The organisation is a constituted community organization. It is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales and is governed by its Constitution adopted on 1st September 2014.
Membership
Full Membership of SAWA is open to all constituted women refugee community organisations in West Midlands that agree to support the aims of SAWA. Associated Membership is open to any female adult who is interested in furthering the work of SAWA. Only Full Members have the right to vote at Annual or Special General Meetings.

Sandwell African Women Association
New member organisations are sought throughout the network to increase engagement and the diverse candidacy of the Management Committee. To enable an increased pool of experience and skills on the Management Committee, nonvoting advisers, and up to 2 co-opted members, can be invited on to the Management Committee and provide additional skills and experience to assist in steering the organisation.
Use of volunteers
SAWA makes significant use of volunteers to carry out its work. Volunteers are involved in all aspect of the work, including youth work, education, facilities management and finance and administration.
Policies for induction and training
All volunteers receive a systematic and comprehensive induction to the charity and its work, allowing them to develop a good understanding of the requirements of the role and to settle in with confidence. All volunteers are given appropriate opportunities for developing their skills and knowledge to carry out their role effectively.
Organisation Structure
SAWA's Board members are responsible for making decisions on all matters of general concern and importance to the group including deciding on how the funds of the group are to be spent. The full Board met six times during the year (in a space of 2 months before next meeting). Given its wide responsibilities, the Board has a number of committees which meet between full meetings with each dealing with a particular aspect of the organisation's life, as detailed below.
The organisation has a management committee made of up to four trustees mandated by the General Assembly of members. The management committee is made of and appointed for a yearlong:
-

-
(3) Treasurer is responsible for financial controls
-
(4) Advisor is in charge of volunteers' recruitment and selection
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of Sandwell African Women Association (SAWA) to hold £3,000 in reserves (restricted & Unrestricted) for three months after the end of financial year to cover running costs and unforeseen emergencies. To achieve this, we will aim to put £250 per month into reserves from income until that level is achieved.

CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES
1. ADVICE & SUPPORT PROGRAMME
In spite of the chaos caused by the Covid-19 lockdown during the year 2020/21, a lot of normal delivery was achieved up until the middle of September 2021. From October 2020 up until Mid-March 2021, advice and support activities did happen as planned thanks to modern technologies and social media.The following is a brief summary of services we have delivered to our Service Users for the last whole year. We did our best to reach the aims and values of the organization in making sure we give the best quality of service to all our Service Users. Our objectives targeted disadvantaged and vulnerable BME women and girls from Refugee backgrounds.

SAWA currently supports over 170 families from the local area and 230 individuals. Among the individuals receiving support, 67 are elderly refugee women who suffer from mental health problems (trauma, dementia, stress, anxiety, depression, etc.)
Our support during the pandemic has been vital in helping reach older women who were less fortunate and vulnerable through this awful crisis.
Case Study
From October 2020 to September 2021, Sandwell African Women Association (SAWA) provided emergency support to elderly women who were at high risk of contracting coronavirus, or those who were adversely affected during lockdown. The organisation provided food supplies, essential items and raised awareness around how to protect oneself from the virus. The elderly women who received help were often self-isolating or disabled, meaning they were unable to go out to buy the items they needed and were reliant on volunteer support.
The team of volunteers at SAWA were running a telephone system which enabled easy access to recipients in needs, before arranging support. The organisation worked hard to cope with extra demand for services due to coronavirus and has also been hit hard financially. The team was unable to work from its normal hub - where all its equipment including phones and computers were stored.
Emergency Funds were secured from well-wishers, charitable Trusts and Foundations and have helped our organisation to purchase food, medicine, and essential items needed by elderly women in need – as well as covering volunteers’ expenses and transport.
Throughout the coronavirus crisis, we have tirelessly worked hard to keep the elderly women who needed our support safe. The financial support received from different sources during the pandemic has been vital in helping us reach older women who were less fortunate and vulnerable through this awful crisis.
We’ve received feedback letting us know the huge difference the group’s support was making in our community – help we wouldn’t be able to provide without the funds given by the benefactors.
2. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
Happy Sewers’ Club
Due to Coronavirus pandemic, the Happy Sewers’ Club at SAWA was not able to operate during the year 2020/21 due to continuous shortage in fund and social distancing regulations.

Sandwell African Women Association
Women’s & Social activities
Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, activities for lone mothers were not held during the year as all activities to bring women together to socialise, have fun together, etc. were banned by the government.
Girls Job Club
From March 2021 onward during the year of this report, SAWA delivered job club activities to develop “JOB SKILLS TRAINING TO REDUCE HOUSEHOLD POVERTY”. The organisation provided intensive support services to 17 young girls aged 18 – 21 years old to help them try to find work over a period of six to nine months after a long unemployment period during covid-19 pandemic. Project activities included:
(1) Establishing a young people’s Job Club for peer support.
(2) Run a weekly employability skills drop-in centre for these young people to get support and assistance they need using Zoom meetings where necessary (i.e. a self-help group with a range of social activities including befriending Internet coffee club for work, peer mentoring, practical work such as cookery club, sewing club, emotional support, provision of welfare advice and information, guidance, advocacy, general support and friendship which they needed to reduce the level of depression and isolation).
(3) Run a Focus group on ending mental health prejudices
3. HEALTH ADVOCACY PROGRAMME
Much of the work done by SAWA during the period of this report was to regularly contact service users over the phone (SAWA’s 10 multi-lingual volunteers have tirelessly worked with the elderly women in isolation to address any concern regarding housing, welfare, utility companies, etc.) as well as raise awareness on how to protect oneself to avoid contamination; run health awareness campaigns to improve health and wellbeing i.e. tips to well-being; regular check up on their routines i.e. wake up time, bedtime at usual time, eat at usual meal time; support on healthy eating to boost immune system via healthy cooking sessions over the phone, help to reduce worry and stress, etc.)
Gloria’s story
Gloria, 65, told us about the pressure she felt in needing to ‘achieve’ something during lockdown. She found the pressure she was placing on herself was too much, and just getting through the day was enough. Thanks to support received from Sandwell African Women Association (SAWA), Gloria says:
“Since being in lockdown I’ve been up and down. At first, I felt that there was a real pressure to come out of this period looking and feeling better than I have before. There was so much time that I needed to do something with it. All I was doing was putting needless pressure on myself.
I started to feel horrible about everything and soon recognised signs of my depression and anxiety starting to build back up. I couldn’t wake up on time, I was eating more, I was struggling to focus and kept breaking down.
SAWA helped reassure me that it’s ok not to feel great all the time. So I took some time out to do nothing – to reset. Volunteers kept regular contact over the phone to ensure I was staying well and to keep up to date on my needs.
4. REFUGEE AND MIGRANTS FORUM CAMPAIGN
Under this programme, SAWA supported 73 girls who were inactive and not participating in sport or physical activity already provided in the local community due to Covid-19. SAWA ran a Multi-Sport Club to get girls’ heart rate up during postcode lockdown. The project delivered these sessions online whilst the pandemic was still at its peak, and we later on transitioned to physical delivery in April 2021 when the government had lifted the postcode lockdown restrictions.
With access to technology such as Coach Now, Hudl, Zoom, Loom, and Cisco WebEx, our online exercises were mainly targeting young girls who were not very active but who wanted to improve their health. The project worked with 73 sportatively disengaged and hard-to reach BME young girls who have been affected by Covid-19, from the most deprived areas of Sandwell and Birmingham aged 16+ through multi-sport sessions (Tennis,Volleyball, Basketball, Badminton, Running and Physical exercise sport) with trained coaches from Sandwell and Birmgham areas. These Young girls had not enough time to exercise physically outside school environment leading to dangerous health risks by developing obesity (1 in 3 girls aged 16 who took part in the sport activity
8
Sandwell African Women Association
was overweight), and other uncomfortable body problems because of lack of exercises. Other girls have found it difficult to take part in sport activities away from home because of time and travel constraints during Covid-19 lockdown.
DIFFICULTIES AND SETBACKS DURING THE YEAR
In terms of challenges, projects management in times of Covid-19 pandemic appeared to be a real challenge. One of the most common challenges that our organisation faced was to do with the project schedule while assessing service users' needs due to COVID-19. We often saw that our COVID-19 response was having a knock on effect on decision-making time which was sometimes not well followed. Some covid-19 support responses required to make decisions with incomplete or rapidly changing data for example not being able to respond quickly to a call by a service user who tested positive. We had to apply due diligence precautious measures before response.
In many instances, we have had to reallocate resources, including project team members, to attend to the immediate surge of patients in their facilities. Additionally, in some circumstances, we had to temporarily suspend support to reduce transmission of the virus.
The coronavirus (COVID-19) impacts have tested the ability of our organisation to effectively deliver its projects and programs. Some of our projects and programmes adapted quickly and effectively, with trustees and sponsors able to pivot to remote working, while other projects and programmes have had substantial delays or cancellations. We have been successfully working remotely for over the period of lockdown. So, basically, it has become part of our DNA we move on after the Covid-19 disease has come to a stable stage. Our organisation has been forced to experiment remote work and thankfully as from now on arrangements are in place should another wave of pandemic strikes the country. With the right tools, methodology and organization now available, it won't be formidably an obstacle to operate if funding is made available.
FUTURE PLANS
After some difficult months at the beginning of this year, we have gone back to a regular schedule, with more social activities, and group meetings, in-person events, though some concerns still remain about the spread of COVID-19 especially for more vulnerable people.
During the lockdown, we have seen the importance of communities working together and how they can share ideas, skills, venues and equipment to support each other and for the benefit of the whole society.
Despite the challenges we are facing due to Covid-19, our organisation will continue keeping vital services running, providing advice, support, opportunities, and practical help.
In the months ahead, SAWA will continue to:
-
Provide emergency support to BME women living in Black Country who are at high risk of contracting Covid-19, or those who were adversely affected during lockdown.
-
Expand our search for fund for our other activities which didn’t take place during the year due to lockdown.
-
We aim to increase earnings from grants and other fund-raising activities and identify additional sources of income for shortfalls – either grants or earned. We will begin to build reserves account of between 3 and 6 months of average monthly turnover.
-
Develop smart collaboration and partnership working with other local BME groups to enhance the possibility of securing considerable income in capital funding to purchase an African Community Resource Centre (ACRC) where Africans could regularly come together to celebrate their cultural values.
We thank Care Link West Midlands for their continued support as we continue to share their office as well as helping our organisation to continue to grow and develop in becoming a more sustainable social enterprise to support women while using their premises for our office.

Sandwell African Women Association
Notes to the Financial Statements Year ended 30 September 2021
1. General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is 84 HILTON STREET, WEST BROMWICH, WEST MIDLANDS, B70 9TW, UNITED KINGDOM.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds. Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable, and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable, and entitlement is established.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
14
Sandwell African Women Association
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related

transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
