Summa r y of the objects of the cha r ity set out in its gove r ning d ocument

The objects of the CIO a re

For the public beneft, the relief and assistance of people in Uganda, who a re in need by reason of youth, age, ill-health, disability, fnancial hardship o r other disadvantage; in particular but not exclusively by a) improving community facilities such as schools and basic services, b) p roviding basic items such as clothing and books, c) assisting in the p rovision of e ducation, t raining, healthcare p rojects and all the necessary support designed to enable individuals to generate a sustainable income and be self-sufcient.

Summa r y of the main activities un d e r taken fo r the public beneft in r elation to these objects (inclu d e within this section the statuto r y d ecla r ation that r t ustees have ha d r ega rd to the gui d ance issue d by the Cha r ity Commission on public beneft)

In our third year, we have continued to focus on work that improves the quality of life for children and the wider community in the village of Kasozi, near Kayabwe in the central region of Uganda. This is a very poor community, which has been sufering f rom a lack of clean water, a lack of food and very limited de ucation opportunities. We have decided to focus on making a big diference in one community rather than spreading ourselves too thinly working across a larger ra ea.

We confrm the t rustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public beneft.

Section D Achievements and performance During the year, we successfully delivered more small scale Summa r y of the main projects focussed ra ound improving wellbeing, facilities and achievements of the opportunities in the community. cha r ity d u r ing the yea r At the end of the p revious fnancial year, we had completed a project to install a water well with a concrete base and hand pump, next to the Mosque where we also carried out some repair work. The well continues to p rovide clean water for over 100 homes and the local community leaders have fed back to us that this is having a very positive impact, not just in terms of health but also saving women and girls many hours of t ravelling to fetch water and ra g eater feeling of safety. We continued to make repairs to local facilities such as the primary school in Kasozi. We held events to b ring together the community such as hosting a football and netball tournament, which attracted rc owds of thousands and was followed by a celebration with food, dancing and rg eat joy. While we do not plan to get involved in responding to disasters and emergencies, we were moved to do so in late 2019, when we heard about the mudslides in Eastern Uganda. Several landslides were t riggered by heavy rain, killing at least 16 people and displacing whole communities with many families left without homes, food, water and other essentials. We realised that with our contacts on the g round and our ability to react quickly, we could rp ovide d ri ect support to these families immediately, p roviding food, water and clothing, while they waited to be reached with longer term support f rom the Government and/or large NGOs. Then, just a few months later the Covid pandemic struck, which made it difcult for us to fundraise and to t ravel, but more importantly Uganda’s national shutdown made life even more difcult for people in the communities of Kasozi, Kayabwe and Ngando, who were fearful they would die of hunger rather than the virus. We p rovided basic foods such as maize four, rice and beans in bulk that could be used by families to get through this difcult time. Future plans In the next year, we aim to continue fundraising in the UK to fund low-cost, high impact p rojects in Kasozi. We will continue to focus on improving e ducation opportunities for children and supporting their learning by improving facilities in the community. We will continue to work with the community to i dentify their long term needs and how we can best work together to improve the life chances of the children. As the children currently do not have a secondary school they can attend, this is an issue we a re looking into in more detail.
