1. Message from the MD (Rich)
The past year has been one of real progress and growing impact for Jangala. Building on the foundation of our Vision for 2030, we have continued to scale our work, re�ne our technologies, and deepen our relationships with the communities and partners who make this mission possible.
In 2024/25, we deployed more Big Boxes than ever before, delivered thousands of Get Boxes across the UK, and advanced Big Box Vl development to begin live testing across 25 global sites. The Our Community Wi-Fi programme marked an exciting new direction for our UK work, embedding public Wi-Fi into trusted community spaces. We also published Digital Lifelines, a report that brings together powerful insights from partners and end users and reinforces our belief that connectivity is not just useful, it is essential.
Underlying these achievements is a commitment to adapt, learn and grow. From software dashboards and accessible user guides to remote locking features and partner support, our work is more partner and user-focused than ever. This year, we have also refreshed how we support our people internally, aligning our teams more closely around shared goals and launching a new set of behaviours to help bring our values to life.
We are proud of what we have achieved, but we are just as aware of the challenges ahead. As the digital divide grows more complex, so too must our response. That is why we are continuing to invest in innovation, strengthen our partnerships, and evolve our approach to measuring impact.
Thank you to all who have contributed to our journey this year. Whether you have supported our work, deployed our technology, or partnered with us on the ground -your belief in our mission drives everything we do.
Rich Thanki
Managing Director
2. About Jangala
Jangala is a UK-based technology charity working to end digital exclusion by enabling internet access for those who need it most. Our goal is to connect four million people by 2030, with a focus on empowering schools, clinics, and community organisations around the world.
Founded in 2018, our work began by bringing Wi-Fi to over 5,000 people in the Calais Jungle refugee camp. Since then, we have grown into a globally recognised organisation known for our innovative connectivity solutions and long-standing partnerships with grassroots organisations, humanitarian actors, and public bodies.
At the heart of our work is a commitment to equalising access to technology. We recognise the digital divide as both a global and local issue and work across diverse settings, from conflict zones to UK cities, to build systems that are inclusive, resilient, and easy to use.

JANGALA LTD
(A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
Our products include Big Box, designed for large-scale and off-grid deployments, and Get Box, a compact solution for households. Our new Cloud Platform brings these tools together, helping people stay connected during crises, displacement, or economic hardship.
As an independent, non-governmental charity, we believe connectivity is a basic need, and we are proud to be building the technology and partnerships to help make that a reality.
3. Highlights of 2024/2025
Connecting More People Than Ever Before
In 2024/25, Jangala deployed the highest number of its technology solutions to date. This included more than 80 Big Boxes to connect schools, clinics, and community centres across the world, including particular growth of our programmes in Kenya and Sudan through partnerships with the International Organisation for Migration and UNICEF Sudan. In addition, we signi�cantly scaled our programme work in the UK, deploying 2,000 Get Boxes to connect digitally excluded people, through more than 80 partners ranging from sector leading Local Authorities to tiny village halls.
The Get Box programme has been recognised as a leading innovation to address digital poverty. We also re�ned our impact measurement, shifting to more accurate, usage-based estimates. These milestones reflect the growing demand for our technology and the strength of our expanding network of partners.
Our Community Wi-Fi
This year saw the launch of Our Community Wi-Fi, our �rst UK-based Big Box initiative. With support from Virgin Media 02, we will begin deploying 40 Big Boxes to community hubs, libraries, and drop-in centres across the UK. Public Wi-Fi - or 'community Wi-Fi' with an intentional goal of providing a social provision - is an under-explored avenue for tackling the digital divide in the UK. Essential services and community initiatives across the country are also being delivered in spaces which do not have reliable broadband connectivity or the temporary, mobile, or outdoor spaces in which they are being provided are not conducive to �xed broadband.
This place-based model complements our household-focused Get Box programme, offering a new approach to tackling the digital divide by embedding connectivity within trusted community spaces. Big Boxes will provide reliable public Wi-Fi for people experiencing digital exclusion and impacted by data poverty, from asylum seekers and refugees and families living in areas of high social deprivation to those in supported housing or facing �nancial hardship, as well as the front-line community organisations that support them.
Big Box Version 1 Development and ISOC BOLT Grant
We were awarded a prestigious Internet Society Foundation BOLT Grant to support the �nal stages of Big Box Version 1 development, our next-generation device. We will manufacture 30 pilot units and launch �eld trials across 25 global sites, from schools and shelters to displacement camps.
The new version of our Big Box includes features that address common challenges faced by schools and community centres, refugee camps and grassroots activity across the world. With multi-SIM support, solar-ready power, and enhanced Wi-Fi 6 and SG capabilities, Big Box Vl is going to be more adaptable to the challenging contexts in which our partners operate. Feedback from these trials is directly shaping the �nal product, due for full-scale production in 2026.
Digital Lifelines: Spotlighting the Impact of Internet for People Living in Temporary Accommodation
This year we published Digital Lifelines: How Wi-Fi Impacts the Lives of People in Temporary Accommodation in the UK, an evaluation of a pilot project offering free Get Boxes to people living in temporary accommodation in Coventry, UK. The pilot and report, conducted in partnership with Virgin Media 02, the National Databank and Coventry City Council highlighted the common barriers that people living in temporary accommodation face in accessing the internet, that Get Box is well-suited to addressing many of those barriers and demonstrated that service users with a Get Box experienced improvements in emotional well-being, empowerment and vital connection.

JANGALA LTD (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
More than 130,000 households in the UK live in temporary accommodation, including a record high number of children. The �ndings of the report were presented at a launch event, have informed debate on digital inclusion in the House of Lords and have resulted in direct improvements to the programme.
Product Improvements Guided by User Feedback
We introduced a range of enhancements based on user and partner insight, including multilingual setup guides in French, Spanish and Arabic, Braille and large-print instructions, accessible video guides, and improved remote support.
A new data usage checker for Get Box was added which enables end users to check now much data they have left for the rest of the month. Remote locking functionality was also added for Big Box in response to the volatile security contexts where some of our global partners are operating. Accessibility drives everything we do at Jangala and this is reflected in feedback we receive from partners:
"[Get Boxes] really ore so very easy to set up and operate which makes a big difference when helping someone who is digitally excluded or needs support to get online. A lot of thought has clearly gone into making them accessible including a simple set up guide and easy to use balance checker for the device" UK Housing Association.
4. Jangala Connects
Expanding Global Impact
This was a year of scale and progress. We deployed 82 Big Boxes globally - a 44% increase on last year, including our largest deployment to date with the International Organization for Migration in Kenya, supported with funding from the World Food Programme. New countries of deployment include Ethiopia, Thailand, Burundi, and the US.
An important focus this year has been on ensuring the sustainability of our Big Box partnerships and technology usage by understanding the reasons why Big Boxes become inactive. We conducted analysis on the patterns of Big Boxes in use, uncovering key barriers such as power access, mobile data costs, and technical complexity. These insights are now informing how we support partners long term.
We have also been testing and learning at a small scale on the value that Get Box can offer to our global partners. Through our partnership with Soronko Academy in Ghana, we deployed 25 units to women in remote communities so that they can learn from home.
Partners across regions continue to highlight the impact of our technology. In DRC, a local partner shared:
"We really soy thank you. Even our neighbours at the of�ce testify to being helped by a good connection, which allows them to stay in touch with family during this political and humanitarian crisis."
In Uganda's Bidi Bidi settlement, Big Box powered ICT training that led to job opportunities and digital archiving:
"One of our participants applied for a job online and was hired. They'll be paid at the end of the month."
In France, long-term partner Roots said:
"We're really pleased to have access to Jangala - it's helping so many people - it's a lifeline."
Growing our UK Programmes
With Virgin Media O2's support, we delivered over 2,000 Get Boxes through our national initiative. After early delays, deployment accelerated, supported by new partnerships with Local Authorities, NHS Trusts, schools and national and grassroots charities.
This work also saw the launch of Our Community Wi-Fi, our �rst Big Box programme in the UK. Forty sites will provide place-based public Wi-Fi for underserved groups, helping to shape the future of community digital infrastructure.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS' FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
"Historically, MiFi costs have been a major barrier. Thanks to Jangala, we can now complete our digital inclusion puzzle." Get Box partner.
"[My worker] came and gave me the box with the internet and I was very happy and I cried because I can speak more with my family. I don't see my family for one year, I don't have a holiday, I don't go. I stay only in the home." Get Box user.
Advocacy and Collaboration
We contributed to the UK Government's Digital Inclusion Action Plan, joined the United Nations Emergency Telecommunications Cluster, and responded to key consultations on digital inclusion and digital standards.
5. Jangala Innovates
Jangala's mission is underpinned by our ability to design reliable, user-focused, and adaptable technology. In 202425, we made major progress across hardware, �rmware, and software, guided by both ambition and lived experience from the �eld.
Big Box Vl: Production Readiness
Big Box Vl has advanced signi�cantly this year, with all new feature designs progressing to the design.
testing phase. We showcased our �rst prototype at ARM, where it was warmly received. The new solar charging element has been successfully incorporated into the design.
A major milestone was the completion of the passive heat dissipation solution. We have re�ned the physical design, which has now been incorporated into the second prototype that will be produced for physical UX testing. The highspeed electronic design has been validated in working test boards.
Firmware development has accelerated, with new team members modernising legacy code and laying the groundwork for the planned alpha release in 2025. While some timelines shifted due to resource constraints, the team adapted effectively. With successful development testing de-risking the overall product design, we are now preparing for �eld testing and user feedback.
Strategic Partnerships
We strengthened our partnership with Cambridge Consultants and began early discussions with Raspberry Pi around manufacturing and co-branding. We also began conversations with organisations like UNHCR and Emergency.lu, who may in future be major �eld users of Big Box.
We began market analysis and value proposition development, estimating potential demand of 10,000 units annually by 2030. We have also taken steps to register Big Box's visual design for IP protection.
Get Box: Scale and Re�nement
Get Box matured into a scalable, high-quality solution. Over 2,000 units were produced and assembled in-house following the end of our CDW partnership. A more ef�cient storage and assembly model ensured quality and scale.
User feedback, especially from our Coventry Council pilot, led to changes such as longer power cables, visible SIM balance, enhanced printed guides, and accessible video content.
Software, Cloud, and Firmware Improvements
We launched new dashboards using Grafana for monitoring, diagnostics, and impact tracking. We began upgrading our cloud platform in response to changes in Mainflux, introduced automation tools, and built a hardware test rig to speed up code validation.
Cl/CD processes and repository management were also improved, increasing ef�ciency and security across our engineering work.

6. Jangala Cares
We believe how we work is as important as what we do. This year brought challenges and transition, but also reflection, renewal, and a stronger sense of shared purpose.
Supporting our People
We took meaningful steps to embed our values into daily working life. We refreshed our organisational behaviours, making them practical and inclusive. These are already shaping collaboration and leadership.
We have improved internal processes in response to staff feedback, especially in fundraising and programme teams, and have worked to create a more open, collegiate culture.
We welcomed Elizabeth Hendry as our new Head of Programmes who brings experience delivering programmes at a high level in large NGOs such as the CDAC Network and the Norwegian Refugee Council.
We also welcomed Nikki Zywena as our new Head of Fundraising. With a renewed focus on values-led fundraising and a new commercial prospectus, we are now well positioned to diversify our income.
Embedding Vision and Values
We continued to develop our organisational Vision this year, anchored in the ambition to connect 4 million people by 2030. This is now guiding strategic planning across our three pillars: Connects, Innovates, and Cares.
Under 'Cares', we have begun co-designing internal commitments around wellbeing, sustainability, and inclusion, building on existing work like our Wellbeing Working Group and flexible working policies.
The year reminded us that looking after our people is not a soft extra, it is foundational to our impact. We move into 2025 with stronger leadership, renewed cohesion, and a deeper commitment to living our values every day.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation & Assessment of Going Concern
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015) (Second Edition, effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Assessment of Going Concern
Preparation of the accounts is on a going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Incoming Resources
Recognition of Incoming Resources
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
▪ the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
▪ the Directors are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and
▪ the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
Incoming Resources with Related Expenditure
Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resource and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA.
Grants and Donations
Grants and Donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Tax Reclaims on Donations and Gifts
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA in the same financial period as the gift to which they relate.
Contractual Income and Performance Related Grants
This is only included in the SOFA once the related goods or services has been delivered.
Gifts in Kind
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Donated Services and Facilities
These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.

The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the Directors' annual report.
Investment Income
This is included in the accounts when receivable.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Previous Accounts
There has been no change to the accounting policies (variation rules and methods of accounting) since last year, and no changes to the previous accounts.
Grants Payable without Performance Conditions
These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity.
Unrestricted funds
These funds can be used for the general objectives of the charity as set out in the trustees report. The movements of the unrestricted funds are given in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Designated funds

The Directors have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks.

The Directors have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The Directors aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The directors will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS
Report to the trustees/ members of Jangala Ltd on the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2025 set out on pages 10 to 20.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act; b) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and;
c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.
The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Accounting Technicians.
I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters.
Independent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
· to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities.
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
