1moreChild, Uganda (contlnued)
Football continues to be a focus and our maln avenue for meeting new children in need. One of the
girls is a national referree with a national badge. This helped her to be a role modeil for our girls and
the nation at large. She got an opportunty to attend FIFA training where she was able to interact with
highly experienced people.
A boy attended sports media training as a mean of Ilvellhood.
Ten (5 boys and 5 girls) were trained in film, music, dance and drama during the second term school
holidays. This worked well to occupy them during the holidays and helping them gain new skills.
Cycling continues to be an important activity in 1 morechild. We have a cycling team who often
partake in races and go out most weekends on training rides. Cycling was done 5 times a week and
the other remaining days were for recovering. A number of our children have been very successful in
both male and female categories at national and international podiums. One of our boys got a gold
medal and another a bronze medal in the African Championship. Two boys won gold medals in the
national championship.. Elite and Junior categories. Two boys were on the national team of three
riders in the World Cycling Championship,
Three boys were involved In rugby durlng the course of the year.
Chess is another priority of ours teaching children how to plan ahead and work out the consequences
of a move - valuable life lessons. The children have taken part in competitions In Kampala and had
regular competitions within 1moreChild. This year the children have won a number of medals and
trophies in competitlons.
As a way of exposlng the children to more learning opportunities and having them preoccupied during
the school holidays they are encouraged to get involved in tailoring as a skill they can use in the
future. Children continue to receive medical attention at different medlcal facilities.

availability of sufficient funds in the UK.
Fundlng
Our funding comes from generous supporters, individual donations and grants from trusts. Funding
has increased this year, mostly due to the fact that we were once again able to host our Annual Cycle
Ride which raises a large proportion of our funds.

reserves of £5,000 at all times.

for schooling and support amongst the vulnerable children of Maese we will endeavour to care for
siblings of our exisiting children who are of school age. We hope to improve our level of academic
tutoring, culture of reading and sports training. A number of children participated in the 'reading tent,
