The accounts comply with the Charity’s governing document and applicable law. ## Objectives of the charity The charity’s objectives, as set out in its governing document, are; 1 The relief of sickness among persons in such need, in third world countries by the provision of medical teams and equipment, to carry out life enhancing reconstructive surgery, particularly but not exclusively for children requiring cleft lip and palate surgery in Asia; 2 To advance the teaching and training of local healthcare professionals, in the field of surgery, anaesthesia and pre-operative practice in general; 3 For the acquisition of basic general medical, surgical and anaesthetic equipment necessary for the above functions. ## Activity and performance 2 surgical camps were undertaken in 2024 in February & October. The multi-disciplinary team visited, consisting of consultant plastic and cleft and ENT surgeons, plastic surgery trainees, consultant anaesthetist, consultant orthodontist, speech and language therapist, senior audiologist, as well as theatre practitioners. The October camp was facilitated with the support of the Emirates Airline Foundation, which supported air travel for all professionally registered team members. The Knightsbridge Private Hospital in Northern Ireland donated all medical and surgical consumables for the October camp, to the value of £4 - £5K, thanks to Kellie Curran (R.N. and surgical team member) and Dr Chris Hill (Cleft Surgeon), who both work for the organisation. This is of huge benefit to the UK team, and the Cleft Hospital, as it reduces its liability. Full accounts of the 2 main events (February and October) can be found via the links below, which give detailed accounts of the surgical activities. Feb 2024 Report https://1drv.ms/b/s!AjXLpNFkIkP--GU9wqM1|IngZ003c?e=ExHjLU October 2024 Report https://1drv.ms/b/s!AiXLpNFkIkP--INdpn7opp EfhGY?e=65Uciw - ## Trustees: It was with great sadness that we had to say farewell, in practical terms to one of our long-term consultant anaesthetists, Dr Shahid Tariq. He made a decision that, partially because of health issues, he needed to step down from his clinical input to the charity. This is a huge loss to us, and we were very sad to see him leave. He continues to support OPSA with his annual sponsored walk. Funds raised from this event continue to be donated to the charity. No further trustees have been invited to join the board during this year, although Registered Nurse Gill Raven (a surgical team member on a number of occasions) has been active in supporting the charity in respect of helping to organize the camps. There are no paid members of the team for any administrative duties, so this is of significant help. ## OVERSEAS PLASTIC SURGERY APPEAL ## TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 ## Fundraising: There have been no main of significant fund-raising events during 2024. OPSA’s chairman Mr Nick Hart passed away in March so there was no appetite for it. It was a huge loss to the charity that Mr Hart was no longer with us. He had served as a board member, chariman and led Cleft Surgeon over the previous 25 year, and is still hugely missed by all. During the camps there were several fund-raising events for PCLAPA (Pakistan Cleft Lip & Palate Association) which were directly involved in raising awareness of cleft conditions and the Cleft Hospital facility. The team were involved in these events, to support our host in his endeavours, Dr Ijaz Bashir. ## Financial Review At the year-end, we held bank and cash balances of £148,311 all of which is unrestricted funds. These funds are held for the sole purpose of allowing us to continue our work, to consistently support future medical/surgical trips. We expect to continue to maintain a minimum balance of £60,000 in monetary reserves to ensure that at least 2 future trips’ expenses are covered to the same standard as previously, with or without the support of the Emirates Foundation. During the October camp it became clear that the Sterile Services Department was still in need of a complete upgrade to be able to continue to be operational. (As highlighted in the previous report, money had previously been allocated for this project but as a result of the impact of Covid, those funds had to be spent elsewhere within the hospital). After much discussion it was agreed in principle that OPSA, MIAT (Midland International Aid Trust), and PCLAPA (Pakistan Cleft Lip & Palate Association) would try to support this once again, as a collaborative arrangement. Dr Ijaz was tasked with acquiring quotes for the work to be done. It was scheduled to startin 2025. We (OPSA) have been able to help to support this project financially on the basis that the Emirates Foundation is presently supporting the cost of flights for the team. We (OPSA) are wholly reliant for funding on donations and money raised from fund-raising events. As in all previous reports, all trustees give of their time free of charge. No trustees receive any remuneration for their contributions, including the surgical team. ## Public benefit The Trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission published Guidance on the Operation of the Public Benefit Requirement and believe that the provision of the recreational facilities of the club as stated in the objectives of the charity, meet the requirements. Following on from last year’s report, there was no requirement to formally amend the Objectives, as orinally expected. The current objectives are fully compliant with the charity’s work. ## Website We invite all interested parties to visit our website at www.opsacharity.com where there is further information about the work undertaken by the charity. Legal and administrative information forms part of this report. The accounts comply with the Charity’s governing document and applicable law.
