The Kenyan trustees revised the operating costs to £512 per month.
In the financial year ending 31st December 2023 TMC received a total of £17,543.86 from Tumaini UK. We decided to build accommodation quarters that would serve to accommodate future volunteers. Continued expenses were our TMC staff- a nurse, lab tech, caretaker and a volunteer administrator. We continue to model our ministry on generosity and volunteering.
**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)**
We closed from July to December to enable us to chart a better way forward in terms of the staff and services offered, to attend to repairs and reorganise our operations. We hosted a successful 3 day seminar on smart farming, teaching 30 local mums in liaison with Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action in September 2023. We also hosted 70 youth for 2 days of learning and interaction, for a seminar covering faith and spirituality, peer pressure, FGM and GBV.
We continue to reach out to the community, needy families in the spirit of Tumaini to develop TMC to a community hub offering health, social and pastoral services. The most common ailments we continue to treat are respiratory, gastrointestinal infections, minor injuries and also management of chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension and musculoskeletal conditions.
