Summary ofthe maln
achievements of tho charity
during the year
Charity activity was again limited due to ongoing pandemic
uncertainties, but as individuals, the trustees have, subjett to
pandemic restrictions, continued to raise awareness of the work
of MHU UK amongst friends and family, resulting in some
individual donations.
Ugandan schools reopened later in the year post pandemic than
he￿ in the UK, and MHU primary school saw a rise in the
number of children wishing to register at the school. It quickly
became evident that the unfinished Nursery classrooms were a
priority for completion to standards conducive to leaming. MHU
UK sent funds in December 2021 for flooring, plastering of walls
and intemal & external decoration, with the work being
completed in readiness for the new school term in January.
Charity trustees prepared a p￿sentatIOn for the OMA annual
awards ball which was a virtual event in January 2022. This was
again a great opportunity to raise aWa￿nesS, and the resulting
getierous donation from OMA was sent to MHU to enable the
building of a cookhouse, store and warden's room at the school
site in Kafumu, Uganda. This project was further funded by
some individual designated gifts. The brick built cookhouse is
more fit for purpose for providing a meal for the children each
day, and periodical meals for the elderly in the community as
well. The addition of a store means that maize or millet can be
purchased in larger amounts and stored properly which is more
cost effective. As the project buildings have developed, and
with a few vulnerable children 'boarding' on site during term
time, the warden's room is a g￿at addition providing
employment and accommodation for a warden.
Funds from regular donations were again sent periodically
through the year towards staff salaries in Kafumu.
All donations and funds raised were forwarded in line with the
charities, grant making policy to Mercy Hands Uganda and were
regularly accounted for through ￿ceipts and photographic
evidence.
No trustee or team visits were made to Uganda during the year,
but trustees continued to be in very regular contact, almost
daily. Tthvith Daniel Waddimba
Director of MHU in Uganda.
TAR
March 2012

MHU UK does not intend to hold reserves as all donations are
forwarded to the beneficiaries in line with the grant making
policy and in a timely, cost effective manner. The remaining
balance of funds received during this financial year were sent
onward early in the next financial period.
