England and Wales as the trustees shall determine in their sole discretion.
The charity carries out a wide range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The trustees consider that these activities, summarised below, provide benefit both to those who uses our community centre and the wider community of Greater Manchester and neighbouring cities.
IFCED is an independent non-profit organisation that responds to community challenges such as poverty, the need of emergency responses in the event of circumstance beyond one’s control such as floods. We believe our community will be stronger if we act together to solve poverty. We are calling on businesses, employers and citizens within our community to work together to reduce the risk of people falling into poverty.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
We aim to create public awareness on and promote ways to prevent and tackle poverty. Public awareness and support is needed to address the problem successfully. We aim to campaign on particular measures to help poor people, but focusing on specific groups of people living in poverty for whom the public is perceived to have more sympathy, such as children and those on low wages. Our approach is being proactive rather than reactive to poverty. Mitigation of the risk of people falling into poverty is the key to success in this because less efforts are required in preventative measures and cost less than fixing it by being reactive in later stages when for some people it may be impossible to escape the poverty. We believe our community will be inspired to try out these recommendations in practice.
Floods are the most common form of natural disaster in the UK and the World as widespread flooding happens at least once a year in the UK. Following a disaster, many vulnerable people are without access to some of the most basic human rights: food, shelter and sanitation facilities. Our charity aim is to provide emergency shelter and food to those who are the most vulnerable using our volunteer network. This will save lives and improve community spirit, as caring communities are vital for wellbeing.
Our objectives are:
- To have a comprehensive strategy to solve poverty in the UK. We all have a part to play in solving poverty. Educational support is only one of the ways to tackle the issue but community and faith groups offer lifelines, enabling people to escape poverty, and have a vital role in facilitating and enabling our community and citizens to mitigate the risk

of poverty locally. We can be a community where no one is destitute, fewer than one in ten is in poverty, and no one is in poverty for more than two years.
-
To provide emergency response work to support our communities worst hit by natural disasters. Play vital role in getting emergency supplies and support to those who are most vulnerable to save lives. Also, helping rehabilitation of the community after disaster is as important as provision of first-hand emergency shelter and food supplies.
-
Providing community and cultural activities such as preparing food for fund raising activities, provide cultural seminars at our community centre once a week. This increase opportunities for social contact and develop networking opportunities with the local community.
-
To offer a range of excellent developmental leisure activities to improve mental, physical and moral capabilities of the people supported.
Keys to Success
-
To set up a strong network of support with the people in the area.
-
To build up a controlling system to help both the young people and the teacher perform better during the activities.
-
To launch some fundraising activities in order for the charity to operate better.
-
Development of sporting activities.
-
Engaging our community on poverty rather than just supporting policy change. Most campaigns aim to fix issues in late stages of poverty where the efforts are much less effective and costs are too high. Community perception, behaviour and attitudes should be targeted first which then will proliferate real support on the issue.
-
Having ready plans and organising volunteers to be able to react quick for providing emergency sheltering and food in an event of natural disaster.

Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Volunteers are an important resource in community work. This year our Charity has achieved to reach over 3,500 in Manchester and surrounding cities. This helped us increase our number of volunteers who then helped us organise and conduct more charitable and fund-raising activities than last year. Volunteers are involved in most of our community activities and we have now over 9 people regularly giving their time.
