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 | After the COVID 19 restrictions were lifted in late 2021, our main focus was bringing the group back together. We invested most of our time reaching out to previous participants as well as organising sharing sessions and focus groups to attract new audiences and participants who might be interested in what we do. We resumed our choir rehearsals and vocal training sessions in Feb 2022 and we started to see people come through the doors. We continued with our song writing sessions and music production which we started in the COVID 19 period. This has resulted in us producing an album which we hope to release soon. We secured our first Arts Council Wales grant to fund our Welsh singing project Swn Llwythol. Swn Llwythol is a social initiative to integrate communities, embrace cultures and preserve heritage through a blend of Welsh choral singing fused with African rhythms and sounds. We also had multiple Soel Music gatherings and Worship circles between May and August with an average attendance of around 80 people. This gave us opportunity to engage with more people, helped to build networks and new relationship which was needed to |
strengthen group again. It also gave us the opportunity to share our projects and songs with new audiences. We also carried on planning and preparing for “Jamii 2” a metal health and wellbeing project by SSAP which we signed-up to partner with. Our role in this project is to use music as a tool to support people’s mental health & wellbeing within the community. This project is due to start within the next financial period.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of SOEL Connect (the Trust) for the year ended 30 September 2022.
Responsibilities As The Charity Trustees Of The Trust
You are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
Basis of Independent Examiner’s report
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
The accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
