## **NEWHOPE MINISTRIES TRUST Annual Report for the year to 31 March 2021**
New Hope Ministries Trust (Leeds) is registered with the Charities Commission (No 1070796) and constituted by Deed of Trust. The charity, whose objects are below, is administered by the Trustees, namely; Mr John Sloan (chair)
Dr Myra Sloan
Dr Clive Pleasance
Mr Jon Francis
Mr James Sloan
The objects of the charity are
1. To advance the Christian faith in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees may from time to time think fit.
2. To relieve persons who are in conditions of need or hardship or who are aged or sick and to relieve the distress caused thereby in such other parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees may from time to time think fit
3. To promote and fulfil such other charitable purposes beneficial to the community in parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the Trustees may from time to time think fit.
The website, www.newhope.co.uk is regularly updated to give information about the overseas work and current projects. The charity receives and passes on donations for the support of work in Uganda and
Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), a Christian worker in Canada, and an aid worker serving in Asia. We no longer support any other work or individual.
## Bankers
HSBC, Pensby Road, Heswall. The charity has two accounts, one predominantly for overseas medical work (New Hope Overseas) and the other specifically for the pastor in Canada (this was the original account and called New Hope Ministries Trust).
## Independent Examiner
Mr Duncan Meredith. He has acted as our Independent Examiner for some years and has not raised any concerns over the operation of the charity, nor the integrity of our finances.
## Voluntary help
The Trustees and other helpers work without remuneration.
## Risk management
The Trustees keep the Trust’s management under review, particularly with regard to fraud overseas, and a number of policies exist to achieve this.
1
## Serious incidents
There have been no incidents relating to the charity to report.
## Overview
The work overseas remains in Uganda (a school), in the DRC (a feeding programme, a school and a clinic), plus overseeing the support for 2 overseas workers. We do not send money to them overseas, but to UK accounts that they access on an as-and-when basis. Funds for Uganda and DRC are difficult to send, as Ebury have ceased to provide this service, and our bank will not. MoneyGram have blocked us and we face an existential crisis. Imagine If charity helps us with fund transfers to Congo, but we have no solution for Uganda, except to use Western Union, though we expect they may follow Moneygram. We are writing to the NCA and our local MP for help.
Regarding the new clinic in DRC, New Hope charity continues to work with Imagine If charity in Liverpool, as a partnership to achieve the best project management and oversight. Since we formally opened the clinic in November 2018, we have now added a pre-delivery building and a well providing clean water.
Sadly Covid has prevented the visit we had planned to train key personnel in Ultrasound. We have a more sophisticated machine to give to the clinic provided competency is deemed sufficient.
We have decided to terminate support for Issam Khoury via New Hope as we have been advised that it may no longer be allowed as he is neither a charity or a UK citizen. He is graciously accepting this and exploring other options.
## Financial summary
Monies are held and administered through 2 HSBC bank accounts and reported in one overall charity statement in the annex to this report. The income for all our work is mostly from regular monthly gifts and generous individual donations, often following an update on the work, plus proceeds from occasional charitable fundraising events. Expenditure covers the cost of overseas trips, regular support of the clinics, and the meeting of specific needs.
We continue to be under light scrutiny by HSBC safe guarding as part of their review of business accounts, though they seem happier than they were.
