This was a steady and largely uneventful year, but after the drama of the last few years of the Pandemic, a quiet, steady year was more than welcome. Our finances began to improve a little and we were able to employ two of our graduates, and some of our long-term, overseas professional volunteers were able to return and provide professional development for our staff.

Section D Achievements and performance
This was a much smoother year of operations than those of recent times Summary of the main and the obvious effects of the Pandemic began to dissipate. Local financial achievements of the charity support for our school began to return as businesses recovered and we during the year received financial support from several hotels and resorts. The local golfing community held another very successful fundraiser for both us and another local NGO. We also received support from an international school from Hong Kong who were interested in their students seeing the working of our school. We did indeed have several visits from schools throughout the year, and although we do not encourage tourists visits as a whole, we do think it is important for young people (especially the young people of Vietnam) to have their eyes opened and to see just how functionally and ‘normally’ children with disabilities can live their lives with the right kind of support. It is a core part of our mission to increase awareness about and to dispel the prejudice still facing people with disability. In March this year, we were visited by Mrs Penny Eggleton, a special education teacher from New Zealand who has worked with us before, to run a refresher course on SPECS (a picture exchange communication for children with limited communication ability) for our teaching staff. Following this, a workshop on the basics of fostering communication with their special child was held for the parents of our pupils. In other professional training, our long-term physio trainer, Kally Heinemann from Germany, spent a month with us to embark on the job of training our new physio, Mrs Nhung. Although there are many qualified physios in Vietnam, they are typically trained in rehab (largely due to the many motorbike accidents) and are not experienced in working with young children with disabilities. It takes a particular kind of temperament to be able to do this well and after a long search, we are very optimistic about the future abilities of Mrs Nhung. Mrs Nhung also has a young child with Cerebral Palsy who has never been able to find the right learning environment and we are very happy to have him attend our school. We have approximately 200 young children on our waiting list. As more students begin to graduate from our school, we have the problem at the other end of what will happen to them when they leave school. Job opportunities are virtually non-existent. All of our graduates are much better equipped to be integral members of their families once they leave our school and are able to participate fully in family life. However, we have recently been trying to keep some of our very high functioning graduates at the school as volunteers as they are more than capable of working. Due to our financial situation, we are only able to give them pocket money but due to some upturn in finances this year, we were able to take 2 of these graduates on as full-time employees. Thi Hien, who has learning difficulties, was employed as a classroom aid and Phan Bao, who has Autism, became a classroom assistant. Bao was later heard to declare, “I’m not disabled anymore, I have a job!” A fairly small but highly satisfying project that we were able to carry out was to fundraise to adapt a regular motorbike into a 3-wheeler, with various modifications that made it suitable for use for one of our former students. Danh has Cerebral Palsy and lives far away from our school but he considers it his second home. This new motorbike gives him independence and the ability to visit us at the school whenever he wants to, which is often! Danh describes having this bike as a dream come true. This was a quiet but steady year at our school, with much progress in terms of development of the children and also the professional development of our staff.

Section E Financial review

Brief statement of the
charity’s policy on reserves
We hold a total cash balance of £141,629 in our bank accounts at the end of the financial year. As part of our policy of demonstrating good financial management practice, we aim to hold 9 to 12 months of operating funds in reserves at the end of each financial year. As we have increased staff salaries this year due to the increasing cost of living in Vietnam, the total cash balance of £141,629 represents approximately 10 months of expenditure at current monthly expenditure rates. The coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on our finances but we are committed to ensuring that the organisation remains sustainable for the foreseeable future. The setting aside of these reserve funds is therefore intended to guard against possible future loss or reduction of income, and ensure continued delivery of services in Viet Nam.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts

On accounts for the year 06 January 2024 Charity no 1094902 ended (if any)
Set out on pages ~~PO~~ (remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets) Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in responsibilities of accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given examiner’s statement 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 explanations from the trustees concerning any 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 In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my statement attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or
-
the accounts do not accord with the accounting records
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
