|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|Edens Trust supported 17 young adults,<br>aged between 18 and 30, during the period<br>of 2022 and 2022.<br>EET (Education, Employment, Training) is<br>a protective factor, especially for those who<br>have experienced grief.<br>100% of the beneficiaries either remained<br>in or started employment or training; two of<br>whom graduated from universities,<br>because of the 1:1 and group<br>therapy/coaching sessions Edens Trust<br>provided.<br>Supporting our beneficiaries to remain in<br>EET also has a positive impact on their<br>direct family and support network, along<br>with the economic benefits to society and<br>reducing the pressure on our benefit<br>system.<br>Through the various carefully selected<br>events, linked to grief support, such asThe<br>Ever After Garden<br>,Edens Trust was able<br>to allow parents and sibling groups to<br>come together and support each other<br>through their grief. This strengthened their<br>relationship, connectedness, and reduced<br>feelings of isolation. All of which increased<br>grit, resilience and emotional intelligence in<br>our beneficiaries.<br>Several of our beneficiaries have lost their<br>child/sibling to acts of suicide and so<br>feeling seen, heard, and supported has<br>made a significant positive impact on their<br>well-being and purpose.<br>We feel Edens Trust support has had a<br>direct impact on reducing the burden on<br>the NHS’s mental health provisions, such<br>as CAMHS, as Edens Trust has been able<br>to offer a bereavement service tailored to<br>the needs of the beneficiaries.<br>Edens Trust has also been able to provide<br>some of its beneficiaries the opportunity to<br>become trained mentors to care<br>experienced children, who too have<br>experienced loss. This provided our<br>mentors to use their live experience to<br>support others.<br>One of our beneficiaries has taken up<br>running half and full marathons, due to the<br>bereavement support he experienced and<br>is now committed to run a full marathon to<br>raise money for Edens Trust. This act of<br>giving back demonstrates the impact<br>Edens Trust has had on this young adult,|





who lost both his mother and brother.

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended **05 / 04 / 2023** . 

As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out  under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or 

- the accounts do not accord with the accounting records 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. * _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._
