Some films that are valuable historic documents for the Anglican Church arKI peoples of PNG are being transfeed to DVD and will gradually be uploaded to our website. son piclure books were given to a I(1 library and our plant based artefacts have been offered to the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew. The Trustees and wder Committee met four times during the year. Three Newsletters were produced for UK SuPpr$ and shared with ACPNG arKI thair other overseas partner agencies. The Newsletter is prcmduced in email fonnat and as a hard pY since several of our supporter group have indicated they prefer this. The Charity has an active website and Facebook page. We receive Newsletters from ACPNG Ihat are dislributed online to supfftrs and frtends. Currently there are no PNGCP sponsored personnel from the UK worklng Vth ACPNG. In August three TnteeS plus the Executive Officer of the NoNc Link went to PNG for the Partners, Meeting held at Newton TheolchJi(al College (C) and lebration of the 75th Anniversary of Martyis. Secondary School in Popondetta. The Partners. Meeb'ng is held so that mission partners that support ACPNG can come together to discuss what they are doing. This was an oppiKtunty to meet with repres8ritatives from the Anglican Church of Australia, the AnglIn Board of Mission (Australia), the Anglican DioTrse of Waiarmj (NZ) and the Williams Memorial Trust (NZ) plus Di{eSan Bishops, stsff from the National Otrice and the Prin(ipal at NTC from ACPNG.

In September a SuppKlrters' Meeting was held at the Anglican communic Office {ACO). Three brothers from the Society of Sl Francis (SSF) who were in England following a Conference were able to join us. Br Christopher John, the Minister General of SSF swike about hi5 recent visit to PNG. He raised COnmS that few Brothers were joining and the Friary buildings were in need of major repairs and upgrading over the next few years. It had been agreed that iwo Brothers from the Solomon Islands would go to PNG to join the Chaplaincy Team at Martyrs, Secondary Sthool (MSS) when their accommodation has been sorled OUL A communion seNice was held in the Chapel and aft lunch a film about Dogura was shown and a video of MSS students singing at the Celebration Eucharist and other video clips of the event. Financial Review and Reserves Policy At the end of the year our reserves (unrestricted funds) were £72.256. (2022 £80,805). Our reserves policy requires us to carry reserves sufficient to safeguard costs of any staff. In addition, the Trustees ex)nsider it prudenl that unrestricted funds should be sufficient to provide one year's operating expenses. During 2023, £5,958 was spent on administration plus £6,400 for the Trustees travel to PNG. but we believe we hold more than sufficient reserves to safeguard the needs of PNGCP. Plans for future periods We plan to continue sending money to the knglican prr4ects, parishes and Dioceses of PNG in 2024. We will continue to develop our website arKJ our Facebook page. to in(xease our profile and knowledge of our work. We will continue our promotional activities within the UK and it is anticipated that we will initiate a programme to welcome and support a member of ACPNG staff on a personal development visit to the UK.
