In October 2024, we recruited a Community Support Worker, whose function is to outreach and promote health awareness in African and Caribbean communities around Cardiovascular (CVD) and lung diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease - COPD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD. We will continue to support the Care Navigation team and the wider strategic relationships they’re founded on, embedding positive behavioural change and advancing collaborative, cross-sector approaches to enhance population health and reduce health inequalities.

Co-Production Theme: Our Co-Production project aims to tackle health inequalities locally by supporting both community organisations and health service providers to co-produce the design and development of key services across several community-identified priority themes. This year, we delivered 23 collaborative sessions that engaged 346 participants, thereby deepening community partnerships with seven key services. Engagement in sessions is very positive, for example, 100% of participants attending a session delivered by Haringey Basketball For All and the GP Federation’s Long-Term Conditions Service found it ‘Extremely Useful’ and felt 'Very Supported’. Other collaborations between community leaders and services have shown similar levels of participant development and engagement. In 2025-26, we will work with NHS Partners to align the project activities with the NHS Neighbourhood Health Plan. Volunteering 4 Health: This programme is a partnership between the Bridge Renewal Trust and the Volunteer Centres of five neighbouring boroughs that make up the North Central London Integrated Care Board (ICB): Haringey, Camden, Islington, Enfield, and Barnet. The overarching aim of the programme is to increase the level and diversity of volunteering in NHS settings over three years, from 2024 to 2027. Additional outcomes include embedding volunteering in priority ICB workstreams; meeting the needs of NHS Charities Volunteer Programmes; sharing innovative volunteering approaches via established networks; increasing the involvement of volunteers in decision-making; and developing pathways from volunteering into work. In 2025-26, we will continue the activities to strengthen volunteering in the NHS by providing more opportunities for residents. 

Mental Wellbeing Project: The mental wellbeing project continues to deliver community-led wellbeing activities to support those traditionally excluded from mainstream services. The project, led by Mind in Haringey in partnership with The Bridge Renewal Trust and 5 community based delivery partners (Community Cook Up, Sewn Together, Turkish Cypriot Community Association, You vs You, House of Polish and European Community) has reached 366 residents in 2025, and over 1500 residents since the project began in 2022. Through the project we have learnt that residents that are not accessing ‘mainstream’ interventions place value on local, community-led and culturally informed activities that improve their mental wellbeing. Popular activities include celebration of cultural events and meals, arts and crafts session including slow stitch meditation, and awareness raising coffee mornings where they can access relevant information from other voluntary and community service providers and statutory services. For example, services that have provided information in 2025 include: One You Haringey — Weight Management, Move More, Citizens Advice Haringey, Tottenham Talking, Haringey Walks, Mulberry Junction, Coffee and Computers, All People All Places (Edmonton), Estudiantes and Mind in Haringey. 

Residents engaging in these activities are then supported with other emerging needs. The community organisations have supported residents with mentoring services, health checks, meal vouchers, community laundry, digital support and access to food banks. The result of these activities and support services is that residents self-reported wellbeing is improving. Measured through the Warick-Edinburgh mental wellbeing scale, this year we have seen an improvement in self-reported wellbeing for all attendees. See tables below for comparisons between Q1 and Q2.

Through over 20 training sessions, workshops, and networking events, HWN strengthened collaboration and capacity across the Voluntary and Community Sector, particularly among BAME, Turkish/Kurdish, Somali, and faith-based groups, enhancing their ability to address mental health challenges, reduce inequalities, and improve wellbeing across Haringey. The project ended on 31 March 2025.

Our safer and stronger communities programme strives to foster a community in Haringey where every individual feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the community wellbeing. We do this by developing high-quality services and embedding of co-production and youth participation values and principles across our work. 

Home Cooked Northumberland Park ~~:~~ The Home Cooked consortium were successful in securing £800,000 across two years to deliver a violence reduction project in the Northumberland Park Ward. The programme is now in the second half of the second year. To date we have supported over 4,000 young people to access positive opportunities, employment, mentoring, mental health and education support helping to reduce violence in Tottenham Hale and Northumberland Park wards and improve the lives of young people in these areas. The Violence Reduction Unit will be funding the programme for a third year extension, bringing the total funding awarded to £1.2 million over 3 years, and cumulative total of £2.3 million across 6 years, a significant investment in hyper-local, community led solutions to tackle violence it’s root cause.

Since our Home Cooked programme began addressing youth violence in the borough. Latest 

Haringey data comparing incidents in 2025 compared to 2024, shows the following: 

e 11% reduction in youth violence victims e 39% reduction of knife injury victims e 9% decrease in robbery offences in the borough This shows the impact our programmes, amongst other stakeholder approaches, are having on the safety of young people in the borough. 

In 2024-25, the Bridge and the wider Home Cooked consortium reviewed the partnership to ensure the most impactful outcomes for local young people and communities. To ensure that the needs around mental health and family support were met, we welcomed Open Door as our new consortium partner. Open Door offer psychotherapeutic interventions to young people affected by violence and trauma, whilst also supporting their parents alongside their children’s journey. We thank our other partners — Godwin Lawson Foundation, North London Partnership Consortium and Tottenham Hotspur Foundation for the dedication and delivery. 

~~Strengthening Partnerships:~~ Through continuous learning, we have also strengthened our partnership approach with Haringey Council and the Metropolitan Police. Meeting regularly with Haringey’s Head of Early Help, Prevention and SEND to troubleshoot any emerging issues and network the programme into the wider statutory services such as the Learning in Tottenham headteacher’s forum, Family hubs teams, Exploitation, Early Help Panels and Youth Justice Service resulting in bi-directional referrals between statutory and community services. These strengthened partnerships ensure that the programme is aligned with wider violence reduction initiatives in the borough, and importantly, that more young people and their families can access the breadth of services on offer.

Home Cooked community forum, 29 Oct 2025 

All applicants of the most recent community fund round, whether successful or not, have been offered a package of capacity building workshops focussed on improving monitoring and evaluation processes delivered in collaboration with our Youth Echo - Partnerships and Social Action Lead. This collaborative approach demonstrates the compounding impact that our local youth focussed programmes are having on Haringey’s local youth sector. 

In 2025-26, we will undertake further work to strengthen the impact of our work and distribute additional onward grants to local grassroots organisations.

Youth Echo: Youth Echo was awarded approximately £1.1 million to address the racial inequity faced by Haringey’s Black and Minority Ethnic young people by strengthening their voices, empowering system change and supporting sustainability within the youth sector. The programme is now in the third and final year. 

We have successfully engaged 910 young people in personal development activities, provided training around peer leadership, public speaking, and peer mentoring to 180 young people. We have supported 80 young people to co-create impactful campaigns around guaranteeing interviews for 16—18-year-olds and sharing the impact of knife crime on young people's perceptions of safety. 

By providing young people with these skills and opportunities they are better equipped to advocate for local organisational and policy changes that affect them. The mechanisms which we use to centralise young people’s input to these forums include our existing Youth Advisory Board, and the newly developed Young Speakers Network.

The first cohort of the Young Speakers Network 

~~Supporting Haringey’s Youth Sector:~~ Young people’s voices are also represented through the collective of youth organisations in the borough. In 2025, Youth Echo launched Haringey’s Youth Organisations Network (HYON), which now sits on the North East Haringey Health Board representing the young people and the youth sector to shape key health strategies and initiatives. 

Through HYON, we have provided workshops on monitoring, evaluation, digital engagement, sustainability, the role of Al in Fundraising, and a series of funding-related webinars. The network has 52 youth organisation members, and we have supported 14 organisations to secure a cumulative total of £209,500 in grants.

misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in<br>the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information.

or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users<br>taken on the basis of these financial statements.<br>Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design<br>procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in<br>respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting<br>irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:<br>We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Charitable<br>Company and the sector in which it operates and considered the risk of the Charitable Company not<br>complying with the applicable laws and regulations including fraud in particular those that could have<br>a material impact on the financial statements. This included those regulations directly related to the<br>financial statements, including financial reporting, and tax legislation. In relation to the operations<br>of the Charitable Company this included compliance with the Charities Act 2011 and Companies Act<br>2006.<br>The risks were discussed with the audit team and we remained alert to any indications of non-<br>compliance throughout the audit. We carried out specific procedures to address the risks identified.<br>These included the following:<br>Reviewing minutes of Board meetings, reviewing any correspondence with the Charity Commission,<br>agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation, and made<br>enquiries of management and officers of the Charitable Company.<br>We have also reviewed the procedures in place for the reporting of any incidents to the Trustee Board<br>including serious incident reporting of these matters as necessary with the Charity Commission. We<br>also reviewed the latest risk register and legal fees in the period.<br>Management override: To address the risk of management override of controls, we carried out<br>testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness. We also assessed<br>management bias in relation to the accounting policies adopted and in determining significant<br>accounting estimates.<br>Because ofthe inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,<br>including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance<br>with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed<br>from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to<br>become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities<br>occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery,<br>collusion, omission or misrepresentation.<br>A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the<br>Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description<br>forms part of our auditor’s report.<br>Use of our report<br>This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with<br>Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006.
