To promote for the benefit of the public the conservation, protection and improvement of the physical and natural environment. **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** 2. To promote for the benefit of the public in the Kelham Island area, in partnership with the police, the protection of people and property from, and the prevention of, criminal acts. 3. To promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society. Throughout the course of planning and managing our activities for this the organisation has very much kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee and strategy meetings. We have developed a variety of programmes and communication tools in order to reach and appeal to as many people in the community as possible. This is an ongoing process, we are learning all the time and we are improving and increasing these year on year. Our focus has been to address social isolation and exclusion, **Summary of the main** strengthening mental health and physical well-being through community **activities undertaken for the** team projects responding to emerging needs and requests such as **public benefit in relation to** nature conservation and river clean-ups, community bee-keeping, **these objects (include within** community litter-picks, community Christmas carols, a range of art **this section the statutory** projects, and this year the LGBTQ+ community and supporters. **declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance** We actively promote an open, caring and inclusive community and we **issued by the Charity** keep actively in mind when we develop new activities the definition of the **Commission on public** Charity Commission in our mission to tackle social exclusion (“ _being excluded from society, or parts of society, as a result of one of more of the following_ **benefit)** _factors: unemployment; financial hardship; youth or old age; ill health (physical or mental); substance abuse or dependency including alcohol and drugs; discrimination on the grounds of sex, race, disability, ethnic origin, religion, belief, creed, sexual orientation or gender re-assignment; poor educational or skills attainment; relationship and family breakdown; poor housing (that is housing that does not meet basic habitable standards); crime (either as a victim of crime or as an offender rehabilitating into society”_ ). ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** March **2012** **TAR** 3 All our activities and programmes are led by small teams of volunteers from the community. We also have a number of partnerships with the University of Sheffield that involves a number of departments providing resources, students and research for the community. You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; The more programmes we have developed have drawn in more community volunteers and increased the support from our local Council and charity funding bodies. Our latest project was the creation of “Kelham Pride”, a free one-day local event supporting the LGBTQ+ community and allies. This involved a very large number of volunteers from the neighbourhood. - contribution made by volunteers. ## Section D Achievements and performance March **2012** **TAR** 4 Section D Achievements and performance |**Summary of the main**
**achievements of the charity**
**during the year**|1.
The main local bridge, permanently pedestrianised in 2021 has been
further developed as a community space with a range of publicly
accessible events such as “Art on the Bridge”, skateboarding, and
Christmas carolling around a large community Christmas tree.
Subsequent to work in 2023 with a group of University of Sheffield
(UoS) Architecture students and professional detailed costings by a
quantity surveyor, significant funding has been found and
discussions are ongoing with Sheffield City Council to create an
urban regeneration “park”.
2.
The Arts & Heritage Trail: this is an ongoing public-private
partnership to tackle anti-social behaviour and enhance the public
realm that also included public waste-bins and a community
competition.
3.
Naomi’s Corner: This continues to be one of the most popular areas
for a diverse range of individuals and groups to visit, relax and
socialise. It also has a community book exchange. It continues to be
maintained by a local watering and weeding volunteer team from
KINCA.
4.
Community Beekeeping: this has gone from strength to strength and
the number of hives has been slightly increased. Sales of the honey
have made a significant contribution to the maintenance and costs of
the project.
5.
Green Kelham: this is one of our most popular programmes and has
several purposes: i) to steward the river and nature running through
the heart of the community, ii) to create new green spaces (we have
very few being in the city centre), iii) provide an opportunity for
people to get to know one another through exercise and fresh air, iv)
learn new skills.
Apart from continuing the existing programmes of river clean-ups,
community beekeeping and developing more green spaces, we
continue to develop a network of strategic and practical partnerships
with a range of local and regional groups that enable us to support
and develop inter-neighbourhood activities. Examples would be
working with the Environment Agency and the River Stewardship
Company to link up a chain of conservation and ecological projects
along the River Don. This year we have also worked with Riverlution
(a CIC) who bring their trainees to undertake river bank/conservation
skills on our historical Norman millrace and provide free services to
maintain the millrace, as well as supervise our own volunteers
working on the river and millrace.
6. “The Islander”: This is a full colour newsletter in a magazine format
steered by a local residents’ team of very skilled people. It is hugely
popular and contains local interviews, updates on projects,
opportunities for community participation, and local news. The
newsletter is funded by local council Ward Pot funds and donations.
7. Clean Kelham: our regular litter-picking project continued to be very
popular throughout the year.
8. “Kelham Pride”: this was the first year that we organised Sheffield’s
first big LGBTQ+ pride event (the first in the city since 2018). It was a
huge success drawing over 8,000 attendees over the free one-day| |---|---| March **2012** **TAR** 5 Section D Achievements and performance event. It required an enormous amount of planning and coordination over many months. It involved the local city council, police, emergency services, traffic management, local businesses, residents, scores of local volunteers, donors/sponsors, as well as local charities. It involved 11 workstreams with a volunteer core team of 22 and additionally 50 event volunteers on the day. We have received the go-ahead from the City Council and associated statutory bodies for organising another Kelham Pride in 2025. All our activities are steered by volunteers, we have no employees.

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under **section 145 of the Act** and 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. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: `o` to keep accounting records in accordance with **section 130 of the Charities Act 2011** ; and - to prepare accounts which accord with those accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
