ee ANNUAL REPORT OF ZIMBABWE PENSIONERS SUPPORT FUND UK BRANCH YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
It has been a pleasure te once again report on the activities of our ZPSF branch for this financial year ending March 2025.
In the midst of a growing time of price rises and financial insecurity we are blessed to have our faithful supporters who give generously as they can. We get a large Income boost towards the Christmas run for the frail destitute pensioners. We, as trustees, would really like to thank each person who gives the smallest amount to large donations. Each donation is of special importance. It is with great pleasure to mention the group of Rhodesians World Wise, Kent Branch, who have a monthly get together and raise significant amounts of money. They have a good social time together and also raise money for the Trust. This financial year they have donated in excess of £3200, We as a Board of trustees are so grateful for their enthusiasm and help. We again received a substantial donation from the annual Zimfest held in Derby and their donation of £2000 was gratefully received.
We have finally sorted out the gift aid problem we had and received our first refund from HMRC which came in the next financial year.
Anne Tourle has been of immense help to Beti-Ann as she recovered from her health issues. They are both now sharing the load for the finances.
We had a clean bill of health from a Barclays Business review, and they are satisfied on our financial controls.
\We have this year managed to send just over £81,000 to South Africa towards food etc for the pensioners. This is down compared to last year but using the Wise accounts in various countries has helped people in the diaspora send money easily. | am suré our good Rhodesian/Zimbabwean spirit will keep the flames alive to support our pensioners.
We were sad to lose one of our trustees in 2025, Marshall Grieve, for personal reasons. He was a tremendous asset to the trustees in the time he served. We thank him for hig dedication and help over the years.
We are very grateful to our auditor, Peter Philips, for his continuing support and help in ensuring we keep our accounts up to date and accurate.
With grateful thanks to all the trustees for their support and help over the last year.
‘Doh. Migs
Beti-Ann McLean Treasurer/Trustee
