||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|TO ADVANCE THE EDUCATION OF THE<br>PUBLIC IN THE SUBJECT OF SOCIAL<br>INCLUSION AND COMMUNITY<br>COHESION AND TO PROMOTE SOCIAL<br>INCLUSION FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT<br>BY PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM<br>BECOMING SOCIALLY EXCLUDED,<br>RELIEVING THE NEEDS OF THOSE<br>PEOPLE WHO ARE SOCIALLY<br>EXCLUDED AND ASSISTING THEM TO<br>INTEGRATE INTO SOCIETY, AS WELL<br>AS TO PROMOTE RESEARCH FOR THE<br>PUBLIC BENEFIT IN ALL ASPECTS OF<br>THE SUBJECT AND TO PUBLISH THE<br>USEFUL RESULTS|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|To further the aims of the foundation,<br>applications for grants are invited from<br>charitable organisations, and are<br>distributed annually, as funding allows.<br>However as it became clear into the new<br>year of 2021 that the continuing social<br>effects of Corona would mean poor<br>participation in the application process, it<br>was again agreed among the trustees to<br>postpone the March grant application<br>process.<br>This was also the agreement in June since<br>the ongoing negative effects of Corona<br>virus on Nudge Factory Ltd’s profitability,<br>with the company being the main source of<br>income stream for the charity, would mean<br>no additional funds coming to the<br>foundation.|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity|Para 1.18|The trustees continue to make decisions<br>while having due regard for the Charity<br>Commission’s guidance on public benefit.|

|**Achievements and Performance**|||
||SORP reference||
|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|With there being insufficient funds available<br>to do another two rounds of grants (at<br>£2000 per round), trustees decided it would<br>be preferable to only start the process<br>again when we are in a position to offer two<br>rounds in a year. This would mean that<br>grant recipients/ participants in the<br>application process would perceive a build<br>up of some continuity in the process.<br>Due to there having been a prolonged<br>period with no grants being paid, it will be<br>preferable to advertise any new grant<br>application process several months in<br>advance, to ensure the best participation<br>possible|
