| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | To advance in life and help young people through the provision of recreatonal and leisure tme actvites designed to improve their conditons of life. The advancement of educaton, including physical educaton, of young people in partcular but not exclusively by providing them with accredited training to become qualifed sports coaches which will then allow them to gain coaching experience on our projects and access opportunites for obtainingwork skillspartcularlyin sport. |
| 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 |
For the object of helping young people through the provision of recreatonal/leisure actvites many of our internatonal football projects as well as those based in the UK have achieved this objectve. The football projects we have delivered to schools in Zimbabwe and Thailand have allowed a number of school children (aged 8-13) to take part in structured & coached sports sessions that they may previously have not had access to in their lives. We have been able to do this by developing partnerships with schools and community organisatons in those countries to deliver coaching clinics that engage their young people regardless of ability level across diferent age groups. Although we deliver these sports sessions over a short tme scale we feel our projects help to address some of the gaps in physical educaton for children in developing countries partcularly those whose lives are afected by poverty. Our coaching clinics also help with their learning of fundamental movement skills which may not have been taught to them by their schools PE staf. Manyof the schools and |
| communites we work in do not have access to the resources that will allow the young people they serve to learn the A,B,C’s of movement correctly or to develop any sportng potental they might have. The young people, their families and their schools show great enthusiasm for the opportunity of being involved in football and other sports training with qualifed coaches. Along with our local projects in London which include provision in other sports as well as wellbeing/personal development actvites, these projects are always delivered with the ethos of social welfare by giving them the opportunity to experience the health, social and unifying benefts of sport & physical actvity. Beyond the technical sports tuiton we are giving them, the sessions promote the values of discipline, commitment, teamwork, cooperaton and sportsmanship. |

Achievements and Performance

| 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 | Following the junior cooking projects that the charity ran at Our Lady of Fatma Church in 2022 and the frst quarter of 2023, we received DfE funding to run a further 2 cooking projects at the church as part of the HAF funding programme for the 2023 summer & Christmas holiday periods. Our cooking/food educaton projects provide a range of unique benefts not just to the junior partcipants but also their parents/families by introducing them to healthy eatng optons on a small budget. This is partcularly important when considering that many of the families from the local estate are acutely afected by food insecurity/poverty. There was an intake of 14 partcipants on our project in the summer holidays and a further 13 partcipants on our Christmas holiday project with partcipants aged 9-16 years old from the White City Estate and surrounding Shepherd’s Bush area learning new cooking skills and preparing healthy meals that were also considered culturally appropriate_[using_ Halal meats & a range of Middle East and African recipes that are refectve of the demography of the local community]. In the classes they learnt how to make a range of dishes with supervision from our Head Coach and volunteers, whilst also learning the correct food hygiene/prep practces, cooking techniques and food presentaton. On the last 2 days of the project the young people selected their favourite dish (to cook by themself) from those practced on the frst 3 days. Their parents were invited to the church to watch them cook and sample their dishes. |
The charity has also supported Hammersmith & Fulham borough with its U14 Girls Football squad selection trials & squad training by providing coaching support at the sessions to help select and manage a borough squad for the London Youth Games Girls Football competition in June 2023.

Financial Review

| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | The charity’s fnancial positon at the end of this fnancial year is healthy despite the charity receiving less grant money in this fnancial period than the previous period. We received additonal HAF grant funding (£1026) to run 2 junior cooking projects. We were able to identfy a large enough cohort of young people that receive free school meals (one of the key criteria of the funding) and deliver the project to a community where there was a clear need for this kind ofprogramme. |
