## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 1[st] July 2024 To 30[th] June 2025** **Charity name: Friends of Think About Them** **Charity registration number: 1168956** ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** Friends of Think About Them (FOTAT) aims to support the charitable work of Think About Them (TAT), a Kenyan Community Based Organisation (CBO) working in Nakuru, Kenya in such ways as shall be thought fit, by the provision of grants and raising awareness of the work of the organisation. TAT is a community-based organization (CBO) working towards improving the status of children in Nakuru, Kenya with special emphasis on the welfare of children living on the street. Activities are carried out through - education / training - the advancement of health or saving of lives - the prevention or relief of poverty - economic / community development / employment - human rights / religious or racial harmony / equality or diversity Best Interest of the Child has been a leading factor towards every input in place to attain the objectives. A lot of people have greatly contributed both in kind and cash. Since August 2016 to date, there has been a great progress in TAT as a program through its activities. So many people have come on board to assist achieving the dream. It has been a network of encouragement and teamwork. ## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** The core activity for Think About Them this year has been the weekly meetings with those children and youths who are homeless. The sessions have taken place weekly until March 2024. ## **OUTREACH PROGRAMME** The weekly sessions held by TAT pre-pandemic were a crucial part of the project when TAT workers could contact the children and provide the essential support in terms of education, food, and a sense of wellbeing. ## **1. Weekly sessions** The weekly sessions were being attended regularly, however, due to staff difficulties these are currently on hold. ## **2. Youth Empowerment** Think About Them encourages the boys to be part of the agents of change for other children who are homeless. The TAT workers and counsellors disseminate the information to the boys at the group who are then encouraged to pass on this information to their peers. Education around sexual health and breaking down the myths about HIV/Aids is so important to give these children a chance. The open discussions based around fact and not fiction helps the boys to pass on accurate information and encourage others to protect themselves from sexually transmitted diseases. ## **NETWORKING** TAT continues trying to work with other stakeholders in the sector of child protection, government included. They recognize that TAT can only play a limited part of the change now. TAT has tried bringing the children’s department closer to their work through the district children’s office (DCO) and office of social welfare department of the local government. ## **FUTURE PLANS** ## **1. Weekly Sessions** Weekly sessions are being reviewed and TAT will consider their strategies to best support the children living on the street. ## **2. Networking** TAT will continue to network with local authorities and other charities working with the homeless in Nakuru. ## **FRIENDS OF THINK ABOUT THEM PLANS** Think About Them future projects are currently on hold, and any future plans are being reviewed. ## **Financial Review** Total receipts for the year are £404. These are the recorded accounts for Friends of Think About Them from July 2024 to July 2025. **Friends of Think About Them 1168956** ~~_a~~ **Receipts and payments CC16 accounts a Period Start Period end For the Date To date period from 01/07/2024 30/06/2025** ## **Section A Receipts and** ~~|~~ **payments** **Unrestric Restrict Endow Total Last ted ed ment funds year funds funds funds to the to the to the to the to the nearest nearest £ nearest £ nearest £ nearest £ £ A1 Receipts** Donations **404 - - 404 840 - - - - -** Fund Raising **-** _**Sub total** (Gross income for AR)_ **404 - - 404 840 A2 Asset and investment sales, (see table). - - - -** ~~—~~ **-** ~~JES~~ **-** ~~ES~~ **-** ~~E=~~ **-** |**_Sub total_**|
