Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
| Summary of the main 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 | Between April and December 2021, schools were still closed in Uganda. We ran an education programme for children to be able to continue their learning during a time when education wasn’t readily available. On Saturdays we have run community activity days which involved playing games, sports, educational activities, tutoring for anyone who needed it. Towards the end of the year, we started adult education classes. These were to teach basic English and maths skills as well as teaching adults how to write an effective CV in order to apply for jobs. After completion, a certificate of participation was given for each person to use in potential interviews. |
