ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Wilh the ￿valUable support of fL￿derS and parlners and united *ryth migrants. refugees. and a growing number of
supporters. Praxis met its organisabonal goals this year against what has become a pattem of persistent and
escalating hoslilty and d1￿mInatiOn wilhin Ihe immigrat•)n system in the UK.
Thi8 financial year contsnued the trend of fast paced. financial and soU(Fe￿n0m1c change and shocks. As with the
Covid pandemic, the challenges of the war in Ukraine. the energy crisis and rapidly accelerating inftation which led
to a Cost-ofliving emergency disproportionalety affected wnmunitie$ and individuals who have migrated lo Ihe
UK. We continued to thallenge the exdusion from mainstream supwt that many migrants and refugees
experience,. being denied secure S￿￿J5, and al the mercy of a cornplex and dysfrjnclional. administrative and
legislative system.
We cenlrfjd the ￿M¢e$ of people who have lived experience of the IMM￿jralI0n system Ihroughout our work. We
continued to Pursue our values and the prnrities set out in our Anli-racist fr￿rk to mitigate the discrimination
inherent in our immigration system and wder soc4ety.
This year has been another year marked by Sh￿ and significaTrt political and economic changes. To respond lo
changiThJ orcumstances and needs wa have drawn on the insights from our direct services lo infomi how we
respond. That meant that we continued to promote and provide access to legal advice, we supported cross sector
responses lo migrant homelessne55, and we centred INed experience in our advocacy and campaigning work. The
exlemally driven ob5ts¢les have been Challenging for us as an organisation: but for the thousands stuck in a
quagmire of exclusion and hardship generated by the syslemiclailure of the immigration system il can ￿$trict every
asped of their lives. The challenge of finding pathways out of extreme financial hardship and insecurity places a
heavy loll on the individuals and families we support. thre than 50% of the people we supported staled that Ihey
were worried about feeding their chiklren in a $urv9y undertaken during ts year. Wo redoubled efforts lo find
Workable solLrtions to prevent uisis for indiwduals and farnilw4s and we increased our efforts to inlluence systemi

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF PRAXIS COMMUNITY PROJEcrs
For the year ended 31 March 2023
We inspected the minules of me8liTrJs oftho$8 dwrgod with govoman¢e.
We revi6wed the financial slatement disdosures and tested these to supportin9 d¢xumentstlon
lo assess compliance applicable la￿ and regukqtions.
In addressing the risk of fraud through M￿agement override of contro15. we tested the
appropriateness of joumal enliies and other adjustments. assessed whether the judgements
made in making accounting estimates are irKlicative of a potential bias arKI tested significant
transactions that are unusual or those outside the nonnal Course of business.
8ecause ol the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities.
including those leading lo a material misstatement in the ffinanual statements or non-compliance with
regulation. The risk 15 also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. as
fraud involves intentional ￿nCealment. torgery. collusion. omissK>n or rThsrepresenlatiOn.
