STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
For the public benefit, the relief of adults and children, displaced by conflict, or disaster with medically recognised limb difference or amputation, or brain, spinal, nerve injury, who are unable to afford services.
Significant activities
Through the donations the charity have received, they have established workflows for prosthetic & orthotic fittings for patients in areas where there are accessible.
In relation to the public benefit requirement, the charity have undertaken risk assessments to ensure all beneficiaries meet the obligations to receive treatment.
The charity assess each patient with a scientifically designed PMR assessment with the Centre for Blast Injury at Imperial College and the Centre for Pain Research at the University of Bath.
The team of experts are volunteers and do not receive remuneration for this work, and the trustees have no personal benefit.
Since inception, the charity is on track to fit with prosthetics & orthotics to approximately 60 patients. This includes components that have been purchased from the UK (35 lower limb including 15 child lower limb and 5 upper limb – child).
The charity are now adapting their work to receive components as donations and have them fitted on patients, conducting feasibility studies and pilot projects for clinical outcomes.
The charity have presented their work at the ISPO World Congress 2025 and have attracted numerous manufacturers, including the best supplier in the UK and are currently in talks to receive component donations.
The charity are now looking to trial a new knee developed by Imperial College on patients to conduct a feasibility study, and these components were donated.
Grantmaking
During the period the charity have received interest from the Prince & Princess of Wales on current projects and the charity will be updates in due course to raise awareness and to demonstrate the jigsaw of P&O in the UK and beyond that support.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Volunteers
The charity have a debt of gratitude to the volunteers, who are PMR specialists and certified prosthetic consultants who are internationally recognised. Without them, the clinical approach would not be possible. Our back-office volunteer (a medical professional in the NHS) who diligently ensure patient records are kept in a safe and secure database and the contributions they all make to the charity without taking any benefit deserves recognition.
Future projects will reveal a lot given what the charity have learnt, and hope to receive grants, as well as conduct more pilot projects on components received.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The charity were tremendously lucky to be selected to receive funds from a fundraising event for works, this event alone contributed almost £45,000 to funds. Through this the charity was able to purchase components for 40 beneficiaries including 20 children.
Collaborating with the team of experts, Imperial College, the University of Bath, has enabled the charity to create a PMR (physical, medical and rehabilitation) assessment that is adapted to blast injury victims, and is on track to become internationally recognised.
The chief volunteer CPO is on the ISPO board, and his experience is invaluable. Together they have been able to diagnose the issues with the beneficiaries who come with injuries which either have never been seen before by medical professionals and with comorbidities.
The charity have fitted a group of patients with prosthetics, including single mothers who have lost 5 children in the war, and helped them regain their life and livelihood.
The charity is the first one to fit a spinal cord injury patient, who was aged under 10.
The charity are working towards creating training programs to build the expertise that has been destroyed in the war.
Based on the financials the charity is in the process of fitting up to 60 patients with the funds they have received in the financial year.
The charity has had their first components donated, including a new knee developed at Imperial College, and an advanced foot from French manufacturer Proteur. This will be part of a pilot project with patients in Belgium who are para-athletes.
The charity has received interest from the Prince and Princess of Wales who stated they would be interested to receive updates.
The charities work has been accepted to be presented at the ISPO World Congress 2025 in Stockholm.
FUNDS HELD AS CUSTODIAN FOR OTHERS
We are a charity that has very limited overheads, we have patients waiting for treatment and will be utilising these for them.
Our current funds are from private donations, a small amount was a corporate donation through donation matching.

All the accounting records have been made available to you for the purpose of your audit. We have provided you with unrestricted access to all appropriate persons within the company, and with all other records and related information requested, including minutes of all management and shareholder meetings.

The financial statements are free of material misstatements, including omissions.
-
The effects of uncorrected misstatements (as set out in the appendix to this letter) are immaterial both individually and in total.

The company has satisfactory title to all assets and there are no liens or encumbrances on the company’s assets, except for those that are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
-
All actual liabilities, contingent liabilities and guarantees given to third parties have been recorded or disclosed as appropriate.
Docusign Envelope ID: AD7710F2-30B9-4165-A371-1E051FB25ACE
- We have no plans or intentions that may materially alter the carrying value and, where relevant, the fair value measurements or classification of assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements.

We believe that no further disclosures relating to the company's ability to continue as a going concern need to be made in the financial statements.
We acknowledge our legal responsibilities regarding disclosure of information to you as auditors and confirm that so far as we are aware, there is no relevant audit information needed by you in connection with preparing your audit report of which you are unaware.
Each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that you are aware of that information.
Yours faithfully
