The charity extends itself through Destiny Bridge Academy, Kampala Children's Centre (KCC), Destiny Bridge Church and the Bridge Leadership Network. Today, Kampala Children's Centre stands as the core project of the charity. Through its medical centre, housing, primary and secondary schools, it offers vital relief from poverty. It compassionately fosters the children in its care and equips them with industry skills. It offers workplace development programs, creative courses and full access to Destiny Africa Children's Choir International tours. It also invests in the community, extending leadership, health care and skill development programs both locally and nationally. ## **Governance** Governed by Trustees, the Board oversees the implementation of policy and recruitment of senior staff for the Charity. Trustees are selected from a wide range of relationships established through the missionary work by the founder, Arnold Muwonge. Trustees are expected to understand the vision and objectives of the charity and promote its values. All new Trustees are subject to the approval of existing Trustees and are to actively support the communities within which we operate. Although founded upon Christian values. Nations Discipleship Enterprise serves persons from all backgrounds. The day-to-day management of the Charity has been delegated to Leah Fletcher. This is overseen by Arnold Muwonge (Trustee) and Martin Little (Treasurer). Remuneration levels are set by the Trustees and are reviewed on an annual basis. The Trustees have reviewed the risks faced by the Charity, and systems have been established to manage those risks. ## **Core Objectives and Activities** The Charity considers the provision of housing, food, education and healthcare to vulnerable children as one of its primary objectives. Its core values also include the mentoring of young people and the training of church, business and community leaders. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general information on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities. ## **End of Year Report for the Period April 2021 - March 2022** NDE-Network UK has continued to work hard in creating programs and supporting the work of Kampala Children’s Centre, Uganda. Our UK Trustees, staff and volunteers have worked hard to ensure that UK administrative, governance, and fundraising efforts are well co-ordinated and beneficial to the entire charity. In Uganda we have continued to give the best care to the most needy children and young people living in Wakiso town council and its neighbouring communities through our warm loving children's home, KCC and schools; Destiny Bridge Academy, Primary and Kindergarten as well as Stride High School. **2** ## **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Trustees Annual Report (** _**Continued**_ **)** ## **Year ended 31 March 2022** ## **Financial Review** During the year, incoming resources raised amounted to £202,676 (2021: £260,521). Resources expended on the activities of the charity, amounted to £212,526 (2021: £268,627). The closing fund balance is £39,375 (2021: £49,225) and will be utilised in the future for charitable activities. ## **Financing** The charity raises its funds from individuals, churches and well-wishers who subscribe to the philosophy of its causes. Funds are raised for specific causes, restricted or allocated as per donor preference. Due to the shortage of full funding for the Charity's programs, the Charity does not hold a reserve account except in the form of unused restricted income which later gets allocated to the intended projects. ## **Education** Due to the pandemic there have been significant changes to our education programs. Hundreds of our students in the community couldn't attend school due to lockdowns and those at KCC had to be home schooled. To mitigate the negative impact on the students and bridge academic gaps, we resorted to online learning and providing printed education resources directly to students in the community. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, our education program continues to benefit both the resident children at KCC and non-resident vulnerable children in our family based care program. ## **Childcare & Health** KCC continues to take care of resident children including babies and students in the surrounding communities. Our partly completed medical centre continues to serve the children, staff and COH children. The medical centre building continues being built amidst challenges of lockdowns and restrictions. We have been able to provide tons of food to hundreds of starving families during lockdowns. ## **Coronavirus** Our programs have been immensely affected due to lockdowns and restrictions. We moved to home and digital learning. Also 13 staff and 8 university students caught the virus, however, we are relieved that they all fully recovered. At the time of writing this report schools are still closed and learning continues at home and digitally. ## **THE YEAR AHEAD** ## **Short Term** - Preparing for the re-opening of schools - It is hoped that the Destiny Medical Centre will open in 2022 - Destiny Africa shall continue with online concerts and meetings ## **The Long Term** - Keep developing the STEM Centre at KCC - Establish a talent and skills development academy within our current secondary school structure to help our young people on career planning and employability - Continuing with the refurbishment of the KCC campus **All this wouldn’t have been possible without the generosity of our supporters and the commitment from our staff and volunteers. Thank you.** ## **May God richly bless you.** **3** ## **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Trustees Annual Report (** _**Continued**_ **)** ## **Year ended 31 March 2022** ## **Independent Examiner** Having expressed a willingness to continue in office, a resolution for the appointment of Mitchell Charlesworth will be proposed at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. ## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. **6 Broad Road Sale Cheshire M33 2AL** **----- Start of picture text -----**

**4** ## **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Nations Discipleship Enterprise** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 14. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity’s trustees 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 charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the 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 charity 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. ## **Jamielee Johnston CA Independent examiner** **Mitchell Charlesworth (Audit) Limited 3[rd] Floor** **44 Peter Street Manchester M2 5GP** 23/12/2022 **5** ## **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Statement of Financial Activities (including income and expenditure account) Year ended 31 March 2022** |||**Unrestricted**|**Restricted**|**Total**|Unrestricted|Restricted|Total| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |||**Funds 2022**|**Funds 2022**|**Funds 2022**|Funds 2021|Funds 2021|Funds 2021| ||**Notes**|**£**|**£**|**£**|£|£|£| |**Income:**|||||||| |Donations and legacies|**4**|**5,619**|**22,105**|**27,724**|5,744|25,931|31,675| |Other trading activities|**5**|**45,588**|**129,364**|**174,952**|129,225

| **8** **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements** ## **Year ended 31 March 2022** ## **1. Company information** Nations Discipleship Enterprise is a charity incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 6 Broad Road, Sale, Cheshire, M33 2AL. ## **2. Accounting Policies** The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: ## **Basis of preparation** The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. Nations Discipleship Enterprise meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). ## **Going concern** At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. ## **Incoming resources** All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income. Donations and legacies are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when received. ## **Expenditure** Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: - Costs of raising funds are the direct and indirect costs of raising funds for charitable purposes. - Charitable activities include expenditure associated with the provision of the Charity’s services and include both the direct costs and support costs relating to these activities. - Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories either directly where identifiable or on a basis of time spent on supporting and managing projects. - Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. ## **Funds structure** - Restricted funds are funds subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by the donor or by the purpose of the contract/monies received. The purpose and use of restricted funds are set out in note 15 to the financial statements. - General funds are unrestricted funds, which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. **9** **NATIONS DISCIPLESHIP ENTERPRISE** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements** ## **Year ended 31 March 2022** ## **2. Accounting Policies** _**(Continued)**_ ## **Fixed Assets** All fixed assets are included at net book value. Additions of a single item or a group of similar items exceeding £500 are capitalised at cost. The Trustees consider that the valuation remains appropriate as at 31 March 2022. Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives as follows: Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost ## **Cash at bank and in hand** Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. ## **Creditors and provisions** Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. ## **Financial instruments** The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. ## **3. Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. ## **4.
