We’d like to help.**_ Annual Report 2021-22 4 ## **Chair and Trustees Report** Annual Report 2021-22 5 It’s been a privilege to work in collaboration with our Partners and an honour to serve our clients by working within local authority sites citywide across the Midlands and North England. Local authorities and the National Health Service have collectively welcomed our research findings directly from the frontline of our services, contributing to the work of professors, lecturers, clinical trial managers and education course committee’s across majorly populated regions of England where demand is high for clinical intervention and improvement strategies. Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic applied immeasurable pressures on both education training and health services, leaving a ripple effect of reliance and dependency on our support when disadvantaged communities have remained on NHS waiting lists and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities have sought increased levels of support for their personal, emotional, social and academic development. ## **Equity over Equality** We nurture the quality of fairness and impartiality through equity over equality. We prioritise equity over equality, supporting Refugees in transforming lives through effective integration and imbedding their talents into society. By understanding the issues of disadvantaged communities, we overcome problems through early intervention into behavioural therapies, education, developmental training and proactively supporting communities by prioritising improvement strategies with ecological and climate friendly projects. By embracing people’s choices and aspirations to prosper, we enhance positivity by advocating for less advantaged communities, including patients seeking treatment pathways, post Oncology through expert Trichology treatment plans. Community disadvantage emerges out of the interplay between the characteristics of the residents in a community (e.g., employment, education levels, drug and alcohol use) and, over and above this, the effects of the social and environmental context in which they exist (i.e., "place effects" or "neighbourhood effects", such as weak social Annual Report 2021-22 6 networks, poor role models and a relative lack of opportunity) (Edwards, 2005; Vinson, 2007). _**“We remain immensely grateful to everyone who has donated to us this year, making our work possible, that may have otherwise been a greater challenge in delayed assistance for the vulnerable. This includes our regular givers and everyone who has responded to an urgent appeal, donating hundreds of hours in volunteering educational expertise or offered advice and guidance. We are also thankful to the organisations who have supported us, including The Woodland Trust, Collect Eco, Amazon, Scholastic, Humane Society International, and The National Trust.”**_ Trustees & Charity Clerk Annual Report 2021-22 **REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 1156758** **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** **FOR GODIVA GROUP** **GODIVA GROUP** **CONTENTS OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** ||Page| |---|---| |Report of the Trustees|1-2| |Statement of Financial Activities|3| |Balance Sheet|4| |Notes to the Financial Statements|5-6| |Detailed Statement of Financial Activities|7| **GODIVA GROUP** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.
