Company activities and impact

PART 1 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY’S ACTIVITIES AND IMPACT In the space provided below, please insert a general account of the company’s activities in the financial year to which the report relates, including a description of how they have benefited the community. Research, Policy and Advocacy UNJUST’s research work was limited because the researcher role was not filled in the recruitment drive. UNJUST’s Executive Director Katrina Ffrench was appointed as a member of the Reducing Reoffending Third Sector Advisory Group hosted by Clinks. The RR3 was established in 2008 to provide advice to ministers and officials on reducing reoffending. It draws on voluntary sector expertise and presents concerns and opinions about future priorities, issues, and policies that might affect the sector. Members were recruited through open advertisement against a person specification. The group meets quarterly and is attended by senior officials from both the Ministry of Justice and HM Prison and Probation Service. The group is made up of representatives from across the voluntary and community sector. As part of the RR3 work, UNJUST met regularly with senior leadership in HMPPS’s Disparities Unit. Discussions centred on Black Prisoners' access to Mental Health Services and DIRFs (Discrimination Incident Reporting Forms), the official prison mechanism for reporting discrimination, harassment, or victimisation under the Equality Act 2010. Recent HMPPS and independent reviews have recommended improvements to their use, investigation, and trust. RR3 membership allows UNJUST to raise issues affecting Black and racialised communities and influence policy and decision-making. UNJUST was invited to participate, as a guest speaker, in a workshop at the Public Law and Technology Conference hosted by the Public Law Project. The workshop gave UNJUST an opportunity to share our strategic litigation experience. UNJUST continued to sit on the steering group for Black Lives in Music’s REMEL (Race Equality in Music Events Licensing) research project. We contributed to discussions on the report's development, findings, and publication. Casework We undertook casework and provided advocacy to people affected by the Met's handling of their Subject Access Requests (particularly those relating to the former Gangs Violence Matrix). This involved supporting people, coordinating updates, assisting with complaints, and raising issues about the Met's failure to disclose information in a timely or complete manner. Stakeholder Engagement We have been in regular correspondence and engagement with the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), including meetings with senior officials to hold them to account, promote transparency, and ensure compliance with their data protection obligations following the judicial review. That work is still ongoing. We also worked with solicitors and pro bono partners on several criminal justice cases relating to gang profiling, police intelligence, disclosure, and wider policing issues. We built and maintained strong relationships with legal and policy stakeholders, including DLA Piper and MOPAC, to support UNJUST's work on police accountability, data justice, and racial fairness in the criminal legal system. Consultations submitted, and roundtables attended: Submission to the Crown Prosecution Service gang consultation Attendance at the Anti-Racist Roundtable at Garden Court Chambers Media To raise awareness about our work, UNJUST featured in the following interviews: SW Londoner Interview: South West Londoner. Is it time for London to overhaul its drug policing tactics? (2025) Inside Times: Last chance to discover if you’re on the Gang Violence Matrix (2025) Organisational Development UNJUST’s leadership decided to focus the organisation’s attention on stability and growth in 2025/2026. A range of internal activities took place: Strategic Development UNJUST began reviewing its organisational strategy in early 2025. We commissioned external consultants to support stakeholder engagement and lead the strategy drafting. Funding UNJUST established relationships with three new funders and was successful in five funding applications. Capacity Building and Service Development To strengthen UNJUST's leadership and stability, the Executive Director applied to participate in Do It Now Now’s Innovate Now training programme. The programme aimed to empower leaders to position their organisations for growth. To support diversification and income generation, UNJUST designed a variety of fee-paying workshops to market and sell to a range of clients. Team Expansion Keen to use core funding from several funders, UNJUST sought to expand the team. A recruitment drive was launched for several roles: Research and Policy Lead, Media, Communications and Campaigns Lead and Community Engagement Coordinators. Unfortunately, the drive was unsuccessful, and the posts went unfilled. Although the staff vacancies remained unfilled, we offered three people volunteer opportunities. Partnerships and Coalition As part of The Harm to Healing Collective. UNJUST attended the community meetings and visioning retreats. We helped develop the Blueprint and assisted with fundraising PART 4 – TRANSFERS OF ASSETS OTHER THAN FOR FULL CONSIDERATION – Please insert full details of any transfers of assets other than for full consideration to an asset locked body or for the benefit of the community. This must include the amount, or contain a fair estimate of the value, of such transfer. If this does not apply you must state that “no transfer of assets other than for full consideration has been made” below. No transfer of assets other than for full consideration has been made.

Consultation with stakeholders

PART 2 – CONSULTATION WITH STAKEHOLDERS A “stakeholder” is any person or organisation affected by the company’s activities. Please indicate who the company’s stakeholders are; how the stakeholders have been consulted and what action has the company taken in response to feedback from its consultations. If there has been no consultation you must state ‘There has been no stakeholder consultation held’. As part of UNJUST’s strategy development, UNJUST held three strategy consultation events, a series of stakeholder conversations, and an online roundtable to determine what UNJUST does well and where it is best placed to contribute to criminal legal system advocacy. Through ten 1-1 conversations, allies shared their views on UNJUST’s past, current, and potential work, and where they felt the organisation adds value. Three in-person strategy events were held with: Organisations in the sector Community members Young people Conversations were held with: Staff working within relevant Third Sector organisations working to change practice within the in the criminal legal system and/or to achieve racial justice Campaigners and academics with lived experience of the criminal legal system Policy and research consultants working at the intersection of incarceration and reimagining public safety Members of UNJUST’s legal group Additionally, desk research was conducted and we hosted an online roundtable exploring the reimagining of public safety beyond policing in the UK context with six participants working at the intersection of racial justice and the criminal legal system. Participants in both the conversations and roundtable shared that UNJUST’s core work is the right work for the organisation, that they should take a leadership and coordination role on the theme of reimagining public safety, that UNJUST should build its legal group and where appropriate, participate in strategic litigation and develop its communications to include media commentary and appearances. These conversations also suggested challenging the surveillance state and working with grassroots groups to trial and pilot projects. These key themes were then presented to the board for reflection. The feedback from the consultations was used to draft the 2026-2029 strategy.

Directors' remuneration

PART 3 – DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION – Please indicate below any remuneration the directors have received. Alternatively if you have provided full details in your accounts then you do not need to disclose it here but you must explain in the space below where they are found within the accounts.

In addition to remuneration received by Executive Director Katrina Ffrench, as stated in the accounts, UNJUST paid £150 to Director Leesher Sandy and £150 to Michael Magumbe.
