REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 |
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 2024. 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 and aims |
The principal activity of the Council, which has not changed since last year, is the provision of a counselling and advisory service for people affected by alcohol related problems and to their loved ones impacted by their drinking. |
The Council is a voluntary organisation which offers a non-judgemental, confidential counselling recovery service to those whose lives are being adversely affected by alcohol. Counsellors, trained to professional standards, enable people to look at their lifestyle and make informed choices. It has a commitment to inform and educate organisations and individuals in the community on the safe, sensible use of alcohol and of its potential dangers. Membership is open to all who share its commitments. |
ACA is not an anti-drinks organisation but works with individuals whether they wish to abstain or control their drinking to less hazardous levels. |
The Board of Trustees are satisfied with the progress made during the year and believe the Council to be in a good position to deal with the challenges of the coming year. |
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Charitable activities |
The Council is funded by core income and grant income, details of which are provided at Note 4 to the accounts. |
Our manager, Kerry McGee, was responsible for the day to day activities of the charity for the entire year of this report. |
The multidisciplinary East Ayrshire RADAR (Rapid Access to Drug & Alcohol Recovery) Service consisting of staff from East Ayrshire NHS Addictions, We Are With You East Ayrshire Recovery Service & ACA following evaluation will continue to be funded until 30th September 2026. The Service Specification agreement is being reviewed and yet to be agreed. |
The South Ayrshire Justice Service refunded the one year fixed term post from 1st April 2023 to provide a counsellor to support those who were instructed to attend ACA as part of an Alcohol Treatment Order, Community Payback Order or Licence Conditions. |
ACA continues to focus on providing a high quality person centred, trauma informed alcohol recovery service for individuals and their families, continuing to meet and often exceed the Scottish Government's HEAT targets of a waiting time of 21 days for the first appointment. Ms Elena Whitham, Scottish Government Minister for Alcohol & Drugs Policy visited the organisation in November 2023 and met with staff and trustees to discuss demands on the service which includes the focus on funding being allocated to tackling drug related deaths which is disproportionate to the funding received for supporting those adversely affected by alcohol, given the impact of excessive alcohol use on individuals, loved ones and our communities. |
ACA continues to seek to reduce alcohol related harm via digital media (Facebook page, ACA website), awareness articles in the local press, local radio bulletins and by attending networking events in the local communities. |
Service users continue to be consulted to ensure that ACA is meeting the Scottish Government's Quality Principles via questionnaires and recovery stories which were shared via the ACA Facebook page, website and partner organisations' digital mediums. A Service User's Focus Group was formed so that individual's with lived experience could be involved in reviewing service provision and promoting the organisation locally. The aim is to address the stigma surrounding those who have alcohol problems and loved one's affected by someone else's drinking and encourage referral to the service. |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 |
FINANCIAL REVIEW |
Financial position |
The results for the year and the financial position of the company are shown in the annexed financial statement. |
The trustees report a surplus of £14,616 (2023 - deficit of £13,003) for the year and a total fund balance at 31st March 2024 of £141,939 (2023 - £127,323). |
Investment policy |
The Board of Trustees have the power to invest in such assets as they see fit. |
Reserves policy |
The council has considered the reserves required and have taken into account their current and future liabilities. The trustees aim to maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at a level which equates to approximately nine months of unrestricted charitable expenditure and provides for uncertainties in future future funding. |
The balance held at 31st March 2024 as unrestricted funds was £99,055 of which £98,315 is regarded as free reserves after allowing for funds tied up in tangible assets. Nine months' unrestricted expenditure is in the region of £107,000 and therefore the trustees believe that the level of free reserves are acceptable. |
FUTURE PLANS |
Ayrshire Council on Alcohol will continue to deliver the service in line with the service specification. Any service improvements which can be developed within existing resources will be implemented. Options for further funding opportunities will be explored. |
Specific projects for next year include: |
- Continued promotion of the service using a Whole Family Approach Model |
- A reviewed role for the ACA staff member working within East Ayrshire RADAR Service. |
- Explore further opportunities regarding external funding |
- Redecorate the premises |
- Continue with the digital improvement plan |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 |
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. |
Approved by order of the board of trustees on |
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF |
AYRSHIRE COUNCIL ON ALCOHOL THE |
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024 set out on pages six to sixteen. |
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 2024 |
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. |
At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts. |
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. |
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. |
Computer equipment 2 years straight line |
Tenants improvements 10 years straight line or over the life of the lease if shorter |
Office equipment & fixtures 5 years straight line |
Assets costing less than £500 are not capitalised. |
Taxation |
The company is a registered charity and is accordingly exempt from taxation on income which is applied for charitable purposes. The company is not registered for Value Added Tax and, accordingly, any such irrecoverable tax is included in the expenditure concerned. |
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. |
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. |
Leasing commitments |
