Trustee’s meeting11[th] August 2021
We approved the minutes from previous meeting (4/12/2020)

At the beginning of 2020 visits were made to Uganda, Kenya and Malawi for the purpose of holding leaders seminars, visiting different projects and the publication of study books in Lugandan (Uganda) and Chichewa (Malawi)
Owing to the pandemic it was not possible to travel to other nations so ministry continued via internet, using zoom and also making videos for YouTube. We able to give some financial support to different situations as funds became available; this is reflected in the accounts

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2020, which are set out on pages 5 to 8.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
(i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
(ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section (iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:
(i) the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
(ii) the accounts did not accord with the accounting records
(iii) the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
