THE DOHNAVUR FELLOWSHIP CORPORATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2021
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".
Objectives and activities
The charity was set up in 1947 in order, firstly, to help support the work of the Dohnavur Fellowship in India, where a large orphanage and a rural hospital were fulfilling the first three objects of the charitable company as stated in the charitable company’s memorandum and articles of association, i.e. saving children from moral danger, training them to serve others, and relieving suffering and making God’s love known to the people of India especially through the medical work.
This has been done by: managing donations and legacies received by the charity and forwarding funds when required to India; in various ways publicising the work in India and promoting prayer support; supporting the leadership in India in the development of the work of the Fellowship and to this end facilitating visits to and from Dohnavur. Secondly, the charity was set up to provide for retired missionaries of the Dohnavur Fellowship who had given their lives to such work.
The Dohnavur Fellowship Corporation ("DFC") is a completely separate entity from The Dohnavur Fellowship India which is registered in India under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act. The charity in the UK (The DFC ) was set up to help support the charity in India which is self-governing. The Dohnavur Fellowship Corporation in the UK maintains regular communication with The Dohnavur Fellowship in India. The work in India is supported by donors in other countries, including India, as well as by the Dohnavur Fellowship Corporation in the UK.
Public benefit
T he trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission ' s general guidance on public benefits . Further regard has been given to the specific guidance on the advancement of religion for the public benefit. The Dohnavur Fellowship Corporation's objects comply directly with three of the Charities Act's descriptions of "charitable purpose":
-
"the relief of poverty" ,
-
"the advancement of religion" and
-
"the advancement of health or saving of lives"
The trustees ensure that these purposes are met as the charity exists principally to provide financial support to the Dohnavur Fellowship in India, where a large orphanage and rural hospital are situated serving the people of Dohnavur and the surrounding region.
As the main objectives of the charity are to support the work in India and to provide for retired missionaries of the Dohnavur Fellowship, donations and legacies to the charity are all credited to the general fund. After administrative expenses have been met, funds are forwarded to the fellowship in India as required.
Achievements and performance
From the beginning the policy of the charity has been to make the work in India known but not to ask for funds, trusting God to supply what is needed through those who are interested.
The charity has continued to support the Dohnavur Fellowship in India, including the children's home and hospital. During the year 2020-2021 a total of 47 (2019-2020: 56) children up to the age of 18 have been housed, clothed, fed and educated, while 36 (2020: 27) other young people remain in full-time education beyond the age of 18, though most spent a large part of the year at home because of Covid closure of schools and hostels. In March 2021, the whole community (children, staff, disabled adults and retired Indian workers) numbered 218 (March 2020: 235).

THE DOHNAVUR FELLOWSHIP CORPORATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2021
In March 2020, the hospital closed to all external patients because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Hospital statistics for 2020-2021 show 30 (2019-2020: 607) in-patients. All in-patients were DF India residents, and 22 out of the 30 were Covid-19 patients. There were 6,768 (2019-2020: 25,430) out-patient attendances, including 332 (2019-2020: 11,179) dental patients and 700 (2019-2020: 1,900) leprosy patients. The resident doctor and DF nurses continued to treat residents of the DF for minor ailments throughout the year. The dental practice was partially re-opened a few months ago.
A total of £ 4,800 (2019-2020: £4,800) has been paid by the charity in allowances to support retired missionaries. There were no repairs to the leasehold property.
A total of £199,079 (2019-2020: £214,684) has been sent in remittances to the Dohnavur Fellowship in India. Additionally, the sum of £5,335 (2019-2020: £540) was sent to the Santhosha Vidhyalaya School in Dohnavur to support the purchase of computers.
The investment assets of the charity are to fund the UK office function and held to provide income for the support of the retired missionaries but are also used to provide funding for the Dohnavur Fellowship where surplus to this requirement. The charity is not financially dependent on any one donor and gifts and donations are received from the charity's many supporters. The amount of legacy income varies from year to year. Funds are adequate and available to meet the needs of the charity. No specific commitments have been made either to the work in India or to the retired missionaries.
Financial review
The trustees have reviewed the funds position at the balance sheet date. The total level of funds at 5 April 2021 was £4,424,423 (2020: £3,737,514). The results as shown in the Statement of Financial Activities compares favourably with 2020, as in 2021 there is an overall net surplus of £686,909 (2020: surplus of £70,557). This has arisen due to a significant increase in the value of our investments since the previous yearend date.
At the year end the investment fund held within designated funds had a balance of £3,580,441 (2020 - £2,808,426) and the balance held in other designated funds and the general unrestricted funds amounted to £842,839 (2020- £928,323). £9,500 is required to meet working capital requirements and represents about 3 months of all funds' expenditure excluding remittances to India. The remainder is being held for the development of the future work in India.
The trustees' policy is to retain sufficient reserves in the investment fund to generate funds on a long-term and on-going basis for:-
- 1) Subsistence and support in current and future years for retired missionaries and secretaries. 2) Maintenance of the office, including staff salaries when needed.
3) Other needs of the work including provision for travel for Indian workers.
If income from the investment fund is surplus to requirements some of this may be transferred to the general fund in order to be available for transmission to India. The trustees will review the position of the investment fund and reserves annually.
Investment policy
The trustees' investment policy is to ensure that the pool of money held within the charity is invested prudently and profitably over the long term for the charity's objectives and for the benefit of the Dohnavur Fellowship . The aim is to provide a balance of income and capital growth through a low risk strategy. All of the charity's investments are currently invested with COIF Charity Funds under the management of CCLA Investment Management Ltd. The allocation and performance of the investments is kept under review .

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2021
Risk management
The Risk Register is regularly reviewed by the trustees, with such a review usually taking place in September. The principal risks identified that would potentially have the most impact on the work of the charity continue to be: (a) a significant reduction in donor and legacy income; (b) unavailability of the administrator, for example, due to illness and (c) the Government of India blocks income from abroad. The Risk Register was once again reviewed and updated during the trustees' meeting held on 4 September 2021. The trustees monitor these risks and take steps to protect the charity's position.
Plans for the future
The financial position at 5 April 2021 is satisfactory. The trustees have no plans to change the charitable company's aims and key objectives for the future or to make any fundamental changes to the ways in which they aim to achieve them. The trustees looked into being more direct in talking about current funding needs, through the ‘Rani initiative’, with good results. A website to better inform the public of the work of the Dohnavur Fellowship has been set up. This is called “Friends of Dohnavur”.
The catchment area for assisting new children through the Dohnavur orphanage, as reported last year, was halved, through the division of Tirunelveli district into two districts: Tirunelveli and Tenkasi. The changing face of rural India due to the coronavirus pandemic is creating new challenges and vulnerabilities in children in areas surrounding Dohnavur. During the many months of Covid lockdown, the Dohnavur Fellowship continued to review their child focused outreach and projects under their Vision and Mission statements. The Dohnavur Fellowship is redesigning areas for children, the young adults and the elderly in compliance with the Indian state rules. New post-Covid projects to assist local children, the young adults and the elderly are being planned. The DFC is very active in supporting this important process, to ensure that the purpose and mission of The Dohnavur Fellowship is relevant to the changing times.
Structure, governance and management
The DFC is registered in the UK as a charity with registration number 232510 and is a company limited by guarantee with company number 00428678. It was established under a memorandum of association which set out its objects and powers and it is governed under its articles of association.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
S E Wavre (Chair) P A Anderson J M T Carlyon R A Manning R L Saunders (Resigned 20 March 2021) J A Woolcock (Resigned 22 June 2020) S R M Gill M Packianather (Appointed 24 October 2020)
Ultimate responsibility for the governance of the charity and the funds it is entrusted with lies with the board of trustees who meet at least twice a year to review the activities and financial position of the charity. New trustees are appointed from time to time by the existing trustees to ensure that the board of trustees reflects an appropriate mix of skills and abilities. The appointment of any new trustee is approved by an ordinary resolution of the company. Procedures are in place to ensure that any new trustee has the necessary induction and training to be able to understand how the charity works. The day-to-day work of the charity is done by an administrator, appointed by the trustees, who works in consultation with the Chair and other trustees.
The trustees' r eport was approved by the Board of Trustees.

The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The charity has three designated funds, the investment fund, the publications fund and the Santhosha Vidhyalya boys' hostel fund.
The investment fund provides income from long-term investments that is used principally for the charity's duty of care for former Dohnavur missionaries and other UK-based workers in need. This income also finances the work and administration of the DFC in the UK. Surplus income from these investments is used to support the Dohnavur Fellowship in India.
The publications fund is for the management of royalties, copyright fees and the sale of Dohnavur related publications, including books, DVDs and CDs.
The Santhosha Vidhyalya boys' hostel fund was set up by the trustees in March 2016 to facilitate directed giving by the charity to support the building of a boys' hostel at the Santhosha Vidhyalya, a boarding school within the Dohnavur compound providing education for the children of Indian Christian missionairies.
