Financial Review
Financial Position
As shown in the Statement of Financial Activities (page 7) total income for the year to 31 March 2026 amounted to £132,028 (2024-2025 £54,301) and expenditure in the furtherance of charitable activities totalled £120,876 (2024-2025 - £97,328). Again, in a very difficult climate for fundraising, after huge efforts from the management and the high quality of the services, Wise Thoughts attracted sufficient income to cover the running costs which resulted in a Net resources surplus of £11,152 (2024-2025 Net deficit- £43,027).
The CEO/Artistic director and his team control all costs rigorously. The services are much admired and viewed as important models to emulate, however in these financially challenging times it is extremely difficult to attract necessary funding. The Trustees are addressing the strategic planning essential for the provision of services within the framework of the anticipated funding.
The future of Wise Thoughts services is dependent on continued support from statutory sources and income from grants and donations, which are vital for the maintenance and expansion of services to meet the increasing demand.
Total net assets of the charity as at 31 March 2026 were £53,975 (2024-2025 - £42,823). Income received for the year for specific purposes was spent as necessary and unspent balance is carried forward to be utilised next financial year.
In providing day to day services, the Trustees are mindful of the charity's duty to comply with section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission.
Reserves Policy
The Board of Trustees is responsible for deciding how to invest the Charity's reserves. The appropriate level of reserves is established through an annual review of the Charity's requirements and stated in the financial report. The Treasurer is responsible for proposing to the Board the balance of cash on deposit and investments, and acts on the Board's instructions.
Going Concern
The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees are aware however of material uncertainties that cast doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees have (where appropriate) utilised the grants and benefits available from the organisations and government and are taking all the steps they can to protect the future of the charity.
Principal funding sources
The future of Wise Thoughts services is dependent on continued support from statutory sources and income from grants and donations, which are essential for the maintenance and expansion of services to meet the increasing demand.
Wise Thoughts provides key services and develops unique arts and training projects that help to profile/meet the needs of marginalised individuals and is supported in part by The Community Fund with in-kind support from other agencies. We are aware that funding may become an issue in future years, and we need to monitor this. Wise Thoughts must continually look for funding from other organisations, charitable and corporate bodies and individual donors.
In the year under review funding was received from Big Lottery Community Fund, Haringey Council, other organisations and individual donors.

Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Trustee Selection Methods
Every person who wishes to be a Member and a trustee as such, shall deliver to the Company an application for membership in such form as the Directors require executed by that person.
At the next meeting of the Trustees after the receipt of any application for membership, the application shall be considered by the Trustees who shall decide upon the admission or rejection of the applicant.
Organisational structure
Wise Thoughts has a Management Committee of up to seven members who meet regularly and are responsible for strategic direction and policy of the charity. The committee members are from a variety of backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity. Committee meetings attendees include the trustees and two contracted staff - CEO/Artistic Director and Programme Manager.
A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of services rest with the trustees along with the CEO/Artistic Director and the Programme Manager. The trustees are responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met. The Artistic Director has responsibility for the day-to-day operational management of the charity, individual supervision of contracted members and ensuring that the team continues to develop their skills and working practices in line with good practice.
Induction and training of new trustees
New trustees receive a comprehensive induction package, with information covering the duties of a trustee, a trustee job description and service agreement, an outline of the vision, mission and implementation of the charity's services, the latest Report and Accounts, current year's budget and latest management accounts.
All trustees are invited to familiarise themselves with the operations of Wise Thoughts by meeting the CEO/Artistic Director and staff at a weekly Team meeting that reviews service delivery and by appointment when appropriate. Trustees are encouraged to make use of the training and conference opportunities provided by the National Council of Voluntary Organisations (NVCO) and other bodies.
Partnerships and co-operation with other charities and organisations
Wise Thoughts is committed to working in partnership with organisations that help to benefit the aims and objectives of the organisation and its programme of work, it has collaborated with other statutory and voluntary organisations in the development and presentation of individual projects that have included arts festivals, conferences, and training initiatives within the past year. Staff regularly attend meetings, forums, seminars, and consultative processes co-ordinated by local, regional and national government and other community and voluntary organisations. They serve as independent advisors to the local authority and Metropolitan Police Services on policy development, implementation and other matters related to the primary beneficiaries of the organisation and its programme of work. They serve as community lead on the LGBT+ Community Network initiated by Haringey Council.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Other Information
Future Plans
Considering the current economic climate and the impact from the Cost-of-Living crisis on the programme, the organisation continues to review its business plan/operational model to help it ensure sustainability and will make any changes needed. It remains committed to supporting the primary beneficiaries of our activities and services (Global Majority / LGBTQI+ people) and will aim to continue delivery of a programme of key activities and associated services.
The organisation plans to continue working strategically at a Borough level, with the Council and other agencies to help achieve our objectives. The current economic climate and reduction in funding available from both statutory and other sources, has had an impact on all small voluntary organisations and will lead to the re-evaluation of any proposed new services by the organisation.

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors of Wise Thoughts for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statement unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:
  • select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
  • observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
  • make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
  • prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at anytime the financial position of the charitable company and to 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.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Small Company Rules
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2026.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the charity 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
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:

  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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Wise Thoughts is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 03758786 and registered charity number 1077616 . The registered office is .
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements 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 charitable company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
2.2. Financial Reporting Standard 102 - Reduced Disclosure Exemptions
The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
  • the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17 (d).
2.3. Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
2.4. Incoming Resources
Income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity has entitlement to the resources, meaning any performance conditions attached to the income have been met or are wholly within the charity's control. Recognition also requires that receipt of the income is probable, rather than merely possible, and that the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. Where any of these criteria are not met, for example where entitlement is subject to conditions outside the charity's control, the income is instead deferred and recognised in a later period once the conditions have been satisfied. Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account any trade discounts.
2.5. Resources Expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred, reflecting the charity's entitlement to the goods or services regardless of the timing of payment. It includes any VAT which cannot be recovered, as this represents a direct cost to the charity rather than a recoverable input, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
2.6. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Plant & Machinery at variable rates on reducing balance
Fixtures & Fittings 10% on reducing balance
Computer Equipment 20% on reducing balance
2.7. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to a known amount of cash with insignificant risk of change in value, and bank overdrafts.
2.8. Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax as all its income is charitable and applied for charitable purposes.
