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 July 2025. 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 Objectives of the Charity are;

The advancement of education, in particular but not exclusively, by the provision of courses in Information Technology and Computer Literacy, and; the provision or assistance in the provision of facilities for recreational and leisure time occupation in the interests of social welfare for the benefit of the inhabitants of Romney Marsh and the surrounding area.

Our Aims and Priorities are;

1. To deliver quality teaching, learning and support, leading to successful outcomes for all learners.

2. To deliver innovative and responsive services based on solid evidence of need; in particular through the development of specialist trauma informed psychoeducation and well-being activities that help people for whom mainstream services, education and training are not designed, to progress in life.

3. To invest in facilities, services and staff and maintain a sound financial base, delivering outstanding value for money.

4. To work in partnership with other organisations to benefit the communities of the Romney Marsh.

Significant activities

A huge amount has been achieved over the past twelve months including several building projects to improve the facilities and better reflect externally the ethos and ambition of the organisation. The Trustees are incredibly grateful for the focused efforts of the leadership team and the commitment and talent of all staff. Whilst the following statement and the report itself, highlight the exceptional progress made by the organisation, we feel it important to highlight that the combined efforts of all of our colleagues are the true key to our success.

During the reporting period 'Lighthouse on The Marsh' (LOTM) has settled into its name and stronger branding. It signals the confidence that the charity has in its understanding of the needs of the community it serves; and the abilities of its staff team to deliver the high quality and specific services that meet those needs; with a clear financial and fundraising plan in place to sustain them. The name itself reflects the landscape and place where we are as a community; the consistency, reliability, strength and certainty that clients require to engage with our services when they are facing deeply challenging circumstances; as well as offering the hope of a brighter, safer future.

Public benefit

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit and in particular to its supplementary public benefit guidance.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Education

Lighthouse College

Lighthouse on The Marsh (LOTM) delivers its education programme for young people (aged 16 - 18 or 19 - 24 with and EHCP) through 'Lighthouse College'. It is recognised as an early adopter of a Trauma Informed Approach (TIA) to education delivery and is a designated Specialist Post-16 Institution. Attendees require specific support relating to trauma, social and emotional difficulties and mental health challenges with associated needs. Core funding for education delivery is through the DfE and additionally through KCC who continue to recognise and support the crucial work that is being delivered by the College; with increased funding through commissioned places and higher needs funding.

The Young People who enrol on the programme have previously become disengaged from mainstream education and face significant obstacles to progressing in life through existing systems due to the layers of need that have not been addressed. Many come from the hardest to reach and most vulnerable parts of the community. The curriculum design, learning environment and specialist staff combine to create an ecosystem that supports personal growth, acceptance and space to explore the future as a positive outcome. Delivery is focussed on providing life and work skills through mentoring, counselling, specialist interventions, workshops and activities including work placements and transition to progression support; maths and English sessions aim to give students the skills necessary for the real world as well as to gain GCSE or Functional Skills qualifications.

In the 2024 - 2025 academic year, the college engaged with 25 learners from the Romney Marsh and wider Folkestone and Hythe, and Ashford districts. Learners achieved qualifications in English and maths and made progress towards personal goals with the majority entering further education, training or employment.

Lighthouse College Students have said:

"I feel safe here as the staff are nice to me. I feel better here because at my previous school there was so much pressure on me, and I felt unheard. I would recommend this college because it's a nice environment.

"The staff actually get to know you and listen, whereas other colleges and schools just teach. I prefer it here over other colleges. I love the dogs and all the staff. It is a great place to learn but also socialise.

"I've gained more confidence here and I feel as if I've also gained some life skills. I love the staff for helping me out as much as they can and pushing me to my full potential. Some of my friends struggle with everyday school life and they would progress if they were here."

"I feel safe in this college because everyone is nice and caring and also trustworthy"

"Lighthouse College has boosted my social confidence and made me meet some very sweet people and be hopeful for my future. I feel supported. I'm starting to accept and find myself more."

Post-16 Wrap-around

A crucial part of our work with the young people at the college is the extra-curricular wrap around care and clubs. These include 'Aspirations' activities such as cultural experiences and visits; games, breakfast, cookery, art and nature clubs that represent both an opportunity for the young people to learn vital life skills and a chance to participate in fun therapeutic activities with a caring, attentive and trauma informed team. Activities are used to model healthy behaviours and relationships and as a time to talk with the young people about the things that they are struggling with or that might be troubling them. It also increases the amount of time that the young people are in our care; safe, warm and with their basic needs met.

"I look forward to ACE every week, we often do a wide variety of creative subjects such as pencil, paints and chalks, we also explore creative thinking".

Counselling

Fifteen hours of counselling is made available per week for young people and is utilised for both one to one and group work. The impact of this work is very significant and can be transformative in the life of a young person who may otherwise feel that their voice should not be heard, that their struggle and pain is unimportant and that there is no hope of making any changes through their own actions or understanding of their mental health. Understanding and organising thoughts is critical to development; counselling offers the space to explore these things and develop tools to sustain the practise into adulthood and supports positive outcomes in education and employment.

SEND Service

Our SEND Service is a one stop shop for parents, carers, family members and professionals to go to gain a better understanding of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) through information, advice and guidance, and to receive support through advocacy and mediation services where applicable. In the last twelve months, the service has helped over 450 families through one-to-one support and peer groups. In response to identified themes of need we set up 3 support groups and a stand-alone drop in service to allow families to come together to discuss challenges, meet with experts and share solutions as well as to reduce the sense of isolation that so many of our clients feel Support groups for parents have covered topics such as: Violent and Challenging Behaviour, Special Guardianship Orders, Eating disorders, and Hearing Impairment.

The team have had contact with over 20 schools in the Marsh, Folkestone and Ashford areas and worked with and had referrals from Early Help, Social Services, Ashford Rural PCN, and Lenworth Clinic as well as a number of schools.

Parents have said:

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you for your time and expert advice. I am so much better informed now and we have a much clearer idea of what we need to do to get our child the support he needs. Your support is very much appreciated."

"It is refreshing to speak to someone who gets it. Thank you so much for talking to me. It means such a lot. Thank you for all your help and for helping all those parents out there."

"Your recommendations are really clear and useful and you have provided me with good points to consider that I had not previously. This has really helped to decrease my "overwhelm" and create a focus for moving forward."

The Re-Set Programme

The Re-Set Programme was launched in September 2022 to address the large number of challenges to adult mental and physical wellbeing that were identified locally. The Programme's naissance and design was inspired by the organisational learning derived from almost fifteen years of delivering specialist education provision for young people living with social, emotional and mental health challenges which, in the main, result from the experience of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Re-Set is designed with the understanding that a vast number of adults carry the unprocessed trauma of their childhood with them into later life, to the detriment of their mental and physical health, wellbeing, educational and socio-economic outcomes. It combines psychoeducation with a menu of therapeutic activities to improve mind and body health and wellbeing, for example; mindfulness, arts & crafts, yoga, nature walks, animal connections, healthy eating and nutrition and music. The Re-Set team now includes a 1-1 key worker who guides clients who wish to engage in more bespoke action planning to help overcome barriers to their wellbeing and good health.

The Re-Set programme has developed to deliver bespoke course elements according to specific chronic conditions and is currently partnering with The Paula Carr Charitable Trust to create impactful interventions for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics and their families. The team have engaged the services of pertinent clinicians to provide advice and guidance to the clients who would not otherwise have contact with these vital professionals. Qualitative and quantitative data clearly indicates the value and benefit of the service and this data has been shared with local healthcare teams to improve services together. LOTM and PCCT will continue to develop the programmes for Diabetics, reaching further into our community and providing life-improving interventions and support.

In the reporting period 78 participants engaged with the Programme with an age range of 24-85. Participants were asked to provide relevant, anonymised data at the beginning, throughout the Programme and at the end. Fifty percent (50%) of participants had been a primary care giver in the past two years; 64% reported having a chronic or long-term medical condition; 6% reported having experienced feelings of loneliness in the last two years; 60% reported having experienced poor Mental Health in the last two years, with 57% citing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression or PTSD. Forty three (43%) of participants reported experiencing domestic abuse in the last two years and 50% reported experiencing physical, verbal or emotional violence in their childhood. Sixty four percent (64%) reported experiencing a bereavement in the past five years and 50% reported experiencing financial hardship.

Outcomes: 100% of participants reported that the Programme had improved their Mental Health; 80% reported sleeping better; 63% reported feeling more motivated to make changes to their life. Prior to the course 80% reported that they felt that they had insufficient exercise built into their daily routine. After the course 80% reported having increased their daily exercise.

Re-Set Participants have said:

"I feel less alone and more seen."

"I have met some lovely caring people, and I just feel happier."

"I have learned new things that have helped me process my grief."

"I've realised that everyone struggles, and Re-set has given me new confidence."

"I've learned to be more confident with who I am."

"This has changed how I am with my children for the better."

"I miss having family around, and this has helped me socialise, make friends, and improve my English."

"I didn't think I had anything left to give, and this has showed me that I do."

"Thank you for giving me the tools to re-start my life."

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The trustees have decided that holding reserves is good practice with a target to build up £158,000 of unrestricted funds (or 3 months running costs) over the course of the next 3 years. The amount of the total funds held was £252,799 at the period end including restricted funds of £54,537 to fulfil ongoing projects. The amount of unrestricted reserves is £198,262 which is over 4 months of running costs. The Trustees are confident of current funding levels being sustainable and continue to monitor the level of reserves and explore options to develop the charity in a way that is safe and meaningful.

The Trustees would like to acknowledge the generous support from all of our funders during the period, who have all helped to make possible the vital services that we deliver: Cantiacorum Foundation; Chapman Charitable Trust; Colyer Fergusson Charitable Trust; Department for Education; Folkestone & Hythe District Council; The Garfield Weston Foundation; Kent Community Foundation; Kent County Council; Little Cheyne Windfarm; Locality; Mrs Smith and Mount Trust; National Lottery Community Fund; the Paula Carr Charitable Trust; Philip & Connie Phillips Foundation; Roger De Haan Charitable Trust; The Skinners' Charity Foundation; Social Enterprise Kent; The Tory Family Foundation; Trusthouse Charitable Foundation; Fidelity Foundation.

FUTURE PLANS

LOTM strives to continuously add value and quality to each of our services and we look forward to a period of developing the staff team further to maximise existing skills and experience whilst growing knowledge and confidence that combined delivers the best possible outcomes for our clients. We are equally committed to our staff and to growing our success together; 'what' we deliver and 'who' delivers it are inextricably linked. As we cement our operations and develop our services we aim to continue to work with local partners who share our vision, maintain the high standards within their organisation and can add value to our delivery.

LOTM remains committed to delivering the highest quality, free, education, health and wellbeing services to our community. We know that so many of the solutions to the challenges that our community faces need to come from within our community and we are grateful to all of our supporters and funders who help us to find and implement them.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Lighthouse on the Marsh ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1.	accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

2.	the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3.	the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

4.

the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
