Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17		The Charity is motivated by the Christian faith to promote human development and social justice in underdeveloped countries by working with charities, aid workers and indigenous people in these countries so that it can : 1] Promote sustainable development for the benefit of the local people by the relief of poverty and the improvements of conditions of life in socially and disadvantaged communities. 2] Develop the capacity and skills of the of the socially and economically disadvantaged communities in the Developing World in such a way that they are able to identify and help meet their needs and to participate more fully in society, 3] Relieve financial hardship, either generally or individually, of people living in the Developing World by making grants of money, for providing or paying for items, services and facilities.
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		1]FEED MY LAMB COMMUNITY SCHOOL IN UGANDA The school continues to cater for 140 vulnerable children, many of them were street children brought to Gweri in the district of Kabarole from the Nuguru slum in Kampala six years ago. The remainder are from local child-headed families who would otherwise not receive any education. The staffing of the school comprises of 7

fully qualified teachers who specialise in particular aspects of the curriculum whilst some of them also have whole school responsibilities. There are also 2 Teaching Assistants to support the children’s learning. The School Board includes a wide range of people from the local community who support the school; the School Administrator, Head Teacher, and one other teacher. We continue to provide accomodation in two hostels for the remaining street children from Kampala, those who have no Guardians, and, at times, for those at risk from abuse in the local community. Claire Dorcus , Founder and Administrator, arranges Guardian support for the local orphan children. We provide food for the whole school community. We provide medical insurance so the children and staff can be safe in the knowledge that they will receive free care when they need it. Other items we provide include teacher salaries, learning materials, examination fees clothing and toiletries. We have continued to provide some funding for the development of the arable, animal and fish farming and the hairdressing and tailoring projects which provide food, education and employment for pupils who have left the school and the local community. This year they have become more self-sufficient and used the profits from these ventures to create further developments. 2] Support for Trafficked Adults and Children in Albania

We continue to support the work of the Mary Ward Loreto Foundation [MWL] run by Sr Imelda. Their core mission is the eradication of human trafficking across Alabania, with specific emphasis on thwarting cases bound for the UK. MWL operates as a non-profit organization, dedicated to combatting this grave issue through a comprehensive three - fold approach encompassing advocacy, prevention, and support for potential victims and victims of trafficking.

3] Support forTrafficked Women and Children in Romania

We have continued to support the work of Fr

		Petru and Sr Kathleen which again has included help for a few Ukranian refugees. Help has also been needed for gas and electricity bills as prices have rocketed this year.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	In Uganda the main achievements in 2023 can be seen in the excellent examination results by the children in P7. Fourteen of the twenty pupils gained scholarships to Secondary schools. The only cost was to cover bedding, towels, soap and books. This is the first time this has happened and is due to the high regard in which the school is now held. Moderators who came to the school praised the teaching and education received by the pupils. The school is now registered as an examination centre so all results will be published in their name. As in previous years, the health insurance policy has supported many of the children. We were also able to pay for the Administrator’s hospital bills when she had a serious, but curable, health problem. thus ensuring the smooth running of the school. With our support the school has developed very detailed Safeguarding and Protection policies. A large shipment of books, shoes, clothes, sportswear and equipment was sent in September. This is cost effective as those items in Uganda are either expensive or of very poor quality. We are pleased to see that Feed My Lamb Kabarole Community School is becoming more self-sufficient. They are supporting their own projects and making a profit. These include extending their banana plantation and other vegetable production; increasing the sale of milk and eggs and the profits from the tailoring department. The Administrator, Dorcus Kobugabe, also charges for counselling members of the local community The Administrator has written a Business Plan which highlights their needs and plans for the next five years. Our continued support gives them the confidence to plan ahead practically when they can. In Albania, this year, we have supported the Mary Loreto Foundation in their development

of a new NGO in the UK which is supporting the mission in Albania as many of those trafficked in Albania are brought to Britain. They have also developed a comprehensive approach to capacity building which has not only enhanced the skills and professionalism of the implementing organisation but also equipped staff members to navigate complex situations, maintain ethical standards, and deliver impactful support. The combination of supervision, training, strategical planning, and fostering an organizational culture that aligns with the project’s values has empowered the organization to thrive in its mission to combat human trafficking and exploitation. In Rumania Fr Petru and Sr Kathleen continue to support some Ukranian refugees and single parents with housing and the costs of fuel which have increased greatly.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period	Para 1.21	We continue to support our three projects albeit with a reduced amount to Uganda due to some reduction in our trust funding, and have also been able to hold some reserve funds for 2024.
Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held	ewePara 1.22	The Charity aims to maintain a small working reserve to ensure the Charity account does not fall into deficit. The Charity produces regular financial plans. The Charity aims to avoid building up large reserves. Wherever possible funding will be allocated to projects for planned or immediate donations. However due to some reduction in Trust Funding, we felt keeping larger reserves was appropriate at this time.
Amount of reserves held	Para 1.22	£16232

A description of the principal risks facing the charity	Para 1.46	The Charity Trustees have given consideration to the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and satisfied themselves that systems or procedures are established in order to manage those risks. 1] The risk of third party claim for loss arising from one of the Charities fundraising events. The Charity transfers this risk by purchasing Public Liability Insurance annually to protect itself from potential financial liability. Any event will be held in line with Government Charity Commission guide lines. 2] The risk of reduced governance due to

health concerns and other restrictions in Uganda. This means that it has not been possible to conduct a Feed My Lamb monitoring inspection in 2023. The Charity accepts the risk arising from the inability to perform on-site inspections and recognises that this element of risk increases year on year while inspections are not possible. However, close contact with the Administrator and regular reports throughout the year are maintained. 3] The risk of failing to reach a quorum for scheduled meetings. As the Charity operates with a small management team, there may be times when the Group are unable to achieve a quorum for a scheduled governance meeting. If this were to occur, the available Trustees would decide whether to proceed or defer the meeting depending on the urgency of the scheduled business. All meetings and decisions are minuted to ensure transparency. Other
