THE LOUISE DA-COCODIA EDUCATION TRUST

Making education a priority – sowing seeds for success

Report of the trustees for the year ended 31st December 2021

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 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 charity’s trust deed, the Charities Act 2011 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 published (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Objectives and activities

The purposes of the charity are to support children and young people and adults particularly of African Caribbean heritage to identify gaps, access and barriers to education and to tackle a range of issues that affect their access, performance and progression into education, training and employment. To enable parents to access information and develop skills to increase their active involvement in the education of their children. To work in partnership with local colleges, universities and businesses, for the provision of mentors to help improve employment opportunities. The main activities are:

1.2 . LDSS Online Provision:

In response to COVID-19 and in line with the Government’s periods of lockdown, our online Maths and English provision started week beginning 11th January 2021.

This was made possible as we:

The Covid Community-led Organisations Recovery Scheme (CCLORS) funded our online transition. The BBC CIN (2017-2020) small grant period was extended to July 2021.

Leading up to the 2021-2022 academic year LDET rolled out an advertising campaign. This involved emailing the LDSS flyer to primary and secondary schools, and posting on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. A jingle was made aired on local Radio stations.

Following the advert and flyer campaign the number of secondary school pupils increased, with new learners starting, previous learners returning, and learners from the primary provision progressing to the secondary provision.

There was 90%+ engagement online for KS 3 & 4 pupils with a small number of KS 2 learners signed up to the online 11+ programme.

1.3 Exploring the Manchester Uprising (Mini Project):

Once lockdown restrictions became relaxed a group of 5 (KS 3 & 4) pupils and two trustees worked in partnership with the Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race and Centre Education Trust.

The Exploring the Manchester Uprising mini project used Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race Archives to explore the 1981 Manchester Uprising.

The young people who participated thoroughly enjoyed the experience as it gave them the opportunity to explore an historical event linked to their community, source information from a unique archive records and hear

firsthand accounts of the event. The young people shared their work through a short video, books and posters. They also drew up a manifesto for teaching black history.

The young people shared their thoughts about:

In their evaluation of the project pupils requested more project based learning.

1.4 Partnership with JET Black Academy:

There was and still is some resistance to on line engagement in the community with concerns that COVID-19 'lockdown' period had separated them from their peers and negatively impacted their children's mental health. Once ' lockdown' restrictions were lifted allowing outdoor activities parents opted for outdoor community activities for their Key stage 2 children.

In response to the above as well the feedback from the questionnaire sent to parents (spring term) we devised a face to face Black History Month programme. This was offered within the JET Black Academy activity programme and was facilitated by two trustees .

This was held during October half-term at the Moss Side leisure centre. We had access to the Moss Side Library and the leisure centres conference space.

Covid-19 meant that opportunities for self expression, having a voice and social interaction were limited.

The programme aims to :

It was also an opportunity to:

explore difference

Activities were carried out in groups of 10. The age range in each group was 4-12 years. This was offered within the JET Black Academy activity programme and was facilitated by two trustees .

During the Christmas break Anansi Storytelling sessions were facilitated by two trustees as part of the JET Black Academy activity programme this was held at the Moss Side leisure centre where we had access to the Moss Side Library and the leisure centres conference space.

1.5 Global Majority Fund (Managed by CAHN (Caribbean and African Health Network)

The pandemic has greatly impacted our activities in that we had to abandon face-to-face interactions and moved the supplementary school activities online. We have however, noted that this has weakened or broken the connections with some of our communities. Many people, under lockdown, may have become increasingly more isolated and disengaged from our services.

Building on the work of the ACE project, in reducing isolation amongst senior members in our community, this Global Majority Fund funded project will focus on cultural foods exploring the properties that can benefit or hinder health and well being.

The children and young people will learn about the foods our seniors ate before and after arriving in the UK during the Windrush Era. The activities will be intergenerational and will focus on how food was prepared and cooked, comparing it with their 21st century diets.

2.1 Active Community Elders (ACE) Intergenerational

Project:

The LDET and WISSC Black History Month event took place against a background of lifted restrictions but continuing COVID-19 infection. Funding for the event was secured from the National Lottery Local Connections Fund Round 2. Asda's Community Engagement Team supplied fresh fruit and water.

The event was a free afternoon of drama, dance and poetry and took place at the West Indian Sports and Social Club Moss Side. It brought together six local support and advice agencies and Caribbean caterers.

The support and advice agencies provided informant on:

COVID-19 infection protocol meant exercise and movement programmes were delivered via Zoom. As many of our elders were unable to access the online format the event included introductions to:

The elders were transported to and from the event.

2. 2 Women of the Soil Project

The focus of this project is on the legacy of Louise Da-Cocodia and the 7 inter-related themes that encompass her community development work in areas of health, empowerment of women and families, economics, employment, training, education, political organization, faith, and culture.

The one: one interviews with around 25 women are currently being converted into teaching and learning resources for the OU Open Learn Women and migration course.

Converting the individual interviews into a teaching/learning format is a long process. Three interviews have now been accepted with Julie Asumu AKA 'auntie Julie' being the most recent.

2 .3 International Women's Week 2021 'Choose to

Challenge'Mama Elouise Edwards MBE, MA (honorary) - 1932 2021

This Louise Da-Cocodia Education Trust Zoom event celebrated the life of our beloved community activist Mama Elouise Edwards. The 2021 IWW theme 'Choose to Challenge' was an apt description of her.

A neighbourhood social worker and community development officer, Mama Edwards was known for her kindness and her clear insight bringing her understanding of how official systems worked, as well as her knowledge and empathy with local people’s struggles and triumphs to

every situation. Through her inspiration and guidance, she empowered individuals and groups, continuing in this role until her retirement in 1998.

An intergenerational event with thirty-one participations and 80 global attendees it

honoured her achievements and provided the opportunity for members of the community to come together despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

3.1 LDET enterprise -Cultural Market:

The Chair and deputy chair attended Covid-19 Community Led Organisation Recovery Scheme (CCLORS) online event in March 2021.

This was facilitated by Gina Osbourne from Ubele Initiative (London). The focus of this 4hr event was the LDET Cultural Market. Gina outlined some of the difficulties the cultural market format across the UK had experienced since our previous event in 2019.

Given Covid-19 restrictions re-engaging with enterprise began with two online events and an assessment of interest questionnaire.

The online speakers were:

The youngest speaker was 9yrs old.

Financial review

In addition to carrying over the final tranche funding from BBC CIN towards the Saturday Supplementary School running cost. We also received £2,000 from Arawak Walton Housing, £600 from The Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race and Centre Education Trust, £920

(VEF?) grant and a further grant of £2,500 from the National Lottery Community Fund.

Investment powers and policy

7

THE LOUISE DA-COCODIA EDUCATION TRUST

Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year, most of the charity's funds are to be spent in the short term so there are few funds for any longer term investment.

Reserves policy and going concern

The balance held in unrestricted reserves at 31[st] December 2020 was - £5072 of which -£6285 are free reserves, after allowing for funds tied up in tangible fixed assets.

The trustees aim to maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at a level which equates to approximately 5 months of unrestricted charitable expenditure. The trustees consider that this level will provide sufficient funds to respond to applications for grants and ensure that support and governance costs are covered.

The main source of income is grant funding, donations and member's income. The directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis and consequently the accounts do not include any adjustments that would be necessary if the funding should cease.

Risk management

The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.

Plans for Future Periods

Re:Purpose www.repurpose.org.uk

Currently in Phase 3 Post Covid-19 /Sustainability we completed the 'Re:Purpose' application form requesting volunteer support to secure funding which will:

To achieve this we identified the following, we require a Senior/Board Level volunteer with:

strong leadership skills and the ability to facilitate the growth and cohesiveness of a board of trustees

sound knowledge and understanding of the legal requirements of being a trustee and can facilitate/organise good governance training

THE LOUISE DA-COCODIA EDUCATION TRUST

sound people management skills who can communicate the need for trustees to engage with the salient points and recommendations in our:

sound business management skills and the ability to identify the most viable skill set requirements for applicants to key project management and administrative roles

Recruitment and retention of staff as well as retention of trustees has been an issue for a significant period. Because of this we require a Senior/Board level volunteer who can:

Responding to our application Re:Purpose felt we deserved two volunteers to support our move forward. Yusuf Firat was identified as suitable fit.

Structure, governance and management

The Charity is a registered charity and is constituted under a trust deed dated October 2008.

Appointment of trustees

New trustees are appointed by existing trustees and serve for 4 years after which they may put themselves forward for re-appointment. The Trust Deed provides for a minimum of 7 trustees, to a maximum of 11 trustees, with no more than 4 trustees due for re-appointment in any one year.

At the quarterly trustee meetings, the trustees agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Charity, including investment, reserves and risk management policies and performance. The day to day administration of the Charity is delegated to subgroup of Chair, Treasurer and Secretary.

At the LDET 2021 AGM we appointed four additional trustees.

Trustee induction and training

9

THE LOUISE DA-COCODIA EDUCATION TRUST

Most trustees are already familiar with the work of the charity as a result of either their work within a member organisation or as a volunteer. Training and induction of new trustees took place and focused on the roles and responsibilities of trustees as set out by the Charity Commission.

Due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions all Trust meeting were facilitated via Zoom or Teams.

The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

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

Select suitable accounting principles and then apply them consistently;
