The Essenelle Foundation Annual Report

2022 - 2023

The Essenelle Foundation (TEF) is a Mental Health Charity focused on empowering and supporting the Sickle Cell community.

TEF is made up of 3 pillars:

A note from Our Founder

The last year has been nothing short of an incredible journey. Since our launch, we have connected and built longstanding relationships with different community members and come to understand the things that they feel impact them the most.

We have held weekly and monthly workshops that address all forms of emotional well-being and growth. We have developed educational standards and policies that will demand consistent care for all children in hospitals suffering from crisis.

It is a pleasure working on developing new methods that support patients and those who care for and support patient journeys.

We are even more motivated and excited for the journey up ahead. With more workshops and providing access to therapy for more community members, we are sure to make more members of the community more confident in managing their mental health and emotional well-being.

Our Trustees:

Candy Boakye Zhane Walcott Layla Lawson Fadumo Khamis

O U R M I S S I O N

O U R P U R P O S E

To help remove the emotional and physcological limitations that impact those who have Sickle Cell and their families.

To create access to wellbeing programmes, therapies and virtual events that will aid in the overall living experience of the community. To build bridges in education and research so that less people will have to suffer in situations that could be avoided with training and education.

To support the Sickle Cell community and start more conversations around the impact SCD has on mental health and emotional well-being.

To provide resources and tools that will allow all those who need help and guidance to understand and navigate their emotional journey.

We aim to:

a) Provide practical advice about the treatment and care of Sickle Cell and thalassaemia. Support, health education and grants to access counselling and talking therapies to sufferers and their families/carers;

b) Advance education in, and raising awareness of, Sickle Cell and thalassaemia among the general public, educational establishments, corporate institutions, workplaces and local authorities with the aim of improving the experiences and health outcomes of those living with the disease.

"You never think the kids are struggling. But they are... of course, they are. They just get overlooked."

Our 2021-2022 Goals

1

Our second year of operation was about strength and learning from our mistakes. We took the time to listen to the community and action the changes they requested. We challenged ourselves to dig deeper and find the root cause of the issues.. and then worked with he community to find a solution.

Therapies

One of our key pillars is providing those impacted by SCD with access to trained therapists. We extended that further to life coaching and other wellness teams this year. We created a dedicated programme that focuses on building a hub of specialists that the community can access.

Making sure we are consistently listening and actioning concerns or dealing with service issues is part of our dedicated effort toward growth.

Workshops and Education

Events and fundraising

We kept our workshops the same as they were popular. We did our best to extend resources so that we could reach a wider community.

This in turn allowed us builder stronger relationships outside of the community. it allowed us to educate the services that were providing workshops or events for us.

Events allow us to bring together large numbers of beneficiaries to the same place. It encourages networking and strengthens the community it also allows us to invite different companies to learn and develop new systems that encourage better support for the SCD community.

We are always looking at different ways to engage with the wider country and educate and encourage donations that go towards our mission.

Our Core Strategy

We know that the community want to be heard and feel valued. They are the experts on the condition and help should be given in the way it is needed. The parents and patients being included in the way the service is delivered allows for a bridge to be built between the service provider and the service user.

It also gives agency and ownership back to the community.

When we planned our focus for the year, we knew some things were important and would be defining:

Research

"I'm just a lot calmer these days. Some days are harder than others but Ideal with it "

"Playing piano is fun. I like when It makes my mum proud and feel better "

"I know my therapist gets it. and if they don’t, they allow me to teach them"

'" I didn’t come into this knowing what to expect. I didn't know if it would even help. I can't imagine this journey without the therapy "

Financial Review

O U R F O C U S

The charity ensures that all funds are responsibly used, and policies are in place to monitor the charity’s assets continually. The charity ensures that we can meet unexpected expenses and take advantage of change and opportunities for development when they arise. This is achieved by setting aside income when the charity can afford it, as a reserve earmarked for specific future purposes rather than used immediately for the charity’s aims.

The trustees regularly assess the appropriate reserve level to avoid putting the charity’s future development or activities at risk.

This means the trustees:

• Consider whether the charity needs to keep reserves – the trustees’ primary consideration is the well-being of the beneficiaries and their needs.

• Have a reserves policy which explains the levels of reserves to be kept and how they can be used

• Review their reserves policy regularly to take account of changing financial circumstances and new operating and financial conditions

• Comply with the annual reporting requirements to set up.

• Identity which of the charity’s funds have restrictions on their use, i.e. reserve funds that are freely available to spend are distinguished from funds that may have restrictions on their use set by their donors

• Plan for future development and sustainability when looking at levels of reserves, i.e. designating funds for use on future projects if appropriate as a way of setting aside and building up funds separated from the charity’s general reserves
