## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**_ 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Charities Act 2011 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the CIWA should undertake. 

## **Purposes:** 

CIWA’s purposes as set out in the objects contained in its constitution are to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by working with people in Wales who are socially excluded on the grounds of their ethnic origin, age, disability, ill health, poverty and other personal circumstances, in particular members of the Chinese community, to relieve the needs of such people and assist them to integrate into society, in particular by: 

1. Promoting community cohesion, both within the ethnic Chinese community and the wider community. 

2. Delivering to and representing the Chinese community including disabled people, children and young people as well as elderly people, in planning and service delivery to ensure their greater well-being. 

3. Supporting members of the ethnic Chinese community facing disadvantages to address the inequalities that they face to participate fully in society. 

4. Promoting both Chinese and Welsh cultures and heritage. 

5. Having due regard to the provisions of the Equality Act. 

## **Public benefit:** 

When reviewing its objectives and aims, reference is made to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit, the trustees consider in detail how planned activities contribute to the aims and objectives set out in the organisation's constitution. 

## **Summary of principle activities:** 

CIWA is a community-led grassroots association. CIWA has its head office in Swansea. Since its establishment, CIWA has gone from strength to strength and has become the first contact point for residents with Chinese heritage in Wales. 

We have been developing services to meet the changing needs of the Chinese communities in Wales. We meet our charitable objectives by providing core services including language services alongside advice, advocacy, an information service and case referral. We also organise social, cultural and educational activities and participate in the promotion of a diverse, multi-cultural society. We offer wellbeing services including multilingual counselling service, physical and social activities. CIWA facilitates several social groups including Autism Support Group, Elderly Group, Parents Group, Youth group, After School Club and Sports Club. 

We provide volunteering opportunities for community members to give back and help the charity support the communities. We also offer student internships and paid work placements to help young people gain employability skills and work experience.

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**_ 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Year in review:** 

COVID has remained the key issue for the duration of 2021-2022. We continually maintained a high level of infection control in all the activities we delivered. In line with Welsh Government and local health boards’ up to date guidance and restrictions, CIWA’s face-to-face activities were still very limited. CIWA’s head office was for essential appointments only and all staff and volunteers have been adopting a hybrid approach to deliver our services. 

With our outstanding support to the ethnic Chinese residents in Wales, CIWA is being recognised for the value of our existence by a number of external sources and successfully applied for funding to retain our core services and develop new projects to meet the community’s changing needs. We have highlighted the key funded projects and funders below. 

## **Information and Advocacy Services** 

CIWA has been continually running the “ **Stand Up For You”** Project. This is a two-year advocacy project funded by **The National Lottery Community Fund People and Places’ Medium grants** , started in October 2019 and concluded successfully on 1st October 2021. The advocacy service is continued with the funding from the Postcode Community Trust for one more year and we are seeking for further funding to retain this project to meet the ongoing needs. In the reported period, there have been 578 instances of advocacy recorded, with 345 unique clients. The team started to resume in-person support on a booking-only basis and followed the guidance of the Welsh Government to ensure safety of staff and clients. We continually promoted the latest COVID guidance and vaccination. To increasing awareness of the challenges faced and make our voices heard in many contexts, we also continued to speak up for the community on a regional and national level. 

With new funding from **Moondance Foundation,** CIWA successfully retained our “ **Benefit Advice** ” Project for further one year to give direct support for the Chinese community members who were struggling with their financial circumstances, associated with poor mental health. 

We also received a small fund from **Comic Relief Global Majority Fund** to provide advocacy and counselling sessions for people who experienced Hate crime. 

## **Wellbeing Services** 

Older People Wellbeing: With new funding from **NHS Charities Together** , CIWA successfully extended the “ **You Matter** ” project which aimed to promote positive mental health and wellbeing of ethnic Chinese people focusing on older people and people facing mental health issues. We offered regular social and physical activities and provided online counselling sessions. In line with the further easing of COVID restrictions, CIWA gradually tried to organise small-scale face-to-face activities in order to reduce isolation and loneliness when facing ongoing COVID. We successfully applied for the **Winter of Wellbeing Grant** from **Swansea Council** to run a Crochet workshop and a Calligraphy Workshop. We were also awarded a small grant from West Glamorgan Partnership Transformation to organise a 2022 Chinese New Year lunch gathering event for the older people who did not have opportunities to reunite with their family due to travel restrictions during the pandemic. In addition, we successfully applied for the **Volunteering Wales Grant Scheme** from **WCVA** to run a 9-month pilot project “ **Be kind Befriending”** which further developed our Volunteer programme and recruited volunteers to befriend the elderly. 

Children and young people: In response to the dramatic impact of COVID on children and young people’s mental health, we successfully applied for Children’s Mental Health Funding from **West Glamorgan Partnership Transformation Fund** to run “ **Care For Our Children** ” Project to provide social and physical activities to promote positive mental wellbeing, and counselling sessions for any youth members who face mental health problems. 

Workplace wellbeing: In order to support the community coping with the pandemic, our team including our trustees, key volunteers and paid staff have been working tirelessly to provide services to meet the increasing needs. Due to the overloaded responsibilities and workload, plus we have expanded our paid staff members from 5 to 9, the whole team needs more support to encourage a better team spirit. We successfully applied the **Voluntary Service Recovery Fund** from **WCVA** and ran a six-month project to empower the current team members through bespoke training, coaching and counselling sessions.

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**_ 

## **Chinese Autism Support** 

This programme was set up to provide support to meet the needs of ethnic Chinese residents who are touched by autism and related conditions. Our vision is to encourage more and more Chinese people to speak out, work together to understand the condition of autism, and embrace difference while eradicating cultural stigma. 

With the great track record of supporting the autistic children, we secured our largest 5-year funding from **The National Lottery Community Fund People and Places’ Large grants** to retain and expand the **“Find Me** ” project which aims to provide a comprehensive advocacy service to the families with autistic children to have fair access in local services, especially education and health services, and to empower the parent carers to have a better understanding of how to support their children. In the first year of the project, we had 58 families registered with us and had 47 cases of oneto-one bespoke advocacy help. Gradually, once COVID-19 restrictions eased, we supplemented our online offerings with a range of activities for carers based in Swansea to provide respite from their caregiving roles. In addition, we provided monthly workshops for parent carers to gain more knowledge and enable them to be more empowered to advocate for themselves and for their children. 

Furthermore, we also secured 3-year funding from the **BBC Children In Need Large Grant** to run the “ **Allow Me** ” project from June 2021. It aims to organise regular therapeutic and outdoor activities to autistic children and their siblings, such as horse riding, surfing, cycling, hang on arts and day trips. 

We received a small fund from **FAW Trust** PAWB Fund to support a couple of young talented footballers from the autistic children group to reach their full potential in developing their football skills. 

We successfully applied for a small fund from **The Screwfix Foundation** to offer practical support to families with autistic children by having small improvements around their homes. 16 rooms were painted and two outdoor spaces’ safety were improved for our autistic families. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

CIWA’s total income for 2021/22 was £290,912. The restricted income was £279,160, which is about 96% of total income. The total expenditure was £255,089 of which wages and salaries accounted for £153,523. (61%). Total funds carried forward on 31st March 2022 was £63,853. The total unrestricted funds at the end of the year represent the Charity's free reserves and amounted to £28,391. 

The principal funding sources for the year were The National Lottery Community Fund, BBC Children In Need, Moondance Foundation, Postcode Community Trust, Global Majority Fund, The Screwfix Foundation, West Glamorgan Partnership Transformation Fund, NHS Charities Together, WCVA and Swansea Council. 

As a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) with gross income of over £250,000 during the financial year, the financial accounting method has changed from cash basis accounting to accrual basis accounting in accordance with the SORP. 

## **Going concern** 

Having considered budgets for the next twelve months, the trustees are confident that the charity will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future and consider that there are no material uncertainties about CIWA's ability to continue as a going concern. It is therefore considered appropriate by the Trustees to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

## **CHINESE IN WALES ASSOCIATION** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**_ 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three- and six-months’ expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in income, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. The reserves policy will be reviewed on an annual basis for this purpose. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

The trustees believe that the available assets of the charity are sufficient to meet ongoing items of expenditure and obligations not yet met. Due to the rising cost-of-living and lasting effects of COVID-19, the trustees will make sure the charity continues to fundraise to retain and develop much needed services to support the Chinese communities in Wales. CIWA will continually build and improve workplace culture and resilience to support staff, trustees and key volunteers’ wellbeing. CIWA will enhance the staff members’ fundraising skills and empower them to expand their work to reach out more beneficiaries. CIWA will continually endeavour to grow its reserves for sustainability by encouraging more donations and applying for more funding to enhance the organisation’s capacity and strengthen the management team. At the time of writing this report, the chair for the reporting period has stepped down, and an interim chair was appointed by the Board of Trustees on 1[st] April 2022. The board has then recruited an interim Chief Executive Officer to ensure the sustainability and further development of the charity. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

CIWA is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered with the Charity Commission on 30th October 2017. The charity was established under the Charity Commission model constitution: Constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation whose only voting members are its charity trustees. 

## **Organisational structure:** 

The charity trustees are responsible for the general control and management of the charity and may for that purpose exercise all the powers of the charity. The trustees give their time freely and receive no remuneration or other financial benefits. 

The trustees meet quarterly or whenever deemed necessary and responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. The day-to-day management of the activities and projects are delegated to the staff team. 

The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Mrs Xuehua Au-Yeung 

Dr Ching-Yi Chen Mrs Xinya Li Mr Christopher Evans (Appointed 22 October 2021) Professor Uzo Iwobi OBE (Appointed 30 January 2022) Dr Yan Wu (Appointed 30 January 2022) Jennifer Ken Yan Lam (Appointed 30 January 2022) Ms Yen Yen Lai (Resigned 30 September 2021) 

## **Recruitment and appointment of trustees** 

Apart from the first charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment of new trustees. 

In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the charity. Potential trustees are invited to attend trustees' meetings as observers and are given more details of the charity's aims and activities and, if all agree, they are then proposed as new trustees at the subsequent trustees' meeting. All appointed trustees are required to have an enhanced DBS check.

## **Qualifying third party indemnity provisions** 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud or error. The trustees have the responsibility to manage risk to sustain the charity and ensure that all its activities are risk assessed before they are carried out. Systems and procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Most significant is the external risk to funding which has led to the development of a strategic plan which will allow diversification of funding and activities. Internal control of risk is minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. All relevant policies are regularly reviewed periodically to ensure that they meet the needs of the charity. 

The trustees report was approved by the Board of Trustees.
