Kivuli Trust (Kivuli meaning shelter in Swahili) builds and operates hostels on the premises of mainstream schools in Kenya, East Africa, for children with physical and mental disabilities. It is estimated that less than 1 % of the 3 million people in Kenya living with mental disabilities, receive an education. The Trust's aim is help these 'forgotten' children to re1ve specialist education and support within a regular school environment.

Section D Achievements and performance Summary ofthe maln achlevements of the charlty durlng the year This year Kivuli Trust raised £Jf9,122 through fundraising initiatives to help fund the 8nnual operation of the 2 hostels, The 2 hostels provide safe, secure accommodation for 68 vulnerable children, enabling them to learn essential life skills and to attend the Gilgil Special School, These children receive an education and a chance in life. Rather than being hidden away and abused, they become accepled by their families afftl the wider community. The positive and sustainable impact this has on attitudes to disability is profound. This flagship project remains a 'Centre of Excellence, (as declared by the Kenyan Government), and an example of how disabled children, given the right support, can be given a worthwhile educalion. During the year, we paid the salaries of the 16 staff employed at the hostels - manager, assistant manager, accountant, carers, cooks, security guards and groundsmen. The hostels accommodated the more vulnerable children, providing them with full pastoral care, clean water and three meals a day. However, the kitchen also provided hot, nutritious lunches for all the day children from the Gilgil Special Sch(x)I, as well as the boarders- a total of c.100 children. Throughout the year we ran a physiotherapy programme. Peter, our physiotherapist, spent 5 days a week with more than 10 of the children who have physical disabilities requiring exercise and treatment. It is exlIent to see the physical progress the children are making. The Kivuli Hostels CBO is the entity responsible for receiving funds from Kivuli Trust (UK) and distributing them (paying staff, paying costs, arranging renovation works etc.) It was the second full year of operation, with a structured AGM taking place in February 2025. Rhoda Otieno retired from the Gilgil Special School during the year and was employed by the CBO as General Manager. The highlight of the year was a young child, called Faith, who was invited to state house on Mazingira (Environment) Day to meet the First Lady after writing a pM about the environment. Aside from the usual repairs and maintenance works, the capex projects undertaken during the year include a new concrete walkway from the girls dorm to the dining room, to facilitate ease of movement for children in wheelchairs and the partitioning of a new Offi for the General Manager & Assistant Manager within the girls hostel.
