|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or services<br>identified in the accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|**For the period in question, no projects or**<br>**services which can be identified in the**<br>**accounts (i.e., an exchange of money)**<br>**took place: instead, as shall be detailed**<br>**further below, discussions as to how to**<br>**proceed in future fundraising to achieve**<br>**these aims occurred between the**<br>**Members.**|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity<br>Commission on public<br>benefit|Para 1.18|**The Trustees have read and confirm their**<br>**adherence to the guidance issued by the**<br>**Charity Commission on public benefit.**|

## **Achievements and Performance** 

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|**For the period in question, the charity**<br>**was unable to achieve tangible results**<br>**which could be reflected in this report,**<br>**because the charity was unable to secure**<br>**the funding needed to do so. This was**<br>**despite a concerted and systematic effort**<br>**undertaken to apply for grants listed on**<br>**public databases for UK charities during**<br>**the period in question. As a result of this,**<br>**and in mindfulness of the purpose of the**<br>**charity to create achievements for the**<br>**public benefit, substantial internal**<br>**meetings took place during the period in**<br>**question as to how the charity could**<br>**achieve funding in subsequent periods in**<br>**the future.**|
|**Additional information (optional)**<br>You may choose to include further statements||where relevant about:|
|Achievements against<br>objectives set|Para 1.41|**Unfortunately, this was poor, as the**<br>**charity was unable to secure any funding**<br>**during the period in question.**|
|Performance of fundraising<br>activities against objectives<br>set|Para 1.41|**This was most disappointing of all. A**<br>**large number of applications and cold-**<br>**call approaches were sent to a variety of**<br>**potential funding sources: both from**<br>**public databases for grant opportunities,**<br>**as well as manual searching of the**<br>**Charity Commission Registry for England**<br>**and Wales and cold-calling at the**<br>**registered contact details for each.**|
|Investment performance<br>against objectives|Para 1.41|**Through internal meetings, the charity**<br>**was able to create a pitch deck and other**<br>**media marketing materials which were**<br>**circulated in the above applications and**<br>**introductions. This was possible through**<br>**substantial private time invested by the**<br>**Members towards the identified**<br>**objectives of creating said materials.**|
|Other|||





## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|**Financial position of the charity for the**<br>**period in question is nil.**|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|**The charity maintains a bank account for**<br>**this purpose at Metro Bank. However,**<br>**because the charity received nil income**<br>**for the period in question, the account**<br>**balance is likewise nil; therefore, the**<br>**charity holds no reserves at the**<br>**conclusion of the period in question.**|
|Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|**Nil.**|
|Reasons for holding zero<br>reserves|Para 1.22|**Lack of donations, despite substantial**<br>**efforts to apply for grants and to make**<br>**private introductions.**|
|Details of fund materially in<br>deficit|Para 1.24|**There is no deficit, as the balance is**<br>**simply nil.**|
|Explanation of any<br>uncertainties about the<br>charity continuing as a going<br>concern|Para 1.23|**We believe that we have identified**<br>**possibilities to create substantial further**<br>**income in future financial periods, which**<br>**we hope to realise for the following yearly**<br>**reports.**|



|**Additional information (optional)**<br>You may choose to include further statements|**Additional information (optional)**<br>You may choose to include further statements|where relevant about:|

|Investment policy and<br>objectives including any<br>social investment policy<br>adopted|Para 1.46|**n/a**|
|A description of the principal<br>risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|**The principle risk facing the charity is**<br>**that it will never receive adequate funding**<br>**to achieve progress towards its**<br>**objectives and, therefore, fail to continue**<br>**as a going concern. However, we believe**<br>**that the new strategies which we have**<br>**identified during this period in question**<br>**will change these circumstances in future**<br>**periods.**|

One**<br>**trustee (Joseph Grogan) was added to**<br>**this charity from another related charity**<br>**sharing the same trustees as the original**<br>**trustees of this charity, in order to**<br>**simplify discussions and internal work**<br>**around fundraising strategies for both**<br>**charities.**|
