REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2025
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
,
Significant activities
Refugee Radio is a charity based in Brighton and Hove and working throughout East and West Sussex to support refugees, asylum seekers and other vulnerable migrants, especially those who have been traumatised through torture, war and/or sexual violence and who might be suffering mental health issues and isolation.
Mental-Health Support Group
We facilitate mental-health support-groups for refugees and asylum seekers suffering from complex PTSD, stress and depression. We have been running the groups every week since 2011. They provide a space for people to safely share their problems and support each other.
Refugee Trauma Therapy
We provide long-term EMDR therapy for refugees and asylum seekers through our partnership with Brighton Therapy Centre. The intervention is for people suffering from complex PTSD who are excluded from accessing support from mainstream health services. The project helps people to speak about their traumatic experiences and begin the journey of healing.
Advice and Casework
We deliver specialist 1-2-1 advice and casework for refugees and asylum seekers who are experiencing homelessness, unemployment, disability and sickness so that they can access the support that they are entitled to. We advocate for people and represent them in benefit disputes and appeals. This project helps people to speak up when they are being excluded or discriminated against and to support each other as a way of promoting resilience at the individual and community level.
Social Activities
We run regular social activities for isolated refugees and asylum seekers, including everything from cycling to hiking, baking to dancing. These help people to make new friends and combat loneliness.
Radio and Podcasts
We produce radio programmes by and about refugees and migrants to help raise awareness of their experiences and to combat negative stereotyping. We help refugee musicians and writers to find new audiences. These enable refugee voices to be heard.
Oral History
We publish books collecting refugee life stories and oral histories so that they can be recorded and preserved.
Our beneficiaries come from around Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. They are all refugees, asylum seekers and other vulnerable migrants and most are suffering with PTSD as a result of their traumatic experiences in their home countries. The majority of our beneficiaries are long-term unemployed and many also have physical injuries and associated health problems from torture. In previous years, our beneficiaries were evenly split between those who have been granted refugee status and those who are still asylum seekers. Everything has changed recently because Brighton and Hove has become a "dispersal" area again which means that the Home Office is now placing asylum seekers in the city. They are getting little to no support at all from the Home Office and the city has no additional funding to cope with the new demand for services. A significant number of the newly dispersed asylum seekers are actively suicidal and have high needs. We are working very closely with those who are most at risk and monitoring developments.
Public benefit
The Trustees certify that they have had and paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. This they believe is demonstrated in the above paragraphs.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
We are now running three mental-health support groups across Sussex every week- in Brighton, Hastings and Eastbourne. We have expanded the number of groups and locations to meet the growing need from asylum seekers housed in emergency hotels in those areas. We have had a very positive partnership with the Sanctuary Café in Eastbourne who have established an exemplary model for joint service operations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period.

-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category.

Impairment of fixed assets
Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each statement of financial position date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of financial activities unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease.
