NAZ PROJECT LONDON (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The Trustees present their report which also includes the directors’ report as required by company law and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charitable company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006, and 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 (“FRS102”) (effective 1 January 2019).

Objectives and Activities

The charity was incorporated on 9 August 1996 and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, which were amended by special resolution on 15 October 2002.

Nazir was a Pakistani Muslim, married with two children. He was also a closeted gay man who was living with HIV. When his status became public, he was rejected by his mosque, ostracised by his community and found no social support that understood that he had more than one identity.

NAZ was set up in his memory and is one of the largest sexual health charities in London initiated and led by ethnic minorities. It is also one of the longest established charities of this type and focuses predominantly on sexual health improvement and HIV support services for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities.

The work of the organisation is delivered through four key work streams:

  1. HIV care and support services, for people living with and affected by HIV

  2. Sexual Health Promotion including targeted support for BAME LGBTQ+ communities, faith communities and those at risk of acquiring HIV, STIs and experiencing poor sexual health

  3. Clinical Services: HIV and STI testing and screening, as well as counselling services

  4. Research, influencing and policy development

The NAZ board, staff and volunteers are recruited from the communities we seek to impact and support is available in multiple languages. Today, NAZ offers the most relevant range of sexual health services and programmes, specifically for people from BAME communities.

Public Benefit

The trustees confirm they have complied with the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011, to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. The purpose of the charity is enshrined in its objectives and mission statement. The trustees ensure this is carried out for the public benefit by delivering a range of activities to meet its intent.

NAZ PROJECT LONDON (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Reserves Policy

The trustees have agreed a reserves policy whereby the free reserves (unrestricted funds held in net current assets, excluding funds held in tangible fixed assets) held by the charity should be equivalent to the value of approximately 3 months of non-discretionary resources expended (£200,000).

As at 31 March 2021, free reserves, as defined above, amount to £23,750 (2020: £4,385). This is an increase of £19,365. The increase in free reserves makes a start to meet the trustees’ stated strategic objective of achieving the free reserves figure within 3 to 5 years but there is still more to do.

The charity saw a surplus in the 2020/2021 financial year, driven by an increase in grants as well as cost savings following a thorough budget review in the previous year to scrutinise and eliminate unnecessary costs. Income shifted toward grants and donations, reflecting the impact of the pandemic, which prevented the charity from holding events to generate sponsorships, or other charitable activities that were held in previous years. As a result the charity applied for emergency funding to help with increased demand from service users and to support core costs and sustainability. The impact of pandemic restrictions also reduced office costs.

A significant proportion of current costs is funded by restricted income, from a variety of funders, and is therefore predictable and managed. Should the level of funding decrease significantly then associated costs would also decrease and free reserves would enable current activities to continue in the short term.

The charity continues its focus on balancing the current needs of delivering critical prevention and support services, meeting the needs of its beneficiaries, whilst increasing its free reserves to the level determined by its policy.

Recruitment, induction and training of trustees

The governing body of the charity is the board of trustees which is comprised of four members.

Trustees are appointed by an open recruitment process. Potential trustees can be recruited through recommendation, referral from a recruiting organisation or as a result of advertisement. Potential trustees will, in the first instance, be met by the CEO and or Chair and be given an overview of the organisation from an operational perspective.

2

NAZ PROJECT LONDON (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Potential new trustees will be given written background information about the organisation and will be invited to meet with representatives of the board. The subsequent meeting with members of the board will ascertain their skills, background and professional experience of working within a governance role. Following this meeting and upon receipt of references, recommendations will be made to the board of trustees and, if there is agreement, the new candidate will be invited to attend the subsequent board meeting.

The Company Secretary will then notify Companies House of the appointment. Trustees are appointed for a period of four years and can serve for a maximum of eight years. Each of the trustees is also a member of the company and guarantees to contribute up to £1 to the assets of the company in the event of a winding up.

The Trustees delegate the day-to-day management duties of the organisation to the CEO and Senior Management Team.

Pay and Remuneration

NAZ is committed to the principle of equal pay for all genders. In this context ‘pay’ includes not only remuneration, but also other benefits such as promotion and training opportunities and access to facilities provided within the employment package from time to time. NAZ is committed to introducing and maintaining pay systems which are free from sexual bias.

People employed by us are entitled to equal pay if they are undertaking work which is substantially similar or is of equal value to the organisation, unless there are specific and clear reasons unconnected with their gender which explain and justify a differential in pay. In some cases, individuals carrying out similar work may receive different salaries because of seniority, qualifications and other such factors.

Pay scales are in line with national averages for the activities nominated. Any increase to pay will be subject to a board motion, and agreement with the Finance Manager, Line Manager and CEO. Any increase will take effect from 1 July following the review. Pay will not be reviewed whilst employees are in their probationary period.

Funders

The trustees, staff and clients of NAZ would like to take this opportunity to thank all the funders from 2020/21. Without their invaluable support, it would not have been possible to operate.

Summary of Results

The net incoming resources for the year amounted to £1,145,974. Restricted reserves carried forward amounted to £379,372. Unrestricted reserves to be carried forward amounted to £133,545.

NAZ is a sexual health charity whose services are dedicated to people experiencing better sexual health. We do this because there is a significant gap in the sexual health outcomes of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities, compared to the general population. Everything NAZ does works to reverse this trend. In addition to a programme of project work aimed at improving sexual health equality, NAZ addresses these inequalities through influencing policy and practice. We seek to promote the needs of BAME communities and bring the latter to the attention of government, health providers and other third sector organisations with the aim of sharing best practice and ensuring appropriate service provision.

20/21 Operations Overview

Covid-19 has made 2020/21 an unprecedented year of loss, disruption and economic hardship. The murder of George Floyd and the subsequent resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement reverberated across the world and both these global events had a profound impact on our beneficiaries. The pandemic has amplified and exacerbated longstanding social, economic, health and structural inequalities BAME communities have faced for decades, with a disproportionate rate of deaths from Covid-19 in BAME communities. The Institute of Fiscal Studies estimated that the deaths of people of Black African ethnicity are 3.7 times higher than might be expected by geography and age, 2.9 times higher for those of Pakistani ethnicity and 1.8 for Black Caribbean ethnicities. The two waves of Covid-19 and two national lock downs have disproportionately affected Black, Brown and Minoritised communities, of whom NAZ directly serves some of the most vulnerable. As a BAME-led agency, the NAZ workforce has also experienced high levels of bereavement and mental health challenges during the past 12 months.

NAZ PROJECT LONDON (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

NAZ responded with an emergency food distribution scheme supporting 106 households pan-London delivering nutritious, culturally appropriate and non-perishable food and toiletries to vulnerable service users. We continued to provide 1-to-1 casework support to service users to help those most in need. We also joined forces with University College London to provide clinical outreach support to help the Covid-19 vaccination effort with asylum seeker populations across London in 8 community languages, and launched a Reflexology service to support those most impacted by Covid-19 to receive free health and wellbeing interventions.

Demand for NAZ counselling increased throughout 2020/21 as our target communities coped with multiple challenges and losses, and our volunteer counselling team increased in size to reflect this.

Data published in November 2020 for 2019 showed new HIV diagnosis across the UK fell once again. The statistics below show the extent of the work that remains:

Between April and June 2020 NAZ led a coalition of HIV agencies and wrote to the All-Party Parliament Group on HIV and AIDS (APPG) and a number of other national key stakeholders including the Health Secretary to alert them to the impact Covid-19 was having on BAME communities, staff, service users, and the financial health of the BAME charity sector. The letter was signed by a number of both BAME and non-BAME signatories within the sector, recognising the limited number of BAMEled agencies providing services and the economic threat of Covid-19 to this sector. We also submitted written and oral evidence to the APPG. As well as focussing on the domestic agenda and supporting the work of the HIV Commission, we also continued with our pre-pandemic work plans to advocate for global parity of HIV outcomes as part of the UNAIDS 2030 target to reach zero transmissions of HIV with the launch of the Global HIV Collaborative, which resumed its work with international partners in January 2021.

NAZ, in partnership with Metro Charity, were proud recipients of a PHE Innovation Fund Award to make 5 short films featuring Latin American people living with HIV to address the impact of stigma and the benefits of early diagnosis and treatment.

NAZ was also a partner in the Comic Relief-commissioned Metro partnership tasked with distributing £650K emergency Covid-19 support funds to LGBTQ+ charities across the 4 home nations. The Comic Relief LGBTQ+ Covid-19 Fund was used to support 80 LGBTQ+ groups and organisations across the UK, ranging from £200 micro-grants up to large grants of £15,000.

Our local authority partnerships programmes with SASH, Brook, CLASH and Outer North West London covering 11 London Boroughs all faced significant disruption as we were forced to migrate our services online and look to recalibrate our KPIs in response to the challenges of the pandemic.

Although multiyear and project funding decreased in 20/21, emergency funding from the London Community Team, Gilead and National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF) enabled NAZ to weather the challenges of the year as we migrated our services online and developed a new hybrid working method with enhanced IT infrastructure.

The Communications Manager post, funded by NLCF had a significant role during the past 12 months. As most of our contractual KPIs were repurposed to online delivery NAZ has been able to maintain a strong profile online supporting a presence and facilitating engagement for Black History Month, LGBT History Month, World AIDS Day, and National HIV Testing week where 9,339 people were reached through the development of the NAZ HIV Testing videos alone.

In addition, we were very proud of the online Boisterous Ravens offer and events, an evening of live Spoken Word performance for and featuring strong Black women and Black non-binary voices which created a safe space for women of colour to come online to connect, perform and voice their experiences of Covid-19. We also continued with our monthly No More Silence peer support groups for Black gay, bisexual and men who have sex with men and delivered them online. Both were crucial online spaces to support the mental health of our service users.

NAZ saw a great many changes to the workforce in 20/21 with the departure of Marion Wadibia, CEO of NAZ in June 2020 and a number of staff members throughout the year. We also saw a number of new staff join the organisation. Parminder Sekhon joined NAZ in May 2020 and has been working hard with the team to steer NAZ’s course during this precarious and demanding year.

1. Covid-19

Covid-19 and the two national lockdowns have disproportionately impacted on Black, Brown and Minoritised communities, and has had a profound impact on our beneficiaries. As a Black-led agency, NAZ workforce and sector colleagues have also experienced high levels of bereavement and mental health challenges. In the face of this crisis, NAZ has adapted all of our programmes to continue providing support to our most impacted communities.

Covid-19 emergency support

NAZ was awarded emergency Covid-19 funding from Big Lottery and CCLORS to enable us to support our core beneficiaries during this year of unprecedented loss and economic hardship. For the first time, we have repurposed our faith and community networks to provide emergency food and menstrual hygiene supplies weekly to many clients.

Highlights:

“NAZ thank you so much for having the kind people come and deliver the food so far out to me, this has been a tremendous help. I have no job, I have four children, I have been struggling since the lock down and your help providing me with this food on a regular basis has been a Godsend. Bless you. I thank you sincerely, from the bottom of my heart. Without your help I don’t know what I would have done, I am really struggling.” - Male Client living with HIV, East London

“Due to my disability and I’m suffering from cancer and accessing chemotherapy, the providing of this food service is a great service for me. I have a very poor health and it is essential for me to get the good nutritional benefit of food. The food package is ideal as it contains fruits and vegetables and other essential items that will last me for weeks. I’m so grateful to NAZ for helping me for the past several months in making sure my health and wellbeing is being met. Thank you again” – Female client

2 – HIV Care and support services

The HIV Care and Support Service is funded and supported by Big Lottery, and is an integrated service for Black, Asian and Racially Minoritised individuals living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. We conduct client work to ensure newly diagnosed people with HIV experience greater choice, control and empowerment in managing their lives; and improve their psychological wellbeing.

Highlights

Case Study:

Client A has received £200 from the emergency hardship. He is unable to work due to advanced Aidsrelated illnesses. He was first diagnosed in 2020 with a CD4 count of 15, which has now risen to 142. He is married with three children who all live in one room in private accommodation. NAZ is working with him and his family to obtain social services support and immigration support to attempt to regularise his status.

3. Sexual Health Promotion

Paramos el VIH (Let’s Stop HIV)

Let’s Stop HIV is a NAZ campaign to improve the health outcomes of the Latin American population, delivering HIV care and support interventions to Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking communities in London, funded by the Elton John Aids Foundation as part of the LSL Social Investment Bond.

Highlights:

Case Study:

Brazilian citizen A, 26 years old, contacted NAZ Autumn 2020. A had been diagnosed with HIV in 2015 while living in Brazil. He had been on treatment before arriving to the UK in September of 2020. On meeting the client, it was evident that he needed support that went beyond solely HIV care. NAZ referred him to a Latin support project for immigration support, and the Coalition of Latin Americans in the UK (CLAUK) to address broader health concerns. In addition to that, A was chaperoned by a NAZ employee to Guy’s hospital in London, where his CD4/Viral load was tested. NAZ further supported A in linking and registering with his local GP where he successfully completed his registration.

SASH Partnership

SASH offers sexual health services to people who live in three London boroughs: Westminster, Hammersmith & Fulham, and Kensington and Chelsea. SASH is a partnership led by Turning Point, alongside NAZ, London Friend, METRO Charity, and Marie Stopes UK.

The work we do at SASH is not exclusive to BAME communities however our contribution includes two BAME engagement coordinators, a well-being coach, a counsellor, a care coordinator and peer mentor lead for BAME women.

“I enjoyed the space to be open to various discussions about our bodies, which I very rarely do.” - Reclaiming our bodies workshop attendee

“I enjoyed the talk about confidence and interviews, as I was able to give advice to my daughter. Also talking about the importance of being kind to yourself.” - Positive self-talk workshop attendee

"I am getting so much everywhere from my counselling sessions, initially I was not sure but I have learnt that this is a gradual progressive process and I am benefiting new ways of thinking and understanding also improving my general mental awareness. Examples include me not using drugs alcohol and sitting with my feelings living life sober and changing my narrative to situations and my general thinking this helps me with my fear and anxiety and above all not going back to chemsex and drinking. All of this with [my counsellor] is helping me with my self-care. Other areas are improved relationships with family and myself. Keeping boundaries and understanding more about myself." - Counselling service user, SASH, Male, Indian, 40s

ONWL and Hillingdon Partnership

ONWL was a partnership between NAZ, Terrence Higgins Trust and Hillingdon borough council working across Outer North West London, to deliver sexual and reproductive health and HIV services across Brent, Ealing, Harrow, and Hillingdon boroughs, each of which has significant proportions of BAME communities.

Though many of our ordinary activities were curtailed by Covid-19, we continued to link clients to sexual health clinics, conduct online sexual health awareness raising, and support people living with HIV in the boroughs. This contract ended October 31[st] 2020.

CLASH in Camden and Islington

NAZ is a partner within the Central London Action on Sexual Health (CLASH) outreach service located in Camden and Islington. CLASH provides free and confidential sexual health outreach services for sex workers, homeless people, drug users, Black Asian and Minority Ethnic people (BAME) and men who have sex with men (MSM) living or working in the boroughs

Highlights:

Boisterous Ravens

Boisterous Ravens is a series of live Spoken Word performance for and featuring Black women and Black non-binary voices.

Highlights:

“Last night’s Boisterous Ravens was such a beautiful, raw, authentic and inspiring evening. A powerful reminder of why we are here and why we have to continue.”

“Last night absolutely did that for me. It was humbling to hear so many stories of quiet defiance and superhuman strength. To listen to the voices of your beneficiaries really brought home the important and life-affirming work you do. So thank you very much for inviting me. I’ll remember last night for a long time.”

Love, Sex, Life

The Love, Sex, Life service is a partnership set up in April 2020 to support the sexual health and wellbeing of BAME people including LGBTIQ+ communities living in Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham (LSL). The partnership includes Brook, as the lead partner, Stephen Lawrence Charity, NAZ and Shape History. NAZ works with women (including LBTIQ+) in the tri-borough, as well as creating connections with organisations and communities in LSL.

Highlights:

Case Study

One of the organisations attending the online training sessions was Redthread; a youth work charity based in London that supports young people aged 11-25 on their personal and social development. Having recently joined Redthread as a volunteer ‘R’ was interested in upskilling and expanding their knowledge.

“The most surprising thing for me was the impact of body image, because I work with young people I have been inspired to create affirming spaces and also to educate young people of the various self-love tools we discussed in the session”

Fast Track Cities – Faith Work

In partnership with Africa Advocacy Foundation and Jewish Aids Trust, we create a change in the way faith communities understand, respond, and promote information about HIV. We also cement the knowledge that HIV is a manageable condition which can be treated. Faith Work will provide faith leaders with an opportunity to become part of the HIV care continuum through their own programmes.

Fast Track Cities – Peer Support

In partnership with Positively UK and Plus Health, we supplement the existing Chelsea and Westminster HIV care pathway with optimised peer-to-peer mentoring interventions across 4 clinics in West and Central London - 10 Hammersmith Broadway, West Middlesex, 56 Dean Street and the Kobler Clinic. This targets those lost to care and it improves wellbeing; and supports retention in care for those most at risk.

Partnership with UCL – Covid-19 Vaccinations and Blood-Borne Virus Screening

Since February 2021, NAZ has been in partnership with clinicians at University College London providing translation and mobilisation support for Covid-19 vaccination and blood-borne virus (BBV) screening to asylum seekers living in hostels and other marginalised communities including people who experience homelessness and sex workers in London. NAZ staff have supported the engagement of over 1,000 asylum seekers covering Spanish, Portuguese, Amharic, Tigrinya, French and Arabic languages and delivering rapid HIV and STI testing. We have also been able to offer a chaperone service for the most vulnerable clients to hospital appointments.

“It has been a very long but productive day, with 80 people vaccinated today and a number of people tested for BBVs. It was the first vaccination visit to that venue and there was a lot of learning. It was a pleasure to have the NAZ peers work alongside. Atika, Jose and Jesús were absolutely invaluable today, and clearly highlight the importance of peers from minoritized groups being involved in the work. Their presence and involvement was extremely welcomed both by the team and especially the patients.” - Dr Binta Sultan (Lead clinician after the outreach sessions)

“We cannot speak highly enough of the translators! Thank you for your invaluable work, your unwavering enthusiasm and your continuous warmth and happiness… they go above and beyond every session and we all know that a day working with them is going to be full of fun, smiles and lots of jabs in arms! I could go on and on - you are all SO appreciated!” – Janine Ryan (Inclusion Health Clinical Nurse Specialist, University College Hospital)

Peer Support

NAZ has carried on running online pan-London peer support groups throughout the pandemic, including:

Sole to Soul

Sole to Soul was launched in October 2020 in partnership with Atune Holistic Health as a two-day a week reflexology service to clients living with HIV or from vulnerable groups. This in-person service took place as Covid-19 regulations allowed, offering 50 appointments to 15 service users before end March 2021.

“This is exactly what I needed, I have never had this treatment before but the therapist was so kind and professional, she knew about HIV and she chatted with me and this virus has been so bad, when I got the email I thought let me see…glad I came.” – Service user living with HIV

“I didn’t know what to expect from it but I had a wonderful experience, Helen gave me tips on how to release my anxiety. This service was really great….” Service user living with HIV

4. Clinical Services

NAZ Counselling Service (5 days a week)

Our pan-London psychotherapeutic counselling service has continued as an online service during the pandemic, providing a culturally specific mental health and wellbeing service. Despite the difficulties that the pandemic has brought and the unexpected impact on delivery of the service, we were able to move to online and telephone support in a short time frame to deliver services to those clients in need who elected to continue their counselling by phone or zoom. Safeguards have been updated to ensure the wellbeing of clients and counsellors during this transition.

NAZ sees clients of a highly complex nature with multiple presenting issues. Therapeutic presentations have included recent HIV diagnosis, anxiety, depression, bereavement, loss of familial relationships, coming out, gender identity, internalised homophobia, self-harm, suicidal ideation, childhood sexual abuse, isolation relating to seeking asylum, intimate partner violence and being a victim of homophobic hate crime.

Highlights:

“I just wanted to get in touch to say a huge thank you to you and all the team at Naz, and in particular to sing the praises of the wonderful Karl Stephenson. Coming to Naz for counselling is one of the best things I've ever done and I owe so much to Karl for being a simply wonderful counsellor - I couldn't have asked for a better form of support. During a very difficult period of my life Karl went over and above to support me and I'm proud to say I'm in a fantastic place as a result of his counselling” – Counselling client Dec 2020 upon completion of 12 weeks of counselling

HIV testing

With the pandemic, in-person HIV testing at the NAZ office has proved largely unfeasible. We have promoted self-sampling during this time. As part of our new UCL project (see above) NAZ staff have conducted HIV and STI testing alongside clinical staff, and supported the engagement of over 1,000 asylum seekers living in hostels and other marginalised communities including people who experience homelessness and sex workers.

5. Policy, Research and Influencing

Grants from the National Lottery and Gilead have enabled us to recruit a Senior Policy Officer, enabling increased policy, research and influencing work at NAZ across multiple levels:

Covid-19 and Black, Asian and Racially Minoritised Communities

NAZ has been active in keeping up pressure around the health inequalities facing Black, Asian and Racially Minoritised communities, and has led the BAME and HIV sectors in calling the NHS and Government to account for the higher levels of illness and death in these communities.

In April 2020 we wrote on behalf of 39 BAME-led HIV service providers and allies to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, the Chair of APPG HIV & Aids, the CEOs of NHS England and Public Health England, around the impact of Covid-19 on BAME communities.

We also submitted oral evidence to the APPG HIV & Aids Inquiry in June 2020 on the effects of Covid19 on Black, Asian and Racially Minoritised groups, and written evidence in partnership with BHA for Equality, Centre for All Families Positive Health and House of Rainbow.

Global HIV Collaborative

NAZ has launched the Global HIV Collaborative which represent the needs of those communities around the world who are not benefiting from the gains in HIV prevention at the same rate as others impacted by the disease. We are currently engaging with stakeholders for 1-to-1 interviews from America, Africa and Europe and UK and have interviewed key activists to amplify the needs of the communities and identify best practice that can be replicated at scale.

Future work of the GHC will include:

www.hiv-collaborative.org

6. Volunteering

NAZ’s peer-led volunteering service makes a huge contribution to our clients and communities. Although our outreach and sexual health promotion work moving online led to a reduced volunteer footprint in the 2020-21 year, our Covid-19 emergency response programme had many volunteer food packers, driver-distributors and administrators who were vital to this work with some of London’s most vulnerable communities

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The trustees, who are also the directors of The Naz Project (London) for the purpose 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 which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON)

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Naz Project (London) (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors' report included within the trustees' report.

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON)

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

As part of our planning process:

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

The Naz Project (London) is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 30 Blacks Road, London, W6 9DT.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “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 from 1 January 2019)”. The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused considerable disruption to the Charity’s operations. Despite these difficulties, the charity continues to deliver services to those clients in need who elected to continue their counselling by phone or zoom. Safeguards are in place to ensure the wellbeing of clients and counsellors. The Trustees have prepared financial and cash flow forecasts demonstrating the charity can continue as a going concern. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Incoming resources

Incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity becomes entitled to the income and the amounts can be measured reliably.

Donations are recognised on a receivable basis.

Grant and contract income is recognised upon receipt, or if earlier, at the time the charity becomes entitled to it. Where receipt is dependent upon fulfilment of performance conditions, income is deferred as appropriate.

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Resources expended

Resources expended are recognised in the period to which they relate. Resources expended include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.

Direct charitable expenditure comprises all the expenditure relating to the activities carried out to achieve the charitable objects.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. These costs have also been allocated in full to the single charitable activity.

1.6 Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill

Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

CRM system 4 years straight line

1.7 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold improvements 20 years straight line (length of lease) Computer equipment 4 years straight line Fixtures, fittings & equipment 10 years straight line

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

1.8 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

The Charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

1.9 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.10 Leases

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

THE NAZ PROJECT (LONDON) (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The trustees do not consider there to be any critical accounting estimates or judgements applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
