Trustees. Annual Report for the Year Ended 31" March 2023
(continued)
Fundraising Activities
Fundraising activities focus on a wide variety of different events and the success or
otherwise will be carefully analysed to ensure tbe best use of resources. These activities
include an occasional ball. a Cbristmas appeal letteT, and other events held thioughout
the year.
Reserves Policy
Going forward, the Trustees have agreed to maintain General funds at least equivalent to
six months running costs of the charity, (c£34,IK)O). The Trustees have agreed to increase
the reserves level from prevtous years due to the economic llncertainties Én Kenya.
With respect to the High School Sponsor Fund, this is higher than usual as a new school
bank account was in the process of being opened but tbe application process was not
completed until later in 2023. Therefore the 2024 accounts will show a significant
reduction in the High School Sponsor Fund. The Trustees will continue to ensure that
fllnds are appropriately ts7nsferred to support the causes the Charity supports in Kenya.
Future Plan8
The Celebration High School fully opened again (following the Covid 19 pandemic) in
early January 2021. Further intakes Èn August 2021 and April 2022 means that the
number of students attending the school is now 236, this is almost the current full
capacity of the school of 250 students. In the following year a new kitchen and dining
r(K)m to be built at the High School.

Respective r¢sponsMbilities of Trustees and Examiner
The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's
TTUStees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the
Charkties Act 2011 (The Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Independent Examiners? Statement
It Ès my responsibility to .
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act"
to follow the procedures laid down in the genernl Directions given by the ChaTity
Comtnission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charlties Act. and to slate whether
particular Tnatters have come to my attention.
My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by
the Charity Commission.
An exaMin￿On includes a revi¢w of the accounting records kept by the charity
and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusuaI iterns or disclosures in the accounts and seeking
explanations from the Trust¢¢s ¢oncerning any such matters. The proc¢dures
undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audi¢ and
consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the a¢¢ounts present a'true and
faiff view. and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below.
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention which
gTves me reasonable cause to believe that in. any material aspect. the
requirements..
l. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities
Act. and to prepare accounts that accord with the accounting re¢oTds and
comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not
b¢¢n met. or

proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The loan was ortginally given to the clwity in Kenya so that land could be purchased to build a
high school. The school was butlt and opened in 2019. The intention 18 that the school WRII, at some
point in the future, generate additional funds through its own fundraising activities and repay the
loan from UOC. However. Covid19 put back the date when the school would be able to generate
additional funds. In the light of this the Trustees considered it pn￿ent to provkde for this loan in
full. This provision was made in the 2020 accounts.
