## **Chair’s Report 2022** 

I have tried in previous Chair’s reports to present GLADE’s achievements and prospects in the context of the wider society in which we operate and seek to realise our aims and ambitions.  That has not been easy over the last few turbulent years but I believe it has been important that GLADE adapts its tactics and strategies to reflect current social priorities and ensure our survival. 

Our role in maintaining the relevance of development education has become even more critical in the last year.  As government appears to lose sight of aspirations which are important to us, building wider partnerships and attempting to diversify, what we offer has become as vital as our day-to-day activities. 

So our response to the withdrawal of government support for global education has required imaginative adaptation of our existing programme and enthusiastic exploration of new possibilities.  We are well-placed to pursue these activities, given our national reputation and our track record of being able to respond to changing circumstances.  I have great confidence that GLADE’s legendary survival instincts will lead us to new and exciting projects over the coming year. 

As ever, GLADE’s Trustees owe a great debt to our Programme Director Lynn Cutler, whose report contains details of our activities during 2021/22, but may not convey how she has demonstrated her own commitment by her hard work and imagination.  Her partnership with colleagues in development education across Britain and beyond, as well as with Trustees, has provided the ingredients for GLADE’s continuing success. 

I would also like to thank my fellow Trustees for their continued enthusiasm and commitment.  GLADE benefits greatly from the experience that each Trustee brings to our operation and I look forward to their ideas and dedication carrying us forward into challenging times. 

Jon Gray Chair

## **Programme Director’s Report; Introduction** 

The GLADE Centre;  “building knowledge, skills and attitudes for change in a 

global society.” 

Since 1993 the GLADE Centre has existed to help people of all ages learn about the world and its people, building the key idea of interdependence. 

We help people find their own interests, local-global connections and actions to become involved in, with entry points through Intercultural Understanding, Sustainability, Global Citizenship, and Human Rights. 

We endorse a whole school approach to Global Learning for a Sustainable Future and to this end, have training offers to build practitioners' confidence and competence for global learning.  Educators can gain recognition with us for their global learning practice with the Global Teachers' Award  and whole school recognition with the Global School Award 

Beyond formal education, we encourage ‘social learning’ to help society in Somerset and beyond to _connect_ with global and local issues, _challenge_ their own preconceptions and _change_ the way they think and act for a fairer, more sustainable future for everyone. Whether through handling artefacts from our loanable Collections or taking part in our informal activities called Global Bites we are adept are bringing the world and Somerset closer together.

## **The GLADE Centre's year.** 

This has been a year when our live, online activity has been carried out by choice, often for the convenience for our participants, here and overseas. The quality of our online offers and our range of collaborative activity has been recognised within the Consortium of Development Education Centres (CODEC), by organisations such as British Council and by digital expert organisations too. 

Our face to face activity has involved local whole school INSET, as well as European residential train-the-trainer events. 

We continue to make the most of opportunities, with activity taking place this year including: 

Project funding from Erasmus+, led by Global Education Derby with partners in Estonia, Germany, Slovenia and Turkiye; teaching and learning for enterprise education and creativity. In particular, leading training where global learning can add value to entrepreneurship education, focusing on core skills of creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and citizenship to inspire and lead successful social and economic enterprise. 

Contracted delivery funded by Oxfam, led by Liverpool World Centre; teaching about climate justice. Our delivery of this short course for trainee teachers “ _captured the trainees’ imaginations, inspired them to make a difference and helped them consider and develop their role as future educators”._ 

Contracted delivery to widen reach of new classroom materials funded by Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust and led by Development Education Centre South Yorkshire; Non-violent Action: A Force for Change. 

Funded by FCDO and British Council, led by Pearson; delivering schools support across counties in the south west region within Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning. 

Contracted delivery of interactive webinars for British Council; guided international school partnerships. 

Recognition for teachers classroom practice; Global Teachers’ Award with option to self-accredit and gain Global School Award.

Continue running all our PCs and laptops with open source operating system of Archlinux and Libre Office for our work. Grateful thanks to volunteer Nigel. 

Appointing Kernel IT Services to take care of all aspects of our website management, improving efficiency and reducing our carbon impact. 

Application to National Lottery Heritage Fund for us to be engaged with a more diverse demographic, to benefit from different perspectives and to increase our capacity with new personnel; A Place Called Home. Grateful thanks to all who helped in progressing this. 

## **During 2022 – 2023 we are looking forward to;** 

   - Gaining success in securing funding to bring our Connect, Challenge, Change methodology into heritage and diversity contexts with A Place Called Home. 

   - Re-launching our loans service with our Collections of memorable objects and everyday items enhanced by digitised materials. 

   - Seeking new funding with our colleagues in Devon (DDE) and Dorset (DEED) to fund our charitable work across the south west region. 

   - Continuing our project delivery with Global Education Derby and European partners, of teacher development with new education materials and new delivery models in the area of entrepreneurship education. 

   - Collaborating with Oxfam to develop even further our reputation with local ITE providers and regional universities as Trainers for Climate Justice Education. 

   - Preparing the next cohort of trainee teachers to incorporate the human impact of climate change into their classroom practice, in collaboration with Oxfam and Liverpool World Centre; Teaching Climate Justice

**I express my heartfelt gratitude to Trustees for their commitment to the GLADE Centre and their belief in me to carry forward their wishes for our organisation. And I say a big thank you to GLADE Associates, volunteers and colleagues from the sector, for their friendship and support for GLADE.**

## THE GLADE CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[ST] MARCH 2022** 

## 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and follow the recommendations in Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting for Charities (SORP) issued in October 2000 as updated January 2003. 

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts. It is shown in full in the Statement of Financial Activities, when received. Gifts in kind are valued at their estimated value to the charity and are included under the appropriate headings. 

Intangible income is valued and included in income to the extent that it represents goods or services where another party is bearing the financial cost and the benefit is quantifiable. Where it is difficult or not possible to quantify the benefit, or where there is no financial cost borne by another party (eg. Volunteers), the accounts do not include the intangible income. 

Grants,  including  grants for the  purchase  of  fixed  assets,  are  recognised  in  full in  the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are received. 

Restricted  funds  are  to  be  used  for  the  specific  purposes  as  required  by  the  donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is allocated to the relevant fund. Income derived from these funds is retained within the funds concerned. Designated funds are unrestricted funds which the trustees have designated to be used for a specific purpose. Where these funds yield investment income, this is available for general purposes. Unrestricted funds are funds which are not designated or restricted. 

There has been no change to  the  accounting  policies (valuation rules and methods of accounting) since last year. 

Depreciation is calculated at a rate to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets on a reducing balance basis over their estimated useful lives. The rates applied per annum are as follows: 

|Fixtures and Fittings|25%|
|---|---|
|Equipment|25%|

THE GLADE CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[ST] MARCH 2022 

## 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and follow the recommendations in Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting for Charities (SORP) issued in October 2000 as updated January 2003. 

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts. It is shown in full in the Statement of Financial Activities, when received. Gifts in kind are valued at their estimated value to the charity and are included under the appropriate headings. 

Intangible income is valued and included in income to the extent that it represents goods or services where another party is bearing the financial cost and the benefit is quantifiable. Where it is difficult or not possible to quantify the benefit, or where there is no financial cost borne by another party (eg. Volunteers), the accounts do not include the intangible income. 

Grants,  including  grants  for the  purchase  of  fixed  assets,  are  recognised  in  full in  the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are received. 

Restricted  funds  are  to  be  used  for  the  specific  purposes  as  required  by  the  donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is allocated to the relevant fund. Income derived from these funds is retained within the funds concerned. Designated funds are unrestricted funds which the trustees have designated to be used for a specific purpose. Where these funds yield investment income, this is available for general purposes. Unrestricted funds are funds which are not designated or restricted. 

There has been  no change  to  the  accounting  policies (valuation  rules  and methods of accounting) since last year. 

Depreciation is calculated at a rate to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets on a reducing balance basis over their estimated useful lives. The rates applied per annum are as follows: Fixtures and Fittings 25% Equipment 25%

## **12. RISK ASSESSMENT** 

The directors actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources  in  the  event  of  adverse  conditions.  The  directors  have  also  examined  other operational and  business risks which  they face and  confirm  that  they have  established systems to mitigate the significant risks. 

## **13. RESERVES POLICY** 

The directors have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity’s needs. This is based on the charity’s size and the level of financial commitments held. The directors aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The directors will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.
