|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|The main achievement in the year was the<br>successful proof of concept of the charity’s<br>conservation goal. Yeheb seeds that had<br>been gathered and planted in May 2024<br>grew successfully, bore flowers and seeds,<br>and those seeds in turn were planted and<br>some had germinated by November 2025.<br>This outcome is much faster than we had<br>anticipated and extremely encouraging,<br>since it validates the husbandry practices<br>that we have used and on which training<br>was delivered in 2024. It opens the way to<br>scale-up the project in future years.|

This successful outcome was made possible by a generous grant from the Mohamed Bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund in 2024 which also covered part of 2025. The trustees also wish to thank Ms. Ruba Farkh, Mrs Rachel Evans, and other individual donors for their kind support. As well as the direct benefits to the community of Walwaal, the project is also benefiting the Somali Region of Ethiopia by building knowledge of yeheb conservation, which is being shared with local partners including the regional Agriculture Bureau and the Somali Region Pastoral and Agropastoral Research Institute. The charity continues to have an active website and social media presence. Through these the Trustees created connections with a variety of stakeholders and answered questions from the public about Yeheb. The charity sponsored a research project by a masters student, Mr Ahmed Ali, at the Häme University of Applied Sciences, Finland. The trustees have reviewed their long-term strategy and funding plan for the charity and believe that this remains appropriate.

The second<br>and third objectives were met. No new<br>funding was secured although there is one<br>application outstanding.|
|---|---|---|
|Performance of fundraising<br>activities against objectives<br>set|Para 1.41|The charity received no new grants from<br>charitable trusts during the year.

|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held,<br>the amount of reserves held<br>and reasons for holding zero<br>reserves if applicable|Para 1.22|Zero reserves are held, because there are<br>no material recurring expenses (such as<br>staff salaries or similar commitments) that<br>would justify holding reserves. Accordingly,<br>all the charity’s funds are available to<br>advance the objectives.|
|---|---|---|
|Details of fund materially in<br>deficit|Para 1.24|No fund of the charity is in deficit|
|Explanation of any<br>uncertainties about the<br>charity continuing as a going<br>concern|Para 1.23|The charity has no material liabilities and<br>can rely on the continuing support of its<br>trustees, hence there are no uncertainties<br>about the charity continuing as a going<br>concern.|
