Financial Trustee:

Structure, Governance and Management: Two annual trustees meeting held each year. Charlotte Healey, the Director, is in charge of the daily management and reporting of this charity. Trustees are appointed at the annual meeting between June and September where at least three trustees must attend, the minutes are circulated, and any decision circulated for agreement with other trustees. Appointments of Trustees are reviewed each year with any interested parties who have contacted the charity presented at the annual meeting with the current trustees resigning and being re-elected. Trustees do not receive remuneration or any other benefits for their service.

Reporting: Financial year end is Mar-21 and operational performance ending Dec-20 to cover 2020/2021 Annual Reporting period.

Financial Performance: In the accounting period ending March-2020 total income was £38,751 and Total expenditure totaled (£33,366). At the end of the accounting period, funds in the UK bank account were £70,461

Of those funds:

• £6,000 were restricted to charitable activities in August and September, and

• Further £10,000 for the outreach and mentoring activities in 2020/2021

• £7,000 set aside for IT equipment and COVID related funding requirements

• £15,000 reserves (see below)

2020-2021 fundraising activities met our target budget in order to continue with our programmes at their present levels. Our annual budget is now around £30,000-£35,000.

Reserves Policy: It is ZOV UK’s policy to maintain a balance on unrestricted funds which equates to around 5- 6 months unrestricted payments which equates to around £15,000. In 2018 it was agreed that we should increase the reserves to £15,000. We maintained a reserve in the form of unrestricted funds of £15,000 in 2020 which equates to 4-5 months. This level of reserves is deemed appropriate due to the varying nature of the income sources which are not guaranteed. It was agreed to keep the reserves at the level agreed in 2018 to reflect future income predictions.

Volunteers: ZOV would like to thank all the trustees who work on a volunteer basis to make the charity run and prosper. We also would like to thank the volunteers in Bulgaria who work directly with the children providing individual educational support.

Safeguarding: Although ZOV UK does not undertake any work directly with children in the UK, we do support the work of organisations on the ground in Bulgaria primarily through ZOV Bulgaria. The organisation is a licensed social support service centre for the number: Л – 3129-178 for supporting the skills and development of children including those with special needs.

Each year we ask for a copy of the signed licence and Katia, the director in Bulgaria, signs a declaration that all documents and contracts are in place for 2020/2021 for the safe and complaint operation of the organisation according to Bulgarian law. Copies of which are circulated to the trustees. We request and receive each year the financial accounts for the charities we fund in Bulgaria. These reports are available and are submitted to the National Tax Agency in accordance with Bulgarian law. These accounts can be viewed on the ZOV BG website www.zovbg.org.

We will only hold personal information where consent has been provided. Evidence of consent will be recorded and not passed on to any third parties.

Monitoring and Evaluation: Every 3- 6 months, depending on the level of project activities, we measure the children’s and young person’s improvements in:

• Communication skills

• Independence

• Behaviour

• Cognitive skills

• Self-esteem, and

• Team work

We also note achievements and participation in extra circular activities such as sports, participation in concerts and improved marks at school. In addition, we use evaluation forms and questionnaire so the student volunteer mentors can capture any improvements or changes in the children’s behaviour and educational achievements. Meetings are held during the year to make sure we are addressing the needs of the children and those who work with them in the best possible way using the feedback reviewed from all those involved in our projects. In addition to this the team in Bulgaria hold meetings every few months to review work with a meeting twice a year with members of ZOV UK to discuss how best to achieve our aims.

Objectives and Activities: In Bulgaria, 44% of children are at risk of poverty and social exclusion and large numbers of children are still placed in institutional care. These children are less likely to meet their potential and need extra support - particularly with regards to education. ZOV supports children who are growing up in institutional care, many of whom have suffered severe trauma. We also support children and young adults with a range of disabilities and those at risk.

We help them to prepare for life outside the home until they are secure and independent, and see each child’s unique potential, facilitating the development of their skills and talents. We also help them build confidence, by providing a range of different creative and educational programmes. Our dedicated team of staff have built lasting relationships with many children since ZOV started in 2006. Many of these children are supporters, volunteers and employees of ZOV today. We also support and work closely with the parents, care givers, staff of the homes, students and teachers. For example, at one centre we work for, around 90% of the staff have volunteered or worked for ZOV and/ or have participated in one of our programmes.

Core Projects in 2020

• Children’s Project – Four homes for children deprived of parental care, including a centre for Girls at Risk: 80 children

• Special Children Project – Four homes for disabled children some of which are residential: 100 children and young people

• Outreach and Mentoring – Six homes, two schools 153 children and 80 mentors, to prepare children for independent living and provide opportunities for

jobs and further education.

Achievements and Performance (end of 2020):

Awards and Studies 2020

ZOV won a national award from the National Association of Municipalities in Bulgaria for Good Practices in providing paid work experience as well as running the Education and Lifeskills Club.

ZOV won the Happy Childhood award for a third year running because of our work during lockdown and the success of the online mentoring programme. The award ceremony was postponed because of COVID, but ZOV was informed by the Child Protection Agency that this was one of the best

initiatives of 2020.

COVID-19

The impact of COVID-19 has intensified many of the existing problems faced by the children, such as isolation and lack of educational support. Without the support of parents, children have struggled to receive the resources and support they require. UNICEF (2020) reports that its essential to provide access to online schooling. Without this there is a risk to the mental health and emotional development of children as well as to their educational development (UNICEF, 2020).

Bulgaria first went into lockdown between March 18th until the end of June, and then locked down again on 27th of November. That lockdown ended April 2021 with all activities resuming in full except the mentoring programme which is still online. ZOV staff were not allowed to access centres during the first lock down in March so most activities were provided by staff working in the centres.

As Bulgaria entered another lockdown in November 2020 ZOV staff have been given special permission to continue working in the centres and are delivering key services and support to the staff, children and young people we work with. As the mentoring and outreach project is delivered by volunteers it is currently being delivered online.

Key Achievements 2020

Educational & Employment Successes

11 youths completed paid work experience, 4 of whom gained full or part time employment.

133 children received one-to-one mentoring support as part of ZOV’s Education Club. As a result of this, many children’s school results improved and general motivation has increased. During the first lockdown, 640 letters were exchanged between the children and their mentors as faceto- face contact was not allowed.

Since October the programme has gone online, with 120 children receiving online mentoring. Two other centres in Bulgaria have asked if they can replicate the success of our online programme.

50 educational videos using games activities and role play have been created by ZOV to support the online Education Club.

ZOV provided 2 young people with a university grant. In return, they volunteer and help out with ZOV’s Children’s or Education Clubs.

Out of the 8 young people that left care this year, 4 got a place at university, and another 4 started a permanent job.

Prevention of Children Going Into Care

100 children with a range of special needs, some of whom have parents who struggle to cope, received weekly music, art and speech therapy support.

In 2020 ZOV worked with a school, helping 40 children from poor families who are at risk of dropping out of school and becoming isolated.

Staff Wellbeing and Training

ZOV held training for 20 childcare professionals, including ZOV staff and mentors, on methods of working with children with behavioural issues and those with special needs.

5

100 staff members from 10 centres received specialist individual support and group therapy to learn how to better understand and support the children’s needs and behavior. This was particularly important this year to help support them through a very challenging time.

Volunteering

100 student volunteers from the local university provided weekly educational and mentoring support to the children and young people we work with. 5 of these mentors are now employed by ZOV. In 2020, 10 of these mentors graduated and were employed by the local social services.

26 previous mentors are now employed by the homes we work in.

Building Life Skills

20 children and 34 adults with special needs from the three Residential Centres have been taught life skills, such as budgeting, growing vegetables and cooking.

Overall, 118 children and young people received educational and life-skills sessions over the past year.

Empowerment

86 children participated in a range of weekly sessions, including music, dance, English, sports, computers, and cooking.

50 children participated in a Baba Marta traditional bazaar - a festival to mark the beginning of spring - and 120 in a Christmas Bazaar, raising money through selling gifts they had made in learning sessions organised by ZOV.

ZOV participated in 4 small concerts and

performances held in Centres with the only amateur folklore group in Bulgaria to come from Residential Centres for Children Deprived of Parental Care.

6

16 children received 25 medals after participating in only 2 national sports tournaments. Many of the other tournaments they would have participated in this year were cancelled.

The garden ZOV created in 2017 was invaluable during lockdown. The girls planted flowers and a range of vegetables including carrots, tomatoes and cucumbers. They also did a lot of cooking, including learning how to make bread and pizza.

Providing Recreational Opportunities

ZOV arranged for 167 children to have a summer holiday this year. Thanks to the generosity and support of Friends of Bulgaria, 60 children and young people from 6 homes stayed at the beautiful place that is Baba Stana. Staff, teachers and children are very grateful for the opportunity to go away for a holiday - especially after 4 months of being locked down.

14 environmental and educational day trips were organised for around 107 children.

Christmas presents and parties were organized for 165 children from 12 centres.

7

Resources

In response to the first lockdown in Bulgaria in March, ZOV supplied 300 masks, disinfectant and soap to the homes we work with as an emergency response to lack of provisions.

ZOV also provided the Crisis Centre with renovated computers and software so that they could fully participate in online and school programmes.

ZOV also provided 5 other homes with key IT equipment to get them online, including 30 headphones and cameras and 10 keyboards, and the renovation of 25 computers. This enabled 4 centers to continue with schooling.

Materials and activity packs for developing self-esteem and

positivity have been translated and sent to Bulgaria. These are especially crucial for the teenagers during lockdown.

Teachers and Directors

“ZOV’s support was really important as we felt so abandoned. Thank you for the disinfectant, masks, and for finding a way to continue with the life-skill sessions the

children so desperately needed” Staff at a Residential Home for Children Deprived of Parental Care with Special Needs

“We are so grateful to ZOV for finding a way to continue their sessions. The children were really struggling being so isolated, and the sessions really helped manage their stress levels.” Director of Gorna Oryahovitsa Centre

“Thank you for the incredible opportunity to take our young people to Baba Stana for the first time - it was such an amazing experience. After being isolated during the COVID pandemic, this was an extremely important and significant event for us. We are so grateful to Friends of Bulgaria and ZOV for organising this trip and sending their specialist to help" . Director of Residential Centre Penyo and Maria Velkovi

"We are really grateful to ZOV and the volunteers for not giving up even in pandemic time. We now we have our first two children who will become students at university and I am so proud. This was only possible with the support and encouragement of mentors and the ZOV team - thank you!” Anita Ivanova, Director of Asen Zlatarov Home, Vratsa

Case Studies:

Svetlana is 15 years old and currently lives at the Crisis Center for Girls. She was sent there 6 months ago due to a violent family situation, and when she arrived, struggled with anxiety and trauma due to her family situation. Gradually she has become more engaged in the activities ZOV provides – especially the gardening, arts and cooking. She is now a lot calmer, has learnt practical skills (e.g. cooking) and takes pride in helping to look after the garden.

"I really like cooking, gardening and making beautiful things with paper and beads. It makes me happy. My life has not been happy. Thank you for making at least a small part of it happy!" Svetlana, 15

As soon as Emily started participating in the outreach project in 2014 her grades started to improve and so did her confidence. She was provided with educational support to pass her school and university exams. She graduated from university this year after receiving a grant from ZOV to enable her to attend. She has also volunteered on our outreach and mentoring project, inspiring other children to continue their education or find a job when they leave. We are so proud of Emily and all her hard work.

“Thank you ZOV for all the support, I would never had made it without all your help over so many years not only while I was child at the Home but also while I was studying at University. I will be always grateful to you for everything you did for me!!! Emily

Ivelina and Ivalina have been in institutional care most of their life having been abandoned at a very young age. For the last three years, ZOV has provided them with educational support and mentoring. Their motivation to study and grades improved and they really wanted to go to university. Supporting them virtually, their mentors continued to provide educational support helping them prepare for exams, which they succeeded in passing. Ivalina will be studying child development studies at Veliko Tarnovo University and Ivelina medical rehabilitation at Sofia University.

“My mentor is a star, I am so grateful that she didn’t give up even during lockdown and was all the time helping me. Thank you ZOV for making this possible, my dream comes true!”, Ivalina, 18

Silvia has special needs and learning difficulties especially concerning communication. She is very shy and lives with her grandmother. ZOV has worked with her for five years doing art and music therapy and life-skills and educational support. She has become more motivated and now is a student at Veliko Tarnovo university studying social education. This is the first case where a child or young person with special needs we have worked with has become a student at university, so a great success story. Silvia is also now a volunteer in our Saturday club.

"Thank you very much for everything, I believe I can do it and I know I can manage with all difficulties, I am so happy!"

Ana lives in one of the residential homes and has learning difficulties. She has been a victim of abuse and struggles at school, especially with reading and writing. She feels very alone and struggles to make friends. This year she started participating in the educational club. Her mentor Maria has really helped Ana with her school work, sending her work and educational games each week – even during lockdown. She is now doing so much better at school. She is more motivated and every week looks forward to these sessions with her mentor online. Each week she is doing better and better .

“My mentor is great, she is so kind. I am so happy to have my own mentor! She is so careful and never shouts at me. She helps me with homework and I love learning with her”

Mary has lived in institutional care since she was 4 years old. She is now 15 and recently participated in our paid work experience programme. Mary always wanted to be a hairdresser so we managed to get her a placement at a local hairdresser’s. The owners of the salon were so impressed with Mary, they bought her a special training book and offered her a part time job whilst she continues her education. They also suggested further courses

she could do and she is now very motivated to finish her education and become a hairdresser.

“I am so happy as to be a hairdresser this was my dream! Thank you very much ZOV for support and for this great opportunity to participate. This can change my future!”

Plans for 2021

In 2021, through ZOV’s work, we will continue to research and develop methods of working with vulnerable children and children at risk with a focus on improving independence, behaviour and wellbeing. Two key members of ZOV are working on publishing three books based on our work:

Desislava Popova: PhD research on disabled children and alternative communication methods

Katia Zlatkova: new research on methods of working with children with behavioural problems living in local residential centres and a book about working with children with special needs

Yordanka Velikova has just become a PhD student and is going to undertake research on children with special needs

In 2021, ZOV will continue to develop our online programmes as the current situation regarding volunteer contact is unlikely to change until later this year. We want to involve more young people with special needs as well as girls from the Crisis centre in the online mentoring and Education Club.

Building on the success of the Individual support Project in 2020, ZOV will continue to provide support sessions to 120 members of staff who we work with us. The sessions will be provided in individual and group formats focusing on supporting the staff and how to address the children's needs in the best possible way.

2020[ has been an amazing year, with] 263[children benefitting from the ] programmes that ZOV runs. A special thank you to all our trustees - Lucy Rosenstein, Bran Zelenkov, Charmian Perkins, George Karaargirov, Dimi Velikov, and Mark Giulianotti. Also our funders and supporters - including Friends of Bulgaria, Communitas Foundation, Ana Zelenkov, Anelia Modrin, Conor Maxwell, George Velikov, CORDET, Desi and the London Bulgarian Choir and to our amazing team in Bulgaria, run by Katia Zlatkova.

Evidence of how our approach works

• In 2016 and 2017, 2019, and 2020 100% children who left the homes in which we work found jobs or continued on to further education. In 2018 the figure was 83%. This compares to 20% prior to our work.

• Two of our long-term members of staff have completed PhDs on ZOV’s results and methods of working with children. These methods have been used across Bulgaria. Two other members of ZOV are currently working on their PhDs related to ZOVs work.

• 31 publication - 8 publications in English 23 in Bulgarian including 3 books on ZOV’s work

• 380 students have provided mentoring and educational support to over 340 children. Mentoring and educational club are currently online and the success of this has been replicated in two other NGOs in Bulgaria.

• 90% of the Crisis Centre staff has been part of the ZOV Outreach and Mentoring Project. Three Directors of the homes we work with have been Mentors.

• 19 National and Local Awards

The trustees have confirmed that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the commission in exercising their powers or duties.
