within our areas of operation.
Sponsorship Scheme:
At the heart of UgandAid is the sponsorship scheme, through which we offer hope to vulnerable youngsters, the poorest of the poor in Uganda (our current area of operation), by sponsoring vocational training (primarily at Nile Vocational Institute) leading to personal growth, confidence, employment and self-sufficiency. A life-changing, life-giving opportunity for hundreds of students and their extended families.
Annual trip to Uganda:
**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)**
Usually in February members of the charity trustees and operations team lead a group of like-minded people to Jinja in Uganda, providing the opportunity to regularly meet the students. Unfortunately, due to Covid 19 this was not possible this year.
The trustees confirm that they have taken into account the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our purpose and objects and in carrying out our activities.

Section D Achievements and performance
## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
Our work has been twofold; the sponsoring of students at Nile Vocational Institute and practical and financial support of local institutions.
Due to Covid-19 we were very restricted in terms of normal activities as was the case in Uganda also.
Nile Vocational Institute (NVI), along with other educational establishments remained fully closed, until finally being able to open in part, in October 2020. They were allowed to open for finalists only, who were able to complete their courses in March 2021.
On 1[st] March 2021 NVI was allowed to fully reopen, allowing all students to return, effectively a year late, looking to complete their courses at the end of 2021.
At the start of our 2020 financial year, we had been able to secure nearly £23,000, in promised and actual giving, for the Domestic Technology Department refurbishment project. So, 44% of target had so far been achieved.
Given the difficulties of fundraising during pandemic, with the agreement of The Laing Trust, we were able to split the project into two phases, without jeopardising the Trust funding.
Phase 1, the reroofing and building work was completed in September 2021. Fundraising for Phase 2, the installation of 10, 10,000 litre water tanks, for the rainwater harvesting system, was complete and the additional work was about to start.
