CLIMATE EMERGENCY in Mozambique and Angola
Both countries continue to suffer greatly from extreme weather conditions. All the Dioceses have been responding in a wide variety of ways that MANNA has been supporting. MANNA recognises that these severe weather emergencies are becoming the 'new normal' and we need to find ways together to develop the church's resilience.
ARCHBISHOP JUSTIN visits Cabo Delgado, Mozambique
Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby visited Maputo to celebrate the inauguration of the new Province IAMA and went on to visit the northern Diocese of Nampula, spending time with displaced people who had fled the violence and hearing their stories. From this, a pioneering trauma support project is emerging.
12 BISHOPS come to Lambeth conference
A momentous occasion that all the new Bishops and Dioceses were inaugurated in time for 12 Bishops to come to the UK for the Lambeth conference in the summer.
SUSTAINABILITY from the Mustard Seed Fund
MANNA gave two grants towards a bakery in the Diocese of Cristo Rei and a pharmacy in the Diocese of Divina Esperanca - both in Angola as income generating projects so they can work towards selfsufficiency.

INVESTMENTS AND POLICY ON RESERVES
In 2018 the Trustees agreed to invest unrestricted legacies received during 2018 with CCLA – in their investment fund and property fund. The objectives identified for the investments were to:
-
prevent inflation from eroding the real value of the capital
-
maximise the investment income received without exposing the capital to significant investment risk
-
adhere to the Church of England ethical guidelines (or similar).
The Trustees also agreed that 62.5% of all investments held would be placed in a designated fund and the income used to support projects that promote the Dioceses future self-sufficiency (known as the “Mustard Seed” fund). The income from remaining investments is to be used to offset the running expenses of the charity.
Movements in the valuations of the assets held were:
Investment income on the above investments totalled £18,381 (31/12/21: £19,307). Of this £11,488 was income designated to support projects that promote self- sufficiency (the “Mustard Seed” fund). The other investment income is interest on bank accounts which totalled £92 (2021: £6).

TRANSACTIONS WITH TRUSTEES
No Trustee received remuneration as part of their role of Trustee. Trustee’s expenses were reimbursed on a receipted basis.
Donations made to the charity by Trustees during the year totalled £1,900 (2021: £2,840).
PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Trustees believe that the charity passes the Public Benefit Tests set by the Charity Commission. There are identifiable benefits for the advancement of religion, the relief of poverty and the furtherance of education across all Dioceses supported by the charity. These benefits are available to all who live in Mozambique and Angola, whether Anglican or not.
Some of the positive outcomes of this charitable support are described in detail on the website and in the regular magazine. Other positive outcomes are described by the close communication with Bishops, Diocesan staff through emails, ZOOMs, reports, whatsapp and webinars alongside in country visits.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees are committed to managing, and if practicable to reducing, the major risks that they have already identified. They also seek to identify new risks as they arise and subject them to the same process of management and reduction.
The Trustees are aware that MANNA is dependent on the co-operation of local church officers and auditors in Mozambique and Angola to ensure the proper accountability of funds spent locally. Receipt of audited accounts, showing how funds have been spent, is required by the trustees each year.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
There were no Contingent Liabilities over the year to 31/12/22 (2021: nil).
