Directors' report period ended 28 February 2025

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the period ended 28 February 2025

Additional information

Statement of directors' responsibilities The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the accounts 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 accounts 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 accounts, the directors are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - prepare the accounts 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 accounts 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. Small company provisions This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small companies within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

Company activities and impact

Hethersett Hearts CIC has continued to operate a not-for-profit Community Post Office whic has provided a vital service to Hethersett and the surrounding area. This is a service which would, if trends are indicative of likely events, have closed and be unavailable to local people without the operation of the CIC. In addition to normal Post Office services (inland and international mail, banking, parcels, DVLA licensing, stamps and postal orders etc) and the retail section of the store (greetings cards, stationery and postal items) Hethersett Hearts CIC has also run an employability scheme. The scheme has successfully supported those with learning difficulties to gain valuable work experience, skills, confidence which in some cases has led to paid employment with other employers.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company's stakeholder are the residents of Hethersett and surrounding areas and those taking part in the employability program, our partner organisations in this and our grant funding bodies. We encourage our customers to leave reviews on our google business profile and respond appropriately to these and conduct customer service surveys. We have held periodic meetings with our funding organisations and provided them with appropriate reports. In addition, we consult regularly with our partner organisations in the employability scheme and organise meetings with our volunteers as often as possible whilst also periodically seeking feedback and consultation via WhatsApp groups. We also maintain an active Facebook page to liaise further with the local community.
