| |---|---| March **2012** **TAR** 2 ## **Section C Objectives and activities** The charity aims to protect children, achieve sustained poverty reduction, and economically empower vulnerable and marginalized families. In Sri Lanka, the focus is on provision of direct family support, access to quality education, skills training and women’s economic empowerment through projects in the Galle District. **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** In rural Nepal, the emphasis is on economically empowering survivors of trafficking, implementing income-generating programs, and promoting quality education.

Section D Achievements and performance Most of all March **2012** **TAR** 5 ## Section D Achievements and performance **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** In the aftermath of the pandemic, we've rebuilt our team to sustain fundraising and advance projects, crucial for ensuring sustainability and expanding our impact when those relying on our support need us more than ever. Managing the pandemic's repercussions continues to be a substantial challenge for our donors, volunteers, and especially for those we support. Incorporating a commercial trading arm has been a strategic move to increase revenue. Roxy, Rosie and Ruby, our electric tuk-tuk, are now available for hire, generating income to support local community programs. Our pink fleet of tuk tuks have become iconic figures, alleviating chronic loneliness, and promoting positive mental health in our local community. Our volunteer drivers, integral to this vital work, continue local initiatives such as delivering Fish and Chip Friday, visits from Tuk Tuk Santa, facilitating social tables and distributing food waste to local schools for families in need of food support to reintegrate and reignite communities. In Sri Lanka the economic crisis continues to push families onto or below the poverty line. Our focus on education has been vital and numbers have increased at the Rosie May Pre-School, as parents cannot access fee paying pre-schools, mostly the only option. We continue to provide free early years education and a nutritious lunch for 35 children each year. This year we introduced afterschool classes for graduates in their first year of primary school, to build on numeracy/literacy skills and close the gap. After-school classes for children 6-16 years have also been increased to develop English conversational skills and increase social mobility. Economic empowerment of families living in financial poverty continues to be challenging in the aftermath of the financial crisis. Our tuk tuk taxi drivers struggle with restricted fuel and increased prices, nevertheless these resilient women continue to support their families during this crisis with our continued funding. Families are kept together as single mothers are prevented from having to make the heartbreaking decision of relinquishing their children to an orphanage. The concept of women taxi drivers has been introduced into our hometown of Nottingham this year. In the UK less than 2% of taxi drivers are women so Think Pink addresses this shortage of female drivers by recruiting, mentoring, and training through a collaboration with DG Cars, Nottingham. The women drivers benefit from joining a supportive community of women drivers to create change in the industry and ultimately personal safety for other women.
