## **Trustees annual report to Charity Commission – Wanjawulo April 2021 to March 2022** In April 2021, the world was beginning to look a bit more open and the volunteers and trustees of Wanjawulo started to focus on making a new trip to Wanjawulo to assess the damage caused by Covid to the community and to the buildings on the site. The landowner had visited and was confident of structural integrity but the trustees were keen to see things for themselves. However, this soon became little more than a pipe dream as Covid continued to ravage the African nations and little comfort was being drawn from the increasingly questionable vaccination program spreading across Uganda. With second and third lockdowns happening in Uganda and the UK and then the unsettling nature of the Ugandan general election, we were forced to stop visits from the Ugandan team once again and ‘sit and wait’ for the upheaval to cease. All the while maintaining a close eye on the progress of our colleagues in the bigger Iganga and Jinja charities. This continued upheaval in Uganda made us even more certain that the only real future for Wanjawulo lies in the hands of finding an umbrella organisation ‘on the ground’ that we can link with and make more secure future plans with. Suddenly the distance between Uganda and the UK has felt vaster than ever and we are struggling to negotiate movements for our Ugandan team because of their lack of proximity to Busu themselves. Our 2 aims for Wanjawulo during this year were: - to re-establish visits to Busu by Ugandan team - to formalise links with bigger charities in Iganga and Jinja to discuss further support links We were finally able to re-establish travel for Winnie and Geoffrey in March 2022 and they made a trip to the village to provide a linking session for the families, bringing everyone back together and establishing what have been the main impacts for the families of the lock and tumultuous journey that has been Covid. What was reassuring for this visit was that all of the children registered to the charity were seen by Winnie and Geoffrey and they all wanted Wanjawulo back up and running in a more positive manner. On a more positive note, having the CAF bank account has allowed us to be much more clear in our banking and it’s been great to have a more structured approach to the finances of the charity. This will lead us in good stead to proceed with more visits in the upcoming months. Our aims for the charity in the new year are: - to continue to provide visits from Winnie and Geoffrey where possible - to form better links with Musana so that the prospect of merging can become a real possibility www.wanjawulo.org.uk Registered charity number 1176553 wanjawulo@outlook.com ## Wanjawulo Financial Summary 2021/20 **Balance Carried Over Balance at Close Date Amount** 04/05/2021 £ 1,541.00 £ 1,523.88 **----- Start of picture text -----**
