Directors' & Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

The trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act, present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Structure, Governance and Management

Governing Document

The Health Forum operating under 'BME Health Forum' is a company limited by guarantee and obtained charitable status from the Charity Commission on 10 May 2013. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

The Board delegates the day-to-day operation of the organisation to the Executive Director. The Trustees meet formally once every 3 months.

Recruitment & Appointment of Trustees

The Trustees and Directors who have served throughout the year are shown on page 1. Appointment of directors/trustees is governed by the Memorandum & Articles of Association.

Trustee Induction and Training

All new Board Members are introduced to current Board Members, and Receive an Induction pack which includes a Board Handbook. All Board Members participate in training on good governance.

Charitable Objectives

The preservation and protection of health and promotion of good health with a particular focus on, but not limited to, people from the black and minority ethnic communities, principally in, but not limited to, the London Boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea, Westminster and Hammersmith & Fulham. The aim of the forum is to inform policy, locally and nationally and assist in promulgating effective policies and good practice in order to contribute to reducing health inequalities and improved health outcomes for people from the black and minority ethnic communities.

Risk Management

The trustees review the major risks that the charity faces on a regular basis and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of policies and procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charitable company. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the charity.

Public Benefit

All our activities aim to reduce health inequalities and improve health and wellbeing outcomes for people from deprived communities and ensure that health and social policies and service development are informed by the views of local communities.

Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011

The trustees actively review guidance issued by the Charity Commission as required by section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, to ensure compliance with such guidance.

Activities and achievements

The trustees consider that the charity's activities in meeting its objectives have been most satisfactory during the year under review.

Future developments

Some funding has now been secured for the Charity's core activities for 2023/24. This is a good position but we need to continue to build on it to ensure we continue to deliver services for BME communities.

Summary

The BME Health Forum had a very successful year in 2023/24. We delivered 14 projects, including 12 partnerships. The projects delivered services, awareness and engagement opportunities for nearly 4 thousand Global Majority (GM) residents. Our projects focused on residents who are not fluent English speakers and were delivered in 9 community languages as well as English. We funded 15 Global Majority organisations a total of £205,020 and gave an additional £96,149 as grants to 12 organisations on behalf of the Royal Marsden. We recruited an additional member of staff, Mercyline Ndeti who is our Organisation Development Manager.

THE HEALTH FORUM

(Private Company Limited by Guarantee) Directors' & Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (Continued)

Summary (continued)

The work we do with our partners directly impacts the health and wellbeing of residents as we help remove the barriers that stop people accessing services such as lack of information and awareness, communication barriers, digital exclusion, no access to transport, culturally inappropriate services. We also provide the emotional and practical support that helps clients manage the other aspects of their lives from finances to housing. At the same time, a key focus of our work is systems change -we work with NHS and LA partners to remove the barriers faced by our clients at a system level.

Core Funding from the North West London ICB and Royal Borough Kensington & Chelsea

We are very grateful for the core funding we received which allows us to employ a member of staff and carry out a lot of our engagement work as well as fund some of our running costs. The funding covers the cost of our public meetings and this year we held 4 well attended meetings where we showcased the work of our partners from the suicide prevention project, cancer awareness projects, health advocacy, Staying Safe project and Winter Well campaign. We also had a number of presentations from NHS organisations and Local authorities, and we shared a lot of funding opportunities.

Our core funding also supports the work behind our weekly newsletter and website updates. We use the newsletter to advertise services, information campaigns, projects, events, jobs and funding opportunities on behalf of the NHS, our local community, the voluntary sector and statutory partners.

Our core funding allows for staff time to engage with NHS organisations such as Imperial Healthcare NHS Trust, Imperial College London, Chelsea and Westminster, Northwick Park, CLCH, CNWL and many others. We are happy with the work we have been doing to bring about systems change to improve the patient experience for Global Majority groups, focusing on language and communication barriers, digital exclusion, the need for advocacy and patient empowerment and involvement and how to support patients attend appointments.

THE HEALTH FORUM

Infrastructure Support

This project has begun very positively. In the 4 months since the project started, we have helped 7 organisations with their fundraising activities, resulting in 6 successful funding applications.

Partnerships

1) Awareness raising and engagement around barriers to accessing information and services:

We delivered 7 projects in partnership with 19 Global Majority organisations on Cancer, Safeguarding, suicide prevention and immunisation/accessing services in winter months. These projects reached a combined total of over 3000 residents. Many residents told us that they would now attend cancer screening and other services as a direct result of our work, that they are now aware of what cancer symptoms to look out for and that early diagnosis is important, that their understanding of suicide and safeguarding have improved and they would be willing to access services and signpost others to services when needed:

Staying Safe Project (funded by Biborough Adult Social Care Services, managed by the Advocacy Project)

We worked with 13 grassroots BME community organisations (including Al-Manaar Muslim Cultural Centre, AMET, Eritrean Welfare Association, French African Welfare Association, Hope Foundation, Iranian Association, Marylebone Bangladesh Society, Midaye Somali Development Network, Migrant Organise, Sudanese Community and Information Centre, Sudanese Supplementary School, WAND UK, and Westminster Bangladeshi Welfare Trust) which completed ‘’train the trainer’’ training about Safeguarding Adults. Eleven of these organisations delivered 12 workshops to their communities to inform them about safeguarding practice which were attended by 200 people. The workshops were delivered in different languages, including Arabic, French, Bengali, Farsi, Tigrinya and English.

Suicide Prevention project (funded by Rethink)

We worked with 4 GM organisations (AMET, ESDEG, The Iranian Association and the Sudanese Information and Advice Centre). The project raised awareness of suicide and mental health. Our partners engaged clients through surveys, workshops and events which focused on suicide awareness and promoting the mental health and wellbeing of their clients. They were attended by 116 clients. The survey revealed valuable insights about GM residents’ awareness and knowledge about suicide and where to find help and services. For more information about the survey findings please go to our website: www.bmehf.org.uk

Winter Campaign Project (funded by the ICB)

We worked with 5 GM organisations: Eritrean Welfare Association, ESDEG, Iranian Association, SW1Islamic Centre and Westminster Bangladeshi Welfare Trust, to deliver information to communities about NHS vaccination campaigns, how to stay well in winter and how to seek help when needed. Our survey was completed by 100 service users and gave information on barriers to accessing pharmacies, 111 and 999 services.

Cancer Screen, Detect and Protect Project (funded by the ICB- NHS)

We worked with 7 organisations (AMET, FORWARD, Middle Eastern Women and Society Organisation, Iranian Association, SW1 Islamic Centre, Sudanese Nubian Association, WAND UK). Collectively we delivered 46 workshops on bowel, breast, cervical, prostate and testicular cancers and screening programs engaging 2576 service users. The project collected feedback on barriers and concerns but also increased knowledge of cancer symptoms and screening.

Health Screening Project (funded by the ICB-NHS)

We worked with 4 GM organisations (AMET, ESDEG, Ethiopian Women’s Empowerment Group, and the Iranian Association) to engage with 102 residents about the barriers to accessing health screening.

Cancer Awareness: Communication & Awareness Projects (funded by the Royal Marsden, NHS Trust)

We worked with 5 GM organisations (AMET, ESDEG, Iranian Association, SW1 Islamic Centre & Westminster Bangladeshi Welfare Trust) to deliver 2 projects. The first project engaged with 60 service users to hear about concerns and interest regarding cancer and screening programs and the second project delivered 10 workshops with 157 participants to deliver information and collect feedback and concerns. Participants said that they were much more likely to attend screening and encourage families to attend now that they understood more about the programs.

2)Delivering support services to residents from Global Majority groups

We helped nearly 600 residents with support services in 5 projects delivered by 8 organisations. The projects made a marked difference to residents, helping them access essential services, removing barriers to services based on language, digital exclusion, and cultural differences, supporting them to know their rights, access financial support and improving their emotional wellbeing and general health. All projects focused on residents who are not fluent English speakers, and projects were delivered in Amharic, Arabic, Farsi, French, Lingala, Sorani, Sylheti and Tigrinia.

(Private Company Limited by Guarantee) Directors' & Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (Continued)

Community Living Well (funded by the ICB-NHS, managed by KCSC).

We worked with 4 GM organisations (Al-Hasaniya Moroccan Women’s network, French African Welfare Association, Iranian Association, Midaye Somali Development Network) to support 89 clients registered with GPs in Kensington & Chelsea and North Westminster. We delivered 469 emotional wellbeing peer-support sessions to clients who speak little or no English. Clients reported an increase in Emotional Wellbeing of approximately 90%.

Grenfell mental wellbeing project (funded by the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea)

We worked with 5 GM organisations (Al-Hasaniya Moroccan Women’s Centre, Eritrean Welfare Association, Ethiopian Women’s Empowerment Group, French African Welfare Association and Midaye Somali Development Network) to support 43 clients and spent 386 hours of support. Clients reported an improvement in their general health of 22% and an improvement in their emotional wellbeing of 19%.

Health Advocacy Project (funded by the National Lottery)

This project contributes directly to reducing health inequalities by removing barriers to accessing services and supporting clients to make the best use of NHS services. We worked with 6 organisations (Al-Hasaniya Moroccan Women’s Centre, Ethiopian Women’s Empowerment Group, French African Welfare Trust, Iranian Association, Marylebone Bangladesh Society and Midaye Somali Development Network) to support 339 residents who speak little or no English access services satisfactorily. The project improved clients’ access to health services, supported clients to access interpreters, helped clients advocate for the care they needed and overcome institutional barriers, and supported clients access transport for medical appointments. We also worked with the ICB, GP federations and hospital trusts to highlight the barriers clients face and get commitments to systems change.

On the Breadline Multi-Lingual Emotional Wellbeing Project (funded by Comic Relief)

We worked with 4 GM organisations (Al-Hasaniya Moroccan Women’s network, Iranian Association, Midaye Somali Development Network, Middle Eastern Women and Society organisation) to support 90 clients facing financial difficulties, with emotional support and practical help over the cost-of-living crisis. Clients reported an average increase in Emotional Wellbeing of 66% and an average increase in general health of 52%.

Together for London Project (funded by the London Community Fund)

We worked with 3 GM organisations (Ethiopian Women’s Empowerment Group, Marylebone Bangladesh Society and Middle Eastern Women’s Society Organisation) to support 36 clients with 1:1 support around mental health, welfare benefits and other support.

THE HEALTH FORUM (Private Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 March 2024

Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of financial statements are as follows

Basis of Preparation

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the micro entity provisions of the Companies Act 2006 and FRS105, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable to Micro-Entities Regime. The accounts have been delivered in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

Incoming resources

Income (including income from government and other grants) is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the items of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Interest and investment income receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit and income from investments held is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliable by the charity.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations or grants which the donor has specified are to be solely used for a particular purpose or area of the Trust's work or projects being undertaken by the Trust.

Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following headings:

-cost of raising funds comprise the cost of commercial trading

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure has been incurred.

Taxation

As a grant aided charity with charitable status the charity's activities do not create a charge to corporation tax.

Operating leases

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.

Financial instruments

The trust has only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. The charity does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments. The main form of financial risk faced by the charity is that of volatility in equity and investment markets due to wider economic conditions, the attitude of investors to risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities.

Pensions

The Trust operates a defined contribution pension scheme.
