## Key achievements in 2021 **After another successful crowd funding campaign, UPG raised a massive £78,846 to install 94 solar panels on the roof of the Edward Woods Community Centre. The panels are already generating green power and we anticipate they will save the centre over £7000 each year, and that money can be spent on much needed community projects. This follows on from an equally successful campaign in 2020 to raise funds for Solar Panels at the Masbro Centre.** In addition to the generous contributions from London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham, Mayor of London and Garfield Weston Foundation we received another 119 donations from local businesses and individuals. A great community effort by so many people in extremely difficult times. **THIS PROJECT IS PART OF UPG’S AMBITION TO BE CARBON NEUTRAL BY 2030** ## UPG IN QUEEN'S HONOURS LIST We are delighted to announce Jacquie Boyce and Caesar President from the Edward Woods Community Centre were awarded the British Empire Medal for services to their local community during the Covid 19 pandemic. A well-deserved award for their outstanding work on the Edward Woods estate and beyond. ## Key achievements in 2021 ## ADDITIONAL FUNDING SECURES JUNIOR PROGRAMME **At the start of the year the Masbro Youth Club successfully secured additional funding from Addison Youth to start delivering a junior programme to young people between 8-12 years of age.** As of April 2021, the club has been running three junior sessions a week, in addition to our senior club for young people 11-19 years of age. Activities for our junior members include arts & crafts sessions, workshops and a variety of sports and physical activities. As part of the sessions, we have been providing a free, healthy, nutritious hot meal to every young person who attends. The junior club engages with over 125 members and is working to develop a Youth Committee to ensure the voices of our younger members is heard. ## A SUMMER LIKE NO OTHER **Masbro Youth Club delivered a 6-week programme over the summer holiday period for junior and senior members between 8-19 years of age.** A staggering 143 members took part, each member received a healthy, nutritious hot meal and snack each day. Young people took part in a range of on and off site Covid-19 secure activities such as the Fit N Fed programme, an outdoor gardening project, go karting, rock climbing, Escape rooms, Thames boat experience and a day trip to Southend on Sea. The finale to the programme was a 5-day leadership residential experience to Avon Tyrrell Outdoor Activity Centre for 18 members. Young people had the opportunity to take part in a wide range of outdoor activities and had a chance to develop and learn new skills. The team worked tirelessly to give young people a positive and memorable summer. ## Key achievements in 2021 ## **BUILDING POSITIVE FUTURES** **Our Adult Learning programme has built on past successes, through lockdown our students found our online sessions with tutors invaluable. In addition to improving their English language skills, the students developed a group support network to share their anxieties and concerns. Many of our students are also parents and the classes came at time that they could escape the pressures of busy family life.** Once restrictions eased face to face learning resumed and students were able to undertake exams. We concluded the year with 15 students achieving passes in L1 and L2 Functional Skills, Maths and English and the students even found time to make two enjoyable group visits to Kensington Palace. We are committed to helping people make a positive change and have successfully secured new funding via the Adult Education Budget and City Bridge Trust for the next two years. Our Employment Support services have also received a boost by securing 3-years funding from Trust for London to help Londoners into ‘Better Work’. ## **OUTSTANDING PLACEMENT PROVIDER EXPERIENCE AWARD** **Urban Partnership Group won the ‘Outstanding Placement Provider Experience Award’ for 2021. Aminate Koroma who worked with Parkview Community and Maternity Champions during the pandemic submitted a glowing statement in support of the nomination.** **‘** During my time volunteering I have had the opportunity to witness the amazing work the volunteers are doing first-hand catering to the needs of hundreds of individuals and families. The foodbank is fast paced ever-changing and far from monotonous, the volunteers do this task whilst remaining positive, and create a loving environment.

## Key achievements in 2021 ## **NEW YOUNG PARENTS PLAY & LEARN GROUP AT MASBRO BROOK GREEN CENTRE** **A successful grant application to Penny Appeal has allowed UPG to introduce a new Young Parents Play and Learn group targeted at parents under 25 years old at Masbro Brook Green Centre.** The group aims to support young parents to develop their parenting skills, deliver outreach support for any issues they may be facing and provide play opportunities in Brook Green’s wonderful woodland garden for their children to learn, grow and develop. The group also allows young parents to meet other parents their own age in similar situations, experiencing the same highlights and difficulties of parenthood. ## **MASBRO BROOK GREEN WOODLAND GARDEN –** _**helping children to achieve**_ **Masbro Children’s Centre were delighted to support Hammersmith and Fulham council’s training programme on their Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Outdoor Learning Project. Vallon, Children’s Centre Manager and Kayleigh, Masbro Brook Green’s Nursery Manager created a video presentation of the wonderful Woodland Garden at Brook Green Family Centre. The video highlights the benefits of outdoor learning and how the different areas of the garden support the areas of the EYFS, which encourages children’s learning and development.** They provided tips on using different outdoor spaces, and the role of outdoor spaces in engaging families. By sharing practice of what we do at Masbro in our Woodland Garden we hope to inspire other settings in the borough to get creative with their outdoor spaces and Early Years offer to give children in our Borough the best possible start in life. ## Building resilience in our community FOOD DISTRIBUTION – A PATHWAY OUT OF POVERTY **We continue to harness resources from food distribution suppliers such as City Harvest, FareShare, The Felix Project, UK Harvest, with continuing donations from Central Gurdwara Temple, Waitrose, Marks and Spencer, Penny Appeal, Smile Brigade, Nourish, Nubian Life, Hummingbird, Wholefoods and more.** We provide over **300 food packages** a week from Edward Woods and White City Community Centres. Since March 2020 we have provided over **33,000 households with food** , at an estimated value of **£1.5 million** . Our aim is to **build resilience** within communities, not only are we helping feed low income households, families and isolated elderly people, we are reducing food waste, promoting healthy eating and signposting individuals on to other support services. ## Building resilience in our community ## **NEW PARENTING PROGRAMMES FOR 2022** **Parenting through a pandemic has been no easy task, the pandemic has highlighted a need for more bespoke parenting support. In 2022, Confident Parent Happy Child will offer two new programmes, STOP programme and Freedom programme.** **STOP PROGRAMME –** gives parents a greater understanding of the physical, emotional and brain development of their growing teenager. **FREEDOM PROGRAMME –** gives survivors of domestic abuse greater confidence, knowledge and understanding to lead a safer happier life. ## **HELPING ELDERS COME TOGETHER** **The Masbro Elders Project has continued to build resilience. We have redoubled our efforts and have worked closely with Imperial College volunteers to encourage people to engage with tech to get them connected to our online programme.** Through lockdown we continued to stay connected to those who could not get online and supported those with mobility problems with food parcel deliveries. In May, we reinstated meetings in safe outdoor venues and visited Kensington Palace, the Tower of London, Kew Gardens, the Houses of Parliament, Hampton Court and Bournemouth. ## **COMMUNITY AND MATERNITY CHAMPIONS** **Tackling ongoing health inequalities is at the heart of the Community and Maternity Champions delivery.** The three projects hosted by UPG attract 200 regular participants every week through a hybrid programme of online and face-to-face activities and events to support community wellness. These have varied from information sessions about Covid vaccinations to workshops on childhood illnesses, baby massage and a wealth of exercise classes. We strive to facilitate adequate support, resources, and the social connections that build community resilience. ## UPG’s Green Commitment – what we have done... ## and what we have to do... ## **The Urban Partnership Group started its journey to become a greener organisation in 2019 with an Eco-Audit.** On the strength of that report we went on to install Solar Panels at two of our community centres in 2020 and 2021, however we have so much more to do. The COVID pandemic had initially stalled plans but now we intend to redouble our efforts to support the LBHF Council commitment of being carbon neutral by 2030. Looking forward to 2022 we commit to ensure the following recommendations from the Eco Audit are implemented: - [Development of ] **[formal ][green purchasing policies]**[, implemented ] across the organisation - [Ensure staff buy-in to the UPG ] **[environmental policies]**[ and regular ] monitoring of implementation in day-to-day activities - [Identify an] **[ ‘][Eco-Champion][’ ]**[from the current team to be the UPG ] ambassador for green practice, explore new opportunities and build local strategic partnerships - [Review our ] **[banking and pension][arrangements]**[to ensure our ] money is being ethically invested - [Replace all existing lighting with] **[LED alternatives]** - [Purchase ‘batteries’ to ensure best use of our ][solar energy][ by storing ] excess energy - [Install ] **[EV charging points]**[ at the Edward Woods and the Masbro ] Community Centres - [Deliver a series of ] **[eco-workshops]**[for low-income households.] However our most ambitious 5-year plan is to ensure the centres UPG own are properly insulated and glazed. While ambitious, this will mean embarking on a £750,000 project, it will preserve these precious community assets for generations to come. ## Ambitions for 2022 and beyond... **The end of the year gives the opportunity to not only reflect on past achievements but also look ahead to the next year. Urban Partnership Group continues to be ambitious not only for itself but also for the community it serves. Four key goals are:** **FAMILY HUBS –** establishing family hubs across our centres will put children and young people first. Our hubs would provide a central access point for integrated services for families. This would enable families to make the most of all that UPG and its strategic partners have to offer. **GREENER SERVICE INFRASTRUCTURE –** ensuring we are matching the Councils ambition to be Carbon Neutral by 2030. This will mean we continue to monitor and adapt services and premises so we can do things better and reduce our impact on the environment and its precious resources. We will also support the community to make the changes necessary to play their part too. **PATHWAYS OUT OF FOOD POVERTY –** since 2020 UPG have been offering an emergency food distribution service. We are developing a community programme by which we can actively link current users into other services that will help to elevate them out of food poverty. **HOLISTIC SOLUTIONS FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF SERVICES AFTER COVID –** Whether it be through technology changes and patterns of working, opening up new avenues of communication and service delivery, UPG is showing flexibility and creativity in providing inclusive services to all. ## Volunteering at UPG... ## ...YOU can make a difference ## **Volunteering is at the heart of the Urban Partnership Group, the contribution our volunteers make to the lives of individuals and the local community is vital.** We provide volunteers with opportunities to develop skills, knowledge, and experience. Volunteers receive ongoing support and training to help them in their own personal and professional development. Our wide range of volunteering opportunities ensures there is something for everyone. Volunteering opportunities exist within the Children’s Centre, the Nursery, Masbro Youth Club, Community Champions projects, Confident Parent Happy Child Parenting Service, Elders Service, food distribution, reception, and administrative support teams. **Contact the team at 020 7605 0800 or info@upg.org.uk to find out more** ## Finance | UPG Trustees **----- Start of picture text -----**

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with JSAS (UK) will always detect a fflaterial mlsstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate. they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic deasions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complTrance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting rregularitie5, including fraud is detailed below: Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgrnent and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, foryeryi intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to deslgn audit pmcedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control.

Grants and other Income are accounted for on a receivable basis. Income Streams will be identified as either Restricted or Unrestricted and reported in the Financial Statements appropnately. Restricted Funds are monies raised for and their use restricted to a specific purpose or Grants subjected to donor-imposed conditions.

Following on from the major refurbishing and upgrading done during Lockdown. and in the light of guidance from the Au¢Jit Regulators, a fvndamental review has been carried out on the Depreciation policies of the Charity, bearing in mind the special uses to which the buildings are put, their age and condition. The Freeholds of the Masbro Centre and the Edward Woods Communlty Centre were tranSfer￿d to the Charity in 2017, with Restricted Covenants preseNing their use at the lime. for the benefit of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. Due to these Restrirtions, the value of these sites. though of significant value on the open market. has been brought into the Accounts at £1. Due to the age and usage of the buildings. it is difficult to assign any material value to them, as on the open market it is believed the most likely option would be for the sltes to be cleared and redeveloped into housing. Accordinglyi no further Depreciation will be charged in the Financial Statements as regards buildings and refurbishment costs. Further extensive ￿furbIshrnent is envisioned, which will be charged to the Statement of Financial Artivities as incurred. or charged agalnst Deslgnated Funds, which have been set aside from the General Funds of the Charity for this purpose. As regards Fixtures Fittings and Equipment. Depreciation has been charged based on the estimated useful life, on a StraIght-￿￿e basis for the year. The rate5 used vary between 3 to 7 years estirnated life. Assets acquired specifically for short life projects are depreciated over the time span of the project. An additional Designation of Funds is envisaged, when finances pemiit, for major works on the roof, with estimates in the current post pandemic circumstances varying from £600,000 to £900,000. 14 URBAN PARTNERSHIP GROUP (A Company limited by Guarantee) Chartty Number 3446256 Company Number 1092258 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL sfATEMENTS R THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2021 (continued) IE eased Assets Rentals applicable to operating Leases, where substantially all of the benefit5 and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the Statements of Financial Activities on straight-line basis over the term of the lease. staff who previously worked for the Council continue to subscribe to the Local Government pension scheme (a defined benefit pension scheme) operated by Hammersmith & Fulham Council.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with JSAS (UK) will always detect a fflaterial mlsstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate. they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic deasions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Following on from the major refurbishing and upgrading done during Lockdown. and in the light of guidance from the Au¢Jit Regulators, a fvndamental review has been carried out on the Depreciation policies of the Charity, bearing in mind the special uses to which the buildings are put, their age and condition. The Freeholds of the Masbro Centre and the Edward Woods Communlty Centre were tranSfer￿d to the Charity in 2017, with Restricted Covenants preseNing their use at the lime. for the benefit of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. Due to these Restrirtions, the value of these sites. though of significant value on the open market. has been brought into the Accounts at £1. Due to the age and usage of the buildings. it is difficult to assign any material value to them, as on the open market it is believed the most likely option would be for the sltes to be cleared and redeveloped into housing. Accordinglyi no further Depreciation will be charged in the Financial Statements as regards buildings and refurbishment costs. Further extensive ￿furbIshrnent is envisioned, which will be charged to the Statement of Financial Artivities as incurred. or charged agalnst Deslgnated Funds, which have been set aside from the General Funds of the Charity for this purpose. As regards Fixtures Fittings and Equipment. Depreciation has been charged based on the estimated useful life, on a StraIght-￿￿e basis for the year. The rate5 used vary between 3 to 7 years estirnated life. Assets acquired specifically for short life projects are depreciated over the time span of the project. An additional Designation of Funds is envisaged, when finances pemiit, for major works on the roof, with estimates in the current post pandemic circumstances varying from £600,000 to £900,000. 14 URBAN PARTNERSHIP GROUP (A Company limited by Guarantee) Chartty Number 3446256 Company Number 1092258 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL sfATEMENTS R THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2021 (continued) IE eased Assets Rentals applicable to operating Leases, where substantially all of the benefit5 and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the Statements of Financial Activities on straight-line basis over the term of the lease. staff who previously worked for the Council continue to subscribe to the Local Government pension scheme (a defined benefit pension scheme) operated by Hammersmith & Fulham Council.
