## **Section C Notes to the Accounts**
**C1 Nature and purpose of funds** _(may be stated on analysis of funds worksheets)_
SISU delivers its charitable purpose through a co-created, three-pillar approach — Empower, Amplify and Transform— supporting young women’s healing and wellbeing, amplifying lived experience to influence systems, and developing trauma-responsive practice, training and organisational cultures. All income and expenditure during this reporting period contributed to activity across these interconnected pillars. During the year, SISU received income from core multi-year funding, project-based grants, research and innovation partnerships, charitable activities, individual donations, and funds raised through our first public fundraising event. Core funding from the National Lottery Community Fund – Improving Lives and The Robertson Trust continued to underpin organisational stability. These grants enabled SISU to maintain essential staffing, programme coordination, governance, administration, safeguarding, operational overheads and strategic development — ensuring the organisation could deliver its mission safely, sustainably and relationally. Project-based funding from the Glasgow Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund and the Women’s Fund for Scotland supported the extension of programme reach and delivery of trauma-responsive, holistic support for young women across Scotland. This included wellbeing programmes, community connection activities, specialist facilitation, accessibility and participation support, and the creation of nurturing spaces for healing, confidence-building and peer connection — primarily contributing to the Empower pillar.
Funding received through the University of Glasgow and wider academic partnerships supported research, innovation and knowledge generation across the Amplify and Transform pillars. This investment enabled lived experience research, co-production, consultation, systems analysis, and the continued development of evidence-informed training, resources and feminist organisational frameworks. Additional unrestricted income — including individual donations and proceeds from SISU’s December 2024 fundraising and launch event — contributed to programme subsidies, participation costs and organisational resilience. All income was used in accordance with funder conditions, charity regulation and SISU’s overarching purpose: to build a society where gender no longer determines safety, value or opportunity.
