Trustees’ Annual Report for the period
From: 01/05/2024 To: 30/04/2025
Charity name: Gurls Talk Ltd
Charity registration number: 1205153
Objectives and Activities
The Charity’s objectives are to advance the lives of adolescent girls and young women by promoting and protecting their mental health, providing trusted spaces for conversation and learning, educating the public about the challenges they face, and supporting research to better understand and respond to their needs, enabling them to grow into resilient and confident participants in society.
Achievements and Performance
As a newly established Charity, activity during this reporting period was intentionally limited, with the primary focus on setting up the organisation’s governance, operational structures, and foundations for future growth.
During this time, the Charity delivered a small number of initial activities, including:
-
a community event to mark International Women’s Day, funded by the Broadwick Hotel;
-
a talk and workshop session at a local girls’ school; and
-
Coach in Your Corner Piloting: Coach in Your Corner is a global mental health education programme for sports coaches of adolescent girls. The programme was developed and piloted under a multi-year grant to the US affiliated entity prior to the establishment of the UK charity. Following the conclusion of the grant period in 2026, the charity intends to fundraise for and implement the programme in the UK.
Financial Review
The Charity’s accounts at the end of the period reflect the fact that this was the first year of the Charity’s activities and whilst a large amount of the Charity’s efforts were spent establishing its set up and planning for the performance of its objectives, we are pleased to report that the Charity generated a surplus of £133,915.
This surplus has been allocated by the Charity for specific deployment in advancement of the Charity’s objectives.
