## **Objectives and Activities**
## _**Purpose and Aims**_
OPORA supports Ukrainians displaced by the war to rebuild their lives sustainably in the United Kingdom. We do this by providing accessible information and guidance; moderated digital community spaces; employability, language and wellbeing support; resources to navigate the UK system; and targeted assistance such as mental health support.
Our mission remains grounded in empowering beneficiaries with the knowledge, tools and support networks needed to build secure, independent lives in the UK, while responding to their rapidly evolving needs.
## _**Ensuring Our Work Delivers Our Aims**_
The Trustees review OPORA’s aims, objectives and activities regularly and at least annually, ensuring alignment with the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance. Our decisions are informed by continuous beneficiary engagement through surveys, community feedback, frontline observations and data gathered across OPORA’s digital platforms.
This evidence-led approach ensures OPORA focuses resources on areas where beneficiaries face the greatest barriers, and where OPORA’s capabilities, particularly in digital information delivery, can deliver meaningful impact efficiently and at scale.
## **Achievement and performance**
## _**Charitable activities**_
Despite the continued pressures of the UK cost-of-living crisis and a challenging fundraising environment, OPORA delivered significant and far-reaching impact for Ukrainians across the UK. Our activities this year continued to prioritise unmet needs, clarity of information, safeguarding and scalable support solutions.
**1. Digital Information Services and Community Support**
- OPORA strengthened its role as a trusted national information hub for Ukrainians navigating life in the UK. Across our platforms, we reached an estimate of over **500 individuals daily** . Our focus on accuracy, bilingual accessibility and proactive updates allowed beneficiaries to receive reliable support at moments of uncertainty.
## **Website and Online Resources**
- 234,000 users accessed OPORA’s website during the reporting period.
- New dedicated sections supporting eVisa transition, the Ukrainian Permission Extension (UPE), and signposted support services.
- 20 blogs published, with several receiving up to 25,000 views.
- Delivered 18 webinars (including mental health and integration topics) with 4,800 views and 8,800 additional video resource views.
## **Community Support Groups**
- More than 25,000 beneficiaries participated in moderated thematic groups covering immigration processes, housing, benefits, employment and integration.
- Trained moderators supported beneficiaries Monday – Friday, providing structured
- signposting and safeguarding.
- Online community channels handled **13,860 individual queries** across four specialised
- chats and a dedicated employment channel.
- Changes to the Ukrainian schemes in the UK created confusion and anxiety among our beneficiaries. OPORA responded swiftly by engaging with relevant government, civil service and civil society bodies to represent our beneficiaries’ concerns and need for stability and clear communication; publishing guidance resources in line with evolving Home Office and partners’ guidance.

## **2. Mental Health Ecosystem**
OPORA expanded its mental health support in response to the increasing emotional strain, trauma and uncertainty affecting Ukrainians, particularly families with children.
## **Therapeutic Groups and Webinars**
- Two monthly drop-in support groups (15 – 20 participants per session) delivered by a qualified Ukrainian psychologist.
- Over 20 expert-led webinars with more than 1,300 attendances.
## **Resources for Children and Families**
- Distributed over 500 copies of _A Journey Across Countries with Mr Corgi_ , an interactive therapeutic workbook for children aged 8 – 12.
- Secured dedicated funding to produce a similar new mental health resource for teenagers; development commenced during the reporting period for delivery and impact in 2026.
## **Interactive Access Tools**
- Created a nationwide map of more than 50 mental health services.
- Partnered with international organisations, including the IRC, to produce 10 traumainformed educational videos viewed over 5,000 times.
## **3. Technology and Innovation: AI-Assisted Support**
To meet rising beneficiary demand efficiently, OPORA continued developing its AI Assistant in partnership with a dedicated product and software engineering partner, which:
- Processed more than 12,000 queries this year by signposting users to published OPORA and trusted partner and government materials
- Resolved approximately 70% of queries automatically with a **91.5% positive feedback rating** ;
- Provided rapid, safe and accurate support on topics including sponsorship, Ukrainian schemes and BRP issues.
T his technology has meaningfully expanded OPORA’s capacity during a period of constrained resources.
## **4. Representing beneficiaries in policy, research and Sector Engagement** OPORA remained an active voice representing Ukrainian families in the UK:
- Contributed insights to government departments, including MHCLG, and briefed MPs and Peers on emerging issues around UPE.
- Participated in national events marking the three-year anniversary of the full-scale invasion.
- • Supported research initiatives with academic partners including the LSE, University of Birmingham and Bristol University.
- Continued active membership in national working groups including BRC, Welcome Hubs, the Ukraine Response Community of Practice and Core Delivery Group.
## _**Contribution by Volunteers**_
OPORA’s achievements this year were made possible through the dedication, professionalism and generosity of our volunteers. They contributed across all areas of delivery: technology, data, content development, mental health, business mentoring, safeguarding and moderation of high-volume support channels.
Volunteer contribution remains one of OPORA’s greatest strengths and a key driver of our ability to deliver scalable, cost-effective impact. Trustees extend their sincere gratitude for their exceptional commitment.

## **Structure, Governance and Management**
_**Governing document:**_ Memorandum and Articles of Incorporation
_**How Charity is Constituted:**_ Charitable Company Limited by Guarantee
## _**Trustee Recruitment and Training**_
Trustees are appointed in accordance with the Articles, ensuring a balanced board with skills spanning finance, governance, public policy, lived experience and operational delivery. Trustees receive regular updates on beneficiary needs and complete training in safeguarding, data protection and governance.
All Trustees give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity. Any expenses reclaimed from the charity are in relation to fulfilling the Trustee role and charitable activities on behalf of the charity.
## _**Risk Management**_
The Board maintains a risk register reviewed regularly. Key risks are considered as they emerge and evolve, including updating mitigants and control framework to minimise controllable exposure for OPORA.
## **Financial Review**
## _**Principal funding sources**_
Income during the year came primarily from grants and voluntary donations. Trustees are grateful to the - many foundations and individual donors whose support sustained OPORA’s work during a wider sector wide downturn in charitable giving. The cost-of-living crisis continued to depress individual giving and increase demand for our services.
## _**Reserves, Investments and Going Concern**_
OPORA does not hold investments, ensuring funds remain immediately available for charitable delivery.
The charity maintained reserves in line with the three-month expenditure target set by the Board. Despite the decrease in unrestricted funding due to the constrained fundraising environment, Trustees consider the current level adequate and proportionate to OPORA’s operating model.
Following review, Trustees confirm the charity remains a going concern.
## _**Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities**_
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
Company law requires trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprises the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet and Notes to the Financial Statements.

## **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:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
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 accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements**
## **Year Ended 31 March 2025**
## **1 Summary of significant accounting policies**
## **(a) General information and basis of preparation**
The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.
The address of its registered office is: 128 City Road London United Kingdom EC1V 2NX
These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 1[st] December 2025.
Opora meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
The accounts do not include a cash flow statement because the charity, as a small reporting entity, is exempt from the requirements to prepare such a statement.
## **(b) Funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements**
## **Year Ended 31 March 2025**
## **1 Summary of significant accounting policies**
## **(c) Income recognition**
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.
Interest on cash held at bank is recognised as it accrues on the balances held.
## **(d) Expenditure recognition**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:
## _Expenditure on charitable activities_
Comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including accountancy fees, strategic management and registration costs.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.
## **(e) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year**
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements**
## **Year Ended 31 March 2025**
## **1 Summary of significant accounting policies**
## **(f) Employee benefits**
When employees have rendered service to the charity, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service.
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.
## **(g) Tax**
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
## **(h) Going concern**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
