The trustees are pleased to present their annual directors' report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 March 2023 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the CompaniesAct 2006, the Memorandumand Articles of Association, 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives, aims and public benefit The Multi-Faith Centre (MFC) was founded in 2001 to build respect between people across different faiths and cultures. Since we opened, we have created a strong network of contacts in faith communities and with key public and voluntary organisations and developed a range of training and community projects with these partners.
More recently, because of the Covid-emergency, the Centre recognised that it could play a vital role as a connecting bridge between faith communities and civic society. It is an opportunity for the Centre to use its existing network and experience to forge a slronger strategic purpose and have a wider positive impact on local communities.
MFC’s new, refreshed vision is a society where the diversity, expertise and richness of faith communities actively contributes to the building of safe, healthy, and cohesive communities throughout Derbyshire.
The MFC encourages and facilitates dialogue, co-operation, mutual respect and understanding between people from different faith communities and civil society, who by coming together aim to improve the wellbeing of vulnerable people living in Derbyshire. To achieve this, we focus on four key objectives:
-
CREATEAN INFRASTRUCTURE Producing a platform for the faith sector to come together to act strategically and maximise their impact. 2. FACILITATECOMMUNICATION Creating safe spaces for faith groups to hold conversations on social and communityissues common to everyone.
-
NURTURE COLLABORATION - Encouraging faith groups to join and then create partnerships with local authorities and key agencies.
4, PROMOTE CELEBRATION- Shining a light on good news stories around the positive contribution faith communities make to our society.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
2022/23 Significant activities
Ukraine MFCsupported the University of Derby's Executive Board with developing its corporate response and messaging regarding the conflict. We liaised with the Ukrainian community and attended the Emergency Partnership meetings with representatives from intemational aid agencies and the local authorities and organisations to ensure consistent communication across the University, Students Union, and Chaplaincy and that offer of help were an appropriate response to clear need identified, and an effective logistics chain in place to the border with, or into Ukraine.
Ukraine Interfaith Vigil
In fine with our strategic objective of amplifying the role of faith in Civic Society, MFC supported the city's faith communities with organisation, marketing, and facilitation support to organise a prayer vigil at Derby Cathedral. We are grateful to the many faith partners who responded to our call to convene a task and finish group and to organise something poignant at such short notice.
Christian, Sikh, Muslim, Hindu, Quakers and the Ukrainian Catholic Church and Association of Ukrainians of GB, Derby Branch were represented. This event was an excellent example of interfaith collaboration that we hope to build on as we develop the city's faith infrastructure and networks.
Derby Faith Alliance We are grateful to Derby City Council for their financial support in 2022/23 to pay for MFC[facilitation][and][support][role][in][developing][the] Faith Alliance and faith infrastructure. During this period MFCsupported the establishment of a Faith Steering Group (which now includes representatives from the city's Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Quakers, Jewish, Community Action, Derby City Council, and Derby Homes). MFCenabled the Faith Steering Group to meet 7 times during the year and submitted 5 funding bids to support its work. We provided vital administrative, project managementand delivery, fundraising and marketing support, MFCalso took the lead role in encouraging interfaith partnership working, particularly events and prayer vigils that encouraged unity and collaboration around key issues such as the Ukraine conflict and tensions between the city's Muslim and Hindu communities.
MFC also secured additional financial support from Derby Homes and the Derbyshire Office of the Police & Crime Commissioner to support the important community development and networking aspects of this work.
This additional support enabled a step change in developing a faith sector infrastructure plan whilst developing a strengths-based approach and improving faith networks and representation from underrepresented and unengaged communities. We have used this period to understand the longer-term infrastructure and resource requirements and develop longer-term infrastructure support plan for the faith sector.
As part of this work over the last twelve months, MFC has delivered:
"A Theory of Change for the faith alliance,
" A Meeting with Derby City Council senior leadership was hosted to establish shared vision of faith infrastructure for the city.
" A Milestone Plan for the implantation of the faith alliance. " Faith Community Development Workers recruited, inducted and line managed to implement relationship building and consultation activities.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
" Derby City Strategic Action Group: Rising Cost of Living
Cost of Living Crisis In May, as part of our work to support improved partnership working across faith communities and with civil society, we brought together voices from across the city's diverse faith communities to: " Highlight the impact that the cost-of-living crisis is having on local communities. " Communicate what support is available for those in need. " Discuss what faith communities can do to alleviate the impact and increase community resilience. " Plan for what faith communities can do in partnership immediately and in the coming months to support vulnerable people. We organised two sessions and heard that faith communities are on the front line, playing a vital role to those in need. Across the two events, 50 people participated. MFC produced a summary report of those discussions which has informed the work of the Derby City Council Strategic Action Group which formed to create a city-wide response and tangible actions that positively affect our residents and increase community resilience, Equalities, Diversity & Inclusion Network Conference MFCwas invited to be part of the University's EDINetwork and gave a keynote presentation which made the case for faith in Inclusion, Equity, Belonging and Allyship agendas. Faith Friendly Workplaces MFC, University of Derby and a network of 40 businesses (including Rolls-Royce pic, Thames Water, Ovo Energy) has formed a working group to support a Faith Friendly Workplaces initiative. The project focuses on the belief that faith is crucial part of healthy and happy workforces and that it can improve and enhances organizational performance and productivity. It is recognised that staff faith networks create value, a sense of belongingin the workplace and contribute to emotional and spiritual well-being. There is relevance and a business need for some form of ‘faith kitemark’.Thiswould enable organizations to articulate their commitment and engagement with faith as well as a continuous improvement framework for dealing with people and matters of faith in the workplace. External validation of faith friendly workplaces would strengthen the evidence base that faith makes good business sense. As part of this work, MFC has: 1. Created a partnership with business partners and the University of Derby's Knowledge Transfer Partnership. 2. Secured DRIVEN funding for an intern and academic support for the first stage of the project: a comprehensive literature review. 3. Completed the literature review to inform future stages of the project.
We are currently recruiting an intern for the second phase of the project.
Social Prescribing for All Project (SP4ALL) Given the much worse life expectancy and overall health reported in people from ethnic minority groups, the MultiFaith Centre partnered with the University of Derby, Talk for Health, and Community Action Derby to develop strategies to mitigate the health inequalities experienced by people from ethnic minority groups.
SP4ALL project created practitioner training for people from ethnic minority groups and cultural competence training for practitioners to learn together by building on existing Social Prescribing networks and therapeutic training with our partners.
We piloted a training model to support people from ethnic minority groups as champions of their own cultural knowledge and co-facilitators alongside practitioners with therapeutic training.
The findings informed research in the field of social prescribing nationally and internationally where the evidence base is rather limited. Particularly academics working with the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) sector will have better understanding of inclusivity in the VCFSE sector and its vital contributions to implementing Social Prescribing programmes across the UK.
Training
MFC delivered the following courses:
- Overcoming Islamophobia: training to provide greater awareness of Muslims and Islam, increased understanding of the issues related to Islamophobia and anti-Muslim discrimination.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The charity constantly monitors its core activity costs against available core funding incomes throughout the year through budgets and forecasts. The unrestricted fund deficit currently stands at £151,477 (31/03/2023). The board will budget to reduce this amount steadily in future years to ensure greater financial stability. The MFChas negotiated a payment schedule with the University against the loan on its balance sheet and continues to put £12,450 a year aside for the University loan.

FUTURE PLANS
MFC believes there is a need for infrastructure to facilitate and coordinate the faith alliance, rather than being involved in direct service delivery, We will continue to help articulate the strategic role for infrastructure as a facilitator, coordinator, and supporter of the faith alliance. MEFC's work in 2022/23 will focus providing facilitation support to the city's Faith Steering Group and our work will include:
1) Defining the role of infrastructure clearly and avoid the perception of creating a cumbersome and resource-heavy entity. Wewant to articulate an infrastructure modelthat is nimbleand lighi-touch while still being strategic and insightful. We need to counter past criticisms of infrastructure being too resource-intensive and putting power in the wrong hands. 2) Demonstrating the benefits of the alliance approach which can avoid competition, duplication, and piecemeal efforts by enabling strategic partnerships and empowering alliances to have a collective voice. 3) Creating a clear model that defines the role of infrastructure and encourages collaboration and coordinated efforts among stakeholders. 4) Establishing a framework that supports the alliance approach, identifies gaps in the current alliance structure, ensures effective resource allocation, and enables strategic partnerships for the benefit of the community. 5) Making the strategic case that infrastructure can play a crucial role as a facilitator, coordinator, and advocate. 6) Clarifying partner and stakeholder understanding and definition of the concept of Alliances and develop a shared language and understanding when using the term “alliance” to avoid confusion and misinterpretation. 7) Providing an understanding the strategic environment, engaging with stakeholders and commissioners, and articulating a model for funding the alliances. 8) Explore with stakeholders, funders and commissioners’ potential avenues of financial support and their role in supporting alliance infrastructure. 9) Formally launching the faith alliance with the support of faith communities, civil society stakeholders and public sector commissioners.
