Structure, governance, objectives and management.

This charity's governing instrument is a Constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (Foundation Structure whose only voting members are its Trustees) dated 31 May 2017. The charity was registered at the Charity Commission on 26 July 2017.The objectives of the charity are (1) To relieve sickness and preserve the health of patients of Kibogora Hospital Rwanda and (2) to advance the education of Students at Kibogora Polytechnic, Rwanda, in each case by providing grants for the provision of facilities, support services and equipment.

Trustees Annual Report

The first project of the charity is supporting fundraising for a new Maternity Ward at Kibogora Hospital. Construction is now under way and we have been supporting the hospital by liaising with Rwandan colleagues in reviewing plans for the project that help ensure that the project is viable, sustainable, meets building requirements, and aligns with Ministry of Health District and National Plans. We have also supported the hospital to liaise with the State Minister of Health responsible for Primary Care at the Ministry of Health Rwanda regarding future funding, staffing and equipment needs.

We have been grateful to Nyamasheke District for assistance with some of the groundworks and excavation of the site which, at the time of writing has been completed.Most of the structural support walls for this hilly site are now in place, and we are hopful of being able to start on the structure itself by late Spring.

Review of Community Benefit

Details of the project are ouitlined in the Business Plan for the new ward, and the crucial impact it will have on the health and wellbeing of the patients of Kibogora Hospital, and the 254,000 population of Nyamasheke District it serves.

Review of risk management and financial performance

The key risks are in the payments to the project, that work has been properly done, and money transferred is followed through to the project. The mechanisms for dealing with these issues are set out in Sections 11-13 of the Business Plan.

Approved by the Board of Trustees on 7th April 2021 and signed on their behalf.

Registered Charity 1173959

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Action Kibogora

I report on the accounts for the period to 31 March 2021 which are set out on page 4

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's trustees consider an audit is not required this year under requirement of S144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The 2011 Act) and that an Independent Examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to a) examine the Accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act

b)to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act:

c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent Examiner's Report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required for an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view', and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent Examiner's Report

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respects the requirements

have not been met or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

(Original signed and held by the Trustees in accordance with Charity Commission guidelines)
