## **Objects**
The charity’s objects as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association are to promote, maintain, improve and advance public education, particularly by the promotion of global education in Devon. Global education encompasses:
- Enabling people, including children and young people, to understand the links between their own lives and those of people living throughout the world;
- Increasing understanding of the economic, social, political and environmental forces which shape our lives;
- Developing skills, attitudes and values which enable people to work together to bring about change and take control of their own lives;
- Working towards achieving a more just and sustainable world in which power and resources are more equitably shared.
Our **Mission** is to provide a wide range of global learning opportunities for communities and schools in the South West, which increase their knowledge and understanding of global issues and enable them to take appropriate action.
Our **Vision** : A fairer and more sustainable world.
## **Overview of the year**
Like all organisations, DDE’s work in 2020 -21 was dominated by the restrictions of the covid-19 pandemic. Staff worked from home and most events went online. Nonetheless we have remained active, continued most of our activities in some form, learnt new skills and reached new audiences.
Our main community project, Telling Our Stories, Finding Our Roots in Devon, had to go on pause for a few months when the first lockdown began, but it restarted in August 2020 and it achieved most of its original objectives. It ended officially at the end of March 2021 and has produced a range of materials that will give a lasting legacy all available on the website www.tellingourstoriesdevon.org.uk, including teaching materials and three self-guided walking tours for Bideford, Okehampton and Tiverton.
Schools are still under considerable pressure and finding it difficult to engage, but we have had some success through the Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning programme. Our response to the Black Lives Matter movement continued, with Devon Diversity Consultants starting as a new initiative, responding to requests to improve the equality, diversity, understanding and awareness in organisations. Travel to Uganda has not been possible and this has limited the work of our Food for Thought programme, but we were able to raise funds to support families in our linked communities who were struggling to find food during the pandemic.
We continued an active and varied programme of community events, supplemented by a weekly newsletter – a lockdown innovation which started in March 2020 and we have maintained and – improved. DDE staff have become adept at Zoom and our events including a packed – programme for Fairtrade Fortnight and a whole term focussed on celebrating Windrush in Devon have attracted both long-term supporters and new people finding us for the first time.
Lorraine Cummings was DDE’s Coordinator throughout 2020 -21, except for two brief furlough periods. She took over in the role in January 2020, for what was intended as a 12 month appointment, but it turned out to be very different from what was expected! She has worked hard to ensure that DDE stayed active and that communications, both internal and external, have remained effective. The trustees are very grateful to Lorraine for her work and her input during a
4
very difficult time, and for staying on for an extra 6 months to see us through to the end of the academic year.
## **Structure and organisation**
The charity is a company limited by guarantee and operates in accordance with the provisions of its Memorandum and Articles of Association. The charity may act only in accordance with its objects and may not trade otherwise.
DDE is managed by a Board of Trustees. Our chairperson, Sue Kay, is a former teacher now working as a researcher at Plymouth Marine Laboratory. Our vice chair is Carolyn Hallett, a retired Special Needs Teacher. Our Treasurer, Dominic Richardson is an experienced business manager and consultant. The following trustees also sat on the Board throughout 2020-21: Mic Morgan works as a Counsellor, is an ex-University Senior Lecturer in Health and Nutrition and has worked as an overseas aid worker in several countries; Amal Ghusain is a recently retired secondary school teacher and a member of Exeter City Council, where she is portfolio holder for Equalities, Diversity and Communities. Two trustees resigned in autumn 2020, after several years as active and supportive trustees: Alison Sharpe, a primary health care worker and educationalist with experience of working abroad; and Belinda Martin, an enthusiastic environmentalist and outdoor education teaching assistant. We were fortunate to quickly recruit three new trustees: Harri Best is a primary trained teacher and DDE volunteer; Andrew North is a manager, currently with the National Lottery Heritage Fund; Des Kumar is a member of DDE’s Windrush group who has worked in a range of roles locally, including teaching and the police.
Dominic Richardson resigned from the Board of Trustees in April 2021, after seven years as treasurer. His work over those years helped us to survive some difficult financial times and to build our resilience, which has enabled us to come through the pandemic period in good shape. He was much valued as an enthusiastic, efficient and resourceful treasurer - DDE would like to thank him for his contribution to our work and our sustainability.
We are very grateful for all the time and support provided by our excellent trustees. We are pleased to have been able to maintain a very strong Board with a wide range of skills and experience.
Details of the Board of Trustees for April 2020 - March 2021 are summarised below. For purposes of company law the trustees are directors of the company. New trustees may be appointed by the Board, by ordinary resolution on recommendation of the existing Trustees. Each member has undertaken to contribute up to £1 to the assets of the company in the event of its being wound up with insufficient assets to meet its liabilities.
Sue Kay – Chair Carolyn Hallett – Vice Chair Dominic Richardson – Treasurer Mic Morgan Amal Ghusain Alison Sharpe (resigned 1/10/20) Belinda Martin (resigned 1/11/20) Harri Best (appointed 28/10/20) Andrew North (appointed 28/10/20) Des Kumar (appointed 25/11/20)

The charity trustees have had due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties. A statement of the charity’s activities, performance and achievements is given here, followed by our financial report.
## **Work carried out during the academic year 2020-21**
## **Education/Schools:**
The **Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning** (CCGL) programme has continued working with schools despite the restrictions on travel and no reciprocal visits taking place. DDE has provided level 1 training online with an 'Introduction to Global Learning' and 'Cross Curricular Planning' sessions to 30 teachers on the programme. Lorraine Cummings has continued to support 12 Devon and Cornwall schools on the programme as they navigated themselves through the year and adapted plans to fit restrictions.
The CCGL programme is being run by a consortium, led by the British Council and Pearsons. The Consortium of Development Education Centres (CoDEC), of which we are a member, is also part of the consortium. Lorraine Cummings is the Devon and Cornwall Advisor for this programme.
**The Global Teacher’s Awar d** is on offer to teachers, through CCGL and funded by that programme. Lorraine Cummings and Sue Errington are validated to run these workshops. DDE successfully ran their first online course in February 2021. The four teachers on the course went on to deliver sessions across their schools and reflect on their global teaching progress. The teaching will have impacted at least 120 pupils.
**Fairtrade Devon** ran an online programme for Fairtrade Fortnight 2021, featuring 15 coffee mornings with average of 19 people attending each. We also ran 2 teacher training workshops and 2 online school workshops with pupils. These had to replace our usual schools conferences. We were able to link up with Veronica Browne, Fairtrade banana farmer in St Vincent, who visited us in 2018. Veronica sent us many video clips which we were able to incorporate into the presentations. We were also delighted to be able to hire three Fairtrade interns, Corin, Fleur and Toby, who worked with Devon’s Fairtrade towns to assist them in pro moting their activities – and also the coffee mornings. Sadly, Veronica’s Fairtrade banana plantation was destroyed by the volcanic eruption on St Vincent. We set up an appeal to help the 25 families in her co-op, with food and water as they rebuild their farms.
**Email newsletters to teachers** go out every two weeks. Harri Best is a DDE trustee and local primary teacher. He emails Devon teachers with useful and up to date teaching resources, including those related to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
## **Food For Thought School Linking Programme, between primary schools in Uganda and UK.**
The spread of covid, lockdowns and poor harvests in Uganda meant that it has been a busy year for our Ugandan colleagues. So we launched a fundraising appeal to provide food parcels for a family of 5 for 4 weeks (at a cost of £30). We received donations of over £9000, providing food for over 300 hungry families. We had a Christmas Appeal, where donations of over £3000 from DDE supporters provided Re-Starter Kits and training to 90 families. The training sessions worked with 2 or 3 generations in a family, including school children, as, even now, schools have not fully reopened. At the Easter meeting of head teachers in Tororo, they decided they wanted some phonics training for their early years teachers. This had been planned for April 2020, but had to be
6
p ostponed. Training was quickly arranged with 2 trainers coming from ‘Read for Life’ NGO in Gulu city. 15 schools sent 3 teachers each for the 3 days’ residential training. We hope that using phonics will improve reading skills of the pupils. There will be more training. We will purchase some reading books in Uganda but also send children’s story books from Devon.
**The Cultural Champions** have been sharing their zoom presentation skills this year in preparation for the schools opening and invitations to deliver online sessions in schools. The Cultural Champion bookings are beginning to come in again as schools open up to visitors.
**The Catalysts:** DDE was successful with a funding application to the Emergence Foundation, to – work with pupils and teachers in 2 secondary schools Great Torrington and Coombeshead (Newton Abbot). The work will be based on our **Youth Cultural Champions and Make a Change programme,** which we created for a government-funded programme. Unfortunately, the pandemic has delayed this work which will now begin in earnest in September and be completed by March 2022.
**Restorative Practice** Sandhya Dave and Nicole Redfern completed Restorative Justice training, enabling DDE to respond to racist incidents in schools.
## **Community education, events and meetings:**
**Devon Diversity Consultants** was set up this year by Sandhya Dave, Ghee Bowman and David Samuels in response to the Black Lives Matter movement and they have been responding to requests to improve the equality, diversity, education and history in organisations. The team of consultants are devising and delivering diversity training to various organisations and institutions in Devon. Safe space workshops for People of Colour are proving very beneficial.
**Dance Against Racism** has been a successful fundraiser this year. Sandhya Dave worked with Exeter based DJ Somatic to bring people together online in two fundraisers to raise awareness of racism and to celebrate Global music.
**Telling Our Stories. Finding Our Roots. Devon’s Multi -Cultural History** Nicole Redfern successfully completed this project in March 2021, despite the setbacks due to Covid. She worked with Community Heritage Co-ordinators and volunteers in Bideford, Okehampton and Tiverton; together they researched stories of recent and not so recent migrants in the three towns. These are all on the website www.tellingourstoriesdevon.org.uk, along with recorded interviews with some migrants and their family members. The stories were successfully exhibited at Tiverton museum, Bideford Burton museum and around the town of Okehampton. Walking tours have also been created for the three towns so that visitors can read the stories in a covid-safe way. Schools resources are now available for free on the DDE website, aimed at upper primary and lower - secondary school pupils. Through these, pupils can learn more about Devon’s diverse and multi cultural history.
**Celebrating Windrush in Devon** continues to be important at DDE. In collaboration with Devon County Council our Windrush colleagues told their stories at weekly online events throughout Black History Month 2020. These events were well attended. The Global Centre programme for spring 2021 was entirely Caribbean and Windrush focussed. Recordings of the sessions are linked from our website, www.globalcentredevon.org.uk . David Samuels’ presentation about UK civil rights, reflecting the experiences of his own father in the Bristol bus boycott was very powerful. Faye Doris organised a session on covid, the NHS, Windrush and BAME community with national
7
speakers, which was very well received. This year, 2021, we were unsuccessful in our bid for a Windrush grant. However the community meets regularly and commemorated Windrush Day 2021 with Devon County Council. We will continue to make plans to celebrate Windrush and also seek funding for further events.
**Community programme:** we have maintained our programme of regular events and activities this year, making good use of all social media including Facebook pages, emails and the website to advertise them. A pandemic lock-down innovation is the production of a weekly newsletter with a listing of interesting national and global news stories, information about local events and links to campaigns that are relevant to DDE’s aims and interests. A full autumn 2021 programme of DDE events is being planned with a focus on the Great Big Green Week in September and COP 26 in Glasgow in November. It is hoped that the programme will be a mix of live events and on line.
**The World at Lunch** has been online all this year and has attracted a group who join regularly. Part icipants bring news items which are discussed and then shared via DDE’s weekly newsletter. **World at Six** evening talks and discussion have restarted online. The **Global Book Club** has also moved online, with the Exeter and Plymouth groups each meeting 6-8 times a year, attracting 5-10 people. **Devon Globe Trotters** had 2 meetings online during the year.
**The Legacy of British Slave Ownership** (LBS) Group has been active throughout the year. Group members are also part of the Windrush group and have contributed to the Telling Our Stories work, supporting new volunteer researchers.
## **Premises**
We continue to work mostly from home and hold meetings on Zoom. The office in the Exeter Community Centre remains our base and we hope to return later in 2021.
## **Staffing**
During the past year, DDE had a mixture of paid and unpaid staff.
- **Lorraine Cummings** was the DDE Coordinator except for brief furlough periods in January and April 2021. **Sue Errington** stepped back into the Coordinator role during these times.
- Unpaid staff continued to cover the main administrative roles, including website updating, emailing, book-keeping, community programme development and publicity. These included **Wendy Milne, Carolyn Hallett (as bookkeeper), Sue Errington, Mark Errington (IT).** We are very grateful to them: their contribution is essential for enabling the work of DDE to continue and flourish.
- **Nicole Redfern** completed the co- ordinating of “ Telling Our Stories, Finding Our Roots. Devon’s Multi - Cultural History” in March 2021 . **Laurel Miller, Rose Young-French and Lizzie Mee** also worked on this project as Community Heritage Coordinators.
- **Sandhya Dave** increased her paid work with us in response to the BLM campaign and worked two days a week with us from November 2020 as the Cultural Champions Coordinator and as a Diversity Consultant. Sandhya also works on other projects, including the Resilient Roots safe space workshops for People of Colour and co-facilitated the Windrush gatherings with Sue and Wendy.
- **Alison Derrick** led the workshops during Fairtrade Fortnight, February-March 2021.
- **Lorraine Cummings** led on the next stage of the Tree Power 2 project, funded by the International Tree Foundation (ITF)
- The **Cultural Champions** continue to work on a sessional basis.
- **Sue Errington** leads on Fairtrade Devon and the Food For Thought School Linking Programme with Uganda.
8
- In 2021 we welcomed 2 University of Exeter ‘interns’: **Jess Applegate** over several months and **Zoja Vizinger** for the summer. Both produced excellent work for us and all remotely, including social media posts, presentations for the Community Programme and support in workshops and training days.
- We also were able to fund 3 Fairtrade interns, **Corin, Fleur and Toby** : 2 school leavers whose educational progression to university was disrupted by the pandemic and 1 still in the 6[th] form at school. They worked with the Fairtrade Towns to promote their activities and produced some excellent videos and other resources.
- **Harri Best** a primary trained teacher, started his volunteer work with us during the first lockdown and is now a trustee at DDE. He continues to send a regular email with useful and topical Global Citizenship links to teachers.
- We also appreciate the on-going encouragement and help offered by our regular participants, **Angela Samuel** , **Gill Allen** , **Peter Wingfield-Digby, Di Cooper, Hilary Noakes, Peter Nickol, Lucy McKeith and many more.**
## **DDE Strategic Plan**
We aim to remain flexible and responsive, seeking opportunities to further our work within a – changing social, political and funding landscape and now with the additional challenge of working in a world changed by the pandemic. We will continue to focus on diversity, anti-racism and multicultural understanding as well as wider issues of global understanding and equity. We will seek to expand our work in schools when possible. Our community programme has shown that it is robust and resilient: we will experiment with a mix of online, in person and hybrid events to find the best mix as circumstances change. We expect to recruit a new DDE Coordinator in autumn 2021 and, as he/she settles in to the role, this will be a good point to review our goals and our strategy.
## **Fundraising and grants**
We have continued to fundraise through our supporters, with two appeal letters being circulated. Regular monthly and annual donations from supporters also brought in valuable income for our general funds. Many individuals supported the efforts of trustees and staff who took part in the 2.6 Challenge in May 2020. We are very grateful to everyone who supports us through donations, whether large or small.
A grant from Exeter City Council provided important support to help us through the disruption and lost income caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Telling Our Stories, Finding Our Roots. Devon’s Multi -Cultural History was mainly funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF); Okehampton Town Council, Okehampton United Charity Charity and Locality Budget grants from 3 Devon County Councillors provided additional funding.
Our major new project grant this year came from the Emergence Foundation, who are funding our next phase of Youth Cultural Champions with Make A Change young people, The Catalysts.
Grants from trusts and foundations continued to be a valuable source of income. The Elmgrant Trust and the Ashworth Charitable Trust have supported the work of Youth Cultural Champions. The Southall Trust, the Ulverscroft Foundation, the Pat Newman Memorial Trust, the Ferguson Trust, the De La Rue Trust and the Vegan Compassion Group have supported the work of Food for Thought.
The Gweneth Moxon Charitable Trust provided some support for our core costs.
9
Fundraising remains difficult and time-consuming, especially in a year with much disruption. We are pleased that we have been able to cover our costs and initiate one new project. Our financial situation is still precarious and a continuing funding strategy is needed to ensure our work and indeed sustainability are vigorously reviewed and promoted.
## **Publicity** .
Our website, www.globalcentredevon.org.uk, continues to be updated and also acts as an archive for our projects. We have several social media accounts, including Facebook pages.
## **Trustee appointment and induction**
We are always pleased to find potential new trustees, and we recruit by a mixture of advertising and word of mouth. Prospective trustees hold discussions with the Chair and Co-ordinator and are invited to attend a Board meeting as observers. Once agreement had been reached among the existing trustees, their appointment can be confirmed at the following Board meeting, in accordance with our Memorandum and Articles. A character reference is taken up for prospective trustees not already known to us. All new trustees are provided with information to familiarise them with the charity’s work, its structure and its governance _._
## **Summary of work done to promote the charity’s purposes for the public benefit**
As detailed above, Devon Development Education has undertaken a wide range of educational work within the limitations of the coronavirus restrictions. We have worked, mainly online, with schools and in the wider community across Devon, Plymouth and Torbay to raise awareness and understanding of lives in other cultures and other parts of the world, through both formal and informal education. Our work with schools and the wider community has enabled:
- the contribution of the Windrush generation in Devon to be celebrated and shared;
- unknown stories of BAME residents in Devon to be made available to a wide audience;
- teachers to understand how they can implement global learning in their classrooms;
- people in Devon to understand the impact of Fairtrade on producers’ lives;
- DDE supporters to understand the effect of the pandemic in Uganda and give direct help.
- These and all the other activities of DDE encourage people to reflect on the connections between their own lives and those of others around the world.
## **Conclusion**
The trustees are proud of the range of activities that DDE has been able to undertake in challenging circumstances and on a very limited budget, through the hard work of our staff and volunteers. The next year will require us to adapt again as society adjusts to living with covid-19. But experience over many years has shown the DDE is resilient and relevant to the needs of Devon today. We will continue to work for an informed, tolerant and welcoming society in Devon.
## **Responsibilities of the board of trustees in relation to the financial statements**
The trustees (who are the directors of Devon Development Education for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company
10
and of the surplus or deficit of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements the trustees are required to
- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently,
- Observe the methods and principles in the charities SORP,
- Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent,
- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.
## **1.4 Incoming resources**
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
- income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
- legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established. Incoming resources (continued)
- income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
## **1.5 Resources expended**
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
- expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
- expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
- other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
## **1.6 Covid 19**
The charity has considered the impact of Covid19. At the moment it is considered that the impact does not impair the accounts and measures are unnecessary.
However, this is under constant review and changes will be made if it is thought appropriate.
