achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|During this financial year, the charity
achieved significant progress in advancing
its core objects through successful
fundraising and strategic grant-making.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters
and a diverse range of fundraising activities,
we raised a total of**£117,762**.
**Direct Impact on Beneficiaries**The
primary focus of our work this year was
addressing critical healthcare disparities in
Pakistan. The charity allocated**£54,556**in
grant funding to our key partner organisation
in Azad Kashmir, Pakistan. The entirety of
this funding was deployed directly to support
essential health and medical aid in Essar,
located within the Mirpur District.
Through this targeted funding, our partner
organisation delivered crucial medical
supplies, healthcare services, and life-saving
treatments to vulnerable individuals and
families in Essar who previously lacked
reliable access to quality healthcare. This
funding directly improved health outcomes,
alleviated physical suffering, and provided
essential medical intervention to
beneficiaries in acute need.
**Wider Public Benefit**Beyond the direct
health outcomes for individual beneficiaries,
the charity's work delivered wider benefits to
the local community and society at large:
•
**Strengthening Local**
**Infrastructure:**By supporting
primary healthcare delivery in Mirpur
District, our grants helped relieve| pressure on overstretched regional public health services. • **Community Resilience & Equity:** Improving healthcare access in economically disadvantaged areas fosters healthier, more economically active communities and helps reduce long-term poverty. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

financial position at the end
of the period|Para 1.21|**At the end of the period, the charity had**
**funds amounting to £176,446**| |Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held|Para 1.22|**Reserves Policy**
The Trustees have established a reserves
policy to ensure the charity’s operational
stability and the continuity of its grant-
making activities. Reserves are held to cover
core operational overheads, manage
unexpected fluctuations in fundraising
income, and ensure we can honour multi-
year or emergency grant commitments to
our overseas partner organizations without
interruption.
**Current Reserves Position**
As of the end of the financial year, the
charity held total unrestricted reserves of
**£176,446**.
**Justification and Future Intentions**
The Trustees consider the current level of
reserves appropriate to safeguard the charity
against financial uncertainty, particularly
given the reliance on voluntary public
fundraising and the need to maintain
consistent support for our primary health
initiatives in Azad Kashmir, Pakistan.
The Trustees monitor the level of reserves
on a regular basis to ensure they remain
aligned with our strategic risk management
plans, incoming cash flows, and planned
grant disbursements for the upcoming
financial year.| |Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|At the financial year-end, the total funds held
by the charity stood at**£176,446**. The
entirety of this balance is held within
restricted funds, which are legally ring-
fenced for specific charitable projects.
Consequently, the charity holds**£0**in
unrestricted general free reserves.| |Reasons for holding zero
reserves|Para 1.22|The charity's free reserves stand at zero
because our current operating model is
entirely reliant on restricted grant income
and targeted project donations. Because
these funds are legally restricted, they
cannot be repurposed or accumulated as a
general operating safety net. While the
Trustees acknowledge the financial risks
associated with holding zero free reserves,
this position accurately reflects our current| |||funding structure. To mitigate this risk, the
Trustees ensure that project budgets are
tightly managed and that restricted grants
appropriately cover their direct costs and
fairly allocated overheads. The Trustees are
also actively seeking unrestricted funding
streams to establish a baseline reserve in
future periods.| |---|---|---| |Details of fund materially in
deficit|Para 1.24|The Trustees confirm that no individual fund
was materially in deficit at the financial year-
end. All projects and restricted activities
have been managed within the limits of their
allocated funding, and there are no negative
fund balances requiring rectification or
transfer from unrestricted income.| |Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern|Para 1.23|The Trustees have reviewed the charity's
financial position, expected cash flows,
and funding commitments for a period of
at least 12 months from the date of
approving these financial statements.
While the lack of general unrestricted
reserves presents a structural
vulnerability, the significant restricted
balance of £176,446 provides sufficient
liquidity to fulfill our current project
commitments.
The Trustees have a reasonable
expectation that the charity has
adequate resources to continue
operational existence for the foreseeable
future. Accordingly, there are no material
uncertainties that cast significant doubt
upon the charity’s ability to continue as a
going concern, and the financial
statements have been prepared on this
basis.| |**Additional information (optional)**
