Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

“For the public benefit, the relief and assistance of disabled children and young people aged 0-25 years and their families living in and around the Glenview District of Harare, Zimbabwe, in particular but not exclusively by (a) specialist care and education provision (b) raising awareness of disability (c) providing specialist equipment, advice and training.”

March 2012

The organisation carries out the following activities in support of its purposes:

The trustees organise events to raise awareness of and to fundraise for the charity.
The trustees also assist other supporters both individuals and organisations such as schools and businesses to similarly raise funds by giving presentations at or provide communications materials for these events.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

The organisation has supported the setting up of a mirror charitable organisation with its own board of trustees in Zimbabwe to enable operational activities and decisions to be more effectively overseen from a governance perspective. This is particularly important given the political climate in Zimbabwe and the prevalence of corruption. We must ensure that any grant monies that are provided to the centre go directly to it and to the benefit of the children who attend the centre and their families rather than rely on individuals to carry out this role.
The organisation reviews the priorities of the centre through communication with both the centre and the charity trust board in Zimbabwe. These priorities are ranked by the trustees and a number of funding grants have been made by the organisation to the centre via the Zimbabwean trustee board. A project justification is completed including financials and evidence of impact which is then reviewed and either approved or rejected by the UK organisation’s trustees
The organisation also directly provides equipment to the centre through shipments or via visits by the trustees to Zimbabwe.
In pursuance of their activities and responsibilities as trustees, the trustees have full regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

policy on grantmaking;
policy programme related investment;
contribution made by volunteers.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

During the financial year 2021-22 the organisation held two main funding raising events (2 tennis competitions).

Communication with the trustees in Zimbabwe and staff at the centre has been maintained but continued to be challenging due to the impact of Covid with the Centre being closed for extended periods beyond restriction dates in the UK.

Funding grants this year have focused on provision of food at the Centre and providing support parcels to families due to the impact of economic hardship and food shortages linked to Covid in Zimbabwe. Around 30 families supported by the Centre were provided with food and other household essentials such as laundry items, soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes.
