NEWDAY UNITED (Charity number 1154744) 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

## **Trustees** 

The trustees who served during the period and up to the date of this report are shown on page 1. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## **Governing Document** 

The organisation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), established in November 2013 by a Constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation whose only voting members are its charity trustees. 

## **Policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees** 

The members of the CIO are its charity trustees. The appointment of new members/trustees is a matter for the whole board. The board would give due consideration to the induction required for any new directors or trustees, but the current procedure is detailed below. 

All trustees receive the following when considering joining the board: 

1. The charity’s governing document: The NewDay United CIO Constitution, including the clause on conflicts of interest 

2. An e-copy of ‘The Essential Trustee’ PDF by the Charity Commission 

3. A ‘NewDay Trustee’ PowerPoint (as a basis for discussion on what we ask of our Trustees) 

4. Details of available trustee training courses run by the NCVO or FSI are sent to trustees regularly, should they be available to attend 

5. Minutes of recent trustee meetings 

6. A copy of the latest Trustees’ Annual Report and Statement of Accounts 

7. Any current key documents relevant to NewDay United 

The Board of Trustees meets formally at least four times per year, with frequent email communication, WhatsApp messaging, and informal online calls in the interim. The Treasurer also meets with the UK Finance Manager, UK Fundraising & Charity Administrator, and the Executive Director on a monthly basis. 

## **The charity’s organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works** 

We are a small organisation, with one full time employee (Executive Director), one part-time employee (UK Fundraising & Charity Administrator), a freelance management accountant and a volunteer board of trustees. The Executive Director of NewDay United works across South Africa, the UK and USA to internationally promote the charity and its programmes, leading and directing the SA and UK teams. 

NewDay United (UK registered charity) works with NewDay United in South Africa to help facilitate our objectives at a local level and to achieve full accountability. 

Our values and our vision are built on a Christian message of **hope, help and healing** for the people of Africa. We hold a passion to see lives restored and communities transformed in **spirit, soul and body** . Emphasis is placed on enabling **communities to work together for the greater good** , and we do this by collaborating with churches, businesses, community-based organisations and individuals. 

We envision an Africa where suffering and deprivation are rare, and people meet their needs from their collective resources; where communities are strengthened to care for and protect the vulnerable; where there is greater equity among people; where people live with generosity, purpose and dignity.

## NEWDAY UNITED (Charity number 1154744) 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

NewDay United works closely with local churches, businesses, community-based organisations, and individuals to equip people in the areas where we serve. By working collaboratively across divides and sectors and being a witness in the world through our actions and lifestyle, we are seeing lives and communities changed and transformed. This is central to all that we do. 

Our work is focused on delivering educational programmes, job-readiness training, and empowering initiatives to those who would otherwise not have access to them. Our dream is to equip people to secure self-sufficient work and a regular income to lift themselves, their families and eventually their communities out of poverty. 

We are positioned to make a big impact in some of the most deprived communities in South Africa. Over several years we have built relationships with those working and living in Tambo Village, Gugulethu and Manenberg (in the Western Cape). In partnership with trusted co-workers on the ground, we actively identify and implement opportunities that make an enduring difference in the community. 

## Across the communities we work in: 

- 95% of adults have no higher education 

- 72% of adults have not completed grade 12 (the end of the secondary education system) 

- 65% of adults earn an income of less than £165.00 per month 

- 58% of adults are unemployed 

- 48% of adults have only some secondary education 

Within the communities we serve, daily threats of rape, gang violence, crime, malnutrition, and abuse are the consequences stemming from these statistics. 

We take a multi-pronged approach with the opportunities we are given: 

For example, our after-school club also provides nutritious meals for the malnourished children in our care, and we network to create employment opportunities for those undertaking our job readiness courses. We provide a range of programmes including end-user IT courses, sewing skills, back-to-work support and interview training, as well as robotics, coding and maths e-learning for those in our Hluma afterschool club. 

NewDay United’s established networks and community-based relationships enable us to identify opportunities for lasting transformation. 

**The Trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them** 

The board of trustees have reviewed the primary risks to which the charity is exposed and ensure that these and any others are monitored and reviewed on a regular basis either at formal board meetings, or as necessary between such times. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The object of the CIO, for the public benefit, is the prevention and/or relief of poverty in particular by (but not limited to) the provision of financial assistance, resources and other support to individuals in poverty principally (but not exclusively) in Africa.

## NEWDAY UNITED (Charity number 1154744) 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

## **Objectives and main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects** 

1. We deliver after-school support, computer training, social enterprise development, and education programmes to those who are unable to currently financially support themselves. Our programmes and courses provide the skills for individuals to support themselves, their families and improve their communities. 

2. Building partnerships and collaborating with individuals and support organisations working for the prevention and/or relief of poverty, such as grassroots NGOs, churches, social enterprises, and individual service providers in the Western Cape, South Africa. 

3. Delivering our own programmes as well as supporting our partners with funding, practical input, and guidance as they tackle poverty and the problems arising from it in the local areas. 

4. Enlarging our UK and worldwide donor base to enable and facilitate the delivery of the above key activities and to raise funds for related projects. 

5. Raising awareness of the work of NewDay United and its partnerships to enable the above key activities. 

6. Contributing to food security through our Foodscaping programme with local partners. 

## **Public Benefit** 

Based upon the activities mentioned above, the trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers or duties to which the guidance is relevant. 

## **Policy on grant making** 

Any financial donations above £500 made to partners, other than NewDay United SA, are only made following (1) a clearly outlined proposal from one of the Trustees, (2) discussion and approval by at least three Trustees. The proposal and decision must be recorded and kept within the financial records. 

Any financial donations and gifts below £500 are considered discretionary and are typically proposed by the Executive Director or UK Fundraising & Charity Administrator and approved by the Treasurer or Chair of Trustees. 

Donations made to NewDay United SA for any value are calculated by the Finance Manager, and reviewed and approval by the Executive Director, UK Fundraising & Charity Administrator and Treasurer at a monthly finance meeting. 

All donations are reported to the Trustees at each board meeting. 

Partners are defined as specific NGO projects or key individuals that NewDay United selects and provides support to, either financial, material or both, usually as part of an ongoing commitment. Such Partners are selected by looking at the strength of our relationships with selected individuals and/or NGOs, the strategic fit to our charity’s overriding objectives and the opportunity for NewDay United to make a significant impact with the resources available for that project. 

## **Partner investments (summary of financial support total):** 

- Redemption Fund - following an armed robbery at our Khanyisa Church base, we launched this specific appeal. The monies raised supplemented the insurance pay out to replace stolen IT equipment and phones from those affected and helped fund ongoing trauma counselling for the NewDay United team and beneficiaries.

- Sewing Social Enterprise Group (ongoing) 

- Staffing and resource costs for the Hluma Programme (after-school and holiday club) (ongoing)

## **Contribution made by volunteers:** 

Due to restrictions from Covid, there were no opportunities for volunteers during the financial year. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

The main Achievements of the CIO in the Report Period are as follows: 

## **Mentoring and Training** 

NewDay United is committed to ongoing relational support and partnership in order to achieve our objectives and ensure accountability. We do this by walking alongside those we partner with or have partnered with historically. 

During the Covid-19 pandemic, there was ongoing training and development online through digital platforms such as Zoom. 

The Executive Director was able to travel to South Africa during the second half of 2021-22 and ran workshops, held in-person one-to-one mentoring and development sessions and a Vision and Strategy Day with the team in November 2021. 

During 2021-22, the McLean Fund, financed by former supporters of the McLeans during their time with NDU SA, was launched specifically for the purpose of offering sponsorships for personal development and education of team members. Individuals are required to submit an application for their training and development needs, which is reviewed by the SA Operations Director, the Executive Director and the McLeans. 

## **Our Programmes** 

**Foodscaping:** 2021 was our Year of Harvest and saw our Foodscaping Programme take root to contribute to food security in the community. 

Borne out of the Covid-19 lockdowns as we sought a more sustainable approach to delivering emergency food parcels, the project began with distributing wooden vegetable box kits, enabling those who received them to learn to grow their own food and become more independent. In March 2021 it evolved into composting and digging the soil on roadside verges for planting to gradually transform these areas with edible plants. 

During 2021-22, we entered a partnership with Phoenix High School and the local Government Community Works Programme, to develop a neglected 3/4-hectare plot with a vision to grow seasonal fruit and vegetables for the community. 

To date, the produce has been distributed to local soup kitchens including Khanyisa, providing food for our Hluma afterschool programme and sold at an affordable price to the local community, with the proceeds reinvested in buying seeds and seedlings.

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

Towards the end of the financial year, work began on an adjacent second plot and we started developing a Home Gardens initiative, rolling this out on a smaller scale home-by-home and training households to grow their own produce in their own yards. 

In 2022-23, we hope to see this rolled out across the neighbourhood enabling individuals and families to grow their own crops, encouraging self-sufficiency and food security. 

**Sewing Enterprise:** This programme trains individuals - predominantly women - of all ages who have little or no income to generate funds through learning new sewing, craft or business skills. This equips and empowers them to set up their own social enterprise to sell the crafts and textiles they make. 

Central to their vision is the commitment to create community, whilst training up others to generate jobs and income, as well as improving self-esteem. This type of enterprise is at the heart of a new economic transformation in South Africa, where small businesses are springing up, run and owned by those who are members of it. 

With the gift of new machines in March 2022, the group has been able to increase its capacity and now has an average of 19 participants. 

**Hluma Afterschool Project:** HIuma is a safe haven for children and youth aged 9-17 to be together, eat a nutritious meal (sometimes their only meal of the day), learn life skills and to receive 1-2-1 tutoring in reading, comprehension, and maths. 

The programme gets children off the streets in the gap between school ending and their parents’ return from work. It’s the time when children are at their most vulnerable to the high levels of gang violence, rape and other physical attacks in the area. 

There are over 100 children and youth in the programme and as part of our holiday club provision, in 2021-22 the group were able to go on an excursion to a local nature reserve. 

In addition to the Hluma programme we also offer e-learning, a Coder-Dojo programming club and Robotics sessions. 

**Maths and Science E-learning:** The programme resumed in April 2021 after pausing due to Covid restrictions. 

We use online e-learning programmes as part of our homework support, enabling children to improve their knowledge and confidence – as well as their computing skills – in key areas of the curriculum. 

With the help of the Vodacom e-school platform, we can provide maths tuition to help our learners grasp and practice different mathematical concepts whilst monitoring their scores to identify any areas for improvement. We can also tailor the programme to the specific individual needs of each child. 

Since it began, over 90% of those on our e-learning programme are now passing maths at school and show a significant improvement in their maths test scores between each term. 

**CoderDojo** : This programming club is designed for young people between the ages of 7 and 17 where they learn to code, build a website, create an app or a game, and explore technology in an informal, creative, fun and social environment.

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

Facilitated by CoderLevelUp, a regional partner for the CoderDojo Foundation, the focus is on peer learning, youth mentoring and self-lead learning. Our aim is to help young people realise that they can build a positive future through coding and community. 

During 2021-22, our group were part of Mission Zero and were able to put their skills into practice in the European Space Agency’s (ESA) education programme. The group collaborated with children from countries across the globe writing code to send to real astronauts on a real spacecraft. The code was used to measure spacecraft humidity with the astronauts sending the humidity reading and a message back to the team. 

**Robotics** : This programme for 9 – 17-year-olds resumed in April 2021 after pausing during the Covid pandemic. 

Robotics has been identified as a key skill for future employment and a fun way to learn practical maths and science. In collaboration with partners, our weekly robotics classes provide familiarity and contact with high-tech software and hardware, which is normally only available at tertiary level education. 

Our hope is that this early exposure and learning of these skills, will increase our beneficiaries’ employability capacity in a technological world. 

**Computer Learning Centre (CLC):** Designed and located to engage hard to reach communities where individuals would otherwise be unable to access opportunities to develop their IT skills, our accredited National Certificate Qualification in IT: End-User Computing is frequently oversubscribed. 

Run in 6-month blocks, the course provides a pathway from theoretical concepts to providing learners with practical skills and competencies in end-user computing equipping them for the workplace or further study. 

Accessible to people of all ages and genders, the skills learned in our CLC are scarce in South Africa but high in demand and provide a solid foundation for accessing further education and employment, as well as boosting selfesteem and opening new horizons. 

As part of the course, students in our CLC also join our Work 4 A living programme, where they are provided with key skills and mentoring to help them find work once they have graduated. 

Despite the challenges imposed by Covid, 23 individuals were able to complete the course and graduate in 202122. 

In January 2022 we launched our more advanced Systems Development (Coding) course to further progress our students’ programming skills and future job prospects. We will be rolling out the course, which includes work experience / internships, in 2022-23 for those who have graduated from our End-User programmes following the successful completion of the pilot. 

**Work 4 A Living (W4AL):** This intensive and practical 12-day job readiness course invests in people by teaching workplace and entrepreneurial skills needed to find work and earn a sustainable income and support themselves. Despite Covid restrictions reducing the number of courses we were able to run, we held 7 courses, with 90 individuals graduating in 2021-22. 

We work with a variety of local and national business partners who proactively choose to recruit from our graduate pool. 

To further assist graduates in finding work, from 2021-22 we now register all those who have attended the W4AL programme with mobile job app platforms, JobJack and MobiJob, which provide a database to connect jobseekers with employers for permanent, part-time, freelance and one-off event work.

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

Upon completion of W4AL, a significant proportion of our students have either found employment or established their own businesses. 

During the financial year the team also started developing the content for a Call Centre Course designed to equip participants with the skills to run and manage a call centre as this industry expands in Cape Town and demand for workers grows. 

This accredited 10-day course will be piloted during 2022-23 before being rolled out to those who have graduated from our W4AL course to enhance the employment opportunities available to them. 

**Psychosocial health (emotional, mental, spiritual and social wellness):** Many of our team and the beneficiaries we serve have experienced trauma throughout their lives. 

NewDay United is committed to restoration and wholeness in the lives of those we work with. Following an armed robbery at our Khanyisa Church base and death of one of our Hluma children in gang crossfire during 2021-22, an experienced trauma counsellor began working alongside us. 

We initially offered 1:1 counselling and group support for those affected but will continue to provide this support and training and make it available to our team and beneficiaries to contribute to their emotional and psychological wellness. 

## **Funding the CIO** 

NewDay United secures funding for itself and its partners by applying to grant making organisations, trusts and foundations for financial support. 

Our partnerships are based on strong relationships, with financial accountability aligned to our charitable objectives. Many organisations we work with are too small or unable to access funds by themselves, despite their reach and work in their communities. 

NewDay United has spoken in many churches, and at national and international conferences, as well as speaking to potential supporters in other sectors of work to raise funds, engage regular donors and raise awareness for our work. 

## **Raising Awareness** 

NewDay United has worked to create a variety of promotional communications platforms via the printed word, email newsletters, social media, our website as well as photo and video / YouTube updates. These are publicised in South Africa, the UK, Europe, and the USA to enable fundraising and to raise awareness of NewDay United and the partners and projects it supports. 

The www.newdayunited.org website was initially launched in 2014 and is regularly reviewed, improved, updated, and changed to encourage engagement and direct users to how they can be involved with NewDay United. 

Our website homepage communicates our vision and links to stories, as well as a page for each of the projects we run. The website also includes a web shop selling virtual goods to enable our supporters to buy items which fulfil specific needs for our projects, such as a laptop, a football, or some stationery for a school child. 

During the year, we have developed our offering of ‘free fundraisers’ including Thrift +, Give As You Live, Amazon Smile, Nectar Donate and Recycle for Charity. These are promoted across our different platforms to encourage our supporters to raise funds for free through their everyday activities.

## NEWDAY UNITED (Charity number 1154744) 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

We have an active profile on social platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, with an ever-growing number of engaged followers across the globe. 

Following the restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic, our Executive Director resumed speaking engagements in 2022 in Belgium, the USA as well as across the UK and South Africa. This has raised the profile of our organisation as we seek to gain more financial, prayer and practical support for NewDay United and its partner projects in South Africa. 

## **Volunteers** 

We are immensely grateful for the work of volunteers. 

Over the years, our network of volunteers have generously shared gifts of their time and talents to work with NewDay United in the areas of projects, operations, youth work, communications, fundraising and skills resourcing. 

Due to the global pandemic, there have been limited opportunities during 2021-22 to engage volunteers in person. However, with the aid of digital platforms such as Zoom, we have developed our online engagement with volunteers sharing expertise remotely. 

## **Prayer Support** 

We have many prayer supporters, through partner churches and individuals who have subscribed to our Prayer Update emails and WhatsApp messages. They support NewDay United and its partnerships through prayer, spiritual input and encouragement. We are so grateful for the time and prayer so sacrificially given by these faithful supporters as prayer is the foundation of all that we do. 

## **Financial Review** 

## **Charity’s policy on reserves** 

NewDay United is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation established in response to a calling from God and as such the board of Trustees believe that God will be faithful in providing the resources required to fulfil that calling. The board of Trustees accepts that it is wise financial management to support a Reserves Policy which can provide financial stability and the means for the development of our principal activity. 

The board of Trustees reviews NewDay United’s Reserves Policy annually, and reviews the current financial status, including cash reserves and forecast at each Trustee meeting, and particularly prior to making any significant funding or operational decisions. 

The purpose of the Reserves Policy is to smooth out any short-term variations in funding and expenditure to ensure that the charity is able to fulfil its objectives without interruption. 

Under normal circumstances the Board of Trustees considers it appropriate to hold reserves of 3 to 4 months of typical committed monthly expenditure. At our financial year-end, our Financial Reserves in the General Fund were above this range at £34,581 and the board of Trustees was therefore satisfied that NewDay United remains in a financially viable position. 

The principal sources of funding for NewDay United General Fund for the financial period shown within this report were through regular donations from Tribo Synthetics (31%), other regular individual donors (30%), Ivy Church (16%), and other one-off donations (14%). Gift Aid Income claimed in 2021-22 made up 5% of General Fund income. 

The board of Trustees agreed that the key objectives of the CIO continue to be met in part thanks to the expenditure from NewDay United towards a number of specific activities (see a sample of these within the Achievements and

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the YEAR ended 31[st] MARCH 2022** 

Performance section) as well as to cover costs and expenses incurred by key partners and consultants in delivering support activities as requested by the board. All financial expenditure was made in line with our principal aim towards the prevention and/or relief of poverty principally in Africa. 

On the 4[th] March 2022, NewDay received two income amounts, £4,960.67 and £6,750.00 from Evolution Lending. Evolution Lending had no connection with NewDay and we were not aware of the reason for such payments. NewDay therefore, carried out investigations with HSBC to ensure that these payments were not part of money laundering, fraudulent or illegal payments. It was established that the payments had been made in error and should have been made to NewDay Limited. The amounts were returned on 23[rd] March 2022. 

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission, including the guidance on public benefit.

- Funds set aside to meet the cost of providing accommodation in South Africa for UK staff visits

## 4. **Trustees Remuneration and Expenses** 

During the period, salaries and related costs of £40,047 and expenses of £10,900 were paid to the Executive Director and Operations Director, who are both trustees of the charity, in order to cover costs and expenses incurred in delivering support activities to South African partners, as requested by the board.  These were all in respect of work carried out in furtherance of the charity’s objects. The Operations Director ceased to be both an employee and trustee of the charity in May 2021 and so remuneration and expenses were only paid for that period.
