Helping them physically. spiritually and emotionally. TAR
Summary of the main activfties undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects Senior friendship scheme Very poor and elderly people in Uganda are supported by regular and one-off donations from the UK public. This enables them to access free.. psych(Fsocial support (including Christian fellowship), medical care, regular health screening and advice, food and housing support improved water and sanrtation help to become more self-sufficient where possible. The development of friendships between UK supporters and their seniors are encouraged through exchanging letters and photos. Awareness and fund raising In the UK, many people give very generously of their time and effort to enable this ministry in Uganda. For example, in the past year.. presentations have been given to new groups to raise awareness of the plight of the elderly in Uganda, to inform people of the work of ROTOM and to encourage new supporters. Regular newsletters were sent to supporters regarding the work in Uganda and special projects such as latrine renovation, house repairs, and food supplementation and distribution. We have continued to help fund a full-time field nurse to work in the community. Regular correspondence was made between individual supporters in the UK and the elderly Ugandans that they support. Despite the continued effects of wars and financial pressures l am pleased to say that we have been able to continue our support of 34 seniors 3 village volunteers and two grandchildren. We continue to target the issue of clean water. Most of our seniors now have a large rainwater collection tank alongside their home. They no longer need to walk to the muddy water holesl We have seen a second deep well installed in the village which will benefit the whole community. This was kindly funded by Rotary clubs from UK and Uganda TAR
Governance Monthly and quarterty reports were received from Uganda as required. We continue to work on our organisational policies and have updated these as well as developing several new ones in line with best charity practice. Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year Activities funded by our grants to ROTOM Uganda during the year included the following: 1) Senior Friendship Scheme 37 poor elderly people in Uganda were supported by monthly donations from UK sponsors. This enabled them to access free psycho-social support, medical care. regular health screening and advi food and housing support and help to become more self-sufficient. This was achieved throu him rovin cro roduction in v etable ardens and TAR
donating small livestock such as chickens and goats. Development of friendships between sponsors and their seniors was encouraged through exchanging letters and photos. The bi-weekly fellowship gatherings that the seniors enjoy so much have been reinstated. With the help of village volunteers seniors were visited regularly in their homes. 2) Medical care and advice The role of the field nurse remains vital. Village volunteers were trained to do basic moniloring and care under the nurse's supervision. The field nurses supervised the administration of medication and liaised closely with medical staff in ROTOM Uganda's health centre. Health promotion work has continued alongside the regular screening and medi&ql care of all our registered seniors. The two medical centres continue to serde the sicker seniors both with out patient and in patient ca. Irv 3) Promote independence Independence is encouraged wherever possible by supporting their existing food production efforts and boosting these with other income generating projects, primarily small livestock. However, some particularly frail seniors needed more care and were supplied with supplemenlary food when they required rt. A second very frail senior was moved to a Village Outreach care facility in another area for more intense support 4) Housing and living conditions A programme of house repair and renovation continues as funds allow. The personal comfort of our supported seniors is also addressed whenever possible by the provision of such things as mattresses, mosquito nets. bedding, and clothing. Afi of our seniors now have good bedding and most have new bed frames. 2024 Christmas gifts Each senior was given a solar lamp as a Christmas present this year.
