Risk Management
The trustees recognise that any major risk to which the charity is exposed need to be reviewed
and systems put in place to mitigate those risks. To this end, trustees are continually
monitoring and managin8 its risks and ensuring action plans are in place to mitigate those key
risks. These include:
Achievement of programme aims and objectlves
Availability of competent volunteers to manage the programmes

assurance that Identified risks are managed effectively.
OBJEcfivE, AIMS AND PRINCIPAL AcfiviTIES
The main aims and objectives of the charity, as outlined In its constitution, are:

This project almed to alleviate the loneliness and Isolation that many elderly refugees
experience. We contlnued hosting drop-in sesslons and coffee mornin8S that helped
refugees and asylum seekers build social networks and create friendships. Our
Inter8enerational mentorship initiatives also helped keep our elderly beneficiaries active
and socially connected.
Tralnlng & Employment
This programme supported unemployed young refugees to access trainlng and employment
opportunities. Through our guidance, several young refugees gained placements in
educational institutions or volunteer roles with other organizations. This support contlnued
to help refu8ees pursue their educational and career 8oals.

The Cost-of-Llvlng Crisis

response, we applied sUPPOrt efforts on activities that included:
Facilitating access to services and support in public spaces which otherwise is
challenging due to cost of living.
providing information, advice, and practical support to help refugees.
Enable access to warm spaces where families, individuals, and young people could
gather, reducing isolation and fostering a sense of communitv.

Across all activities, HCP'S work contributed to:

improved mental wellbeing and confidence;
increased access to health, social care and sexual health services,.

greater digital confidence and independence.

community-based support in improvin8 quality of life.
FUNDRAISING
The charity continued to face challenges in fundraising during the year. We would like to
express our gratitude to the Lottery {Awards for All), Wimbledon Foundation, Sport England
for their support, which allowed us to sustain vital services. We remain committed to
exploring new avenues for fundraisin8 in the comin8 year to ensure the continued success
and growth of the charity.
Reserves Policy
The trustees have reviewed the charity's reserves positlon and established a reserves policy
appropriate to the size, activities and funding profile of the organi5atitsn. HCP'S income is
largely derived from restricted grant5 awarded for specific projects. A5 such, the tru5tee5
consider it prudent to maintain a modest level of unrestricted reserves to ensure the charity
can meet its core running costs, manage cash flow fluctuations and respond to unforeseen
circumstances.
The trustees, policy is to aim to hold unrestricted free reserves equivalent to approximately
three months of core operating expenditure. This level of reserves 15 considered sufficient to
mitigate key risks, including delays in funding receipts, unexpected cost increases and short
term disruption to Service delivery. At the year end, the trustees reviewed the level of
unrestricted reserve5 held against this target and are satisfied that the reserves position is
appropriate given the charity's current scale, risk profile and funding arrangements.

HUMANITY CONCERN PROJECTS
Report of the Trustees
For the year Ended 31 March 2025 (Contlnued
The reserves policy will be reviewed annually as part of the trustees, ongoing financial
oversight.
Flnancial Revlew
During the year ended 31 March 2025, HCP'S income was derived primarily from restricted
grants provided by trusts, to support the delivery of specific charitable activities, donations
and fundraisin8. Expenditure was focused on direct programme delivery, ensuring that the
majority of resources were applied to frontline services.
The trustees monltored the charity's financial performance throughout the year through
regular review of mana8ement accounts and are satisfied that resources were managed
prudently and in Ilne wlth funder requirements.
