TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The Board of Trustees, who are also directors of the Company for the purposes of the Companies Act, and trustees for charity law purposes, submit their annual report and the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Board of Trustees confirms that the annual report and financial statements of the Company comply with current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS 102).

Objectives and activities

To provide opportunities for young people living in the inner cities who face disadvantage to fulfil their educational potential and to provide guidance that will help them to obtain meaningful and sustainable employment. The objectives of the Charitable Company are set out in its Articles and Memorandum.

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.

Review of activities for the public benefit

Last year we continued to work in partnership with schools to identify children who because of multiple disadvantages and challenges within their home lives, experience barriers to achieving their full potential. We aim to adopt a holistic and person-centred approach tailored to the needs of each child with bespoke tutoring plans and with our GetFed provision, providing nutritious breakfasts for children at the start of the school day. This ensures that children in need do not go hungry, are ready to learn and can participate in normal school life. We have forged partnerships with other likeminded organisations to create the most effective ways to achieve our goals

Our continuing dedication to our young people’s future is demonstrated in this report. We exist to improve their lives and our experience shows that with hard work and the most effective methods a great deal can be achieved. We are always optimistic and strive to counter the negative stories we see in the media every day.

Getsmarter & Getfed Clubs

We continue to work in partnership with London primary schools to boost children’s academic attainment, focussing on English and Maths, alongside their overall confidence in the classroom.

A great deal of time and effort last year was concentrated in responding to the Covid- 19 crisis when we were forced to suspend all our after-school clubs.

As a charitable foundation offering free after-school tuition for 5-11 year-olds with difficult family circumstances, our immediate concern was that children who were already falling behind in their studies would be further disadvantaged by the disruption to their education. With support from schools, parents and children we quickly developed a new online tutoring offer that enabled us to switch from our traditional face-to-face approach to a new home-based tutoring model, working on a 1:1 basis and in small group, conducted via Microsoft Teams. We tutored 276 children in English and Math covering 1726 tutoring hours, supporting children across 10 schools in London throughout the national lockdown and their transition back to school.

Funded by the National Lottery Community Fund and in response to the pandemic, we provided a 6-month project called “GetReady”. The project supported 73 children during the lockdown with 450 tutoring hours helping them get ready to return to school.

CHANDRAN FOUNDATION

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

We provided online learning for children, working with their schoolteachers to identify areas where support was needed to catch up. We developed material that could be tailored to the needs of each child and recruited and trained 22 young undergraduates to provide learning tutorial support. In response to emerging needs, we extended delivery to assist parents facing financial hardship by providing financial advice and job-seeking support. We worked with housing associations and community support services to ensure parents could access the support they needed. We found that parental support was important to help alleviate pressure on children at home, so that they could focus on learning.

The Foundation is aiming to increase awareness of the GetSmarter and launch a new GetResilient clubs in as many Boroughs as possible. We are convinced that this is a positive and fun way of improving the overall learning experience of our children.

We continued to fund our GetFed Clubs to help our children. Covid-19 has shown how many low-income families struggle to afford the cost of food for their children. In response to this upsurge in demand, we expanded to offer free meals for children in need through the holiday period as well. In 2020-21 we fed 13,300 children.

Partnership working

Working in partnership with like-minded organizations is one of our priorities, as we believe this is the most effective way of achieving the best possible outcomes for our young people.

The Foundation will continue to engage with and build partnerships with housing associations, developers, local authorities, communities and other charities. At present the Foundation is working in partnership with Frankham Consultancy Group and a2dominion Housing Group.

The pandemic has exposed new areas of challenges. Many of the young people we work with are facing a devastating mental health crisis. In response to that we are working in partnership with the iheart mental charity to launch a GetResilient club.

We are always seeking to form new partnerships and securing future funding, as well as concentrating on delivering a quality service for our young people and the communities we are working with.

The Trustees confirm that they have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on Public Benefit and in particular consider how planned activities will contribute to furthering the Charitable Company’s objectives.

Financial review

During the year, the Trust received grants, donations and investment income totalling £ 104,351 . Total expenditure amounted to £ 130,283 .

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Confronting the Covid Challenge

The Covid 19 pandemic has presented huge challenges for the way all business organisations, charities and public services work. For the Chandran Foundation the virus offered multiple threats.

By the third week in March we had been forced to suspend all our after-school clubs. Yet the crisis brought positive effects as the foundation and its partners urgently sought new ways of working that would protect children from the worst impacts of the shutdown.

With support from schools, parents and children we quickly developed a new online tutoring offer that enabled us to switch from our traditional face-to-face approach to a new home-based tutoring model.

As a result we were able to maintain the vast majority of our educational programmes and ensure that the children would not miss out on the extra support that the shutdown had made even more vital.

The positive experience of our new online tuition model has led to a major reappraisal of the way we work. We now believe this approach can form a permanent feature of our offer to children - complementing our established school-based sessions. It also meant we were able to bid successfully for National Lottery Covid funding in the Autumn - resulting in a new online project supporting 73 new children.

The Lottery funding came at a crucial time. As an organisation heavily dependent on fund-raising to maintain our bedrock offer of free tuition, we have inevitably experienced a severe drop in income. In a normal year we run a regular programme of events with support from our corporate sponsors. We do not see these resuming until the middle of 2021.

We are continuing to explore new opportunities from grant-making bodies. Meanwhile in December we launched our first-ever online Christmas auction - raising £9,200, which will enable us to maintain services for children. As the year came to an end we were confident that with the continued support of our long-term sponsors - coupled with our own in-house economies - we would be able to replace a major part of the lost income.

We have been heartened throughout this period of unprecedented disruption by the continuing support and goodwill of our partners. This includes corporate sponsors who have been keen to help us reach more children, housing associations who see our work as vital to supporting low-income families and schools who have been willing to share pupil premium funding so that our tutors can continue their work.

Covid 19 has changed the way we work. But however challenging the last year has been for the foundation the threat presented to the life-chances of already disadvantaged children was seismic. In responding to these challenges the foundation’s work is now on an even stronger footing. We will not fail our children.

Structure, governance and management

The Chandran Foundation is a charitable company limited by guarantee. The Foundation was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.

The Directors of the company are also Trustees for the purposes of charity. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the trustees are elected to by the board. All new Trustees receive a pack of key documents to inform them about the company including information on their role and responsibilities.

CHANDRAN FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Chandran Foundation is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 5th Floor, 65 Leadenhall Street Leadenhall Street, London, EC3A 2AD, England.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2019). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Trustees have considered budgets and forecasts for the year ended 31 March 2022 together with the reserves held . Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity.

1.4 Incoming resources

Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

CHANDRAN FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1.5 Resources expended

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Support costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to particular activities, have been apportioned proportionately to the direct staff costs allocated to the activities. Governance costs include the costs of servicing Trustees' meetings, audit and strategic planning.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and fittings

Straight line 25%

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

1.7 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.8 Financial instruments

The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

CHANDRAN FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.9 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

The project supported 73 disadvantaged children who are most at risk of further social exclusion and isolation due to lockdown and helped them get ready to return to school.

The charity provided online learning for children from 6 schools in Ealing, Lambeth and Wandsworth, working with their school teachers to identify areas where support was needed to catch up. The charity recruited and trained 22 undergraduates to provide learning tutorial support.

In response to emerging needs, the charity extended delivery to assist parents facing financial hardship by providing financial advice and job-seeking support. The charity worked with housing associations and community support services, to ensure parents could access the support they needed. The charity found that parental support was important to help alleviate pressure on children at home, so that they could focus on learning.

The charity also provided breakfast boxes to 250 children and fed 70 children a day once school reopened. Together with these services the charity was able to offer a wraparound educational service to children to help them escape the poverty and neglect that has been exacerbated by the pandemic.
