Report The origSn$ and development of the Association The Little Vvay Association dates back 19 the middle of the 20th century, when a young Irish woman. MBry Doohan. left her family home in rural Ireland to live and work in London, following the end ol the second world war. She was a devout Catholic and initialw wanted to devote her life to nursing. However. In order to earn a living, she look an office job. continuing her $pirilual. humanitarian and Church interests in her spare time. She made many conlacts with like-minded Calholics in London and, when one of hèr brothers who wa5 a Catholic miysionary priest in the Philippines ttsld her of his parish's urgent need to replace the roof of their church following a typhoon. M15s Doohan tried her hand at fundraising. She quickly discovered a great talent lor this. gathering Will￿n9 helpers from her parish and from the church associations of which she was a member. When the roof in the Philippines was successfully funded. Mary and her helpèis widened their scope and continued lo fundraise for succession of projects in needy parishes in the missions. Word spread amongst British and Irish missionary priests and religious working overseas, and this led lo an increasing number of requests for financial hèlp. 11 was not long before the volume of requests. the demands of fundraising, and the organisation of 3 large number of volunteers. became so great that Mary had to devote all of her time lo her new vocation. She gave up hei office job and. after fulfilling the legal requirernents. The Little Way Association was set up as a re9islered charity. Mary was adamant that all the money given by donors for m15sionary projects must be sent to the projects in full. so she had to find another way of paying for the inevitable costs of administration. Mary felt a guiding providence in her life, A generous supporter was inspired to give her the means tts make an initial payment on a disused convent. with a chapel. In south London, to serve as the new Association's headquarters. The building was large enough to provide office space and also had outbuildings which Mary and her helpers converted into a hostel for priests and students temporarily in London. The income from the hostel provided the money needed lo pay off the remaining debt on Sacred Heart House. A yèarly raffle was organised to cover administration costs. This was replaced by the dedicatèd administration fund which still èxists and for which regular appeals are made. Mary's determination Ihat all donations for the rnissions were sent out to them without dèdudion is still scrupulously adhered to. As the 20th century progressed, the number of requests from missionaries for grants continued to increase and, fortunately, the number of generou5 donors also grew. The volume ol work and the need for continuity eventually led to the recruitment of paid staff to join her volunteers. A few helpers who had initially worked as volunteers in their spare lime were able lo become full time workers when offered a modest salary. Little Way centres were opened in Walsingham. Lourdes, Fatima and Knock, to provide information on St Therese and on missionary needs. and in some cases to offer accommodation to pilgiims. These centies continue to be an Important aspect of the Associatitsn's outreach. Religious congregations, Myanmar In her final years, Mary Doohan collaborated wth Rt Rev Nicholas Mang Thang, Bishop of Hakha Diocese, Mysnmar. to found and establish the Little Way Sisters of St Therese ILWSTI and also the Little Way Missionary Priests of St Therese ILWMTI, both religious ctsngregalions based in Myanmar and also working in neighbouring countries. Bishop Mang Th3ng subsequently became Archbishop ol Mandalay, a post from which he ha$ now retired. The Association supported the construction in 1995 of a building for the sisters in Kalaymyo and the LWST were established as a public association in 1997. In 2000. the A5$0ciation supported the building of a mother-house and novitiate. also al Kalaymyo. and in 2004 the sisters. constitution and rule were approved. Page 3 The Little Way Association TTU$tees' Report For the sisters, the establishment of an LWST convent in the Philippines to serve as a base for participation in advanced training and the attainment of professional qualifications opened the doors to a wider range of apostolate for the Sisters. They now have many small convents in Myanmar. usually of four or five Sister5. that serve people in rural areas, providing education or medical eare. Some eonvents have been dedicaled lo an exclusively ctsntemplative way of lrfe. too. especially in busy cities, providing a haven of prayer and Eucharistic Adoration in the hustle and bustle ol urban life. There are now more than 200 Little Way Sisters in vanous dioceses in Myanmar. Perhaps the most consequential milestone for the Litile Way priests was when the LWMT were chosen by the Catholic Bishops, Conference of Myanmar officially as their National Missionary Society. By that time, there weie several young men who had achieved priestly ordination, and some 34 LWMT piiest5 now work in Myanmar, Cambodia, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea. The LWMT has been able to chotsse a Father General Superior, a Procurator General and six Prièst-counsellors. as the numbers are now viable for a degree of self-gtsvernance as a Congregation. Fundraising and administT?tion The main fundraising activity 15 the mailing of a booklet and newsletter 10 Supporters twice a year. There are also advertisements In the Catholic press in Britain and Ireland. The Association's website promotes the cause online and enables online donations. The hands-on, labour intensive rnethod5 of administration of the second half of the 20th century have been replaced by 21 st century technology. Computerisation enable5 the small team of volunteer5 and paid staff to handle a large volume of work efficiently. Mary Doohan died In 2008 and was succeeded by the vice president, Dr Norman Waldron. who died In 2012. He in turn was succeeded by the current president, Maria Grcar. who worked closely with the late Miss Doohan and the late Dr Waldron. Plans for future periods The Little Way Association intends to continue Its work of 3SSlSting many Roman Catholic projects in Africa. Asia lincludino India) and Latin America and also in making the spirrtuality ol St Theresè of Lisieux more widely known, loved and followed. We are implementing a strategy of contacting Roman Catholic Archbishops and Bishops in Latin Arnerica who have not recently. or who have never. sent project proposals for consideration by the Association. The As50C13tion will inform. or remind, the Archbishop5, or Bishops, tsf the work of the Association and give general guidelines as to the genre and size ol projects the Association assists. This will hopefulSy encourage them lo contact the Association rf they have projects in need of help.

The Mission Chapels fund supports isolated villages or groups of Calhgli¢s who were trying to build a chapel for their community and who were too poor to buy some or all of the materials needed. In many cases, the local people build the ftsundations and walls but come to Us lor the rtstsfing, which can be the most expensive part of the project. Communities are thus provided with a dignified place for the ¢elebration of Mass, which can a150 be used for devotions, catechesis and other parish activities. Thé Seminarians fund helps with the rnaintenance costs of young men who wish to train for the priesthood but whose families are ttso poor to contribute.

Mass offefings help priests in mission land5 to meet basic needs such as food, clothing and shelter. Also, the poor and deprived people often turn to their clergy lor assistance. As well as conveying our donors. individual intent'ons and stipends lo mission priests, we have been able lo ensure that we fulfil our promise to have Mass offered regularly for all our supporter5. living and deceased, both in our chapel and around the world. Natural Disasters Fund The Natural Disaster fund helps provide first aid, food. medicines. clean water, hygiene kits and temporary shelters to victims ol catastrophic evènts like floods, hurricanes. typhoons, drtsughts and earthquakes. In the year under review, many regions ln Asia suffered from devastating floods after heavy rainfall. In Ker81a. at least 123 people were killed after heavy rains triggered massive landslides. Many of the victims worked on the tea and cardamom estates and were likely asleep in their makeshift tents when the landslides 5tru¢k, Sending rivers ol mud and boulders crashing down upon them.

Funds weie sent to Caritas Pakistan lo provide non-perishable food items to 1,147 affected families, including medical kits. protective dothing and educational supplies for children. Pa9e 8 The Little Way Association Trustees. Report In Sri Lanka the unusually heavy rainfall intensified into a cyclonic storm. The flooding that ftsllowe(J re5ulled in fatalities and displacement of over 300.000 people who were forced to flee their homes and seek temporary shelter in public buildings. Funds were sent lo the Diocese of Batticaloa lo provide dry food rations and essential household goods, such as mattr¢s$es and cooking utensils, to 500 families living in coastal and ltsw-lying areas. In Myanmar, a 7.9 ma9nitude earthquake struck the Sagaing Region causing extensive damage, particu13rly near the epicentre. Over 5,350 lives wÉré ltsst. thousands sustained injuries. and hundreds vanished in the tragedy. Funds were sent to the Archdiocese of Mandalay lo meet the irnmediate survival needs of affected families. through the provision of food, water, hygiene kits and emergency shelter. Ethos and trends Since the Association'5 foundation, Catholic practice in Britain and Ireland has declined. making our future less than assured. We continue to receive notifications of our donors, deaths and, while such sad ÈvÈnls may yield legacy income, it obviously indicates the permanent end of a donor-charily relationship. Global events since the conclusion of the year upon which we arè reporting have confirrned the importance cif charities. resetves to meet new. unexpected needs. As covid appeared lo be coming under control. so the world economy took a further turn for the worse. That, combined wrth international eonflicl. means that prices are rising and some populations are displaced. In this un¢ertain world, the Association's reserves are being drawn upon to help the needy, and we coniinue to petition our loyal donors (themselves no doubt feeling the pinch) for assistance. Prayer for the Missions and d&votion to St Therese of Lisieux The Association Is not just an overseas aid charity. It also exists to foster knO￿edge of. and devolitsn to. St Therese of Lisieux. Our publicity materi31 contain$ many references to her and to her spirituality. Realising how much missionaries need the support of prayer, The Little Way Association helps to fulfil this need by regular Mass, recitation of the Rtssary and Adtsration of the Blessed Sacrament at Sacred Heart House, and by encr>uraging prayer for the Missions at the Little Way Theresian Cenlres. As well as having Mass offered daily for all our supporters, living and dÈ¢ea$ed, we encourage requests for St Therese's protection and intercession for our benefactors, staff and beneficiaries. We confidently enlrusl our future to our patroness and to Gtsd's Pfovidence. Reserve Policy It Is the policy of the trustees to maintain reserves at a sufficient level lo rneel missionary needs and to provide help in the event of natural disaslefs and wars. The charity aims to achieve a level of reserves to approximately a minimum of twelve months of average expenditure.

In preparing the financial 5tatÈments, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concem, disclosing, as applicable. maller5 related to going concern and using the going concern basis ol accounting unles5 the trugtees either intend to liquidate the chaiity tsr lo cease operations. or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor's re5ponsibilitle$ for the audit of the financial statemants Our objectives are tts obtain reasonable assurance abovt whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when Il ex1s15 Misstalements can arise from fiaud 01 error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate. they ctsuld reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. The extent to which the audit was considered capable ol detecting irregularities. including fraud. is detailed below.. Page 12 The Little Way Association Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of The Little Way Association Wè obtained an understsnding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable lo the charity and the seetor in which it operates. and ctsnsidered the iisk of acts by the charity which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. These included, but were not limited to, the Charf(ies Act 2011. employment law, and the Charity Commission'5 regulatory requirements. We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be the override of controls by management and misappropriation of grant income. Our audit procedures to respond lo these risks included.. o Enquiries of management and those charged with governance around any instances of non-compliance wlh laws 8nd regulations or whether they had any knowlèdge ol actual, suspected or alleged fraud. We corroborated the results of our enquiries tts relevant supporting documentation. o Assessing the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations considered lo have a direct material effect on the financial slalement5 or the opeialions of the charity through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence", o Identifying and assessing the de519n effeclivene55 Ot controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud., o Identifying and testing journal Èntries, in particular any manual entriès made at the end of the reporting period., and o Assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of potential bias. In addition. we completed audit procedures to conclude on the compliance of disclosure5 In the Annual Report and Financial Statements with applicable financial reporting requirements. These audit procedures were designed to prtsvide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free from fraud or error. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due lo fraud 15 higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error and detecting irregularities that result from fraud is inherently more difficult than detecting those that result from error. as fraud rnay involve Gollusion, deliberate concealment. forgery OT Intentional misrepresentations. We also communicate with those eharged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any sigffificanl deficiencies in internsl control that we identify during our audit.

P8ge 23 The Little Way Association Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2025 Recognition and mèasurement All financial assets and liabilities are initially rneasured at transaction price (including transaction costsl, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured al f8ir value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transath.on costsl, unless the arrangement constilules a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured al thè present value of the future payments disGounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the slalemenl (>f financial posrtion when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends eilher to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Financial assets are derecognised when and only when al the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial a55et expire or are settled, bl the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or cl the charity. despite having retained some, but not all, Significant risks and rewards of ownership. has transferred control of the asset to another party. Financial liabilities a￿ derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, eancelled or expires. Impalmient An Impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated a5 thè difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cashflows discounted at the asset's original effective Interest rate. For financial instrumènts measured al cost less impairment an impaiTment is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the best estimate ol the amount that the Charity would receive for the asset if it were to be sold al the reporting dale. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised through ttie unwinding of the discount. Impairmenl losses are recognised in profit or loss. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in irnpairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
