1057777. The charity is governed by its trust deed dated 22 July 1996.
OrganisHtion
The trustees are the main goveming body of the charity. The trust deed states that there should be at least three trustees
and they sliould hold meetings at least twice a year. It is however the practic¢ of the Trustees lo ineet four to five times a
year.
Recruitment aiid Training of Trustees
It is the policy of the TTUStees to recruit new Trnstees when vacancies occur and to select those who are in tune with the
ethos of Ihe airns of the charity and can add a positive contribution to ihe charity.
New Ti'ustees are appointed at an ordinary meeting of the Trustees, or with requisite notice at a special meeting. Any
appointee will have been involved with the work of the charity previously and become familiar with its activity befoir
appointment.
Rl$li Ass¢$smen¢
The Trustees, approach lo risk assessment is to evaluate where events are to b¢ held, and to ensui-e their is no exposui'e to
loss in holding those events, and only coinmitting funds. after due consideration of the viability of the project, for grant
purposes that are available to the Trustees in cash. In this way, as the trust has no premises or employees, it can I'educe
substantially its risks.
The other area of risk for the I'ruslees is lo ensure that funds committed not only reach their destination but also are utilis¢d
specifically for the purpose intended, and to minimise that risk. the Fund only works with recognised agencies iii the ficld,
from where positive feedback can be obtained.

These activities al'e undertaken to further the chai-ity's purpose for the public benefit, and having had regard to
Charity Commission guidance on public benefit (Reg40-(2) (cxii) and Reg 32(2Xb)(i) and (c).
ACHIEVEMII NTS AND PERFORMANCE
The cliarity continued in 2024 with its core activity of fijnding the education of around 190 young people in Liberia,
In financial terms the costs involved were at the same level as in previous years allowing for inflation. There wa5 in fact a
reduction against Ihe previous year owing to a reduced level of project activity (2024.. £34,842 compared to 2023: £ 37,858).
The yeai. was also marked by a Trustee visit lo Liberia. The Trustees have great confidence in the people delivering its
aiins on the ground in Liberia bul visits on a 2-1 year cycle remain a key part of the oversight of the fund. The travel costs
in 2024 of £ 4,292 air viewed in Ihis Itght &s money well spent.
On the income side the finances were bolstered by a couple of subslantial legacies. The Trustees have expirssed their
gi'atitude to the families involved and take the opportunity to do so again here. The amounts involved will allow the chai'ity
to expand its scope in Ihe coming years.
Fund raising activity conlinued as nornial with the Salesian College arranging the annual quiz night and sponsoi'ed 'Run
for Sean, The Farnham Castle Ball was held for the second year thanks to the generosity of a couple of former classmates
of Seaii who make the facilities available free of any charge. This w&s a thoroughly enjoyable evening which brought Èn
close to £ 17,000.
Alongside these evenls the Fund continues to be supported by its many regular donors. For all the many contributions
made, both large and small, the trustees are most gral¢fvl. The projects supported in the year wer¢ all in Libci'ia (confwmed
as a note to the f￿anCIal statements and expanded in the note below).
Total grants distr&buted by the ￿nd since its forniation in 1996 now stand at £1,579,000.

RlIVIlI W OF ACTIVITIES
The Sean DeV￿tUX Childyen's Fund had anothei- success￿1 year which saw a bi - annual visit from Trustees to Libei'ia lo
review activity across iheir proj¢¢ts there. This was a v￿Y constructive visit wlieit Trustees spent time at the Sean
Deveyeux High School. They sat in on lessons wliilst also making ftctive enquiries into the operations of Safeguarding at
th¢ School. This was a relatively new con¢¢pt to the team there and it was very good to meet all teaching and support staff
to outline the Fund's expectations around ihis subject. Whilst accepting the limitations of distance between the UK and
Liberia, it was evident that staff wer¢ keen to learn and understand the requirement5. One of tlie Ti'ustees on the visits liad
beei) a teacher and had cu]Tency in th¢ subject and was able to explain the iEquirements. Subsequently. a policy foi.
Safeguai'ding has been adopted and a child support officer employed locally at the school who lis able to pix)vide support
and counselling for students.
Safeguardiiig policies have also been put in place in Tappita and within the Volunteers of Sean (VOS) team, who sei'vi¢e
iiumerous students in 70 schools in Monrovia. Again the contents were explained to staff along with expectations and tliis
was agaiii well received. The Tappita staff are from the Salesian Order and appear to b¢ very well vei'sed in the topic and
have eiicouraged reporting of concerns. Safeguarding is discussed at our Trustee meetings and is & key component of oui.
woi'k and governance.
VOS have worked hard to focus on identifying the students who were most in need across Monrovia. They were trying to
help blind and deaf sludents along with othei's wlio suffei. disabilities. A request for new laptops with braille capabililie5
was approved to help our blind students and they have made a big difference in assisling ihern to make good prowess in
Ilieir studies.
Having made the very long drive to Tappita - Trustees had sevcral positive meetings with the Salesian Fathers there, who
i'equested financial support so that tliey could create a larg¢ agricultural farni on the school campus. Initially they wanted
to cultivate 12 aci'es but would eventually wanted to extend that to l 00 acres. Request5 wei'e for equipment to cut back
foliage, seeds and implements to turn the ground. An agricultural van built on a small Inotorbike was also requested lo help
move produce into the local villages. Students at the school would be shown how to grow cl'ops and get vegetabl¢s grown
to feed their families. The Fund approved tl)e financial requests and much progress has been made and the Farni is named
the Sean Devereux Memoi'ial Farm. We see this as an exciting project that will be an ongoiiig cornmitment for the Fund.
Tappita is very impoitant to the fund, as it was there where Sean taught when he worked in Liberia, and the school had a
particular importance to him.
Other key projects this year include the provision of solar panels to the roof of die Sean Devereux High School, something
that has been long desired. Tliis means that there was now a stable supply of electricity at the school with no need to rely
on genei'ators and fuel that they use to keep them operating. It also opens the opportunity up foi. the school to be utilised in
the evenings for students and parents to enjoy social and educational events together. It has alre<idy had a transformative
impact with much promise for the future.
Work has also finally been undertaken to install some pull out partitioning in the main hall. This means that the hall can
be divided into two, so that more ¢lassroom space can be utilised for lessons. This had been a real hindrance historically
and the provision of some good quality, quiet classroom space has been successfully achieved.
At the nearby Folley Town farni, which is by the Sean Devereux team there, thnding has been provided to rebuild a
building previously used for cassava production. The building had been badly damaged in a stonn with the roof coming
off the building. A toilet wa5 also installed al the farni as previously there had been hygiene and dignity issues for the men
and women who work there.
Our fuEt two University students were seen during the visit and are both thriving. They had found the transport in to
University each day quite difficult due to distance and cost but they had continued to attend each day and wei'e on course
to move into their second and third years. Trustees are looking to provide some support to them to aid their studies.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial overview
The Statement of Financial Affairs on page 8 shows donations of £191.140 (2023- £25,890) aiid fund rdising events in the
year bi'inging in £21,931 (2023.. £21,069). grants made of £34,842 (2023.. £ 37,859) and expens¢s of £8,518 (2023: £8,379).
level of donations included two very substantial legacies.
The fund had total reserves of £286,220 {2023: £116,509) at the end of the year, of which £nil (2023: £nil) is restri¢t¢d,
and £56,757 (2023.. £63.172) is designated.
Reserves polley
Children enter the scholarship programme on the basis of need. This means that som¢ children enter the progr8rnme when
they first go to school and itquire assistance for up to twelve years, while others join one or two years before tliey complete
theii. secondary education. There are currently between 180 and 200 chIld￿n in the programme.
When setting a reserves policy for this area of the Fund's work, the trustees were conscious of the fact that, if the
pi'ogramme was to cease and all ￿nding was to slop immediately, many of the participants would simply not be able to go
to school. This is because the children and their parents are entirely reliant on Ihe programme for the money to fund the
childi'en's education.
Based oi) the above profile the ttu5tees consider that a cash reserve of £50,000 on the General Fund is sufficieiit. This level
also provides cover for any emergency grants the tiustees may wish to make. As a result of the legacy donation5 in 2024
the reserve balance is considerably greater than this baseline figure. It is anticipated Ihal the reserves cu￿entlY in hand will
be utilised in the mediuin term.
The ainounl of free reservcs held as at 3 iat December 2024 amounts to £229,463, (2023- £53,337), which is in line wilh
the Reserves Policy.

As it has bccome evidcnt. the sustain8bility of providing scholarships in Liberia from General Fund i'aising is
problematical. Theitforc a scheme ha5 been promoted to allow don0￿ to pay a monthly sum in sponsoring a child
