and 1.19|Summary of Main Activities and Public Benefit
During the reporting year, the Foundation continued to
advance its charitable purpose of improving access to
essential healthcare and supporting community wellbeing in
remote areas of Fiji. The main activities undertaken in
pursuit of this purpose, and for the direct public benefit, are
summarised below.
Fundraising and Income Generation
The Foundation raised a total of £11,284.97, primarily
through JustGiving donations from members of the
community. Although the charity operated with limited
capacity for organised fundraising events, the donations
received provided vital resources to progress our
healthcare-focused mission. These activities directly
support our purpose by enabling the delivery of essential
services and infrastructure in underserved regions.
Health Clinic Development on Beqa, Fiji
Income generated during the year was allocated toward one
of the Foundation’s key projects: the construction of a new
health clinic on the remote islands of Beqa. This project
aligns directly with our charitable objective of improving
healthcare access for isolated communities.| ## Activities undertaken during the year included: - Preparatory planning, coordination, and engagement with local community leaders and partners. - Budgeting for materials, logistics and initial construction work. - Oversight of the early implementation phase of the clinic build. Although the clinic reached full completion in November 2025 and outside the accounting period covered by this report, the groundwork and investment undertaken this year were essential to the successful delivery of the project. Once fully operational, the clinic will provide direct public benefit by offering accessible primary healthcare services to the residents of Beqa. A fuller account of the clinic’s completion and community impact will be documented in next year’s report. The Trustees confirm that all activities carried out during the year were undertaken wholly in line with the Foundation’s charitable purposes and with due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. The health clinic project represents a significant advancement of these purposes by addressing health inequalities, supporting community resilience, and improving quality of life for beneficiaries in Fiji.

and the Difference Made to
Beneficiaries.
During the year, the Foundation made
meaningful progress towards its
mission of improving healthcare
access and community wellbeing in
remote regions of Fiji. Although
operating with modest financial
resources and limited organisational
capacity, the charity achieved several
significant milestones that have
delivered tangible benefits to its
intended beneficiaries and contributed
to broader societal good.
1. Strengthening Access to
Healthcare for Remote Communities -
A central achievement of the year was
the advancement of the Beqa Health
Clinic Project, an initiative designed to
address the longstanding lack of
accessible healthcare on the remote
islands of Beqa.| . Funds raised throughout the year enabled the Foundation to move the project from planning into active development, laying the essential groundwork for the facility’s construction. Key achievements included: Securing sufficient income to initiate the build. Coordinating early-stage construction activities with local partners. Ensuring the project met the cultural, environmental, and practical needs of the community it is intended to serve. Although the clinic’s final completion occurred shortly after the end of this reporting period, the progress made this year was instrumental in delivering a facility that will have a profound and lasting impact. Impact on Beneficiaries: Once operational, the clinic will provide residents with safe and reliable access to primary healthcare, reducing the need for long and often hazardous journeys to mainland medical services. The project directly addresses health inequalities by giving communities in remote island settings the same basic rights to healthcare enjoyed elsewhere. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |||The Trustees are satisfied that| |---|---|---| |||achievements made met our| |Achievements against|Para 1.41|objectives to relieve poverty and| |objectives set||hardship in Fiji.| |Performance of fundraising

Despite limited capacity for formal
fundraising, the Foundation
successfully inspired strong community
engagement, raising £11,284.97
predominantly through grassroots
contributions. This achievement
demonstrates not only financial
support but also increased awareness
of the challenges faced by Fijian
communities and the importance of
equitable healthcare provision.
This collective support has ensured
that vulnerable populations in Beqa
receive sustained attention and
practical assistance. We continue to
build a long-term foundation for future
projects that will further benefit.| |---|---|---| |Investment performance
