The global outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and the impact of the lockdown restrictions by the government - b.) A medical emergency, the chair of trustees was diagnosed with and is currently having ongoing treatment for cancer This made it very difficult for the charity to operate and execute any of its objectives during this financial year. We hope to be able to resume operations once the chair has been given the all clear from all medical treatments and the pandemic restrictions become more conducive for us to resume regular activities and full operations. 4 **----- Start of picture text -----**
