## **SAFARI SIMBAZ CHARITY TRUSTEES REPORT – Year ending 31[st] December, 2022** 2022 proved to be quite a major milestone year for the Safari Simbaz charity. Thanks to a major donation our charity received total donations of £77,733 during the year. This enabled us to contribute £71,140 towards the purchase of 5 acres of land near Mount Kenya where the new and much needed base for assisting the underprivileged youth in Kenya is to be built. We are intending to provide the final 10% for the land purchase in 2023, the land will then be registered in the name of Safari Simbaz Trust (Kenya). _The land purchase is a first step towards replacing the existing rented accommodation & operational base for the Safari Simbaz Trust. The existing base in Kikuyu (on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya) is on a small plot and consists of several rented corrugated tin buildings with few utilities. Apart from the poor condition, there is also uncertainty over how much longer the current base will be available for rental._ Following the purchase of land, the next phase requires significant further fundraising to build the ‘Academy’ on the land which will provide both accommodation & educational facilities for the youth supported by Safari Simbaz plus additional features enabling the centre to gradually become self-supporting though offering cycling related services/tours to visitors. The trustees look forward to ongoing fundraising and activities gaining significant momentum in 2023/2024. **Signed:** Ray Hince - Trustee Safari Simbaz Charity Trust (Europe) **Date:** 31[st] October 2023 **______________________________________________________________ SAFARI SIMBAZ CHARITY TRUST (EUROPE)** UK CHARITY REG.
