"Together we see a community full of connection, confidence, ready for change"

Introduction

Over the 12 months ended 31st March 2023, Clare McCormack, our Chief Executive and our gifted team of staff and volunteers, have grown, consolidated and developed our work within the greater Wishaw area. The continued increases in our expenditure and income reflected local needs and recognition of our track record of making a difference in response to challenges now faced by many of different ages. The Board has also been concerned to recompense fairly our staff team in light of the significant cost of living increases.

The Board recognises that the capacity, skills and confidence of our staff and volunteers has grown. We are indebted to the commitment of Clare and her Development Workers, Adele Bryson and Craig Whyteside. David Taylor, our Youth Development Worker moved on at the end of December 2022 to a senior position in Wales but we are grateful for all he did since joining in March 2020. Emma Ferla has successfully helped cover and progress much of his work with youth. Our main focus over the long term is on young people, young adults and children, and on positive mental health and wellbeing; and seeking the funding and people in place to sustain and develop this. Thanks to the generosity of trusts, individuals and other partners, our finances are healthy and our capacity increased.

In challenging times, the Board of Trustees has benefitted from the experience and wisdom of Dom Nolan and John Brown who joined the Board in April 2022 and in recent months welcomed Dawn Kidd, who has over 15 years' experience of senior management and finance roles, and Paul Irwin, who works with a Community Charity. I intend to step down on 4th December as Chair after 5 years in that role and am delighted that the Board has chosen John Ross Brown as my replacement.

We continue to seek fresh gifted people with a big heart to join the Board or to be part of a working group. I am grateful to my fellow trustees for all that they bring and share - but most of all to Clare, the staff team and volunteers for their amazing skills, resilience, imagination, gifts and hard work.

Rev Iain C Murdoch
Chair of Trustees

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Reflections on the year past

This year has been an exceptional year for MADE4U. We have established ourselves firmly in the area of school work, both in primary and secondary schools, with lunch clubs, active play, family play and dynamic youth sessions. This has led to much-increased engagement with children and young people across the local area.

We have also been able to increase our wellbeing provision thanks to being awarded funding for a full-time Wellbeing Development Worker, which has allowed us to offer community events, trips, meals and more as well as bolster our all-round provision of direct support, including Christmas provision, vouchers and financial assistance direct to those who need it.

It is also without doubt that this year has been a year of progressions and pathways, with a number of individuals starting apprentices with us and some finishing their year of apprenticeship and staying on with us. It is with great joy that we consistently ensure that we operate with the focus of "People being our greatest asset".

As always, as we have focused on our core values as a motivation for all we do, we increased the definition and depth of the range of work we undertake. A core underpinning of the way we work has also been to network locally and nationally, to build people up, to signpost, and to listen intently to the needs of the local community.


"People are our greatest asset"

Core Update

Pathways
Over the 2022-23 period, MADE4U has been privileged to host a total of 9 apprenticeships. Some of these started in the previous year, such as Ronnie Jamieson's year-long apprenticeship, whilst some provided upskilling and learning for a short 6-month period.

These roles have been over youth, and children, assisting in duties in the centre and in admin. Those undertaking the apprenticeships have gained skills in Food Hygiene, First Aid, Outdoor Play, Fire Skills, Youth Work, Working with Challenging Behaviour, COSHH, Excel and more. We are grateful for funding from the following programmes: Community Job Scotland (1), Kickstart (4), Young Person's Guarantee (3) and Long Term Unemployed (1).

These roles have given the individuals a range of skills which have allowed most of them to move on to further employment. In addition, we have been able to retain 3 of these roles on a more permanent basis. At the time of writing, one team member is entering their third year of employment and developing leadership skills.

With a full year of our Skills and Involvement worker, we have also been able to focus on involving volunteers across the organisation. Including allowing young volunteers a more prominent role, recruiting adult volunteers and developing a range of one-off and regular volunteering opportunities.

We have been able to support 3 students through their placements, including Occupational Health and Counselling and have benefitted greatly from their efforts.

The extra capacity of volunteers and students enhances the work we are able to deliver in the community, impacting more lives than ever.

Kids Work Update

Our children's work has impacted a significant amount of children and families over the past year of 2022-2023. The children's department has grown very much with new and existing groups. We have introduced a new Play Outdoors Project, which has been successful. It has challenged us, as a team and organisation to think about the benefits of play and the great outdoors, as well as encouraging children and families to think positively about their greenspaces and why play is so important to a child's development.

We have continued to bring much-needed work in 7 schools such as active play, dynamic youth awards and play championship, as well as regular groups within the centre. Over the past year we have also gained new partnerships with local schools, social work agencies and organisations to continue the work of the School Backpack Project and Christmas Toy Drive.

Play Outdoors Project

Our POP! Sessions have included many different areas of outdoor play across Wishaw. Our Family POP! was held in local schools, where children had the opportunity to play, and increase their physical activity, mental health and wellbeing. Children were able to build on their physical activity through active play games, team-building games and walk through the forest.

Children built relationships with the staff and made new friends, encouraging good social skills and positive mental health. We had a number of ASN children who needed additional support, and having these sessions really aided their development, supported growth and relieved stress.
Funded by Inspiring Scotland - Thrive Outdoors

Summer Trips

In July 2022, 13 children in P5-P7 took part in a 2 hr Kayaking session. All children had an amazing time getting involved in games which tested their balance and communication. The children, staff, and instructors each held the kayaks next to them, while individuals took a turn standing up and dancing to challenge their confidence. Each child participated, increasing their confidence before kayaking solo. This also gave children the opportunity to experience and explore something that some of them had not done before.

Towards the end of the session, all were given the opportunity to jump into the water. Many of the children were initially scared to jump, however, the two MADE4U staff encouraged the children. This resulted in one child, CP, holding a staff member's hand to jump in initially and another child, CS, building enough confidence to run and jump in himself.

Children were able to build skills, work as a team and build new friendships, resulting in an increase in their physical wellbeing. This reduced isolation and enabled children to take part in something that they wouldn't usually do, and overcome their fears.




"II just thought about how silly I would feel after it [..if I didn't jump..] and jumped in. I wanted to do it
because everyone else could and because it would be fun"


"I learned that play is super duper FUN!"

"It is a great way for kids to make new friends outside of the school environment!"

"Getting to stay outside longer is great!"


Club 365

This was our fourth year delivering Club365 on behalf of North Lanarkshire Council. Club365 is a holiday hunger programme that tackles poverty throughout North Lanarkshire, providing a free healthy lunch for children in P1-P7 every day through the holidays. The club runs from 11:30-1:30pm, which includes fun, educational activities for children to get involved in, giving the children the opportunity to socialise with their friends and develop new skills each day.

Children have had the opportunity to build their confidence and self-esteem through a variety of activities. We introduced new ways of play, including water play, messy play/sensory play and also active play. The activities that were delivered gave children the opportunity to express their voices.

We support parents and children by providing a safe environment for their children to play and focus on those who are struggling, experiencing disadvantage and poverty. Supporting single parents who struggle with their children due to their behaviour, learning difficulties, and additional support needs like autism or ADHD.

Step-up and FLASH

Step-Up is our transitions group for P6-7 which runs on a Monday night. The group have access to our pool table, games consoles, movies and games. It's a junior drop-in which allows those who are working towards moving up to high school to gain confidence skills and build friendships.


MADE4U IN ML2 (REGISTERED NUMBER: SC295239)

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

FLASH is our weekly afterschool group for P1-5, running on Wednesday afternoons. The group is a blend of STEM, games, crafts, physical activities and more.

Youth Work Update

Youth Drop In

Youth drop-in is held every Friday evening for young people S1+ and is a safe space for young people to meet new friends, play games, get creative and learn new skills. Our drop-in has grown significantly, with up to 35 young people attending. Our capable team have grown the provision and learned much in the process. Young people have come to rely on the staff relationships and support that are available to them at this, and from this open space, much of the other youth work follows.

High School Lunch Group

We host lunches in 3 local high schools; working in partnership with Coltness High School, St Aidans and Clyde Valley High School. This group offers young people a chance to connect with friends, get involved in small team-building games and also offer 1-1 support to young people who would like to chat about anything that is concerning them.

Young Volunteers

Our young volunteer group runs each Thursday evening for young people S1+. Young people have the opportunity to develop new skills in volunteering, where they can get trained in first aid, food hygiene and risk assessment, which has equipped them when volunteering in other groups or events. The young people are always willing to learn and grow.

Young Enterprise Project

Under the guidance of Emma, MADE4U's Skills & Involvement Co-ordinator, and the youth work team, the young entrepreneurs turned their hands to develop their products, logos, branding and working on a marketing campaign during the summer of 2022. The resourceful crew showcased their products and marketing plan to a panel of Dragons, including Lisa Cullen from Business Enterprise and MADE4U's Clare McCormack. Presenting at the Houldsworth Centre, the teams were grilled on their plans, customer service proposals and how they would develop their current range.

The five-week programme was dubbed the "Young Enterprise Programme". The first weeks involved the young entrepreneurs dividing into teams, selecting their business categories and naming their business, alongside learning about developing logos, taglines and branding. They undertook market research in their chosen field and turned their hand to product development. KT, involved in the project said of this stage, "I enjoyed using the sewing machine and learning how to use the rivets".

The first Paws-itively exciting enterprise was "Dug"; aiming to be an innovative, low-cost and eco-friendly product for dogs and their owners. The team turned their hand to developing pet collars out of bike tyres and stuffed fabric dog chews from old clothes like jeans. This aimed to tackle the problem that many dog products are expensive. The team developed the logo in line with this ethos, showcasing a tyre and smooth jean pattern.

The second enterprising team developed a range of upcycled products for sale, with the items being saved from the landfill. The team went ahead full bottle and saved some colourful caps from the tip, turning those into a Totally Unique clock fit for anyone's home. The tables were turned for their second product; an old sand and water pit table previously used for a nursery. This was transformed into a stylish upholstered storage table which would be the envy of any home. The second project took more time and labour, and the skills invested took some time to learn, including using staple guns, furniture paint and sanding the wood down.

The final enterprise, Just Heavenly Soaps (J.H.S) came up with a range of beauty products including soaps, initially aimed at the skin-conscious teen. The team aimed for a clean-sweep of the soap and cleansing market as their product research targetted three of the biggest contenders in the world of skincare, and identified that many of the products on the market contain harmful chemicals or are out of budget for the average teen-consumer. They created several items for testing, including a range of scented soaps (passion fruit, mango, and lavender amongst others), and skin-scrub. The products were beautifully presented in unique and individual pots and containers, as well as biodegradable cardboard boxing, showing their passion for zero-waste alongside their core skincare mission. The team presented a thorough, well-researched marketing and sales plan, with big ambitions for the future, showcasing the young people's creativity and ambition.


I was able to use my knowledge. I enjoyed furthering my teamwork and developing my
communication skills. I enjoyed the 5 weeks and can't wait for it to continue."

Wellbeing Update

Befriending

Befriending has become a core part of our wellbeing provisions. Throughout this year we have consulted with the individuals who benefit from this provision, to ensure that it was still needed after covid. Thinking people were getting out and about, we were surprised to hear the amount of people who wanted the provision to continue, calling it a "lifeline", and "much-needed support"; with one individual saying that she "wouldn't know what to do without it" and that she didn't "talk to anyone else from week-to-week".

Throughout this year, we have been able to invest a little of our wellbeing funding into a dedicated worker to complete the befriending calls and provide the 1-1 support that individuals require. The calls also allow us to check in on those who benefit from our meal provisions. We are often the first point of call for those in crisis and find this a true privilege.

Family Grub

Family Grub runs on a weekly basis on Tuesday evenings. During the evening, we provide a home-cooked meal that supports children and families that may be struggling during the week to make a meal due to financial worries, or those who need company and support. The evening also includes a safe space for families to connect and play games together.

Summer Programme

Throughout this year, with an increase in wellbeing staffing and volunteers, we were also able to run a full summer programme, including weekly Welcome Wednesday sessions (chippy tea, afternoon tea, games day, etc). We also ran trips to Peebles and to Ayr, taking a total of 100 people away for day-trips. We hosted mental health reflection days and continued with our meal service, home-visits and befriending calls. We often get asked if summer is quiet for us; which as you can see, it absolutely isn't!

Giving Direct

Over the last couple of years, we have gradually increased the amount of support we provide direct to the community. This includes foodbank, electricity and food voucher support, digital devices (Connecting Scotland), Winter Fund, Christmas Toy Drive, Hampers and Meals.

Christmas Toys

This year the project impacted 403 children, young people and 194 families. This was aimed at the most vulnerable within the local area, so we did this on a referral basis. This being our third year of this project, partnerships with schools and agencies have vastly increased. We have valued relationships with social workers, family workers, teachers, etc. We supported the Restorative Justice team with a bulk referral of 39 children over 24 families.

Back-to-School Backpacks

The School Backpack Project impacted 237 children and young people, running from June - August 2022. The project supported many children and families within the local area of Wishaw and surrounding areas. MADE4U IN ML2 teamed up with Pathway Church to deliver the project. These included a variety of stationery items that will help support children when going back to school.

Christmas Meals and Hampers

During this year, we provided just under 250 3-course meals for adults and families across the community, just in time for Christmas Day. This has become a staple of MADE4U's provision in the community, aiming to give direct support to those who need it most. This year, people could pick between roast beef or a turkey roast dinner, with all the trimmings, and with chocolate fudge cake and custard to top it off. Local community members nominated neighbours, and those who couldn't travel to family benefitted from an easy prep meal.

Alongside this, we once again provided Christmas Hampers to those adults who may not otherwise have a gift. We provided over 100 gifts to local men and women, containing something nice to eat, drink, smell and something warm.

Coming Together
Gala Day

Our biggest event in this calendar year was our Gala Day in June 2022. We were fortunate to receive funding from North Lanarkshire Council to support this event. Over 400 people turned up on a rare glorious and sunny day to enjoy stalls, games, crafts, Club365, an outdoor cafe, karaoke, bouncy castles and ball pits as well as face painting. The day was a lovely day full of laughter and cheer, much appreciated in the community after two long years of covid restrictions. We hope to run more events like this.

Pumpkin Light Trail

Our Pumpkin Light Trail was held on the evening of 28th October 2022. The walks were located within the area of Cambusnethan, as per the previous two years of this event. This offered something for all the family during the autumn season. The walk included a fun activity finding different clues for them to solve. A goodie bag was provided with sweets and an activity booklet. Each station had fun activities for children to get involved in. The families were then invited back to the centre for some food and a hot drink as well as all-age activities.

Christmas Activities

In 2022, we held both a Christmas meal attended by 65 people as well as a Christmas Fayre was held on 3rd December 2022. During the fayre, we had small craft businesses and our own young enterprise group who hosted stalls which included Christmas soaps, jewellery, knitted items and baked goods. The stalls then led us into a snowy Santa's grotto where children were able to visit Santa, get a small gift and also a picture.

The Christmas meal was one of the biggest meals we have hosted inside the centre, offering 5-courses to a range of adults with a variety of needs, alongside carers and others. The big treat was a carol-singing visit from Wishaw Academy, to entertain the group.

Fundraising Work:
This year we have made a concentrated effort in fundraising. We raised a total of £2616 across all fundraising events. This included the above events, such as Gala Day, Pumpkin Light Trail, and Christmas Fayre events. Some of these events (to a total of £459) were specifically for young people, and the rest were for more general centre use. This also included £531 from Kiltwalk.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The Trustees report a surplus of £13,814 for the year (2022 surplus £36,194). Net assets were £160,375 at 31 March 2023 (2022: £146,561).

Income Analysis

Throughout this reporting year, we have been privileged to grow our list of supporters, funders and donors.

We are thankful for those who support us with their finances, as this very much allows us to invest in our capable staff team, who so ably assist and support the local community.

We have seen an overall rise in our income, moving from £239,534 in 2021-22 to £317,053 in 2022-23, which represents an overall increase of 32%. To have achieved this seems remarkable, in light of the cost of living crisis which has hit the general population, as well as Third Sector organisations like ours who strive to support those who need it most. It has involved facing fierce competition in the field of trusts and grants, a downward trend in individual giving, paired with increased costs for supporting people, operating our premises, and more.

One of the biggest changes to our sources of funding is that of the monies available to us for apprentice roles. Whilst in our previous report we had benefited greatly from funding from Community Jobs Scotland, Kickstart as well and Young Person's Guarantee, much of this funding has either come to an end or has been greatly reduced following UK budget cuts, with the Scottish Government following suit. This started with the removal of CJS funding in April 2022, followed by the end of the Kickstart programme. One of our key values is to support young people and those who have been long-term unemployed, so we are hopeful in finding alternative ways to do this in the future.

Grants remain our highest source of income, at 225k (70% - up from 66% last year), with procurement income following at 38k. We claimed gift aid this year, on some major donations, though less than last year, and as you can see from the image, we returned to normal groups, some of which charge a small £1 fee. In contrast, we took the decision to remove membership fees (formerly £2) and replace with a zero-cost membership scheme to support more people.

Expenditure Analysis

Once, again, we have noted an increase in charitable expenditure. In our previous year, this amount was at £203,340, whilst our expenditure sits at £303,239 in this year. This is equivalent to a 49% growth on last year, increasing on the 25% last year. We see that this 49% is alongside the 32% in income.

This has again, been a measured response, aiming to give more directly to the community and support more people through relational means. It does, however, bring our surplus down to a mere £13,814 in this year. We note this as this will be an element to keep an eye on, especially as we increasingly battle other charities for the few funding pots available.

Our main outgoing has once again been staffing, accounting for 79% of our expenditure. For more of the reporting year, we were able to operate with our three planned development works (Kids, Youth, Wellbeing), until December when our youth development worker departed for pastures new. In addition, our hard work paid off in being allocated funding for a Skills and Involvement Co-ordinator who has been overseeing skills, training and volunteering. This has meant our staffing costs have increased, as we have also increased the amount of work we have been able to deliver across the core areas of work.

Following staffing costs at £237,692 (79%), the rest of our costs are broken down with our core operating costs coming out highest at £24,328, which is inclusive of rent, telephone, repairs and maintenance etc. These costs have increased on previous years. We have also broken down costs for our various departments (children, youth and wellbeing), sitting at £12,315, £1502 and £4249 respectively. These costs are inclusive of trips, cafes, community toy drives, and seasonal projects. Other various project costs come in at £8,063 and include event costs, and various equipment purchases such as IT and other consumables. This year we have identified our training costs as we have made a concentrated effort in retaining and training staff to ensure a high quality of delivery.

Reserves policy
The reserves policy is currently set at 3 months running costs plus statutory redundancy provision.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

FUTURE PLANS
We want to thank you all once again for your support throughout this year and invite you to join us on the journey forward. We are fully aware that people are our greatest asset, and whether that's supporting people on their journey of development or inviting people to belong and to transform their community, we aim to continue to be at the heart of the community doing these things.

It will be, no doubt, a year with great challenges ahead. Almost every day, there are new notices of charities cutting back and even closing, facing challenges with funding, and increased prices whilst being asked to support more people in poverty and distress. In fact, two-thirds of charities in the wider sector have reported needing to make cuts to staffing, services and/or look at closing.

We are committed to supporting where we can, but can't ignore the tumultuous road that lies ahead. Given that, we have an ambitious plan for maintaining the level of work we deliver at the moment, and are bracing ourselves for increased requests for food, material support, and mental health and wellbeing support. We don't anticipate an increased staffing team, given the funding situation with apprentices, but do have plans to recruit a fundraising support role, as well as a Youth Development Worker, though our priority is currently investing in the existing team and retaining those roles.

MADE4U are also reaching the end of the 2020-23 strategy and looking to enlist support to develop a new strategy for these times, and also look to recruit further board members who can assist with HR, online presence, fundraising and more. Our goal is to develop the board into subgroups which will further help with the charity's long-term sustainability.

- Clare McCormack, Chief Executive Officer

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023




J R Brown - Trustee

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
MADE4U IN ML2

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages twelve to twenty six.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was 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 accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as 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 accounts.

Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements

- to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations

have not been met; or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

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.

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. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

(a) Donations
Donations are included in the year in which they are receivable and the amount can be measured reliably.

(b) Grants
Grants are included in the year in which they are receivable and the amount can be measured reliably; this is normally upon notification from the grant funder.

(c) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

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.


Tenant improvements - 20% on cost
Office equipment - 33% on cost

Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
