|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|2020 saw our general project running and<br>planning affected by the onset of the<br>Coronavirus worldwide.<br>Managing Trustee Canon Pat Atkinson<br>attended the projects (her 57th visit) in<br>March. Much of that visit was spent in<br>appointing new trustees for the registered<br>trust in Mavelikara, Kerala. This was to<br>enable a change of direction for the Trust.<br>3 new trustees were appointed following the<br>retirement of previous trustees. Appropriate<br>registration details were completed. Plans<br>for use of the Mavelikara buildings were<br>discussed within constitutional boundaries.<br>Canon Atkinson also spent time in Madurai.<br>By late March it was apparent that a global<br>pandemic was imminent, so plans were<br>made for the evacuation of vulnerable elders<br>from our own home to a remote rural area.<br>Plans were also in place for protection of the<br>slum projects and people involved.<br>As the pandemic worsened the vulnerable<br>elders were evacuated. Over the next<br>months the emphasis, as lockdowns began,<br>was on providing hot meals and medication<br>for slum elders and children who were part<br>of our programmes. Throughout the year at<br>least 150 hot meals were prepared and<br>distributed daily. We also ensured that clean<br>drinking water was available.<br>Our work with the paediatric oncology unit in<br>a Madurai hospital included providing daily<br>food parcels for children and families under<br>our care. We also provided water coolers<br>and arranged for daily water deliveries. We<br>provided the whole unit with PPI and hand<br>sanitisers, oximeters, thermometers and<br>additional soap and cleaning agents. This<br>continued throughout the pandemic. Our<br>ambulances were also permitted to continue<br>to transport children to and from the hospital<br>as required.<br>Funding for some of this additional work was<br>provided by short-term leasing our now<br>vacant care home to another charity.<br>We continued our monthly food deliveries to<br>the families we support in a leprosy colony.<br>Our staff were magnificent throughout and<br>we ensured their safety with appropriate PPI<br>and variation in working patterns. All staff<br>were encouraged to be vaccinated.<br>By the end of 2020 the pandemic had<br>reached a peak, regular communication with<br>the trustees continued on a daily basis.|





In spite of the pandemic our plans for Mavelikara continued slowly, thanks to Zoom and WhatsApp, with the appointment of a new Advocate and Auditor. Investigations for possible projects in the centre continued, with talks at an advanced stage with a Skills Development Project. As we approach 2021, with trustee visits to India prohibited, we rely on our committed staff to safely help us all through the pandemic, always ensuring that those we serve are provided with food, medication and support. We pray that 2021 will see a return to a level of normality.

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities 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** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention 

- **examiner's statement** 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: 

      - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and 

      - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 

      - have not been met; or 

   2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
