TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st OCTOBER 2022

Objectives and Activities:

To relieve the needs of people with disabilities in Peru by the provision of grants and services, , and to support the work of local people and organisations assisting these disabled people.

Public Benefit and Achievements and Performance :

Peru People’s grants have enabled Runaperu to support disabled people in two rural communities in the north of Peru.

In Montero, we have enabled them to build a day centre, offering free physiotherapy treatment to disabled people. A small group of young people attend skills-based workshops regularly.

Regular visits are made to disabled people living in isolated communities around the towns.

In Santo Domingo, physiotherapy clinic facilities have been provided by the local town council.

Financial Review:

During the year our donations have remained strong, from a core group of committed donors and supporting churches. We have received substantial gifts from individuals and through a charity with which Myrtle Martin is linked.

Peru People has disbursed all but a very small amount of its unrestricted income in the furtherance of its objectives this year. A reserve fund of donations specified for building stood at £30,658.40.

This is allocated to the building of a second floor on Montero’s day centre.

This work is expected to be carried out during 2023.

Myrtle produces a quarterly newsletter which keeps donors informed and maintains interest in the work of the charity.

Charity Structure:

Peru People has been operating as a fundraising and grant-making charity since 2010. It was set up by Trust Deed on 14[th] September 2010.

A Peruvian organisation was also set up, composed of interested people drawn from the local Baptist Church This Peruvian organisation, Runaperu, has an equivalent Trust Deed, setting out its aims and objectives which are the same as for Peru People. Runaperu is legally registered as a Not for Profit organisation in Peru.

Declarations: The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.

Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st October 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 7.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

(i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;

(ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission

(iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:

(i) the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

(ii) the accounts did not accord with the accounting records

(iii) the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
