REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Trustees’ Report for the Year Ended 31 December 2024

The Trustees, who also serve as Directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report together with the financial statements of Networkfour Community Outreach for the year ended 31 December 2024.

The Trustees prepared this report in accordance with the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), effective from 1 January 2019.

Charitable Objectives and Strategic Overview – 2024

In 2024, Networkfour remained steadfast in its commitment and support for some of Birmingham’s most vulnerable and hard-to-reach individuals. The charity’s principal objectives continue to focus on providing high-quality intervention, advice and information, to support and care for over 14,524 vulnerable young people and adults who each are experiencing significant personal and social challenge.

This mission has been delivered throughout 2024 via a diverse portfolio of specialised projects, each carefully designed to address the complex and evolving needs of individuals and communities that come to us requiring support and compassion. These initiatives are structured to tackle a wide range of key social issues, including but not limited to:

Homelessness & housing instability / Long-term unemployment & worklessness / Violence against Women and Girls / Domestic abuse & coercive control / Offender rehabilitation & outreach / Mental & physical health challenges / Substance & alcohol misuse / Debt & financial hardship / Signposting toward education, training & sustainable employment / Urban Street Youth Intervention / Sexual & Workforce Exploitation & Trafficking.

During 2024, Networkfour has supported individuals and families facing multiple, interrelated difficulties. This includes vulnerable children, at-risk youth, socially isolated adults, and families in acute crisis. The charity’s reach has also extended to rough sleepers, prolific offenders, and individuals requiring guidance into employment or career development pathways.

The Trustees have carried out regular strategic reviews throughout 2024 to evaluate the charity’s effectiveness, impact, and alignment with its core mission. Each project has been assessed in terms of its measurable outcomes and its contribution to improving the lives of our clients. This ongoing process ensures that Networkfour remains a responsive and forward-thinking organisation, capable of adapting to the dynamic social landscape in which we operate. In 2024, these evaluations have been conducted with due consideration of the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. This has informed both our operational planning and our long-term strategy, ensuring that Networkfour’s activities remain compliant, transparent, and deeply rooted in charitable purpose and care for the most vulnerable at all times. So, as we reflect on the progress made throughout the year, we have so much more to do and remain deeply committed to our mission and to the people we serve, striving to extend care, compassion, and practical support to all in need.

Charitable Activities

In determining the charity’s objectives and its activities, the Trustees consider the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. All proposed and ongoing initiatives are assessed for their contribution toward the charity’s aims and the capacity to deliver meaningful change to those served. Significant activities undertaken during the year included the provision of specialist advice, support, and guidance to individuals who are often excluded from mainstream services due to the complex nature of their circumstances. This targeted outreach remains central to the charity’s mission and impact.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

Structure, Governance and Management

Networkfour Community Outreach is a charitable company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales (Company No. 07316168, Charity No. 1146639). Incorporated on 15 July 2010 and granted charitable status on 28 March 2012, operating under a Memorandum and Articles of Association. Trustees, who also serve as company directors, govern the charity and may appoint new members as set out in the governing documents. In the event of winding up, members contribute up to £1. All Trustees volunteer their time without remuneration, with any expenses detailed in the financial statements.

Organisational structure

The trustees who have served during the 2024 period are disclosed above under Trustees Board Details and Charity Administrative details.

The charity wishes to acknowledge the outstanding and long-standing trustee chair-ship of our Retiring / Retired Chair, Mr Brian Eccleshall, standing down from his long and distinguished service to the charity due to ill-health from a position as Charity Chair, Trustee and Director in June 2024, having served so faithfully on the board for many years.

The Trustees met at monthly intervals, alternating meetings to combine the Charities CEO: Mr Gary Wicker. We continue to utilise both face-to-face and virtual meetings throughout 2024 via Microsoft Teams, first adopted during the COVID pandemic, and continued by agreement and in-line with Paragraph 12.3 - Quorum of the Articles. In addition, the wider team of Trustees and Management has convened twice during the year around wider, longer-term strategic and structural issues as outlined in a more detailed manner in this report. This has led to a much clearer assessment of our current effectiveness against objectives and awareness of the risks and opportunities in the future.

Monthly trustee accountability and real-time oversight have improved the Board’s risk management. In 2024, the potential loss of regular donors posed a major financial risk. Thanks to effective planning and successful fundraising and grant applications, funding was secured for the next 12 months. The charity now stands in its strongest financial position to date. A cost-effective, long-term fundraising strategy has also been launched to support future growth.

Project Outcomes and Development

The charity’s specific mission has been focussed on its three current projects:

Lifelinefour - This core project supported 649 vulnerable clients in 2024, primarily through our 15-year partnership with Force Contact and West Midlands Police (WMP). New referrals came from WMP’s Offender Management, Schools & Vulnerability Policing, and Neighbourhood Policing Units across Wolverhampton, Walsall, Coventry, Solihull, West Bromwich, and Birmingham. Support included emergency referrals to local authorities, schools, colleges, charities, employers, and churches, addressing issues such as debt, crime, domestic abuse, addiction, education, employment, and relocation. LifeLineFour faced challenges due to WMP Neighbourhood Policing reorganisation, limited funding, and stretched resources, leading to fluctuating case volumes.

Our Impact at a Glance

Over the past year, our dedicated team has made a real difference in the heart of our community:

Life & Sole

This project continues its yearly reach and incredible impact across Birmingham, surrounding areas of the Midlands and further afield. To date and writing this report in total we have given away 37,107 pairs of shoes and in 2024 - 3621 pairs of preloved good quality footwear went to the most vulnerable children, youth and crisis families in our city, the Midlands and beyond. We have on average recycled approximately 16 – 20 tons of worn and broken footwear and throughout this time we have remained partnered within our free retail unit for nearly 5 year inside of the iconic Mailbox Birmingham.

Life & Sole have given away 3621 free pairs of preloved shoes .

Life & Sole Future - We are deeply grateful to The Mailbox and the University of Birmingham ARLI Project for their incredible support in expanding the impact of Life & Sole. As we evolve to serve more vulnerable children, we constantly face the challenge of storing thousands of preloved and increasingly worn footwear. That’s why we’re committed to strengthening every aspect of the project—ensuring no child is left behind.

Retreads Social Business Development - Meanwhile, our CEO and trustees are nurturing the successful fourth-year partnership with ARLI and the University of Birmingham Engineering Faculty, exploring the viability of Retreads —our ESG-focused social enterprise dedicated to reusing, repurposing, and recycling footwear. Together, we’re making Life & Sole a shining example of community-driven transformation.
