Aims and objectives
Summary of the main achievements during the period
This year there have been a number of achievements. Despite some financial constraints we have successfully delivered more projects than before.
-
1) Service user has capacity increased we have over 200 new services users participating or engaging in our activities.
-
2) There is a continued majority of more young people engaged from projects in schools and other community centres.
-
3) Over 1000 service users have come into contact with SHAPE-UK LTD.
-
.
-
4) Since 2014 we have worked with the Armed Forces. This year progress has still been gradual but continues to improve.
-
5) We continue to enjoy our partnership with the Armed Forces (AF). In particular our local AF unit 4 Brigade (North-East) at Catterick who provide volunteers to deliver character and team building activities

-
6) We continue to work with partners such as Bradford Council and Education Bradford.
-
7) This year we have been successful in establishing the Bradford Commonwealth War Memorial for the Commonwealth contribution. SHAPE-UK’s Director Naz Hussain initiated and coordinated this project over the last almost 7 years. With permission being granted for the establishment of the War memorial in November 2021. This has opened opportunities to other large projects especially within diversity, inclusion and engagement prospects as well as in the field of recognition in respect of war memorials.
-
8) We have continued to bring in successful funding and have secured further funding and contracts building on the success of previous project delivery. This has been a good result from the committee members and maintaining contact with Bradford Community Voluntary Sector Services who partners who we can network with to deliver our service and even more confidence from the community.
Positive work and good publicity are being maintained we have had 2 new volunteers coming to work with SHAPE-UK that has benefited us in accommodating the rising demand of our services and we continue networking with more organisations to deliver joint community projects. Although we aim to do bring in more staff and income to satisfy the needs of an ever increasing number of service users due to the austerity measures and rising cost of living. Through the contracts we have gained we hope to be employing more full-time staff to deliver our community projects.
Additional Notes pertaining to Accounts:
These accounts were prepared with the grants and contributions that were offered and agreed with funders. This is the first year since the damaging impact of COVID 19 that we have been able to provide more services and save funds that could be employed elsewhere for emergencies. Income generation has improved but is continuously followed by expenditure.

SHAPE-UK LTD is not currently operating to a financial capacity whereby external scrutiny could be obligated. As such it is under no statutory obligation to prepare accounts in any prescribed format or to undergo any kind of external scrutiny. However, the management committee, as a matter of good practice require the accounts to be subject to a form of external inspection by an independent community organisation. On this occasion we have had to refer our accounts to an alternative organization due to the delay caused by our usual ‘go to’ organization to help assess our accounts.
These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the books, records, information and explanations by SHAPE-UK LTD. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit. However we have satisfied the assessors of this report that in their opinion these accounts and report represent a "true and fair view" and are limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Statement.
No matter has come to our attention:
1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirement to keep proper accounting records and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records have not been met;
or
2) To which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts reached.
Special Circumstances to be noted:
These accounts are for the accounting period between 1[st] April 2023 and 31[st] March 2024 for which funds were allocated to SHAPE-UK LTD by various funders. The accounts were ratified by an independent organisation (as above) prior to being submitted as completed accounts for the above said period.
