Individual Grants Partnership — Richard Cloudesley Foundation

DAIl continues to play a key role in delivering the Foundation’s Individual Grants Programme, supporting Islington residents experiencing financial hardship.

This partnership remains an essential component of our work, providing a vital safety net for D/deaf & disabled residents.

.

Hate Crime

DAI remains a recognised third-party reporting centre for disability-related hate crime. We continue to support disabled residents to report incidents in a safe, accessible and supportive environment, providing ongoing guidance and casework where needed. Our work focuses on raising awareness, reducing under reporting and promoting better responses to disability hate crime.

Strengthened Partnership with Disability Action Haringey

This year has seen a significant strengthening of our partnership with Disability Action Haringey (DAH).

The partnership has evolved into a collaborative relationship across several key areas, including:

,

This closer relationship has amplified the voice of D/deaf & disabled residents in both Islington and Haringey and fostered greater peer support between the two DDPOs.

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

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. ,

1.4 Income All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

1.5 Expenditure Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
