SORP
reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document		 Para 1.17 The charity’s objectives are to relieve
sickness and protect and preserve good
health by providing clean, safe and cost-free
accommodation to children (and their
accompanying parents), in particular but not
exclusively in children under the age of 15
from the most disadvantaged backgrounds
who are suffering from chronic diseases
such as cancer across India.
Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.		 Para 1.17
and 1.19		 SJICC UK’s primary aim is to raise funds in
the UK to fund grant applications from
charities in India that provide free, safe, and
secure residential accommodation.
SJICC UK has the necessary authorisation
to remit funds to India directly with a
minimum of administration and cost.
To date, SJICC UK has concentrated on
funding residential centres run by the Indian
charity, St Jude Child Care Centres,
because:
The trustees can immediately see the
impact of the donations
The Indian charity fully meets the criteria of
our objectives
The UK trustees have since inception been
able to carry out repeated visits to assess
the managerial competence and integrity of
the charity
The UK trustees receive regular and
detailed reports of all the activities in India
and have available to them information to
ensure that all monies are put to good use
in India. Reassurance is received from
continuous due diligence by third parties,
such as CRISIL, the Indian ratings agency,
that the Indian charity meets and surpasses
levels of service and compliance.

whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit		 Para 1.18 All Trustees give their time freely and with
no remuneration. In setting our objectives
and planning our activities the Trustees
have given careful consideration to the

Financial Review

Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period		 Para 1.21 The financial statements show that the total
income for the organization increased to
£325,135 for the fiscal year ending March
2023 compared to £181,162 for year ending
March 2022). The increase in funding was
due the biannual gala event. Expenditure on
Charitable Activities was 392,236 for the
year ending March 2023 (£299,711 for year
end March 2022). This increase in spending
is attributable to grant funding in India which
was contingent upon the charities
establishing a FCRA bank account.

flows and the commitments of the Charity to
