CASE STUDY

Talia (not her real name) is a Moroccan migrant and young, single mother with three young children. Initially, she joined her husband in the UK five-years ago and she lived in a small council flat with her family. Talia’s friend referred her to STN for support with work and housing. Talia was in a destructive marriage, suffering domestic abuse from her husband and her sister-in-law; upon her first meeting with STN, she was crying, suffering trauma, and felt completely helpless. Talia had language barrier difficulties as she spoke little English.

STN was able to communicate effectively with her as we have Arabic and French speaking interpreters and, quickly, we were able to develop a good rapport with Talia, building trust. Talia explained the complications in her private life, disclosing that she’s experiencing domestic violence from her husband and his family. Whilst she’d run away from her home with her children for safety, she was unable to find work nor housing from public sector services. We listened to Talia thoroughly, taking notes and identifying the issues and barriers she faced.

On her behalf STN contacted the National Domestic Violence 24-hour helpline, and we managed to secure a safe accommodation in a women’s refuge for Talia and her children. We also worked with other organisations such as Solace Charity Services, the Middle Eastern Women and Society Organisation and the Ealing Law Centre as Talia also had problems with her stay in UK. Talia received many follow-up sessions with STN to help her achieve her targets and overcome her barriers.

CONCLUSION & IMPACT

The progress Talia made whilst volunteering at Sue Ryder Care was tremendous in terms of her renewed self-esteem, improved spoken English, improved digital skills, strong interpersonal skills with customers and good teamwork with her colleagues. After two years of our support, Talia managed to get her asylum seekers and indefinite leave to remain in the UK. Talia then joined STN’s Child Care Level 2 programme as she wanted to seek paid employment .Following successful completion of the course, Talia also completed short courses such in food safety, and first aid.

She is now working as a dinner lady in a local school on paid-time hours to which suits her childcare responsibilities. It was rewarding for STN and Talia to guide her during her difficult journey and growth of overcoming domestic violence, gain UK status and sustainable employment.

The partnerships work enables us to provide wider choices of further training to our learners, creates opportunities for our clients, facilitate cross referrals, sharing resources, identifying volunteering and work placements opportunities.

We have strong relationships other charities and community organisations, as well as recruitment agencies, schools, and employers. We are always open to new partnerships, as long as there are clear and transparent shared objectives to support the local community.

This year we have developed new successful partnerships with organisations and enabled us to offer our beneficiaries specific help, services and training.

Through the next year onwards we look forward to strengthening these relationships, especially with groups working with disabled service users and the LGBTQ+ community.

WEBSITE & MARKETING

The revamp of our new website is nearly complete, with our Trainee Web Developer helping to ensure accessibility for all no matter the device they are viewing on. We are continually getting feedback from our beneficiaries and staff on improvements that can be made.

We are also working to develop our e-learning platform, The Learning Web, which we are in the process of setting up as a trading subsidiary of the charity.

Our new Social Media & Marketing Assistant has been supporting in keeping our various social media accounts regularly updated and making new connections with beneficiaries and other organisations. We have also designed a new flyer that is being distributed to local libraries, children’s centres, and jobcentres, to promote the new training and services we have on offer, now that they are open again, and we are back to delivering the majority of our services face to face.

OUR VOLUNTEERING
----- End of picture text -----

The feedback we have got from our volunteers has said that they have found the experience highly beneficial, and that it has helped many to go into employment as a result. Volunteering is mutually beneficial for both us an organisation, and the volunteers themselves, who will receive training, a reference, and experience.

We have grown our pool of volunteers that all come from the local community, have diverse backgrounds, and bring invaluable skills in areas such as accounting, counselling, social media, and mentoring. Examples of success include volunteers moving into sustainable employment after supporting and developing their work experience at STN. For some, volunteering can be a route to employment, or a chance to try something new which may lead to a career change.

I'm grateful to STN for the chance to expand my skills by volunteering as a graphic designer. They are a pleasure to work with and the end results are always satisfying. The designs we have created will help people find the resources that they need.”

We value the contribution of volunteers in many areas of our work, including bi-lingual support work, administration, IT and mentoring. We recruit volunteers from a variety of websites such as:

Trustees’/ Director’s Report

The trustees are pleased to present their annual report for the year ended 31st October 2020 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015).

Small company special provisions

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime.

Statement of Directors’ and Trustees’ Responsibilities

The Companies Act 2006 requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company. Charity trustees are the people who serve on the governing body of a charity. They may be known as trustees, directors, board members, governors or committee members. The principles and main duties are the same in all cases. Trustees have, and must accept, ultimate responsibility for directing the affairs of a charity, and ensuring that it is solvent, well-run, and meeting the needs for which it has been set up.

Risk management

The Trustees continue to appraise the management risk facing the organisation. This involves identifying the types of risk the charity faces, prioritising them in terms of potential impact and likelihood of occurrence, and identifying ways of mitigating the risks. As part of this process, the Trustees have reviewed the adequacy of the Centre’s current internal controls. The Trustees are pleased to report that the Centre’s internal financial controls, in particular, conform to guidelines issued by the Charities Commission.

During the COVID-19 Pandemic, Skills & Training Network’s emergency responses were activated which mitigated for associated risks and amend accordingly as this reporting period falls partly within the pandemic period. The organisation resilience was responsive and strong which ensured business resilience and sustainability.

Our volunteers

Skills and Training Network are very involved in the community and rely on voluntary help. 10 volunteers assisted with our on-going activities. We wish to thank our volunteers for their loyal support and contribution.

Objectives and aims

The charity’s objectives are to support and improve the lives of disadvantaged people.

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit.

Reserves policy

The Board has assessed the charity’s requirements for reserves in the light of the main risks to the organisation. As a result, the Board has approved a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed, should be held in reserve and maintained at a level which ensures that Skills and Training Network core activity could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. The target reserve amount represents at least 6 months’ (26 weeks) expenditure and will be reviewed annually.

Main Charity Objectives

“1) To act as a resource for young and adult people living in London by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of physical, educational and other activities as a means of:

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.

It is my responsibility to:

• to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) to indicate that:

• where accounts are prepared on an accruals basis, whether they fail to comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006, or are not consistent with the Charities SORP (FRS102)
