REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 2 to the accounts and comply with the charity's declaration of trust and the Charities Act 2011. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

The Issue

Oral diseases are a significant health issue and part of the rising burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). It is reported that more than 480 million people were estimated to suffer from some form of oral diseases in Africa in 2019. Those living in remote and rural communities are disproportionately impacted by poor oral health. For almost two decades Bridge2Aid has focused on helping these communities by implementing preventative care and pain relief training.

Bridge2Aid

Bridge2Aid is a small UK based training charity. Our work is carried out through partnerships with community health workers, dentists, dental associations and governments in Africa where we train people in oral health promotion, oral health education and training in emergency dental treatment. Our work is focused on deprived communities - especially remote and rural ones.

We focus on these communities because these are the areas where the problem is worst. There is an extremely low level of oral health literacy, so communities are often unaware of even basic health behaviours, or information such as the link between dietary sugars and dental caries. There is also very little access (if any) to any kind of dental treatment. These left behind communities need to be given the tools and knowledge to become stronger and more resilient, which is where we come in. Through listening and developing training specific to the needs of the community we can ensure that the training we deliver is always appropriate and effective.

Our training focusses on the existing healthcare workers serving these remote areasmedical assistants, nurses, clinical officers. We support local partners to develop and deliver cascade training models for sharing oral health promotion messages. We work with local partners to deliver education in oral health promotion directly in their communities. We train local dentists to train rural healthcare workers in OUT (Oral Urgent Treatment).

In 2020 a strategy was approved by the Trustees aiming shift focus to 4 key areas in the existing strategy:

4 - To continue to build new networks and champion positive change in the field of rural and remote healthcare.

2022 has seen a continuation and development of this strategy. We have continued to work towards a model where most of our training is delivered by African dentists and health workers. In working to empower our colleagues and partners in East Africa by putting them at the centre of our training, we are also able to expand our training in prevention and pain relief.

Key achievements

The completion and roll-out of a raft of digital training modules for Dental Therapists in Malawi. Developed and delivered in partnership with Malawian Dental Association, Maldent, Smileawi, ProDental and the Malawian Ministry of Health and partially funded by the Scottish Government. The modules were finished by March of 2021 and the rollout to the Dental Therapists took place into early 2022. Feedback from the Dental Therapists and the Malawian Dental Association was excellent, and engagement was very high. Some of the training modules were specific to community engagement and training.

The next step was to engage the newly upskilled Dental Therapists as trainers for community oral health champions. To this end Bridge2Aid and our partners began discussions with the Malawian Red Cross volunteer network to deliver training to their rural volunteers. The training began in earnest, in the early part of the year, and during 2022 and into early 2023, 25 Dental Therapists were involved in training 90 oral health champions in rural Northern Malawi. These champions, in turn, have been conducting oral health training sessions in their communities, with some developing “teeth clubs” in their local schools.

Infant Oral Mutilation had been highlighted to us by our partners as a pressing problem in East Africa. This is the practice of removing the unerupted developing canine teeth of infants (usually under 3 years old). This practice is carried out by traditional healers, usually with no anaesthetic, and using unsterilized implements, often a sharpened bicycle spoke. It is dangerous and painful, and brings serious risks to the children who undergo the treatment.

This year Bridge2Aid worked with the Sibaba Clinic (based in Mara, Tanzania), the Tanzanian Chief Dental Officer and the Global Child Dental Fund to develop a community level training programme to dispel common myths about this practice, and to change attitudes. The aim being to end this practice for good. The Tanzanian Chief Dental Officer has identified 12 regions (with a combined population of over 26 million) where the practice is endemic. We piloted this work in 2021, and then rolled it out in Northern Tanzania in 2022. We carried our evaluation visits 3 and 6 months after training and there had been a significant change in beliefs and attitudes around the practice.

Bridge2Aid contributed to ongoing workshops with the World Health Organisation and Harvard University to work towards developing a comprehensive eTraining course on Oral Health for community health workers. This work began in 2021 and carried on into 2022.

Up until recently Bridge2Aid’s work has been focused in low-income countries, but we are aware that there are rapidly growing issues of health inequality in the UK. We were approached in early 2022 by Bristol Dental School to see if we could work with their students on community engagement. We suggested that one of the programmes we were running in Malawi could be adapted for the UK. Both parties signed an initial 4 year partnership agreement to work together to identify local areas of need and develop training programmes for dental students to act as community educators

Bridge2Aid will be working alongside the Bristol Dental School students through the first four years of their education. During these four years there will be sessions where we explore the left-behind and under-served communities in the city, and link this to Bristol Dental School's vision for outreach and strengthening links to the community. We will use this as a platform to deepen and develop these community relationships.

The work will look at local oral health epidemiology and identify a local group that would benefit from specific training intervention (for example care homes, nurseries, homeless shelters or refugees). We will then work with the students and stakeholders from the identified groups to develop training specific to the context. The people that we will train will act as oral health champions in that community - promoting oral health and sharing information specific to that community. At the same time students will be learning about the specific challenges that face communities in their city, as well as learning how to deliver Oral Health Promotion training to large and diverse groups.

Looking Forward

The trustees are very positive about the plans for 2023. Our key aims for this year will be:

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Results for the year

Our Initial aim for this financial year was to continue to build up our reserves to a healthy level, which we succeeded in doing. With donors, and charitable trusts and foundations still being severely affected by the COVID pandemic it seemed inevitable that we would see income hit. Correspondingly we saw a further drop from an income of £169,857 in 2021, to £144,981 in 2022. Our expenditure also increased from £109,426 in 2021 to £164,826 in 2022 – due to an increase in activity. We ended the year carrying over £43,981 in unrestricted income and £24,577 in restricted income to be spent on projects in 2023.

Although our expenditure increased, year on year, it is still significantly lower than in 2019 and 2020. Our success in keeping our expenditure down, was due to working in innovative ways that were more cost effective, mainly through an expansion of our online training programmes and in person training carried out by partner organisations in East Africa, which have proved to be far less costly than the previous method of sending volunteers from the UK to do face-to-face training in-country.

We increased our grant fundraising and were able to raise enough income to run the planned programmes in 2022.

Reserves Policy 2022

Our reserves policy is set to ensure that our work is protected from the risk of disruption at short notice due to a lack of funds, whilst at the same time ensuring that we do not retain income for longer than required. The trustees have determined that the Charity needs free reserves for the following purposes:

• To ensure the charity has enough income to cover wind-down costs – including 3 months fixed costs and redundancy payments.

Bridge2Aid Annual Report and Accounts December 2022

Doc ID: 77db1a4116382e36e35bf98eda099b2cfd5aa706

Based on the above policy, the trustees calculated that a desirable level of free reserves as of 1[st] January 2022 would be £38,000. It was decided that if free reserves exceed £90,000, Bridge2Aid will plan to utilise these funds to further our charitable activities.

Major Financial Developments Post Year-End

At the time of writing this report (October 2023), there have been major changes at the charity. Due to a downturn in unrestricted funding from January to June 2023, the trustees identified material uncertainty arising from financial risk. Full disclosure of this risk can be found in note 2 to the Financial Statements. Having identified this, they decided to take action to safeguard the future of the charity and to be able to continue to run projects to support people around the world living in dental pain with little or no access to care. The major change was to move to a volunteer-led model for the foreseeable future, thus hugely reducing core costs and eradicating salary costs. They are confident that based on forward projections of the next 12 months and the continued support of the Bridge2Aid community, the charity can continue and grow.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The charity was established by a Declaration of Trust dated 29th January 2002 and Supplementary Declaration of Trust dated 12th May 2002. A Deed of Variation of Trust was subsequently made dated 11 July 2005. We became registered as a charitable incorporated organisation on 6[th] December 2016, which lay dormant until we transferred our operation from our charity to our CIO in January 2019.

Governance

The Trustees meet at least 4 times a year to approve the strategy, and review the finances, policy and governance of the charity. Day to day implementation and management is delegated to the CEO and Senior Leadership Team. During the beginning of the pandemic the Trustees had several extraordinary meetings to discuss how the organisation needed to address the issues thrown up.

The Trustees who served during the year are listed on page 3. New Trustees are appointed to expand the existing skills of the board as necessary by a resolution of the majority of existing Trustees.

There are no conflicts of interests within the Trustee Board.

New trustees are inducted both formally and informally. This includes meetings with the Chair and Chief Executive in advance of their first trustees meeting. They are also supplied with information from the Charity Commission concerning best practice and advice for new trustees. We also carry out a skills audit.

We are committed to conducting business in an ethical and honest manner, and are committed to implementing and enforcing systems that ensure bribery is prevented. We have zero-tolerance for bribery and corrupt activities. We are committed to acting professionally, fairly, and with integrity in all business dealings and relationships, wherever in the country we operate.

We will constantly uphold all laws relating to anti-bribery and corruption in all the jurisdictions in which we operate. We are bound by the laws of the UK, including the Bribery Act 2010, in regards to our conduct both at home and abroad.

Doc ID: 77db1a4116382e36e35bf98eda099b2cfd5aa706

We recognise that bribery and corruption are punishable by up to ten years of imprisonment and a fine. If our organisation is discovered to have taken part in corrupt activities, we may be subjected to an unlimited fine and face serious damage to our reputation. It is with this in mind that we commit to preventing bribery and corruption in our business, and take our legal responsibilities seriously.

Management Responsibilities

From January 2022 to July 2022, the Senior Leadership Team consisted of Shaenna Loughnane (CEO), Paul Tasman (Operations Manager) and Keith Du-Rose (Financial Controller). After July 2022, Paul Tasman stepped into the role of CEO, and his contract ended in September 2023.

Our Clinical Advisory Group - who are all volunteers, and who have been regular leaders on our programmes in Tanzania, give clinical advice.

There is an Advisory Board from different sections of the dental industry.

There were a further 4 part-time staff in the UK.

The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually. In view of the nature of the charity, the trustees benchmark against pay levels in other charities of a similar size and wherever possible aim to set remuneration levels at an average of the range paid for similar roles.

Bridge2Aid Notes to the financial statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022

1 General information

Bridge2Aid is a charity, established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 6[th] December 2016. The address of the registered office is provided in the Reference and Administrative details. Details of the charity’s operations are provided in the Report of the Trustees.

2 Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Basis of preparation

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. The accounts include the results of the charity's operations which are described in the Trustees' Report, all of which are continuing.

Fund accounting policy

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 13.

Income

Voluntary income including donations and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised where there is entitlement, it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. Gifts and services in kind are included at their estimated open market valuation.

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received.

Volunteer help

The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

Doc ID: 77db1a4116382e36e35bf98eda099b2cfd5aa706

Bridge2Aid Notes to the financial statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022

Costs of raising funds are the costs associated with attracting voluntary income.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Governance and support costs

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

Debtors

Debtors (including trade debtors) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.

Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the closing rates at the balance sheet date and the exchange differences are included in the statement of financial activities.

Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its employees.

Going Concern

The Balance Sheet status of the Charity has deteriorated after the date of these Financial Statements such that the Trustees believe the Charity is subject to material financial risk. However, the Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that the budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern. This assessment has been made after careful consideration of the forward projections outlined in the Trustees Report following the transition to a more volunteer-led model for the foreseeable future, as well as consultation with the Charity’s donors.
