For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year.
The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year include providing essential support to orphan children, ensuring they have homes, education, and a promising future. The charity covers the running costs of the orphanage in the Philippines and supports children ranging from 7 to 15 years old.
Fundraising activities during the year.
The charity relies on donations provided by the general public and businesses, whose support is valued. During this financial year there was a fundraising event held at the Audley Community Centre in Blackburn.
The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity. And The degree to which the achievements and performance during the year have benefitted wider society.
The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity is immense. The charity's funding and support have provided orphan children with homes, education, and a brighter future. Without this assistance, these children would have no home or prospects. In addition, the charity's activities have benefitted wider society by supporting disabled individuals in Uganda with wheelchairs and tricycles and by providing food packs for the homeless in Greater Manchester, thus contributing to the well-being of the broader community.
Financial review of the position at the reporting date For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
The charity’s principal source of funding is through donations. The income in the period was adequate to cover the overheads. The present level of funding is sufficient to support the continuation of the centre and the trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory.
Policies on reserves
The charity has a reserves policy which identifies a minimum level of unrestricted reserves to ensure its core activity could continue during a period of unforeseen difficulty. This policy is reviewed on an annual basis. Currently, the reserves level is set at £5,000.00 which would cover utility bills and teaching staff expenditure that would be due to be paid for three months.

Humanity 4 Orphans
Trustees' Annual Report
For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
For the purposes of short and medium term financial management, the trustees are concerned more with the management of working capital, and the healthy working capital position is entirely in line with their policy of holding free resources sufficient to fund three months of ongoing unrestricted expenditure to cover the eventuality of a material decline in incoming resources.
Structure, governance and management of the charity
The methods used to recruit and appoint new charity trustees.
We have not appointed any new trustees during this year. When skills gaps are identified, or workload for existing trustees is considered to be too much, potential new trustees with required skills as well as necessary motivation to further the charity’s objectives will be identified through recommendations of trustees, staff and volunteers. The board of trustees will interview potential new trustees and the most suitable trustees will be appointed through the agreement of the board of trustees.
Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008., to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019), The SORP.
In particular, charity law requires the Trustees, if they prepare accounts on an accruals basis, to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to :-
-
to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year.

Independent Examiners’ Report
For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
We report on the accounts of the company For the Period Ended 31 August 2023 which are set out on pages 8 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the Governing Document for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under s145 of the Act. 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 setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and of the accounting systems employed by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP.
Independent examiner’s statement
Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, I have completed my examination: and can confirm that:-
This is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; and that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by with Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011;
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
the financial statements 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;
have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP).

Notes to the accounts
For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
1. Accounting policies
Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice.
Going Concern
The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing voluntary donations. The Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Other than this, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Risks and future assumptions
The charity is a public benefit entity. It has been assumed that the charity will continue to operate for the foreseeable future.
Nature of income
Gross income represents the value, net of value added tax and discounts, of goods provided to customers and work carried out in respect of services provided to customers.
Categories of Income
Income is categorised as income from exchange transactions (contract income) and income from nonexchange transactions (gifts), investment income and other income.
Income from exchange transactions is received by the charity for goods or services supplied under contract or where entitlement is subject to fulfilling performance related conditions. The income the charity receives is approximately equal in value to the goods or services supplied by the charity to the purchaser.
Income from a non-exchange transaction is where the charity receives value from the donor without providing equal value in exchange, and includes donations of money, goods and services freely given without giving equal value in exchange.
Income recognition
Income, whether from exchange or non exchange transactions, is recognised in the statement of financial activities (SOFA) on a receivable basis, when a transaction or other event results in an increase in the charity’s assets or a reduction in its liabilities and only when the charity has legal entitlement, the income is probable and can be measured reliably.
10
Humanity 4 Orphans
Notes to the accounts
For the Period Ended 31 August 2023
Income subject to terms and conditions which must be met before the charity is entitled to the resources is not recognised until the conditions have been met.
All income is accounted for gross, before deducting any related fees or costs.
Volunteers
In accordance with the SORP, and in recognition of the difficulties in placing a monetary value on the contribution from volunteers, the contribution of volunteers is not included within the income of the charity.
However, the trustees value the significant contribution made to the activities of the charity by unpaid volunteers.
Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
There are no designated funds. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.
There ar no restricted funds. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal or as implied by law.
There are no endowment funds.
2. Liability to taxation
The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
3. Winding up or dissolution of the charity
If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
4. The contribution of volunteers
The charity depends on the support of its volunteers, which is much appreciated. The charity had many volunteers who donated their time. The arrangements with volunteers are difficult to value precisely in monetary terms and have not been recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. The volunteers and the charity accept and agree that no contract of employment is created by these arrangements.
No employees received emoluments (excluding pension costs) in excess of £60,000 per annum.
