Public Benefit

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

COVID-19 Impact on Communities

The reality of Covid- 19 and its continued impact on communities stretched beyond any timeframe that could have been foreseen. The London Community Response Fund developed further rounds of funding for the voluntary and community sector, bringing a much needed cohesive approach and prioritising funding to reach target communities. Young Brent Foundation ensured that groups working with the most affected communities were supported to apply for funding. Approx. 70% of the YBF membership are led by and/or work with Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities in Brent.

In June 2020, a report by the online mental health support service Kooth, indicated that the pandemic was then having a greater negative impact on the mental health of children and young people from black, Asian, and ethnic minority (BAME) backgrounds than their white peers. The report went on to suggest that BAME young people experiencing suicidal thoughts

Within the Plan, captured as priority 9, was an emphasis on with the rationale firmly located in the impact of COVID-19 on communities, Black, Asian and Minority ethnic communities and within that, the black communities of Brent. The focus and aim being to better understand the issues and challenges on the mental health of communities during the pandemic The BBCAP states:

Covid-19 threw a sharp and painful light on health inequalities, caused by structural inequalities. BAME communities are disproportionately affected by the pandemic in terms of contracting the virus, mortality rates and other life effects. The council, along with local and regional partners, will examine the full impact and plan for actions to reduce the disproportionate impact on BAME communities as well as identifying and addressing the structural

Young Brent Foundation secured a grant from the London Borough of Brent to distribute to voluntary and community organisations working with children and young people and their families as part of the wider support to those negatively impacted upon by the COVID-19 pandemic. The funding secured would pilot work around supporting children and young people, specifically, with respect to their mental health and wellbeing.

Financial review

Our finances are in good order with reserves which will be used to support the direct work we do to support the VCS youth services in Brent. Our core revenue came from London Borough of Brent, and we also secured additional revenue from a variety of sources of which 90% of this has been used to deliver support and services which directly impact on young people in Brent.

For the year ended 31 March 2021, incoming funds of £881,107 (2020: £605,926) were received and outgoing expenditure amounted to £778,407 (2020: £399,815). This resulted in net income for the year of £102,700 (2020: £206,111) and net current assets of £355,056 (2020: £260,050).

Structure, governance, and management

The Charity is a charitable incorporated organisation which is governed by its Charitable Incorporated Organisation Foundation Constitution.

The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of approval of these financial statements were:

B Asamoah- Russell S Balfour (Resigned 26 January 2021) G Bhattacharya (Appointed 26 January 2021) L A Brooking (Resigned 26 January 2021) I Burbidge (Appointed 26 April 2021) J Burey M del Carmen Llorente (Resigned 26 January 2021) D Coyle (Resigned 26 January 2021) M Curtis M Daya (Appointed 27 April 2021) A Farah (Resigned 26 January 2021) J Hall (Resigned 26 January 2021) R Harrison (Chair) A Harvey (Appointed 26 January 2021) K Olarewaju (Appointed 26 January 2021)

All new trustees undergo a series of familiarisation sessions allied to the review of the Financial handbook and their duties. This is carried out within the first 3-6 months.

Board meetings

The Board continues to meet formally each quarter with the CEO and Chief Operating Officer also in attendance. Sapna Makwana continues to do an excellent job in supporting the Chair, taking Board minutes and organising our meetings. We have a rolling calendar of Board meetings on which specific items are scheduled for discussion. We continue with our action log for each Board meeting to ensure Board decisions are followed through.

Staff

We had nine staff in this period: a CEO, COO, Digital Communications Officer, Trustee Support Officer, Youth & Community Manager, Youth Voice Co-ordinator and 3 Project Managers.

Trustees and Staff Awayday

We have also held an AGM as well as an Awayday involving all Board and staff. The purpose of this day was for the staff and trustees to: - Get to know and RECONNECT with each other, - REFLECT and take stock of what has been a particularly difficult period and - REVIEW the agreed strategy considering current and expected changes to the operating landscape for YBF. Most

The common themes that arose in discussion emphasise the need for the organisation to revisit how it describes what it does and to review how well the brand reflects that. There is a consistent theme of the need for improved storytelling and to ensure that the rich data that has been gathered is analysed. These themes could help to focus the business plan for the next 12 -18 months and will support YBF to increase its visibility and profile which will, in turn help generate more resources.

New Trustees

We are delighted to have join the Board of Trustees, Ian Burbidge, Gitanjali Bhattacharya, Mudassir Daya, Karmi Olarewaju and Angela Harvey. Each brings to YBF skills in income generation strategy, design thinking, youth and community cohesion and education.

Trustees who completed a 3 year tenure and retired - Julian Hall, Abdi Farah, Carmen Llorente, Lesley Anne Brooking, Serena Balfour, Danny Coyle. Without their support YBF would not be in the position it currently holds, and we are thankful for their dedication, skills, knowledge, and generous leadership.

Apart from the first charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained The value of three to 6 months expenses has been difficult to maintain in the last few years due to payment delays from donors and Covid-19 however the appropriate contribution/reserves fee is extracted from each payment as and when funding is received. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.

The Financial Sub-Committee has established a reserves policy as part of its plans to provide long term support to Young Brent Foundation. The Financial Subfunds that is freely available. As at the year end the charity had overall reserves of £363,565 (2020: £260,865), with £43,828 (2020: £88,232) being unrestricted. We will however continue to monitor this as the financial situation nationally for Charities and Foundations react to the ongoing global Covid-19 pandemic. In 2021/22, unrestricted income generated through fundraising amounted to £227,500, which is less than planned, however restricted income has increased to £815,887. This will ity to increase reserves to the target range. These figures are unaudited.

Principle risks and uncertainties facing the charity

Principle risks - Our finances are in good order with reserves which will be used to support the direct work we do to support the VCS youth services in Brent. Our core revenue comes from John Lyons Charity and the City Bridge Trust. Going forward the charity will need to secure further core funding streams as it aims to grow and thrive.

Uncertainties facing the charity - The Coronavirus, rise in energy bills and the high levels of families requiring support, all have an impact on the charities ability to thrive and grow through these trying times. As we look to grow and sustain our base in the borough, the charity will need to pivot and adapt in the changing times ahead.

The Trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.
