There was no income received from donations, legacies, charitable activities, trading activities, or investments, and the charity received no government contracts or grants during this period.

Activities and Objectives
The charity has not been able to carry out any charitable activities during this reporting period. There has been a significant turnover of trustees during the year, which has prevented the charity from progressing with its objectives and commencing operations. All intended activities remain focused on Leicester, United Kingdom, and the charity aims to benefit the local community once it becomes operational. Due to the inactivity, no services were provided to beneficiaries during this period.
Governance and Management
There has been a turnover of trustees during this reporting period, which has impacted the charity's ability to function.

complaints procedure, a trustee expenses policy, a conflicts of interest policy, a safeguarding policy, a risk management policy, an investment policy, a reserves policy, a fundraising policy, a related party transactions policy, formal internal financial controls, data protection and GDPR compliance procedures, and a serious incident reporting procedure. The trustees acknowledge that these policies will be developed as the charity becomes active.
People
