• policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees;

• the charity’s organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works;

• relationship with any related parties;

• trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them.

RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY

Because the Charity is working with children there is a risk of unacceptable behaviour from the trustees or volunteers who visit Tanzania or of the students in the schools in Tanzania. The Charity has safeguarding policies in place to minimise the chance of this occurring.

There is the risk of money sent to Tanzania being inappropriately used. To mitigate this risk one of the trustees, or another suitable representative of the charity, visits Arusha each year and is able to verify how the donations are being used. This is mainly through meeting many of the different beneficiaries and also receiving letters from students whose fees are being paid, partially or totally, by the Project. Fifty Six students in four schools are currently being supported by the Project. The visitors also go to schools where the donations have helped to build classrooms and a science laboratory.

Our prime contact in Tanzania is a senior priest in the Arusha Archdiocese whom we have known for many years and whom also sends written confirmation that the money has been received and what it will be spent on. Money transfers are bank to bank and written confirmation of payment is received from the bank. All money transfers have to be authorised by two Trustees.

In order to further minimise any risk Project Arusha has insurance through the Nottingham Diocesan public, employers and trustees liability policies through the Catholic Church Insurance Association.
