Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 January 2024


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 January 2024. 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Our charity's purpose as set out in the objects contained in the company's memorandum of association are:

-To provide for the benefit of the public, assistance through mediation and conciliation service to help parents and young people where relationships appear to be breaking down, and where such relationships have already broken down, to advise and help in the settlement of differences or potential differences over associated matters; and

- To promote and protect the good health of young people from bullying and exploitation, in particular but not exclusively through the provision of a parent network to help co-ordinate mutual responsibility.

the Charity aims to unite and support parents and provide service and activities to families with children.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

We will review our aims, objectives and activities each year to look at the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months and what we have achieved. The review will look at the success of each activity and the benefits brought to the people we are set up to help. We refer to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The focus of our work

We highlighted the root cause of abuse in areas of high crime and deprivation turning our focus on sharing experiences and research with other charitable organisations and forming appropriate partnerships and associations. Bringing together the many charitable organisations and services in coordinated or shared funding bids led to a vast increase in hosted events and activities for parents and children.

Public benefit
We identified an appalling misuse of child protection law that literally protects the perpetrators and provides them with vulnerable adults and fatherless children. While we never intended that campaigning and petitioning would dominate our work, our community projects failed to attract significant funding because we addressed family inequality which very few accepted as a problem. Following the JCHR publication of our research on 19/02/15, we succeeded in highlighting this fraudulent abuse of the Children Act to the Home Secretary who subsequently influenced government policy reforms of Benefits, Housing and Child Protection. We submitted documented evidence to the current CSA inquiry into child abuse, the ICO, the Law Society and NSPCC. We are now involved in negotiations with an NSPCC Business Group Chair on a joint national project also supported by the Law Society.

As Ministry of Justice subcontractors, we plan to deliver advocate services for children of estranged, homeless or imprisoned parents and plea to the Youth Courts to keep young people out of YOIs. People with responsibilities generally behave responsibly, resulting in a lower re-offending and grooming of children for sex or crime. Active parents provide better protection for local children and become more likely to seek employment. We therefore plan a school and community education project that bring parents together and educates children about their future role and responsibilities as parents.

We continued mediating for parents to solve problems and social tensions both at personal and local community levels.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 January 2024

FUTURE PLANS
Future projects will expand on Government, Law Society and NSPCC backing to deliver community education, rehabilitation of young offenders and healthy living projects. We plan for Parenting Together Social Enterprise to provide housing for ex-offenders and parents of children at risk of grooming or exploitation, made available on a condition to enrol in our training and resettlement program. This will enable us to ensure the safety and improved prognosis for children in deprived unsafe social environments. We also hope to configure a refuge centre where men or women can take their children away from an abusive partner.

We want to promote activities and services improving the conditions of life for the persons in our most vulnerable families.

We aim to promote industry and commerce by teaching business skills and management to parents and young people interested in forming a social or business enterprise.

We visibly promote a confident community of parental networks cooperating in the community.
