## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
During the period, the charity has focused primarily on the foundational work required to begin delivering its charitable activities. While we have not yet been able to launch active programmes due to delays in securing funding, we have made significant progress in the following areas.

The charity has spent considerable time developing and refining our strategic plan to ensure that our future activities will be impactful and aligned with our charitable objects. This planning has involved defining clear goals, identifying the target beneficiaries, and establishing frameworks for measuring the success and public benefit of our initiatives.

We have established key partnerships with organisations and stakeholders who will play a vital role in supporting our work once it commences. These partnerships will enhance the delivery of our programmes and extend the charity’s reach.
