Annual Review 2018 East End Community Foundation Jack Dash House 2 Lawn House Close London E14 9YQ Tel: 020 7345 4444 Email: [email protected] www.eastendcf.org BRINGING YOU EastEnd_CF Company No: 8104415 CLOSER Charity No: 1147789 ANNUAL REVIEW 20172018 Who we are Vision A philanthropic East End free of poverty. Mission To drive philanthropy and charitable giving that responds to community needs and aspirations in East London, both now and in the future. Bringing you closer to the... challenges facts people outcomes Welcome For the past six years at EECF, every year has been our most successful. This is an achievement we are extremely proud of, but the past 12 months have been particularly successful for several reasons. Firstly, we invested more money in the community than ever before, achieving our £1m target. We also won a national award for best practice in grant-making and we achieved exemplar status in the quality accreditation kitemark that UK community foundations are required to work towards. As a direct consequence of our increased investment in the East End last year, the impact we have achieved is greater than ever, with over 14,000 Howard Dawber residents directly benefiting from our support and almost 400 accessing meaningful employment. More impressive is the impact we have on Chairman people, as it can be life changing for some. A young person accessing an EECF-funded employment programme, and an example of the people we are helping, said “I joined the project as I really wanted to get into work. I’d spent so much time caring for my mum, who has mental health issues, and I needed help to get there. I feel like I’ve been re-awakened, I’ve learnt new skills and feel more positive. I’m now earning real money and feel positive, despite the challenges I may face.” These are the local people we are supporting, and there is so much more to do. These impressive achievements would not have been possible without the support of EECF’s trustees and the dedication and expertise of the staff, who are fantastic. As we enter 2018/19 we face a potentially challenging year in terms of the financial markets but with donor relationships flourishing as they see the benefit of their investment through us, and our locally elected Mayors all now in place, I am confident in being able to continue our ‘best year yet’ trend. The thing I love most about working for EECF is knowing that we have our finger on the pulse and our efforts make a genuine difference to those experiencing hardship. Our role as a grant maker, adviser and co-ordinator of social change means that our work is wide ranging, as you will see throughout this report. By investing EECF’s own resources and co-ordinating the generous donations of others, the amazing £1m awarded in grants was a collective achievement, and one that we could not have realised working on our own. This is a great accomplishment and something I anticipate being an ongoing trend for EECF and its donors. Tracey Walsh But success will not see us resting on our laurels as there is still so much Chief Executive to achieve. We will continue to strengthen our existing relationships and seek new partners who are committed to reducing inequality locally. 03 EASY,ACHIEVING RELEVANT A record-breaking RESULTS AND year EFFECTIVE A record-breaking year 1,424 CORPORATE VOLUNTEERHOURSBROKERED 241 WENTINTO FURTHEREDUCATION 2,200 ATTENDEDTRAINING £1m TOLEARNNEWSKILLS INVESTEDIN 5,726 13,000 GRASSROOTS 14,000 COMMUNITY PEOPLEDIRECTLY 23 TOOKPARTIN ACTIVITY BECAME SPORT & EXERCISE ACTIVITIESDELIVERED BENEFITTEDFROMOURSUPPORT SELFEMPLOYED 389 PEOPLEWERE SUPPORTED INTOWORK 2,910 193 PEOPLEFELT HEALTHIER & HAPPIER GRANTS WEREAWARDED 752 GAINEDA QUALIFICATION Thank you to all our corporate partners and fundholders for their support. 04 05 EASY,RELEVANT RELEVANT & EFFECTIVE AND EFFECTIVE The Societe Generale Community Fund is the latest in a number of initiatives we Established in 2017, the Societe Generale Community Fund supports have underway within our local young people on their journey into the world of work by improving community in East London literacy and educational development, through sport, arts or cultural activities. to support people through education and employability.

  • Wapping High School Impact Assessment
    Title: Wapping High School Author: Department for Education (DfE) Impact Assessment – Section 9 Academies Act Duty Section 9 Academies Act Duty 1. Section 9 of the Academies Act 2010 places a duty upon the Secretary of State to take into account what the impact of establishing the additional school would be likely to be on maintained schools, Academies, institutions within the further education sector and alternative provision in the area in which the additional school is (or is proposed to be) situated. Background 2. Wapping High School will be an 11 – 16, co-educational, non-faith secondary school. It plans to open in 2012 with an intake of up to 81 places in year 7, and a subsequent intake of up to 81 places each year until full. The school aims to reach full capacity in 2016/17 and will have 405 places. 3. The school will open with two temporary sites in 2012, and is planned to move to a permanent site at 153-157 Commercial Road E1 in 2013. The temporary sites are St George’s crypt (St George in the East, Cannon Street Road, E1 0BH) and St Paul’s crypt (St Pauls Church Shadwell, 302 The Highway, London E1W 3DH) 4. The proposers are a parent group from the area around Kennet Street, Wapping E1W. Their vision is for a 405 place non-faith 11-16 school in Tower Hamlets. The Trust wants Wapping High School to be a school for all children in the area, which is reflected in their inclusive admissions policy and meets the needs of the South Wapping priority zone - which currently has no secondary schools.
