## **Report of the Trustees**
## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2020**
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. 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 1 January 2019).
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and aims**
Thandizo is a grant giving charity which aims to work with registered charities and other non-governmental organisations in the countries identified. Its objects are;-
1. The promotion of sustainable development in Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Tanzania for the benefit of the public by:-
a) the preservation , conservation and protection of the environment by prudent use of economic resources;
b) the relief of poverty and the improvement of the conditions of life in socially and economically disadvantaged communities;
c) the promotion of sustainable means of achieving economic growth and regeneration.
2. The relief (in any part of the world) of financial need and suffering among victims of natural or other kinds of disaster in the form of money (or other means deemed suitable) for persons, bodies, organisations and /or countries affected.
3. The prevention or relief of poverty or financial hardship (in any part of the world) by providing grants, items and services to individuals in need and/ or charities or other organisations working to prevent or relieve poverty or financial hardship
## **Significant activities**
The charity made significant donations in the year ended 31st December 2020 to WaterAid (Registered Charity Number: 288701) £10,000, (2019: £5,000).
## **Public benefit**
The primary benefits to the wider public from the charity's activities are:
a) The provision of grant funding for registered charities and other bodies running sustainable development projects in some of the poorest parts of the world. This will benefit the public in those regions by channelling funds to establish organisations so that funds can be targeted at projects which will give the most benefit to the local community. Sustainable development is for the public benefit because it focuses on helping communities meet their own needs at the present time, without compromising the environment for future generations.
b) The provision of funds to disaster relief appeals- this will benefit the public because the trustees will be able to donate funds very quickly. It is self-evident that this is beneficial to the public to have charities which can provide aid in the wake of a natural (or other) disaster.
c) The provision of grant funding for charities and other organisations working to relieve poverty is clearly for the public benefit as this will result in funds passing to organisations who provide food, water, equipment, housing and other basic necessities for people who are in need of these things.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Thandizo**
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Thandizo**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Thandizo (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do 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.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements**
## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2020**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of preparing the financial statements**
The financial statements of the charity, 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 Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
## **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.
## **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 cost 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.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
## **Governance costs**
The Trustees have not charged for their time or expenses in the period. The governance costs relate to accountancy and audit.
## **Allocation and apportionment of costs**
The charity has not allocated costs between funds as all resources are contained in the general fund.
## **Taxation**
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
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.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **Realised gains and losses**
All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities.
## **Fixed asset investments**
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
