Risk Management

The trustees regularly review the risks the charity faces and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate their exposure to the major risks.

In common with many other charities Global Generation faces challenges in the area of long-term funding and resource mobilisation. The charity continually strives to develop new and more diverse sources of income to fund our work.

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under Section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit. Global Generation carries out a wide range of activities in furtherance of its charitable objectives, as detailed under Activities and Achievements below. Where possible we have attempted to quantify the number of direct beneficiaries, and we also believe the community-building aspects of these activities provide benefit to the wider public both in the areas where we work and beyond.

Objectives and principal activities

The objects of the charity as expressed in the Memorandum of Association are

To achieve these objects, during the last financial year the charity carried out most of its work in London and through residentials at Quadrangle Trust in Kent and Wilderness Wood in Sussex.

Activities and Achievements

During the period the charity continued to take children, young people, families, local residents and business employees on a practical and reflective learning journey. The Charity helped them grow in themselves, in relationships and in practical actions to leave a positive legacy (I, We and the Planet).

Rooted in the rhythms and patterns of nature our projects have included a combination of:

Teams of paid staff and volunteers have led the work at the Story Garden in King’s Cross, the Paper Garden in Canada Water, and from our newest space the Floating Garden in King’s Cross. The main teams are Youth and Community, Gardens and Build.

Story Garden in King’s Cross

Through our weekly programmes, activities and workshops we inspire creativity and offer nature connection and outdoor learning opportunities, keeping nature at the heart of everything we do.

Our work in and around the Story Garden in Somers Town provides local residents, families, children and young people with the opportunity to get outside, develop practical hands-on and creative skills and connect to their local community and area. It bridges relationships between businesses and local people of all ages, creating a space for people from different backgrounds to find common ground, slow down, appreciate nature in the middle of the city and to imagine their futures differently.

Global Generation

Trustees’ report for the year to 31 March 2023

This year in the garden we embraced the dramatic changes to the seasons, moving from the sunny spring to the intense dry heat of the summer, the vibrant growth period in the autumn and then into the darkness, stillness and snow of winter. Throughout, the garden has remained a space of nourishment and respite, where people made connections with each other and learnt to appreciate the rhythms of nature in all its extremes.

Alongside a busy year in the Story Garden, we worked with residents from the local housing estates in Somers Town to make the area greener, with a longer-term aim to build a legacy of skills, knowledge and resources for the benefit of the community.

Throughout the year we have provided opportunities for young people and local residents to become involved in shaping the local landscape. This is particularly important in Somers Town where access to green space is low, poverty levels are high, and land is so contested due to largescale redevelopment in the area.

There are common threads in our work such as improving the wellbeing of people, communities and the planet through creating greater access to green space and promoting biodiversity and sustainability in the middle of the city. Our work goes beyond gardening and greening, showcasing what’s possible through dialogue, reflection, positive action and coming together as a community to create a new vision for the area and beyond.

The Need

The Story Garden sits at the heart of an area undergoing huge development and change, often to the exclusion of the local residents who feel the new spaces being created are not for them. Somers Town has some of the highest levels of deprivation in the UK and the life expectancy rate in the Somers Town ward is 10 years lower compared to the most affluent ward in the borough. The area is at high climate risk, has a lack of green space and the large-scale development has further created pollution and environmental damage to an already fragile corner of Camden.

The Story Garden was co-created by local residents, particularly young people and families, providing them with a way to feel greater ownership of a local green space and addressing the many barriers experienced by disadvantaged communities across London in access to safe green spaces. It showcases how disused urban spaces in the middle of the city can become an oasis for plants, people and communities to grow together and provide a platform for weaving people together who would not usually meet - people of different ages, sectors, abilities, cultures and social circumstances. In creating the right conditions for people to connect with each other and with nature something ‘more-than- expected’ takes place as a result of these relationships.

We ran the following activities and programmes at the Story Garden and in the surrounding area:

Paper Garden in Canada Water

Since April 2022 the Paper Garden has worked with over 1,800 local people.

We have responded to the needs of the local communities through:

The move and the build

This year saw the build of the new Paper Garden classroom really get underway. We have been converting an old shed into a classroom and office space, building a cordwood wall and upcycling materials. It is the largest cordwood build in the UK and largest circular economy build in London. Over 3000 volunteers and local people have helped grow the site so far.

As lime mortar can get damaged when it freezes, we had to wait until April 2022 to begin proper construction of the cordwood walls. This was a long and labour-intensive process, but this allowed us to involve 1000’s of people in its construction. We hired 10 young people to be trained in this traditional building technique and they then led teams of volunteers to strip bark, chop wood, mix lime and build it.

For other parts of the build this year we have been supported with site management and procurement by both Wates and then Mace. This has helped us source the majority of materials needed through circular economy practices meaning as much as possible is built from recycled materials. Through their supply chains they have supported with pro-bono or reduced cost labour to fit windows, install the ceiling, do all the MEP (Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing) internal fit out, painting the outside and internal carpentry work.

In January 2023 we hired a new Community Build Manager to oversee the remainder of the works and involve the local community in getting the space ready. It is due for completion in July 2023. British Land have kindly given us temporary access to an unused restaurant space to use as an office/group space while we’re waiting for the classroom to be finished.

The Generator Programme

From February-December 2022, 35 young people from Southwark took part in the weekly Paper Garden Generator Programme, a youth leadership programme for ages 10-18. At least 14 of these young people had access to Free School Meals, and 20 young people were from Black and minoritized ethnic backgrounds. The young people were in two groups of 15, based on ages, and attended biweekly garden workshops.

Residential camps with young people

In August young people from Southwark embarked on an adventure to the New Forest and to Wilderness Wood, in Sussex. In the New Forest 15 young people camped with other young people from Bristol, forming new friendships and connections in the middle of ancient protected woodland.

Global Generation

Trustees’ report for the year to 31 March 2023

This camp was run in collaboration with Black 2 Nature. In Sussex 12 young people slept, explored and foraged through a 62 acres of chestnut coppice, beech, Scottish pine, douglas, cedar and giant sequoia woodland. For most, it was their first camp with us; for some, it was their first camp at all. We all shared unique experiences with one another that brought laughs, tears, songs, stories and wonderful art.

Green Ambassadors

From February-December 2022, 35 young people from Southwark took part in the weekly Paper Garden Green Ambassador Programme, a youth leadership programme for ages 10-18 which enables young people to continue their journeys with Global Generation after completing the Generator Programme. At least 6 of these young people had access to Free School Meals, and 18 young people were from Black and minoritized ethnic backgrounds. The young people were split into two groups, based on ages, and attended bi-weekly garden, craft, cooking, social action, and mental health workshops.

The Green Ambassadors voiced their desires to make more gardens like the Paper Garden in the local area. We connected with local community groups in the Silwood Estate including Oopsy Daisy Nursery and Silwood Youth Club. Together with our Green Ambassadors we worked hard to turn a disused lot on the Silwood Estate into what is now the Alphabet Garden and Creative Space that launched in October 2022.

The Green Ambassadors also had the opportunity to help shape the planning applications for the new Park and Pavillion close to The Printworks in a consultation process with Townshend Landscape Architects.

Young people education workshops

Every week Bosco College students, including their ESOL (English for speakers of other languages) group, has visited the Paper Garden. They have helped build the new garden, cooked lunch, grown food, and had fires.

Roots and Shoots SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disability) students have visited the garden for monthly workshops, helping transform the new space.

We hosted a month long Intern from Career Ready and two work experience placements in July.

Time and Talents holiday club have used the new garden for outside activities. NHS Families and local families have visited the garden, watering, harvesting, and cooking together.

Twilight Gardening with local people and King’s College

We hosted 6 evenings of gardening and dinner for local people and health researchers.

Community Growing group

The Community Growing Programme has seen 14 members of the local community learning to grow food and develop a community garden. The group met once a month where they received training from employees, Jack and Seth, on an aspect of growing, maintained the community beds and enjoyed a communal meal. 10 out of the 14 members said this was their first experience of growing like this and 8 people don't have access to green space at home. The training included seasonal planning, seed sowing, feeding and caring for the soil, the basics of compost and harvesting crops. The training we provide includes tips in organising and growing communally, skills required to successfully run a community growing programme. This meant that the growers spent time each month self-organising; creating a seasonal growing plan and inputting on the development of the programme. Looking forward, the group will integrate further with Paper Garden's operations, getting involved with Saturday openings, community cooking and supporting with growing and maintenance of crops.

Primary schools

We worked with the following primary schools: Redriff, Albion, St John’s, St Joseph’s, Alfred Salter.

We have facilitated 60 workshops in the Paper Garden, working with every year group, from Year 1 to Year 6, in each one of our six partnered local schools. Activities are varied through the year, changing with the seasons but the education and experience has remained true to our practice at the Paper Garden. Working to incorporate the curriculum where possible, we used water as a prompt through the summer, understanding the water cycle and the human-made infrastructure around our water needs. This leads us to water in plants, and what the different needs of a plant are in order to allow it to grow healthily. In the Autumn and Winter term we deep dived into soil and what lies beneath our feet. This investigation was based around us creating our own soil on top of the concreted Paper Garden. Worms, compost and how soil bacteria supports our plants led us to important conversations around land rights with some of our older students. Opportunity for the children to get their hands dirty is always met with joy and excitement. We have sown thousands of seeds for the Paper Garden and the schools we work with, harvested organically grown food, turned compost and built new growing beds. Each child leaves with an experience they could not access anywhere else and with knowledge they didn't realised they wanted to learn.

Young Gardeners

The Young Gardener programme ran through 2022 with two groups of children from local primary schools, Alfred Salter and Redriff. The children were selected by their school's pastoral leads, identified as struggling with life within the standard classroom environment. The aim was to build their confidence, communication skills and improve engagement in their learning and wider school life. 40 workshops were delivered 40 children were involved.

Organisational Development

This year has seen a few changes within the staff team, with the hiring of a new Community Chef, Office Assistant and Community Build Manager. This has helped strengthen the team and brought extra capacity. This year we have been focusing on both wellbeing and inclusion, for staff and those we work with. The winter saw us pilot a new way of working during the colder, darker months to allow everyone to rest and recuperate, alongside a residential 2-night stay in the countryside together.

All staff have been taking part in Trauma Informed Practice training and we have set up a working group to support embedding this training in how we work.

Work towards the Triangle site has picked up, we have appointed a full design team including structural and MEP engineers. We are working towards the completion of our Agreement to Lease which is due to be completed in summer 2023 ready to take on the site at the end of the year.

Our newest space, the Floating Garden is now open to the public! Since arriving in Kings Cross in April 2022, it has continued to be developed by the young people who will use it, with a water themed mural, roof garden, insect habitats and herbal planting. Our public programme is going from strength to strength, with a series of community events and workshops planned for half-terms and with a weekly school programme running in between.

Volunteers

The Charity always welcomes volunteers. Volunteers have enabled the delivery of various programmes at the Story Garden in King’s Cross and Paper Garden in Canada Water by supporting the Youth and Community Team, Gardens Team and Build Team.

We are grateful to our volunteers who support the delivery of the work and the maintenance of the gardens and to King’s Cross Central Partnership, our lawyers at Freeths and the contractors on the King’s Cross and Canada Water development for their ongoing support.

Future plans

In line with our strategic plan over the coming year we have set ourselves the following strategic targets:

  1. To develop and maintain key localised gardens in Camden, Islington and Southwark influenced by I, We and the Planet. These will serve as Global Generation hubs for the team to operate from and as a base for our children, young people and community projects. We will share learning and practice across boroughs.

  2. To work with the directors of Wilderness Woods in Sussex and the Quadrangle Trust in Kent to run rural camps for children and young people and to be open to further collaboration with other organisations that support wildlife and holistic farming practices.

  3. To deepen our relationships and grow our outreach work in the communities with the highest levels of need in the areas surrounding our gardens.

  4. To actively work on greening and nature-oriented community work in the green spaces and streets surrounding the Story Garden and continue to develop the legacy of the Story Garden.

  5. To work with local young people on a co-build process for the Floating Garden, our community growing barge on the Regent’s Canal in King’s Cross.

  6. To finalise both the lease for a permanent Garden on the King’s Cross Estate in Islington and the fundraising for capital works, and start the build.

  7. To grow our influence and impact through writing, speaking and other forms of wider dissemination.

  8. To grow a resilient financial model for Global Generation aligned with the growth of the organisation.

  9. To invest in developing Global Generation’s culture, team, systems, skills and knowledge.

In King’s Cross, we will be looking to develop our legacy in Somers Town over the next five years by creating sustainable green spaces on underused pieces of land in local housing estates which will bring local people together, develop their skills and knowledge, support their health and wellbeing and improve the environment. This will take place whilst we initially continue to run our programmes in the Story Garden, and then eventually wind down our activities there and move to our permanent site - ‘The Triangle’ (working name) - in the Caledonian Ward of Islington.

The Triangle site will be a space where young people and the community can come together to learn about how to take care of themselves and the planet. There will be a process of community conversations, co-design and co-creation, so that local people, especially young people, have the opportunity to develop their skills and create a meaningful space where they have a sense of ownership. It will be a place for the local community to find a deep connection to nature and learn about biodiversity and climate justice. It will also be a safe and inclusive space, supporting the health and well-being of communities and the environment.

The new, permanent, garden will be built by the community and last for generations to come. Through community and youth workshops and programmes which are starting in March 2023 in the Story Garden, we will offer local people the opportunity to co-build the three structures on the site, each with a focus on a different type of sustainable construction. There will be a deliberate focus on ‘slow architecture’, emphasising the process of organic community creation, rather than a fast finished product. We feel it is important to offer residents, young people, children and families in Somers Town the opportunity to become involved in the early stages of this co-creation, so they have a connection to the new site as well as the opportunity to develop their skills by being a part of its early creation.

Trustees’ report for the year to 31 March 2023

Financial review

The financial year ending 31[st] March 2023 was a year of growth and move – the charity moved the Paper Garden and built a new Garden in a new location in Canada Water. The charity has shown a strong overall performance and grown beyond one million income in year for the first time in its history to a total income of £1.4m, a growth of £517k / 58% compared to last financial year (£885k). About 60% of this growth is down to one-off funding for the build of the new Paper Garden, with the rest being actual growth in delivery of the many charitable activities across the sites mentioned above.

Spend increased only by 21% from £791k to £958k. Staff cost increased the most by £90k / 21% mainly due to the full year effect of staff hired towards the end of last year, now including staff cost for a full year (the number of employed staff increased from 18 to 23 in the last financial year). Costs for running programmes also increased by 21% due to the increase of activities in year discussed above. Support costs increased only slightly by £30k compared to last financial year.

The net effect of these changes was positive and the charity enjoyed a surplus of £444k for the year of which £312k was restricted funds and £132k was added to reserves.

The trustees are pleased with this result and with healthy addition to reserves the charity is in a reasonably strong financial position for the challenges ahead.

Reserves

The trustees’ policy is that the balance of reserves held by Global Generation should be equal to between three and six months of the organization’s running costs, which in monetary terms means £226k to £452k based on the figures in these accounts. The trustees believe this level of reserves will provide short term financial stability and allow time to secure alternative sources of funding, in the event of a significant drop in income.

Reserves, which are shown as unrestricted funds in the balance sheet, increased during the period from £403k to £535k and were equivalent to 7 months expenditure at the end of the period. Although this is above the charity’s policy, the trustees believe this is acceptable given the coming move to and build of the first permanent premises at the Triangle site and the consequent increased spend and uncertainty in the budget for the financial year 2023-24.

Statement Of Trustees Responsibilities

The Trustees are aware that Company law requires Trustees to prepare financial statements to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that 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.

Statement As To Disclosure Of Information To The Auditors

So far as the Trustees are aware, there is no relevant information of which the charitable company’s Independent examiners are unaware, and each trustee has taken all the steps that he

Global Generation

Independent auditors' report to the Trustees of the Global Generation

We have audited the financial statements of Global Generation for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise of the statement of financial activities, the balance sheets and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis of opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' (who are also the directors of the company for company law purposes) use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

14

Global Generation

Independent auditors' report to the Trustees of the Global Generation

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement [set out on page 8], the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement 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 decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance 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 irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities, including fraud

The objectives of our audit are to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud or error; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud or error; and to respond appropriately to those risks.

Based on our understanding of the company and industry, and through discussion with the management (as required by auditing standards), we identified that the principal risks of noncompliance with laws and regulations related to their FCA permissions and requirements. We considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial

statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and taxation. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls) and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to increase revenue or reduce expenditure and management bias in accounting estimates and judgmental areas of the financial statements such as accrued income.

Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

16

Global Generation

Independent auditors' report to the Trustees of the Global Generation

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or noncompliance with regulation. The risk increases more when compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
