Chair’s Report – Jean Ajin

It is with great pleasure that I bring to you the Annual Report of the Mityana Charity for 20212022.

Another turbulent year but we still have continued to improve the lives of our friends in Mityana, through your generosity and our valiant team at PaCT carrying out our projects.

Although some of our staff developed COVID and recovered as they had had their vaccinations, sadly one ex-member of the Blood Water project lost his life.

The sponsorship programme now supports 326 children plus 30 grandmas/guardians. The children have increased by 20 despite 8 leaving at the end of their courses. The grandmas/guardians are encouraged to use their monthly monies to develop a project which will help sustain them and their dependants in the future. We were saddened to hear that one grandma lost her life when a wall and roof collapsed on her. Another two were helped to rebuild their home.

Thank you to those who sent money to buy food for Christmas and/or a gift for their child. Also we thank those sponsors who were able send a letter to their sponsored children as this is really appreciated by them. Last year, our sponsorship online system started working and it is a quick channel for sponsors and their children to communicate. We encourage all our sponsors to continue using it

The children returned to school in January. Last year, they either had lessons at PaCT or were supported with homework which was marked by the teachers we employed.

The Resource Centre was used for the children to come and revise during the time they were not

in school. Some took out books for reading at home.

The Business Incubation Centre (BIC) won a contract to make uniforms for one of the schools our children attend. We hope that other schools will use this service. The sponsored children started skills training with making reusable sanitary towels and shoe making. This keeps them busy when they are not at school but also enables them have a useful skill which they can gain an income.

Our main achievements have been the building of two maternity wards at two clinics along with providing latrines, water tanks, furniture and medical equipment. Thank you to the two donors who provided the money to build them. They will certainly help keep the mortality rates down as the pregnant women can have regular check-ups and deliveries much closer to home.

As part of the WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) Projects we have provided three water tanks: one to collect water off the roof at a clinic and two at two primary schools. Two sets of latrines have also been provided.

The Human Rights & Prison (HRP) Project is continuing to help reduce violations of women and children’s rights. This year they have focussed on creating safe environments for girls, through camps on gender-based violence, as there has been a serious violation of human rights and a life-threatening health and protection issue during the COVID epidemic. To celebrate the Day of the African Child, 28 children in The New Life Children’s Centre, a home for orphans in Bulera in Mityana District, were given food and basic items.

As yet, we haven’t been able to further develop the community and training hall at PaCT’s facility. Any donations and fundraising gratefully received. Once this is up and running, this hall will permit some local fund-raising by PaCT.

We receive regular PaCT monthly financial and project reports, which highlight monies received and spent. It is essential for us to ensure that funds sent are used for their intended purpose. Whenever possible we send photos to the donors showing what has been achieved with their donations. Project reports discuss activities carried out during the month. They also identify any safeguarding issues which have arisen and specify the actions that have been taken.

I cannot thank you enough for your continued support to the Mityana Charity. Without you, we would not have continued to help improve the lives of so many people in the last 27 years. We greatly appreciate the contributions made by sponsors and donors, school and church groups, fundraisers, companies and volunteers.

Many thanks go to the many donors who provide substantial funds to support the sponsored children, and to those listed below who have made major contributions either by giving their time or making large donations. The dedication of our trustees here and our Ugandan team has made this charity very special. I want to particularly thank Rev. Hugh Wakeling for all his help in raising a lot of money and instigating various WASH and building projects. Without his enthusiasm and drive these would not have been achieved.

Finance – Mityana Charity Accounts

As shown in the final accounts, income in 2021/22 financial year (1 March 2021 to 28 February 2022) was £201,256 with expenditure of £168,463 giving an in-year surplus of £32,793. Details are given in the financial accounts on pages 23 to 27. The following graph summarises income and expenditure on 2021/22.

Additional information about the funding of individual projects is covered in the project reports.

The following gives some details about the funding of non-project items.

There are three main risks to the charity.

Effort goes into ensuring that there is sound management of the charity’s finances.

The gift aid coming from donations plays a key role in funding the non-project costs (primarily staff and the associated running costs) in Uganda which are required for the charity to operate effectively. All donors who are eligible to give gift aid are encouraged to do so. The gift aid form can be obtained from http://mityanacharity.org/files/gift_aid_form.htm. Completing the form will allow the charity to claim 25p of gift aid for every £1 donated, but has no impact on the personal finances of donors.

The trustees would like to thank all our donors, big and small, as every pound makes a big difference to the lives and wellbeing of the people in Mityana.

Charity Organisation and Operating Processes – Nigel Birch/Jean Ajin

Organisation

Mityana Charity is registered and compliant with regulations of the Charity Commission beta.charitycommission.gov.uk/charity-details/?regid=1064825&subid=0

The Charity is run by a committee whose membership includes trustees of the Charity. Various committee members are designated Project Leaders for the main areas of work funded by the Charity.

The Charity works with PaCT (Partners for Community Transformation) formerly named as Mityana (Uganda) Charity. It is a Ugandan registered NGO (Non-Governmental Organisation) which manages the projects in Uganda. The relationship between the Charity and PaCT is governed by a Memorandum of Understanding.

The Charity has no paid employees within the UK but supports the employment of an Executive Director and other administrative staff in Mityana who manage projects funded by the Charity. The UK Project Leaders monitor progress with projects based on monthly reports provided by PaCT. PaCT also carries out projects that are not funded by the Charity. A monthly financial report is sent to us by PaCT.

UK Trustees and Committee Members

The Charity’s trustees are members of the UK committee elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Also, there are a few members of the committee who are not trustees – they can contribute to overseeing the activities of the Charity without the additional legal responsibilities of being a trustee. Due to the small numbers of committee members there is no formal process for selecting and vetting trustees. Those who want to serve on the committee are personally known and trusted. The trustees are responsible for the running of the charity according to its Constitution and the Law and ensure that all decisions taken are based on sound judgement. They ensure that financial accounting and monitoring of the Charity’s work is at a high standard.

The minutes of all committee and specific trustees meetings are fully documented. These are referred to when carrying out the annual financial review. The trustees are responsible for the approval of the statement of accounts.

Public�Benefit

Public benefit in the UK relates to the Charity’s interaction with its donors, sponsors and churches that have an interest in the Charity. These relationships help to communicate and inform a wide audience about developments in Uganda in particular and Africa in general. Also they provide a opportunities for individuals and organisations to support international charitable activities in an efficient and effective way.

Public benefit in Uganda is provided by the community projects that have been funded by the Charity and executed through PaCT. The Mityana community clearly benefits from the projects funded by the Charity. These projects align with the aims and objectives of the Charity.

Administration and Communication

Our computerised database, with the overall objective of making the administration of the Charity more efficient, is complete allowing more people to take responsibility for various elements of the administration, rather than being totally reliant on just a few key individuals.

7

The system focuses on sponsors, donors and other interested parties and allows us to:

We have had generous donations of Corporate Sponsorship from two organisations (Mandeville Recruitment and The Flatman Partnership) to cover the annual costs of running the system again this year.

PaCT has a separate database which holds all child-centred data. It aims to improve the way sponsors are updated with news of their sponsored children. All reports, letters etc are online in the Ugandan database and it is the sponsors responsibility to check on updates. Sponsors have been informed of their unique number and password. Please let us know if you are unable to log in. The system has been designed for sponsors to be able to reply to the letter their child writes. The replies go through to our sponsorship department in Mityana, who read and show the letter to them. This is also essential for safeguarding the children.

Data�Management�Systems,�Data�Protection�

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect after 28 May 2018. It is essential that you ensure that you have signed up for us to continue sending you our standard communications: newsletters, AGM invitations and Annual Reports. Please go to www.mityanacharity.org/mailing.php if you do not receive the standard publications but would like to do so.

Sponsorship Programme – Jo Riddaway

Ugandan children have endured the longest lockdown in the world, having been out of school for most of two years. Consequently, we have tried to mitigate the detrimental impact of the lockdown on the education and well-being of our sponsored students.Thanks go to everyone who has continued to support the fees, expenses and gifts for the sponsored students. Even when the schools were not open, all the sponsorship donations were used to support the students for whom the funds were intended.

Support during lockdown

During the lock down in 2021 it was decided that funding should be provided to support the continued education of many of our sponsored students. This entailed using £1,070 from the charity’s sponsorship programme plus reallocating about £530 already provide to PaCT for activities to support the sponsored students.

Using the additional lockdown funding, all our exam class children had the chance of extra teaching organised by the PaCT team, then they returned to school as boarders before their exams in November. These children achieved good results. In fact the best we have ever had! All but one were able to go to a secondary school in January 2022.

The sponsorship team, headed by Florence Nabukalu, have worked hard to enable all the children to have access to learning resources in the PaCT centre wherever possible. Consequently, using the lockdown funding, two teachers provided worksheets for each age group and marked them when they were returned.Also many children took advantage of the books available in the Resource Centre. During the lockdown the sponsorship team continued to support the children’s welfare needs by mentoring, providing medical help, and running classes to learn new skills.

8

In November 2021 we sent out £2,664, partly from the charity’s reserve, to pay for activities to help keep our older students out of trouble. Two years without school had left some very vulnerable. The activities included football, volley ball, drumming, singing and craft activities.

Return to normality

The Ugandan government decided students would automatically resume classes on 10 January 2022, and be in the year above where they left offbefore lockdown. Thanks to the generosity of their sponsors most of the new P7s (i.e. students in their last year at primary school) have been provided with the extra fees enabling them to board in 2022. This means they can attend the extra classes provided to prepare for their Primary Leaving Exams.

The university and vocational college students have all resumed or started their courses.This has involved a large number of students thanks to the generosity of sponsors. In all 15 students are studying various vocational courses including: Nursing, Welding, Plumbing, Tailoring and Fashion Design, and Hairdressing and Cosmetology. Also two students are going to university to study Agribusiness Management and Information Systems and Technology. Most courses are two or three years and only very generous sponsorship with support from the unused fees of past graduatesallows them to continue their studies.

We have 30 grandparents supported with a monthly donation by individual sponsors. These grandparents are encouraged to start a project so they can gain an income in the future. Some are rearing chickens, goats or pigs whilst others have small stalls selling fish or vegetables. Also some use some of their monies for medication. Margaret Kisuule, our retired health worker, visits these grandparents as many have diabetes and high blood pressure.

Other sponsorship activities

As in the past, the focus of the sponsorship programme is to support the educational development of our 326 sponsored students. However, there are various activities and initiatives that are an essential part of the programme.

Though not formally part of the sponsorship programme, two teachers have been sponsored at Nabukenya Primary School and funds have been provided to develop the facilities at Patience School.

Safeguarding Report – Jenny Penfold

The Charity Safeguarding Policy was reviewed at the Trustee meeting in October 2021. It was amended to include reference to safeguarding from outside exploitation. It can be seen on our website.

Our meeting resolved to ask for an annual report from the PaCT board giving evidence of their safeguarding responsibilities. This should include brief reference to:

Throughout lockdown, PaCT’s primary role has to been to keep contact with children and grandmothers, who are often the carer for sponsored children and safeguard their interests. Where money is available, specific projects are initiated such as the Human Rights Projects.

During the second lockdown, school visits could not happen and home visits were restricted. No specific safeguarding issues were reported but support was given. However, it was reported that children, particularly adolescents, were vulnerable to exploitation (e.g. ‘Get rich quick schemes’ and sexual activities). Counselling sessions for both girls and boys were held warning them to be alert and giving guidance where needed.

The need for activities to keep our children occupied was recognised as a safeguarding issue. PaCT organised football, netball, music, dance and drama sessions to help occupy bored children, as well as the counselling and supplementary education sessions.

Hopefully life is returning to ‘normal’ and safeguarding again will involve schools as envisaged.

Building Projects: Ajin House and Raglan Hall – Richard Tudor

Ajin House is now well established as the base for PaCT – the NGO that carries out the work on the ground in Uganda, supported by ourselves, as well as other charities, while the new Business Incubation Centre (BIC), also known as the Hildens Business Hub, is a secure working building for use of start up businesses. The Resource Centre within the Ajin Building is also an important facility for our sponsored students and children, but funds are always needed for additional resources for their use.

During the pandemic, the grounds have been used to provide sports and craft activities and support for the sponsored children while schools have been closed.

The aerial photograph above shows the partially completed Raglan Hall, with the new Business Incubation Centre.

Funding has so far been provided by Raglan House, Wellington College, but some £40,000 will be needed to complete the building. Donations and grants are being sought to progress this project, which will provide an income and keep the charity self-sustaining in the future.

WASH�(Water,�Sanitation�&�Hygiene)� Projects – Hugh Wakeling

During 2021 it has been more difficult to complete as many projects as usual, but thanks to the persistence of the Team in Uganda the following has been achieved.

1. Water Tanks have been provided to harvest rain at the following three locations:

Mpenja Maternity Unit Bright Fund Foundation Bbuye Primary School B Wakeling Nakaziba Primary School Edward’s Trust/St Sebastian’s Church

2. Four-door Latrines have been provided at the following two locations:

Mpenja Maternity Unit E Baxter/D Richmond/St Sebastian’s Church Kyetume Primary School Edward’s Trust

Below are photos of the water tank at Nakaziba Primary School, and the latrines at Kyetume Primary School.

Our next WASH Project will be a latrine at St. Noa Kabulamuliro Primary School. This will be a “girl friendly” facility with an additional cubicle and washing for the use of girl pupils during their periods. Construction on this was started in February 2022.

Thank you to all who contributed funds to make these facilities possible.

Health Projects - Hugh Wakeling

Thanks to the generosity of Claire Choudhury and Andrew and Sarah Dodd we have been able to continue the programme of providing Maternity Units at Health Centres in villages far away from other maternity services.

On 2 November 2021 the Mpenja Maternity Unit was commissioned and handed over for operation. The local Member of Parliament came and made a speech.

The Maternity Unit for the Kikandwa Health Centre is now virtually complete and is due to be commissioned in April 2022.

There is a real problem in Uganda in providing health services in the villages. There are no doctors at these facilities, but nurses and midwives do their best to help the local people, when they come for treatment. By providing these maternity units we are providing safe venues for babies to be born, with the aid of a midwife. And those with complications can be identified early on and transported to a hospital.

Human Rights and Prison Project –�Diane�Simpson

PaCT’s third strategic objective is to improve protection and respect for Human Rights in society. Consequently, PaCT aims to contribute to a harmonious society that respects Human Rights and the related legal requirements. This is done through creating awareness, engaging communities and local leaders to appreciate and uphold their roles and responsibilities in addressing challenges and violations related to Human Rights.

UK funding for Human Rights and Prison Project has been very much dependent upon the impressive fundraising activities of Orange House, Wellington College. Their long-term commitment to this project has been greatly appreciated. Due to the ongoing effects of COVID large fundraising events have not been possible so the project funding has been significantly reduced.

Gender Based Violence

This year PaCT has focussed on gender based violence (GBV) which has seen a significant increase in lockdown. The emphasis has been on creating awareness and facilitating activities to fight GBV.

PaCT has partnered with the GBV focal person in Mityana District to establish interventions that help prevent GBV cases in their communities.

In October a two-day training event was held for change agents including Youth Leaders, Community Development Officers, Parish Chiefs, Councillors and Head Teachers. The training aimed to educate, and develop understanding on the causes and impacts of GBV and the many forms it takes, as well as identification and support for victims. The areas of GBV identified include: femicide, child marriage, relationship violence, sexual violence and abuse within the home, sexual harassment and kidnapping.

Women Leaders in conjunction with probation and welfare services organised 200 adolescents to attend 4 specially designed camps to address specific issues relating to their age group. The topics covered included drug abuse, sex and sexuality, peer pressure, life skills, and career guidance. These workshops came at a particularly good time as with school closures due to COVID some young people were engaging in unhealthy and in some cases illegal activities which could have a major effect on the rest of their lives. Opportunities for sharing experiences and lessons learnt were an integral part or the workshop.

Children’s awareness has been raised by the distribution of a child-friendly leaflet. Initially this covered child marriage and labour. Also there were messages on local radio and creative activities that encouraged expression through poems, dance and music.

In November in the Namween and Bambula Parishes (where there is a higher prevalence of GBV) various woman’s groups and Mothers Unions were brought together to discuss violence and human rights violations against women and children. They also discussed strategies to deal with them, most of the participants of these groups have themselves been victims.

14

Celebration of the International Youth�Day

This event is aimed at promoting the economic wellbeing of young people in the changing world. One of the key activities was conducting various Radio talk shows which had young panellist which gave them the opportunity to share their views and ideas to decision makers in their region. The talk show also continued to tackle domestic violence and how it affects childrens’ growth and well being.

Promotion of Children’s Rights

PaCT liaises and engages with different schools with the aim of helping and empowering children to know their rights and become responsible citizens. Activities are aimed at skill and knowledge development to promote awareness, and encourage appropriate assertion through advocacy. PaCT have a monitoring function to assist in the development of annual plans, facilitate activities and guest speakers. There is also indirect communication with the managers of schools in regards to safeguarding issues.

Prison project

COVID has widely spread across the country and had a big impact on prisons. In response the HRP project has engaged different prisons on matters of prevention strategies, as well as continuing to provide advice on legal issues and prisoners’ rights.

Prisoner’s rehabilitation

The project aims at promoting the welfare of the prisoners as well as facilitating their rehabilitation through training and meaningful activity, such as arts and crafts sessions. There continues to be particular emphasis on women and on their skill acquisition by providing training for future employment, for example in the use of knitting machines and the process required to complete an item of clothing. All the money raised through sales goes back to the garment maker.

Mityana and Myanzi prisons have been unable to work in the fields this year so they have been well supported during the year with knitting materials to continue both engaging women and men.
