| 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) |
In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the charity commissions guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings: The main activity of the charity is as follows: - To build ferro cement water tanks in public primary schools in rural Uganda. - Provide water filters in public primary school class rooms. These activity benefit the community by providing those young people with access to water for sanitation (cleaning their hands after going to the toilet) and providing access to safe drinking water while at school. An assessment is done to determine that the school needs a water tank. i.e. there is not continuous access to drinking water at or near the school’s grounds or reaching the current source presents a risk to the child when accessing the water (they have to cross a road). |

Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
In the period the charity raised money to fund the construction of water tanks in rural Uganda. One water tank was built in the rural region around Bukedea, Eastern Uganda. It is estimated that 300 children have benefited from this tank as well as the others previous built before the charity was registered.
We have also have been investigating the use of small scale water filters for use in school class rooms. We have installed several in a primary school to understand their benefits and if they are used.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact on our ability to conduct charitable operations, however some ongoing maintenance and planning for future work was achieved through this time.
