Trustees’ Annual Report for the period

From 01/01/2024 Period start date To 31/12/2024 Period end date

Charity name: Grassroots Global

Charity registration number: 1178829

Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	1) To advance the Christian faith across the nations by carrying out missionary and outreach work and partnering with other organisations who share this purpose. 2) To prevent and relieve poverty across the nations by fundraising and provision of items for people in need, partnering with organisations in other nations as necessary to achieve this goal. 3) To promote education across the nations to enhance life prospects by partnering with organisations in other nations, who provide educational opportunities, especially to disadvantaged communities
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	During 2024, the charity was able to undertake increased activities in relation to its charitable purposes, due to the improved medical situation of one of its co- founders and Trustees, Carol Maw, for which we are very thankful. The main activities undertaken involved overseas trips by Carol and Alan Maw, to maintain existing overseas partnerships and to explore the possibility of establishing new partnerships. 1) During May, at the end of a personal holiday to Peru, Carol and Alan visited Iglesia Vina la Molina (a Vineyard Church plant in Lima) and were guests of the pastor Rodrigo Parada and the church for the day. This church already has a link to Hull Vineyard Church, so it was a great opportunity to talk about future possibilities of taking a team out to Peru in forthcoming years to support

		the projects the Lima church wishes to develop. 2) During October, Carol and Alan re- visited Romania to at last meet up in person with the ministries Grassroots Global has supported now for a decade. Time was spent with the Community Centre children’s ministry in Medgidia, which now operates as Centrul Comunitar Medgidia, a Romanian charity. We spent substantial time with the new director Corina Arnautu to discuss again taking a UK team out to Romania in 2025, to give mission opportunity and support the Romanian based team. 3) During the same trip as above, we also spent time with Cindy Getchman, the president of Stepping Stone Missions, whose focus in Romania is now the Safe House Project,Casa Nissi. Grassroots Global has, alongside many others, fundraised and supported the building of this property for many years, so it was fantastic to visit the nearly completed property and see how it was going to be such a vital resource in the future, saving young girls from being sold into prostitution and from human trafficking. All of the above projects and ministries are centred on the Christian faith. This is the ultimate motivation for why the people we have the privilege to partner with, do what they do, in devoting their lives to the great needs of marginalised people. This is the DNA of Grassroots Global and why we exist.
Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit	Para 1.18	The trustees always consider the Commission’s guidance on public benefit. Within the scope of our purposes, we would give regard to public benefit by; a) Giving Christians from local churches in our home city Hull, the opportunity to participate in short term mission, so that they were able to practically help people less fortunate than themselves in another country and demonstrate God's love in a practical way.

b) Supporting the overseas partner organisation, so that they receive resources and support from the UK and a supply of people to assist with their work on a short-term basis.

Additional information (optional)

You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:

	SORP reference
Policy on grant making	Para 1.38	Grassroots Global is a small charity which does not have a policy on grant making nor does it participate in any grant making activities.
Policy on social investment including program related investment	Para 1.38	Grassroots Global does not have a policy on Social Investment.
Contribution made by volunteers	Para 1.38	As a charity, everything Grassroots Global undertakes is on a voluntary basis. Two of the trustees, Alan and Carol Maw manage the activities undertaken to fulfil the charity’s purposes during their spare time, as both are in employment elsewhere. Other volunteers contribute enormously to the project by giving of their time and finances to participate in mission trips and to also take part in the charity’s fundraising activities at home. During 2024 we did not give any volunteers an opportunity to engage in short-term mission overseas as the activities outlined earlier in the report were focussed on building relationships with overseas partners, to enable volunteers to engage in short-term missions in forthcoming years.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
	Para 1.20	1) Overseas Partner Financial Support Operating as a charity allowed Grassroots Global to facilitate charitable giving to our overseas partners, by individuals who want to financially support organisations such a Stepping Stone Missions. During 2024 we received £800 of donations as a charity which we were able to forward on whilst also gaining the advantage of claiming Gift Aid on these donations. In May, we also made a £100 gift to Hull Vineyard Church to support the overseas mission trip to Bolivia and Peru in June 24. This aligned with our hearts for South America and our own ventures in developing links on that continent for future Grassroots Global mission trips. 2) Partnership Relationships As already mentioned earlier in the report, the main achievements of 2024 were our partnership trips to Romania and Lima, Peru, to maintain and develop relationships to enable future activities in relation to our charitable objectives. 3) Promotion of partnering charities via social media. We always share the news of our partnering organisations as much as possible. Whilst it is not always possible to measure the impact that has on various audiences here in the U.K. it undoubtedly raises the profile both of Grassroots Global and our partners, which contributes to people engaging in the activities we organise.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period	Para 1.21	The charity made a small loss of £164 during 2024 and held Assets of £3,861 at the Year End 31stDecember 2024. The assets shown in the charity Balance Sheet are now exclusively cash based.

Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held	Para 1.22	The charity does not have a specific policy on holding reserves, however, within the current small scale of our operations, there is the objective of seeing the charity’s reserves maintained at the current level so we have an ongoing healthy financial position.
