Objectives and Activities

Karima Foundation, based in High Wycombe, works on various community projects ranging from education to sports with two distinct primary charitable objectives being;

1. To advance in life and help young people through –

2. a. The provision of educational projects;

3. b. The provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare designed to improve their conditions of life.

About Us

The Foundation operates primarily in the Oakridge & Castlefield area but benefits thousands of people each year across High Wycombe and beyond.

Most of the projects and services delivered by the Foundation operate from The Castlefield Community Centre (CCC).

The charity delivers a diverse range of projects including:

• Supplementary schools & Adult Learning - These schools provide young Muslims and adults a secure grounding in Islamic knowledge, helping to shape their identity as British Muslims. Graduates from the school have gone on to higher education, built professional careers, and returned to volunteer within their local communities.

• Public Community Library – The library serves the local community with hundreds of books checked out on a weekly basis. The Foundation is one of a few charities in the country which manages a public library service.

• Youth Clubs – Targeted activities at youth including a weekly club and “Lockdown” designed to provide a safe and welcoming space for young people whilst also nurturing to enable them to achieve their full potential.

• Sports – Designed to tackle poor physical wellbeing in the mostly BAME local community, the Foundation delivers weekly sessions for men, women, and children in Yoga, Circuits, netball, rambling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Archery, Swimming, Circuits, and Tae-Kwon-Do.

• Eid in the Park, Juma & Taraweeh Prayers – serve the needs of thousands of local Muslims. This involves extensive liaison and planning with Buckinghamshire Council and a significant volunteer led effort on the day.

• Scouts – The scouts troop delivers weekly sessions to Scouts, Cubs, and Beavers. These are designed to raise confidence, build character, and motivate young children aged between 5-14.

• Social & Community initiatives – Matrimonial service, Food banks, tackling social issues on inequality, drugs, domestic violence, litter picks and social lobbying for the improvement of live chances.

Summary of Achievements and Performance 2022-23

The Get Ahead Project

6

Executive Summary

The Get Ahead project, helps to improve employment outcomes or prospects of future employment outcomes for long-term unemployed individuals in receipt of Universal Credit. The service aims to predominantly work with vulnerable young people who are at risk of being inducted into gangs, lifestyles of drug use and violent crime as well as groups facing the most complex and intractable barriers to work but referrals can be made from outside this group.

Over the last 9 months we have evidenced further tremendous success. The project managed to achieve excellent community engagement and partnership working to date and has had 228 referrals against a target of 180 across both High Wycombe and Aylesbury, with 151 referrals against a target of 90 [IA1] in Wycombe and 77 referrals against a target of 90 in Aylesbury. 40 people have been helped into employment, delivering savings in prevention and universal credit of approximately £145,000 per annum.

Main achievements

• Team has grown from 2 members of staff to a team of 6 members currently. 2 full time Project Officers in High Wycombe and 2 full time Project Officers in Aylesbury[IA2] . 1 full time Project Officer supporting across Wycombe and Aylesbury joined the team from December 2023 to help support with the large number of referrals received.

• Employment clinic running weekly at Castlefield Library, which is now supported by partners such as One Recovery Bucks fortnightly to support the community with any substance related issues or queries.

• Working in partnership with YMCA and Old Tea Warehouse to support some of their residents with getting into employment. In the process of setting up a drop into both sites to begin once year 3 commences.

• Delivering regular workshops at the JC, Green Street and Castlefield Community Centres in High Wycombe and from the JC in Aylesbury.

• Signposting claimants into attending Multiply workshops across Wycombe, Aylesbury and Chesham to improve numeracy skills.

• Supported 40 people into employment across Wycombe and Aylesbury.

• Visit from local MP to the Get Ahead office, in recognition of the work being done within the community.

• Due to the high number of referrals a waiting list is now in place, with approximately 40 people waiting to receive support.

• Community referrals are also increasing.

The Castlefield Community Centre (CCC)

Castlefield Community Centre (CCC) is a managed and operated by The Foundation. This project has been running since October 2014.

The centre has its own management committee and retains financial and operational independence from the core services and activities of the Foundation. The management committee consists predominantly of unpaid local volunteers

who manage and oversee all aspects of CCC with some small services outsourced to local providers. The management committee reports to the trustees of the Foundation who retain ultimate responsibility and oversight of the running of the centre.

In the last nine years, the utilisation of CCC has increased significantly. Access and provision of services across all age groups and community groups has increased. CCC has strengthened links with local voluntary organisations, and the community as a whole, establishing a flourishing and self-sustaining community facility that is a vibrant part of the local and wider community.

CCC has a unique operating model in that it not only provides a local, safe and secure venue for external providers to hire but also facilitates delivery of its own provision. Some of the external providers currently using CCC on long term arrangements are Aflah Day Nursery, A public library service and the local community for private events.

Aflah Nursery has been operating from CCC since January 2017. The nursery runs 38 weeks of the year, Monday to Friday in accordance with the Bucks term dates. Their current provision provides 15 hours of universal funded entitlement for 3 and 4 year olds with parents having the option to take up the 30 hours of universal free entitlement.

In addition to a facility for external providers, CCC has a well-established provision of its own which consist of Castlefield Community Library (CCL), Brazilian Jiujitsu Academy, Autism Spectrum Club, Scouts group, Taekwondo Club, Archery Club, Basketball Club, Yoga, health inequality workshops and seminars, Special Mums’ Club, Youth Club and Fitness Circuits, alongside bespoke events depending on the theme, i.e. Mental Health Awareness Week etc.

CCC has vast and varied provision delivery across the week and co-shares the site with Bucks County Council (BCC) Family Support Centre (FSC, previously Sure Start), making the site a true community hub serving its local and wider community. Please note, CCC and FSC are two separate facilities co-joined on the same site.

Over the last nine years, we have gained considerable experience managing the facility and working in collaboration with statutory and community groups. All provision is well established, with CCC providing a safe and convenient venue for all its users.

CCC is always looking at ways to improve its facility and after consultation with users is exploring plans to provide a café, enhance existing washroom and kitchen facilities and improve existing user storage and office areas. These plans are being worked on with the aim to start delivering the improvements from March 24.

Castlefield Community Library

The library continues to serve the whole community and is an established core provision. It runs a number of events to promote reading and is seen as an asset within the community. A dedicated team of volunteers help maintain the provision. The library also provides IT facilities for young people to complete homework, research and access to the internet. A significant number of adults use the IT facilities to apply for jobs and print application forms

Karima Scouts

Karima Scouting has continued to grow and enjoyed great success since the return from Covid restrictions. The Group again went to a camp in the summer of 2022, taking approximately 30 young people and adults to the annual Muslim Scout Fellowship Southern Camp.

We continue to deliver valuable activities and support a variety of fundraisers including one at the local primary school. We also supported a local fundraiser for the Pakistan Floods and a small fundraiser for our own activities.

We have a number of plans moving forward including opening a new group and take on more children and volunteers.

Castlefield Youth Club

Our weekly youth club welcomes up to 15 youngsters on a weekly basis. We have a number of activities that were launched such as indoor football, table tennis, pool, PS4 and more. We have a tuk shop in the kitchen area which the attendees like to use. We also run a quarterly LOCKDOWN session which is a youth evening catered for 12-18 year olds consisting of a number of different activities along with food and a guest speaker to provide a motivational message for our youngsters. Our work has also continued outside of the centre. We have volunteers who conduct outreach work, taking a walk to the local shops to speak to youngsters and build positive relationships in the local community.

Holiday Activity Food Club

The Karima Foundation was successful in their bid to run a holiday club over the Easter, Summer and winter Camps. The funding is aimed at school aged children with the intention to provide holiday activities and a free hot meal during the school holidays. The club was visited by the HAF team and the council safeguarding teams, both commented on the professionalism, enthusiasm and energy of the staff team. We are one of, if not the largest holiday camp in Bucks with multiple days run over each camp. As the Easter camp ran over Ramadan we also delivered some evening activities for older teens to coincide with the opening of the fast. The Summer camp ran for 12 days with close to 105 booked daily.

Children were involved in a variety of activities including multisports, arts and crafts, cooking and games. We have successfully run the club for subsequent holidays.

Education & Supplementary Schools

Our objective of advancing life and helping young people is delivered through our long established supplementary schools. Early Autumn, the foundation started putting plans in for online delivery of its schools, which ensured a smooth transition when the national government announced a national lockdown. We were able to continue providing classes to 300 young people online

The benefits of attending a supplementary school are well documented. The Foundation operates four schools in High Wycombe, now in their 16[th] year. Students are taught from a varied curriculum and enjoy a diverse and engaging enrichment programme.

With humble beginnings, the school has organically grown and now serves approximately 300 young people from ages of 5 to 18. The schools consist of a Quran School, two Saturday Schools (Primary and Secondary) and Foundations of Alimiyyah Studies. A number of professionals teach and contribute to the school’s development ranging from British born Islamic scholars, qualified teachers, lawyers, paralegals, accountants, health and social care professionals and more.

9

The supplementary schools run a number of themed projects and social studies across the academic year as well as regular classes to enhance the children’s educational and social development and emotional wellbeing, enabling the students to be confident, flexible and resilient young adults, ready to take on future challenges.

Weekday School

With a tailored programme for children aged 6-10 years, The Weekday school runs a 5-day provision serving over 75 young people, teaching the core and most important aspects of Islamic learning. Fusing traditional learning methods with a more contemporary approach to teaching and learning, the Weekday School aspires to nurture upright citizens with a love of the Quran and high aspirations and strong Islamic morals, able to positively contribute to society.

The School, supported by the PTA, held another very successful Sports Day along with a community BBQ. The weather held us on tender hooks; but eventually the sun broke through for competitive races, with awards of medals and trophies for the winners. The students and parents enjoyed some well needed time outdoors.

We hosted a talent contest, attended by 150 parents and guests who watched the exceptional performances through categories that were selected via a strict selection process. We were able to enjoy some beautiful singing, poetry and sports skills on stage. Winners in their age categories were awarded gifts and certificates. All children used this opportunity to showcase their talents, which resulted in building confidence and resilience.

A successful awards ceremony was held at the end of the academic year and children received certificates for successfully completing their year with us. They were recognised for their exceptional efforts in learning and growth throughout the academic year.

With the new academic year, saw a busy period for our senior class as they prepared for their final year and entered a selection process for Headboy, Headgirl and prefects. The calibre of presentations was very high making the selection process very difficult for the sought after positions that provide an opportunity for the students to mentor the younger pupils and gain vital leadership skills.

In September we also held our annual bring and share picnic, providing an opportunity for the young people to settle into their new classes and meet their peers and teachers in an informal setting. Followed by the Macmillan coffee fundraiser which was welcomed by the community, with the help of our heads and prefects we were able to raise over £1900 for this important cause. We were able to highlight the importance of checking for signs of cancer and also share stories of loved ones that have been lost.

We introduced a monthly Creative Club, which provided a platform to develop the student’s aesthetic values and enhance their creative skills and artistic talents. We also saw the return of the school’s Qasida Group - the Mini Munshids’ Choir – auditions were held to sought new recruits.

Learning and development opportunities for our teachers included a Mental health and suicide prevention training session. We are looking forward to many more planned activities that will continue to nurture and support the growth of our students.

Saturday Primary Supplementary

The Karima Primary Saturday School serves children between the ages of 5 to 10 years with a total of around 90 students attending this year. During this reporting period Saturday School classes were held at the Cressex School. The school took part in many extracurricular activities to enrich and enhance the learning experience of our students.

The students were given the opportunity to audition and perform in the PTA led Karima Bright Stars Talent Show. This allowed the students to showcase a wide variety of talents, from singing to sports skill demonstrations. The event was thoroughly enjoyed by students, parents and teachers. To mark the birth of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), a "Letters to the Beloved" competition was run for the whole school. Participating students demonstrated excellent writing skills in the form of poetry and letters as well as their artistic flare with beautifully presented final pieces. The winning entries were displayed at the Castlefield Community Centre for the public to enjoy.

The school facilitates regular fundraising activities, for a range of charities which for this period included bake sales for the Macmillan's Coffee Morning and the Pakistan Flood Appeal, that the students are always keen to get involved with. The students and parents also look forward to the annual Sports Day, BBQ, end of year trips and our School Awards Ceremony as an opportunity for the whole school, staff and parents to celebrate our students' achievements.

Saturday Secondary Supplementary

Our secondary programme of study caters for children aged between 9 to 18 years old. We aspire to nurture upright citizens with high aspirations and strong Islamic morals, who have the ability to positively contribute to society. This year's intake of 130 regular girls and boys is coming close to the maximum capacity we have. Our programme of study is designed to go further in depth with specific aspects of Islam that have been introduced at the Primary school. Subjects include Tajweed, which is taught by teachers who take part in our Ijaza (formal teaching authorisation) programme, along with other subject areas such as Tafseer of Quran, Fiqh, Seerah and Historical Figures.

Foundations of Alimiyyah Course and FTA+

A course for children aged 12 years old and older to study introductory modules which have been designed by in-house specialists and delivered by qualified teachers. There have now been four rounds of entrants with total intake exceeding expectations with 70 boys and girls enrolling. The programme is one of intensive study including Arabic language, grammar, fiqh, aqeedah and Islamic manners. The core curriculum continues to be reviewed to ensure content is relevant and accessible to students. Our second class graduated this year with many now joining the ijaaza programme and or becoming volunteers at our schools.

Sports and Leisure

The Foundation fulfils its objective of providing recreational and leisure time activities in the interest of social welfare through a number of activities.

The Osswa Jiu and Grappling - Carlson Gracie 302 - HW

Taught by a Carlson Gracie black belt, the club made a successful launch last year with attendees from Wycombe and local areas. The club continues to grow, soon to become the largest grappling club in the Wycombe area. The club is now established and

11

continues to grow with three sessions a week. Kids BJJ and Ladies BJJ continue. The club is now well established in the High Wycombe community attracting a diverse age range. Weekly attendance exceeds 140 participants, with whole families now taking part. During the national lockdown these classes were transferred online, with families able to participate from the safety of their homes.

Sports for Ladies and children

The Foundation continues to provide a variety of sports activities aimed specifically at women and children. A significant provision for ladies has grown and now runs independently of the foundation, led by the Warriors. The foundation continues to support provisions indirectly. This has grown over the years and the new project independent of the foundation, Warriors, led by a dynamic group of female leaders to allow provision to grow further. The foundation will continue supporting this in any way it can.

Adult Education and community provision

Juma, Taraweeh prayers, weekly and monthly prayer gatherings

The Foundation continues to hold weekly and monthly gatherings of remembrance (mawlid) as well as yearly taraweeh prayers. The average attendees to such events can range between 30 to 300.

We had successful Quran Ijaaza, Tafseer of the Quran, pillars of faith series, Ihya Ulooom Udeen and misconception delivered by Shaykh Wim Van Ael, including the divine names, angels, prophetic adhiya, and much much more.Our classes are available online, delivering free public classes and community events via Karima Live. This resulted in a YouTube following of over 23000 members, with on average 10,000 views a day. With guest speakers and access specialists in history, psychology and leading imams from across the globe.

Talks/Lectures/Contemporary series

The Foundation continued to invite scholars and guest speakers to deliver lectures on a variety of topics. The area of focus has been philosophy, theology and contemporary issues.

Wycombe Community Eid

For The Eid al Fitr and Eid Ul Adha in 2022 we did not run any Karima led Eids. We trialled a period of allowing Wycombe Islamic Mission and Mosque Trust to run the event in the hope there would be a greater gathering of Muslims across the town.

We will be looking at options to deliver again if there is a wider need in the community.

Karima Building Project

The Foundation remains interested in acquiring land/building for a purpose-built education facility that can cater for the needs of the community and fulfil ever-increasing demand. With the extensive work and delivery taking place across the foundation, and the prohibitive cost of suitably sized sites this project is on hold. However, if an opportunity arises the trustees will pursue all options. On this basis, funds designated for this purpose continue to be treated as restricted. The foundation is actively exploring opportunities to extend Castlefield Community Centre to provide extra space and facilities for the projects and activities we deliver.

Inequalities agenda

The Karima Foundation is a thriving community led organisation working to address the needs of the black and minority ethnic (BAME) people in one of the most deprived areas in Buckinghamshire. The organisation has gone from strength to strength throughout the years and has developed expert knowledge about the local demographic and the culture of the community we are serving. The Foundation has expanded its role

12

to encompass wider determinants of health by recruiting subject matter experts. There have been some notable initiatives we have undertaken since the launch of the Health inequalities, Wellbeing workstream. The demographics of the ward Karima bases its work in, consists of higher populations of BAME people in comparison to the Wycombe average (73% for CFO and 30% for BC [PHE Fingertips API]).

We have delivered with partners workshops on suicide prevention, mental health and counselling with special providers. The Foundation understands the barriers for BAME communities in accessing healthcare services and would like to bridge the gap to actualise real benefits to vulnerable members of the population. This is increasingly important for wards where the lack of proficiency in English is higher than the Wycombe average.

The Foundation has been vocal on the need to increase engagement with the BME populations of Castlefield and Oakridge, to support people to take control of their health. The Foundation has worked with a number of organisations to penetrate into the hard to reach BME communities. Previous examples include working with the Bucks Maternity Partnership to increase feedback from BME communities.

The Foundation proposes holding a collaborative workshop inviting all key stakeholders to explore solutions on how best for statutory organisations to engage with the demographics (more specifically in Castlefield and Oakridge). Partners would include:

• Bucks Council community boards

• The local Councillors for Castlefield and Oakridge

• Bucks Healthcare Trust

• Bucks Clinical Commissioning Group

• Healthwatch Bucks

• Bucks Public Health

• Red Kite Community Housing

The Foundation has strengthened ties with the above listed organisations to ensure the voices of BAME people are heard.

Improving Cancer Outcomes

The Foundation launched an innovative project aiming to improve cancer outcomes for BAME individuals; two health champions were brought on board to help achieve our goals of ensuring those who reside in our communities live longer healthier lives. The role of the health champion is to deliver on the strategy that has been drawn up by our subject matter experts.

The champions will organise culturally competent cancer awareness seminars and workshops at community centres or places of worship. It is also expected that the champions will get involved with national cancer charities to campaign locally - and to assess whether the resources provided by larger charities (e.g. Macmillan Cancer Support) are appropriate for the demographic we are targeting. Additionally, the champions will be a key point of contact for the Thames Valley Cancer Alliance, to support our working relationship and co-produce solutions to improve cancer outcomes for the BME population.

Community Screening: Cardiovascular Health and NHS Health Checks

The Foundation has hosted community health events, inviting residents of Castlefield and Oakridge to get an NHS health check. Moreover a number of healthcare professionals gave up their time to screen individuals for high blood pressure and atrial fibrillation. Through screening, six individuals were found with undiagnosed hypertension and one with tachycardia was referred on.

13

It is imperative that screening in the community continues, so that people with undiagnosed cardiovascular conditions can be identified early and referred for treatment at the earliest possible opportunity. This leads to better outcomes for those screened and reduces the pressure on statutory services.

Walking Club

It is widely accepted that people living in deprived areas live further away from good quality green spaces, this lack of access poses problems for health and wellbeing of those individuals. Castlefield and Oakridge are high throughput traffic areas with a substantial number of vehicles parked on the roadside. This often results in obstructing footpaths further inhibiting people from walking and/or jogging.

The Foundation offers a welcoming environment at walking clubs whereby transport can be organised for the walking group to access walking routes in areas of outstanding natural beauty. The aim of this initiative is to reduce the inequality in access to green spaces, to encourage regular walking in a group setting and signpost to other provisions offered by the Foundation.

14

Trustees Report

The Karima al Marwaziyya Foundation (KMF) is based in High Wycombe. KMF was set up as an informal group of professionals who volunteered in performing grassroots community work, since its inception in 1998. As delivery and audience of The Foundation grew, pragmatic steps were taken for The Foundation to move towards becoming a registered charity, which was agreed and pursued, officially gaining charitable status in November 2007.

The aim of KMF is to facilitate educational and social welfare events and projects aimed at young people and for the benefit of the wider community to help increase awareness and understanding of British Muslims.

The trustees would like to recognise the continued efforts of all our volunteers and donors for their continued support and commitment in helping deliver our objectives which are summarised by our simple intention of servitude to our community.

Priorities for 2023-24

• Enhance the employability and youth skills, training and employment project - GetAhead

• Explore further opportunities for targeted provision for children who are FSM during holiday times

• ● Secure the long term future of the Green Street Community Centre with the aim of regeneration of the Green Street & Oakridge and tackling inequality

• Continue to promote sports and healthy living for all ages and genders, using these to enhance people’s health skills and job employability.

• Raise awareness of health inequalities including mental health, loneliness, knife crime, county lines and grooming and any other issues which may young people vulnerable.

• Explore the refurbishment (kitchen) and extension of facilities at the Castlefield Community Centre

• Establish a public endowment fund (WAQF) to sustain long term scholarship.
