I gained strength from talking to my support worker, I hadn't realised what a significant part of my journey she had been. I would not be where l am without her. Since I've been on this journey I've not met anyone so sincere and genuinely caring as those I've met from SATEDA., (March 2024) Support2Court: Improving women's outcomes through the legal system Support2Court (S2C) provides vital assistance to women across Kent seeking safety and justice, helping them navigate the civil court process to apply for protective orders.

SATEDA Limited (A Company Llmlted by Guarantee) Truste Report (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2024 Sharewear Sharewear completed its first full year of delivery with overwhelming success. Sharewear provides clothes and shoes, free of charge, for all ages of women and children. Clothes are high-quality, seasonally appropriate and provided in a dignified and respettful way. The offer developed over the year to include 'mobile' pop-up sessions, taking clothing into community spaces at events and venues easily accessible to people in areas with poor transport links. We also partnered with various local businesses and other charities to expand the projecrs reach and encourage donations. To help reach families who were isolated and not accessing services living on a migrant site in the area, we partnered with Swale Borough Council and the Kent Fire & Rescue Service, along with SATEDA volunteertranslators, to develop an access point to remove their barriers to accessing services. SATEDA led Sharewear sessions which we developed into monthly on-site multi-agency sessions. This project showcased to other professionals how creativity and working directly with beneficiaries can change outcomes. Both the families living there and the site management are now engaging with mainstream services and continue to benefit from our popup sessions. Over the year, Sharewear provided clothing to 838 families. This resulted in 7423 items being repurposed. and saved a phenomenal 4 tonnes of material being saved from landfill. Children and Young People's Support At SATEDA, we believe real change must involve children and young people (CYP) .

SATEDA Limited (A Company Limited by Guarantee) Trustee< Report (continued) Forthe Year Ended 31 March 2024 FINANCIAL REVIEW Results for the year SATEDA is extremely grateful to every trust, organisation and individual who has donated during the year and enabled us to continue ourvitsl work. The recruitment in this financial year of a Fundraising Manager means SATEDA now have a designated person who is enabling SATEDA to rise to the increasing challenges of generating income which all charities currently face. The increase in grant incomes that are currently being achieved enables SATEDA to ensure that all our staff are paid fairly and in line with the current real Living Wage. In the year 202312024 the total income generated was £649,873 (202212023 £480,643). Total expenditure for the year was £500,904 (202Z12023: £460,781). The highest expenditure is salaries and associated costs at £429,002 (85.696), with all paid staff earning over the Real Living Wage. A surplus of £143,969 was generated. This surplus achieved 15 partly due to the timing of grants for projects which are received in arrears after the work has been carried out and the expenditure has been incurred. There were also savings from salary costs where there were recruitment gaps. This funding has bolstered our reserves and will be utilised to address the funding gaps that emerge in the coming year as longstanding multi-year grants come to an end. The balance of funds at 31 March 2024 was £496.304 (2022: £347,377). Of these funds, £28,710 represented restricted funds and a further £10,025 which can only be realised by disposing of tangible fixed assets. This leaves £457,569 of free unrestricted reserves. We are mindful that the charity is largely dependent on grant income and this area of income generation will become more challenging in the coming years. A funding strategy addressing this will work to diversify income streams in the future. Page10
SATEDA Limited (A Company Limited by Guarantee) Truste Report (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2024 Reserves policy The policy adopted by the board of trustees in August 2019 and in use for 202312024 considers the likelihood of sudden catastrophic failure leading to unplanned closure of SATEDA. The board concluded that as this was very unlikely. so a more realistic assessment of risk was to consider what funding may not be renewed and the impart that this will have upon staff and services. The policy is to assess financial risk for an18-month period which gives sufficient resilience to retain core staff and continue to deliver core services, as long as the policy is reviewed each year. This policy will be reviewed annually. In May 2024 a new approach to reserves was adopted by the board. This specifie5 that 9 - 12 months of running costs will be used as a basis for retaining reserves and recognises the challenging funding landscape. Going concern After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. STRUCTURE.
