## **Management Committee Report** 

The Iranian Association (IA) has been a resilient organisation which has adapted constantly to meet challenges. As an experienced grassroots organisation supporting low income people to integrate into the UK, we have been keen to improve our services, develop capacity, and ensure our clients gain support needed. 

We have been basing our work on our learning process which has set out a holistic pathway to address complex multiple needs for isolated, older and disabled people. Data collection done by our staff and analysed by an external evaluator using focus groups/ leadership discussions, led to our new hybrid service delivery model which offers online/face-to-face welfare/housing advice, emotional support as well as workshops to develop skills. 

We would like to thank Lloyds Bank Foundation, CAF, Community Fund, BME Health Forum and Comic Relief who have funded the IA over the last year to support 1,500 people with welfare and/or other advice affecting those struggling to integrate in the UK due to their complex needs. Over 150 people benefited from emotional wellbeing support. 50 people attended ESOL/ICT classes and 40 improved their physical health. We could not deliver this without the volunteers who were involved in activities such as helping older, isolated, disabled members develop their IT skills in using smartphones, tablets, laptops and social media (e.g. Facebook, WhatsApp). The client feedback and case studies have shown our services definitely helped save lives! The IA has noted a substantial increase in advice requests (despite the IA itself being under staffing pressures) from the agencies outside London as people have heard about our reliability/reputation. 

The IA also signposted the clients to relevant local services (GPs, Councils, Citizens Advice, Colleges etc.) and linked them into our established support networks e.g. ICT/ESOL classes. By intervening at the earliest possible stage, we prevented already vulnerable people from sinking into poverty, homelessness or mental illness. A pioneer of online learning/testing in London, we launched our Citizenship tests in 2005; in 2021-22 we helped 19,000 people take their tests at our centre. 

The IA has strong local and national links with relevant forums, health networks, and external government researchers which has helped us influence policies at local and regional levels. In 2021-22, the IA Manager continued chairing the BME Health Forum (focus on improving how the NHS, Public Health and Councils respond to our communities). He also sat on the Refugee Advocacy Forum (part of the Refugee Council) which has aimed to influence government policies on immigration, welfare, housing and health issues. 

Our report would be incomplete without thanking all the staff and volunteers for their outstanding work throughout the year; without their support many would be left vulnerable and isolated.

## **Bright Life for 50+** 

**A 58-year old woman said:** “I am sad to say that I always found it very intimidating that I could not meaningfully engage with my own grandchildren. I attended the ESOL class. Now I can read English and read to my grandchildren. I feel as though I have a more important role in the family.” 

**A 56-years old woman told us:** “I’ve learnt about so many possibilities using my mobile phone including Zoom, WhatsApp, online shopping, ordering a taxi etc… within the past few months in our IT classes. It helped me to stay in touch with people and to share things with them I wouldn’t have otherwise been able to.” 

**A  75 year old man said:** “I would not go to an exercise class in which the teacher did not speak Farsi. I would be afraid that I might not understand the instructions and then hurt myself”. 

With funding from the National Lottery Community Fund the Iranian Association (IA) delivered the three year “Bright Life for Older People” programme from July 2018 to June 2021.  The programme exceeded on all its outcomes.  1261 people were recruited and supported. 

The programme offered ESOL, IT and Health Awareness training and an Advisory service.  It also included activities to support volunteer befrienders to work with less mobile beneficiaries.  Although nobody could have predicted the emergence of COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdowns, these services and the two new initiatives of befriending and the exploration of using mobile and online technology proved invaluable tools to support the beneficiaries. 

The IA was able to continue delivering its services throughout the lockdowns.  The advice and information, counselling, IT and ESOL training and befriending scheme were needed more than ever. Fifty housebound beneficiaries were supported through befriending. Lockdown encouraged more Iranian and Farsi speaking people to experience volunteering for the first time and they are now eager to continue. 

Although the IA had planned to introduce blended learning and explore the potential of offering on-line training and advice sessions, COVID-19 provided the urgency to bring this forward sooner.  This has opened up a realm of opportunities as the IA is no longer restricted to deliver only in London and the new technology enables the organisation to support more beneficiaries in a more efficient and cost-effective way.

## **COVID-19 Recovery Grant** 

The Lloyds Bank Foundation has enabled the IA to provide advisory service, emotional support and classes/workshops and volunteering opportunities particularly for unemployed/low income 18-49 year olds who are the largest group of people in need of IA’s services. The COVID-19 has increased the needs of this group due to increased unemployment and family breakdowns. The funding has helped the IA reduce their isolation and financial hardship and prevent severe deterioration of their physical/mental health. 

## **A 35 years old woman told us:** 

“I’ve been unemployed and receiving Universal Credit (UC). During the pick of the pandemic the UC increased my payment for daily living. I felt depressed when I found out that this payment was coming to end. I have been struggling to keep up with my bills and payments such as monthly service charge and utility bills. I could not pay my bills on time which led to late payments. The IA advisor provided a listening ear and helped me with budgeting effectively, using other services and linked me into the established support networks. Her support has prevented me from falling into a deeper crisis.” 

The Lloyds Foundation’s COVID-19 Recovery has also provided consultancy support to increase the sustainability of the IA in running the key community projects by helping us develop a fundraising plan to address the funding emergency effectively. The COVID19 amplified the funding crisis for small charities like the IA, over a decade of financial austerity had already affected the funding for small charities; the local authorities have had almost no funding to offer community projects; the culmination of the difficulties was the cessation of London Councils BMER welfare/housing advisory services funding. The NHS has also had no or only short-term small grants to offer the community organisations. The IA had no funding to support the 18-49 year olds who were experiencing a crisis in their life; if we could not support them, they would be more isolated and experience increased financial hardship and severe deterioration of their wellbeing. As a result of the Lloyds Bank Foundation support and the emergency fundraising plan, the IA secured further funding from CAF Resilience Fund and Comic Relief Global Major Fund to help mitigate the funding challenges, continue our services and develop IA business strategy.

## **Advice, Emotional Support, ESOL/IT Classes** 

The Iranian Association (IA) has been successful in securing the CAF Main and Resilience Support grants for a period of fifteen months (January 2022-March 2023).  The CAF Resilience Fund is focused on supporting communities hardest hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The Main grant has enabled us to fill the funding/support gap left by the pandemic to meet client needs. In the first quarter, we helped 46 clients reduce their isolation, improve financial situations/ mental health, gain new knowledge/skills by benefiting from one or more of the services including housing/welfare advice, emotional support, ESOL/IT classes and volunteering opportunities and development. Furthermore, we have launched a newsletter to ensure more people better understand our impact. 

## **Resilience Support** 

The grant is aimed at developing our strategic and fundraising plan and producing a roadmap. The CAF support has helped us address our resilience needs in three areas: Organisational Leadership, Finance/Operations and Organisational Impact. It has enabled the Manager (CEO) to free up his time with the help of CAF funded Volunteer Coordinator, Communication freelancer and an executive coach/consultant to concentrate on strategic planning, long term funding and income generation. The funding enabled the Manager to hand over the volunteer management to focus on strategic planning. The consultant has been providing weekly coaching sessions and advice to the Manager to improve strategic decision-making and develop our strategic and fundraising plan; as a result, we have reviewed our values, vision, mission, key strategic objectives, PEST/SWOT, PESTLE, Stakeholder identification/mapping, Risk Assessment etc. Also, the communication expert has been providing advice to help us develop our communication strategy and build IA profile; following his advice we have launched a community newsletter to communicate better our impact.

## **Citizenship Advice/Test** 

The Citizenship test is a compulsory part of the UK immigration application process. The IA launched the Citizenship service in 2005 and is one of 30 or so advice/test centres in the UK. In 2021-22, we helped over 19,000 people with diverse ethnicities take their tests at our centre. At the same time as providing the essential service, the staff have had to follow the COVID-19 guidelines such as social distancing rules, wear masks/visors and sanitise desks/devices continuously to ensure the safety of the test candidates. 


**A female test candidate told us:** : “I would like to thank your team this morning at the centre. The staff were really warm and nice. The lady who was checking my docs was really polite and put me at ease whilst doing something that can be uncomfortable like security check. 

I strongly believe the staff behaviour had a huge positive impact in setting my mindset right today, so thank you. I give the centre 5 stars for the whole process.” 

On a daily basis the IA deals with telephone, email or face-to-face inquiries about the Citizenship test process and related matters. The candidates need to take the test to apply for Settlement or Naturalisation in Britain. They should book an appointment through their Life in the UK online accounts and attend the centre to take the test. 

Delivery of the tests during the COVID health crisis demonstrated the resilience of the IA in providing the essential services to the ethnic minorities.

## **Helping Clients Experiencing Racial Inequalities** 

Through the intervention of the BME Health Forum, the The Global Majority Fund/Comic Relief has supported the IA to work closely and share experience with a range of other communities experiencing racial inequality. Run for 12 months, the project helps the clients across all London boroughs to reduce financial hardship and improve emotional wellbeing by offering 1-to-1 phone, online or face-to-face advice on Universal Credit (UC)/housing run by professional advisors; offering an understanding, listening ear; signposting to relevant local; and linking clients into our established support network. 

**A middle-aged man told us:** “I was behind with my rent and the landlord asked me to attend a court hearing. I was very worried as I did not know what had caused this issue as I thought that the landlord was receiving the rent from Universal Credit (UC) every month. The IA advisor spoke to the UC team and I understood that there was a mistake made on my UC account; due to my low English they misunderstood me. The UC staff informed me that my rent would be paid fully directly to the landlord every month. I am very grateful for all the help I have received from the Iranian association for resolving this serious matter.” 

The project has supported 81 clients since its launch in October 2021 and has achieved the following outcomes: 

70 of clients have reduced isolation as they understand there is a place where they can seek advice and form filling and interpreting support 

65 have reduced financial hardship as a result of receiving advice on Universal Credit, benefits, housing and budgeting. 

27 have improved mental health as they received emotional wellbeing support 

53 have increased confidence as a result of the combination of using the advisory service, emotional support and referral to other external services and internal courses.

## **Immigration and Citizenship Information/Advice** 

The information/advisory service was launched in 1985 and is compliant with the OISC (Office of Immigration Services Commissioner). The service users have usually lacked sufficient English and have had serious difficulties in understanding the information and government guidelines; the advisor has explained their rights and answered their basic questions about the application process and has mainly focused on translating information and explaining the guidelines to the clients who may have also been signposted to other agencies such as immigration solicitors, Law Centres and Migrant Help as appropriate. 

**An Iranian Refugee:** “After I arrived in the UK, I submitted my political asylum application to the Home Office through a solicitor. However, I lacked sufficient English, could not understand the immigration processes and had a number of queries. I really felt depressed and needed a Farsi speaking advisor to explain the information, so I was signposted to the Iranian Association. The IA advisor answered my queries, read and explained my letters in a language I could understand. I feel much happier after talking to the advisor” 

Over the last decade there has been limited funding to support immigration advice, so due to the lack of funding, the IA has used the unrestricted fund to provide the basic telephone information/advice on citizenship and immigration/asylum processes and does not provide any case work. According to the Home Office statistics, Iranian people were the largest group of new refugee arrivals in the UK in 2010 and 2011, the second largest group in 2012 and 2013, the third to fourth largest group in 2014 and 2015 and the largest group in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.
