Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
The Link Coffee House continued to serve as a vibrant community hub, fostering connection and providing accessible resources. A significant development was the establishment and successful operation of the Homework Hub within The Link. This initiative provided a safe, supportive, and conducive environment for local children and young people to complete their homework and access educational support. By offering a dedicated space, internet access, and often volunteer assistance, the Homework Hub directly contributed to educational attainment and reduced barriers to learning for families in the community, especially those lacking suitable home study environments. The Coffee House also continued its role as an affordable social space, combating isolation and promoting community cohesion. Our annual Women's Conference was a cornerstone event, designed to empower, educate, and connect women from diverse backgrounds. The 2022-2023 conference focused on “Known” and “Flourish”. Through a series of workshops, inspiring speakers, and networking opportunities, the |

| conference provided a vital platform for |
|---|
| personal growth, shared experiences, and |
| mutual support. This initiative directly |
| addressed our purpose of fostering |
| community well-being and providing |
| opportunities for personal development, |
| contributing significantly to the mental and |
| social welfare of attendees. |
| In direct response to the escalating cost of |
| living crisis and rising energy prices, the |
| Warm Hub initiative became a critical |
| lifeline for many in our community. A |
| substantial investment was made in |
| replacing the heating system for our main |
| facility, ensuring a consistently warm and |
| welcoming environment. This allowed us to |
| offer a dedicated 'Warm Space' where |
| individuals and families could escape the |
| cold without the burden of heating their own |
| homes. |
| Beyond providing warmth, the Warm Hub |
| offered comprehensive support services: |
| • Emergency Packs:Distribution of |
| essential emergency packs, |
| including food, toiletries, and other |
| vital supplies, to those facing |
| immediate hardship. |
| • Sleeping Bags & Tents:Provision |
| of sleeping bags and tents for |
| individuals experiencing |
| homelessness or precarious |
| housing situations, offering a |
| measure of dignity and safety. |
| • Free Breakfast:Monthly provision |
| of free, nutritious breakfast, |
| addressing food insecurity and |
| ensuring a warm start to the day for |
| vulnerable individuals. |
| • Space to Have a Chat:Crucially, |
| the Warm Hub also served as a vital |
| social space. Trained volunteers |
| and staff were on hand to offer a |
| listening ear, provide information on |
| additional support services, and |
| facilitate informal conversations, |
| combating social isolation and |
| promoting mental well-being during |
| a challenging period. |
| These activities collectively demonstrated |
| our unwavering commitment to alleviating |
| poverty, promoting education, and |
| enhancing the overall well-being of the |
| public we serve, directly reflecting the |
Docusign Envelope ID: 81E47810-C0E9-426F-A5EE-1740FEE384E0
| purposes for which our charity was established. We continued our commitment to fostering spiritual growth and leadership within the church community. This included ongoing training and encouragement for pastors, building upon the foundation laid by previous DCPI Training initiatives. Looking towards the future, we began exploring a significant partnership with the London School of Ministry. This collaboration aims to create new avenues for furthering biblical education and leadership development, providing accessible and high-quality learning opportunities for individuals seeking to deepen their faith and serve their communities more effectively. Our enduring partnership with Hope Centre Ministries Cwmbran remained a key aspect of our outreach, specifically supporting individuals grappling with addiction. We continued to offer invaluable volunteer space, providing a safe and welcoming environment for their activities. Furthermore, we contributed through direct training, equipping individuals with essential life skills. A dedicated place for conversation and weekly Bible study support was also provided, offering spiritual guidance and a sense of community to those on their journey to recovery. This collaboration directly aligns with our purpose of supporting vulnerable individuals and promoting holistic well- being. These activities collectively demonstrated our unwavering commitment to alleviating poverty, promoting education, and enhancing the overall well-being of the public we serve, directly reflecting the purposes for which our charity was established. |

| Contribution made by volunteers |
Para 1.38 | The success of our initiatives throughout the year was significantly bolstered by the invaluable contributions of our dedicated “dream team” (volunteers). From assisting in the Homework Hub, providing crucial teaching support by volunteer tutors willing to give their time to serve. The creation of the Compassion Outreach “dream team” was particularly integral in the effective operation of our Warm Hub space, providing dedicated and compassionate support to attendees. Their commitment extended to supporting our partnership with Hope Centre Ministries Cwmbran, where they contributed their time and compassion to provide a safe space and participate in weekly Bible studies, with valuable support from retired or itinerant ministers who generously led these sessions. The tireless efforts and selfless dedication of our volunteers enabled us to extend our reach, enhance the quality of our services, and provide vital support to a greater number of individuals, truly embodying the spirit of public benefit. These activities collectively demonstrated our unwavering commitment to alleviating poverty, promoting education, and enhancing the overall well-being of the public we serve, directly reflecting the purposes for which our charity was established. |

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | During the financial year, Compassion Network UK made a tangible difference in the lives of our beneficiaries and contributed positively to wider society through our strategic initiatives. • Educational Advancement:The Homework Hub provided a crucial resource for local children and young people, evidenced by increased engagement in studies and improved access to learning tools. This directly addressed educational inequality, fostering a more equitable learning environment within the community. • Enhanced Well-being for Women:The Annual Women's Conference empowered attendees through knowledge sharing and networking, fostering a stronger sense of community and personal resilience. Feedback indicated increased confidence and a reduction in feelings of isolation among participants. • Alleviating Hardship and Promoting Dignity:The Warm Hub initiative was a critical response to the cost of living crisis. By providing a warm, safe space, emergency provisions (packs, sleeping bags, tents), and free breakfasts, we directly mitigated the immediate impacts of poverty and homelessness. The provision of a 'space to chat' also significantly contributed to the mental well-being of beneficiaries, combating social isolation and offering a sense of belonging during challenging times. This holistic approach provided not just material aid but also vital human connection and support. • Strengthening Community Leadership:Our investment in leadership development, including ongoing pastoral training and the exploration of a partnership with the London School of Ministry, has laid the groundwork for a more robust and biblically educated leadership base within the community. This will have long-term benefits for spiritual growth and community service. • Support for Addiction Recovery:The continued partnership with Hope Centre Ministries Cwmbran provided essential practical and spiritual |

support to individuals battling addiction. By offering volunteer space, training, and consistent Bible study support, we contributed directly to their recovery journeys, fostering hope and stability for a vulnerable population. Overall, our work has demonstrably improved the circumstances of our beneficiaries by providing essential services, fostering education and personal development, and building stronger, more resilient communities. The wider benefits to society include a reduction in social isolation, increased educational opportunities, and enhanced support networks for those facing significant challenges. These activities collectively demonstrated our unwavering commitment to alleviating poverty, promoting education, and enhancing the overall well-being of the public we serve, directly reflecting the purposes for which our charity was established.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Compassion Network UK
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Compassion Network UK ('the charity') for the year ended 30 September 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes.
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the trustees of charitable company you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a 'true and fair' view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner's statement.
Independent Examiner's Statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charitable company as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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 financial statements to be reached.
