CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment}
Trustees Report
The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements and independent
review of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Strategy and Objectives
CHASE Africa's vision is healthy, empowered communities living sustainably in their natural
environment. Our mission is to support partner organisations, in Africa, that enable access to
healthcare, family planning and rights, while protecting the environment and building resilience to
climate change.
We achieve this through by 5UPPOrting implementing partner organisations in East Africa, who are
based within the rural communities they sUPPOrt, to address community and ecosystem health. We
nurture these organisations. by supporting their organisational development, providing technical
assistance on programme delivery, as well as raising funds for programme implementation,
managing grants and stewarding donor relationships.
Our projects support local communities, primarily by improving the sexual and reproductive health
and rights of women and 3dolescent girls. which includes addressing the unmet need for family
planning. This has numerous health, economic and social benefits. All of our partners work closely
with their local Ministry of Health and health services are provided free of charge. We also improve
access to other health services such as children's immunisations and basic curative treatment.
Our 3 year strategic plan12023-20251 ha5 3 overarching objectives..
Improve access to healthcare, address Sexual and Reprodurtive Health and Rights {SRHR) and
the unmet need for family planning.
We continue supporting local partners to run community health programmes with a particular
focu5 on reproductive, maternal, neo-natal, child and adolescent health. We are strengthening
and growing our portfolio of health partners. In particular, seeking out new partner
organisations that are innovating and testing complementary approaches in support of social
and behavioural change. We support pilot programmes that have the capacity to be replicated,
since delivery at SC31e will be required to provide sustainable health services in rural areas. In
parallel we are incorporating more formalised training and health system strengthening into all
our programmes. We will also expand to new geographical areas, where our model can most
effectively serve communities. This included starting work in 2024 in a new country, Tan2ania.
Embed health, SRHR and famlly plannlng Into broader programmlng In rural communitles.
We have developed particular expertise in integrating community health programmes with a
range of other environmentally focussed activities, such as improving natural resource
management, providing alternative livelihoods training, school woodlots and kitchen gardens.
Many of these integrated programmes aim to improve the lives of rural women, with cross-
cutting benefits extending to climate change resilience, food security and poverty reduction. In
parallel, we have also supported locally-based, community-focused conservation organisations
to start and run community health projects. We plan to build on our experience of working with
conservation organisations to take this approach to scale, by developing resources, tools and
training modules to support other organisations.

CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment}
We also plan to promote this integrated approach to other organisations working in rural areas.
particularly those that engage a high proportion of women in their activities.
Showcase impart and advocate for SRHR
In addition to direct partner support, CHASE Africa aims to build and disseminate evidence of
the impact of its approaches and models, to share its learning and experience across its own
growing partner network and also more widely with other implementing organisations, funders
and policy makers. To this end we will invite academic partners to scrutinise our programmes
and assist in articulating and quantifying impact. We will continue to share the benefits of taking
innovative holistic approaches, where SRH R activities are integrated into other programmes that
reach rural communities, bringing a win-win for both human and environmental health at a time
when the climate emergency dictates urgent action.
Our longer-term strategy, over the next 10 years
CHASE Africa aims to be the facilitator of an exemplary network of local partners that have
succe55fully tested and demonstrated a range of effective solutions for improving SRHRS, alongside
sustainable access to health services, including family planning, for marginalised rural communities.
It also seeks to demonstrate how improving the health of rural communities. particularly women, is
also a contributory factor to achieving successful conservation and biodiversity goals, and how
addressing the unmet need for family planning, keeping girls at school and empowering them builds
societal resilience, which is also a core pillar of resilience to climate change.
Whilst maintaining and developing an existing range of model projects through support to our
network of local partners, CHASE Africa will continue expanding the impact of its approach within
and beyond East Africa. We will seek to collaborate with other organisations within the
development, conservation, education and healthcare sectors, to grow the impact of our work.
Achievements and Performance in 2024
We have been excited in 2024 to see the expansion and scaling of some of the projects that we have
started with local partners. This demonstrates the replicability of our approach and the way
programmes can be expanded and scaled to more communities, when additional funding become5
available, leading to greater impact. In 2024, our partner. Big Life Foundation, expanded their health
programme to a new group ranch in the Amboseli ecosystem. The project was started with CHASE
Africa's support in 2018, 2nd has expanded with our ongoing and growing commitment over the
past years. It has expanded further with additional funding from some of Big Life's other funders.
The whole programme benefits from the technical support of the CHASE Africa partner network.
Dandelion Africa is expanding their programme into a new geographical area in 2025 with support
from CHASE Africa. Another partner, The Maa Trust, has built on the health and adolescent
programme we initiated with them in 2021. They raised funding to build a Maternal, Newborn and
Child Health Centre at Talek in Narok county, in order to address many of the health issues identified
through the community health programme we built with them. In addition, the information
provision and behavioural change communication provided by the ongoing health programme we
support The Maa Trust to run, has provided vital for their Alternative Rights of Passage programme,
which aims to reduce Female Genital Mutilation IFGMI within the local communities. In Uganda.
our partner Rwenzori Centre for Research and Advocacy IRCRAI expanded their work to the Nakivale
Refugee Settlement. where the need for health services is far greater than current supply.

CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment}
Direct Programme Support
Through the thirteen local partner organisations that we supported in 2024 we delivered nearly
154,000 Family Planning and other Sexual and Reproductive Health Services {up 12¥0 from 137,000
in 20221 We had over 668,000 attendances at information and awareness raising sessions, 292,000
of these were for under 195 demonstrating our growing focus on reaching adolescents and youth.
In addition 143,000 other basic health services were also delivered.
In 2024 we started two new partnerships. One was with Reproductive Health Network Kenya
IRHNKI, to develop a training programme for health workers in Meru county in Kenya on Adolescent
SRH. Meru has the highest rates of teenage pregnancies of any county in Kenya. The need for
training was identified through the Adolescent SRHR programme that we are supporting our partner
Mount Kenya Trust to run in the county. It will address one of the key challenges identified, which
is that adolescents and youth struggle to access youth-friendly services and health workers haven't
received training in Adolescent SRH and don't know how to tailor services for this cohort. The
project has been supported with funding from Global Health Partnerships (formally THETI.
The second new partnership is with Tanzanian People and Wildlife, who we have supported to start
a pilot project, introducing an SRH element into their existing conservation programme in Simanjiro
District in Northern Tanzania. This draws on our expertise and experience sUPPOrting community
focused conservation partners in Kenya, working with pastoral communities in rangelands where
humans and wildlife coexist.
We also conducted due diligence on a second new partner in Tanzania. We supported the
development of a new programme, which will start in January 2025. This is a collaboration between
Honeyguide, Makame Wildlife Management Area and Maasai Womens Development Organisation
IMWEDOI. The project will aim to improve the health of the 26,000 people within the Makame
WMA, and will be demonstrating how Carbon Funding (which Makame WMA receive), can be used
to support improvements to health service delivery and outcomes in the local communities.
The local implementing partners that we supported in 2024 were..
Big Life Foundation work in the Amboseli Ecosystem in Kajiado county, Kenya. We started a
new three-year project to scale their work to improve the Sexual and Reproductive Health
and Rights of communities in Kajiado, including activities to reach young people both in and
out of school.
Communities Health Africa Trust provide both information and healthcare services to
underserved communities in Kenya, using a network of Community Own Resource Persons.
and running mobile outreach clinics. We are supporting their programme in two counties
around the Tana River.

pregnancies and reduce rates of school drop-out.
Reproductive Health Network Kenya are a new partner, who are supporting our Adolescent
SRH programme in Meru county. They are integrating a cascade training model for
healthcare workers on Adolescent SRH to ensure greater understanding of adolescent issues
and ensure more youth friendly service provision by clinicians.
Rural Initiative for Community Empowerment (RICE) West Nile, Uganda are in the second
year of a three year project in Bidibidi Refugee Settlement to address the combined
challenges of climate change, food security, environmental degradation and poor access to
health information and services. We also continue to support their work with fishing
communities along the River Nile aiming to improve both health and livelihoods of
communities. and to promote more sustainable fishing.
Rwenzori Centre for Research and Advocacy (RCRA) reach thousands of people living in
remote communities in the Rwenzori Mountains in Uganda with health services. They also
run an adolescent friendly centre, that combines a clinic with a youth training centre. We
supported them to pilot a new project in 2024, in the Nakivale Refugee Settlement,
addressing the huge needs for SRH services in the settlement.
South Rift Association of Land Owners (SORALO) are running a community health project
with support from CHASE Africa and continue to reach people with information and services.
They have strengthened the adolescent and youth component of the programme in 2024,
and trained a number of Youth Peer Mentors who are effectively championing SRHRS
amongst the local community.
Save the Elephants continued to embed their community health programme in Sagalla, near
Tsavo National Park. following a successful pilot partnership with CHASE Africa. and
expanded the programme into two neighbouring communities, bringing the reach of the
programme to 10,000 people.
Tanzanlan People and Wlldlife has been working with communities for almost two decades,
listening to and responding to the needs of people to co-develop solutions that balance the
needs of people and wildlife. They take a holistic approach, believing that education and
empowerment of women and youth are key to the sustainability of conservation initiatives
and natural resource management. We are supporting them to integrate health education
into their programmes, drawing on their network of Wildlife Clubs and Women's Enterprise
Groups as forums for providing health and SRHR information.

CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment}
The Maa Trust reach thousands of people in the Maasai Mara ecosystem, Kenya with
information at community dialogues, youth and men's forums, that shift behaviours and
attitudes towards Sexual and Reproductive Health, as well as providing healthcare and family
planning services.
Capacity Building of Partner Organisations
In addition to funding programme implementation by our local partners, we continue to proactively
share knowledge and learning across the CHASE Africa partner network. In 2024, this included the
annual partner conference, webinars and exchange visits between local partners.
In 2024 our local partners identified several common themes to support their organisational
development. These included strengthening Monitoring and Evaluation frameworks for the
Adolescent SRH programme5 we support; further enhancing safeguarding: addressingGender Based
Violence, and incorporating health system strengthening into their programmes.
CHASE Africa provided additional designated grants to address these areas of growth. We funded
local partners to run organisation-led initiatives and recruited local consultants to provide technical
advice on particular issues.
Wlder Influenclng Work
We continued our wider influencing work, aiming to demonstrate that the impact of addressing
Sexual and Reproductive Health and Right51SRHRI, and improving access to health services, not only
has direct benefits for the health, empowerment and wellbeing of women and girls, but also brings
wider benefits to families, communities and the local environment.
At the 2024 Partner Conference we were joined by several organisations interested to learn about
our approach. This included Born Free Foundation, Maasai Women's Development Organisation.
KMET, AMREF and Shared Action Africa. We also hosted Dr Edward Serem, Head of the Division of
Reproductive and Maternal Health for the Kenya Ministry of Health.
Throughout 2024, we have continued to support the work of the Internotionol Union for the
Con5ervotion of Noture (IUCNJ'5 Task Force on Biodiversity and Family Planning, of which we are
member. The Task Force has two objectives: to embed the importance of removing barriers to
rights-based voluntary family planning in relevant processes, policies and guidance materials, and
to demonstrate best practice, working across sectors to promote the importance of rights-based
policies and programmes.
Looking forward to 2025

Structure, Governance and Management in 2024
The Trustees are responsible for the governance and oversight of the charity and have control of
the Charity and its funds. Under the requirements of the constitution, the minimum number of
trustees is 5. Trustees serve term5 of 3 years and can be re-elected for two subsequent terms after
their initial term. The trustees hold a minimum of four meetings per year. Where required, decisions
are made by majority vote at tru5tees' meetings. The charity benefits from a close working
relationship between trustees. staff and partners.
In 2024, a new Chair of the Board of Trustees was appointed, Miles Geldard. This followed the
retirement from the Board of Toby Aykroyd after 12 dedicated years of service. Since Miles'5
appointment there has been a review of all governance structures, including a skills audit of the
board. The board has been reduced in size, with the intention of having a smaller group of more
actively engaged trustees for the next phase of the charity's growth. We would like to take this
opportunity to thank the hard work and support of the trustees who have stepped down from the
board in 2024.
Day to day management of CHASE Africa is delegated to the CEO, Harriet Gordon-Brown. and her
team of 5 staff (equivalent of 4 full time staff), supported by 3 consultants working on finance and
fundraising. The CEO reports directly to the Board of Trustees through the Chair. In September 2024
we recruited a SRHR Regional Manager in Kenya to replace a member of the programme team based
in the UK. This will enable us to provide more substantive technical support to partners, drawing on
local expertise, and to facilitate our participation in networks and working groups in East Africa.
Financial Review
In 2024, expenditure on charitable activities in the year was £825,307 (compared to £676,786 in
20231, showing 22% growth in our charitable support. This was made possible by the growth in
income in 2023.
The charit(s total income in 2024 was £850,379 down from £959,423 in 2023. The chart below
illustrates our income has been on a steady upward trajectory over time.

CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment}
We have a significant number of Trusts, Foundations and Individuals who have supported us with
repeat funding, demonstrating our strong grant stewardship and the impact we are delivering
through the programmes we support. However we are currently operating in a highly competitive
fundraising environment, which means acquiring new supporters is challenging. For the past few
years we have been investing in the team and building the capacity of the organisation,
strengthening our systems and processes, in order to scale our work and impact in the coming years.

We have robust safeguarding and whistleblowing policies in place, and ensure that our partners also
have a safeguarding policy in place that meets a minimum recognised standard and is in line with
the principles of our safeguarding policy.
We have zero tolerance against discrimination in and out of the workplace. This include5
discrimination or unfair treatment towards our beneficiaries and partners in East Africa, our staff.
donors and volunteers.
Policy on Reserves
The trustees have identified that it is prudent to hold a balance of unrestricted funds in order to:
l. Ensure continuity of the charity's activities and delivery of programmes in Africa in the event of
unforeseen circumstances;
2. Fulfil legal obligations in the unlikely event that the charity ceases to operate:
3. Maintain an additional level of unrestricted funds to enable the charity to take advantage of
future eventualities that may arise requiring rapid support.
Based on the above policy, the Trustees have calculated that the desirable level of free reserves is
£150,000 made up of 3 months UK expenditure, I months of future overseas expenditure and an
opportunity fund of £25,000.
At the balance sheet date, the charity held a total of £448,392. This was split between £244,030 of
restricted funds and £204,362 of unrestricted funds (free reserves). The designated fund wa5
allocated to cover the ongoing costs of transition. The reserves policy will be reviewed in 2025 to
ensure it continues to meet the needs of the charity.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
CHASE Africa (Community Health and Sustainable Environment)
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended
31 December 2024 which are set out on pages 18 to 35.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with
the requirements of the Charities Act 20111'the Act'l.
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charity are not required to be audited and are
eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity's account5
carried out under section 145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the
applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 14515llbl of the Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in
an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their
opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance
that an independent examination can provide. Consequently l express no opinion as to whether the
consolidated accounts present a 'true and fair, view and my report is limited to those specific
matters set out in the independent examiner's statement.

Basis of preparation
Community Health and Sustainable Environment meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS
102. Assets and liabilities are initially recoEnised at historical cost ortransattion value unless otherwise stated
in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the ability of the charity to continue as
a going concern. The detailed budgets and management controls that are in place, alongside the number of
regular, repeat donors that CHASE Africa has built up, demonstrate that the charity can continue as a going
concern without breaching the reserve policy of the charity.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general
nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be
received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be
reliably measured.
Grants recelvable
Grants are reco8nised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds, any conditions linked to the grants
have been met and the funds are received.
Investment income
Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the
dividend due. Accrued interest on monies invested is recognised in the accounts as it accrues to the
investment.
Expenditure

settlement Is required and the amount can be measured reliably. Costs are allocated to the applicable
expenditure headinE that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed
