**benefit)**|streetfootballworld (sfw) was set up in 2002, working in the field of
Development through Football. It set up the sfw network in 2004 to
interconnect and strengthen the long-term social development initiatives
pursued by members of the sfw network (network members) who use the
potential of football to transform the lives of disadvantaged individuals
from around the world. In October the organisation renamed to Common
Goal gGmbH to unify the brand and align with the new strategy.
There are currently over 200 community members, active in more than
100 countries worldwide, 7 of whom are based in the UK. The members
overcome local social challenges with programmes that use football as a
central instrument. The Charity, as the UK affiliate of Common Goal,
aims to help disadvantaged youth and community development through
football. Football is a vehicle for pursuing development of the life skills
(e.g. team work) and values (e.g. mutual respect) of disadvantaged
children and youths. Other goals for personal development include youth
leadership, anti-discrimination, social integration, and peace building. The
Charity aims to inform about poverty reduction, gender, health, and
environmental issues along with job training. It will also encourage the
furtherance of recreation and amateur sport by using football as the
method to pursue the Charity’s objectives.
The reason Common Goal was set up arose from the desire to further
these aims by:
1. increasing community membership in the UK;
2. seeking to raise funds in the UK to support this kind of work around the
world; and
3. developing a partnership with professional football in the UK so that its
strength can be leveraged to help achieve the aims of the Charity.
Furthermore, the Common Goal movement was increased in 2017 by
streetfootballworld, the world’s leading organisation in the field of football
for good. Common Goal encourages professional football players,
managers, officials and clubs to donate a minimum of 1% of their
earnings to support high-impact initiatives that use football to drive
progress towards the Global Goals. The movement’s long-term vision is
to unlock 1% of the entire football industry’s revenues — estimated at
€50 billion per year.|

## Section D Achievements and erformance p
The expected outcomes of the Project include significant positive changes in the education and working conditions within the specified villages and the Mykhailo-Kotsyubynskyi Lyceum:
Return to Normal Study for Children: A total of 415 children from various villages, including Mykhailo-Kotsyubynske, Zaitsi, Levkovichi, Lhiv, Zhukotky, Kovpita, Karkhivka, Pakul, Plohiv, Skugari, L. Krug, Semeniagivka, Shmayivka, Zhidynychi, Dniprovske, and Andriivka, are expected to resume normal study. The Project aims to restore and improve educational facilities, providing a conducive environment for learning.
Inclusive Education for Children with Special Educational Needs: The Mykhailo-Kotsyubyn Lyceum will reintroduce inclusive education for children with special educational needs. This commitment aligns with the goal of creating an environment that caters to the diverse needs of all students, promoting inclusivity and equal educational opportunities. Full-Time Return to Work for Teachers and Admin Personnel: The lyceum's 42 pedagogical workers, including teachers, teacher assistants, educators, a psychologist, a social pedagogue, deputy directors, and the director, are expected to return to full-time work. This return is crucial for maintaining a consistent and effective educational process.
The Project addresses the challenges related to the destruction of educational premises, aiming to provide a suitable environment for faceto-face education.
Transition to a Face-to-Face Education Format: Despite the current challenges, the Project seeks to transition education in the lyceum back to a face-to-face format. The reconstruction efforts are geared toward addressing the deficiencies in the existing infrastructure, ensuring that educational facilities are in satisfactory condition to support traditional, in-person learning. Enhanced Learning Spaces: The rebuilt offices and specialized rooms will provide fully equipped and functional spaces, fostering an environment conducive to effective teaching and learning.
Improved Structural Integrity: The recovery of the roof, windows, and doors will contribute to enhanced structural integrity and environmental control, ensuring a secure and comfortable learning atmosphere.
Optimized Learning Environment: Restored utility systems will reinstate heat supply, Internet connectivity, fire alarm systems, and security measures, creating a safe and conducive environment for educational activities.

improved fencing and lighting will create well-maintained and secure outdoor spaces for various activities.
The Project aims to not only rebuild the physical infrastructure of the lyceum but also enhance its overall functionality and educational environment, providing improved capacities and skills for both students and educators. The restoration efforts extend beyond the main building to create a holistic and revitalized educational facility, symbolizing a commitment to the holistic development of the educational community.
**Additionally Common Goal received in cooperation with Lyle & Scott Ltd a community funding. More than 40,000 GBP have been raised to fund community partners. This will continue in 2024.**
The Project aims to further objects for the public benefit including, but not limited to, advancing in life and relieve needs of young people and their communities including by the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare. Through the charitable financial contribution by Lyle & Scott, the Project Partner will enable five to ten young adults aged 16-21 years old to gain their FA Coaching Badges.
The Project will give access to Bloomsbury Football Foundation’s beneficiaries to complete their FA Coaching Badges. In the short term, this will result in better quality coaching for all those enrolled in the training sessions, while longer term it will give Bloomsbury’s coaches a quality starting point to build from in their career. The Project Partner will ensure that the beneficiaries will be given access to their FA Coaching Badges, benefiting both the coaches, as well as those being coached on a weekly basis establishing a professional level for all coaches involved.
The creation of a more experienced, professional coaching team will result in future sessions being held at the highest possible quality, focusing on the standard of football, as well as the development of all beneficiaries Social and Emotional Learning (SEL). Bloomsbury Football Foundation’s coaches undertake 28 hours of coaching on a weekly basis, therefore, 280 hours of coaching on a weekly basis will now be at FA quality level. Moreover, within a weekly basis, each coach reaches at least 150 participants, so over 1000 children will benefit on a weekly basis due to the Project’s implementation.
Sport is an important axis of attraction for many teenagers. Especially, football is a global language, which allows the socialization of many teenagers and young people. Well-used football is an instrument with great socio-educational potential that can contribute to the maturing processes of adolescents, and an exceptional socialization and empowerment resource. In the proposal of socio-sports activities that La Rotllana offers, the purpose is not the final result, nor to practice competitive activity, it is to enjoy healthy habitats with friends and colleagues, incorporating sport as a habit of life.
**TAR**
**April 2009**

## Section D Achievements and erformance p
The interpretation we make of socio-sporting activities and sport is based on the fact that it is an instrument and rehearsal stage of everyday life. Where, with good planning and awareness, it is possible to empower young people in different aspects ranging from habits and social skills, to group work, through respect for rules, and above all aspects such as the culture of effort and empowerment. We interpret socio-sports spaces as one of the best contexts for living together in diversity and where cultural differences can find a good meeting space and a good opportunity for equality.
The proposal will be addressed to all the students of the educational centres involved in the project, but it will also allow the participation of organizations such as open centres, youth centres, etc. Sport is an activity that motivates teenagers a lot, due to the impact and need they have for physical activity, being an activity that produces a lot of demand. In the neighbourhoods where the project is developed, there are offers of sports activities, but there are many boys, and especially girls, who for one reason or another are excluded. Firstly, the financial cost of joining a sports club, paying a federation fee or buying equipment is the main barrier. Second, sports clubs end up being very selective when choosing participants, as they are competition-oriented, and select the most skilled participants. Cultural diversity is not too present in sport, the tendency is to form sports teams with little cultural diversity (Moroccan, Pakistani, etc.) teams. To conclude, girls barely have opportunities to practice sports and the existing gender gap in the world of sports in relation to gender is very large. It should be added that the world of sports in general is not sensitive to nonbinary people, and even less so in these neighbourhoods where a masculinist culture or non-recognition of the non-binary gender predominates.
From our socio-sports activities La Rotllana wants to offer a wide variety of spaces for everyone. We will offer football because of the great social impact it has, but also other more minority sports. We address all students and teenagers in the area. We want to include in the project teenagers who do not have financial resources and cannot do sport in federated clubs, and also those groups of young people who have not yet taken up sport as a healthy lifestyle habit. It is important to reach all those who cannot afford a team sports activity, those who have been rejecting competitive sports clubs. Also those who simply want to enjoy playing sports with their colleagues or make new friends doing a little sport. In particular, we will prioritize the promotion and increase of women's sport, since sport is an instrument for the social empowerment of girls. Sport is an important tool for working from the point of view of diversity and inclusion.
## **Project’s Outputs**
The Project aims to further objects for the public benefit including, but not limited to, advancing in life and relieve needs of young people and their communities including by the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare. The proposal consists of generating socially inclusive and safe sports spaces through sport, which promote the empowerment of participants. With the aim that the participants improve their quality of life, thanks to acquiring the implicit values of sport. Promoting their personal development, increasing their socio-community roots and social inclusion, and improving their health habits.
The practice of sport will be implemented in three lines of work:
**TAR**
**April 2009**

Section D Achievements and erformance p
Making a multisport spaces proposal with socio-educational actions oriented to Fairplay and socio-educational dynamics, using Common Goal's Futbol3 methodology;
Forming different groups of young people who will participate in a social sports school, in small groups, to offer them greater, more personalized attention. Going deeper into the transmission of sports values and support to young people, which allows them to connect with their communities, through actions based on the "learning for service" methodology; and
Promoting the training of leading girls and boys as future coaches, and educators of this project, through training offered by professionals from the world of football and education.
The Project promotes football for good, offers opportunities to vulnerable youth and minority communities, and contributes to building community.
## **Project’s expected outcomes**
With the aim of reducing social inequalities and promoting the educational possibilities of the participants, we develop different sports competitions where all boys and girls will be able to participate without any inconvenience or barrier. We look for formulas to help participants overcome both personal and collective obstacles. We seek alliance with families and with different agents in their communities.
Thanks to the Futbol3 (sport3) methodology, we will develop aspects of coexistence and operating dynamics aimed at football for good, or sport for good, without room for violence or discrimination for any reason. Dynamics of healthy habits will also be implemented in terms of hygiene, nutrition and knowledge and care of the body. We highlight the use of fair play tables and involvement in the organization of the days to increase the score in the competition, valuing not only the sporting aspects, but also reinforcing social habits and skills. Application of the "green card" to positively visualize the sporting behaviours of each sporting event.

## **Section E Financial review**
The trustees have set a reserves policy which requires:
**Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** Reserves be maintained at a level which ensures that Common Goal UK’s core activity could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. A proportion of reserves will be maintained in a readily realisable form. The calculation of the required level of reserves is an integral part of the organisation's planning, budget and forecast cycle.
It will take into account:
- Risks associated with each stream of income and expenditure being different from that budgeted
- Planned activity level Organisation's commitments
The Trustees acknowledge that there has limited activity in the Charity over the last few years but that the intention is to build a much higher level of donations and the ability to fund more of its programmes. . At the moment any surplus funds are going to building the reserve, while at the same time allocating as much as possible to programmes that are now underway..
**Details of any funds materially** None – although still building the initial reserve, and with activity levels **in deficit** low at present the reserve is correspondingly low.
## **Further financial review details (Optional information)**
You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about:
- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising);
90 % of the donations of the Common Goal members go to the field, which support directly the programmes and projects of our partners. 10 % remain with the Common Goal organisation. Part of the funding in 2022 was used to employ one employee, who is responsible for UK and to fund several projects within our community.
- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity;
- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.
**Section F Other optional information**
## **Introduction to CG pledges**
In each calendar year, we have two fundraising cycles, which run between Apr - Sep and Oct - Mar. We then consequently make grants in Nov and May, respectively.
Throughout the calendar year, it is your responsibility to collect all the pledge donations that come through into one central tracker. The challenge here is that we offer our members many options to donate depending
on:
- the member’s country of tax residence
- donation value
- their project/org allocation
**TAR**
**April 2009**
11
## **Flow of funds**
Most pledges are made through our TGE (Transnational Giving Europe) network, where the donor can make a tax-deductible donation in their country of residence, if they live in one of the selected countries (more on this in the next section). All donations collected within the TGE network is then transferred onto KBF Belgium, where they make grants to community organisations on our behalf.
Alternatively, CG also have three entities and bank accounts in Germany, the UK and US. That means that members in these countries can make tax-deductible donations to us (rules apply).
This chart illustrates the flow of donations.

**Report to the trustees**
Charity Name Common Goal (UK) Limited
**On accounts for the year** 01/01/2023 – 31/12/2023 **Charity no** 1141803 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** (remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets) I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended **DD / MM / YYYY** .
**Responsibilities and** As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the **basis of report** 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 all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
**Independent** [The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to **examiner's statement** undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [insert name of applicable listed body]]. _Delete_ [ ] _if not applicable._
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
- • the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
