Christopher Hardy has acted as a temporary Chair until a replacement Chair is appointed. We are exploring appointing new trustees and people who are interested in the charity’s work are being approached.
Activities and Objectives.
We encourage donations for the work of IEM in India. Any money that is given is forwarded to India several times each year. In particular, we are raising money for the construction of a Girls’ Hostel in north east India.
Achievements and Performance.
At the end of the year we were encouraged that we had raised sufficient money to build the Girls’ Hostel and the building was dedicated on 14[th] November 2023 in the presence of one of our trustees. Money raised subsequently is going towards building of the adjacent Boys’ Hostel.
