The objective of The Sparkle Foundation is to provide advancement in education and health for the public benefit of vulnerable children and young adults in the Republic of Malawi. This is being achieved through continued development of their individual capabilities, competencies, skills, and understanding in subjects of educational value and the provision of food and water and sanitation facilities.

Our Vision

To create a future in which every community has an equal opportunity to live a life of health and self-sufficiency.

Our Mission

Sparkle was forced to close due to Covid-19. Staff went out to communities and did outreach programmes on hygiene and sanitation for 15,000 people and fitted handwashing facilities in 17 villages.

February

As the education programmes were still closed throughout this month, teachers went around the villages doing home schooling.

March

Our virtual Sparkle Steps challenge saw seven-year-old Ralph Rowley raise over £2,000 for Sparkle walking his dog.

April

Our medical team in Malawi supported the Ministry of Health to roll out the Covid19 vaccine across our communities and facilitated workshops to raise awareness on the importance of being vaccinated as many were shunning it.

May

Our CEO returned to Malawi for the first time in 1.5 years since the pandemic began. She was overwhelmed with the impact we had been able to make during such a difficult period.

July

Students across the UK were breaking the rules at School as a fundraiser for Sparkle, to help support our girls in Malawi return back to education following the pandemic.

All of our children were provided with new official Sparkle uniforms. The first time ever for us!

October

The first UK Sparkle Gala Dinner took place raising over £90,000 for our programmes in Malawi.

November

Sparkle launched its e-commerce shop on the website and sold out of advent calendars in a week!

December

Sparkle officially registered as a charity in the UAE.

June

Our Sparkle Ambassador Gus Burton won the British GT 4 Championship which was aired on TV to thousands of people.

Impact of Covid-19

Sparkle was forced to close for the first six weeks of the year which meant we had to shift our education programmes to home schooling. Our health clinic became one of the busiest in the area as there was a shortage of medications in Malawi and we became a hub for disseminating information about the vaccine. Teaming up with the Ministry of Health through Matawale Health Center Sparkle helped administer hundreds of vaccines across Zomba. We played a huge role in educating people about the importance of having the vaccine, which saw a number of our older beneficiaries being vaccinated against Covid. The impact of Schools being closed in Malawi was felt across all of our communities with many girls falling pregnant or being forced into marriage, families having to relocate back to their home villages and parents losing their jobs. As a result, Sparkle had to focus on collecting research for a large part of 2021 to understand the need of the people we support and how we can shape and change our programmes to ensure they get the help they now need.

The Team

In the UK, our Founder Sarah Brook is the full time CEO and is supported by three other full-time employees in Marketing, Volunteer/Administration and Fundraising.

All of our UK salaries and administration costs were kindly covered through our ongoing corporate partnership with Cornelius Group and one other individual donor. This meant all of our additional donations went directly to the running of our programmes in Malawi.

Our Malawi operations are run entirely by our local team, and we have a Country Director and 26 Malawian staff, seven of whom hold management positions. We have a fulltime nurse and a part-time clinician who manage the medical clinic and outreach programmes. We continue to work with District Health Office in Malawi (DHO) through Matawale Health Center, who support us with our medical services. In partnership with Catholic University Malawi, we also take on interns who are completing their graduate studies and in 2021 we hosted two students.

We have a Community Committee who are voluntary members of the community who support us with our projects. Over 200 people who live in our catchment area work with us voluntarily to deliver our community programmes.

In 2021 our staff body collectively took part in over 980 hours of training, which was provided through volunteers and our corporate partners. Some key highlights were:

Our Education Team Leader gained a sponsorship to study a Diploma towards a Degree in Education at Catholic University of Malawi.
Our management team received online GDPR training
Two female staff successfully completed their driving training and obtained their driving licences.
Seven of our teaching staff successfully completed their online autism training certification.

Volunteers around the world

On average, 260 hours per month was being contributed by 110 volunteers in 7 different countries.

The number of UK hours reduced in 2021 from the previous year as people starting to return to work after the pandemic and the furlough scheme in the UK ended. However, with our registration in the UAE, we saw a huge influx of volunteers from Dubai. With the increase in available volunteer workforce, a more targeted approach in the recruitment and employment of volunteers is being implemented to ensure we continue to deliver the best possible volunteer experience offering a quality and fulfilling volunteer experience.

Health

The Sparkle on site clinic remained to be the major program, actively running during the lockdown open from 8am to 4pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. With nurses from Matawale providing OPD services to the Sparkle primary beneficiaries and the community at large. Following the recruitment of a full-time health officer in July, the arrangement between Sparkle and part time nurses from Matawale ended, enabling Sparkle to self-sustain its own medical practices. Since July the clinic was open five days a week, which saw us on average treating 20 cases daily. This increase in medical supplies had an impact on our budget but due to the success of the Sparkle Ball in the UK, we were able to meet the requirements. Several cases had to be referred to Zomba Central Hospital, due to the nature of the treatment required. The Malawi Poisons Board visited Sparkle and conducted an assessment and made several recommendations which the organisation implemented to ensure they could acquire the certification by the start of 2022. Our health outreach programmes impacted more people than ever before, with every village in our catchment area provided with access to a nurse at least once in the year.

Following from the 2020 partnership with the EN Foundation delivering our Cardiac Assessment project, five cases were identified for further investigation. This year all cases have been referred to specialists at Mwaiwathu Private Hospital and Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital respectively. All patients were assessed, and no further tests were required. The beneficiaries included four children and one staff member.

There has been an increasing demand on the Sparkle ambulance service with 79 trips being made enabling timely further medical attention which otherwise could have led to risk to loss of life, limb or eyesight. For example, one of our children had been scalded with hot water at home, which would have resulted in life changing injuries, if it were not for the Sparkle Ambulance service.

In partnership with Afropads Sparkle distributed sanitary pads to female youth in our community and started a pilot study to look at the best long-term solution to support girls during their menstruation.

Figure3. Overview of Clinic Data

Nutrition

With Sparkle providing emergency food packages during the pandemic to all of our children, we were delighted that when our school gates reopened there had been no change in the nutrition status of any of our beneficiaries. This was verified through our growth monitoring assessment consisting of MUAC, height and weight measurements. When research was conducted by our team in our communities across the different households we support, we discovered that over 50% of parents had lost their income due to Covid-19. As a result, they were no longer able to support their children with basic necessities, such as food and most admitted that the only meals their children would be receiving daily would now be at Sparkle. Taking immediate action, the organisation decided that it would no longer just feed the most vulnerable children and our nutrition programme was expanded to all of our beneficiaries. Collectively 30,232 meals were provided to both preschool and primary children. Out of these meals, 10,640 were breakfast meals for the preschool children and 19,594 was the total for lunch meals both for pre-school and primary school children. Mary’s Meals continued to distribute packages of Likuni Phala directly to beneficiaries from Q1 to Q3, which meant Sparkle provided additional breakfast during this period. The number of meals served was considerably down for 2021 due to six weeks of closure of our site at the beginning of the year and a number of children not returning back to Sparkle programmes after relocating during the pandemic. By Q4 our attendance had resumed as normal and with growth plans anticipated for 2022, we expect the number of meals provided to continue to rise.

With new children registering at Sparkle in the new school year (September 2021), several children were identified as malnourished. They were put onto a special programme which saw their parents trained to ensure they were providing the right food at home; snacks were given throughout the day whilst at Sparkle and full assessments were provided by our medical clinic to monitor their MUAC, height and weight on a fortnightly basis.

Sparkle partnered with UAE based charity Gulf for Good who pledged their commitment to support Sparkle with a farm in 2021 to help the charity become food secure by 2030. In preparation for the farm and in light of the expansion of the feeding programme, Sparkle had to construct a new larger kitchen on site to deal with the number of children we were now feeding. This started in Q4 and will be complete by Q1 2022. With limited space available, a decision was made to build the kitchen where the current vegetable garden was, as this would ultimately move to the new farm when ready. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, the funds for the farm were not released and therefore Sparkle’s agriculture programme had to be put on hold.

Waste Management continues to be a challenge in our community and during Q2 Sparkle launched an initiative 13 which saw all of our left-over food be repurposed into animal feed to support our local farmers.

Education

Sparkle runs three notable education programmes targeting different age ranges.

In Q1 and Q2 these were all severely impacted due to School closures and change in circumstances for many of our beneficiaries. When we were able to open, we had to do so at 50% capacity which meant we had to change our entire weekly schedule around to ensure we saw all of our beneficiaries at least twice a week. Naturally this impacted our attendance throughout the year and only by Q4 when most of the restrictions had been lifted, did we resume to our usual 80% attendance.

Teenage girls were the demographic mostly impacted by the lockdown in Malawi with many falling pregnant, being sent into child marriage, or never returning back to School when it eventually reopened. To combat this Sparkle added a series of educational awareness workshops to our core education programmes and offered a support network for girls and women who were risk or had experienced such challenges. This was done through the youth group and impacted 500+ people.

To mitigate the gaps caused by the reduced hours of Schooling over the past two years the Ministry of Education proposed a new school calendar starting from September 1[st] 2021, which would see a condensed timetable for students across four rather than three terms. There was no direct impact to the Sparkle education programmes and as normal we carried out vulnerability assessments in our community at the start of the new school year and registered 59 new pre-school children (32 Girls and 27 Boys) and 22 primary new children (10 Boys & 12 Girls).

1. Pre-Primary Early Childhood Development (ECD) Programme

In Malawi, only 48% of children under five access any form of early childhood development learning. Running from 7am to 12pm daily, Sparkle continues to offer the only free Montessori based nursery school in the region. We have partnered with different Montessori Centres across the UK, who deliver free online training to all of our staff, as and when the need arises.

With SEN not being a priority area in Malawi due to limited resources, the education team embarked on Autism training which saw seven teachers get equipped with knowledge and skills on how to identify children with autism. All teachers completed their eight-week training and were certified with Open Learn University in the UK.

Sparkle supports a number of children with a range of mental and physical disabilities. Varying from autism, cerebral palsy, blindness and deafness to medical related issues such as HIV and TB. These children fall into the high-risk category and therefore during the school closures, and throughout the year sparkle made extra provisions to complete home visits to safeguard their development and ensure they were getting the extra care and support they needed. Special classes were added to their school programme when they returned, and our teachers worked hand in hand to deliver a package that creates an atmosphere for our children to succeed and thrive.

In 2021, 34 pre-children graduated and transitioned from our pre-school to primary after they met the development milestones outlined in their curriculum. The children were well prepared and unlike those that were not in the Sparkle preschool they were able to do things independently.

2. Primary after school Programme

Supporting children from 6 through to 14, this programme provides additional learning opportunities for primary aged children in accordance with the national curriculum. When children eventually returned to Sparkle, it was apparent that many of the students had fallen behind with their learning, with some even forgetting the basics of reading and writing. Our education department also identified that as children had been out of the classroom for some time and had experienced more neglect and trauma than usual during the lockdown, there was an urgent need for social and emotional support to enable the children to resume their learning. Our programme was adapted accordingly and working hand in hand with the community and health departments, additional programmes were run alongside the curriculum including life skills training, sport, art and dance. Further research, including a needs assessment and several baseline surveys were conducted by our M and E team throughout the year to identify the impact the pandemic has had on primary aged children and what solutions, if any can Sparkle implement to get students back on track. The results from this research concluded that not only would additional classes be needed for the next three years, but some form of mental health programme should be launched to support all of our beneficiaries, who have experienced a number of challenges since Covid began.

Additionally due to the pressure on Schools during the pandemic, our two main local Primary Schools were unable to provide Sparkle with the level of information we had requested on our students. This naturally had an impact on the reporting we were usually able to do on each of our children. However, we hope to strengthen these relationships with the government schools in the new year and provide support where necessary to help them overcome the backlog of administration faced post pandemic.

3. Adult Literacy Program

With many parents losing their jobs in the pandemic, community members were no longer able to spare as much time to come to Sparkle to upskill themselves. Understandably they had to prioritise searching for paid work. This had a huge impact on our programme and the number of adults attending these classes greatly reduced. In Q4 we launched a campaign to kick-start this programme again, which had a positive outcome, and the number of people attending returned to pre-covid levels.

Aside of our three core programmes, the department also offers a series of community education programmes, across the 17 villages we support, which vary from term to term. From the start of the year, we ran tailoring lessons, hygiene and sanitation workshops, counselling, computer training, COVID19 preventative measures, advocacy seminars and a variety of other extra curriculum activities which involved various members of the community.

Community Empowerment

Community engagement is at the core of what we do at Sparkle. We work with a number of key stakeholders in our traditional authority, including village chiefs, community committees and community groups who all share our interest in community development, poverty reduction, and improvement of livelihoods.

1. Community Committee

With many households relocating during the pandemic due to loss of jobs, Q1 saw Sparkle readvertise for community committee members to ensure each village who we support was represented accordingly. This was achieved and we had 17 committee members attend our monthly meetings which were held to share updates of on-going activities and challenges faced within the institution. Unfortunately, 2021 brought more challenges than ever for our community and each village within our catchment area was impacted differently. With a high number of deaths across the community, a rise in prostitution and alcoholism, Sparkle worked hand in hand with the community committee for possible interventions. The community committee continued to be the link and supported Sparkle with follow ups and check ins in our children’s households. The committee also engaged parents and guardians on taking ownership and making any contributions they could to Sparkle. From the time we re-opened the children’s parents and guardians stepped in to support with meal preparations Monday to Friday for the entire year, as well as contributing maize which was used for our feeding program to help support the organisation with the rising cost of food.

2. Women’s Group

The Women’s Group was established to empower women and provide them with life sustaining skills, as well as capacity building to facilitate behaviour change in areas such as communication and income generating activities. The programme imparts knowledge on pressing health issues which are affecting the community and then uses the women as a tool for society enlightenment on identified issues. Due to the pandemic, the group dismantled, and we spent the first half of the year reaching out to these women to understand what had happened in their homes since Covid 19 and what ways we could get them back involved in the programme.

Once we had the list of women who wanted to re-join established, Q3 and Q4 focused on researching how best to implement the women’s group focused interventions such as Village Savings and Loans (VSL) and entrepreneurship training to empower these ladies with income generating activities. We wanted to ensure our programme met the needs of the women, post pandemic. With most of them at risk of Gender Based Violence from their intimate partners and the majority of them opting to stay in abusive situations as they were not empowered enough to stand on their own two feet, we had to do full assessments with our community facilitators and nurse to understand exactly how Sparkle can change their circumstances. During the

house-to-house assessments, counselling and support was offered by our team as we strengthen the relationships between the organisation and these women. As a result, we had over 75 women sign up for the programme.

3. Youth Group

Approximately 42% of girls in Malawi get pregnant or get married before the age of 18. Most of end up dropping out of school. This was even worse during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, the Sparkle youth group continued to operate and focused its interventions on issues of sexual and reproductive health, self-awareness, psycho-social support as well as computer trainings and sports sessions.

We also conducted a baseline study to determine what the needs of the youths were and how best our programming could respond to the rising need for maximum impact. We learnt that most of the youth needed distractions from the increased pressure both from peers and from home and that sports and computer trainings would be key. This led to us to establishing football and netball teams which participated in local tournaments.

Governance and Strategy

We had planned to open a satellite ECD centre in another village by October 2020, however due to COVID restrictions this has been put on hold. This was further delayed due to continued restrictions for the first half of 2021. However, by the end of Q2, Sparkle started working on the partnership agreement with Passion Centre for Children, with a view to opening a joint ECD centre in January 2022. From Q3 onwards, building work began at the new site to renovate the original house into a fit for purpose nursery School. Six months’ worth of construction was required to ensure it met the Sparkle standards. A recruitment drive for teachers was initiated and a vulnerability assessment was carried out in the new villages to register children who would be eligible for the programme.

Throughout this process all of our policies and procedures were updated and signed off by the UK and Malawi board. Our standard operating procedures were documented, and Sparkle now has a handbook for replication which will be used moving forward as part of our growth plans. Our three-year strategy, which has been worked on by the entire team for the last two years, was also presented to the board by the CEO and was signed off for implementation. This will see Sparkle replicate its model in at least four other areas in Malawi and move to another country.

Fundraising and Marketing

With Covid-19 forcing us to shift our attention to digital marketing, we decided to recruit a full-time marketeer who could focus on the online side of the business while the world started to open up again. This heavily paid off as we were able to expand our reach across all of our social media platforms, increase our donor data base and give our fundraiser the opportunity to just focus on income generation.

Sparkle had previously only held small scale events but in 2021 we decided to host two major fundraisers for the first time – The Sparkle Steps Challenge and The Sparkle Ball. Both were a huge success and generated 48% of our total income for the year.

With our Fundraising Officer focusing on income generation, we decided to start exploring different grant opportunities and migrate our CRM system from Salesforce to Beacon – which is more charity friendly. With Schools across the UK and Europe heavily impacted by the pandemic, we saw a reduction in our income from School partners, however this was compensated by an increase in individual donors, with mostly our long-term donors increasing their annual contributions. We also started new income streams in merchandise and restructured our child sponsorship programme. Both of which proved successful.

Investing in a fundraising and marketing officer paid off because it reduced the operational capacity of the CEO and gave Sparkle more resource to increase its supporter base, which enabled the income of the charity to increase in 2021 by £100K.

Following the partnership with Clifford Chance, Sparkle was provided with the funds to register the organisation in the UAE. This was a strategic decision made for a number of reasons. 1.Sparkle has huge growth plans and having a wider network of donors will ensure maximum success. 2. 40% of small charities were expected to close by the end of 2021 due to the pandemic and donor fatigue in the UK. However, with only 100 charities registered in the UAE, the demand of people wanting to donate and help, currently outweighs the supply, putting Sparkle in a strong position to generate any lost income experienced from UK donors.

Additional contribution made by partners and volunteers

Our partnerships with different companies continued throughout 2021, with both Cornelius and Clifford Chance providing pro-bono support for any of our overheads to reduce our administration costs. Our partnership with Clifford Chance was upscaled in August 2021, where we became their official pro-bono global partner which gave us access to all of their employees across the world to support with volunteering. As a result, Sparkle saw an increase in the number of hours provided across both companies by staff members for 2021, which equated to £82,050 worth of pro-bono support. Please note for reporting purposes this is reflected in the accounts as expenditure, however it was provided to us through time.

Partnerships also continue in Malawi with 50% of our food costs covered by local donors from businesses in Blantyre and 25%of our medications provided by local pharmacies. Mary’s Meals continue to support our nursery programme with breakfast daily.

Achievements against objectives set for the 2021 financial year and performance of fundraising activities against objectives set

Our 2021 income exceeded our budget due to the Sparkle Ball in the UK going ahead in Q4 which raised 90K. It should be noted that to comply with the UK accounting principles, costs for the ball were included in the UK expenditure for the year, which were more than covered by the income received from this event.

Our expenditure in Malawi increased as we expanded our team and recruited more employees to run our outreach programmes. Additionally with the impact of Covid-19 the cost of living also increased, which impacted our expenditure. For the first time we incurred costs relating to the establishment of the UAE Sparkle Charity Registration which were covered by Clifford Chance in a restricted donation.

Financial review

Result for the year

This is the third year the Charity’s income has exceeded the £250,000 threshold and therefore this is the third year the charity has prepared its financial statements in accordance with the Charity SORP.

The summary of results for the year are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities. The charity received income in the year totalling £388K (2020: £288K), including pro-bono services with a value of £82K . The majority of the £82K was from our corporate partners Clifford Chance, who volunteered with legal, governance, HR, leadership, marketing, and admin support.

The charity incurred expenditure totalling £338K (2020: £236K) which resulted in a net increase in funds for the year of £50K (2020: increase of £52K). It should be noted that as the CEO is paid in the UK, her salary is attributed to UK expenditure, however she spends at least three months a year overseeing the team in Malawi.

At the year end, the charity had net funds totalling £312K (2020: £262K). This amount is high for three reasons.

The expenditure in Malawi for Q4 was reduced by £80K because we had planned to open our second site. However, this was delayed due to the pandemic and will now open in Q1 of 2022.
We were unsure if the Sparkle events would take place because of UK lockdowns and restrictions and therefore wanted to air on the side of caution. Had this been the case, 48% of our income would not have been obtained and we would have been using up some of our reserves. Fortunately, the ball was a success and now these funds can be pushed forwards to 2022 so that we can implement our growth strategy.
Due to fundraising regulations in the UAE, it can take up to 18 months before donations from Dubai are able to be released into our account. We therefore had to make the necessary provisions to ensure we could support our operations in the UAE for 2022 whilst we wait for the funds to reach our account.

The charity continues to hold at least six months of operating expenses in reserve.

Charity’s principle source of funds

Corporate and School partnerships and individual donors.

Reserves policy and going concern

All charities are required to consider how much they need to hold in reserves. The level of reserves will vary depending on the scale and nature of the charity’s activities.

The trustees carry out a risk- based analysis in arriving at the level of reserves needed to protect against these unforeseen events. This risk-based analysis looks at the amount of reserves that would be needed if there were a significant fall in income and in light of the continued volatility of the Malawian Kwacha, the charity aims to keep at least six months running costs in reserve at any point in time. The reserves totalled £312K as at 31 December 2021.

The trustees have reviewed the circumstances of The Sparkle Foundation and its company under the control of this charity, in Malawi, and consider that adequate resources continue to be available to fund the activities of the charity and its company in Malawi for the foreseeable future. The trustees are of the view that The Sparkle Foundation is a going concern.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the charity are as follows:

1. COVID-19 (Medical)

With a shortage of drugs in the country and the cost of living over 25% higher, communities have become dependent on the Sparkle clinic as the only centre offering free medication. We have gone from having 20 patients a day to 80, which has put a huge strain on our budget. Additionally, the cost of fuel has increased dramatically due to a fuel crisis across sub-Saharan Africa, meaning the running of our ambulance service is extremely difficult, as well as expensive. Sparkle is currently having to rely on the running of just one vehicle across both sites, which is directly impacting our programmes.

2. COVID-19 (Nutrition)

With the funding for our farm still not received from our charity partner and our new kitchen now in the place of our vegetable garden, all of our food is having to be purchased from the market. Food costs have risen by 30% this year and are continuing to increase. As Sparkle is now feeding more children than ever, this has put huge pressure on our financials, with our nutrition programme now our most expensive out of our four pillars by 40%. To add to this 90% of Malawi’s fertiliser came from the Ukraine and with the current crisis, it is anticipated that by the end of 2022, Malawi, along with other countries in sub-Saharan Africa will face a food shortage. We are currently assessing alternative options as an interim measure while we wait for our farm to be purchased.

3. Covid-19 (Education)

With Schools struggling to recover since the pandemic and many students falling behind, there has been more children than ever in the classrooms. Unfortunately, local government schools are no longer able to house the number of pupils who require education and therefore they have introduced a split timetable. Primary children will now go to School either in the mornings or afternoons. This will impact our Primary after school programme as now 50% of our children will not be able to attend each, week. Due to limited space on our two sites, and our ECD centre running in the morning, we will be unable to have Primary aged children in the morning and therefore they will no longer be able to attend Sparkle classes. We are working with our partners to see what other options may be available.

4. Covid-19 (Community)

Many community members are still trying to get over the impact Covid-19 has had on their businesses, as well as their emotional and psychological wellbeing. We have seen a huge rise in the community in alcoholism and prostitution, as people have become desperate. The demand for our community programmes is now higher than ever, which in turn will put added pressure on our budget.

5. Current economic climate

With a 25.5% inflation rate in Malawi, we have had to increase our staff salaries accordingly. The exchange rate from the UK pound to the Kwacha does not reflect the inflation rate and therefore our overall running costs are now almost 20% higher than previous years. With our new site now up and running and our three-year growth strategy underway, our fundraising target has almost doubled from the previous year. To implement this growth, we are going to require more staff members, which ultimately will cost us more money. With the UK energy crisis, a global recession looming and a reduction in charitable giving worldwide, we are increasingly aware that we are having to look at best case and worst-case scenario when it comes to our finances and will have to hold quarterly financial meetings to monitor our progress.

6. Staff Recruitment

With rising costs of living, employees around the world are now needing higher salaries to support themselves and their families. As a charity we rely on public money, and therefore if donors are no longer able to be as generous due to their own personal circumstances, we will not be able to raise as much money as normal. Therefore, we can only offer middle of the range salaries and as a result we may not be able to attract the best talent for Sparkle. It also means that retaining staff will be a challenge as many will be likely to move if another opportunity presents itself for a higher wage.

7. Non-compliance with fundraising, data and other regulations

The Sparkle Foundation, as with other charities, is subject to an ever-increasing number of regulations. To add to this, our new charity registration in the UAE, also brings with it another set of regulations. Non-compliance could result in fines or reputational damage, which threatens the future of the charity. To mitigate against this the Chair and the C.E.O. have completed a Board Assurance Framework, which will assure the board that there is good compliance across the organisation.

8. Grant Funding

Due to the pandemic causing many charities to eat into their reserves, grant funders are now favouring those charities who have less than three months reserves in their account. Sparkle is not in this position as our growth plans were delayed and the fluctuation of the kwacha meant we were never able to go below six months, as an internal policy. With huge inflation in Malawi, and us planning on expanding our sites, we need to increase our income streams away from just corporates and individual donors and we were hoping to win a few grants to enable us to replicate our model across Africa. With less and less grants now available for charities like Sparkle, and many dictating how money should be spent over a short time frame, it is becoming extremely difficult for us to secure any significant grant funding that aligns with our programmes and values of long-term sustainable impact.

Structure, governance and management

Structure

The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. The charity’s model constitution was adopted on the 18 May 2015.

Appointment of trustees

When vacancies occur, trustees are recruited using a widespread recruitment campaign or in response to an approach by an interested party. They are interviewed by the chair, or at least one other trustee and the C.E.O. If suitable, having the right breadth of skills and experience, they will attend a board meeting and will then join the board if they and the rest of the board agree.

Trustee Induction and Training

New trustees are supplied with a comprehensive induction pack and meetings with the C.E.O. and the chair before their arrival.

Chair

Trustees elect a chair from the current serving trustees. The term of office for each position is two years Mr Neville Prior was unanimously selected as the chair in 2020, and he is the current chair.

Governance

Through the support of our legal partners Clifford Chance and by working hand in hand with our Malawian NGO board, we updated all of our policies, to reflect any changes in government laws both in Malawi, UAE and the UK, and also to ensure any potential risks were mitigated and accounted for in our policies. Several of our trustees will be travelling out to Malawi for 2022 to carry out internal audits.

Related Parties and relationships with other organisations

None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefits from their work with the charity. The Sparkle Foundation requires trustees and senior managers to declare any interests that they may have outside of the charity. Transactions and contractual relationships with related parties must be disclosed. On the 11 January 2018, the charity set up a new company, limited by guarantee, in Malawi, under their Companies Act, No. 15 of 2013. The name of the company is The Sparkle Foundation Malawi. Some of the Trustees are members of this company and this company is under the control of this charity. Setting up this company in Malawi was necessary to comply with local legislation. All transactions undertaken in Malawi are recorded within the accounts of that company. This has meant that these accounts for The Sparkle Foundation in the UK show transactions undertaken by this charity and do not include the transactions undertaken in Malawi. Transfers are made monthly from the UK to Malawi and are therefore shown as charitable donations in this company’s accounts and are shown as income in the accounts for the company in Malawi, which it then utilises for the objectives of this charity.

Remuneration policy for key management personnel

The board of The Sparkle Foundation considers the pay and terms and conditions of the key management

personnel. Pay is benchmarked by individual posts against roles in similar organisations through an external benchmarking process.

The trustees’ annual report, which includes the trustees report, has been approved by the trustees on

28/10/22 and signed on their behalf by:

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The Sparkle Foundation

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Sparkle Foundation (‘the charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes. This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit go beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view, and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the CIO’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

➢ accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

➢ the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

➢ the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.
