Structure, Governance and Management
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.
Recruitment and Appointment of the Trustee Board
The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the members of the Board of Trustees are elected to serve for a period of three years after which they must be re-elected, for a maximum of three terms, unless by special resolution this is extended. All Trustee Directors give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity.
The charity maintains a broad and relevant range of skills and experience on the board and in an effort to maintain this mix, Trustee Directors provide a list of their skills, which are updated annually. In the event of particular skills being lost due to a trustee leaving, individuals are approached to offer themselves for election to the board or are recruited by open advertisement. All potential Trustee Directors are interviewed by at least two members of the trustee board, including the chair.
Trustee Director Induction
All trustee directors are given a thorough induction to the work of the organisation and their role, which includes meetings with staff and a pack of reference information.
Risk Management
A risk register including mitigation plans is maintained and updated quarterly. The major risks identified by the Trustee Board in this year related to the impact of COVID-19 on both operations in Africa and fundraising events in the UK. Health, safety and security risks related to working in African countries also remain prominent. From the risk register procedures have been established to deal with major risk issues and mitigate against future eventualities.
Organisational Structure
The Trustee Board meet five times a year and at present there are eight Trustee Directors with a range of professional backgrounds relevant to the working of the charity. Trustee Directors are responsible for overseeing the strategic direction of the charity and for ensuring its alignment with its vision and mission and is compliant with charity and company law. Day to day management of the charity is delegated to the Chief Executive. The Chief Executive is responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers on the agreed strategy and for the supervision of the staff team and also for ensuring that the team continue to develop their skills and working practices in line with good practice.
Responsibilities of the Trustee Directors
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year.
The Trustee Directors are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. The Trustee Directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
Objectives and Activities
Our vision
“An Africa where all young men and women have the information, understanding, confidence, freedom and resources to make the right choices to protect themselves and each other from HIV”
Our mission
“To provide young African men and women with HIV and SRHR support through football coaching that will have a significant positive impact on their decision making and behaviour, limiting the impact of HIV within their communities”.
Aim
Currently working through partner organisations in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Senegal and Guinea we aim to provide added value to their work, increasing the positive impact of their HIV and SRHR programmes. We do so using our professional coach trainers to train their coaches, teachers, peer educators and youth leaders to use our HIV and SRHR educational football coaching drills in order to reach shared objectives outlined below.
As our relationships with our partners develop, we aim to transfer our programmes to them, by developing local coach trainers and providing training and support in fundraising and programme management. Our goal is for our partners to become virtually self-sufficient, our network of coaches will grow exponentially as our local coach trainers increase and our role in that situation moves toward quality assurance and monitoring.
Objectives
Our objectives relate only to the boys and girls, young men and women with whom our partners work. Though we will have other objectives such as the number of coaches trained, the quality of our resources and increases in knowledge of HIV within our beneficiary group, these are a method of achieving our objectives rather than an end in themselves. Through targeted research programmes and building the capacity of our partners we develop M&E systems, processes and tools that prove that young people engaged in our programmes will demonstrate a reported:
-
Increased knowledge and understanding of vital information related to HIV and relevant SRHR issues
-
An increase in positive attitudes and the rejection of myths and stigma related HIV and relevant SRHR issues
-
An increase in reported and observed positive behaviour related to HIV and relevant SRHR issues
-
Increased reported and observed life skill competencies and confidence
Ensuring our work delivers our strategy in line with our vision and mission
We review our aims, objectives and activities each year. This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aim, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustee directors consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

TACKLE AFRICA
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
Strategic Priorities 2018 to 2021 were :-
1. On Beneficiary Impact
- To analyse, evaluate and improve the impact of a well-delivered, typical and realistic curriculum of HIV education through football coaching sessions on beneficiaries, incorporating recent learning that sessions often need simplifying in order to be deliverable by local coaches. We will commit whatever available resources are required to achieving this priority as we recognise it is fundamental to Tackle Africa’s approach and success. We recognise that demonstrating quality will act as a catalyst for growth.
2. On Coach Development
-
To incorporate learning from recent research and consultation into our operational activity and analyse, evaluate and improve our ability to deliver regular high quality sessions to consistent groups of beneficiaries over significant enough periods to achieve positive change. We will transition to an Africa led Operations team in the countries we work through the introduction of locally employed Programme Managers. We recognise that this will increase unit costs and may affect the timescale required to achieve scale.
-
On Achieving sustainability
-
To revisit our plans to assess and build partner capacity in the necessary areas to ensure our partners have the necessary skills, resources and motivation to plan, implement and monitor Tackle Africa programmes. We recognise that programmatic sustainability is key to our growth, allowing us to develop new projects that add to rather than replace existing or previous work.
Specifically during 2018-2021
TackleAfrica will achieve significant and measurable changes in identified key areas related to HIV and sexual health with its beneficiaries:
-
an increase in reported and observed positive behaviour including accessing VCT, VMMC, contraception and adherence to ARV treatment
-
Increased knowledge and understanding of vital information needed to make safer decisions in relation to sexual health
-
An increase in positive attitudes and the rejection of myths and stigma
-
Increased reported and observed life skill competencies needed to make safer decisions in relation to sexual health
These objectives can be seen to be integral to the current UN Sustainable Development Goals. Specifically, our work on HIV contributes to Goal 3 “Good Health & Well-being” and our work on SRHR, Child Marriage, FGM and Gender Based Violence contributes to Goal 5 “Achieving Gender Equality and empowering all Women and Girls”.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
Financial review
The Trustee Directors have reviewed the overall finances of the charity and are satisfied with the current financial position. In line with the charity's financial policies, the board reviews the charity's finances on a quarterly basis to monitor the financial health of the organisation and to identify any required action.
Income Receivable in 2020/21 totalled £768,152 and exceeded expenditure by £186,638. Restricted income within this amount will be used as agreed with funders. Unrestricted income within this amount will be committed to develop further programming in 2021/22 and to assure the organisations free reserve position, in line with Tackle Africa’s reserves policy.
A further £54,963 of programming funding was secured by TackleAfrica that flowed directly from funder to delivery partners in Africa to run TackleAfrica programming. These figures do not appear in our accounts for the period as either income or expenditure but are a more accurate reflection of the scale of TackleAfrica programming.
Reserves
Tackle Africa’s reserves policy is to maintain free reserves in the range of £100K to £140K, this is based on the organisations shutdown costs, including a time allowance, along with a buffer against the financial risks the organisation faces.
Our reserves position stands at £209,170. Having considered the probability of the financial risks, in particular the uncertainty around unrestricted fundraising in 2021, due to the pandemic, the Trustee Board considered it appropriate to hold reserves at this slightly increased level for this accounting period.
Funding
Tackle Africa continues to raise a significant proportion of its income from UK events including Football Marathons, this totalled £78,536 in 2020/21. In addition, Tackle Africa has benefitted from funding from the following supporters and sponsors in 2020/21:
-
ATD Foundation
-
BT Sport’s The Supporters Club
-
CEDAR Foundation
-
Centre for Infectious Disease Research Zambia (CIDRZ)

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
No critical accounting judgements have been made in the process of applying the accounting policies below. There are no key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Going concern
The trustees have considered the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in their assessment of the
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised under the performance model. The grant income is recognised upon performance conditions being satisfied (and should it be received in advance of satisfying the performance, recognition of the income is deferred as a liability) and where there are no specific future performance-related conditions then grants are recognised when proceeds are received or receivable.
Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS)
The CJRS grant relates to government support for staff who have been furloughed due to Covid-19. These claims are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as Income from Government Grants.
Donations
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102).

Trading activities
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Charitable Activities
The charity receives corporate grants in respect of agreed projects. Income from grants is recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Allocation and apportionment of costs
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs and governance costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.
Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Motor vehicles - 25% on cost
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitabe activities.

Fund Accounting

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Debtors and creditors
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
Foreign Currency
Foreign currency transactions are initially recognised by applying to the foreign currency amount at the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency at the balance sheet date are translated using the closing rate.
