PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

Drop – in Service

Monday to Friday 10am to 8pm. We were working remotely since Covid-19 National Lockdown and was helping clients by online or by telephone services.

We continue providing advice, information and support on housing, benefits, debt support, education health and other forms of support including advocacy, letter writing, Interpreting, telephoning, advocacy, presentations and translating on behalf of clients. We were also making referrals for clients with complex cases to specialist advice and legal workers.

Since the Covid-19 National lockdown, we were working clockwise for emergency responses to support clients confined at home, and we distributed food parcels, some digital devices for those digitally excluded and some PPE.

Befriending Services

Every day- there was no time limit for befriending support Due to Covid 19, we were engaging in befriending support mainly in the evenings 17- 8 pm on WhatsApp Chatroom without an appointment as Coronavirus Pandemic causes a lot of stress and emotional for people who lost their family members or siblings to the virus, and many afraid to catch the virus. We were explaining to the elderly people and those who faced isolation to socialise and create friends through WhatsApp chatrooms. Our volunteers also help them with shopping and GPs appointments, etc. We were also providing Covid -19 Risk assessments and preventive information to stay at home during Lockdown, use face masks on public, keep social distances and avoid public transport or overcrowding public places, wash hands using with soap, hand gel, sensitizers, regularly as possible.

Sewing/Health sessions

We postpone the face-to-face sessions of the sewing class but 50+ women were organised a trip to Brighton seaside to relax the good atmosphere at sea as they were confined at home for the lockdown and felt social exclusion to break their isolation, and we also continue to provide the health sessions particularly Covid-19 information and its prevention to improve their health and wellbeing in this difficult time of pandemic crisis.

Supplementary School Classes

We stop the face-to-face supplementary school support due to Covid-19 National Lockdown, and some of the children were having online education support, but we also organise Trips to Chessington Adventure Centre and Flip outs for children and young people during the school holidays and some weekends.

Food and Digital Devices distribution

We have distributed Food parcels to more than one hundred disadvantaged low-income families/vulnerable people confined at home due the Covid-19 National Lockdown.

We also distributed 34 Tablets, 10 Phones and 2 Laptops for those disadvantaged families and children, and elderly people that are digitally excluded.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of DADIHIYE SOMALI DEVELOPMENT ORGANISATION For the year ended 31 March 2021

I report on the accounts of the company for the period ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 7 to 13.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purpose of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011(the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;

• to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions

• given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and

• to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no other matter except that referred to in the above paragraphs, has come to my attention:

(1)which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or

(2)to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

DADIHIYE SOMALI DEVELOPMENT ORGANISATION Notes to the Accounts For the year ended 31 March 2021

1. Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies are summarised below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year.

1.1 Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the applicable Accounting Standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” published in March 2005 and the Companies Act 1985.

The company has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No. 1 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is small company.

1.2 Incoming Resources

Income from activities, voluntary income and donations are included in incoming resources when they are receivable, except when the donors specify that they must be used in future accounting periods or donors’ conditions have not been fulfilled, then the income is deferred. The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross, with the associated costs included in fundraising costs.

1.3 Resources Expended

Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT that cannot be recovered.

Expenditure that is directly attributable to specific activities has been included in these cost categories. Where costs are attributable to more than one activity, they have been apportioned across the cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of those resources.

1.4 Going Concern Basis

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, as in the opinion of the director and trustees, there are no issues arising which would suggest any other basis as being more appropriate.

1.5 Depreciation

Depreciation is provided using the following rates and bases to reduce by annual instalments the cost, less estimated residual value, of tangible assets over the estimated useful lives:

Furniture, Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment - 20% on reducing line basis.
