## **Achievements**
Dalmar Heritage and Family Development is proud to reflect on another year of growth, impact, and commitment to our community. Through a wide range of innovative and inclusive programs, we have supported children, families, and individuals in building stronger, healthier futures.
## 1. **Supporting Families and Children with Learning Disabilities**
Dalmar delivered weekly online sessions for Somali-speaking parents of children with learning disabilities. Led by a qualified Special Educational Needs (SEN) consultant, these sessions provided essential guidance, emotional support, and practical advice. Many parents reported feeling more confident engaging with schools, understanding their children’s needs, and finding strength through community support.
## 2. **Health Advocacy and Access**
Partnering with The Bridge Renewal Trust and North Central London Integrated Care Board (NCL ICB), Dalmar provided targeted support to improve access to primary care:
- Assisted with GP registration, especially for unregistered or hesitant individuals
- Delivered one-to-one and group-based health guidance
- Facilitated community events in partnership with NHS professionals
- Promoted accurate information on vaccination and local health services
- Produced multilingual, culturally relevant health education materials
## 3. **Promoting Digital and Seasonal Health Services**
To reach vulnerable and underserved groups, Dalmar took part in health campaigns during the winter season. These efforts included:
- Raising awareness about NHS 111, warm hubs, and pharmacy consultations
- Encouraging use of the NHS App to streamline access to care and reduce system pressures
## 4. **Tackling Health Inequalities**
Our organisation held open conversations with community members to understand key challenges such as food insecurity and mental health stigma. We responded by signposting residents to local services that support wellbeing and encourage healthy lifestyles.
## 5. **Community Empowerment and Co-Production**
As a key partner in the Healthy Neighbourhoods Programme (Theme 1), Dalmar has worked to ensure that local voices shape the design and delivery of health services. Our participation has strengthened collaboration between voluntary, community, and statutory partners to meet the real needs of diverse and deprived communities.
5
## 6. **Academic and Emotional Support for Children**
Dalmar continued to offer essential academic and wellbeing support to children aged 1–18 and young people with special needs up to 25. Programmes included:
- Academic tutoring and school-time assistance
- Emotional intelligence and resilience training
- Speech and language therapy with qualified specialists
- Extracurricular activities in arts, sports, and life skills
These services help young people build confidence, creativity, and strong social connections.
## 7. **Advancing Social Enterprise for Long-Term Sustainability**
This year, Dalmar has taken major steps to develop its social enterprise model. As a second-year participant in the School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE), our organisation has strengthened its knowledge of social business strategies. We are working toward increasing income through trading activities while remaining true to our mission. This growth supports our long-term sustainability and allows us to expand services in a financially responsible way.
## **Conclusion**
Dalmar remains deeply committed to delivering inclusive, compassionate, and forward-thinking services. We are thankful for the strong partnerships, dedicated supporters, and the trust placed in us by the communities we serve. With a solid foundation and a clear vision for the future, we will continue to grow our impact—empowering individuals, supporting families, and building a healthier, more connected society.
## **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 5 volunteers assisted with our on-going activities. We wish to thank our volunteers for their loyal support and contribution.
## **Future plan**
The charity is planning to recruit more trustees to strengthen governance. We will continue to apply for funding to sustain the organisation activities.
We are participating in a scale-up program for social enterprise schools. These programs not only facilitate the growth of our educational initiatives but also pave the way for the development of additional social programs, such as sewing groups and reading groups, which hold potential for becoming successful social enterprises.
Signed on behalf of all members,
Mr Nur Osman (Trustee) Date: 09/07/2025

## **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 2025, which are set out on pages 8 to 13.
## **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:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity
- Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **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:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
- • to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
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.
