The trustees submit their annual report with their accounts for the year ending 4[th] April 2022 ## PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND REVIEW OF THE YEAR The main activity is to collect and sterilise prosthetic limbs from developed countries and take them to amputees in developing countries. The Charity made a loss of £157.63 for the year. ## STATUS The Charity was founded in 2015 and since then has collected over 100 prosthetic limbs so far. These are being stored safely until they can be sent to Kenya. There have been further communications with Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret, where the first batch of limbs will be sent. Fundraising activities during this year were difficult/impossible as a result of the continuation of the global pandemic & Nationwide Lockdown. ## **Trustees** The trustees who served during the year are shown on page 6 Approved by the trustees on 1[st] May 2022 and signed on their behalf by David Ruscoe Chairman Page 4 ## Independent Examiner’s Report I report on the accounts for the year ending 4[th] April 2022 which are set out on pages 1+2 ## 1.1 **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and examiner** - The Charity’s Treasurer is responsible for the preparation of the accounts. She considers that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: - Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Charities Act - To follow the procedures laid down under the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under Section 145(5) of the Charities Act): and - To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **1.2 Basis of independent examiner’s report -** My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the group and a comparison of the financial statements. It also includes considerations of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as the treasurer concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **1.3 Independent examiner’s Statement -** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements - To keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Act; - To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or 2. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
