For almost all our first iwo years, we had only one full-time employee. Bashir Siraj, now our Chief Officer. With the
generous support of our funders. and the National Lottery in particular, we now have over t%¥elve staff. We have a
part-time roles ol Volunteer Coordinator and Administration Officer , and a number of part-time ease and support

Northern Da1ri8s Educational Trust, an Afghan Comrnunity Support Worker funded by th8 Leonard Chambertain
Tmst, a Kitchen Supervisor. and several kitchèn assistants. Towards the end ol the year, we gained funding, as part

posts on this programme By the end of the year, we had fourteen staff. thirteen were ￿fUgees., one is from the
host comrnunty. Hull.
Volunteer Programme
recruit8d another forty Volunteers over the y8ar to join our existing team. The￿ is a high tumover ol
volunteers, as p80pl8 rnove on. sometimes by the Home Offi(￿, or into employTh6nt, with Welcome House or
elsewhere.. or into education. Their contribution Is central to the Welcome House way of working 8nd setwee
delivery. Some come from the local cornmunity Iparticulady our valued ESOL tutorsl. but rnost volunteer8 ar
asylum seekers and refugees themselves. Thay come trom over thirty nationalities and keep us in touch with
many different refugee and asylum seeker communities in Hull. Th8y have huge experien￿ and skills to draw
on, frorn translakn.on services. to taking classes, to showing people round the City and out into the countryside,
to helping with the bureaucracy required to live in a UK city. Our Volunteer Programme provides opportunities
to enable asylum seekers and refugees to develop their skills and employability, and to contribute to the life ol
the community.
Financial review
Our financas have ￿cOVered strongly over th8 year. from a difficult start, enabling us to expand our activitie3
and support for refu98es and 85ylum seekers, while rebuilding our reserv8S to a healthy posrtion. Our balance
at tha stsrt of the year was around £26.000, and wè had to make limited cuts to a number of programmes The
security deriv8d from our th￿e-year National Lottery Grant lour only lon9er- tetm funding) enabled us to avoid
any rn0￿ dmstic measur85, and wè were fortunate to secure further income over theAutumn and Winter.
By Christmas. we wèrè In a much healthier position. with a balance of around £100,000, w& incr8asad
spending on our activites 5te&dily throughout the year. finishing with a balan￿ of £136,000 on 31 July 2024.
Of that, over £50,000 were unr85trict8d funds, enabling us to establish a Reserve ol months running costs,
approxiffl8tely £45,000.
It is the policy of the charity that Un￿StrICted funds which have not been designated for a specific use 5houk
be maintained at a level equivalent to belween Ihr88- and six-months, 8xpenditur8. Our Incorne h85 continued
to increase thi5 year, and we a￿ on target to achieve a reserve of th￿e months running costs by the end ol
the ¢urrent financial year. That Is a considerable achievement for a new charity, stsrting from scratch with no
established capitsl base or endowment. The tru5t8es consid8r that r858rves at this 18V81 will ensure that, in
th8 event of a significant drop In funding. they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while
consideration is given to way5 in which additional funds may be raised.
We have a small core of comrnitted individual supporters who contribute monthty by StanLling Order", and
rec8iV& 8 number of individual donations during the year. We are most gratefvl for this individual financial
support. The bulk of our incom8 cornes frorn 9rants". these range frorn the very large (The National Lottery..
£88,000 a year. covering rnuch of our core funding) to much smaller grants ol a few thousand pounds for
specific purposès". to support a particular community or activity such as sports and football.. walking, the
kitchen, Christrnas Harnpers.. and social or seaside trips and the prowsion of household rtems
We should make particular mention ol The Sir James Reckitt Charity who. in addition to their regular funding.
gave us a Centennial grant of £40,000 thi5 y&ar', to Hull and East Riding MIND who gave us a grant of £47,000
to spend in Hull and the East Riding on activities supporting the mentsl health of rekngees and asylum
seekers. The National Lottery increased their main grant to take account ol the rise in Inflth"on". and in
addition. gave us a Cost-of-Living Grant to fund extra support for our servictr us8rs of £30,000.
