Trustees’ Report - Mission and Activities
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020. Breadline is a Christian charity constituted as a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 16 January 1997, and is therefore governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. The day-to-day administration and liaison with project partners is carried out by the Executive Director and Assistant Director.
Our Objective and Mission
Our objective is to help to relieve poverty in Eastern Europe. Our particular mission is in the Republic of Moldova where we give support to local churches and charities that are committed to serving the poor and disadvantaged in their communities. We work alongside Christians as they seek to embody the life of Jesus Christ in their local communities through word and action.
Our Aims
-
• Sustainability To help people to escape the poverty trap, discover their full potential and live sustainable lives.
-
Partnerships - To establish partnerships with Christians and local churches to enable them to develop ongoing community projects and ministries.
-
Links - to connect churches and charities in the West with churches and charities in Moldova.
-
Unconditional support - as a Christian charity, to work unconditionally with the poor as we seek to demonstrate, through word and action, God’s love for all people. We respect the right of individuals to pursue their own beliefs and never press our faith on those we are working with.
Key Goals
-

Overview of Developments, Activities and Achievements
In 2020 our church and charity partners in Moldova continued to embrace ministries across the full spectrum of age groups including children at risk, the elderly and people with disabilities and additional needs.
The coronavirus pandemic meant that some of the projects such as summer camps and regular children’s groups were cancelled. However, we continued to support a day centre for children with disabilities in Straseni, and the Hope Club in Dancu, working in partnership with a speech and language therapist who provided specialist therapies and training on inclusion for people with disabilities and additional needs to churches, social workers and charities, sometimes via Zoom. We supported a project aimed at reducing the risk for vulnerable girls from trafficking, and funded the education project which supported 24 disadvantaged young people to access higher education. We facilitated the coordination of transport and delivery of over 22,000kg of material aid from supporters and UK partners to approximately 900 beneficiaries in 16 villages, providing welfare support for families and the elderly at risk. We funded the purchase of emergency wood for winter heating and cooking, winter emergency food supplies, medical costs and clothing, evangelical programmes, selfsufficiency projects for farmers, a mobile training team to train ministry leaders of 33 churches, a mobile medical clinic to remote rural communities, and provided financial support for church leaders and their families.
UK Partners and Networking - existing partnerships with a number of UK charities, including Medical Missionary News and Moldova Mission, continued to develop. We were delighted to have several opportunities to work together in support of our partners in Moldova.
We are also grateful for the continuing advice and support we have received from Trusts, Christian farmers, and other members of the community in Northern Ireland, who play a key role in the development of the Tabita agricultural project we support in Dancu, western Moldova.
USA Partners - Breadline continues to work closely with our USA charity partners Globalway and AGConnect Ministries to raise funds and provide advice towards the development of the dairy, cheese, agricultural and horticultural businesses belonging to our partner Tabita in Dancu, Moldova.
Field - due to the coronavirus pandemic, field trips were either cancelled or not planned. Executive director, Brian Pile, succeeded in visiting our partners in Dancu just before lockdown in February 2020, together with trustees Barry Fawcett, Phil Lanyon, and supporter David Crick. This trip enabled them to monitor projects, in particular the development of the dairy and cheese factory, build relationships and evaluate the needs of the community and other projects.
UK - travelling was restricted due to the pandemic and most visits and talks had to be cancelled. However, Brian Pile and assistant director Di Acaster did accompany Pastor Slavic from Dancu at the beginning of March on a short tour of the UK to visit several churches and trusts where presentations were given. Some presentations and further communication has continued since March via Zoom. They also advised churches in developing their relationships with our Moldovan partners and supported fundraising events.

Summary of Partner Supported Activities in Moldova
•Building Sustainable Livelihoods - our partners continued to help others in their communities to build sustainable livelihoods through a range of small, low-cost projects that in recent years have transformed the lives of hundreds of people and their families. Projects we supported included
• Dancu Church Tabita Agricultural Association - 108 farmers received mechanisation support to farm their land more efficiently. However, Moldova experienced their worst drought in 40 years.
This resulted in all staple crops such as wheat, maize and sunflowers yielding between 77 - 95% less than in 2019. Farmers were able to store these crops in Tabita’s community barn.
• Support for the horticultural project -
included funds towards a mini-irrigation system for the growing of potatoes, and the purchase of seedlings such as peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers for the two polytunnels. This project was vital in producing over 500kg of produce for the on-going Tabita family welfare and elderly feeding program. In addition, 10,000kgs of potatoes were distributed between the 108 farmers whose cereal crops were so reduced.
• Dancu Tabita Cheese Project - against the backdrop of the drought, the income from this project has become a vital lifeline for Tabita and its 29 workers. Our support includes the purchase of a modern pasteuriser, a compressor, a standby power generator and funding towards an additional cheese maturing room, all of which are crucial towards the long term development and sustainability of this project.
• - Dancu Tabita Dairy Project the continuing development of the dairy is vital for the sustainable future of Tabita’s cheese project.
In 2020, Breadline supported a number of important steps in this process, including the purchase of a new efficient milking system, 14 new cows, the construction of a paddock and the enlargement of the existing dairy parlour to accommodate the growing herd.
• Dancu Tabita bakery - with the support of Ditty’s bakery in Northern Ireland, we continue to help Tabita’s non-commercial bakery which produces bread for several feeding projects including for the elderly, children at risk, church community events. During the pandemic, the bakery provided free bread for 80 of the poorest members of the community, mostly elderly people at risk, every week.
• Education - 24 young people, many of whom were at risk of being trafficked, were helped through vocational and higher education courses. Despite the challenges facing them due to the pandemic, such as the colleges closing and courses having to be completed on-line, all of them successfully passed their examinations for academic year. Three students completed their courses and went on to work, whilst the rest enrolled for a further year.
• Work Skills Training - in July and August we funded a woodwork project in Dancu which carried out essential repairs to the Tabita community play park. They constructed several new pieces of apparatus for the children as they came out of lockdown.
• Small Business Start Up & Development - we supported 4 income generating projects, including a dress making workshop in Dancu, a small dairy run by a pastor in Crasnoarmeiscoe, a pastor’s chicken farm in Cioropcani, and a pastor’s bee project in Pascalia. We also supported a project in Corbani which gave 16 poor families 25 chickens each. These families agreed to donate two chickens each to other needy families in the village and provide eggs for the church community centre feeding program.

Children at Risk
• - Prevention of Trafficking this is mainly addressed through the education project mentioned above, and by providing vocational training through the sustainable businesses being created in Dancu. Our partners in Dancu, Straseni and others run various children’s groups where they can assess and monitor children at risk and help to keep them safe.
• Children’s Ministries and Safeguarding -
children’s clubs, church meetings and schools were closed for most of the year due to the pandemic, leaving vulnerable children at even more risk. By supporting our partners in Dancu to deliver food parcels to at least 50 vulnerable families every month (photo right), they were able to help monitor and safeguard these children.
Support for People with Disabilities and Additional Needs
The coronavirus pandemic meant that from March 2020 many of the activities associated with these ministries had to stop, including all summer camps. The Moldova Charity Mission (MCM), which runs a day centre in Straseni for 14 children with disabilities, had to close. However, through Breadline’s support they were able to remain in touch with all of these children and their families, providing regular food parcels and resources to their families so that they could continue with their learning at home. Just before the lockdown in March, we supported them to hold a special event for 20 mothers of children with disabilities on Mothers Day, when they provided them with a meal after the service and presented them with a small gift each.
In Dancu, the Hope Club for children with disabilities and their families also had to stop meeting, but again they remained in touch with the families by telephone and by taking regular food parcels and Christmas presents to the 10 families they support. They are planning an extension to their community centre to create a specialist space for these children and their families to meet, which will provide therapies and support. With Breadline’s help they were able to prepare the ground ready to begin building in Spring 2021.
Speech and Language therapist Sharon Rose arrived in Dancu in October 2019, supported by the Church Missionary Society but in collaboration with Breadline, to support this ministry in Dancu. She had delivered some inclusion training and had begun work in schools but had to return to the UK in March 2020 due to the pandemic. She remains in close contact with Breadline and our partners, continuing to help train and provide resources. Breadline supported three people to attend an on-line communication training event last autumn. In partnership with Sharon, we host regular meetings via Zoom with the Hope Club team to advise and guide the plans for the extension.
Breadline also funded a team from both the Hope Club and MCM to visit the Phoenix Centre, which is a centre of excellence for children with disabilities in northern Moldova, to help them network and fact find about building their new centres
Family Welfare and Medical Support
• Food Aid - in Dancu we supported the purchase and distribution of emergency food parcels to over 200 beneficiary families, including at least 60 elderly people at risk. We also contributed to the purchase of a further 44 food parcels distributed by our partners MCM in Straseni and our partner Pastor Vasile in Cioropcani. In addition we were able to refill gas cylinders for a further 12 elderly people for cooking purposes. Our UK partners Medical Missionary news (MMN) also contributed towards these emergency food parcels.
Mobile Medical Clinics, Care in the Community
and Family Medical Assistance - the pandemic also had a profound effect on our partners at Emanuel Clinic (EC) in the capital of Chisinau, and many of their community activities had to be temporarily cancelled then reopened to be delivered in a Covid secure way.
7
• Mobile Clinics - with the support of our partners MMN, EC delivered 2 mobile clinics before lockdown to rural areas where medical care is sparse, providing a total of 162 free consultations to patients who may otherwise struggle to access medical help.
•Emergency food parcels - with the kind support of MMN, the clinic was able to deliver emergency food parcels to the 80 patients in their Home Care Project, whilst continuing to provide medical care.
•Equipment and Medical provisions - Breadline supporters made regular donations of walking aids, dressings, catheter bags, syringes, and other medical supplies throughout 2020.
• New Minibus - MMN made a significant contribution which allowed EC to purchase a second vehicle. This enables them to be more flexible with their work, including the delivery of mobile clinics, home care visits, the delivery of aid and the special institutions they support such as orphanages, residential homes for the elderly and prisons.
• MMN’s support also provided funds for 21 people in need of emergency medical care, including a pastor with a brain tumour and a Tabita farm worker who was gored by a bull.
• Emergency Wood - we provided funds to enable our partners in Dancu and in Poganesti to purchase and deliver wood for heating and cooking to more than 35 impoverished families and elderly people in four villages).
• Clothes Aid and Equipment - individual supporters, partner UK churches and charity partner Mission Moldova sent over 22,000kg of clothing, tools, domestic equipment and medical items to Moldova, which has been distributed to approximately 900 beneficiaries in 16 villages.
Church Ministries and Training
• Church Training - we continue to support a mobile training team (MTT) to deliver training to 33 churches and a Bible training program for up to 40 leaders each year.
Three bible training modules (55 students) were held from January to early March 2020. Seven students successfully passed the course for the 2019/2020 academic year. It is hoped that the remaining training modules can be resumed as soon as possible.
• Evangelical Events - with the help of the Stuart Hine Trust and others, we supported 3 evangelical events in January and February in the Hincesti region.
• Youth and Children’s Work - sadly, due to the C19 crisis, all of our partners summer camps were cancelled. However, we continue to provide ministry support to three youth workers in Dancu and Poganesti who remain active in supporting young people.
• Women’s ministry - we continued to support this ministry in Dancu. Despite not being able to meet due to the pandemic, the women individually contributed to the knitting project using materials sent by Breadline supporters. In the autumn they delivered 42 pairs of socks to the children and young people with disabilities who attend a day centre in the nearby town of Hincesti (photo right). This centre has a special relationship with the Hope Club. They also provided socks for 72 boys aged 12 - 18 at a juvenile prison.
• Church and Ministry support - in Dancu we contributed to a new roof and heating system for the church.
We also contributed towards the ministries and welfare of 23 church and charity leaders, missionaries and their families.
• Visits - in February, our Executive Director and two trustees visited our partners in Dancu to evaluate and monitor projects. In March, we supported Pastor Slavic to visit the UK where he met with various grant making trusts, churches and supporters to deliver presentations, provide feedback and to build relationships.

Future Developments
We will continue to seek support for our partner projects and ministries and, wherever possible, facilitate direct links with individuals and churches in the UK. In 2021/22 we look forward to continuing our support for a number of new and ongoing projects, including:
-
facilitating the development of the Dancu Tabita Agricultural Association (TAA) and the cheese and dairy project.
-
supporting TAA in its vision to empower other communities, churches and their leaders in the Hincesti region to develop sustainable livelihoods.
-
continuing to support the vital work undertaken by the Dancu Mobile Training Team (MTT) in its delivery of a training programme for equipping leaders and members from 33 churches in its region and others beyond.
-
facilitating the MTT’s vision to share about its model of training at the point of need with churches and Bible Colleges in Moldova and overseas i.e. Latvian Bible Centre in Riga.
-
supporting the development of ministries to people with disabilities and additional needs, and inclusion awareness education. The Moldova Charity Mission has outgrown its current day centre which is currently attended by 10 children aged 3 - 16. They have purchased larger premises to convert into a new centre that will accommodate more children and also young adults aged 16 - 25. They hope to incorporate a way of income generation within that project. Our partners in Dancu are also at the stage where they are ready to build the extension to their community centre to create a specialist space for the Hope Club. Breadline will continue to work alongside both partners to help network with specialists both in the UK and Moldova as they research how best to move forward with these projects and expand their ministries.
-
with the assistance of MMN, to enable our partner Emanuel Clinic to develop its mobile clinic activities. In addition we will continue to help support people within their home care project by proving donated equipment and medical items from the UK which would otherwise be thrown away.
-
equipping and enabling our partner churches and charities in Moldova to be more effective in what they do, through training in leadership, teamwork, management and fundraising.
-
empowering the poor and marginalised to realise their potential and achieve sustainable livelihoods through encouragement, practical support and training, especially projects which enable young people to develop their gifts and skills to serve others in need in their own communities.
-
supporting projects that provide young people at risk from trafficking with educational and vocational training opportunities.
-
supporting projects that bring churches and communities together, and providing educational resources for schools and family welfare.
THANKS
We give thanks, praise and glory to God for His amazing provision for Breadline in 2020 through so many individual supporters, UK grant making trusts, churches, school and volunteers

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BREADLINE
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020 set out on pages 11 - 18.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner
The Trustees (who are also Directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act) and that independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility:
-
to examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43 (7) of the 1993 Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking of explanations from you as Trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (revised 2005) have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
