Reference and administrative details
The Tutu Foundation (UK) is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales number 05074544 and is a UK registered charity, number 1116030.
Mission, Objectives and Vision
The Tutu Foundation (UK) builds peace in fractured communities experiencing tension or division in the UK, using a model inspired by Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s peace and reconciliation work all over the world. To tackle the anti-social behavior, gang activity, growing extremism and violence in our communities and to build a lasting peace; underlying attitudes and behaviours must first be addressed. The Tutu Foundation (UK) helps communities in, or at risk of, conflict come together to develop a common point of view of what is wrong and how to make it better.
The underpinning values of The Tutu Foundation (UK) come from the South African concept of Ubuntu. Described by Archbishop Tutu as “one of the gifts Africa can give the world”, Ubuntu shows how we can only be fully human when we value and appreciate one another, recognising that what we have in common is far greater than the differences between us. Our vision is for relationships, communities and policies based upon mutual respect and an appreciation of our interdependence – in short, a reflection of Ubuntu which builds peace in UK communities.
Aims
Our aims are to build peace in fractured communities by: -
-
throwing light on particular problems and influencing powerful actors to bring about change;
-
promoting Ubuntu as a way of living together;
-
enabling campaigns for people’s rights and responsibilities;
-
promoting peace in fractured communities;
-
championing ethical and sustainable use of the planet’s resources;
-
acting as a vehicle for the development of the Tutu legacy;
-
promoting education through the development of an Ubuntu based curriculum; and
-
developing youth leaders to practice and promote the legacy of Archbishop Desmond and Mrs. Leah Tutu.
Activities in 2022/23
As a social justice charity, our vision and purpose must respond to the needs of all the communities that we serve and work within. We have also sought to refine and deliver work which responds to the changing needs of communities and people who are living with tension, conflict and violence. We recognise the great economic challenges that are affecting many communities across the UK. These challenges, together with rising tension, conflict and intolerance are continuing to test the resilience of the nation.

Funding
We thank the many individuals who have given generous donations that have provided stability to continue our vital work.
Financial Review
During the year we raised funds from the general public and fundraising events. The funds were expended on delivering the programmes referred to in this report.
Structure, Governance and Management governing document
The Foundation is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales, and is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. Its governing document is the Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 16[th] March 2004. Its trustees (who are directors of The Foundation) are appointed by its members; although at present the trustees and the members are the same individuals. The Articles of Association provide that one third of the trustees must retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting each year. Those retiring by rotation are eligible for re-election.
Any trustee may be removed by the members for any reason and will also cease to be a trustee in certain circumstance specified in the Articles of Association, for example, if he or she becomes disqualified by law from acting as a charity trustee.

Organisation
The trustees are responsible for the general management and oversight of all the activities of the Foundation. The trustees appoint a Chairman of the trustees, the Treasurer and the Company Secretary. No other officers have been appointed.
Risk Management
The trustees have assumed responsibility for identifying the types of risk faced by the Foundation in pursuing its charitable objectives. They have worked with the previous trustees in designing procedures to monitor and mitigate these risks and have ensured that volunteers are fully aware of the procedures and of the implications of failing to implement them. They are satisfied that these controls comply in all material respects with guidelines issued by the Charity Commission.
The Foundation maintains a risk register and risk is reported and reviewed by the trustees. The Risk Register is formally tabled at two meetings a year.
Reserves Policy
A reserves policy is in place reflecting the trustees’ commitment to having adequate reserves to maintain solvency.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the end of that year and of the surplus or deficit for the year then ended.
In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to select suitable accounting policies and then apply them on a consistent basis, making judgments and estimates that are prudent and reasonable. The trustees must also prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue its operations.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which 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 Companies Act 2006. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006.

Independent Examiner’s Report on the Accounts
Report to the trustees of The Tutu Foundation (UK) Limited on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages 7 to 11.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities 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 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 examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention 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
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

-
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 examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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.

Reference and administrative details
The Tutu Foundation (UK) is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales number 05074544 and is a UK registered charity, number 1116030.
Mission, Objectives and Vision
The Tutu Foundation (UK) builds peace in fractured communities experiencing tension or division in the UK, using a model inspired by Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s peace and reconciliation work all over the world. To tackle the anti-social behavior, gang activity, growing extremism and violence in our communities and to build a lasting peace; underlying attitudes and behaviours must first be addressed. The Tutu Foundation (UK) helps communities in, or at risk of, conflict come together to develop a common point of view of what is wrong and how to make it better.
The underpinning values of The Tutu Foundation (UK) come from the South African concept of Ubuntu. Described by Archbishop Tutu as “one of the gifts Africa can give the world”, Ubuntu shows how we can only be fully human when we value and appreciate one another, recognising that what we have in common is far greater than the differences between us. Our vision is for relationships, communities and policies based upon mutual respect and an appreciation of our interdependence – in short, a reflection of Ubuntu which builds peace in UK communities.
Aims
Our aims are to build peace in fractured communities by: -
-
throwing light on particular problems and influencing powerful actors to bring about change;
-
promoting Ubuntu as a way of living together;
-
enabling campaigns for people’s rights and responsibilities;
-
promoting peace in fractured communities;
-
championing ethical and sustainable use of the planet’s resources;
-
acting as a vehicle for the development of the Tutu legacy;
-
promoting education through the development of an Ubuntu based curriculum; and
-
developing youth leaders to practice and promote the legacy of Archbishop Desmond and Mrs. Leah Tutu.
Activities in 2022/23
As a social justice charity, our vision and purpose must respond to the needs of all the communities that we serve and work within. We have also sought to refine and deliver work which responds to the changing needs of communities and people who are living with tension, conflict and violence. We recognise the great economic challenges that are affecting many communities across the UK. These challenges, together with rising tension, conflict and intolerance are continuing to test the resilience of the nation.

Activities in 2022/23 (continued)
We celebrated the life of the late archbishop Desmond Tutu at a reception held at London’s Guildhall on 1 June and later, at the Service of Evensong in Westminster Abeey on 9 June 2022.
The twelfth annual Desmond Tutu International Peace Lecture took place of Friday 9 October 2022.
The annual UK Peace Lecture took place on 24 March 2022 at Marlborough House, London. The peace lecture was presented by The Rt Hon Sir John Major KG CH, in partnership with Brand South Africa, with the kind permission of the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, The Rt Hon Patricia Scotland QC introduced the evening.
Funding
We thank the many individuals who have given generous donations that have provided stability to continue our vital work.
Financial Review
During the year we raised funds from the general public and fundraising events. The funds were expended on delivering the programmes referred to in this report.
Structure, Governance and Management governing document
The Foundation is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales, and is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. Its governing document is the Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 16[th] March 2004. Its trustees (who are directors of The Foundation) are appointed by its members; although at present the trustees and the members are the same individuals. The Articles of Association provide that one third of the trustees must retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting each year. Those retiring by rotation are eligible for re-election.
Any trustee may be removed by the members for any reason and will also cease to be a trustee in certain circumstance specified in the Articles of Association, for example, if he or she becomes disqualified by law from acting as a charity trustee.

Organisation
The trustees are responsible for the general management and oversight of all the activities of the Foundation. The trustees appoint a Chairman of the trustees, the Treasurer and the Company Secretary. No other officers have been appointed.
Risk Management
The trustees have assumed responsibility for identifying the types of risk faced by the Foundation in pursuing its charitable objectives. They have worked with the previous trustees in designing procedures to monitor and mitigate these risks and have ensured that volunteers are fully aware of the procedures and of the implications of failing to implement them. They are satisfied that these controls comply in all material respects with guidelines issued by the Charity Commission.
The Foundation maintains a risk register and risk is reported and reviewed by the trustees. The Risk Register is formally tabled at two meetings a year.
Reserves Policy
A reserves policy is in place reflecting the trustees’ commitment to having adequate reserves to maintain solvency.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the end of that year and of the surplus or deficit for the year then ended.
In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to select suitable accounting policies and then apply them on a consistent basis, making judgments and estimates that are prudent and reasonable. The trustees must also prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue its operations.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which 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 Companies Act 2006. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006.

Independent Examiner’s Report on the Accounts
Report to the trustees of The Tutu Foundation (UK) Limited on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages 7 to 11.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities 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 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 examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention 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
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
