## **Charitable Objective** 

Be Kind Movement’s purpose is: 

To promote physical, mental and moral development of children and young people in the UK or overseas, including development of emotional intelligence skills. 

The three aims for children and young people are to: 

- **ENTERTAIN** them through the medium of films; 

- **EDUCATE** them on the transformative power of kindness; 

- **EMPOWER them** with emotional intelligence skills for life 

## **Challenges** 

We continued the financial year beginning September 2021 with the uncertainties that plagued us through 2020, namely the future of the economy, the challenges of being a small charity including fundraising and capacity. Latter was especially challenging and impacted our day to day performance to deliver as volunteers returned to their furlough jobs following the roll out of the Covid-19 vaccination. 

The key challenges facing the charity: 

1. **Capacity** - whilst we increased our volunteer numbers from 3 to 30, at our peak in 2020, the charity still lacked senior expertise (within Grants, Fundraising, Operations, Partnerships and Education Development) as many of the volunteers were placement students, graduates or those in the relatively early stages of their career. The trustee and founder, Premila Puri, came on board in 2020 as an interim CEO on a full time voluntary basis to provide strategic and operational leadership. As volunteers returned to their jobs, volunteer capacity dropped to 15 people leading to a reduction in the organisation’s overall capacity to deliver. 

2. **Finances** - our young team of non-grant writers worked on upskilling their knowledge and skills (with no head of department in place) and began submitting grants to Trusts and Foundations achieving a moderate level of success compared to previous years. There remain funds that we do not qualify for as our turnover is below a certain threshold. As the pandemic hit and lockdown ensued, we were unable to host our annual fundraising event and instead we relied on digital events, raising some

CIO Registered 1161876 Trustees Report and Accounts year ended: 31/8/21 

operational funds and brand awareness. This impacted overall fundraising and grant writing. 

3. **Core funding** - whilst we won project grant funding, winning core funding remains our biggest challenge but a crucial one as it would provide resources for part time staff especially those with specialist skills such as social media, finance, grant writing, youth workers, website redesign, legal and HR. Without steady income that covers operating costs and organisational development, planning for the long term needs and the stability of the charity remains compromised. 

4. **Schools** - we have faced a growing demand for KISP™however with schools facing budgetary constraints and the charity having limited grant funding, we were unable to meet the increased demand for kindness workshops. We have started to explore the possibility of setting up Be KInd Academy, an e-learning platform, which would be a more cost effective and carbon footprint friendly way to reach schools across the UK at a fraction of a price which would be subsidised for schools from low income boroughs with independent schools paying the full fees. 

## **Delivery of Goals September 2021 - August 2022** 

## **Fundraising overview** 

The results for the year and financial position are set out in the Statement of Financial Activities and the Balance Sheet. 

1. We raised a total of £54,146 income for the year ending August 2022; resources expended were £49,140.00 giving us a surplus of £5,006.00. The latter combined with the previous year’s balance gave the charity a net income of £17,767.00 which includes reserves of £2500.00. 

2. Our biggest source of funding has been grant income (£48,376.00) with community fundraising coming in second (£5,568.00) 

3. We submitted 26 grant applications and our success rate was 27% 

4. We ran two fundraising campaigns - Big GIve June 2022 and Kindness at Christmas campaign Dec 2021.

## **Partnerships** 

BKM currently has three active partnerships as follows: 

## Kind Natured 

Kind Natured is a British based beauty brand and their mission is to hold kindness at their core, to support people, planet & self. They're a passionate bunch, creating natural formulations that deliver products without compromise. The principal objective was for Kind Natured to raise funds, awareness and promote the work of the Charity with 1% of net sales based on sale of Kind Natured merchandise. We received £3400.23 from Kind Natured in the year ending August 2022. 

## Enjoy Stevie 

Enjoy Stevie is a discount platform offering deals, discount offers and vouchers for UK's favourite restaurants, cinemas, food deliveries, perks and online retail brands. Stevie runs their company on kindness, making it the perfect fit with the Be Kind Movement. Supporting us with fundraising by providing us with auction and raffle prizes. 

## Be Kind Productions 

Be Kind Productions is a film production company set up by Premila Puri, founder of Be Kind Movement. Premila has been providing in kind services to support the charity with the sourcing of films, liaising with filmmakers and producing filmed content that is included in Kindness in School Programme™. 

Never Forget Marketing, digital marketing consultancy and Calmer, a training organisation, for organisational reasons are no longer able to support us financially.

## **Education Activities** 

We had a very busy year developing and designing content for workshops even as we had a smaller team of volunteers. However, recruiting two part-time volunteers who were teachers in primary and secondary schools helped us greatly with feedback on films and content that was bespoke to the needs of the children. We continued to source films, design workshops and handbooks. 

Kindness workshops are experiential and creative workshops that involve students watching high impact short form visual content subsequently engaging in thought-provoking exercises, role plays, creative games, discussions and cooperative learning activities, with an action-oriented task at the end of each class. These workshops enable children to connect the dots of the educational material to their everyday lives. Based on this holistic approach, children investigate and explore their answers in a way which builds connection and meaning with the material whilst enabling deeper communication and reflection on what kindness means to them on a daily basis and what they would do differently. 

Impact of Kindness workshops from children and teachers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiiWxXdxWTI&t=6s 

We also successfully delivered digital filmmaking kindness workshops to four primary schools, namely Burntwood Primary, John Burns Primary, Emanuel School and Northcote Lodge. Latter two were private independent schools; the former were two schools from low income areas. All schools were based in Wandsworth. These workshops were funded by Awards for All.

In addition to kindness workshops, we also won funding from Thomas Grant Foundation to produce and shoot a film called Newbie with primary school children on the subject of disability and kindness in July 2022. This was a collaborative project between Emanuel School and John Burns primary School, in association with Be Kind Movement, and a local production company called Be Kind Productions. James Skinner, co-writer and director, and film teacher at Emanuel School, led the project with John Burns. In May 2023 we will be screening this film to years 5 and 6 and the charity will deliver kindness workshops on Newbie to Year 5, and to other schools in Wandsworth and beyond. 


## **Digital Marketing and Social Media Activities** 

Laura May, who joined as Head of Social Media and Marketing in March 2020, continued in a voluntary capacity until December 2021 with her company Never Forget Forget Marketing providing pro bono services. However from January 2022 given the pressures on small entrepreneur led businesses she was unable to provide her pro bono services. We agreed to pay her a nominal fee of £250.00 for 8 hours monthly support. She continued to lead a virtual team of 4-5 volunteers often providing more than 8 hours support to the charity. 

Our marketing and digital footprint remained strong throughout the year with a team of volunteers and placement students. The charity’s wins and finalist nominations helped spearhead heavy social media engagement. We have been able to achieve growth across all our social media

channels and google ads have been of significant value in bringing new enquiries from schools. BKM is very active on social media and has an 

ever-expanding follower base. Social media posts provide updates on our 

work, give information about upcoming events, share relevant stories related to well-being and kindness and raise awareness for mental health and kindness 



2021-22 saw progressive growth for the charity in the area of digital marketing and social media as follows:

## **Be Kind Movement Overview** 

The charity continues to build emotional intelligence skills in children and young people that promotes mental, social, emotional and physical needs. We do this through the medium of films and the transformative power of kindness. The demand for our services has continued to grow with schools identifying a greater need for children and young people to be kinder, civil, tolerant of each other in classrooms, playgrounds and beyond. 

Overall the charity was able to maintain a similar level of income as the previous year though we experienced a higher rate of volunteer attrition due to volunteers returning to work as the economy bounced back after Covid-19. The need to recruit salaried employees remains a high priority in order to cope with the increased demand from schools, to manage business as usual and to fundraise for the future needs of the charity. 

The government’s Kickstart Program which the charity participated in in early 2021 successfully continued into 2022 with a number of young people benefiting from the government’s financial assistance and from the opportunity to learn on the job in a professional context with the charity in areas such as Digital marketing, Grant writing and Admin.

This year was the first year that the charity was nominated as a finalist at a number of award ceremonies. Our Founder and acting CEO, Premila Puri, was a finalist at the Wandsworth Enterprise Awards and a Nominee for Positivity at the Small Business Awards. She won the Charity 

Champion Award at The Best Business Awards in October 2021, and the charity was nominated as a Finalist at the very prestigious National Diversity Awards 2021 in Liverpool. The charity was selected as one of 125 finalists out of a staggering 75,000 entries. A very proud moment for 

everyone at Be Kind Movement. In addition, the charity’s short film “Making Kindness the Norm’ was selected as a finalist at the Charity Film Awards. 

Premila Puri was also invited to present an award to the kindest pupil at the first ever Be Kind Awards ceremony at Keele University in March 2021. The Awards have been set up by two teachers in the Midlands to recognise, celebrate and award kindness amongst children, was also invited 

Premila Puri has continued to lead as an Interim CEO two-three (2-3) days a week unpaid and it is hoped that in the coming year this role would be delivered by a part-time salaried person. As previous years, where Premila Puri provides specialist services such as workshop facilitation, grant writing, reviewing educational material etc, these are chargeable activities approved by the Charity Commission. 

## **Financial review** 

The results for the year and financial position are set out in the Statement of Financial Activities and the Balance Sheet. Resources expended were £49,140.00 with incoming resources of 54,146.00, with a surplus of £5,006.00. The latter combined with the previous year’s balance gave the charity net current asset of £12,761.00, and a net income of £17,767.00 which includes reserves of £2,500.00. 

For the year ending 2022, our biggest source of income has been from grant income (£48,376.00) with community fundraising coming in second (£5,568.00). Despite working with 50% less human resources, the charity was able to marginally increase its revenue which was only possible due to our dedicated team of part-time volunteers.

Based on the 2021-22 financial income breakdown, the following can be concluded going forward: 

- ➢ Grants will yet again remain potentially a source of major income, whilst we aim in the future to diversify multiple sources of income for the charity 

- ➢ The success rate of grant wins is particularly challenging in this high cost of living climate where Trusts and Foundations have limited funds. 

- ➢ Unless the charity is able to secure a part time fundraiser who can create a financial strategy and build a small team, the charity is unlikely to see a significant increase in community donations or individual giving. 

- ➢ The charity has no physical premises and works entirely 100% remotely however costs (ie Zoom and storage) will increase in the 

coming year due to cost of living. 

- ➢ A reserves of £2500 will suffice to cover charity’s ongoing subscription costs for another period of 8-12 months. 

## **Restricted General Reserves:** 

Be Kind Movement is a 100% voluntary driven charity and all funds raised through grants and other restricted income is allocated to the delivery of our charitable goals. The Trustees have agreed to keep a General Reserve that represents approximately 12 months of operating costs (£2,500) enabling main operations to continue regardless of fundraising. This amount would cover our monthly operational (mainly subscription, IT, Insurance and misc) costs and any emergency winding down costs however this does not cover any costs associated with delivering our aims, projects or activities. 

For the coming financial year, the strategy we are looking to implement includes building income through fundraising activities, with a focus on diversifying income streams. 

## **How we intend to use main reserves:** 

We currently have sufficient income to establish reserves at this level and this will be maintained through unrestricted income. The amount of reserves we have will be calculated and monitored every 6 months by Trustees. This policy is renewed every year or whenever there are significant changes to funding income streams or any increased operational costs. 

The process of reviewing the policy includes:

our educational content specifically kindness workshops 

- ●Use of google ads and other tools to maximise BKM digital positioning 

## Educational Research Plans 

- ●Continue to building short films catalogue 

- ●Develop kindness content for workshops 

- ●Create a kinder school starterpack 

- ●Build educational team with a higher number of teachers 

## Operations 

- ●Recruit new Trustees to bring in flesh blood and fill in skills and knowledge gap 

- ●Organisational development including planning, governance and capability building 

The challenge for Be Kind Movement is to stay afloat whilst raising awareness of its work and continuing to deliver its Kindness in School Programme™with no salaried staff and with less than 10 part-time volunteers. Whilst the pandemic has been disruptive and challenging in the last two years, this is slowly being replaced by the cost of living crises and higher inflation costs. Be Kind Movement will continue to be resilient and innovative in meeting the emotional, mental and social educational needs of the children and young people we serve. A significant investment is required to build on the spectacular progress the charity has made since April 2020 to date. 

We would like to thank the Be Kind family of volunteers, supporters, friends, partners and well wishers for supporting our vision of a kinder world for our children. We are truly humbled and in gratitude for your continued dedication, passion and commitment for the greater good.

**Be Kind Movement Notes to the Accounts** 

## **Expenditure** 

- Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

- Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. 

- Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. 

- Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs. 

- Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Trade and other debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management. 

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services** 

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.

**Be Kind Movement Independent Examiners Report** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Be Kind Movement** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Be Kind Movement for the year ended 31 August 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the related notes. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011('the Act'). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements 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** 

I have completed my examination. I can 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: 

- the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

## **Expenditure** 

- Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

- Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. 

- Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. 

- Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs. 

- Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Trade and other debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management. 

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services** 

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
