President
Namaste an d
Jai shree
sh ree Krishna
Krish na
I would like to begin by wishing
you all a very Happy Diwali and a
prosperous New Year.
Now in my second year as the
Treasurer, I would like to express
my gratitude to the Pratinidhis
and hope to continue to serve the
Samaj to the best of my ability.
It would not be possible to carry
out this task without the hard
work by Rajnikantbhai Mistry from
Leicester and Bhupendrabhai from
Wellingborough as my assistants. I
‘‘I express my sincere
appreciation to Jay
Mistry of London for
excellent advice and
support as our accounts
examiner...’’
also express my sincere appreciation
to Jay Mistry of London who has
continued to provide excellent
advice and support as our accounts
examiner.
This year we have made further
improvement to our financial
management system. In terms of
financial activities, there has been a
mix of surplus and deficits from SPA
(UK) events. The deficits are largely
due to falling attendances whereas
the events with good participation
have continued to be self-financed.
I am very pleased to say that
Prajapati Sandesh was back in
surplus this year after a small deficit
the previous year. We hope that
you will continue to support this
publication by submitting adverts,
congratulations and Shradhdhanjalis.
The third Seniors Sneh Milan was
extremely well attended this year.
One of its aim was to raise funds for
the Nepal Earthquake survivors, and
I am very pleased to say that our
Seniors raised approximate £3,595
on the day. Well done to our Seniors.
In the previous year, our chosen
charity was Water Aid. With all fund
collection concluded, SPA (UK)
presented a cheque for £18,996.51
to Water Aid on 20th September
2015 at the Pratinidhi Meeting in our
London Samaj hall.
We will continue to self-finance our
Samaj events and to support our
chosen charities. I hope that you will
continue to support our Samaj by
way of attendance and donation.
The Nairobi Trust Fund’s income
has continued to be used to fund
charitable causes through ITF. The
current value of the fund at the
end of the financial period stood at
£107,788 of which £10,199 is available
for charitable use.

Treasurer, SPA (UK) - 2015-2016
Prayer is not a ‘Spare Wheel’ that you pull out
when in trouble, but a ‘Steering Wheel’ that
diverts the right path throughout your life!
