ENFIELD CARIBBEAN ASSOCIATION Report of the Trustees for The Year to 31[st] March 2025
Message from the chair
I am honoured to be the Chair of Enfield Caribbean Association as we move into our 40th year celebration in 2026. I am thankful to work with an amazing team of trustees who are very talented and committed to ECA. There have been numerous successes over the last year. We have continued to support the most vulnerable in our communities, running the weekly luncheon club for our elders on a Friday. The club is well attended and offers companionship, social interaction, and much more.
Looking back on the last year, there have been several milestones. In June 2024 we partnered with the Black Heritage Hub (BHH) to hold a very successful Windrush event at the Edmonton library. We brought together over 100 people to celebrate with drumming, poetry, speeches, good food and much more. In January 2025 we launched the Black Film Club in partnership with the Dugdale Arts Centre. The Black Film Club celebrates Black talent and stories through great films. From classics to new hits, we curate movies to inspire and bring people together.
In March of this year, we successfully gained significant funding to continue to develop the ECA. We are delighted to have been able to appoint two senior charity coordinators, Alfa Balde and Henry T Gaspard, for three days a week each. The new colleagues bring opportunities for us to develop more programmes and new projects, increase our funding and our reach into the community. With their support, we will expand our outreach, strengthen existing programmes, and launch new initiatives that respond to the evolving needs of our community
We have continued to forge links with local organisations and have been working with Caribbean and African Health Network (CAHN) whose mission is to improve the health outcomes of Black Caribbean and African people and to reduce health disparities, As a member of London Inspire I was part of the team that planned the health summit held at the QE2 hall in Westminster. The summit was attended by over 500 delegates. It was a resounding success with key speakers and workshops covering a plethora of health topics. We continue to support Reach Society and attended their annual Careers conference in London which is held in April. We also partner with Enfield Black Community Health Forum, who hold very informative monthly sessions covering a range of health topics.
I would like to thank our trustees, associate trustees, and volunteers who provide valuable services to the community. With their support we can offer vital services to Black and global majority communities, reduce isolation and build communities.
If you are interested in becoming a member or volunteer with ECA, or would like to donate to us , further information can be found on our website at https://theeca.org.uk/get-involved/ or contact us at info@theeca.org.uk.

ECA Annual Report and Financial Statement
Registered Charity No: 1164139
Introduction to ECA
Enfield Caribbean Association’s trustees are pleased to present their annual report and independently examined financial statements for the year ended 31[st] March 2025. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2005) (Accounting Standards Charities Act 2011).
This Annual Report provides a summary of our main achievements, some of our plans for the year ahead, and our financial statement for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Principle Objectives
Enfield Caribbean Association (ECA) is a small, registered charity set up to provide support and leadership to our community. We normally provide social and cultural activities such as a weekly luncheon club and seated exercise class, day trips, and theatre trips. We also hold an annual celebration of Windrush Day and Black History Month. Through this work Enfield Caribbean Association helps and encourages members (particularly those of Caribbean descent) who are isolated, or disadvantaged, to overcome difficult periods in their lives and to take positive steps towards improving their own health and well-being, and to discover new opportunities for participating in and benefiting from the community. The ECA also gives advice and guidance and signposts and refers older people to other agencies as appropriate.
The ECA continues to support organisations addressing issues of health that challenge the community to reduce disparities and improve the health of Caribbean and African communities. We also address issues of social justice that affect our communities.
Our Mission
We work to eliminate racial discrimination and for an inclusive, fair, and equal community, in which people of Caribbean origin can develop their full potential as
Our Values
Created in 1986, Enfield’s oldest Caribbean association. At the heart of our core values are working for racial equality, valuing diversity, and building good community relations.
Structure, Governance and Management
Enfield Caribbean Association is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), registered with the Charity Commission and governed by its constitution, dated 27 October 2015.
ECA Annual Report and Financial Statement Registered Charity No: 1164139
Membership of the ECA is open to anyone who is interested in furthering its purposes and who, by applying for membership, has indicated agreement to become a member and accepts the duties of membership. If the CIO is wound up, the members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities.
The trustees, who may exercise all the powers of the CIO, manage the charity's daily affairs.
The trustees who served during the year are shown on page 2 of this report.
Risk Management
The trustees have reviewed risks relevant to the charity and have updated and added to the range of policies and procedures. Any risks identified are reported to the Trustees and decisions made on how to minimise risk. New staff and volunteers underwent Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) police checks during the year. The volunteers at the Luncheon club have also completed the Food Handling level 2 training.
Financial procedures are adhered to by trustees, associate trustees and staff and are currently under review. The Charity has a healthy balance of nearly £15,000.00. These funds have accrued due to sales of the Windrush book, donations, membership fees and monies raised at Quiz Nights. These funds have enabled us to continue our work with the community and fund events such as Windrush Day, Black History Month, and Careers Days in schools. The trustees have actively sought additional sources of funding and have been able to raise funding for several ongoing projects.
The 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 ECA’s core activities 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.
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 benefits.
Related parties and co-operation with other organisations
None of our trustees receive remuneration or other benefits from their work with the charity. Any connection between a trustee or senior manager of the charity with its members must be disclosed to the full board of trustees in the same way as any other contractual relationship with a related party. In the current year, no such related party transactions have been reported.

Registered Charity No: 1164139
Volunteers
During the period ended 31 March 2025, the ECA trustees and associate trustees continued to hold both face-to-face and virtual meetings to continue our work. The charity relies a great deal on volunteers to support its regular and one-off activities. During this reporting period, 35 active volunteers, some of whom are trustees, or associate trustees of ECA supported the organisation.
Internal and external factors
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our donors—whether through financial contributions or generous in-kind support. Your gifts have empowered us to continue our mission and expand our impact over the past year.
Special thanks to:
Financial Donors: Gloria Blackman, Sheila Hamshaw, Lincoln Roberts, Ian Phillips, Sheree Yapp-Davis, Mark Allcock.
In-Kind Contributors: Bevin Betton, Unite in Fitness, Chicken Shed Theatre, Beverley Levy, Avril Nanton

Trustees and their responsibilities
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 meets the needs for which it has been set up.
Activities and Achievements
We are pleased with ECA’s achievements during the reporting period, they include:
1. National Lottery Development Fund
We were delighted to have gained funding for Development from the National Lottery Community Funds of £114,410 over an 18-month period. This has enabled us to:
-
appoint two members of staff, Alfa Balde and Henry Gaspard as senior charity coordinators. They will handle the operational aspects of the charity and play an active role in our fundraising, managing projects, monitoring and developing our activities. They will also develop the Windrush brand.
-
secure an office space in Community House for our staff to work from.
-
increase the outputs at our regular events including luncheon club, Exercise classes, Windrush Day, Black History Month and Quiz nights.
-
fundraise – in order to deliver our activities over the 18-month period.
The original bid was for a larger amount to support our projects over a 5-year period. We are hoping to achieve the outputs and gain a further three and a half years of funding at the end of the 18-month period.
- A major focus this year was advancing our digital transformation programme , which has already delivered tangible benefits across the organisation.
Following our initial implementation of Microsoft 365 in 2023–2024, this past year has seen us expand and embed the platform into our daily operations, resulting in increased efficiency, better coordination, and stronger governance. We now use Microsoft Planner extensively to manage events such as Windrush Day, Black History Month, Careers Day, and fundraising campaigns. Tasks are assigned and tracked collaboratively, improving communication, transparency, and delivery. This programme has helped us transition from manual, fragmented systems to a professional, digital-first charity environment, supporting both day-to-day efficiency and long-term sustainability.
ECA Annual Report and Financial Statement Registered Charity No: 1164139
Our goal is not just to adopt technology, but to use it ethically and strategically, ensuring it supports our mission to reduce isolation, support community, and amplify underrepresented voices.
OneNote has become our central tool for documenting ECA’s Operational Processes. This makes it easier to onboard new stakeholders and feeds into the sustainability of the organisation.
Having launched Salesforce in 2023–2024. This year, we made significant strides in fully embedding it into our core operations. We have expanded our use of Salesforce across all business areas and services, including Lunch Club, Membership, Volunteers and Events. As we scale up our Fundraising Salesforce will play an important role in helping us to manage the fundraising process. All stakeholder data is stored securely, helping ECA meet data protection and accountability standards.
Salesforce continues to be a powerful enabler of professionalization within ECA. As we look forward, Salesforce will remain central to how we scale up our programmes, manage stakeholder relationships, engagement and deliver on our mission.
As we continue our digital journey, we are exploring how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can enhance our impact and reduce administrative burden. While the adoption of new technology has been slower than anticipated, we recognise the importance of supporting our team and volunteers through this transition. In the coming year, we will increase access to training and provide ongoing support to drive adoption of our digital tools.
Our goal is to streamline internal processes, increase automation, and reduce time spent on routine administrative tasks. This will free up valuable time and capacity, allowing us to focus more on engaging with our stakeholders and delivering meaningful impact in our community.
-
Our online presence continues to increase. We continue to update our website https://theeca.org.uk with news and blogs, and events on the calendar page. We have added new functionality to the website, including the ability to pay for Windrush Books and our events (Quiz Night, Black History Month and Windrush Day events) via PayPal. We regularly get 1.5K visits and 600 unique visitors per month on our website.
-
The purpose of our Careers days is to raise students’ aspirations by introducing them to professionals they would not normally have the opportunity to meet. We held a Careers Day at St John and St James C of E Primary School on 13[th] June this year. Workshops were led by a nutritionist and a sports Influencer. The students also met a diverse range of professionals, including a doctor, an accountant, marketing specialist, and an influencer. The students responded well and voiced the view that the day was very useful and opened their minds to new possibilities.
ECA Annual Report and Financial Statement Registered Charity No: 1164139
-
The weekly luncheon club continues to be one of our primary ongoing activities. Since the luncheon club has been operating from Green Towers Community Centre in Edmonton Green, our numbers have increased, and we now have at least 20 regular attendees. Each week there is seated exercise to music and a hot two course Caribbean lunch is served. There are different activities, including quizzes, entertainment, talks from local medical specialists and local community groups. In October 2024, we organised a trip for the elders to Simmer Down reggae party at the South Bank, which they thoroughly enjoyed.
-
The weekly exercise class, led by Jackie Dyer, a local Zumba tutor, is extremely popular. It takes place every Thursday from 11am to 12pm at Unite Fitness Centre, Bush Hill Park. Classes were attended weekly by an average of 9 -11 members.
-
ECA trustees, Oveta McInnis, Cedric Levy and Dionne John sit on the Enfield Stop and Search Community Monitoring Group (CMG) aimed at scrutinising the Stop and Search Police procedures and their disproportionate use against black people and their effectiveness in reducing crime in Enfield.
-
Finally, we held two fundraising quiz nights, in November 2024 and recently in May 2025 at Green Towers. The questions covered general knowledge, sport, music, current affairs, celebrities, Africa and the Caribbean and Food. A great deal of fun was had by all. Patrons requested more regular quizzes. We raised a total of £932.00
Plans for 2025 – 2026
Black Film Club
The Black Film has taken off this year. We plan to screen a film each month in partnership with the Dugdale Arts Centre. This new initiative has brought the community together to enjoy film and aid social interaction. We will continue to include a kids film every 3 months with after film activities. The programme of films for the year is listed on the ECA website.
Relaunch and expansion of our social media sites .
This is an exciting development. The senior charity managers are leading this development. We aim to have regular inputs into Facebook, Instagram and TikTok to increase our reach into the community and share information about our activities and those of the wider African Caribbean community.

Five-year Strategy Plan and Vision
1.Social Media Strategy:
We are developing a social media strategy to support our programme of activities and the ECA brand. In addition, to reach out and develop relationships with younger people and professionals, to encourage them to volunteer and get involved with ECA.
2.Windrush Voices sub brand:
Over the last few years, ECA has produced two Windrush books, an 80 minutes Windrush Voices documentary film, a Windrush Voices mobile exhibition, a free Windrush Teaching Resources for Secondary Students on Times Educational Supplement (TES) website and podcasts. We intend to pro-actively start marketing these products and resources to both our key target audiences, as well as the wider society.
3. Economic Empowerment
Generate sufficient assets to enable the organisation to achieve our objectives
Develop and implement a fundraising strategy with clear aims and objectives to secure funding from various grant providers locally and nationally to further develop the ECA’s organisational structures and support networks, including working towards contributing to the setting up of an African Caribbean centre.
One of our future goals is to achieve core funding to enhance our work and provide sustainability for ECA. We are currently writing bids to achieve this aim.
4. Community Engagement
ECA aims to develop and build stronger partnerships with appropriate organisations offering specialist and professional services to the community. This may include other African-Caribbean community groups across Enfield, medical professionals and local community groups.
We also plan to support our community in managing and raising awareness to health initiatives run by organisations and bodies in Enfield with the aim of reducing health disparities.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Enfield Caribbean Association
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31[st] March 2025, which are set out on pages 14 to 18.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees 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(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you as 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:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the account
1. Accounting basis
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). ECA 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 note(s).
b) Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The Charity trustees are of the view that measures taken subsequent to the year-end to reduce operating costs and successful in applying for continuation funding have secured the immediate future of the Charity for the next 12 to 18 months and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.
2. Cash Flow Statement
The trustees have taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 (revised) from including a cash flow statement in the financial statements on the grounds that the charity is small.
3. Income
Income is recognised in the period to which it relates, unless specified otherwise by the funder. Project funding is, in general, repayable if not expended within the relevant project. Such income is only recognised to the extent that it ceases to be repayable. The income is accounted for on a receivable basis.
4. Resource Expended
Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities inclusive of VAT which cannot be recovered. Direct charitable expenditure include includes the direct costs of the activities. Where such costs relate to more than one functional cost category, they have been apportioned in line with the direct costs of the relevant service.
5. Fund Accounting
Fund accounting unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work. The charity has no designated funds.
6. Support Cost
Allocation of support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back-office costs, finance, personnel, and governance costs, which support the Charity activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 15.
16
ECA Annual Report and Financial Statement Registered Charity No: 1164139
