Objectiv￿. stralegies and acÉivili
The charity has been very active again this year. We have taken part in the organising of a number of
educational and awarenes5 events in UK which were well attended. We are thankful to our staff and volunteers
who have supported us in organising the events. We engaged sessional workers to fundraise and promote for
Help in Need Today's programme and activities at these events.
HtNT has donated funds for education for children in need locally, and for projects in Bangladesh helping the
needy and poor people in disadvantaged areas. We have mainly distributed food, educational materials and a
number of orphans were also helped througb these donations.
During the previous year the charity arranged a pilgrimage to Mekkah for which it received income from the
participants to cover the cost of the trip.
Objects and aims
The objects of the Charity are the PTevention or relief of poverty or fmancial hardship anywhere in the world by
providing or assisting in the provision of education, training, healthcare projects and all the necessary support
desiglled to enable individuals to generate a sustainable income and be self-sufficient as well as helping needy
people survive in extreme poverty.
Publlc Beneflt Statemenl
The trustees confirni that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to
have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charlty Commission for England and Wales.
Use of volunleers
HINT is very involved in the comrnunity and relies on voluntary help. Around 60 volunteers supported us in this
financial year (2023 - 60). We wish to thank all our volunteers for their loyaI support and contribution.
FKnancial review
Total income from donations increased from £454,146 in 2023 to £595,318 in 2024.
As a result of this the Charity made a small profit of £3,264, compared to a deficit of £92,401 in 2023. At the

A5 a result. the Board has approved a policy whereby the unrestricted fi￿dS not committed, should be held ID
reserve and maintained at a level, which ens￿eS that HINT'S core activity could continue during a period of
unforeseen difficulty.
