REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

FOR THE 18 MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

The Directors have pleasure in submitting the Report and Accounts for the eighteen months ended 30 June 2021.

Objects of the charity

The objects of the charity are:

  1. The promotion of the Christian faith through the enabling of Christian discipleship and evangelism; and

  2. The practical and effective relief of poverty and suffering, particularly but not exclusively in Africa.

Review of Activities

Our work is focused on sharing and promoting the good news of Jesus through local community and by doing so to target effective relief of poverty in all its forms, predominantly in rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa. Through this we are seeing people and communities working together to bring relief from poverty of mind, spirit, health, community and economy.

We do this through the formation of Life Groups, weekly gatherings of 5-30 people from different backgrounds, different churches, or no church. Anyone and everyone are welcome to join to learn how to pray, read the Bible, love others, share the message of Jesus, love the poor and work together for the benefit of whole communities. Life Groups bring people to Jesus and teach a new way of living, they build unity and transform communities holistically; bringing life in all its fullness. They allow everyday people to become beacons of hope in their community.

Life Groups have cared for the elderly, given young people a sense of purpose, provided for the poorest, accessed government schemes to benefit the whole village, welcomed the overlooked, supported those who are HIV positive, brought down crime rates, educated people about staying safe during the time of COVID, repaired rooves, roads and bridges, and brought many people to Jesus.

As we closed out 2019, we affirmed that we would:

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE 18 MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

In 2019 we wrote an aspirational 10-year vision to 2029 that imagined: “half a million Life Groups releasing the God-given potential of millions of people to pioneer and work together. Countless people would be set free from poverty of mind, body and spirit. Nations would be transformed. This Kingdom movement could not be ignored. Its impact would be seen on a national level and beyond.”

As 2020 unfolded and COVID-19 challenged us all, we responded directly in these ways:

Immediate response: COVID-19 emphasised the need to work using more agile methods. Immediately we encouraged team members to work locally. In turn they were to enable new team members in areas they could not easily reach. This expanded the capacity of the teams. We fast tracked work around our materials; creating, translating and distributing easy to understand information sheets regarding COVID-19 and how we can continue to love those around us safely in this season. We received very positive feedback from Life Groups who used the materials. They expressed gratitude for our ongoing relationship. They were reassured by receiving information in their own language and encouraged to hear stories of groups loving people and even new Life Groups starting. In addition, other local organisations including a health clinic asked to use and share the information sheets we had created as there were very few resources available.

Mid-term response: We began sending Life , a one-page bulletin to each group on a monthly basis. We now translate this into 5 different languages every month and distribute by WhatsApp, bus and bike. We are working behind the scenes to streamline this process using digital technologies to reduce workload on team members where possible. This regular touch point with Life Group leaders increases community and connection in very uncertain times.

In addition to these very specific responses, we worked to maintain and build on the core aspects of our work:

The pressures of COVID restrictions served to highlight the importance of the value and need of everyone being active in loving and serving their communities, in the place where God had put them. They threw into focus the need for us to:

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (Continued)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Continue enabling those with the ‘least’ to plant Life Groups:

Throughout 2019 Dignity representatives worked across the full width of the continent helping people to plant Life Groups. We had established relationships and provided training, encouragement and materials. In the 18 months ended June 2021, we have continued to invest in these relationships and champion those who are responding to God’s call in their communities. Whilst return visits became difficult due to travel restrictions, we have focused on ways in which we could remotely nurture the seeds that had been sown. In addition, we continue to invest in the ongoing relationships we have developed over years in Zambia. As it became clear that we would have to do this differently in 2020, we prioritised the production and translation of Village Journey . This picked up the training originally intended for the Residency course and packaged it as a self-guided study course.

Despite the ongoing challenges in the last 6 months, we have continued to take fresh approaches and have created opportunities to meet up with those on the peripheries of existing Life Groups and follow up on new connections and invitations. Local team members have done the same within their areas. We have encouraged, and been encouraged, by those we have spent time with. Repeatedly, we have heard how Life Groups have multiplied, loved those around them and found ways to support others.

Convince and Teach Others to Plant Groups:

In 2019, our plans to develop a Residency aimed to decouple the growth of Life Groups from the physical ability of Dignity to visit an area. The transition to a self-guided study course accelerated this aim and since it launched in October 2020, 54 people enrolled to study Village Journey by June 2021.

We have been hugely encouraged by the early results: we are seeing Life Groups spring up in numerous places, including the south of the DRC and the northwest of Tanzania – two areas not yet visited by a Dignity representative. Although originally written for individual study, we have found that people have adopted Journey as a tool to teach friends and have been running informal ‘Journey schools’ where they meet and go through the book together. People are understanding how and why they can do something to tell others about Jesus, and to show the love and power of Jesus in the communities and villages where they live – and beyond.

Already available in English and Swahili, plans for the coming year include translating Village Journey into Bemba, Chewa, Lunda and Tonga.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (Continued)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Influence the work of others:

We have shared the concepts, models and tools we have developed, encouraged others to adapt Life Groups to their own settings with the hope of being a catalyst to Life Group movements in wide and diverse areas.

We believe that Life Groups are a simple and powerful tool that bring benefit to whole communities. By sharing the ideas behind them we hope catalyse Life Group movements in a wide and diverse area. We have seen Beatrice start Life Groups in the communities around Nairobi from which many children leave to find a new life in the city, before becoming street children. Beatrice hopes to help the communities she has been serving for years stem the tide of children leaving in the first place. We continue to partner with Trinity Chapel Mombasa to help facilitate the work of a volunteer to plant Life Groups in and around Mombasa.

In the coming year, this is an area where we will look to invest more time and resources as we believe that, together with others, we can help the Life Group methodology travel further. We have identified a new role within our team ‘Partnership Pioneer’ and looking forward expect to have someone in post by October 2021.

By June 2021:

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Project Grants:

In the 18-months covered by this report, we made grants of £18,977 (£23,774 2019 – 12-month) to Dignity Zambia Ltd to support the project work managed by them. In addition, we continue to fund significant amounts of project work directly from the UK including the costs of project leadership.

In order to ensure that the funds are being appropriately applied to achieve the objects of Dignity (Worldwide) Ltd, we receive regular reports on the work done in Zambia (and surrounding areas), the number of Life Groups in operation and a full break down of the financial transactions of Dignity Zambia. One of our directors and trustees, Jon Witt, is also a member of the Dignity Zambia board.

Looking ahead:

As the end of this reporting period drew close, we were setting plans for the coming years. Dignity exists to bring people to Jesus through local community and by doing so to relieve poverty in all its forms. This includes poverty of spirit, health, community, economy and environment.

To achieve our aspirational 10-year vision to 2029 that imagined half a million Life Groups, we know that we will need to work with others. We will support existing Life Groups to continually plant and support new groups and through them, bring transformation in the wider community. We will partner with and influence the wider body of churches, organisations and individuals. With them we will seek to empower individuals and communities to adopt and adapt the model of Life Groups to achieve identical aims.

Our desire is to harness the potential of people and the Church in pursuit of the mission that God has given us to do together. We have identified the following steps to guide us as we move forward:

Stories from Life Groups

The stories of Life Groups continue to show us that people working together can be a powerful force for good in their communities. We see time and time again that as Life Groups form, people begin to grow in their faith in Jesus and work together to fight poverty in its many forms. Throughout 2020 we will push forward with our program of translations and digital pioneering to make materials available to as many people as possible in their first or heart language.

Esther’s story

Esther* had grown up going to church, but she had never had the opportunity to pray out loud and felt that she did not know how to. One day in church she was asked to pray. Embarrassed because she did not know what to say, she quietly left the church and never went back, too ashamed to return. A while later, Esther joined a Life Group near her home.

Andrew’s story

Andrew lives in Kamboshe, a small town off the main north-south road that cuts through the heart of Zambia.

Andrew now works together with his friends to plant Life Groups in their area. They say, “As we have leant to forgive, work with others and act with love, it’s like the love has caught on wider! Nowadays people are much more willing to learn from one another and listen to each other. We are seeing change across our community!"

Tiwonge’s story

Tiwonge* lives in Petauke, Zambia, where traditional dancing for chiefs and the men of the community is common. For an outsider if it looks overtly sexual, that’s because it sometimes is. The young girls who participate in the dancing often have no say in what happens afterwards.

No one told Tiwonge to help these girls take a stand, but thanks to their involvement in a small community of people who are making a stand for Jesus, they have been empowered to make a choice. What is happening is the natural outworking of the knowledge and relationship that Tiwonge has with Jesus. With knowledge, faith and a little bit of community boldness, wonders can happen!

Public Benefit

Based upon the activities mentioned above the Directors confirm that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Commission in exercising their powers or duties

Related Parties

Transactions with related parties are set out in note 5 to the accounts.

Financial Review

During the 18-month period ended 30 June 2021, income totaled £172,121 (£127,423 – 2019) from a combination of gifts, donations and fundraising activities. Expenditure in the period, which is detailed in the Statement of Financial Activities totaled £133,098 (£113,783 – 2019).

Reserves Policy

Dignity is a charitable company established in response to a calling from God and as such the board believes that God will be faithful in providing the resources required to fulfill that calling.

The board of Directors review Dignity’s reserves policy annually. The purpose of the reserves policy is to smooth out any short-term variations in funding and expenditure to ensure that the charity is able to fulfil its objectives without interruption.

The work of Dignity is project driven with peaks of expenditure corresponding with overseas mission activity. As such the board recognises that the level of general reserves will vary as Dignity builds the funds to undertake this work.

Under normal circumstances the board considers it appropriate to hold reserves of between 2 to 5 months of typical monthly expenditure. Reserves held were within policy levels throughout the period reported on.

Governance

A board of Directors who are also the trustees of the Charity governs the Company. Appointment of new directors/trustees is a matter for the whole board. The board would give due consideration to the induction required for any new directors or trustees.

The board meets formally at least four times per year.

I report on the accounts of the charity for the period ended 30 June 2021 which are set out on pages 15 to 20.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for the year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you as 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.
