The objects of the NUHA Foundation are the advancement of education for the public benefit in such ways as the charity trustees think fit, including but without limitation by designing and running annual competitions such as annual writing competitions open to all anywhere in the world which will:
1. promote original and critical thinking on and interaction around questions of education; and
2. promote the self-confidence of non-native speakers of the language of the competition to write in that language as a means of developing their ability to participate in a global knowledge society.

The main activity undertaken by the NUHA Foundation was to run the Blogging Prizes, namely an annual writing competition designed in accordance with the objects of the charity, as set out above. The Blogging Prizes were held annually from 2011 to 2019, before being interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic. We hope to resume them again in the next financial/reporting year.
We confirm the trustees had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.
