Trustees’ Report - Mission and Activities
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021. 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 communication with project partners is carried out by the Executive Officer.
Key Goals
- Facilitate - sustainable community development initiatives.
• Promote ‘children at risk’ education and prevention of trafficking - t hrough partner projects such as children’s day centres and education on a range of topics including health, inclusion, nutrition, relationships, sex education, people trafficking and lifestyle.
-
Job creation - income generation.
-
Training - to equip members of the local communities with essential skills.
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.
-
Advocacy and support - for those who cannot speak for themselves.
-
Building networks - between people, churches and organisations in Moldova and in other countries.
-
Capacity building - to help our partner churches and charities in Moldova to grow into sustainable organisations which can thrive independently without relying on Western donors. Breadline facilitates this by supporting training in project management, governance, fundraising and publicity, and organisational development.
Key Values
-
Unconditional - support is offered regardless of religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or ethnic origin.
-
Participative - involvement of all stakeholders.
-
Relevant - appropriate interventions that demonstrate respect for rights and choices.
-
Avoiding dependency - emphasis on achieving ownership, empowerment and sustainability.
-
Relationships - built on openness, honesty and trust.
-
People centred - focussing on our partners and their projects, recognising that they are the experts in their own culture and therefore providing support in a culturally appropriate way.

Overview of Developments, Activities and Achievements
In 2021 our church and charity partners in Moldova continued to embrace ministries across all 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, had to be modified to comply with current policies and procedures. We continued to support a day centre for children with disabilities in Straseni, and the Hope Club in Dancu. We collaborated with a speech and language therapist and architects in the UK to advise the team in Dancu on the building of a specialist centre for children with disabilities and their families. We supported a project aimed at reducing the risk for vulnerable girls from trafficking, and funded the Education Project which supported 25 young people through higher education. We facilitated the coordination of transport and delivery of over 27,000kg of humanitarian aid from UK partners to over 900 beneficiaries in 16 villages, providing welfare support for families and the elderly, and specialist equipment for patients at Emanuel Clinic in Chisinau. We funded the purchase of wood for winter heating and cooking for 50 households in Dancu, 30 monthly food parcels for struggling families, and a further 100 food parcels to beneficiaries known to our partners in Straseni and Cioropcani. We contributed towards medical costs, evangelical programmes, self-sufficiency projects for farmers, the training of 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 - we have partnerships with a number of UK charities, including Medical Missionary News and Moldova Mission, which continued to develop. We were delighted to have several opportunities to work together in support of our partners in Moldova.
We are 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 works 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,
Field - no official visits to Moldova took place due to the pandemic, but regular Zoom meetings were held between Breadline employees and trustees with our partners. We were also able to facilitate meetings between ourselves, our partners in Moldova and different supporters and Trusts in the UK.
UK - our Executive Officer was able to deliver two presentations to different churches via zoom in the spring, and when restrictions were eased in the autumn visited two churches in the UK. Trustees were able to travel to Liverpool in October for their AGM, and some stayed to attend the fund raising event in the evening.
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 - we provided the funds to buy seeds in the spring which produced an excellent harvest of 70 tons of wheat, 30 tons of maize, 36 tons of alfalfa and 4 tons of barley. There was enough grain to feed the cows over the winter and to collect enough wheat and barley seeds to plant next year’s crop.
• - Support for the horticultural project
included funds for seedlings (peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers and aubergines) for propagation in the two polytunnels. They yielded 1,150kg of produce, some of which were used fresh, some sold and the rest preserved for the family welfare feeding program for use throughout the year. In addition they harvested 1,500kg onions, and 5 tons of potatoes, of which 300kg were sold and the rest divided between 45 farming families, church members, Tabita employees, the 30 families receiving monthly food parcels and the weekly feeding program for the elderly.
• Dancu Tabita Cheese and Dairy Project - the income from the project continues to be a lifeline for Tabita and its 29 workers. Our support included purchasing a new cow to improve the herd, funding to build a larger storage room for the cheese which enabled them to take on and fulfil more contracts, the purchase of spare parts for the pasteuriser, and the funds to build the foundations for the new bakery, cafe, cow and heifer barn and the barnyard.
5
• 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 and church community events. Pastor Dumitru from Dancu received another special award in August 2021 when his name was added to a book of heroes of Moldova. This was in recognition of his service to the community, particularly by creating the Tabita Association to provide employment for local people and to support local farmers. In addition, he has initiated many of the welfare projects and as a Baptist Pastor he has worked hard to look after the spiritual needs of the community.
• Education - 25 young people, many of whom were at risk of being trafficked, were helped through vocational and higher education courses including accountancy, electrical engineering, teaching and languages. 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 the academic year, several secured work, and the rest enrolled for a further year. For example, Silvia who we have supported for 3 years is now teaching French to primary aged children in a school near Dancu.
• Work Skills Training - we supported two young people successfully through an English Course to help with the translation at Tabita.
• Small Business Start Up & Development - we supported a pastor’s wife in Bozieni to buy the equipment she needed to set up a hairdressing business. We continued to support our partner with his chicken business in Cioropcani which had struggled due to the pandemic, and another pastor to establish his goat farm. We provided 30 families who had children with disabilities, known by our partners from the Charity Mission, with 15 chickens each providing them with a ready supply of eggs and the opportunity to sell the excess.
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.
• Children’s Ministries and Safeguarding - Our partners run various children’s groups where they can assess and monitor children at risk and help to keep them safe, as well as providing regular food parcels and humanitarian aid for some of the most vulnerable families. Our partners in Dancu, Poganesti and the Charity Mission for children with disabilities from Straseni, were able to run adapted summer camps to comply with covid regulations. This enabled over 300 children altogether to enjoy meeting with large groups of friends, some of whom they hadn’t seen for two years due to the pandemic. This provided a wonderful opportunity for fun, restoration and healing from the trauma of the social isolation of the pandemic.
Support for People with Disabilities and Additional Needs
Breadline continued to support a day centre for children with additional needs in Straseni run by the Moldova Charity Mission. The coronavirus pandemic meant schools and day centres were required to provide children with their own individual boxes containing essential items such as pencils, crayons, glue sticks etc. We were able to buy these items for the ten children attending last year, in addition to new books and jigsaw puzzles. We also provided 50 children’s bibles, some of which included a “press and listen” feature which was particularly engaging for those with communication difficulties. They have purchased a property in Straseni to develop into a much larger day centre to accommodate children and adults with additional needs for which we provided the funding for a security fence.
The Hope Club in Dancu continued to meet as and when the pandemic lockdown policies allowed. We funded an outdoor holiday club attended by 20 children in June, as well as a party on 3rd December celebrating the International Day of People with Disabilities, when everyone enjoyed a meal together, games and received a gift to take home.
We facilitated consultation meetings between the team in Dancu, UK architects and Speech and Language therapist Sharon Rose from Ruislip Church to agree a building plan for the extension to the community centre to build a specialist space for children with disabilities and their families. Building finally began in May, and by December the shell of the building had been completed and insulated ready for the winter. Breadline supporters had contributed all of the funding for this project.
Breadline also contributed towards the building of a hydrotherapy pool at the Phoenix Centre for children with disabilities in Riscani, led my Victoria Dunford and the charity MAD-AID. Victoria has acted as an adviser to both the Hope Club and the Charity Mission as they move forwards with the building of their new centres.

Family Welfare and Medical Support
• Food Aid - in Dancu we supported the purchase and distribution of monthly food parcels to at least 30 struggling families. We also sent 40kg of vitamins for distribution in Dancu and churches in the Hincesti district associated with the pastors from the Mobile Training Team. A further 50 food parcels were delivered to families who had children with disabilities known to the Charity Mission, and 35 parcels were given to widows attending an event organised by pastor Vasile in Cioropcani.
•Mobile Medical Clinics, Care in the Community and Family Medical Assistance - the pandemic continued to have an effect on our partners at Emanuel Clinic (EC) in the capital of Chisinau, who had to adapt many of their activities to be presented in ways that complied with covid regulations.
•Mobile Clinics - with the support of our charity partners Medical Missionary News, EC delivered 9 mobile clinics throughout the year operating a strict appointment only policy which the host church facilitated, carrying out over 1,000 consultations altogether.
•Equipment and Medical provisions - Breadline supporters made regular donations of walking aids, dressings, catheter bags, syringes, stoma bags and other medical supplies throughout 2021.
•MMN’s support also provided funds for 20 people in need of emergency medical care, including several people needing treatment for covid, cancer and at least three people with broken bones following accidents. One pastor broke his back having fallen from his roof undertaking routine repairs. After three months lying on his back, he finally began physiotherapy and is now able to walk with support.
• Emergency Wood - the cost of wood and fuel has risen considerably during the pandemic. We provided funds to enable our partners in Dancu, Calmatsui, Ciora and Poganesti to purchase and deliver wood for heating and cooking to more than 50 impoverished families and elderly people, as well as supporting a family from Straseni with wood to last the winter.
Church Ministries and Training
• Church Training - we continue to support the 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 were held throughout the year, attended by 30 students each time to comply with covid regulations. With the help of the Stuart Hine Trust, they were able to purchase much needed equipment, including a printer, a laminator and a ringbinder in order to produce their own high quality resources for teaching, as well as a projector and screen.
• Evangelical Events - with the help of the Stuart Hine Trust and others, we supported three evangelical events in January for 200 children, and one in the north of the country in September.
• Youth and Children’s Work We provided ministry support for three youth workers in Dancu and Poganesti, and the funds for both villages to deliver summer camps, each attended by over 100 children.
• Church and Ministry support - in Dancu we provided the funding for a new boiler for the community centre and the funding for an accessible ramp to be built for the church. We also contributed towards the ministries and welfare of 23 church and charity leaders, missionaries and their families. This included providing regular support to four pastors and their wives who are foster parents, looking after up to ten children each.
• In Cioropcani, we supported Pastor Vasile and his wife Natasha to complete the building of their new house in time for the winter. They had previously been living with their five children in a two roomed home that was over 100 years old!
• Visits - no official visits were made between the UK and Moldova, although regular zoom meetings were held between Breadline, our partners in Moldova and other supporters and grant making trusts in the UK.
• Clothes Aid and Equipment - supporters, churches and our charity partners Mission Moldova sent over 27,000kg of clothing, tools, bicycles, domestic and medical items which were distributed to approximately 900 beneficiaries in 16 villages and patients in EC’s Home Care project.

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 2022/23 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), the cheese and dairy project and the bakery and cafe.
-
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 Mobile Training Team (MTT) to deliver a training programme which equips leaders and members from 33 churches in the Hincesti region and beyond, and delivering training programmes and conferences for the development of youth workers.
-
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 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 have make good progress with building 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 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 2021 through so many individual supporters, UK grant making trusts, churches, schools and volunteers.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BREADLINE
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021 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.
