## **SHIMBWE SCHOOLS** Underprivileged Children Sponsorship Programme 


We believe everybody has a right to a good education. For some families in the community school fees are prohibitive and some children are forced to drop out of education. For those who have had to make difficult decisions on how to prioritise their finances we are offering an Underprivileged Children Sponsorship Programme to make up the shortfall. 

We are currently supporting 8 students at different stages of their education from secondary school students to students doing diplomas in Nursing, Hotel Management and Political Science. We are also sponsoring an aspiring Tour Guide and are proud to be helping a student . complete their degree in Marketing

## **TEACHER SUPPORT PROGRAMME** 


For several years now educators whose dedication and teaching efforts enabled pupils to attain grades C and above in their CSEE (Certificate of Secondary Education) subjects, equivalent to GSSE, have been financially rewarded. To date the scheme has proved successful. 

Elsewhere on site we have continued construction and furnishing the ‘Teachers’ Office’. We have also provide financing for two teachers at the nearby Shimbwe Chini Primary School to alleviate a teacher shortage.

## **SHIMBWE DEVELOPMENT TRUST AND COVID-19** 


Like the rest of the world Covid-19 was a major challenge to the charity and the work we could do. 

On the operations side, restrictions and supply chain issues meant we have not been able to do as much as we would have liked. Travel restrictions left trustees stranded in Tanzania for over two years making the UK administration tasks required for the charity to run smoothly were delayed. 

However given the circumstances we are proud of what we have been able to achieve during this unprecedented time.

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Shimbwe Development Trust (Tanzania) (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
