Trustees Report for the year ended 1st October 2023
The trustees present their financial statements for the year ended 1st October 2023
General Community Work Support: We continue to provide an open-door policy to the community and throughout this year we were able to provide support with housing, financial issues, mental health support, general health and a listening ear to people in need. With the help of our volunteers, we are able to meet more responsibilities in our community outreach projects. This includes home visits to the elderly to keep them company as a lot of the time we find they are lonely and isolated. Being a bridge between those who do not know how to access the facilities offered by the local authority.
Kids Sunday Bible Workshop: Every Sunday from 10-12 the kids attended bible school where every week we educated them on different aspect of Christianity. This included activities such as storytelling, song, role play, dancing and games. The children thoroughly enjoyed this and we found ourselves having so many questions from the children than time allocated for the Saturday workshop.
Food bank: Our partnership with Local churches enabled us to create a food bank and continue to provide to the less privileged who were not able to afford basics such as food. Every Wednesday and Friday we opened the Charity to the public so they could have access to the food available
Supporting minority community : We have been assisting the community in West Norwood to find accommodation, school and directing them into the right agency to find employment.
Our Trustees and Management team continues to be strong and supportive and this has enable us to achieve many of the plans we set out for the year.

Trustees Report for the year 1st October 2023 (continuation)
Statement of trustees' responsibilities for the preparation of financial statements
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare their financial statements which show a true and fair view of the state of the charity affairs as at the year end and of the resources received and expended by the charity for the year ended.
In order to meet this requirement, the trustees must be satisfied that:
-
Suitable accounting policies are selected and then consistently applied;
-
Judgements and estimates that are made are reasonable and prudent;
-
Applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed;
-
Financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis unless it's inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue its activities
The Trustees are responsible for ensuring that proper books are maintained, for safe guiding the assets of the charity, and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The Board has reviewed the effectiveness of the system of internal control and there are no material weaknesses that would have resulted in losses, contingencies and uncertainties that require a separate disclosure in these accounts
