REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective I January 2019).

On behalf of the Trustees in Zambia we would like to report on Umoya Trust activities in Zambia since the pandemic until present. The report will look at the Nursing homes achievements, challenges and plans, recruitment for UK - Certificate of Sponsorship (COS), Matero After Care, farming, Prayer Mountains and then make a conclusion whilst highlighting some of the expenses that we might have incurred during the process.

Objectives and Activities

The main objects of the charity set out in the governing document are;

Activities undertaken to achieve objectives

Main achievements of the charity

We have been able to assist socially excluded people in Kent, Wilshire and Africa, particularly in Zambia and South Africa, by providing advocacy, food and support, as well as employment skills. Most of our volunteers are expert by experience who may have been clients and are vulnerable within our community. We have managed to provide care and support and we have provided a place where they can be part of a team and start to learn new skills and develop socially.

The Trust managed to sponsor 8 volunteers from Uganda, South Africa and Zambia who have been part of the capacity building in the vision we have of opening more project in Africa.

Furthermore, some volunteers have been able to be employed on the skilled workers visa in the UK. This provided us with sustainable work force that has stabilised our Connect and Care Project, both in Kent and Wiltshire.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Our homeless project has tried to help and support those living on the streets alongside other organisation working among them. In Africa we have been able to help several orphans by paying their school fees, rent and supplying much needed food. We have encouraged them to finish their education and hope to continue to support them as they go to college. We have now managed to complete the construction of the Nursing Home in Zambia, and we managed to run it as a pilot project this year. In the project we had housed 6 old vulnerable people and employed 8 volunteers. The project was successful and amongst the finding is that the concept of volunteering is foreign and there is nothing for free at least in Zambia. This has helped us to redesign the project and ensure that we are meeting our object. We will be registering with the ministry of health in Zambia.

Zambia Nuning Home- Costs and updates

Connect and Care Nursing Home is operated by Umoya Trust (Zam) providing world class Nursing Home Care and Rehabilitation Services and is named after our passion to connect and care for elderly individuals and those who are vulnerable due to various issues. The site will have many buildings and activities. However, the current and first building is named after our late director and architect (Chisha Musonda) who designed and encouraged the project to be moved from Livingstone to Lusaka as a strategic management. We are planning to start the Robinsons Chapel, Maggie Mpundu House, GF residential home, Astride’s Corner (all these buildings are named after people who have shaped the project and details will appear on the wall of fame).

The project was established to provide the vulnerable elderly (65+) and adults (18 +) with physical and learning disabilities, a range of nursing services that meet their needs and offer them choice. Our aim is to respond to individual requests for services and deliver them in a manner that respects the wishes and feelings of the Service User and upholds his or her rights and dignity. Our objective is to provide a range of services, thereby offering the Service User, communities, and family greater freedom of choice. Service User needs will be matched with corresponding and appropriate staff and resources. It all begins with connecting. Using Outreach Programmes, including our work with the local government, social workers, faith groups, NGOs, Chainama, Government and private hospitals, chiefs, families, a connection is made, trust is built and that connection leads to the provision of a Personalised Care Plan compatible with individual needs.

The aims and objectives of the organisation are as follows:

People and the services we provide

We provide Nursing Care services to vulnerable (65+) and adults with Physical and Mental Rehabilitation services, and Personal Care services each of which is a regulated activity.

We provide safe, Service User focused, 24 hour, seven days’ a week services. We facilitate semi-independence for vulnerable or at-risk elderly (65+) and adults with physical and learning disabilities leaving hospitals; this is achieved by

supporting them within our project with intensified rehabilitation program with the aim to move them if possible, to a more independent living including their own home or families.

Our registration with the Ministry of Community Development and Welfare enables us to provide certain care under the following regulated activities as defined in the NGO Act, 2009 as (Amendment No.13 of 2020). Currently we have applied with the Ministry of Health for Rehabilitation Services will which enable us to provide world class services that meets the needs of our clients holistically.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

FINANCIAL REVIEW

a. Going concern

Going concern after making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.

b. Reserves policy

We are growing as an organisation and have now taken up the responsibility of employing people and expanding our activities and therefore we aim to maintain reserve of £5,000 as part of our income to meet any unforeseen circumstances and to make sure that we have enough money to pay staff when our income is delayed. This will be reflected in our financial Reserve Policy. We are also aiming to have an overdraft arrangement with the bank to ensure that we have access to money in the case of invoice delayed staff and bills will not be affected.

Structure, governance and management

c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies

The other members of the trustee body are responsible for the financial management of the charity whilst others are able to confirm and authorise any payment above the agreed amount. Cheques are signed by 2 unrelated people that the Trustees have put forward to the bank. Statement of Trustees' responsibilities The Trustees (who are also the directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year.

Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Umoya Trost (Uk) ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and arc eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement - matters of concern identified

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a Listed body. I can confirm that am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination.

From the work undertaken, it was noted that the following did not have sufficient documentation to support the balances per the financial statements.

  1. The charity's accounting system docs not account for funds and potential restrictions on use of funds.

  2. The charity is closely linked with Umoya Trust Zambia, a foreign charity, which Umoya Trust UK supports. Controls have not been put in place to adequately separate the resources, assets and expenditure of the two entities clearly.

  3. The charity has not maintained any stock records through the year, though it has now closed the shop and donated all stock to Gillingham Street Angels, Registered Charity No. 1184311.

  4. The charity has not maintained a fixed asset register.

  5. The charity was not able to provide to full evidence for a sample of expenses selected, in particular evidence supporting £6,113

I confirm that no other matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. Except for the matter of concern noted above accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. Except for the matter of concern noted above the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. The accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; and

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I confirm that there are no other matters to which your attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
