Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 October 2025

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts. Turnover includes grants received. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life. Property improvements over 10 years

    Valuation information and policy

    Debtors - Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Creditors - Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.

    Other accounting policies

    Taxation - A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Company activities and impact

Yaran Northwest CIC is a specialist trauma-responsive organisation providing culturally and linguistically appropriate mental health support to underserved communities across Greater Manchester. We primarily support refugees, asylum seekers, and individuals from racialised communities experiencing complex trauma, displacement, and significant barriers to accessing mainstream services. Our services are delivered in multiple languages including Farsi, Dari, Urdu, Turkish, Kurdish, Arabic, Tigrinya, Amharic, Pashto, and English. This enables us to engage individuals who are often excluded from traditional services, ensuring early intervention, trust, and meaningful therapeutic outcomes. During this reporting period, Yaran delivered trauma-informed and responsive interventions including one-to-one counselling (including Step 3 and 3+ level), crisis-responsive support, psychoeducational programmes, and community-based wellbeing activities. All services are provided by qualified bilingual therapists, combining clinical expertise with cultural understanding. All psychotherapy sessions are conducted under appropriate clinical supervision and in line with safeguarding requirements, ensuring safe, ethical, and high-quality delivery of care. In addition, Yaran actively engages in research activities to support evidence-based practice and contribute to the wider understanding of trauma-responsive approaches within diverse communities. Our trauma-responsive model enables early intervention and prevents escalation into crisis. We support over 1,200 individuals annually, with over 90% reporting improved mental wellbeing, reduced anxiety and depression, and increased ability to manage daily life, measured through recognised tools such as PHQ-9 and GAD-7. Yaran plays a critical system role as a trusted bridge between marginalised communities and statutory services, including the NHS and local authorities. Our work directly contributes to reducing health inequalities, improving access to mental health care, and responding effectively to trauma within communities that are often overlooked

Consultation with stakeholders

Yaran Northwest CIC identifies its stakeholders as service users, community representatives, local authorities, NHS bodies, funding organisations, and voluntary and community sector partners.

This includes the systematic collection of service user feedback through validated outcome measurement tools (including PHQ-9 and GAD-7), formal feedback forms, and ongoing case review processes. In addition, stakeholder engagement is undertaken through partnership meetings, referral pathway coordination, and community outreach activities. Feedback is reviewed on a continuous basis by management and clinical leadership teams and is incorporated into service development, quality assurance, and delivery planning. As a result of stakeholder consultation, the Company has implemented targeted improvements, including the expansion of bilingual and culturally appropriate service provision, enhancement of access pathways for underserved groups, and strengthening of collaborative working arrangements with statutory and voluntary sector partners. These measures ensure that the Company operates in a responsive, accountable, and community-focused manner, with services aligned to identified needs and delivered in accordance with its community interest objectives.
