(a) The School

The children of Tongabezi Trust School all live in rural Zambia; the School’s primary aim is to provide them with an appropriate education, providing an opportunity to escape from the poverty trap into which they were born. The students currently begin their education journey in preschool (aged 3-4) and stay at the School through to Grade 9 (aged 14-15). The students continue into various secondary schools in Livingstone and the Southern Province, completing their secondary education from Grades 10 to 12 (up to age 18).

The main Sponsorship Programme is designed to ensure that children are supported all the way from preschool to the end of secondary school. Although the School teaches up to Grade 9, it is committed to empowering hardworking students to finish their schooling and receive a final school certificate.

The sponsorship amount is therefore calculated based on the average cost of this journey per year per child, and each donation goes into a shared fund to support preschool, primary, and secondary school programmes. Our sponsors then form direct relationships with individual children, as they are directly empowering the student’s educational journey.

Thanks to the support of our sponsors, the School can offer high-quality education to an underprivileged community from the very beginning of a child’s education in preschool to the completion of their secondary school in Grade 12. This improves the lives of not only our students, but their families as well, as education is the most effective way to break the cycle of poverty.

The School continues to offer not only an enriched academic programme, but a holistic education that includes a wide range of extra-curricular activities such as music, art, performing arts, chess, sports, and gardening. This ensures that students grow into wellrounded young people who can positively impact their communities.

During 2024, at the primary and secondary levels, the School supported a total of 374 students (290 at primary level and 84 at secondary school). 59 students were supported at tertiary level.

(b) The Twaabane Creative Centre

The mission of the Twaabane Creative Centre is to deliver high-quality vocational training, strengthen employment pathways, and increase income opportunities for the families of Simonga and neighbouring villages. In a community with a stubbornly high poverty rate, and low educational attainment, many residents rely on low-paid, unskilled labour opportunities to provide for their families. High-quality vocational skills training has the potential to make a powerful impact.

The Centre began activities in a very small way during the COVID-19 pandemic: both as a base for emergency food distribution parcels to support local families and a Community Garden programme to improve food security within the Simonga area. In 2021, the vocational programme was launched, as it became evident that tailoring and gardening skills were in high demand in the Simonga area. The Centre also provides adult literacy and numeracy classes for basic reading, writing and maths skills. A Women’s Empowerment Group meets once a week with a trained counsellor to offer guidance on social issues.

Section D Achievements and Performance in 2024

D1. Total Income : Total income increased by 16% to £344,515 (2023: £297,755). This was mainly driven by:

D2. Fund Raising Events : The Charity received £15,039 (2023: £6,391) from various organized events.

D3. Administration Costs : The Charity administration costs were £9,352 representing 3% of all income received (2023: £15,226).

D4. Achievements

a) The School Bus Project

In 2024, we faced increasing logistical challenges as Tongabezi Trust School continued to grow. Our first school bus - a second-hand 15-seater purchased in 2021 - was an essential part of daily life at the school, transporting both students and staff. However, it could no longer meet the needs of our expanding school community.

The bus was too small to accommodate an entire class of 26 pupils, limiting our ability to organise school field trips. It also struggled to transport all our teachers and support staff, many of whom rely on the school’s transport service each day.

Recognising this gap, we launched a fundraising appeal in early 2024 to purchase a second-hand 29-seater bus. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we were able to raise the necessary funds in March 2024 and purchase the bus.

The impact was immediate and transformational. For the first time, full classes have been able to travel together on educational field trips, unlocking opportunities for shared learning and exploration. The larger bus also ensures that all staff members have a reliable and comfortable way to get to and from school, improving morale.

The excitement among our pupils was unmistakable, with the arrival of the new bus bringing joy, pride, and a renewed sense of possibility to the school community. Parents and families from Simonga and the surrounding villages have also expressed deep gratitude for this enhancement to their children’s educational experience.

This project has not only improved daily operations, it has also reinforced our commitment to creating an inclusive, enriching, and accessible education for every child. We are deeply grateful to all those who supported the campaign. Their generosity

The Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School 2024 Trustees Annual Report www.tujatane.com

has helped us go further in our mission to nurture, inspire, and empower the children of Simonga village.

b) Alumni Spotlight - Maureen's Journey from Sponsored Student to Teacher

Maureen's journey with Tongabezi Trust School began in 2016 when she joined in Grade 8. Coming from Simonga village, where access to quality education is a significant challenge, Maureen was given the opportunity to attend junior secondary school through the generous support of donors. She completed Grades 8 and 9 at Tongabezi Trust School, sitting her Grade 9 exams in 2017. Her strong results earned her a place in secondary school.

Thanks to continued donor support, Maureen was sponsored through her secondary education from Grades 10 to 12, completing her studies in 2020. Like all Grade 12 graduates under Tongabezi Trust School support, she then joined our Gap Year Programme - designed to help students explore their future paths, whether vocational training or university, based on their academic performance and interests.

Maureen qualified for higher education and was awarded sponsorship to study teaching. Over the course of her three years at one of Livingstone’s top teaching colleges, she consistently excelled in her coursework and practical assessments, earning her teaching qualification in 2024.

The Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School 2024 Trustees Annual Report www.tujatane.com

In a remarkable full circle moment, Maureen was welcomed back to Tongabezi Trust School - this time not as a student, but as a dedicated assistant teacher in our preschool section. Her presence is an inspiration to the children she now teaches.

Coming from a humble background, Maureen is now able to contribute meaningfully to her family’s well-being through her employment. Her story reflects the transformative impact of education and the ripple effect it can have across families and communities. Through her determination and the support she received, Maureen is building a brighter future - not just for herself, but for the next generation of learners in Simonga.

As at the end of 2024, 65 students were being supported under the Tertiary Sponsorship Programme, each given the opportunity to pursue further education and build a brighter future for themselves, their families, and their communities. A further 10 students were slated to join the programme in 2025, continuing the cycle of empowerment and transformation made possible through the generosity of our donors.

c) The Water and Solar Project

In 2024, Zambia experienced its worst drought in two decades, with severe consequences for rural communities, including Simonga village where many of our pupils live. Water sources dried up, and families - already reliant on irregular and informal work - faced increased hardship as agricultural livelihoods were affected. The

9

The Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School 2024 Trustees Annual Report www.tujatane.com

drought also triggered severe power shortages across the country, with outages of up to 21 hours a day, affecting every aspect of life at Tongabezi Trust School.

These challenges had a direct impact on the school’s operations. Our water pump, which draws water from the Zambezi River, is powered by electricity. During power outages, the pump ceased to function, forcing the school to close early due to lack of water. While we had a solar borehole system in place as a backup, this too dried up during the drought. The power cuts also disrupted electricity in classrooms, teachers’ homes, and essential services across the school.

In response, we launched an urgent Water and Solar Power Project appeal in October 2024 to provide a long-term, sustainable solution. After successfully raising the necessary funds, the project was initiated at the end of 2024 and implemented in two phases.

Phase 1, carried out in December 2024, focused on strengthening the school’s energy and water infrastructure. Eighteen high-efficiency solar panels, five long-life tower batteries, and three inverters were installed. Most critically, the school’s water pump was converted to a hybrid solar-electric system. As a result, the school now has uninterrupted access to clean water, independent of the national grid. This development has eliminated the need to send children home early due to water shortages and has significantly enhanced the stability of daily learning conditions.

Phase 2, completed in early 2025, involved the installation of solar-powered air conditioning units in key learning areas to create a more comfortable environment during the hottest months. This phase also included relocating some solar equipment, which could no longer sustain the entire school, to the teachers’ houses on site- ensuring our dedicated teachers have reliable access to power and water.

Thanks to this project, Tongabezi Trust School has become significantly more selfsufficient, able to maintain full operations during prolonged national power outages. The successful completion of Phase 1 and 2 of the Water and Solar Power Project stands as a testament to the generosity of our donors, whose continued belief in the school’s mission has been vital.

Section E Financial Review of the Charity

E1. Income : The Charity continues to receive monthly (or annual) payments from approximately 300 generous individual or company donors, generally as contributions to either the ‘sponsoring a child programme’ or the ‘food programme’. The amount received of Restricted Funds from these donors in the financial year ending 31[st] December 2023 was £243,115 (2023: £241,065). Other Unrestricted Fund contributions (including Gift Aid) in the financial year totalled £101,400 (2023: £56,690). The Charity also has an account with JustGiving.com to allow sponsors to donate online.

E2. Gift Aid : £69,406 of Gift Aid was reclaimed from HMRC in respect of donations by Sponsors who pay tax in the UK:

E3. Deposits in the UK : At the end of 2024, the Charity was managing £1,188,552 (2023: £1074,945) across twelve separate UK financial institutions. It is also a policy to spread the risk on deposits held in the UK by restricting any one bank deposit so that it does not exceed the limit of compensation covered by the UK Government’s Financial Services Compensation Scheme ( £85,000 during FY2024 ).

E4. Bank Interest : The Charity earned £22,550 (2023: £14,874) interest on funds lodged in ten separate deposit bank accounts in the UK.

E5. Reserves Policy : The Charity Commission provides guidance in its paper “Charity Reserves: Building Resilience (CC19)” and states that a Reserves policy should be reviewed by the Board of Trustees on at least an annual basis. The regulator expects trustees to decide, publish, implement and monitor their charity’s Reserves policy so they can comply with their legal duties to:

The key theme of the guidance is that the policy requires a careful balance to ensure that charitable funds are committed as quickly as possible to meet needs of beneficiaries whilst, at the same time, ensuring that the organization has sufficient financial resources to deal with unforeseen or unplanned events. This is to ensure that operations can be maintained whilst remedial action is taken. The guidance also makes clear that the level of reserves held is fundamentally a matter of judgement for a trustee board which needs to consider the specific circumstances of the charity. In practical terms, most charities base the reserve target on some form of operational expenditure.

12

The Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School 2024 Trustees Annual Report www.tujatane.com

In considering reserve levels at the Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School, the trustees recommend carrying a minimum amount of twelve months of operational costs with an additional a 10% buffer (approximately £550,000 equivalent per annum). Such a minimum level ensures there is no significant mid-year disruption to our charitable activities and will enable the organisation to respond to any unforeseen reduction in income. This recommendation also underlines our commitment to deliver long-term societal and economic benefit to a whole community of underprivileged child and adult beneficiaries. Such an approach is also in line with our current investment risk-appetite to use fixed-rate cash deposit and notice accounts across UK banking institutions only.

At the end of 2024, the Charity held £290,534 (2023: £198,486) in unrestricted funds and £898,018 (2023: £876,459) in restricted funds.

E6. Transfers to The School : During 2024 the Charity transferred £221,556 (2023: £112,584) to the School’s bank account in Livingstone, Zambia.

The Charity keeps a close eye on what funds are held locally to heed the following advice of the Charity Commission:

when deciding how much money to hold locally in the country you are working, you should think about what risks your charity is open to. You could lose money if the local banking system collapses, or the exchange rate drops, for example. You should aim to keep the smallest amount of local funds you will need .

E7. Exchange Rate Fluctuation : The Zambian Kwacha exchange rate against the £Sterling at the beginning of FY2024 was ZK32.84 = £1. During the year, the Kwacha weakened and ended FY2024 at ZK34.81 = £1. The School receives significant regular donations from both the UK and the US and keeps a careful watch on both the US$ and the £Sterling exchange rates before it chooses which currency to exchange into Zambian Kwacha.

E8. Obligations to meet The School’s Financial Requirements during FY2025

is also dependent upon the value of the US$. The Trustees have set aside £25,000 to mitigate such risks in FY 2025, should the need arise.

Section F Financial Review of Zambia

F1 Introduction - Basic Country Details

Zambia is a large, landlocked, resource-rich country with sparsely populated land in the centre of Southern Africa. It shares its border with eight countries (Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe) that serve as an expanded market for its goods.

Zambia is experiencing a large demographic shift and is one of the world’s youngest countries by median age. Its population, much of it urban, is estimated at about 19.6 million (2021), with a rapid growth rate of 2.7% per year, reflecting the relatively high fertility rate. As the large youth population attains reproductive age, the population is anticipated to double in the next 25 years, resulting in additional pressure on the demand for jobs, health care, and other social services.

The following sub-clauses are as reported by the most recent information published on the World Bank Group website.

F2 Macroeconomic Developments and Outlook

Zambia’s economy is recovering from drought, with growth driven by mining, agriculture, and tourism, expected to increase by 5.8% in 2025. Public debt is forecasted to decrease from 133% of GDP in 2023 to 90.7% in 2025, as agreements to restructure about 94% of Zambia’s external debt are put in place. However, climate risks, shortages of hydroelectric power, and ongoing reliance on mining pose significant threats to an otherwise positive outlook. GDP growth is projected to average 6.5% for 2026–27, supported by activity in agriculture, industry (including mining and agrifood processing), as well as services linked to mining, agriculture, and tourism. Poverty is expected to decline by roughly 1 percentage point annually through 2027, but this progress could accelerate over the medium term as subsistence agriculture transforms, and urban labor markets improve.

Zambia ranks among the countries with the highest levels of poverty and inequality globally. Poverty reached 60% of the population in 2022, up from 54.4% in 2015, worsened by limited job creation and declining labor earnings. The urban population recorded the highest reversal, with an 8.5 percentage point increase in poverty incidence reaching 31.9% in 2022. The spike is undoubtedly linked to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing debt crisis. However, the growth deceleration that preceded the crises was already manifesting in weakening labor market indicators such as formal employment and earnings. Meanwhile, rural poverty remained widespread and stagnant, surpassing 75% since 2010. Rural/urban disparities in access to essential services remain stark, hindering human capital development and labor productivity.

F3 Political Outlook

14

The Charitable Trust for the Tongabezi Trust School 2024 Trustees Annual Report www.tujatane.com

Zambia gained its independence in 1964, under the leadership of first President Kenneth Kaunda. The nation is considered a stable country with successful democratic elections held every five years. After many years of a one-party state, Zambia became a multi-party state in 1991.

Zambia’s democracy is evident by the nine Presidential elections and four different political parties that have so far ruled the country. Among them are the United National Independence Party (UNIP 1964-1991), Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD 1996-2011), Patriotic Front (PF2011-2021) and currently the United Party for National Development (UPND). The current President Hakainde Hichilema of the UPND was elected in August 2021, after defeating then-incumbent President Edgar Lungu of the Patriotic Front. The next presidential elections in Zambia will be held on August 13, 2026.

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when
receivable.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet.
On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and
the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and
included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in
the trustees’ annual report.
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
• the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated goods
Contractual income and
performance related grants
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or
permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been
grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the
estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity
or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on donations
and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income
with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the
SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the
fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In
the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense
at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the
gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be
measured reliably.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and
Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits

are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from
charitable activities.
2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive
obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can
be measured with reasonable certainty.
Investment gains and
losses
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph
11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19,
FRS102 SORP.
Tangible fixed assets for
use by charity
The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2.
Governance and support
costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories
on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas,
or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
They are valued at cost.
Investments
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued
at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The
same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured
reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a
maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
Grants with performance
conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of
service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
Grants payable without
performance conditions
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.
Stocks and work in
progress
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net
realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable val
based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the con
