Objectives and Activities
Journey to Freedom is a charity which exists to assist the needs of those residing in and around the London Borough of Bromley, who have experienced domestic abuse and find themselves in material need. The charity aims to provide short term emergency items to those being rehoused and also long term assistance via grants. Working in partnership with other local charities and support services
Achievements and Performance
The Trustees main achievement was the creation of the CIO, website and donations system which will allow the charity to pursue its aims. However circumstances since then have meant that little work has been possible to pursue the aims of the charity. The trustees hope that this will change in the forthcoming year.
Financial Review
There has been little financial activity for the charity over the year, owing to the trustees other commitments. Income was negligible, with a single individual donation and there has been no expenditure from the charity account. The charity has no
reserves, but with no ongoing commitments or debts they are not currently required.
