## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

Under a Christian ethos: 

1. To further or benefit the residents of East Bowling, Bradford, West Yorkshire and the surrounding south Bradford area, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents. In furtherance of these objects but not otherwise, the trustees shall have power: to establish or secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a centre for activities promoted by the charity in furtherance of the above objects; 

2. To relieve the needs of elderly people, in particular but not exclusively by the provision of day care facilities and a lunch club; 

3. To advance the education of babies and young children, in particular but not exclusively by offering appropriate play facilities and courses for the children and their families. 

## **The charity's main activities** 

The aim of BD4 CT is to support and restore community across the generations. This work is split into two projects, each of which contributes to the aim of improving the quality of life for the residents of the BD4 postcode area in Bradford. 

The BD4 Family project strongly focuses on working with families with pre-school children and provides sessions each week through term time to support families by providing a place to meet other people, participate in activities, get training and advice, and be encouraged to find out what is available to them and how to access it. There is also the offer of one-to-one support sessions in the home to individual parents and carers according to their needs. 

The Gems project works with the older members of our community delivering a variety of activities each week with additional activities at times throughout the year. The project provides opportunities for older people to make friends, participate in healthy activities, learn a new skill, enjoy a nutritional meal, and enjoy day trips. 

Both projects are supported by two Activity Leads, whose responsibilities include smooth delivery of services and a coordinated response to the needs of the community. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of education. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

We have seen another productive year at BD4 Community Trust, with changes in our staffing structure and delivery. Our work with the Department for Education under their Start for Life programme came to an end in March 2025. Whereas our work within the Core20Plus5 NHS initiative to help reduce inequalities in maternity care in the Bradford 4 area has just been agreed for another year. We have 5 paid staff, comprising 2 full-time and 3 part-time staff, as well as 12 highly valued volunteers and 2 sessional workers who deliver our physical activity sessions. Our team is committed to ensuring the smooth delivery of services to meet our vision and aims as a charity and to providing the best service we can to our service users and wider community. 

We are joint community anchors for our local area partnership. Working alongside council development teams, primary care trusts and other health professionals and community organisational leads.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

Through consultation and community engagement, we deliver services specifically to help meet the complex needs of adult service users, which support them with their mental and emotional health through physical activity. These services are a Steady Swim group at a local swimming pool; a Walking Group, getting out and about in local green spaces; and two Fitness Classes within the local gym. All these sessions are free for adults to attend and are led by qualified fitness & swimming instructors. 

Our CEO is responsible for the line management of the Start for Life Coproduction Coordinator in Bradford. This is a government-funded post and was created in collaboration with the DFE. Our Coproduction Coordinator exists to be the bridge between statutory early years provision and community-led EYS organisations. Their role is to work with parents of children aged 0 - 2 years and find out their views, opinions and hopes for the provision of early years services district-wide and identify gaps and marginalised groups. 

The BD4 Family continues to offer a diverse range of activities: 

1. **Family Links Nurturing Course**: This programme collaborates with local primary schools to encourage parents to attend and learn strategies for managing the challenges of parenting and family life. 

2. **HENRY Parenting Programme**: Designed to support parents of younger children, this programme encourages families to adopt healthier lifestyles and make better choices for their well-being. Both programmes are nationally recognized. 

3. **First Friends**: A support and friendship group for families with children under one year old, offering messy and sensory play activities alongside breastfeeding and peer support services. 

_4. **Health Visiting Clinic**: We have partnered with our local Health Visiting team to provide services for parents with children aged 0 - 5 years. This clinic offers parents the chance to meet with a Health Visitor in a community setting for advice, support, baby weighing, and measuring, as well as referrals to other statutory services when needed._ 

5. **Infant Massage**: An International Association of Infant Massage-approved programme, this five-week course promotes healthy physical and emotional development, as well as stronger bonding and attachment between parents and their babies. 

6. **Tots Unlimited**: A school preparation group that creates stimulating and engaging environments for children to learn through play and exploration, with their parents or carers. Children also benefit from visits to museums and other community locations to enhance their understanding of the world. 

7. **Stay & Learn Sessions**: Held three times a week, these sessions provide free play and exploration opportunities for preschool-aged children, while helping parents and carers acquire new skills and positive role modelling strategies to ensure a strong start in family life. 

8. **Garden Gang**: Our intergenerational group, which engages individuals of all ages in learning new skills related to growing fruits and vegetables. Participants take part in activities within local green spaces and explore the surrounding natural habitats. 

Through additional funding from the Core20Plus5 strategy in Bradford, we have developed and created a new group, specifically for pregnant families in the Bradford 4 area to support with antenatal education and emotional resilience and health. Working in partnership with public sector providers and other health professionals. 

The Gems project has successfully expanded its timetable of trips and outings, offering more diverse opportunities for service users to benefit from and enjoy. We provide a variety of services for older individuals, including weekly gentle exercise classes, indoor bowls, well-being sessions, nutritious lunches, beauty treatments, day trips, well-being walks, and a coffee and chat group.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

Our team members are trained as Dementia Friendly volunteers and have received Mental Health First Aid training. We now offer dementia-friendly activities for our more vulnerable members to promote engagement and a sense of belonging. 

Additionally, we have partnered with a local taxi service to provide a door-to-door collection service, making it easier for individuals with mobility issues to access lunch and other services. 

Throughout the year, we have supported 40 to 60 older people weekly, the majority of whom are between 70 and 90+ years of age. Our work focuses on providing close support to older individuals, helping them maintain control over their lives and stay independent for as long as possible. We aim to reduce isolation among older members of our community by creating a social and caring environment, fostering opportunities for them to reconnect with their communities. 

As well as delivering sessions aimed at bringing families and older people together, we continue to put on events throughout the year, such as live vocalist sessions and sing-alongs, and afternoon tea events. These are great opportunities to bring all ages from the two projects together. 

Both projects have been able to offer end-of-year summer trips. BD4 Family took over 40 families to Scarborough, and our Gems project visited Southport, with 60 older people attending. 

## **Future Developments for April 2025 – March 2026** 

We are looking to recruit a new part-time BD4 CT Support Worker to assist our Leads in delivering our weekly sessions smoothly and to help meet the increasing demand for our services. We are in the process of establishing two new groups: one will support families in fostering positive relationships using strategies developed from the Family Links nurturing programme and the Henry course. The other will be a follow-on group from our Baby Circles session, designed for parents whose babies are over six months old, allowing them to access a supportive network and feel cared for while their emotional and social needs are addressed through peer support. 

Additionally, we are training one of our existing volunteers to lead a peer network for bereavement support. This network will help individuals who have recently experienced a loss or those who simply need a space to share stories and memories of their loved ones. We aim to launch this initiative before the Autumn term begins. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the year was £24,637, including net income of £17,867 on unrestricted funds and net income of £6,770 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £69,081. 

The Trustees have reviewed the charity's need for reserves in line with guidance issued by the Charities Commission and consider it prudent that free, unrestricted reserves of between 3 and 6 months of running costs (between £41,800 and £83,500 based on budgeted 2025/2026 expenditure) are retained both to enable the smooth running of the charity and to allow for an orderly winding up should that become necessary.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial 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. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of BD4 Community Trust Limited 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 8 to 14. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
