## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Future plans** 

Increasing our reach - Throughout this year we are focusing on reaching more people in need and are launching a social media campaign with talks, podcasts and infomercials. We want to raise awareness of the hope that recovery can bring, and the part that Kennedy St Foundation can play in helping people to recover from addiction. 

Increasing our capacity - We have already expanded our team, with part time roles for volunteer coordination and operations support. We have expanded the number of volunteers we have in place to support people and have grown a team of volunteers who are helping streamline our operations, marketing and governance. 

Increasing our income - We are setting ambitious targets to bring in more income this year, through fundraising, workplace training and donations. We have successfully grown our grant income this year already by 120 % from when we operated as a CIC, thanks to an increase in funding opportunities for charities and the support of our funding partners. 

## **Our Volunteers** 

We want to give a huge thank you to all of those who have volunteered their time this challenging year - we literally could not do what we do without you. 

## **Our Funders** 

We work with a range of sponsors who support us in a variety of ways, fundraising on our behalf, provide space, business resources, or provide actual business volunteers. We'd like to thank:

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Kennedy St Foundation** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Kennedy St Foundation ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 29 April 2020 to 30 April 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
