Achievements against objectives set.

Over 40 coaches were recruited for the Stop Online Sexual Abuse and Exploitation of Children (StopOSAEC) project, exceeding the 20 coaches initially targeted (Note: Actual number of active coaches may exceed 40 since junior coaches are participating until such time when they will be recognised as senior coaches).

Financial Review and Financial Statement

The Charity fully implemented and conducted the StopOSAEC program and exceeded its targeted communities. In the UK, the Refugee Program continued to gain ground and was recognised by local as well as international organisations. The year used up most of its funding of 2021 and 2022. Therefore, 2023 will have to bring in more funds to meet our objectives.
