Annual Report and Financial Statements 2024/25
Dimensions is one of the UK's largest not-for-profit providers of support for people with learning disabilities and autistic people, including those with complex needs and behaviours of distress. In 2024/25 the charity supported over 2,600 people across England and Wales, starting support for 173 new people, and provided accommodation to 1,007 people. A Group operating surplus of £993k was achieved despite significant sector pressures from National Insurance increases and rising National Minimum Wage costs. Voluntary staff turnover reduced by 4.2% and Great Place to Work accreditation was secured for the seventh consecutive year. A refreshed strategy to 2027 focuses on quality, scale, capacity, reputation and sustainability. Some loss-making contracts were handed back to local authorities, and strategic partnerships are being explored with like-minded organisations.
