As stated above, our full 'Governing Document' and 'Objectives' can be viewed on the Charity Commission's public charity register, www.charitycommission.gov.uk We keep the costs of running the charity to the absolute minimum. The charity has to pay bank and internet charges and we may need to charge the economy return air fare for 1 trustee to visit Uganda each year. Apart from these costs, 100% of donated funds go directly to the charity's work. We claim no personal expenses whatsoever. We usually meet monthly and follow an agenda, which includes a review of the previous meeting's minutes and action points, and a Treasurers report. We hold information meetings to which all supporters are invited. Our financial year runs from March 1st to February 28th (29th). Our Chairman is elected in March each year. |

Our six trustees are all actively committed to the life of Queens Road Baptist Church, to which the charity is linked. We will always act with integrity, avoiding any conflicts of interest and will ensure the charity is well run and solvent and achieves its objectives within the framework of charity law. We have a duty of care to use our personal skills and experience to the full and will take professional advice if necessary. We each have Criminal Records Bureau clearance and have adopted the child protection policy of the 'Churches child protection and advisory service'. We are committed to the work of Global Challenge and our partnership with our Ugandan friends |
