## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## **Objectives and activities** 

Our vision is to improve the quality of life for disadvantaged, isolated and marginalised Somali refugees, migrants and other minority ethnic communities, covering all age groups and sexes, ensuring people are given equal rights to education, health and well-being, living conditions, legal justice, recreational and adequate economic advancement. 

We do this by: 

- Providing generalist information and advice to our service users that will enable them to become more 

- aware of their rights and better informed about the services available to them and how to access them. 

- Supporting the most vulnerable in our community through befriending, mentoring and advocacy as 

- necessary. 

- Providing classes to adults to help them to overcome barriers, increase their skills, integrate fully into 

- society and increase their self-confidence in the process. 

- Providing supplementary education to children and young people that complements their mainstream 

- education and provides a greater level of support. 

- Encouraging and arranging regular consultation sessions for our service users to contribute and assist in 

- the planning, development and delivery of new and existing services and projects. 

- Encouraging all members within the community to express their needs and help themselves study and 

- build their skills, in order to gain employment and so create a better future for their families. 

- Encouraging and supporting women to become empowered and achieve their full potential to become 

- more active and confident members of society. 

- Liaising and working with other organisations and groups which have the same or similar purpose as our 

- own to achieve a common goal and increase our capacity. 

- Supporting the involvement, personal and professional growth of our volunteers. 

## **General overview** 

Our first full year of services without COVID-related disruptions since 2018/2019 was an exceptionally busy one as we worked hard to stretch ourselves and rise to the challenges that the post-COVID world has thrown at our communities and at us as an organisation. We believe that we have matured and grown as an organisation; adapting and learning as we’ve journeyed alongside our service-users and creating new and innovative ways of supporting those that we exist to help. 

Some of the highlights from this year included: 

- The growth of our mental health and wellbeing work, primarily through the work of our Journey of Hope 

- project (Comic Relief). 

- Increased focus on physical activity and expansion of our physical activity offering. 

- Growth into Fulham (Hammersmith & Fulham) and Church Street (Westminster) areas. This included the development of 2 new peer support groups in Fulham based at the Sands End Arts & Community Centre and at the Fulham Masjid. 

- The continued growth of our lived experience pathways into employment and empowerment. 

The post-COVID landscape has been dominated by overwhelming pressure on health, care and other social support systems and on the insidious cost-of-living crisis. The ramifications of these issues have been less adrenalin-inducing than a lockdown but have, in many ways, been just as harmful. We have been witness to alarming increases in mental health concerns, domestic abuse, anxiety and hopelessness within the communities that we support. We are acutely aware of the need to develop long-term, sustainable, high-impact solutions to these concerns which will also demand a fundamental shift in the way services are delivered to our communities, on the one hand, and the way we work with our communities to empower and enable them, on the other.

## **MIDAYE SOMALI DEVELOPMENT NETWORK** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

There is an ever-growing need for statutory decision makers to pay serious attention to disrupting existing patterns of service delivery in favour of community-led, community-created solutions which rely on community assets and knowledge to ensure high levels of impact. We are working hard, together with our partners, to drive this kind of change within our sphere of influence and we are delighted that we are slowly starting to see more and more momentum in this work. 

As we do every year, it is necessary and a matter of first importance to pay tribute to the exceptional individuals that make up our team of staff and volunteers. The compassion and dedication that this team demonstrate on a daily basis is extraordinary and every success and good testimony has to be credited to their remarkable efforts. We are also incredibly grateful to the ongoing support of our funders and partners without whom we would be unable to help our communities the way we do. 

The last few years have given us the opportunity to grow and stretch ourselves. We continue to position ourselves effectively to respond to the needs of our communities in the coming years. In particular, we have seen in recent months many of the origin countries of those that we support being rocked by tragedy: wars and political instability in Palestine, Sudan, Syria and Yemen, earthquakes in Morocco and Afghanistan, floods in Libya. These circumstances may seem a world away from many of us but they have an immediate and deep effect on those that have close ties to these places. We continue to develop ourselves so that we are best placed to meet these challenges head on.

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## **Project reports** 

## _SUPPORT AND OUTREACH PROJECTS_ 

Bilingual Carer Support: The carer support work was a small part of a larger grant funding partnership between Hodan Somali Community and Dadihiye Somali Development Organisation focused on providing befriending and support to elderly members of our community. Whilst this project largely came to an end in 2021, the carer support work for which we receive a small pot of funding and which is shared evenly between the three partners continues. 

This service enables carers to access the support they need to reduce isolation and improve activity levels through signposting and befriending. 

Drop-in (Outreach, Information & Support Service): This is Midaye’s core community-led service. The service is typically available four days a week, with dozens of clients making use of it every week. The scope and range of topics we deal with are diverse and sensitive, and the number of clients accessing the service has increased immensely. During the session, clients receive one-to-one support and are referred or accompanied to other specialist services when needed. 

Previous funding from the Lloyds Bank Foundation to improve our Drop-in service was partially repurposed to support the organisation during the COVID pandemic and the acquisition of the AQS quality mark was put on hold. This will be picked up again in the 2023/24 financial year. 

We also established a very productive working arrangement with Citizens’ Advice Hammersmith & Fulham in which we are provided with two dedicated sessions with an advisor every week. We book clients into these sessions in advance. We have been very pleased with the outcomes of this initiative. This arrangement is partly funded by W12 Together. 

Funding for this project is provided by the VSSF from RBKC (delivered in partnership with Hodan Somali Community and Dadihiye Somali Development Organisation and the BME Health Forum). 

Family Well-being Service: This project began in September 2017 and supports families in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC). We offer intensive wrap around support for BME families with English as a second language. We support families to access ESOL classes, parenting support, health services, educational outreach support and the local children’s centre. We work closely with early help teams, social care services and promote children’s centre services. The main objective of this service is to improve the parents' self-esteem, eliminate isolation and improve the families' wellbeing. This enables them to better access their local services and understand and work with local service providers. 

Over the course of this financial year, we supported 27 families. Each family is supported for a period of 3-6 months or longer, if necessary. 

Expanded Family Well-being Service: Funding from Trust House Charitable Foundation has enabled us to expand our Family Wellbeing Service to clients and families from outside RBKC. This project has also enabled us to offer direct interventions to young people, including peer support groups, football and emotional wellbeing support.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

Navigate: Young BME Engagement Project: Navigate is an initiative to engage with young BME men and women living in the Grenfell-affected area in North Kensington and its surrounds. We provide mentoring, opportunities and forums for young people to encourage their growth and development. This was an exceptionally important service during the pandemic and we worked hard to engage with young people, encourage their continued involvement and give them opportunities to share their ideas and opinions. This evolved into the development of a debate club as well as some social media internships at Midaye. We continue to be very encouraged by the choices and personal growth of a number of the young people that we have been engaging with. This project came to an end in December 2022 having facilitated a significant development in our work with young people over the preceding three years. We are very pleased with the foundations we have laid and the momentum we have generated through this work. 

Parent & Carer Champions: We received a third tranche of funding from the MOPAC VRU as a nominated partner of the local authority to deliver training to develop a cohort of local parents and carers who would champion a movement to end youth crime and violence in their local neighbourhoods. We continued to work closely with our trained volunteers, supporting them to work effectively in their communities and drive a community-wide response to these concerning issues. 

Hope Project (Community Based Mental Health and Emotional Well-Being Support Pilot): We were one of two successful applicants for this MOPAC VRU initiative which aims to provide mental wellbeing intervention for parents and carers of children who are at risk. We are providing peer support, one-to-one support and community counselling for suitable candidates. This project dovetails well with our Journey of Hope project and the Parent & Carer Champion Project and has provided lots of opportunities for learning. MOPAC VRU are hoping that the learning from this project will result in wider funding for similar work across London. The project was meant to end in May 2023 but has now been extended until January 2024. 

Westminster Winter Support:  The City of Westminster local authority provided us with funding to offer a warm space, a hot meal and an opportunity to connect with others and receive information and advice. This work was carried out during the winter months of 2022/2023 and was critical in supporting vulnerable service users facing exceptional difficulty during the colder months. 

## _HEALTH & WELL-BEING PROJECTS_ 

Community Living Well Service: This service is similar to the Emotional Well-being Service but is a little more intensive and is intended for those requiring more support. We deliver up to 6 sessions of one-to-one, face-to-face emotional well-being support for RBKC residents. Most of the clients supported through this project speak English as a second language. The main focus is to walk clients through specified processes and objectives, attending appointments and meetings with them, whilst providing them with emotional well-being support, enabling them to access mental health and other local services. 

FGM Advocacy Project: Midaye continued to provide advocacy and support for victims of FGM at multi-agency FGM clinics in three hospitals: St. Mary’s Hospital, Queen Charlotte’s Hospital, and Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. Women that access these clinics primarily, but not exclusively, come from Kensington and Chelsea, Westminster, Hammersmith and Fulham, Brent, Ealing, and Wandsworth. Midaye’s health advocates also supported social workers with home visits and risk assessments. 

P&ACT Partnership: FGM This project is a significant collaboration with a large number of partners from the London Violence Against Women and Girls Consortium. Midaye focuses on the provision of support to survivors of FGM, training and awareness raising in the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and the City of Westminster. Survivors are provided with extensive one-to-one support which includes emotional wellbeing support and practical support. This project has been renewed for a further period until March 2025.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

Together for Grenfell Project: The Together for Grenfell project began in April 2018 with the intention of providing emotional and mental well-being support to the Grenfell-effected community in Kensington and Chelsea at a grassroots level. It has now been renewed until March 2024. Midaye provides both one-on-one support and peer support groups for clients. Prior to the pandemic, group meetings would often revolve around a communal activity such as gardening or cooking with empowerment, confidence-building and social network development as a primary objective. Peer support is a key part of this project and a number of groups are delivered each week. One-on-one support takes the form of ongoing coaching and mentoring with community counselling forming another key component. 

Self-care: Mind & Body: We received funding from the RBKC local authority as a provider of Grenfell wellbeing support (the Together for Grenfell project) to offer additional wellbeing support over the period building up to the Grenfell fire anniversary in 2022. Over a 6 week period, we provided pampering sessions for local residents and space for them to receive support and an opportunity to talk. 

Health gateway: This project is designed to provide information and support to community members needing help with healthcare concerns and access to healthcare services. It includes advice, signposting, advocacy and workshops. Funding for this work was provided by the Imperial Health Charity. This project came to an end in May 2022. 

Journey of Hope: This significant project is funded by the Comic Relief Changemakers fund. It will form a flagship project for us over the next three years. The project is intended to develop and evidence a community-based mental healthcare model that provides an effective pathway for delivering mental health support for BME communities focusing on women from the community, that speak English as an additional language. A large portion of this project is focused on effectively assessing our work and measuring its impact. Working closely with women from the community and taking the lead on developing mental health service that work well for them.  We work with local partners, NHS Mental health service, as well as a number of grassroots community organisations to train and develop similar models of community led work. 

Health mentoring: This project was funded by BME Health Forum and provides one-to-one support, goal setting and mentoring for BME community members looking to proactively improve their health and wellbeing through positive lifestyle choices. 

Vaccine Project: Midaye received funding from the Kensington & Chelsea Social Council (for RBKC residents) and from OneWestminster (for Westminster residents) to provide activities and information intended to improve vaccine acceptance and uptake. We worked hard to establish regular activities which provided our service users with the necessary information and supported them with their health needs whilst bringing them together and providing them with social and peer support. Whilst originally running from April to July, additional funding was received from KCSC to continue the work in RBKC for an additional period. Both of these funds have now ended. 

Grenfell Health Project: The BME Health Forum provided us with funding to provide 8 individuals, who had been significantly impacted by the Grenfell tragedy, with long-term one-to-one support. 

Active & Connected: We applied to Sports England for funds to support our increasing focus on physical activity as a necessary and important aspect of personal health and wellbeing development (both physically and mentally) and received funds to provide a wide range of physical activities to girls and women for a year. These funds have supported walking groups, swimming, exercise classes and others and have allowed us to ensure that a much larger proportion of our regular service users are being supported to increase their weekly physical activity by an appreciable amount.

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## _DEVELOPMENT & EDUCATION PROJECTS_ 

Education Support: This service benefits families in RBKC, Hammersmith and Fulham, and Westminster. We work closely with social services and Early Help to provide holistic support to families with school-aged children. Our support enables parents to have a better understanding of the British education system, and helps them improve their relationship with their children’s schools and teachers. After a short absence of funding, we were able to pick this project up again with new funding from BBC Children in Need. 

Supplementary School: Midaye’s Supplementary School was initiated in 2002, to create an environment of education support for children and families facing great difficulties in understanding and integrating with the British education system due to language and cultural barriers. Feedback from parents indicate that children love attending the school and that it has had a significant impact on the children’s education experience, their grades and quality of school work, and their confidence. New funding from BBC Children in Need has enabled this work to continue in White City. 

We reach and actively support over 40 children between the ages of 6 and 17 on a weekly basis. We also offer training to teachers and volunteers to ensure our ethos of effective teaching is met. In addition, we deliver more classes and sessions to ensure that we meet the educational support needs of children from the school. 

## _COVID & MISCELLANEOUS FUNDING_ 

Funds for delivering services and supporting the organisation during the pandemic were secured from a number of funders. 

London Community Response Fund – Wave 5 For the funding of staff salaries for staff members who are focused on assessing community need and finding solutions to these needs as we emerged from the pandemic. 

Lived Experience: A significant and exciting project to leverage lived experience amongst our community members, staff and volunteers, providing candidates with additional training and empowerment in order to enhance our reliance on and use of lived experience as an organisation and to release greater levels of lived experience leadership into the community. 

## **Financial Review**

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is the charity's policy to hold reserves to ensure it can meet its operational and project financial liabilities for a period of at least three months, without obtaining additional funding. 

The current reserves policy is formally reviewed and monitored by the trustees at its annual trustee meeting to ensure the policy still achieves the required levels of financial cover. 

The reserves target will be reviewed and adjusted in response to internal and external changes. The target minimum is equal to three months of average operating costs. 

The calculation of average monthly operating costs includes all recurring, predictable expanses such as salaries and benefits, occupancy, office and programme expenses. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses are not included in the calculation. The amount of the reserves target will be calculated each year after approval of the annual budget, reported to the Board of Trustees and included in the annual financial statements. Reserves will be funded and available in cash or cash equivalent funds. 

The target for the year ended 31 March 2023 was £120,000.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

The Trustees, who are also the directors of Midaye Somali Development Network for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year. 

In preparing these accounts, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 

- prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will 

- continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

Each of the Trustees confirms that: 

- so far as the Trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's independent 

- examiner is unaware; 

- the Trustee has taken all the steps that he/she ought to have taken as a Trustee in order to make 

- himself/herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity's independent examiner is aware of that information. 

This confirmation is given and should be interpreted in accordance with the provisions of s418 of the Companies Act. 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT** 

## **TO THE MEMBERS OF MIDAYE SOMALI DEVELOPMENT NETWORK** 

I report on the financial statements of the Midaye Somali Development Network, which are set out on pages 11 to 24. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees, who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 

- 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

- state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, section 386; and 

**·** to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 section 386 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

## **12. Going Concern** 

The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.  The Trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. The charity is largely sheltered from the expected effects of the cost-of-living crisis and significant international events as the income is based mainly on grants received.  The Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future and therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
