We provide enough food to every guest so they can easily survive for the next 24 hours. ## **Wednesday Food Run Project** Every Wednesday, our Charity partner, Flemmings Mayfair Hotel, provides us 50 hot meals donated by Fleming Mayfair Hotel to the streets of London. This unique partnership prioritizes top-notch food quality, reflecting our commitment to the well-being of London's homeless population. This project has been run successfully since 2020. ## **Mobile Food BANK** Through this project, we've reached families in need directly at their doorsteps, providing essential items during challenging times, especially amid the pandemic. ## **Smart Food Bank** Our innovative approach includes supermarket prepaid gift cards, preserving the pride and dignity of families receiving aid while bypassing traditional logistical challenges. ## **Corporate volunteering** Our corporate volunteering programmed is unique here, attracting corporations to send their staff to volunteer with us. This Year, we attracted many big companies, including Kering Group (Gucci), who partnered to send their staff to volunteer with us. We also drew AND Digital, Siemens, IPSOS, Element, We have a vision that sharing and caring is the only formula that can change our social fabric, where each of us will be looked after by others, and it's happening now as big companies and professionals are coming forward to participate. ## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** We served people in need on the streets of London and families at their doorsteps throughout the Year. § e served over 12000 guests through our Friday Food Distribution and another 4000 guests through our Wednesday food run projects. - We also helped countless families in need. - Every Friday and Wednesday throughout this Year. - More than 2000 individuals volunteered with us. - We provided 25000 hot meals. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE, AND MANAGEMENT** Controlled by its constituent documents, Charity Begins at Home operates under a Declaration of Trust dated August 6, 2005. Our operations span London, Essex, Bedford, Manchester, and Birmingham. An appointed chairman leads a team of dedicated volunteers overseeing the Charity's management. ## **Charity Begins At Home Chairman's Report Year Ended 31 December 2022.** The past Year posed significant challenges for the charity sector, Especially post-pandemic and also due to the massive increase in energy prices, which ultimately affected the cost of living for all of us. The number of homeless people increased, so it was a challenge for us to improve our charitable activities. Over 50,000 hot meals, food and various essentials were distributed with our signature hospitality to those in need. Additionally, we raised substantial funds, enabling us to make a significant impact despite being a volunteer-based organization. My heartfelt gratitude goes to our outstanding volunteers and trustees for their unwavering support. By improving our resources, we aim to improve the quality of our services. We have expanded our reach and impact through collaborations with prestigious organizations and corporate volunteering sessions. We aim to empower the less fortunate through employment opportunities, training, and support. Let us envision a brighter year where we continue to make a meaningful difference together. ## **Muhammad Saleem Awan** ## Chairman § |_Section A_

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments which are included at market value. The financial statements are prepared in pounds sterling which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these statements are rounded to the nearest £. ## **Preparaton of the accounts on a going concern basis** At the time of approving the accounts the Trustees have considered that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts. Grants are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year to which they relate. Generally, grants have conditions attached that create a service requirement that must be met by the Charity and accordingly are included as incoming resources from charitable activities. Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred. Resources expended include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered. Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost including staff salaries relates directly to that activity. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset either over its expected useful life which is estimated to be at 5 years (3 years in respect of computers) or over the period covered by the grant. receivable which may be three years or less. Unrestricted funds are other incoming resources receivable without specified purpose, budgetary conditions or contracts and are available as general funds. Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the grantor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs. § ## Charity Begins at Home Notes to the Unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 Net incoming resources for the year |Net incoming resources for the year|| |---|---| ||2022| ||£| |This is stated afer creditng and charging|| |Bank deposit interest received|| |Depreciaton|-| |Impairment of Assets|-| |Accountancy and independent Examinaton|350| |Trustees expenses|-| |Incoming resources|| |Charitable Actvites|-| |Grants|-| |Donatons|56,306| |Other|-| |Investments|-| § ## Charity Begins at Home Notes to the unaudited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 |Expenditure
