Achievements and performance
AdvlLe
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our fTontliiie work. At the start of first lockdown, we began
takiiig on clients Temotely, ratlier than WOTkingF face-to-face. Thi5 presented SOTne logFistical difficulties, made it
harder to biiild t[￿still￿￿ relationships, and resulted in ca5ewoTk taking longer. HoH'ever, we fouiid that M'e were
able to take on clients from anywhere in Eiiglaiid, aiid in stsme ways, it Tnade the service more accessible as clients
did not have to travel or find childcare to attend appointh)ents.
The frontline service worked with 260 families: including taking on 159 new clients. 87Q/o were woinen and 65Q/o
were lone pareiits. 97Q/D were Black or from other ininoritised ethnic groups.
54% of clients were undOcumen￿d when they approached us. and 30/0 had limited leave on human rights grounds
wilh no recourse to public funds (NRPF).
Our clients were based in 45 local authorities across England, including 23 councils outside London.
57% of clienis had already asked a local authority for support before they approached us. Of those. 72/0 had been
completely refused support. Those refused support reported noi having enough money for basic essentials: living
in inadequaie housing or facing street homelessness,. experiencing threats to safery and domestic abuse.
When Projecr 17 referred families for support they still experienced problems, including delays in accessing
suppon and assessments, being told to rely on friends and famil}, or being told thai no support was available. Some
also experienced aggression from local authoriry staff. and had iheir credibiliry attacked.
80010 of families received some kind of siipport following our intervention. 430/0 received help from Project 17's
own Destitution Fiind, foodbank vouchers, graiits, an￿or destitution suppon in kiiid. IOO/o were granted leave to
remain and 250/0 were granted recoiirse to public funds while we were working with them. 430/0 accessed
subsistence under section 17, and 420/0 accessed accoinmodation. Other positive outcomes incliided access to free
school meals, nursery and health access, National Referral Mechanism support and asylum support.
70Q/o of clients reported difficulties relatin¥ to COVID-19. Tlie most commoii issues were reduced suppon from
frieiids and family (370/0).. Ios5 of einploymeiit (25Q/ol, and difficulty accessing eiiough food (16Q/DI. 49Q/D said they
'ould face 5i¥nificant barrier5 if they iieeded to self-isolate. Tlie Tnost comtnoii baTrier Tha5 lack of adequate
Space. Many parent5 reported tliat cliildren were not able to keep up with schoolwork, lar¥ely because of a lack of
a coniputer, iiiteniet access, or space.
Cfjpucity buildinx
Prior to the first COVID-19 lockdown, all oui training was delivered face to face. We paused training from March
to Julie 2020, and theii moved our se55itsns online. We delivered 12 online sessions over tl)e course of the year: to
round 400 partiLipant5. 99Q/D of PilrtlLipaiit5 rated the ttaiiiing 'excellent' or 'good', aiid 88Q/o rated their
knowled¥e after the training as 'excellent' or'good,.
The voluTne of calls to our telepl)one advice line for professionals increased by 47% on last year to 456 calls. 2 lQ/o
of calls involved additional support. including checkints referrals, sendin¥ letter templates or other resources. 80Q/o
of callers said the advice line was 'very helpful. and a further 14°/0 said li was 'a bit helpful..
We began an overhaul of our online resliurces, which is continuing into next year and will include a revamp of our
websiie and more accessible materials for individuals and advisers.

Slrulegic cliunge
Our siratsgic work pivotsd in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, recognising the disproportionaie impact the
pandemic and accompanying restrictions have had on people excluded from mainstream ￿'elfare.
In Maj. 2020, Project 17 acted as intervener on the case of R{W, A Child By His Litigation Friend J) v SSHD &
Anor120201 EWHC I?99, ajudicial review challenging the lawfulness of the Home Office's NRPF policy on the
basis Ihat it caused vulnerable people to become destitute. Our intervention provided evidence thai the NRPF
policy puts families with NRPF at risk of desiitution, and thai the support provided by local authorities under s.17
is not an adeqiiate safety net to prevent dcstitiition. We were also able to use our evidence base to highlight the
increased risk to dcstitution caused by COVID-19 and the accoinpaiiyin(T restrictions. The case was successful.
The coiirt accepted that the NRPF policy did not give effect to the Home Office s obligations under Article 3
ECHR.. it did not prevent destitution.
Project 17 also supported strategic litigation which has successfully extended free school meals, early nursery
places and pupil preiniuins to niost (although not all) families with NRPF, supporting clients to act as clainiants
and providing witness evidence.
The COVID-19 pandemic l)as brou¥ht a new Iiational focus to NRPF. More or¥ani5ations are working 011 NRPF
thali iii previous )'ears, with Citizen'5 Advice, JCIN'I, The Children's Society aiid other5 brintsing their platfoTms
and Lonnections to the i55ue. We hiive worked L105ely with these or¥ani5atlOTiS diid other5, feedin¥ in our niche
expertise and experience, addiii¥ depth and specificity to the Sector's messaging. This l)as had impaLt, with
parliamentary quesiions. deba￿S and public campaigns starting ￿ lake shape.
On a local level, Newham signed up to our Children s Charter. demonsiraiing a commitment io centring children's
needs and views in the s.17 process. Lewisham also applied bui, on reviewing our cases and speaking to other
organisations in the area we did not feel thai they were upholding Ihe siandards in the charter. We are now meeiing
with them 10 discuss posiiive changes they can make.
We have secured additional funding to support and resource a group of people affecied by NRPF who are
interested in creating strategic change. We are in Ihe initial stsges of recruiting members, but over time we hope
the group will set its own polic}, priorities, feed into and eventually lead our wider strategic work.
Financial revie
N0￿.ith5tandinS the challenging economic environn)ent presented by the COVID-19 pandeTnic, Project 17's

Poliry on reserves
Project 17's reserve policy 5tate5 tliat unrestricted fund5, which have not been designated for a specific use, should
be maintained at a level equivalent to three to six months of expei)diture. At this level the Trustees feel the reserves

unfoieseen loss ol. fui)ding or unforeseen expenditure beii)g incutred, and are sufficient to cover associated
expenditure con)mitments were Pioject 17 to be wout)d dowt). The reserves policy is reviewed by the Trustees on
a iegular basis, at least once a year.
