-
The objects of the Trust are: The relief of sickness and the preservation and protection of health, in particular by giving financial support to institutions, organisations, or groups in East Africa which are undertaking research into, treatment of, and prevention of cancer.
-
The charitable donations made were all directed towards payment for the treatment of cancer patients in Kenya, and meet the “public benefit” duty of the Trustees. As a result of these payments many cancer victims, especially women, received treatment which would not have been available otherwise.
-
This was achieved by working with Cancer Research Trust - Kenya, a Kenyan registered charity (no. PS1423). Three of the Trustees of LCT are founding Trustees of CRT-K and have control over the utilisation of these payments in Kenya.
-
LCT is funded by donations by private individuals. Its bankers are Reliance Bank, London. Payments to Africa were made within the regulated banking system to National Bank of Kenya.
-
Decisions are made collectively by all Trustees. The Trustees have all the documents and information needed to fulfil their operational, legal, and regulatory duties. The technical and professional expertise of the Trustees ensures that awards of grants are fully and efficiently evaluated, and that risks are minimised as far as possible.
-
The future plans of LCT are to continue the same work. CRT-K has established its own specialist cancer Hospital in Nairobi, and in 2023 acquired the freehold to its site, and this Secures and extends the ways in which LCT can achieve its objectives and deliver public benefit. Collaboration with Memusi Foundation, a charity who have schools in Africa, has widened the Hospital’s outreach activities, bringing health education to many more children and their mothers,
-
The cash balance is the only asset of LCT. The Trustees consider that neither an audit nor an independent examination are required for 2025. , Accounts approved by the Trustees on the L as Shon] 2026 Signed: é A Le[its K Cholerton, Chairman Date: ©!| Te
