Report Annual Accounts

1. Executive Summary

Migration continues to shape communities across the United Kingdom, bringing both opportunities and challenges for individuals seeking safety, stability and a new start in life. In Nottingham, asylum seekers, refugees and migrants often arrive with immense resilience but face significant barriers to integration, including language difficulties, limited access to employment opportunities, unfamiliar systems of welfare and healthcare, and social isolation. Refugee-led organisations such as Belong Nottingham play a vital role in bridging these gaps by providing trusted, culturally informed support that enables individuals and families to rebuild their lives and contribute positively to society.

Over the past year, Belong Nottingham has continued to strengthen its role as a community anchor organisation supporting the social and economic integration of displaced communities. Through our integrated programmes in English language learning, employability, welfare advice, health access support and youth development, we have supported hundreds of people to develop skills, access essential services and take meaningful steps towards independence. Our work has helped individuals move into employment and education, secure vital financial support, access healthcare services, and build stronger connections within their communities.

This progress would not have been possible without the commitment of our dedicated staff, volunteers, partners and funders. We remain grateful for the continued support of our funders, and many community partners who share our vision of a more inclusive society. As a refugee-led charity, Belong also continues to play a leadership role within the local voluntary sector by mentoring and supporting emerging refugee community organisations and strengthening collaboration across the city.

Demand for our services continues to grow as more people turn to Belong for guidance and support. While this highlights on going challenges faced by refugees and migrants, it also reinforces the importance of organisations like Belong in helping people move from crisis to stability and opportunity. As we look ahead, we remain committed to expanding our impact, advocating for the communities we serve, and ensuring that everyone who seeks safety and a future in the UK has the opportunity not only to belong, but to thrive.

2. Charity report

Belong Nottingham continued to play a vital role in supporting the social and economic integration of asylum seekers, refugees and migrants during the 2024– 2025 financial year. The charity delivered a wide range of services including employability support, English language courses (ESOL), welfare advice, health access support, and programmes for families, young people and children.

Over the reporting period, 2277 visits were recorded at Belong’s offices from individuals seeking support, including 1082 unique service users who came to Belong for the first time between August 2024 and July 2025. These figures reflect the growing trust placed in Belong by the communities it serves and the increasing demand for culturally informed support services.

Language learning remains central to successful integration, and Belong’s ESOL programme continued to expand during the year. A total of 378 learners were enrolled across different levels, from pre-entry to Entry 3. Among these, 25 learners completed accredited courses and successfully passed their examinations, which were accredited by Ascentis. Several learners progressed to higher levels within the programme, while others moved on to further study in local colleges. Demand for English classes continues to exceed capacity, with a waiting list of 656 people for ESOL, highlighting the significant need for additional resources to expand provision.

Belong’s employability services continued to make a measurable difference in helping refugees and migrants move towards economic independence. With the financial support of our donors, the employability team supported 325 individuals through activities including CV writing, job search support, interview preparation and volunteering opportunities to build UK work experience. As a result, 143 people moved into employment, 102 progressed into further education, 23 entered apprenticeships, and 42 began volunteering opportunities. Additionally, 45 individuals supported in previous years were able to sustain their employment with ongoing support from Belong. The programme also focused on supporting economically inactive individuals, assisting 40 people with tailored guidance and support from April 2025 to July 2025. Of these, 12 secured and employment, 22 went into training. During the year, Belong also launched its Personal Development and Employability Programme, with the first cohort expected to complete the programme in the following financial year.

The welfare advice service remained one of Belong’s most heavily used and impactful programmes. Between August 2024 and July 2025, the welfare team supported over 1,800 individuals with confidential advice, information and guidance covering a wide range of issues including Universal Credit applications, council tax support, housing and homelessness support, school admissions and debt

management. Of the 1,829 individuals supported, 1,542 successfully secured benefit approvals, including Universal Credit, council tax and housing support, Personal Independence Payment (PIP), work capability assessments, housing support and child benefit awards. The team also achieved 195 additional positive outcomes, including successful challenges to sanctions imposed by the Department for Work and Pensions and the correction of council tax benefit decisions. The service maintains an impressive 95% success rate in supporting clients to access Universal Credit and Council Tax Support, ensuring vulnerable individuals and families can meet their basic living needs. The welfare service continues to evolve to meet increasing demand, with new internal systems and improved preparation processes helping reduce waiting times and improve outcomes for clients.

During the year, Belong secured a new Public Health contract with Nottingham City Council to improve healthcare access for asylum seekers and refugees. Launched in April 2025, the programme worked with 300 unique clients within its first four months, supporting them to register with GPs, dentists and opticians, as well as assisting with key NHS documentation such as HC2 forms for healthcare cost support. The programme also strengthened collaboration with health providers across Nottingham to ensure individuals could access the services they are entitled to. As part of this work, Belong is planning to deliver training sessions for healthcare professionals to increase awareness of the barriers refugees and asylum seekers face when accessing public services, helping to improve inclusivity and responsiveness across the local health system.

Belong also continued its strong commitment to supporting children and young people. Over the year, the charity worked closely with a core group of 20 young people, while providing additional support to a further 132 participants through educational, mentoring and sports-based initiatives designed to build confidence, encourage learning and help young people avoid negative influences. Through the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme, Belong provided 960 activity places, offering safe recreational activities alongside nutritious meals during school holidays. These programmes produced tangible outcomes, with four young people progressing to university, six receiving support with their university personal statements, and 30 young people volunteering within the holiday programme, developing leadership skills and contributing positively to their community. 86% of the young people we worked with during this financial year have reported to have increased their confidence as a result of taking part in the projects delivered by Belong, 89% confirmed to have improved their communication and 74% confirmed to have improved their self-esteem. They have been able to make friends and feel part of the community.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2025

Beyond direct service delivery, Belong continues to play a leadership role within the refugee community sector in Nottingham. As one of the most established refugee-led organisations in the city, Belong actively supports other Refugee Community Organisations by sharing resources, providing mentoring and offering meeting space to help strengthen the wider support network. This collaborative approach enables smaller organisations to develop their capacity while also ensuring that Belong benefits from their linguistic skills, interpreting support and cultural expertise. Through this partnership model, Belong continues to foster a stronger, more connected community infrastructure that benefits asylum seekers, refugees and migrants across Nottingham.

BELONG NOTTINGHAM Independent Examiner's Report FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2025

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of BELONG NOTTINGHAM (the Charity) for the year ended 31st July 2025, which are set out on page 8 to 17.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the Charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in Section 145 of the Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member and Fellow of the Institute Of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts(financial statements)in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on October 2019 which is referred to in the extent regulations but has since been withdrawn. We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

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 Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

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.

BELONG NOTTINGHAM Notes forming part of these financial statements FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2025

1- ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Belong Nottingham meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement

Under the exemption available to smaller charities the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainities related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.

Income and endowments

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Donations and legacies

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.

Grants receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Gift aid

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Financial Activities at the same time as the gift to which they related.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregates similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Page 12

Notes forming part of these financial statements (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY 2025

Government grants

Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as defferred income.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable incorporated organisation for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate Furniture & Fixture 6% reducing balance method Office Equipment 25% reducing balance method

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of debtors is establised when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes,the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
