## Objective & Activities 

Tafflab’s Charitable Objects, as given on the Charity Commission website, are: 

“The relief of financial hardship by making grants of money for providing or paying for items, services or facilities, in relation to starting a business to students, who through lack of means, would otherwise be unable to initiate a business. 

To develop the capacity and skills of Welsh students, in socially disadvantages communities, in such a way that they are better able to launch a business idea. 

To help young people through the support of support, activities and mentorship which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals.” 

Applicants for Tafflab grants currently attend and are recommended by partner colleges. Tafflab interview to confirm eligibility, work with the Enterprise Champions employed by the colleges and provide mentoring by RSA Fellows. Regular meetings between mentors, mentees and champions confirm progress. 

Tafflab’s mentors are selected by and undergo Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks facilitated by the partner college Coleg y Cymoedd.

## Achievements and Performance 

10 students were selected for the September 2020 cohort – 1 from Coleg y Cymoedd; 4 from Coleg Gwent; 5 from Y Coleg Merthyr Tudful. It must be noted that this cohort looked to develop business activity during early- and mid-2021 when variable lockdowns resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic were in place. 

Mentors include previous recipients of awards alongside an established mentor base with significant experience and expertise across a range of industries. All mentors and trustees provide their time on a pro-bono basis. 

Tafflab participants who achieve success in business continue to comment on the benefits conferred by the mentoring and support of Tafflab. The contribution participants provide to their local economies through their business activities sits alongside a broader contribution they make to a positive perception of entrepreneurship. 

For the year ended 31 July 2021, Tafflab had income of £3,495 and expenditure of £3,944. Tafflab only makes grants to the extent its means allow, and its income to support its operations, including the giving of grants, comes from organisations, trustees and mentors. 

At 01 August 2021 Tafflab had cash at bank of £615.
