Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2026. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Opening Reflection from our Managing Director

It is my pleasure to present Kingsway Community Connections’ Trustees Report for 2025/26.

Over the past year, I have found myself reflecting more deeply on the role communityled organisations play within people’s lives and the communities they serve. At KCC, we have always understood the importance of relationships, participation and community connection. This year, however, has strengthened my thinking around something more fundamental: the role of community spaces as part of the essential infrastructure of local communities.

Too often, spaces like ours are viewed as additional or supportive, valued when available but not always recognised as necessary. Yet through our day-to-day work, we continue to see the role consistent, place-based organisations play within people’s lives. We see what happens when people have somewhere familiar to go, where they feel recognised, accepted and part of community life.

This understanding has been reinforced during a period where many people continue to experience pressure and uncertainty in different forms. Poverty, housing insecurity, social isolation, emotional wellbeing and the complexity of daily life continue to affect many within our community. At the same time, many organisations across the Third Sector are operating within increasingly difficult funding environments while responding to growing levels of need.

In this context, continuity matters. Trust does not appear overnight. It develops gradually through repeated interactions, reliability and relationships built over time. Community development is often quiet work. Its impact may not always be immediate or easily measurable, but gradually it helps create the conditions where people feel more able to participate, build confidence and remain connected to others.

Across the year, KCC delivered groups, activities, welfare advice, youth work and wider community engagement. People came to the centre for many different reasons. Some arrived looking for practical support. Others came initially through activities, events or social groups before becoming more involved. Some disappeared for periods before returning again when they felt ready, and that’s ok.

This report reflects not only the activity delivered, but also the relationships, learning and experiences that continue to shape our work. It captures examples of support, participation and growth while also recognising the wider realities affecting communities and community organisations across the country.

I am, as always, incredibly thankful to the staff team whose care, commitment, patience and professionalism continue to shape the experience people have when they come through our doors. I also want to thank our Board of Directors, volunteers, partners and funders whose support and belief in this work continue to sustain KCC and the wider community we serve.

Most importantly, I would like to thank the residents who continue to put their trust in KCC through their involvement and continued presence within community life. Communities are not built through services alone, but through relationships, shared experiences and people continuing to show up for one another.

I hope this report offers a meaningful reflection of the work, people and community that have shaped the past year at KCC.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims

The company’s objectives are:

"to enable the residents of Kingsway Court and surrounding area, who experience disadvantage, inequity and poor health, to proactively participate in the delivery of the changes necessary to improve their health and wellbeing, by developing and delivering services, activities and events through strong and active partnerships with statutory and voluntary agencies in pursuit of equal opportunity, personal growth and a stable, secure and vibrant community."

Our Vision for Kingsway

Our Vision is one of a Proud, Capable and Confident multicultural community. Our Mission is to build social capital to address inequalities and improve health & wellbeing.

Increasing people’s confidence, connectedness and sense of belonging is the most effective contribution our organisation can make to addressing these inequalities and improving health and wellbeing within the community.

Personal Growth and Wellness is reflected in all aspects of our programme to encourage positive, sustainable change.

Our Role in the Community

Kingsway Community Connections (KCC) is a community anchor organisation based in the heart of Kingsway Court, serving the wider Garscadden and Scotstounhill area. Rooted in community development values and shaped by the experiences, strengths and aspirations of local people, KCC exists to support our proudly multicultural community.

At the heart of our work is the belief that strong communities are built through relationships, participation and connection. We recognise that people’s wellbeing is shaped not only by individual circumstances, but also by the conditions around them, including poverty, inequality, housing insecurity, isolation and unequal access to support and opportunity.

As a place-based organisation, we provide spaces where people can access support, build confidence, develop relationships and take part in community activities and wider local life. Through groups, activities, welfare support, events and everyday interactions, we aim to make people feel connected, valued and able to grow.

Our approach is shaped by PG&W, which was developed in response to the deficitbased language often attached to communities experiencing poverty and inequality. Communities like ours are frequently described through terms such as 'deprived', 'disadvantaged' or 'hard to reach', language which can overlook people’s strengths, aspirations and capacity for growth. PG&W instead focuses on the conditions that support wellbeing, including connection, purpose, dignity, stability and belonging.

KCC plays an active role within wider local partnerships and networks. We contribute community insight, advocate for prevention and relationship-based practice, and work collaboratively with partners to strengthen support for local residents.

Over time, this work has reinforced the value of trusted community spaces that remain consistent, accessible and embedded within the lives of local people.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The Year In Context

Throughout 2025/26, many individuals and families within our community experienced significant and ongoing pressures in their daily lives. Within communities like ours, the impacts of poverty, inequality and financial insecurity are rarely short-term. For many people, challenges relating to housing, income, wellbeing and family life have become increasingly prolonged and interconnected.

These pressures continued to affect how people experienced day-to-day life within the community. Financial insecurity, emotional wellbeing, social isolation and family circumstances often overlapped, making stability harder to maintain and increasing the importance of accessible and trusted support.

The year also highlighted ongoing concerns affecting many young people and families. Emotional wellbeing, social pressures, safety and violence affecting young people remained significant issues locally. For some young people, uncertainty, limited opportunities and inconsistent support continued to affect confidence, relationships and overall wellbeing.

Many people sought spaces where they felt welcomed, connected and part of something. Opportunities for routine, social connection and informal day-to-day support remained important.

Within this context, KCC provided a consistent point of contact for many local residents. Practical support sat alongside everyday opportunities for connection, participation and relationship-building, helping people remain connected to others during periods of pressure and uncertainty.

Community Impact

Throughout 2025/26, KCC provided consistent opportunities for support, participation and engagement across a wide range of groups, activities and services. During the year, 898 individuals accessed the centre a total of 12,050 times, reflecting ongoing demand for trusted local support and activity.

KCC’s Welfare Advice and Support Service delivered 247 appointments and supported 808 drop-in interactions during the reporting period, responding to a broad range of financial, housing and wellbeing-related concerns.

Connection & Belonging:

KCC provided regular opportunities for people to come together through groups, activities, events and informal day-to-day engagement. For many participants, these spaces offered routine, familiarity and a sense of belonging during periods of isolation, uncertainty or reduced confidence.

Sustained participation across a range of activities reflected the value many people placed on social connection, shared activity and involvement with others. Activity for All sessions engaged 160 individuals across 112 sessions, generating 561 interactions through yoga, fitness, creative arts and wellbeing activities delivered within a familiar and welcoming environment.

Women’s groups and culturally responsive provision also remained an important part of delivery throughout the year. High levels of repeat engagement across the Kurdish Women’s Group, Afghan Women’s Group, Sudanese Women’s Group and Kingsway Women’s Group highlighted the value of spaces where participants could maintain cultural connection, build confidence and develop supportive peer relationships over time.

The walking group, coffee mornings, lunch clubs and wider community events also provided important opportunities for friendship, routine and informal peer support. Over 200 people participated in KCC’s 25th anniversary events during the month of celebration, reflecting the organisation’s longstanding role locally and the value many residents continue to place on shared community spaces and activities.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

Stability & Support:

Throughout 2025/26, KCC provided practical and accessible support to individuals and families experiencing a wide range of challenges. KCC’s Welfare Advice and Support Service operated through a flexible model combining appointments and drop-in support, allowing immediate concerns to be addressed while maintaining access to more in-depth support where required. This approach improved accessibility, particularly for individuals presenting in crisis or requiring support without formal referral pathways.

As well as welfare advice, KCC supported residents experiencing food and fuel poverty through referral pathways into the North West Pantry and Foodbank. During the reporting period, 143 individuals accessed this support on 505 occasions, reflecting ongoing financial pressures affecting many households locally.

Community digital access also remained important, supporting residents to access online services, benefits, communication and wider support. Referrals into external projects, including the Plugged-In programme, further supported access to devices and connectivity for individuals experiencing digital exclusion.

Young People & Prevention:

KCC provided regular opportunities for children and young people to participate in safe and supportive activities. Primary-aged provision engaged 71 young people across outdoor play, educational and social activities, while the Kingsway Boys Group engaged 41 young people across 58 sessions.

This work took place within a context where concerns relating to emotional wellbeing, social pressures, safety and violence affecting young people remained significant. In response to increasing concerns locally, youth provision focused on consistency, early intervention and providing positive alternatives to risk-taking behaviour.

Accessibility remained central to delivery during the reporting period. Free provision, familiar staff and flexible engagement approaches helped ensure

young people could participate without formal barriers, while regular attendance reflected the value many young people placed on trusted and consistent spaces.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Participation & Community Voice:

Participation remained an important part of KCC’s work. Residents, volunteers and participants contributed not only through attendance, but also through supporting events, sharing experiences and helping shape activities across the organisation.

Many activities were shaped directly by participants, with delivery adapting in response to feedback, lived experience and changing circumstances. This included adapting activities around cultural and religious observance, seasonal changes and varying levels of confidence and accessibility needs.

Project-based learning and community development activity also supported wider participation. ESOL provision, Conversation Cafe sessions, Popular Education activity and targeted workshops created space for learning, discussion and increased confidence within a familiar community setting.

For many participants, involvement across these activities developed gradually over time, with people becoming more familiar with the centre, building relationships and engaging in wider opportunities across KCC.

Learning & Reflection

Throughout the year, it became increasingly clear that many people first engaged with KCC through activities or community events before seeking more direct support. In many cases, familiarity and trust developed gradually, with participation becoming an important first step towards wider involvement, increased confidence or accessing additional support when needed.

Activities centred around food, wellbeing, learning, creativity and social connection often became spaces where people felt comfortable returning regularly, building relationships and becoming more connected to others.

Change was rarely immediate or straightforward. For many, progress developed through repeated attendance, routine and sustained involvement over longer periods of time. In some cases, simply continuing to attend regularly, rebuilding confidence or maintaining social connection represented important and meaningful progress within people’s lives.

Community spaces often become part of the social scaffolding around people’s lives during periods of instability or uncertainty. For many people, support does not begin through formal intervention, but through repeated opportunities to return, remain connected and feel part of something familiar. This role is not always highly visible, yet consistent spaces, relationships and informal support can help hold conditions in place while people navigate difficult circumstances, rebuild confidence and gradually become more able to participate in wider community life.

Some people disappeared from activities for weeks or months at a time before returning again. Flexible and informal engagement helped maintain connection without creating additional pressure or stigma. People engaged with KCC differently depending on their circumstances, confidence and wellbeing. Informal conversations, drop-in support and opportunities to participate without pressure or expectation often helped people remain connected and involved, particularly during periods of uncertainty.

As well as practical support and organised activity, the year reinforced the value of familiar and welcoming spaces where people feel able to return and engage in ways that feel manageable and sustainable for them

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governance, Leadership & Organisational Development

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

Strategic Influence & Partnership Working

KCC played an active role in wider local and national discussions on prevention, wellbeing and violence affecting young people. Alongside direct work within the community, the organisation brought frontline experience and communityinformed insight into partnership, planning and strategy discussions.

Through ongoing engagement with young people, families and residents, KCC became increasingly aware of changing pressures affecting young people locally. These included the role of social media in escalating conflict, younger age groups being exposed to violence, and the wider emotional impact serious incidents were having across communities.

As public and political attention increased, KCC consistently advocated for violence affecting young people to be understood through a public health and community wellbeing lens, rather than through narratives focused only on criminality or ‘youth disorder’. This included contributing local insight to discussions connected to Glasgow’s developing City-Wide Youth Strategy and the Leader of the Council’s Motion on violence affecting young people.

Locally, KCC played an active role in supporting the development of the Garscadden/Scotstounhill Youth Strategy meetings, working with local organisations and elected members. This aimed to strengthen coordination, improve shared understanding of emerging concerns, and ensure local experience and youth voice informed wider planning.

KCC also continued to contribute to local decision-making structures, including representation on the Garscadden / Scotstounhill Area Partnership. This allowed KCC to bring community experience and local priorities into wider discussions connected to neighbourhood planning, community wellbeing and local development. The organisation also remained actively involved in a range of local and national networks, supporting shared learning, partnership working and collaboration across the sector.

KCC also strengthened relationships with national partners and practitioners working across violence prevention, youth work and public health. Engagement with the Scottish Violence Reduction Unit, the London Violence Reduction Unit and others

17 created opportunities to exchange learning, reflect on different community experiences and bring grassroots perspectives into wider prevention discussions.

A significant development was the relationship formed with MLCE in Brixton, London. Both organisations had experienced the impact of serious violence affecting young people within their communities and recognised the importance of shared learning and solidarity. The partnership created space to explore youth engagement, traumainformed practice, community responses following serious incidents and the role of trusted local organisations in prevention.

Across the year, KCC’s contribution extended beyond delivery. The organisation increasingly acted as a community-rooted voice within wider conversations, helping connect local experience with broader thinking on prevention, wellbeing and violence affecting young people.

Case Studies

Patrick

Patrick has been attending KCC since 2017. A sociable and creative man in his 70s, he regularly visits the centre for conversation and enjoys discussing books, history and world events with staff and other participants.

Over time, staff became aware that periods of poor health, grief and difficult personal experiences often affected Patrick’s confidence and ability to engage consistently with support or structured activity. Traditional appointment-based approaches were often difficult for him to maintain.

Rather than focusing solely on formal support, staff encouraged Patrick to engage in activities connected to his interests and creativity. This included storytelling sessions and, later, Brazilian drumming.

His involvement in the drumming sessions became notably consistent, even during periods where other areas of engagement remained difficult. Patrick described the sessions as bringing him ‘back to life’ and spoke about how meaningful they had become to him.

While challenges remain, Patrick’s participation has become more stable over time. The sessions have provided routine, enjoyment and opportunities for social connection, while also supporting stronger relationships with staff and increased openness around his wellbeing.

Mina

Mina first connected with KCC when her children began attending the Outdoor Youth Programme during school holidays. Through regular attendance, her children built positive relationships with staff and other young people while enjoying creative outdoor activities and social connection.

As the family’s involvement with KCC developed, Mina began attending the Breakfast Club regularly with her children. The group provided consistent access to healthy food at the beginning of the school day while also creating opportunities to meet other parents, build relationships and become more familiar with the wider life of the centre.

Over time, Mina became increasingly involved in different areas of KCC’s work. She became a founding member and volunteer facilitator within the Sudanese Women’s Group before later taking on a paid sessional role supporting the Outdoor Youth Programme during the October school holidays.

During this time, Mina also accessed KCC’s Welfare Advice and Support Service during a period of financial difficulty, receiving support around significant debt issues affecting the family.

Mina’s journey reflects how involvement within community spaces often develops gradually over time. What began through her children’s participation in youth activities developed into wider involvement, increased confidence and active participation across different areas of community life.

LOOKING AHEAD

As KCC moves into the next year, many of the challenges affecting individuals, families and communities are likely to remain significant. Financial insecurity, inequality, social isolation and the wider pressures affecting young people continue to shape daily life across the community.

Within this context, the importance of sustained community-led support remains clear.

KCC will continue to provide accessible opportunities for support, participation and connection through community-based activity, welfare support, group work and day-to-day engagement within the centre. While continuing to deliver our programme of activity, groups and services, the organisation will strengthen partnership working, contribute community-informed perspectives to wider discussions and advocate for approaches rooted in prevention, wellbeing and long-term community development.

The experiences of the past year have further reinforced the importance of stable community spaces where people feel able to return, build relationships and remain connected to others. For many people, our spaces provide not only practical support, but also consistency, belonging and trusted relationships during periods of uncertainty and change.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy

The Trustees have examined the charity’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation.

They have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds should be approximately three months of normal operating expenditure. Normal operating expenditure for 2026 was £246,795 (2025: £220,126) and therefore the target reserves figure is £61,699 (2025: £55,032) in general unrestricted funds.

The Trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the short term in the event of a significant drop in funding. The 2026 accounts show that the general reserves were £25,596 (2025: £28,245), significantly short of the above target level. The Trustees have an intention to increase the level of general reserves as far as possible so as to reach this target.

Results

During the year to 31 March 2026, the charity had total income of £309,610 (2025: £271,800), expenditure of £299,856 (2025: £262,686) leaving a net surplus of £9,754 (2025: surplus of £9,114).

The charity's total reserves at 31 March 2026 were £56,438 (2025: £46,684) and of these, the designated fixed asset fund totalled £nil (2025: £366), the unrestricted reserves total £25,596 (2025: £28,245). The remaining restricted reserves totalled £30,842 (2025: £18,073).

As pressures continue to affect people and communities in different ways, the role of community-led organisations as part of the essential social infrastructure becomes increasingly important.

KCC remains committed to working with residents, partners and the wider community to strengthen participation, wellbeing and community connection in the years ahead.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity is ruled under the terms of its memorandum and articles of association (known informally as 'the constitution') and was formed in November 2010. It is recognised as a Scottish Charity by the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR).

approximately one week before the meeting.

Key management remuneration

In the opinion of the trustees there is only one member of key management personnel - the Managing Director. The total employer cost of this post (including salary, employer national insurance and employer pension contributions) is £58,178 (2025: £50,701).

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Kingsway Community Connections (previously Kingsway Court Health & Wellbeing Centre)

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026 set out on pages fifteen to twenty seven.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of the independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005.

The financial statements are presented in UK sterling, which is the charity's functional currency, and rounded to the nearest pound.

There have been no changes to the basis of preparation this financial year or to the previous financial year's financial statements.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

All assets over £1000 will be captalised and depreciation is provided at the following annual rate in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
