Board of Trustees Statement The Trustees present their report including the financial statements of the charity for the year ended on 31 August 2025. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities, issued in March 2005. l. Our Mission and Vision Roma people are an ethnic group whose origins trace back to India. Todayi they are dispersed across Europe, with the largest populations found in Central and Eastern European countries such as Romania and Bulgaria. Migration to the United Kingdom increased significantly following the accession of several Central and Eastern European countries to the European Union, enabling freedom of movement and new opportunities for many families. However, for many Roma individuals, this migration has been shaped by a long history of discrimlnation, social exclusion, and poverty in their countries of origin. Educational opportunities have often been limited, with many having attended segregated schools. As a result, Roma communities arriving in the UK frequently face multiple and interconnetted challenges, particularly in areas such as Luton. These include high levels of illiteracy, limited English language proficiency, low digital skills, and a lack of familiarity with how national systems and services operate. These barriers do not only affect individuals and families, they also impact meaningful social integration and limit the potential contrlbutions Roma people can make to the wider society. Without targeted and culturally sensitive support, many remain at the margins of society, unable to fully access the opportunities available to them. It is in direct response to these challenges that Luton Roma Trust was established. Our mission is to enhance the lives of the the Roma living in Luton and surrounding areas and to support their to integration into the wider life of the town. We exist to bridge the gap beleen potential and opportunity, helping individuals navigate systems, build skills, and gain the confidence needed to participate fully in society. Our vision goes beyond social integration. We seek to Inspire hope and expand horizons, to help individuals move beyond a life shaped by exclusion or survival, and towards one defined by dignity, opportunity, and belonging. Central to this vlsion is our long-term commitment to empowering the next generation of Roma in Luton and surrounding areas, many of whom were born in the United Kingdom. By encouraging engagement with education and promoting it as a pathway to opportunity, we aim to break cycles of disadvantage and open doors to a brighter future. In doing so, we support young people to retain the richness of their cultural identity while also contributing meaningfully to wider community. With the right support, Roma Individuals have Page13
the potential not only to integrate, but to thrive, and In doing so, to enrich the social and economic fabric of Luton as a whole. Luton Roma Trust, therefore, plays a vital role, not only in supporting the Roma community, but in helping to build a more inclusive, cohesive, and prosperous society for everyone. 11. Brief History of Luton Roma Trust The story of Luton Roma Trust began in 2009, when Revd. Martin Burrell, one of its three founders, moved to Luton after working with Roma communities in various parts of the United Kingdom. On arrlvingi he began supporting the Eastern European Roma community, who welcomed him warmly. Committed to building trust and making a meaningful difference, Martln learned the Romani language to better communicate with and support the people he served. As the Roma community in Luton grew, so too did the complexity of its needs. Recognising this, in 2015 Martin joined with the Bishop of Bedford, the Rt. Revd. Richard Atkinson, and Revd. Chris Neilson to formally establish Luton Roma Trust as a charity. From that point on, the organisation has played a vital role in supporting Roma residents in Luton, helping them to integrate more fully into local life, access essential services, enrol their children in school, and secure employment. Since its founding, Luton Roma Trust has developed a holistic approach to support, addressing the interconnected challenges faced by the community. This model has increasingly been recognised as an effective and impactful approach to Roma integration across the UK. Today, the work of Luton Roma Trust has contributed to a growing recognition of Roma people as one of the most vulnerable communities in Luton. There is also increasing awareness among professionals of the importance of understanding the specific needs and experiences of this community in order to provide appropriate and effective support. This marks an important step forward in the organisation's journey, as it continues to build on its achievements and work towards a more inclusive future. 111. Organisational Structure Luton Roma Trust is governed by a Board of Trustees, whlch provides oversight of the organisation's mission, strategic direction, and overall governance. The Board Is chaired by the Rt. Revd. Richard Atkinson OBE, Bishop of Bedford, and consists of six members., Revd Martin Burrell, Revd Canon Liz Hughes, Steve Dolby, John Barr, Valdemar Kalinin, and Dr Helen Connolly. The Trustees bring a diverse range of experience and perspectives to the organisation. Rt Revd Richard Atkinson OBE is a very experienced Chair and Trustee of many enterprises. Steve Dolby, who joined the Board in May 2025, is a longstanding advocate for equality and social justice.

arrival and departure for many Roma indlvlduals travelling from Central and Eastern Europe, and plays an important role in directing newly arrived families to access appropriate support. John Barr, who is of Romani heritage, contributes valuable lived experience that informs and strengthens the organisation's work. Valdemar Kalinin is a respetted Roma poet and writer, and notably the first to translate the Christian Bible Into the Romani language. Dr Helen Connolly is a professor with recognised expertise in migration and social policy. The day-to-day delivery of the charity's mission and vision is led by the Charity Manager, Crina Morteanu, who works closely with the Board of Trustees to implement the organisation's strategic and operational priorities. She Is supported by a dedicated stsff team, including a Roma Education Champion, Support Worker, Roma Youth Ambassador, Project A5515tant, Charity Administrator, and Finance Officer. In addition, Luton Roma Trust benefits from the contributlon of one volunteer. Together, the team ensures the effective delivery of servlces and support to the Roma community in Luton and the surrounding areas. IV. Objectives and Activities During the reporting period, Luton Roma Trust delivered its work in line with four key strategic objettives: A. To provide holistic support that enables Roma community members to access essential services in Luton. B. To improve English language proficiency and develop dlgitsl skills wlthin the Roma community. C. To build the self-esteem of young Roma people, supporting them to continue their education and ultimately achieve their asplrations. D. To work In partnership with statutory bodies both locally and nationally-as well as universities, in order to drive meaningful and lasting improvements in people's lives. V. Achievements and Performance A. Access to Essential Services Belmeen September 2024 and August 2025, Luton Roma Trust carried out 975 interventions across ten key areas of need, including housing, debts and legal matters, documentation, education, the EU Settlement Scheme, foodbank provision, health and wellbeingi soclal integration, welfare support, and employment. Page15
Fig. l Total number of interventions Septernber 2024 - August 2025 300 250 200 150 loo 50 Similarly to previous years, the highest number of interventions was in the area of access to welfare, accounting for 277 interventions. Luton Roma Trust supported individuals in applying for a range of benefit schemes, managing their Universal Credit accounts, liaising with relevant authorities on their behalf, and providing interpreting support where needed. The second highest area of intervention was documentation (196 interventions). This included assisting individuals with obtaining birth certificates and passports, as well as SUPPK)rting citizenshlp applications and other essential paperwork. In the area of education, Luton Roma Trust supported 156 Roma children by assisting with school admissions, acting as a bridge between schools and families, and providing support in relation to school fines where necessary. A further 128 individuals were supported under the European Union Settlement Scheme. This included help with obtainlng share codes to prove immigration status to employers or other institutions, as well as updating personal details on UKVI accounts. Support for health and wellbeing accounted for 119 interventions. This included assisting Individuals in registering with GP surgeries, booking and attending medical appointments, communicating with healthcare providers on their behalf, and accompanying them to appointments at Luton & Dunstable Hospital for consultations or procedures. Additional areas of support included access to work (28 interventions), debts, fines, and court-related matters (28 interventions), access to housing (12 interventions), and general support and integration (7 interventions). Although these figures are comparatively lower, they highlight the ongoing challenges faced by the Roma communlty in achieving full independence and integration, as well as their continued reliance on Luton Roma Trust for support in these areas. Finally, Luton Roma Trust supported 24 Roma families with foodbank vouchers, a figure consistent with the previous year, when 25 families received similar support. Over the course of the reporting period, the organisatlon delivered approximately 2,925 hours of direct support to Roma individuals and families. Page16
In addition to this formally recorded work, it is important to recognise the significant level of informal support provided. There were at least 50 instances of assistsnce delivered in community settings such as on the street or during home visits-which were not captured in the organisation's database, further highlighting the breadth of support offered. B. Strenghtening Digital Skills In the Roma community During the reporting perlod, with fundlng from the Wixamtree Trust, Luton Roma Trust successfully delivered two digital skllls courses benefiting a total of 12 Roma individuals. Participants are now able to send emails, access their Universal Credit accounts online, and communicate digitally with the schools where their children are enrolled in Luton. Our experience shows that the Roma community in Luton currently faces significant barriers to accessing digital services due to multiple vulnerabilities previously oudined. By investing in the development of digital skills, we aim to support their broader social integration, enabling them to book GP appointments, manage their Universal Credit accounts independently, and engage effectively with their children's education. Despite some challenges during the project's implementation, our partnership with Noah Enterprise enabled us to successfully train 12 community members, all of whom have reported increased confidence in their digital abilities as a dirett result of the course. In particular, one participant said: 'The digital skills course has really helped Improve my life. These skills gained during the course, have taught me how to do online shopping, how to access my bank account or how to look for jobs. I am now more comfortable to using technology in my daily life." (Roma community member) Page17
Ip (Digital skllls instructor gulding Roma participants on how to use a computer mouse) Alongside digital skills project, It is important to highlight that during the reporting period, Luton Roma Trust has made significant progress in developing an ESOL course titled "English for Life" specifically for the Roma community, in partnership with Noah Enterprise. Although the course will begin delivery after September 2025, beyond the current reporting period, we have already registered 10 Roma participants and received strong interest from the communlty eager to enroll. C. Early Years Education Support During the reporting period, Luton Roma Trust has started implementing the three years Early Years Education project with funding from the Allder Fund (Dlocese of St. Albans) aimed at supporting Roma children of pre-school age to benefit from workshops slmilar to a nursery setting. As such, they will learn basic English, get acustomed with rules, enjoy playing together, get familiar with using the English alphabet etc. The skills developed through the workshops will further support their educational outcomes when joining school as, based on our work with Roma children for many years, very few of them if none of them attend nurseries and this impact5 they adaptation at school. Workshops will start being delievered in September 2025. During the reporting period, Luton Roma Trust organised an eight-week after-school art and craft club In the lead-up to Christmas, designed for children and their caregivers. It was wonderful to see families engaging together, getting hands-on, explorlng creativity, and enjoying shared moments of learning and expression. Pa&ye | 8

Mental Health and Wellbeing During the reporting period, wlth support from Luton Council and Bedfordshire and Luton Community Foundation, and in partnership with Flying Start, Luton Roma Trust delivered weekly workshops for the Roma community focused on basic mental health cOnptS. Recognising that mental health is often a taboo subject within the Roma community, we deliberately framed the sessions as'wellbeing Sessions" to reduce stigma and encourage open participation. We created a welcoming and relaxed environment where participants could share their concerns over a cup of coffee and biscuits. The sessions Included guided meditation techniques to help manage everyday stress, as well as discussions on the benefits of maintaining good mentsl health. The projett has had a slgnlficant posltive impact on participants. One attendee shared: "Since I have attended the sessions, I feel I have more friends and I cant wait to come every week. (Ron7a community member) Page19
Il+ {Participants attending one of the mentsl health and wellbeing sessions alongside our partner from Flying Start) Providing a safe and welcoming space for the Roma community has allowed us not only to address one of the community's most significant taboos but also to help reduce isolation and encourage individuals to focus on their own wellbeing. Building on this success, Luton Roma Trust will seek funding to continue delivering these important workshops. E. Celebration of Roma Culture and Heritage During GRT History Month Celebratory event at Luton Council During June, we proudly celebrated Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller (GRT) History Month with a series of meaningful events and activities. Luton Roma Trust, in partnership with Luton Council and Luton Irish Forum, hosted a special celebration at Luton Council. A particularly powerful moment was the first-ever raising of the Roma flag by the Council, an emotional and hopeful occasion for the many Roma community members in attendance. li (Roma Flag Irlsh Traveller Flag and belng raised at Luton Council) Page | 10

GRT Cultural Awareness Training As part of our ongoing commitment to improving understanding of GRT communities, Luton Roma Trust also delivered a GRT Cultural Awareness Training in collaboration with Gate Herts charity and members of the GRT Forum. 3The session was attended by professionals from GP surgeries within the Primary Care Network, who reported a significant increase in their knowledge and awareness of GRT communities. Buildlng on this success, we aim to secure funding to expand and deliver similar training opportunities to professionals across Luton and surrounding areas. This initiative was made possible through collaboration with Luton Council, Healthwatch, Luton Irish Forum, and the Primary Care Network and it was also informed by key finding5 from Luton Roma Trust'5 report, "Access to Health in Roma Communities," developed in partnership with the University of Bedfordshire in 2024.

(Image showing LRT'S Charity Manager explaining the differen between the GRT communities) Gypsy? Roma and Traveller Conference "Roots and Routes" In partnership with Luton Irish Forum, we co-organised the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller Conference, Roots and Routes - whe We Were and Where We Are Going". This event brought together community members, academics, and professionals to celebrate the richness of GRT culture, while also refletting on the opportunities available to the new generation of young people to thrive and succeed. Many described it as the best conference they had attended, highlighting its emotional resonance, inclusivity, and educational value. Vl.
