Our main objective has been to address the needs of our communities as they confront these challenges, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to advancing them and assisting individuals who aspire to progress, despite the obstacles. To accomplish this goal, we have implemented a variety of activities and services aimed at overcoming barriers and supporting our beneficiaries. Our efforts in working with young people and antipoverty initiatives have increased this year, to better serve our communities. Our activity areas include;
1) Advice service: Our advice, assistance with claims for council tax, accommodation, consumer issues, immigration, general advice and cost of living grants.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Achievements and performance
The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year
The cost of living crisis that followed the pandemic had a significant impact on our communities. As a result of statutory services moving to remote delivery there were increased demand for our services. More than 1,300 people accessed our services during the fiscal year.
Advice and support work carried out essential cost of living work by supporting beneficiaries with their financial difficulties. 669 people have benefited from this areas of work, and 978 case matters raised. Our welfare benefits and anti-poverty activity have generated a net income of £402,500 for households. Also advised on budgeting, provided access to grant schemes, foodbank and accommodation.
Foundation learning programme includes capacity building training and personal development was very successful as beneficiaries aspired to improve themselves through participation and learning and development. We have delivered 625 units of courses (individuals completed a training programme) and depending on the course each training course was between 8 to 96 hours guided learning. Accredited courses included ESOL L1&2, Food and Hygiene L2 and First Aid. Additionally, we have delivered 57 units of capacity/personal development training.
This year, we provided employment support services to 343 beneficiaries. As a result of our efforts, 32 participants were able to secure jobs, while 14 others found voluntary work. Additionally, we conducted 46 work club sessions, offered one-on-one support, and helped beneficiaries develop their digital skills and prepare for interviews. We also assisted 16 people in changing careers and becoming self-employed.
Health and wellbeing activities have played a crucial role in helping individuals in our community recover from the lasting physical and mental effects of the pandemic. A total of 297 people have benefited from this service, with most of them participating in more than one activity. Across various activities, we have recorded 506 beneficiaries.
98 young people benefited from our youth development programme of activities. Young people attended our youth club activities, leadership programme, outdoor and indoor capacity and development sessions and one-on-one mentoring.
The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity
Our program has achieved several sustained differences in the community. We brought together isolated people, new settlers in the community and settled residents to build social capital, integrate and develop a stronger community. Our advice service supported beneficiaries to overcome financial difficulties or accommodation worries by increasing their household income through accessing welfare benefits, cost of living grants, or other award schemes. We also provided beneficiaries with access to emergency food provisions and helped them build their money management skills. We improved beneficiaries' soft skills and confidence through non-accredited and accredited courses, improving their literacy, numeracy, and digital skills. Many beneficiaries progressed to further training or gained valuable employability skills by volunteering. Beneficiaries who secured jobs will have financial independence as they move away from depending on welfare benefits. Employment leads to wide benefits to the local community, economy, and individual households, improving personal confidence and promoting better health or management of health, leading to a healthier and more positive lifestyle. Our youth development program is almost a standalone development program for young people. It provides them with support to overcome physical, mental, and educational challenges, broadens their experiences, and provides them with invaluable skills for the future.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Degree to which the achievements and performance during the year have benefited wider society
Our communities were one of the worst affected by the pandemic both in health and financially. The post pandemic cost of living crises brought about new and worrying challenges as families fell further short of household finances.
Our services provided much needed reassurance and support as we worked with individuals and families to secure welfare benefits, increased their budgeting skills, by lowering their outgoings, supporting beneficiaries to improve on health matters and support to become independent or positively progress forward. Our labour market support assisted individuals to prepare for the labour market or enter into employment. Our young people engaged in activities that supported them to become better citizens, gain understanding of societal issues and education.
Our services with the support from funders had to refocus and adjust and staff had to gain new skills to meeting arising demand in this challenging time and form new partnerships.
We made significant impact, serving one of the highest number of beneficiaries and of diverse backgrounds and abilities. Our work has stabilised the community by improving their household income, improved their skills and capacity to lead independent lives, improved on both physical and mental health enabling beneficiaries to lead a healthier and positive life or better manage their conditions. Our inclusive work brought people together developing their social capital and moving forward in unity and aspiring to better their lives.
Financial review
Overall, Community Connect Foundation has raised funds totalling £238,343 with the expenditure for the year totalling £225,841 leaving the organisation with a surplus of £12,502. This leaves £531,015 in our funds to be carried forward at 31 March 2023.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('the free reserves') held by the charity should be approximately six months of the resources expended.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss.
