Objectives and Activities

SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document
Para 1.17 To promote religious and racial harmony for
the public benefit, in the Hall Green Area of
Birmingham and in other such parts of the UK
as the Trustees may from time to time think fit,
in particular but not exclusively, to families and
parents or carers with primary school aged
children and those children themselves (‘the
beneficiary group’) by promoting knowledge,
mutual understanding and respect of the
different races religious and cultures
represented within the beneficiary group by
facilitating informal and formal educational
events and meetings.
Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.
Para 1.17 and
1.19
The charity has been dormant this year.
The charity usually runs events/training at
which mothers and carers of primary school
children from diverse races, religions and
cultures have shared information about
themselves and their backgrounds.
More intimate events e.g. coffee mornings and
tea afternoons are directed at facilitating more
in-depth conversations; cookery events have
encouraged more reticent women to start
talking to each other by joining in and sharing
their knowledge; an event was held at which
local women showcased their handcrafts and
were able to learn about each others’ fashions
and beauty regimes, the emphasis being on
sharing information; an event was also run
about gardening. The charity also worked
alongside the local school’s HSA.
Regular events such as crafting and badminton
have been launched previously.
The knowledge gained by interacting with
people who have backgrounds is then
dispersed amongst the attendees’ friends and
families.
Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit

to the guidance issued by the Charity
commission on public benefit.

Achievements and Performance

SORP reference

Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 At a meeting on 24 April 2023 the Trustees
decided to wind down the operations of the
charity and spend all remaining funds on a
cause that fell within the objects of the charity.
The trustees agreed that the funds should be
spent on a project that would enable the key
objects of the charity to be carried forward by
Hall Green Infant School and the Quakers, both
of whom had been supportive of the charity
and had worked with it previously on achieving
its aims.
The chair of MAF is remaining as a single
trustee to explore the possibility of keeping
open the charity and passing it on to another
group of trustees, possibly via the Create
Partnership Trust, a multi-academy trust
working with four schools in deprived areas of
Birmingham with pupils from mixed
demographic backgrounds.
The remaining funds have been duly paid out
to the School to help fund a programme of
peer mediation training for pupils, teachers
and parents provided by the Central England
Quaker’s Peacemakers Project.
The Trustees were satisfied that they had
discharged their duties in accordance with
their statutory responsibilities and in
accordance with the charity’s constitution and
governing documents by taking this course of
action.
