Structure

EdUKaid was established in 2003 and operated as an unincorporated registered charity in the UK and a Non-government Organisation in Tanzania. EdUKaid registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 21 December 2021 for the purpose of carrying on the activities of EdUKaid as an incorporated body. EdUKaid completed the transfer of assets and liabilities on 31 March 2024.

Reporting Period

The accounts in this report pertain to the period 1st November 2024 - 31st October 2025. The trustees report pertains to the period 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2025.

Governance

EdUKaid recruits trustees in the UK with the skills and experience to ensure the charity carries out its activities effectively and efficiently. The trustees take an active interest in operational activities and remain informed through regular reports and six subcommittees and three full board meetings a year. The board of trustees regularly reviews its ‘fitness’ with reference to the charity’s purpose, plans, solvency, resilience, and governance.

Our Tanzanian board of trustees represents the communities in which we work with the skills and experience to inform strategy, advise on programme development, and provide operational oversight.

Objectives

EdUKaid’s primary objectives are the advancement of education and training for children, teachers and the local community in Tanzania. We believe that through education individuals can achieve their full potential and develop the skills to make life choices.

Vision

Our vision is for a world where every child has access to the education they need to realise their potential and attain the skills to improve their life chances.

Mission

Our mission is to raise the quality of education and welfare in the Mtawa region Tanzania, thereby helping to eradicate poverty.

Core Values

Our core values underpin all aspects of our activities:

Community-led
Sustainability
Equality
Inclusion
Collaboration

Public Benefit

The trustees have given due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and have taken it into consideration when making decisions. This report provides a summary of our main activities undertaken in 2024-25 demonstrating our charitable purpose for the public benefit.

Safeguarding

The trustees believe that the welfare of children and vulnerable individuals is paramount. The charity trains its programmes team and operates within the framework of comprehensive Safeguarding, Prevention of Sexual Abuse and Exploitation and Whistleblowing policies which clearly state how

incidents and allegations will be handled should they arise. Policies and practices are reviewed annually. EdUKaid is considered a leading organisation with regard to safeguarding in Tanzania and has been highly influential in improving stakeholder safeguarding practices across the districts in which we operate.

Activities

EdUKaid works alongside communities in the southern Mtwara District of Tanzania. Our activities aim to reduce marginalisation, increase opportunity, and provide the most disadvantaged children with an education. Supporting particularly isolated communities, we develop sustainable solutions in partnership with local stakeholders - widening educational access and promoting a culture of inclusion.

Core activities include:

School and Community Capacity Building aimed at providing teachers, community leaders and key education and welfare stakeholders with the skills they need to deliver a quality education.
Pre-primary Education delivering early years education across 16 primary schools. Establishing community led pre-primary satellite classes and training teachers across the Mtwara District to deliver a child-friendly, play-focused education in government schools.
Inclusive Education activities that improve access to education for adolescent girls covering menstruation education and children living with a disability, leading to dramatic improvements in enrolment, attendance, and academic attainment.
Primary School Development renovating neglected environments, constructing classrooms, improving sanitation facilities, and promoting community engagement at some of the most disadvantaged government schools in Mtwara District leading to better health and improved learning outcomes.
Extra Tuition supports children struggling to progress through the school system, improving learning outcomes and reducing dropout rates.

Risk Management

EdUKaid recognises that development can only be achieved with an element of considered risk. Sound risk management is essential to its governance and to sustainable operation services. EdUKaid’s Risk Management Register and policy provides guidance on managing organisational risk to pursue the EdUKaid mission. The Trustees are satisfied adequate systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to major risks where possible.

Reserves

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Sufficient funds will be held in reserve to enable our core activities to continue over a period of 6 months.

Volunteers and In-Kind Support

EdUKaid is grateful to its invaluable team of dedicated volunteers who provide support in fundraising, marketing, and administration activities. EdUKaid also benefits from in-kind office space and administrative support provided by our main corporate supporter, Doozy Life. This support reduces our UK overheads and helps to focus resources on delivering work in Tanzania.

Strategic Planning

In consultation with stakeholders in both Tanzania and the UK, we conducted a strategic review in Nov 2024 we are now developing and operating a three year capacity building project working towards up-skilling all our team members by 2028.

Achievements

EdUKaid continued to deliver a range of activities focusing on building capacity and improving educational outcomes for the disadvantaged children and communities in rural Mtwara, Tanzania:

Our impact in numbers : In 2024/2025

31,138 children and young people accessed a quality, rights-based education or training, of which 18,673 are girls.
21,000 community members were empowered through training and consultation.
34,000 parents were more involved in their children’s education.
925 children with disabilities accessed a quality education.
4 Community libraries were built, resourced and maintained.
6228 new library visitors joined storytimes and reading books.
99% of preprimary children moved on to primary school / 1211 preprimary children moved to primary school.
31 preprimary teachers were trained in child centred, play based teaching methodologies.
11 young people were helped back into education through developing vocational skills.

Projects 2024 - 2025

Pre-Primary Satellite - See attached Report

Inclusion Project - See Attached Report

Individual Support

We continue to provide ongoing support for a small number of individual children including those with special educational and support needs. This support includes the provision of uniforms, resources, transport and specialist equipment which have been essential in ensuring that the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children have access to a safe and inclusive education.

Sustainability

We aim to ensure that as many of our projects as possible are managed and run long-term by communities, making them sustainable and effective. This year we worked with 21,000 community members in rural communities across Mtwara Region to support training and setting up of community committees to oversee development. We have also trained parents in making school and learning materials for preprimary classes and to support home learning for children with disabilities.

On a regional level, in 2024 - 2025 we collaborated with government, education and community officers to implement and sustain our projects. This ensures that projects have local and regional buy-in and support.

Fundraising Performance

In 2024 - 2025 we continued to generate income from a range of sources in line with our strategy to reduce reliance on any one single income stream.

Grant funding continues to represent our largest funding source with £162,954 of our income awarded by trusts and foundations . We are incredibly grateful to our funders and we are especially thankful to those that supported the growth of our work and impact studies over this last year .

Our corporate supporters and individual supporters have shown a great commitment to the children in Tanzania with Donations totaling £49,629 . In addition we are grateful to the businesses and individuals connected with the vending industry who raised an incredible £35,777 at the 14th annual Great vending get together.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of EdUKaid Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“the CIO”)

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the year ended 31 October 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the CIO’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Trust’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with my examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 October 2024

Note 1 - Accounting policies

a. Basis of accounting

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

On 21 December 2021, EdUKaid, a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), was created. The net assets and liabilities of EdUKaid, registered number 1102613, were transferred to the CIO on 1 April 2024. Consolidated accounts have been prepared and the disclosures can be found in Note 17. Financial statements for the orginal EdUKaid charity can be obtained from 1 Scotts Close, Downton Business Centre, Salisbury, Wiltshire SP1 3RA.

b. Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for the 12 months following approval of these financial statements. Forecasted revenues, along with current reserves, are sufficient for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

c. Income recognition

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, there is certainty that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.

There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.

d. Grants and donations

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when there is evidence of entitlement to the grant, receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably. The majority of grants are restricted by the donor.

e. Tax reclaims on donations and gifts

Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.

f. Fundraising, donated goods and voluntary help

Income from charitable fundraising is included when the income is certain and is decribed within the Trustees' Annual Report. The value of donated goods and voluntary help are not included in the accounts. Donated goods relate to gifted prizes for the Great Vending Get Together. Voluntary income is decribed in the Trustees' Annual Report.

g. Income from interest

Income is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 October 2024

Note 1 - Accounting policies cont…

h. Liability recognition

Liabilities are recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

i. Foreign transactions

The charity objectives are carried out in Tanzania. Overseas transactions are converted to Sterling at the average monthly rate. Currency gains and losses are included within the profit and loss account when they arise. Assets and liabilities existing at the year end are valued at the rate of exchange prevailing at the year end date.

j. Governance and support costs

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

k. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity

Expenditure on office equipment and motor vehicles costing more than £100 is capitalised. Depreciation is provided on fixed assets at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over it's useful life:

Freehold property No depreciation Office equipment Over three years Motor vehicles Over five years

No depreciation has been charged on the freehold property because the Trustees are of the opinion that the residual value is at least equal to book value.

l. Debtors

Trade and other debtors are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

m. Creditors

Creditors are recognised when an obligation exists from a past event and are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.

n. Deferred income

Deferred income is reported as a creditor when the income relates to activities or events that take place after the year in which the income is received.

o. Provisions for liabilities

A contingent liability will be disclosed if a possible obligation arising from a past event will be confirmed by a future event or where the transfer of funds is not probable or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured reliably.

A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.

EDUKAID Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 October 2025

Note 1 - Accounting policies cont…

p. Basic financial instruments

The charity has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as financial instruments. These are cash, debtors and creditors, which are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

q. Reserves

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Restricted funds are specifically restricted in purpose as specified by the donor and the amounts in the funds represent the monies still remaining for future expenditure.
