The Trustees of HIANA (Hope In A New Age) Foundation are pleased to present their report for the financial year ended April 2024. The following outlines the significant activities carried out during the year, focusing on our mission of relieving young people in conditions of need: "Focused on youth empowerment, we aim to provide a comfortable atmosphere for young people who have experienced hardship to grow and develop themselves.

## **Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report)** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## 1 **. Help for Young people and Families** 

## **Food and Clothing Banks** : 

Based in Oldbury Birmingham, we provided food and clothing banks to the community in Sandwell and Birmingham. In partnership with our local grocery stores such as Aldi, Tesco, Greggs, Wolverton, Sainsbury's - we received food items that were accessible for anyone within the area to pick up for free. HIANA also generously received clothing items from stores like Sports Direct donating sporting goods, also clothing donations from Sandwell Churches Link including boxes of shoes were made available for young people to select and pick up. HIANA also partnered with GAiN UK to run a cloth bank project for young people and families in need. 

## **Career Development** : 

We continued to support young people in their careers by providing career advice where needed. We provided placement and internship opportunities for university students in Birmingham and partnered with Sandwell College to provide 18 students with work experience which is set to be completed in May 2025. Placements and Internships provided are in collaboration with Creative Eden - a music and arts Community Interest Company based in HIANA house, in various areas including software development, media and communication, programming applications, business administration, working in a professional environment. We also helped young people who needed advice in the area of gaining employment with sponsorships in the UK and were successful. 

## **Mentoring** : 

About 70 young people between the ages of 15-30 have been mentored in the year and have benefited a wealth of knowledge and skills from receiving mentorship. Some of these young people have proceeded to establish their own businesses particularly in the area of music. We have also mentored young people based in Ghana and Togo who have been interested in advancing their music careers and getting employed in the music industry as musicians and singers. 

## **Help for Young people and Families** : 

We've helped young people who have had specific needs in terms of treating illnesses and financial aid for life's burdens. For example, we had a case of a young person who had life threatening burns from work and sought aid from HIANA, we stepped in to help pay some bills until the young person was much better and able to cater for themself.  We've also helped families who were stranded and in need of help in various areas. For example, we provided computers to help a family get started with their job search, TV for home use and other basic needs like clothes, heating etc. We helped a family make a good application to a housing agent to move to a better home after their current home condition was in a bad state. 

## **Partnership with Safe Families UK** : 

We collaborated with Safe Families UK - a charity that offers support, hope and belonging to improve the lives of those in our communities. The charity links children, young people and families with local volunteers who can offer them help and support. We have had volunteers support the charity to provide for families the charity supports. We also facilitated some seminars for the charity in our HIANA House.

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **Achievements and performance** _**(continued)**_ 

## **2. Space for entrepreneurs** 

## **Provided space for carpentry** : 

We provided a space for a locally skilled carpenter to continue his craft in carpentry within one of our spaces in HIANA house. This allowed his craft to continue more conveniently, making an impact in his life and in HIANA's as well where seating benches have been beautifully crafted and donated to enhance the space for young people in HIANA House. 

## **Provided space for videography/photography** : 

We also provided a studio space for a skilled videographer and photographer from a Muslim background, to establish his own craft within HIANA house after moving from being employed to being self-employed. Being impacted by this opportunity, we've also supported a French speaking young person who came into the country willing to enhance his photography skills and is currently working with the skilled videographer to achieve his dreams. 

## **3. International Mission and collaboration** 

## **Continued support in our mission in Albania, Togo and Ghana** : 

HIANA made financial donations to support education and the advancement of mental health within communities in Albania, Togo and Ghana. In addition, we shipped household and clothing items to the communities we've been supporting over the years through volunteers travelling across the country. We've also supported the evangelism campaign in Albania but from the humanitarian side, where we are helping to provide basic necessities such as food and clothes to people that the Gospel is being preached to in in Albania, this was a national campaign that was aired on the national TV in Albania. Through a collaboration with the Togolese association in Birmingham, we also used the avenue to support more people financially who are in need in Togo. Also, we've supported people who moved from Togo through the association to establish themselves and help them integrate more into the society, by providing financial support and job searching advice. 

## **4. Events and collaborations** 

## **Social Events** 

We hosted several events in HIANA House throughout the year bringing young people across West Midlands to have food together, have meaningful and impactful conversations and build good and lasting relationships with one another.  We saw young people who would have otherwise been in bad circles and have suffered from deep and long family issues come together in our premises to learn about life, relationships, career, growth. This has been one of the highlights for HIANA, seeing young people thrive.

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **Achievements and performance** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Arts and Creativity** 

In collaboration with Creative Eden, we facilitated a project the organisation launched under the Awards for All National Lottery fund they received.  HIANA provided the space needed to bring young people in the Oldbury area - including young content creators, and podcasters. We also partnered with BLBallers to organise a football seminar providing an opportunity for young people to network and interact with footballers and professionals within the football industry. This was an empowering experience for the young people in attendance. HIANA also facilitated seminars for the Sandwell Council's Public Health Department by giving them a space in HIANA House bi-weekly to discuss the menstrual cycle in the work environment and how they manage it, empowering the women who attend these seminars. We collaborated with Catch22 - A County lines organisation that works closely with the West Midlands Police. We facilitated their work in HIANA House, providing counselling for a lot of young kids that have gotten in trouble with the police or taken advantage of and groomed by gangs. Creative Eden's music studio was used with the help of sound engineers to channel their energy into making clean and inspirational music that doesn't promote violence, they were challenged to leave the streets and the gang culture. 

Similarly, we've partnered with West Midlands Violence reduction and Recovery and wellbeing - Drug and Alcohol to both facilitate their seminars and provide counselling to individuals and young people they connect us to, including giving them work experience where needed. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

The trustees plan to continue to impact the lives of young people and families as we have done in the past year, giving financial support, food donations, career advice, education and training, social events, entrepreneur spaces and the donations in Albania, Togo and Ghana. We also have some pipeline activities planned to enhance the work we do: 

## **Representation in Togo, Ghana, Malawi** 

We will be having a representative in Togo from the UK to advance the clean water project in Togo and other rural areas within West Africa - e.g Ghana. We aim to establish partnerships with other organisations to support and advance our work in west Africa more, this would be aided by our representative who would be travelling to Togo in the coming year. We also plan to take the little opportunities we have at HIANA to both support beneficiaries and volunteers who plan to travel to any part of West Africa and to give donations through them to the rural communities who they will be visiting when they travel. This helps to get household and clothing donations to those in need in the countries we support in a much more efficient way. The next travel project planned for the future would be to support rural communities in Malawi, taking the opportunity to support them as volunteers travel there for their own personal leisure but using the opportunity to give to those in need. We aim to help more people and develop more partnerships in Malawi.

## **Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report)** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **Plans for future periods** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Partnership with GAiN UK to provide clean water in Togo** 

We became official partners with GAiN UK to provide clean water in Togo! We plan to further the provision of clean water in the rural area in Togo and spread this project to other rural areas in countries in West Africa where the need for clean water is prominent. "Since 2002, GAiN has been providing rural villages with deep capped wells, ensuring fresh, clean water for their people.  They do this by drilling 50-80 metres down, tapping into the water supply and setting up a deep capped well." 

## **Water for Life Initiative - GAiN UK** 

Clean water in rural areas of West Africa is more than a basic necessity-it's the foundation of life and progress. It reduces preventable diseases, allowing children to attend school and families to focus on building a brighter future. It empowers women, who no longer have to walk miles in search of water, freeing their time for education, entrepreneurship, and community growth. With every drop, clean water fuels health, hope, and the possibility of a transformed generation. 

## **Training and entrepreneurship** 

We plan to partner with the locally skilled carpenter to provide training opportunities for young people in Sandwell and Birmingham to gain skills in carpentry. We believe this would open new doors of opportunity for young people to learn a new skill and build their confidence. 

## **Social Events** 

We have some social events for young people in the pipeline which would help bring out their creativity and talents. One of our key initiatives will be open mic nights, providing a platform for poets, singers, rappers, instrumentalists, and other creatives from across the area to showcase their skills and connect with a supportive audience. These events aim to foster artistic expression, celebrate diverse talents, and create a sense of community. Through these and other programs, we hope to encourage young people to explore their passions, develop new skills, and build a brighter future. 

The trustees believe that what we have been able to achieve in the past year from April 2023 to April 2024 wouldn't have been possible without our HIANA House, the help of our dedicated volunteers and our supportive partners, both individuals and organisations. The work that we've done we count as very important because the lives of young people and families are being impacted. We are committed to doing more for young people and families with the pipeline activities and collaborations we have for the coming year(s).

## **Company Limited by Guarantee** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024**

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

- income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably. 

- legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established. 

- income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers. 

- income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted. 

## **Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates: 

- expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods. 

- expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. 

- other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities. 

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis. 

## **Tangible assets** 

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

## **Company Limited by Guarantee** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Tangible assets** _**(continued)**_ 

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities.  A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities. 

## **Depreciation** 

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: 

## **Impairment of fixed assets** 

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. 

For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. 

For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. 

## **Financial instruments** 

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs. 

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. 

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. 

Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Year ended 4 April 2024** 

## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ 

## **Financial instruments** _**(continued)**_ 

Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. 

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised. 

For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. 

Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. 

## **Defined contribution plans** 

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. 

When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
