				l)We have established a school in the area of

				running for about 6years. It is a 5 classroom

benefits	to society as a whole.			We are slowly improving resources and
				facilities, which include computer classes,
				internet and more use ofspoken English. We
				have now begun extra classes to teach children
				computer skills and sewing.
				We are also improving basic classroom facilities
				-which includes boundary walls, toilet facilities,
				cooling system and cold drinking water .
				This has been our main focus throughout this
				period as we wish to make a real impact into the
				lives ofpeople.
				We have established on-line learning-mostly	to
				improve understanding ofEnglish and its
				practical use. This is basically a set up ofa
				media screen in one ofthe classrooms and
				allowing children to access formal English
				learning lessons .
				Post pandemic, we are working closely with
				local educational officers to follow guidelines
				with opening/closing times, as well as any other
				restrictions advised.
				2) As in previous years, we continue to feed
				around 150-200 people once a month -the food,
				ready cooked by a local vendor, for which we
				pay, is brought onto the school premises where
				it is distributed to the children and any local
				poor person.
				We continue to provide food parcels aswell as
				cooked food to those we have identified as being
				needy, in the locality. We try to maintain and
				update our list ofpoor families.

3)We work closely with other charities—
previously we worked with KADECT (British
based charity) however as their functioning
gradually winded down, we have selected
another British based charity which supports
children with hearing and speech impairment	in
a place called Baffa, Mansehra, in the district	of
KPK, Pakistan.
4)Animal sanctuary and support remain on our
agenda ofthings to do. Current economic and
political environment ofthe country restrict us
from proceeding further.
5) we have purchased dialysis machines and
sent them over— six machines have now
reached Pakistan and are in storage. We are
working closely with local nursing and medical
teams to try and establish a Dialysis centre.
,We are in discussion with Medics/Technicians
and have chosen a site in the city ofHaripur for
the setting up ofthis Dialysis centre. However
progression is very slow-as we are unable to
locate a suitable site-and the current socio-
economic climate do not allow movement at
any considerable speed unfortunately.
Some progress has been made since last year-
we currently have a verbal agreement with a
Doctor and Technician, and are aiming to have
written agreement's in place by Sept 2024.A
location has been selected for the new Dialysis
Centre .
