DALMAR HERITAGE AND FAMILY DEVELOPMENT Year Ended 31[st] March 2023

Achievements

We had a very successful year. This year, we carried out different projects and continued health and wellbeing initiatives to engage and empower locals, particularly women and children. In Enfield and Haringey, we offered workshops to the Somali community in an effort to lower obesity, type 2 diabetes, and high blood pressure. We worked on community projects addressing the stigmatising effects of mental illness, and we also published a book about raising awareness and providing information about mental health. We translated this into English and Somali, where they can get help.

We worked this year with VCS engagement led to co-develop a framework (or ‘tool kit’) that outlines why co-production is necessary what it involves,

who needs to be involved in service design and delivery, how it can be implemented, and what support needs to be available for service providers

We helped develop this tool kit together We attend ‘my health, my life: co-production’ Workshops Voluntary and Community Sector Forum:

The VCS Forum was a monthly meeting that brings together local community organisations and statutory partners such as Haringey Council and the NHS to discuss important topics for our communities.

This year Dalmar was part of Peer Researchers based in each of the six VCS Partners worked alongside the Community Researcher to:

co-design the research approach and tools; mobilise and bring targeted communities to participate in the research so they can raise issues which matter to them and set outcomes which are meaningful for their lives; facilitate/co-facilitate interviews and focus groups with participants; and collaborate with and amplify the voice of local communities who experience high inequalities (in reach, access, outcomes or experiences).

we held sewing classes and coffee mornings for these families with special needs children, giving priority to the parents of these kids. The parents got together to participate in crafts, learn how to sew, enjoy refreshments, and talk about their kids. They were able to discuss what had worked and hadn't for them in terms of supporting their children with special needs and share their own experiences in the process. The parents found it to be extremely helpful to be in this setting with other parents who are going through similar experiences. The older mothers would give younger mothers their more mature perspective by sharing their perspective. Additionally, we had one-on-one conversations with distressed parents who required a private space to discuss their circumstances and required support.

5

Most parents who participated in sewing activities progressed from never having touched a sewing machine to being able to operate the machine independently, cut and measure materials, and even make their own items. Three different dress designs, children's pyjamas, and two different pillowcase designs with attaching buttons were included. We got involved with the community because there are a lot of Somali families with kids who have learning disabilities. Down syndrome, autism, dyslexia, ADHD, and emotional behavioural disorders are examples. We spoke with a large number of parents who are concerned about their children who attend both mainstream and special needs schools.

We work with children to have different physical activity like Boxing club Our target group has a lack of activity due to barriers which relate to their circumstances.

This project was able the young people to be active while hanging with friends and meeting new ones, which will also make it as fun as possible for them and children had a positive attitude to sport and physical activity, and feel confident in their life They make friends and feel less isolated Have positive mental attitudes to the future and feel more self-confident Develop habits of exercise and they increase their levels of physical fitness.

Reserves policy and going concern

The Board has assessed the charity’s requirements for reserves in the light of the main risks to the organisation. As a result, the Board has approved a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed, should be held in reserve and maintained at a level which ensures that Dalmar’s core activity could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. The target reserve amount represents at least 6 months’ (26 weeks) expenditure and will be reviewed annually.

Risk management

The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:

● an annual review of the principal risks and uncertainties that the charity undertakes.

● the establishment of policies, systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the annual review; and

● the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.

The Trustees constantly review risks relevant to the charity. Any risks identified are reported to the Trustees and decisions made on how to minimise risk.

Trustees and their responsibilities

Charity trustees are the people who serve on the governing body of a charity. They may be known as trustees, directors, board members, governors or committee members. The principles and main duties are the same in all cases.

Trustees have, and must accept, ultimate responsibility for directing the affairs of a charity, and ensuring that it is solvent, well-run, and meeting the needs for which it has been set up.

Our volunteers

Dalmar is very involved in the community and relies on voluntary help. Around 4 volunteers assisted with our on-going activities. We wish to thank our volunteers for their loyal support and contribution.

Future plan

The charity has now been operational. The company set-up previously under the same name will be closed and now merged into the charity to continue its charitable operations. The charity is planning to recruit more trustees to strengthen governance. We will continue to apply for funding to sustain the organisation activities.

Signed on behalf of all members,

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Dalmar Heritage and Family Development.

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31[st] March 2023, which are set out on pages 8 to 12.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

have not been met; or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
