Year Ending: 31 December 2024

Company activities and impact

The commencement of the company’s planned activities was dependent on successfully securing external financing and funding. Unfortunately, the company was not successful in raising the required funds during the financial year ended 31 December 2024. As a result, no operational activities were carried out and no income or expenditure arose during the period.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company’s intended stakeholders were identified as widows residing in the NW3 catchment area and widows referred through established personal networks. However, due to the lack of funding during the year ended 31 December 2024, the company was unable to commence its planned activities. As a result, no formal consultation with stakeholders took place, and the proposed workshop on International Widows Day could not be held. The directors remain committed to engaging with the identified stakeholder groups as soon as adequate funding is secured to enable meaningful consultation and delivery of services.

Directors' remuneration

No remuneration was received

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
