# **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** 

**From  2/10/2023             Period start date   To       1/10/2024      Period end date** 

## **Charity name: MARCELONA SPORTS FOUNDATION** 

## **Charity registration number: 1189805** 

## **Trustees’ report For the year ended 1 October 2024** 

The trustees present their report and the financial statements of Marcelona Sports Foundation for the year ended October 2024. These have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **Our Objectives and Activities** 

We operate across the UK targeting vulnerable and disadvantaged youth that need support and guidance. We provide opportunities for Employment, Education, Training, Mentorship, Sports and Recreation as well as Mental Health support. 

Our aim is to increase education and employment opportunities to the disadvantaged young people from the most deprived areas in London. Most of those participating in our programmes are from BAME communities and are in need of Mental Health Support. We aim to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation, or other leisure time occupation, of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their conditions of life. 

Ultimately, we are using our participants love for football and sports to invite them into education and training opportunities that will improve their future prospects and quality of life. In doing so our goal is to decrease rates of unemployment and improve the academic aspirations of our participants. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

In 2023/2024 Marcelona Sports Foundation and its Trustees delivered our largest project to date and supported over 100 young people with mentoring and counselling support as well as delivering over 30 hours per week of physical activity. The increasing engagement 

highlighted the need for this provision, and we aim to expand on this work with young people moving forward. The focus of our projects is to increase the sense of belonging for young people and their engagement with education, so they can be informed, prepared and better equipped to make good decisions. 



Marcelona Sports Foundation Trustees Report (continued) For the year ended 1[st] October 2024 

We will continue to implement the foundations for a number of projects that use football and sports to help keep young people engaged and active, particularly during the evenings when antisocial behaviour and crime rate peaks and to support them in line with our purpose and visions. 

We have worked with the local council, other local charities and organisations to help get vulnerable young people and adults in training and education whilst setting up the platform to do this more independently within Marcelona Sports Foundation.
