Objectlves and actlvities
Resel is the expert national body for community-led welcome of refugees lo the UK. We work directly
with volunteers, community groups, local aLJthorilies, employers, 8nd charitie5 to provide strong
welcome and integration support lo newcomers. Informed by our 6xperience and the perspectives of
newcomers and volunteers, we advocate to key decision-makers. shaping policy and practice lo
enable more an(5 beller welcome. We work in partnèrship with a host of civil society organisalions lo
inspire volunteers and grow the number of comrnunities who are ready to welcome.
Our charitable objectives are..
Providing relief lo refugees, and preventing or relievin9 POV&rty among them, by working with
others l&.g. ¢ommunily groups. charities, businesses, individuals} in ways that meet refugees,
needs.
Supporting refugees in key area5 necessary lo their successful integration in UK communities,
including education and training, health. employment, housing, and SDcial connections.
Edu¢aling the wider public about issues that face refugees or asylum seekers in the UK, and
thereby promobng equality and diversity for tho public benefit.
These objectives primarily are 8¢hieved through Dur work developin9 and championing community-led
welcome Ihrough the Comrnunily Sponsorship and the Homes for Ukfftine schemes.
Community Sponsorship is a scherne enabling citizens and communities acro55 the UK lo welcome
a refugee family lo their local area, supporting tham as they rebuild their lives in this country. Community
Sponsorship ICSI is a safe and legal rgsettlement route, which complements other forms of resettlement
managod by government and other agencies. Reset champions and supports Ihe development ol CS
acros5 the UK. This involves working with and through others, as well as directly with local CS groups
lo provide help and guidance lo all thoso engaged in CS from group-formalion through lo the completion
of formal support and beyond.
Home5 for Ukraine allows people who are fleeing Ukraino with no family lies to the UK to seek
sanctuary through sponsorship by members of the public who can offer them a home, such as a spare
room, for al least six months. Through the visa application process, refugees can identify the sponsor
who will welcome them, who might be a friend, colleague. or olher Connection. Many refugees and
sponsors wishing lo be involved do not have an existing Connection like this. With Reset's key role in
bringing refugees and communities togelhor, and experience of trainin9 and readying sponsors, we
launched our Homes for Ukraine matching service for CDmmunily.led welcome in March 2022.
We review our aims, objectives, and activities regularly. This report describes our achievements and the
outcome5 of our work for the year ended 31 fiAar¢h 2024.

Achievements and Performanc
Context
In 2023-24 R&sel marked 5 years in operation and wel¢omed the 8rrival of the 1000th refugee through
Community Sponsorship. Working closely with civil society and government partners this year we
provided more direct support to sponsoring groups than any year previously. Complomenling this direct
support we have d&veloped and adapted our growing catalogug of training and self-guided learning
tailored made for community sponsorship and Homes for Ukraine. With successive years and with each
new sponsorship Re5el has grown it's institutional knowledge of the needs, challenges, and
opportunities of cornmunity-led wèlcome and evolved the infrastructure of support all along the
sponsorship journey.
Al the same time, this was 8 year of reflection on challenges past, present and future. With the
introduction of Homes for Ukraine and subséquently th8 Comrnunities for Afghans project, the
cornmunily-led welcome landscape has become more complex, making spreading awareness of Ihgse
processes more complicated. Reset regularly hears from groups, Lc>¢al Authorities and partner
organisations on cha11eng¢s, including access to affordable housing, long processing limes and access
lo benefits that represent sy51emic barriers lo further sponsorship. The housing crisis in particular has
raised serious questions for long-lerm supporters of ¢ommunily sponsorship about the viability of future
sponsorship.
Meanwhile as Russia's war in Ukraine grinds on, we have continued lo support Ukrainians setsking
sanctuary and those LJK families offering lo host them. As the news agenda moves on, the number of
potential UK hosts has fallen and enquiries from Ukrainians hav& also reduced. We have nonetheless
continued tc> provide matching services and tailored advice lo hosts Ukrainians still interested in
being matched. The UK government closed the Ukrainian Family Scheme in February 2024 and closed
the Ukraine Extension Scheme in May 2024, and we expect the services Reset provides under the
Homes for Ukraine Scheme to wind down next year. Resel has had to laco some difficult decisions on
how best to restructur8 the organisalion in this changing context.
As w& look ahead lo 2024-25, we are therefore refocusing on developing our engagement with both
current and new audiences and forming new partnerships lo spread the word of Community
Sponsorship which is at the heart of our organisation81 goals.

Updat• on Communlty Sponsorship
Community Sponsorship has always been al th& heart of what we do. Resel was created in 2018 10
support the government s¢heTne and ha5 since SUPPDrted all 1000 resettled refugees and the
communities that sponsorgd them through their journey.
In 2023-24 for many this journey began the previous year with groups forrning and completing part 1
training lo introduce them to Cc>mmunity Sponsorship. The sponsorship process is long with multiple
checks on group suitability, Homè Office and Local Authority consent, all ol which Reset provides direct
support to.
Training
We launched our Learnworfds e-learning platform during the first quarter. Our first course for groups
and Lead Sponsors was on safeguarding. This is training that was previously offered ollline bul became
self-pa¢ed in 2023.11 received early praise, with one participant in the first Sessions slating il was'beller
than NHS safeguarding Irainingl" and another 'lt was useful particularly when applying il lo my
volunteering in the sponsorship group. As someone with previous experience of safeguarding I would
have liked more of that.
Our Core Skills training continues lo prove popular amongst CS volunteers and evolves with Continuous
feedback from volunteers. Training this year included Arrival Planning, Trauma Infonnéd Practice. IOM
UK Adjustm8nt and Cultural Information Sessions. Und&rslanding Gend8r Based Violence, Universal
Credit Training, and Working Effectively with Inte￿reters. One participant in the Trauma Informed
Practice training commented that My understanding of trauma and how it may affect people, emotionally
and physically has greatly increased.
Overall we conlinue lo receive very positive feedback from those who allend our training, with 9501ts+ of
all allendses cotnmenling that our training is either'good, or'&x¢ellènl' A few participant comTnen15 are
highlighted below.
.5 really ènjoyed the training and appreciated the sharing of resoLJr¢es following the Iralning.
'1 ￿allY liked that Hannah gave us time to think and make notes and discuss our particular situation. I
fell also that il was inclusive and a¢¢epling of difference."
"Amina was a great facilitator. Listened lo all the questions, comrnenls and answered all Dur questions,
She was very welcoming, and the training content was detailed and informative..
'Excellent training ¢18ar and inlormalive.
'There were a number of things we we￿n't aware of, and Julia was very supportive in explaining and
send links through lor us to follow up.
Thank you- il was really useful and will help us lo be as prepared as possible for the family's arrival."
Resources
We also invested more in Ir8nslaling this year, as families being welcomad arè becoming more divers8
and use a wider range of languages, including Arabic. Dari, Farsi, Pashto, Kurdish Kurmanji, and Stsmali.
Our resources include an inlroduclory guide for refugees, budgeting lenplate, how lo obtain a driving
license, or How lo rent.. The checklist forrenling in England. Other examples include Nour s ex
ol life and education in the UK, Resettlement as a single parent, and the UK maternity experience,
We also continue lo develop our Experts by Experience work. We worked with a welcomed farnily in
London lo7 create several short films. including th& experience of starting a new school. The family also

spoke ol thèir expfyrience of fleeing Syria and being w&l¢omed through CS to the Mancunian Matters
newspaper.
Direct Support
We were also pleased to see the launch of the Home Office's Refugee Employability Programme IREPI
in September 2023, which give5 resettled refugees access lo employment support and coaching. R&sel
has been sharing information about this programme in our communications. as well as including the
relevant information on our training website. In the east of England we supported a group lo contact
thèir local REP representative, and the family member thèy sponsor is now attending regular sessions.
In London we assisted a group clarify eligibility lor a member of their sponsored family, liaising with the
Home Office and local REP organisation.
As part of our commitment lo provide support throughout the community sponsorship journey, Resel
continues to listen to and advocate for groups wel¢tsming refugegs and for families resettling in the UK
in the pre-arrival stages. Groups have highlighted a desire for more cultural understsnding of families
and their home countries, so we have been working with the IOM on cullure-based films and training
resources. We have also responded lo groups highli9hling issues around domestic violence in families,
and the challenges in supporting families experiencing such issues. We have supported rnany groups
lo navigate challenges with housing, cultural differences, and managing expectations. We have
¢ontinued to raise with partners and governmènt lh8 feèdba¢k that we hear from families about
misleading information they can receive prior to arrival, in som@ casès being told they would be living in
one location rather than whgre they are actually resettled. and issues around ESOL and void rant
payments.
We completed 149 posl-arrival sile visits with groups and ￿settled families in 2023-24 which provide
critical opportunities to engage with groups on challenges al various stages in the first year of
resettltsment. The indicators of inlegralion explored al these visits demonstrated how successful
comfnunily sponsorship is in providing families with tools lo access, among other things, heallhcare,
educalioll, benefits, language acquisitiori and employment towards a successful independent selllemenl
within the fabric ol UK society. The visits also allowed us to signpost volunteers to our resources and
identify new resources and training naeds.
Engagement
Reset continues lo collaborate and partner with the constellation of organisalions working in and
supporting community spc>nsorship as well as the broader relugtse supporting Community in the UK. FDr

attended the Caritas Portsmouth event on 'Welwming Ihe Stranger,, also as part of Refugee Week.
In 2023-24 we also hosted a Scotland networking event, aimed al bringing the CS groups in Scotland
together. We shared the reselllemenl experience of the South Downs Refugee Project group, as they
have reflected on how their group first formed in 2020, and now as they soon come to the one-year mark

Homes for Ukraine
While the Homes for Ukraine scheme diminished in scale In 2023-24, Resel has maintained its support
for hosts and Ukrainians s8éking sh8ller in the UK.
We migrated lo our own in-house matching system this year. Although we can now match faster, the
number of available hosts has rodLJced. This means that our focus has moved lo matching more
relationally rather than focusing on the speed of matches. Al any one time. we now have 10-15 hosts
available, which affect our matching rates. We have al50 audited our host data, meaning that matches
are happening faster than before, and fewer matches expire.
We have found that new hosts a￿ ￿qUestIng more specrfic requirements of potential guests. which we
carefully cha¢k lo ensure they do not break our guidelines.
During the year, we have improved our roquired e-learning for hosts. moving from a recorded webinar
to modular training, making il easi$r for hosts lo navigate through each subject. And we have expanded
our training offer. In February and March 2024 we collaborated with Refugee EdLJcale UK to provide
training on the transition lo the UK school system including Supporting Refugee Children in School and
Supporting Refugee Students in Further Education. During the school session, participants explored an

eligibility, access to edu¢aliona1 funding, housing support after hosting. and exténding the programme.
In February 2024, the Governmenl announced changes to the Homes for Ukraine scheme, which meant
we needed to update the resources on our Homes for ukra￿ne website, in English and Ukrainian, to
match the new government policy.

Fundraising
Th8 ¢harily does not carry out significant fundraising 8clivilies. Reset does not engaga professional
fundraising or COTnmercial participators to carry out fundraising activity nor engage in fa¢e-lo-fa¢e or
telephone fundraising. Reset's approach lo fundraising has taken account ol the Code of Fundraising
Practice issued by the Fundraising Regulator. Resel has received no complaints about ils fundraising
activities either during th8 financial year or subsequenily.
Reserves policy
The purpose of the Reserves is firstly lo operate as a Working balance to help m8n8ge the imp8cI of
uneven cash flows and. secondly. to provide a contingency to cushion the impact of emerging or
unforeseen events or genuine emergencies.
In addition, the Trustees want lo ensure that in an unlikely event of the organisalion ceasing its
operations, Résèt has enough unrestricted reserves for its winding down costs. These Would include
employee redundancies, liabilities towards suppliers and the legal costs of winding down. Whilst this is
the absolute minimum, the Trustees aspire to building additional reserves lo protect the organisalion
from any short-term funding volalilily and lo enable Reset lo be able lo fund any short-term bul critically
mportanl activities. The Trustees have agreed lo build and sustain R6set's financial reserv&s al a level
gquivalenl lo three month's operating costs. Th& present levels of free reserves available lo Ihfj Charity
are in line with the target reserve.
Invastment policy
Given the currenl18vel of funds available lo the ¢harity, banking f8cililies provided by HSBC meet the
charity's current mquir&menls for maximi5ing earned inlerest and in51anl access.
Risk Management
Resel recognises that working within commLJnities and with refugees fleeing war, conflict, and
persecution that eff&¢live oversight and mitigation of risk is vital, wo maintain a register of risks and
controls which are reviewed regularly by Trustees.
Key risks idèntified and rnanaged for this year included..
Staff turnover, recruitment and relenlion.. closely linked with Dur need for funding, most ol the
51aff are on fixed term contracts which is challenging when coupled with the ¢omplex workload
we carry. We have invested in staff wellbeing and offered a subslanlial training budget to aid
staff retention.
Inforrnalion management.. we have further developed our new dalabase system to help us better
track and manage relationships with community sponsorship groups and stakeholders.
Diversifying incorne and securing longer term organisalional funding lo ensure Reset's future:
ihis remains a key concern.

Accounting policies (continued)
Incoming resour¢e$
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entillemenl has
passed lo the charity., il is probable that the econDmic benefits associated with the Iransactitsn will
flow to the charity and the amounl can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are
applied lo particular categories of income..
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of enlillemenl to the
gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
18gacy in¢ome is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is
impractical lo measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor
or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts
when received if the valutr Can be reliably measured. No amounts are inclLJded for Ihe
contribution of genefftl volunteers.
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the
contracted service. This is classified as unrestricled lunds unless there is a conlraclual
requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and retumed if unspent, in which case
il may be regarded as reslricled.
Resources expended
ExpendilLJre is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. ExpenditLJre includes any
VAT which Cannot be fully recovere(l. and is classified under headings of the statement of financial
activities to which it relates..
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising aclivilies, events, non-
¢haritsble trading aclivilies, and the sale of donated goods.
expenditure on charitable activities includes all co$15 incurred by a ¢harity in undertaking
activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of ils beneficiaries, including Ihtsse
support costs and costs relating lo the governance of the charity apportioned lo charitable
acts'vities.
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related lo raising funds forthe Charity
nor part of ils expenditure on charitable activities.

allribulable lo a single activity are allocated directly lo that activity. Shared costs are apportioned
between the activities they contribute lo on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tanglbl• assats
Tangible assets are initially recorded al cost, and subsequently slated at cost less any accumulated
epre¢iation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried al revalued amounts are recorded

Year ended 31 March 2024
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revalLJalion, is recognised in other
recognised gains and losses, unless it revèrses a charge for impairmènt that has previously been
recognised as expenditure within the slalemenl of financial aclivilies. A decreaso in th& Carrying
amount of an assal as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses,
except lo which il offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within
other recognis&d gain5 and losses on the slatemenl of financial activities.
D&preclation
Depreciation is calculated so as lo write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value,
over the useful economic life ol that asset as follows..
Compijters
1 O0Q/o straight line
Impalrment of flxed assets
A review for indicators of impairmenl is carried out al each reporting date. with the recoverable
amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the Carrying value exceeds the
recoverable amoLJnt, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for
possible reversal at trach reporting dale.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible lo estimate Ihe recoverable amount
of an individua5 asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit
to which the asset belongs. The ¢ash-gener4ling unit is the sm8llesl identifiable group of assets
that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows
from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment lesling of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the
acquisition dale, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from
the synergies of the combination, irrespective ol whether other assets or liabilities of the charity
are assigned lo those units.
Debtors and Prepayments
Trade and other debtors are recognised al the settlement amount due after any trade discounts.
Prepayments are valued al the amount prepaid net of any discounts.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised Whe￿ Ihe charity has a present ob5igalion resulting from
a past evenl that will probably result in th& transfer ol funds lo a third party and the amount lo
settle the obligation can be measured or eslimaled reliably.
Contingent liabilitias
Conlingenl liabilities are either possible obligations that will probably not require a Iransler of
economic benefits. or present obligations that may, bul probably will not, requir8 a transfer of
economic benefits.
11 is not appropriate to make provisions for conlingenl liabilities, but there is a chance that they
will result in an obligation in the fLJlure. Assessing the amount of liabilities that are not probable is
judgemental, so contingent liabilities are disclc>sed on the basis of th8 known maximum
exposur8.
