In our fourth 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 suffering from a lack of clean water, a lack of food and very limited education opportunities. We have decided to focus on making a big difference in one community rather than spreading ourselves too thinly working across a larger area.
We confirm the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
During the year, we successfully delivered more small scale projects focussed around improving health, wellbeing, facilities and opportunities in the community.
Future plans
In the next year, we aim to continue fundraising in the UK to fund lowcost, high impact projects in Kasozi. We will continue to focus on improving education opportunities for children and supporting their learning by improving facilities in the community.
We will continue to work with the community to identify 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 are looking into in more detail but this would need a much larger scale of funding.
