Kingdom Compassion CIO
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
Year ended 31 August 2025
Governance and management
This is the third Trustees’ Report of Kingdom Compassion CIO, a charitable incorporated organisation registered as a charity (number 1198377) on 25[th] March 2022 under Part 11 of the Charities Act 2011.
The governing body of the charity is the Board of Trustees, and the trustees are responsible for the management of the charity. All trustees are elected at the Annual General Meeting but a trustee may be co-opted during the year by the other trustees. A trustee is appointed for a term of three years but may be re-appointed.
Day to day management of the charity is delegated to the Director, Samy Mansour, who coordinates the activity of a team of counsellors in providing many of the charity’s services.
Objectives
The purposes of the charity, in accordance with the Constitution, are:
The preservation and protection of the good mental and physical health of families and individuals through the provision of support and counselling services in accordance with Christian principles.
Public benefit
The trustees are aware of the guidance relating to public benefit provided by the Charity Commission. In particular, the charity aims to make its counselling services available to anyone who wishes to apply for them.
Activities and Achievements
(a) Counselling
A primary focus of the charity is counselling, delivered through a network of five qualified or accredited counsellors who offer professional services to individuals unable to afford such support. None of these counsellors is employed or compensated by the charity.
1
Clients are requested to contribute based on a sliding scale corresponding to their income. The activity has been conducted successfully throughout the year. Recently, there has been a steady number of referrals, usually four or five each month.
By the end of August 2025, we had received a total of 60 new referrals for various issues, including anxiety, depression, OCD, phobias, eating disorders, marital or couple relationship concerns, trauma and PTSD, work-related stress, addiction or life-controlling issues, and burnout. Over the course of 12 months, our team worked with 25 new individuals and couples. The remaining 35 referrals either ceased follow-up with us or underwent an initial assessment but remained undecided about continuing treatment. Additionally, we successfully referred several individuals to more appropriate services.
(b) Trauma-focused work
Several of the referrals from counselling resulted in trauma-focused therapy. Furthermore, eight other referrals were managed specifically for trauma-focused treatment.
(c) Leadership Coaching
This service aims to provide assistance and support Christian leaders through critical periods in their lives. It offers flexibility to meet both short-term and long-term needs. Samy has supported numerous Christian leaders facing crises, burnout, transitions, work-related conflicts, and stress management, including marital conflicts resulting from an imbalance between work and home life. As of August 2025, we have assisted twelve leaders from the United Kingdom and internationally. All contacts are ordained vicars, ministers, or leaders of missionary organisations. This ministry emerged in response to demand rather than through prior planning; nevertheless, it has maintained a robust presence over recent years.
(d) Training
All training provided has been for Christian organisations, with a focus on addiction, trauma, and supervision for charity workers.
We provided three sessions in the year ending August 2025 on how trauma develops, its effects on the body, and trauma and addiction. Only Christian charities benefited from our free training programmes.
Samy spoke at a conference in Bristol attended by about 150 people on addiction and trauma. He also led two seminars for recovery workers in drug rehabilitation.
Overseas engagement: Primarily conducted online, with no recent overseas trips.
(e) Networking
Samy attended a conference in London dedicated to Middle East missionary organisations, with an emphasis on media. He participates in an All-Party Parliamentary Group bi-monthly, which affords him the opportunity to contribute grassroots ideas concerning drugs, alcohol, and related issues.
2
Additionally, he is a member of Global Connection, an evangelical network of missionary organisations, where he meets and prays with several CEOs monthly.
Financial Review
The charity continues to benefit from a transfer of £28,189 from Kingdom Compassion YWAM upon its dissolution in 2022. During the year, donations of £2,510 were received and expenditure of £2,114 was incurred, leaving a closing balance of £27,716. Of this amount, £15,635 is held on a fixed term deposit yielding interest at 4.3% pa.
