## **Trustees Report** 

## **Governance** 

Holy’s Home for Children is a Foundation Charitable Incorporated Organisation with a governing Constitution dated 14 April 2016. The financial statements have been prepared in the format prescribed by the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP2015 (FRS102)) and the Financial Reporting Standard 102. The legal and administrative information set out earlier in this document forms part of this report. 

Those in charge of the directing, controlling and managing of the charity on a day-to-day basis are the trustees. Each of the founding trustees at time of registration were appointed for a term of three years, any new trustees must be appointed by a resolution passed at an official trustee meeting of the charity. 

The work of the charity in Ghana is managed by Eric Acheampong and a team of local Ghanaians, both in consultation and construction of the home and its surroundings. 

## **Objectives** 

The purpose of the charity as stated in the Constitution (14 April 2016) is: 

_For the public benefit, the relief of poverty of orphaned children in Ghana by building and operating an orphanage that provides safe accommodation, nutrition, emotional and practical support to the children who live there, enabling them to fulfil their potential._ 

The work of the charity is guided by the belief that every child deserves to live in a safe and supportive home where education play’s the primary role, without becoming separated from the community in which they live. 

Holy’s has four main objectives: 

1. Provide a safe and supportive home for children orphaned by parental death or abandonment, through the construction of a financially self-sustainable children’s home 

2. Create a home environment that enables children to fulfil their full potential, without removing them from their local traditions, communities and extended families 

3. To support the local community by providing employment with work needed to run the home and its surroundings 

4. To provide clean and safe drinking water at an affordable cost for the nearby towns and villages 

The pure water project is the key to ensuring the home becomes financially self-sustainable. Taken from a bore hole, water will be purified and packaged on-site, then sold to the surrounding towns and villages. As well as providing a more competitive solution to clean 



drinking water, this income will enable the home to support itself without the need for voluntary help from overseas. This both empowers the local community and ensures that the charity has the strength to continue achieving its objectives in the future. 



The trustees confirm that the charity was dormant throughout the financial year. No fundraising or charitable activities were undertaken. The charity received no income and incurred no expenditure during the period. The trustees continue to keep the charity under review. 

Signed on behalf of all trustees
