K.C.U. DIRECTORS REPORT Page 3 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024

We want people to feel safe. welcomed and that they belong. We want to work side by side with everyone. We will listen. We want to build open and honest relationships, trusting others and being trustworthy ourselves. We want people to feel valued, included and respected. We want to support each individual on their own journey of growth and aspirations. We are clear and realistic, we are facilitators, offering space to grow within appropriale boundaries, guidance and resourc8S. We will be persistent. flexible and resilient, continuously learning to inform and improve, sharing thal learning with others. Our main services and initiatives are summarised below. Food with di Our non-traditional food provision operates a 'hub and spoke, model. People do not have to get a food voucher, take this to an identifiable foodbank in their community then have to tell their story again. Food parcels (packed by volunteers in our central hub) are delivered to partner organisations (e.g. services across benefits and debt,, children and families,. housinglhornelessness; credit union). People are hence treated with dignity through discreet access to food at the first point of contact. while also getting the support of the relevant organisation to help address the reasons why they needed food support in the first place. During the year, we continued discreet food support for staff at our local hospital who are struggling to make ends meet as a result of the economic crisis, DI ni in crisis 8ervlce6 Building on our dignity model, the Project provides essential household goods and clothing for those in genuine need (e.g. survivors of domestic abuse who have fled with nothing; homeless and rough sleepers; relocating refugees who have limited resources). Referred by partners, people are treated as customers and given essential goods at no cost or at a price they can afford. Through the Project we also partner with Citizens Advice Service, Corby and Kettering (CASCK) to provide discreet 'access to advice, outside the main CASCK offices. With Groundwork Northamptonshire, we deliver a 'Holiday Rangers, club at their communty allotment for families who fall into food insecurity during school holidays. Children learn about the environment, wildlife, engage in physical and educational activtties, increase their networks and are fed during the day. While there, they cook a family meal to tske home and are provided with a duplicate set of ingredients lo practice recipes. This means families experiencing 'holiday hunger, receive 2 cooked meals each week in addition to food parcels where needed. Children (aged 8-16 years) of families known to fall into food insecurty are discreetly referred by schools. clin Irec clin We operate an upcyclinglrecycling project from our charity shops. Free workshops are also provided where Individuals leam and practice upcyclinglrecycling skills. This reduces items taken to landfill, with sludents either keeping their work or the items are sold through our shops.

K.C.U. DIRECTORS REPORT Pag8 4 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 318T MARCH 2024 Mentorin Ibefriendin Our mentoringlbefriending supports vulnerable people and those with complex needs to deal with issues to get the most from their volunteering or work experience (befriending), Ihen when ready, helps them achieve and find solutions to their own work and life goals (mentoring). Through building competence and confidence. this enables people to reach their full potential who might not be given such opportunities elsewhere. Education and learnin centre In partnership with other education and learning providers, we provide free courses for those on low income or unemployed. Delivered in a 'non-institutional' environment, this attracts people who have nol had good experiences of formal educational settings in the past. Mentorslbefrienders support individuals who need extra help to engage fully in their learning. Courses during the year focused on IT skills as more services ar8 online since the pandemic and through local government reform, ESOL (English for Sp8akers of Other Languages) courses assist with the increasing number of refugees in the area. During the year we also started coursas for volunteers to gain qualifications. Volunteerin and work ex orlence Supported by our Volunteer Engagement Manager and Operations Director. we continue our journey to become a fully inclusive organisation, offering volunteering and work experience to help people reach their potential, including for those who might not be given such opportunities elsewhere due to the complexity of their needs. Achlevoments and performance The year continued to bring challenges as a legacy of the pandemic and then the economic crisis affecting people's financial stability and subsequent health and wellbeing. This not only increased demands on our services, but also reduced donations of food and household goods, as more people struggle to make ends meet. Despite the challenges, the year brought opportunities for support to help meet those demands. For example, the Household Support Fund (HSF) devolved to local authorities for distribution, enabled us to secure further financial support towards the end of the year to meet increased demands for food and through expanding our essential white goods support across North Northamptonshire. Many beneficiaries access more than one of KCU services to achieve desired outcomes. During the year. we calculate around 10,000 different people benefited from our services. This figure reflects some are multi- setvice users due to the complexity of their needs. Achieving public benefit keeps us focused on why we are here and helps assess the value and impact of our work. Many of our volunteers are users of one or more of our services. We find our approach to helping people while they also help others in their community through volunteering has developed stronger relationships and a feeling of pride. For many, their engagement as service users has seen them move on to becoming volunteers with us. Others have increased confidence andlor experience to gain employment andlor move into further education.

K.C.U. DIRECTORS REPORT Page 5 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024 Through our Dignity in Crisis Project, we continued to partner with CASCK to improve pathways to address financial hardship. The year, saw £62,374.24 income generated (e.g benefits) for local people and £456,734.15 debt being managed. Our discreet food support continues. In year, 3-day food parc81s were supplied to 4,225 people (of which 2,678 were adults and 1,547 were children). In addition, 359 vouchers for food andlor fuel were distributed through HSF funding. The Project also saw an increase in referrals for household furniture and while goods (151 referrals) providing essential items for 306 people in households supported. As a result of our crisis provision, we continue to help people access other seplices both internally and those of our specialist partners where needed. In addition to th8 Project figures. HSF enabled us to provide 180 new white goods items. Our non-inslitutionalised education and learnlng provision helps re-engage adults in learning with feedback ststing they would not attend formal institutions due to past negative experiences. Through menloringlbefriending, service users and volunteers are often helped lo reach theirfull potential by providing additional support often not available in other settings. In the year, 304 student places were filled through 40 courses. During the year, a new approach to engaging and retaining volunteers was adopted. In February 2024, a grant from Northamptonshire County Council supported our recruitment and retention activities. We now have 86 individuals in our volunteer pool. Our volunteering profile continues to diversify, with more young people having been recruited. Towards the end of the year (through a grant from The National Lottery's Awards For All funding) we were able to replace 15 computers used by our community, alongside the main office computer and laptop. Our old desktopsllaptop did not have the capability to upgrade and hence students had lesser quality provision and there were also security risks. This funding has also improved internet security and provides 2 years IT support. We continue to develop and learn from what we offer and how we deliver our ser4ices and have shared this leaining with partners. We continue to irnplement a programme of activity (started last year} to future-proof KCU to continue to achieve strategic priorities and objects in a changing and turbulent environment. This includes work streams reflecting on governance, financial sustainability and stability, human resources {stafflvolunteers) and marketing and communications. Future plan8 Our future plans include delivery of our strategic plan priorities previously noted, while retaining quality, safe and impactive serrfices, Our reflections on the year have further reinforced the importance of an integrated sepiices and partnerships approach to enable flexibility to meet our objects and the diverse needs of those we support. We continue to work towards becoming a fully inclusive organisation, part of which is to give opportunities to those who are socially and economically marginalised.

K.C.U. DIRECTORS REPORT Page 6 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024 Financial review Our finances remained positive through grants, public and company donations and a return to pre-pandemic shop income. However, Trustees are mindful there are a number of short-term and multi-year grants coming to an end in financial year 202412025. A new Funding Strategy has recently been adopted to support delivery of the Strategic Plan. This looks back at the previous strategy, presents a financial analysis of funding sources over the last 3 years, followed by key actions for longer-term sustainability. Trustees as part of good financial management set aside from unrestricted free reserves a General Reserve of a minimum six months running costs of the Charity. Due to increased costs, this will continue to be reviewed annually. Reserves policy The Trustees as part of good financial management set aside from unrestricted free reserves a General Reserve of a minimum six months running costs of the Charity. The reseNe level will be reviewed annually. Structure, governance, and management KCU is a company limited by guarantee as defined by the Companies Act 2006. Trustees are directors of the company and have director's responsibilities. Also a registered charity, Trustees have duties as set out by the Charity Commission. KCU operates within its Memorandum and Articles of Association (reviewed in 2021). Trustees recognise their major responsibility is to ensure good and appropriate governance of KCU in accordan￿ with Charity Commission guidelines and to have due regard to the Commission's public benefit guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance is relevant. The election process for a Trustee is by nomination at a Board rneeting and being seconded by an existing trustee. A vote is then taken where a majority is required. Trustees are from a variety of backgrounds relevant to supporting the work of the Charity and re-election takes place at the AGM. During the year the new Senior Management Team (SMT) structure and systemslprocesses have continued to be implemented. Trustees also retain lead roles to work alongside and support the SMT. These include governance, financial, safeguarding, marketing and communications and human resource focuses. Risk management. Risk management continues to be applied to everything we do. This includes both strategic and operational risks. As part of the review of the Strategic Plan, the major risks to which KCU will or might face were identified. A risk assessment and management approach is in place and as previously, will be reviewed at least annually. This includes activity to mitigate risks where appropriate. The SMT discuss these risks (and any emerging risks) including reporting to the Board of Trustees where actions have been taken under delegated responsibility or to seek endorsement for action where new risks are identified.
