Trustees’ Annual Report
The Trustees have pleasure in submitting their annual report and accounts for the year ending 31 August 2021.
The object of the charity is the relief of refugees, particularly, but not exclusively, by the provision of food, clothing and any other goods that are needed. By 'refugees' is meant people who have been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster or those who are in poverty as a consequence of war, persecution or natural disaster.
As explained in last year’s report, all but a nominal part of the charity’s funds were donated to two suitable charities in the year to 31 August 2020. A small balance of £94 remains in the charity’s bank account.
The charity is not currently active and the trustees will keep under review the question of whether and when the charity’s operations might be reactivated.

Notes to the Accounts
1 Basis of Preparation
The receipts and payments account only shows transactions involving the movement of cash. The statement of assets and liabilities shows the value of assets and liabilities existing at the balance sheet date. Goods donated and on hand at the balance sheet date are not valued for accounts purposes.
2 Restricted and Unrestricted Funds
The categorisation of funds as restricted results from two guarantees given by the trustees. First the trustees committed to meet any travel and accommodation costs until 30 November 2017 and to ensure that any subsequent such costs are not paid out of pre 30 November 2017 donations. Secondly for the initial period of the charity from November 2016 until 30 April 2017, the trustees undertook to meet all the costs of the charity to ensure that donations made would be 100% applied for the benefit of refugees (and to take responsibility for any transport and other costs arising after 30 April 2017 which relate to delivery to refugees of aid donated before 30 April 2017 or purchased from cash donations made before 30 April 2017).
