FINANCIAL REVIEW Financlal posltion Total income for 2024-25 rose to £100,304, up from £64,423 the previous year. Donation income more than doubled to £59,497 12024: £27,36n, drtven by a generous r￿7vate grft and a legacy contribution from a former m8mber. Investment income increased modestly to £6,788 (2024: £5,923), refleding our strategic shift towards cash holdings. Other income, induding occasional venue hire for extemal communty events, totalled £4,409 (2024.. £6,102). This overall growth highlights the impact of tar￿ed fundraising and our COn￿nUed financial prudence. Operating expenditur8 r8tumed to a more typical level of £90,055, down from £104,740 the previous year. Th8 prior yearfs higher costs reflerted a one￿ff professional fee and the conclusion of the GLA grant. Premtses costs fell to £28,520 (2024.. £30.496), benefiting from low8r energy pri￿s. Staff costs totalled £36,356 (2024: £37,528), tracking below budget due to staff tumover. Other cosÈs rose in line with inflation, with no notable eX￿ptiOnS. We closed the yearwith an operating su￿uS of £10,249, priorto net gains on investment of £10,953. The combined r8suIt was an increase in total funds by £21,202, bringing the Assoaation's reserves to £418,477 as of 31 March 2025. The Association's baknce sheet remains slrong. with all net assets held in unr8stiicted reseNes. Reserves and Investrnent Policy In line wf(h Council policy, unrestricted funds are maintained at a lev81 surriclentto cover nlne months of operating costs, aloroside a buffer for emergency eX￿nditure. This approach ensures financial resilience and continuity of seNice. The Investments Fund is a designated reserve that allocates unrestrided cash to short- to medium- term investments. Its dual objectives are to achieve an annual retum of 40A to 5¥0, while retaining flexibility to withdraw furvjs as n8eded to meet plann&J or unforeseen cash flow requirements. Page 8

Bisho Ho Min Wah Association and Commun Centre Trustees, Re for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Organisatlonal development As the Asso￿atiOn marks foty years of dedicated Service. we are entering a critical phase of renewal. Our legacy of community care remains strong, with continued appre￿atIon frcm service users. However, we fa￿ a peri¢xI of transition that demands bold adaptation to ensure long-temi Sustainability. Demand for core servic8s has declined in recenl years, largely due to an ageing membership. Th8 combined impad of the pandemic and cost-of-living crisis has further strained our finances, exposing th6 limitations of a pre-COVID operating model that is no longer viable. In early 2024, the Council launched a strategic development initiative to strengthen our ¢apacity for growth and resIlren￿. This tEgan w5th an independent study into the evolving needs of Chinese immigrants, offering valuable insights to guide fubjre planning. Internal capacity building has been identtfied as the most pressing priority, centred on targeted r6cnJitment, volunteèr engagement. and professional development. wrthout sufficient capability, it is not possible to irnplement robust governan￿ struGtures enabling sub-commtttees and delegated responsibilibes. Our current staffing structure k8 already stretched. To develop new Services or enhance existing ones, we must expand the team in line with rising arAivty levels. In 2024-25, we welcomed a new trustee and staff member from the BN(O} visa holder community, ly)Ih with backgrounds in social work Their exFertise has brought frgsh enorgy and confidence to our transformation joumey. However, the departure of long-serving staff has placed additional pressure on our structure, and govemance reforms remain constrained by limited capacity. Strengthening organisalional capability remains essenttal and an ongoing priority. In Servi￿ development, mental health emerged as a key concem among new arrivals. In response, we partnered with The Brains to deliver six brain health workshops in. Strong engagement and positive feedback have laid the foundation for deeFer collaboration and fijture initiatives. FinanGially, the widenirvJ 0F￿rating deficAt poses a serious rtsk to our reseDies. ￿lIe targeted fundraising efforts in 2024-25 yielded encouraging results, continuing with the existing model is no longer tenable.

Building on the success of our expert-led workshops, we ￿ntinUe womoting brain health through ev￿daY actNities, responding to research that highlights low awaren&8s. stigma, and delayed help-seeking for dem6ntia among Chinese communities. induding bng-settled migrarrts in the UK. Alongside mental health awareness initiatives. we plan to relaunch a ￿trIendIng Servi￿ to foster connection and redu￿ isolation. Through daily inleractions and community feedback, we have identtffed a growing need for inrtiatives that foster S￿la1 integration, Gross-Gultural understanding, and creative expression. In response, we plan to launth new projects that bring together senior members. young volunte6rs-especially recent a￿1Val>and the wider community. We also aim to deepen engagement through digital media and other innovative approaches that refiect the ev0￿1ng ways people connect. Organisationally, one of our strategic wioribes is to attract, develop, and retain eX￿ptIOnal staff arKI volunteers. Th￿r conthbutions are vilal to our mission. Enhancing their experientx begins with cuftivating a positive, indusive CU￿Ure where weilbeing is priorttised and Fersonal growth is actively supported. Strategic partnerships will be key to accelerating progress and bridging gaps in capacity. We are deeply graleful to St. Martin-in-the-Frelds and its WKler Gommunrty for thair ongoing support. In the oming year, we will seek new allian￿ with charities and cory￿rate partners to strengthen our impact and extend our reach. Intemally, we will focus on streamlining operations through proven, te¢hnology-based solutions that improve efficiency and s8Nice delivery. Developing a robust tethnology strategy is overdue and essentl81 to keép pace with a rapidly changing world and the growing comF4extty of our work. Financial sustainability remains a c£rrtral thallerge. We recognise that relying solely on personal ne￿orkS and private donations is not viable long-temi. Diversifying our funding streams will require new skills, strategic investment, and sustsined effort- but we are optimistic and committed to this journ6y. Given our mcKlest scale and limited resou￿￿, the'council has adoF*ed a phased, pragmatic approach to change. This ensures we move forward with care, manage risks effectively. and remain r8sponsive to evolving communty needs. Pag6 8
