I still feel very much a ‘newbie’, not least because heading to the Christian Aid Board in January to represent Christian Aid Ireland, I managed to fall off a kerb within yards of the London office, breaking my ankle very thoroughly. I am profoundly grateful for the support given by our two vice chairs Carol Ackah and Hazel Baird assisting me throughout the year but also stepping in to fulfil Chair responsibilities while I was out of commission. My arrival in this post coincided with the preparatory discussion taking place in Christian Aid globally with regard to the new Global Strategy for 2019 - 2026 launched in the spring of this year. The Global Strategy emphasises the key Christian values on which Christian Aid is based – standing together for dignity, equality, and justice – directing us to get right back to the heart and calling of the organisation. I quote the document precisely: “To this end we reaffirm our shared vision, mission and core values precisely: of dignity, equality and justice, underpinned by love. We stand firmly in our roots as a faith-based organisation, anchored in thousands of church congregations and a wide network of trusted partnerships with organisations across the world who hold the same values.” The analytical framework outlined is that we commit ourselves to the following three priorities: • Poverty – reaching those most in need; • Power – addressing the root causes of poverty; and • Prophetic voice – speaking truth to power and building local and collective agency. We journey together as Board members, staff, volunteers and supporters of Christian Aid Ireland as we too engage in fresh focused thinking, recalling with thankfulness our own faith-based roots and recognising with renewed impetus our role within this wider global strategy. Jesus’ words as recorded in John’s gospel come to mind: “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.” Rev Dr Liz Hughes Chair, Christian Aid Ireland Combined Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2019 5 Rev Dr Liz Hughes Christian Aid Ireland Message from our outgoing Chair A sustainable world. I have so much to thank Christian Aid Ireland for: being ahead of the game on issues that matter, being a thought leader and thinking globally and acting globally as well as locally. Greta Thunberg and her worldwide school protest movement on climate change was given a platform at the UN climate talks in Poland last December. The hundreds of thousands who protested recently in London as part of ‘Extinction Rebellion’ movement brought climate change back to the news headlines, again forcing political leaders to give account of what they are doing to save the planet, and to justify why their targets are not more ambitious. Politicians are being held to account by mass protests demanding that more must be done. Christian Aid has been championing the concern for climate change for years. Through our relationship with partners in the most vulnerable parts of our world, we see the devastation our western lifestyle is having on the poorest of the poor. This is why we use the phrase ‘climate justice’. Our Big Shift global campaign demands that all people have access to sustainable and affordable renewable energy, demanding that the World Bank contributes to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal of universal energy access for all by 2030, and more locally each supporter of Christian Aid is invited to ask the high street banks to stop investing in fossil fuels. This is the day to day work of Christian Aid Ireland. It’s not a flash in the pan, it’s part of Christian Aid’s DNA. Christian Aid Ireland is not only dealing with the issues that matter most, it is leading the way with careful research, renowned expertise and honoured credibility built on decades of commitment to Christian Aid’s core values. Those values are Christian values as Jesus taught that God’s law is summed up in Loving God and Loving our neighbour as ourselves. I have been privileged to contribute to the work of Christian Aid for the past eight years as Chair of Christian Aid Ireland Board. I am privileged to continue that commitment to Christian Aid Ireland as a supporter in whatever way I can. A special thank you to those of you who share that commitment. The Rt Rev Trevor R Williams Combined Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2019 7 Rt Rev Trevor Williams Christian Aid Ireland Message from our CEO What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8) Welcome to Christian Aid Ireland’s 2018/19 annual report. I hope you enjoy reading about our work and getting to know more about who we are as an organisation, what we stand for, believe in and what we do. During the year we said goodbye to the wonderful Rt Rev Trevor Williams after eight years as Chair and welcomed Rev Dr Liz Hughes as our new Chair. It has been a real privilege working alongside Trevor and I know he remains a faithful friend and supporter. It has also been a pleasure getting to know Liz and helping her get to know us. I wish her every blessing in her role. It has been a busy and demanding year in Christian Aid Ireland with highs and lows. I made my first ever visit to the Amazon in Brazil to see a programme supporting women suffering from gender based violence. I was inspired by the dedication and expertise of the women leading this church project and humbled to listen to the stories of women they have helped. I had also expected to be inspired and moved by the sight of the Amazon itself. Unfortunately, I was moved to tears for the wrong reasons. Instead of vast swathes of rainforest, I saw hundreds of logging trucks on the road; great swathes of land cleared of trees and replaced by soya; and fields and homes submerged under lakes as a result of flooding from the nearby hydroelectric dams. I saw devastation, not awe-inspiring natural wonder.

  • Q102.9FM (Londonderry)
    Section 355 Review of Output: Q102.9FM (Londonderry) When a local commercial radio licence undergoes a change of control (this includes licence transfer), Ofcom is required, under section 355 of the Communications Act 2003 (the Act), to undertake a review of the effects or likely effects of the change of control in relation to: • the quality and range of programmes included in the service; • the character of the service, and; • the extent to which Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act is performed in relation to the service. Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act relates to securing the inclusion of an appropriate amount of local material, and a suitable proportion of locally-made programmes in the service. Under section 356 of the Act, where it appears to Ofcom from its review that the change of control would be prejudicial to any of the three matters listed above, then it must vary the licence, by including such conditions as it considers appropriate, with a view to ensuring that the relevant change of control is not so prejudicial. In doing so, any new or varied conditions must be such that the licence holder would have satisfied them throughout the three months immediately before the change of control. Ofcom is required to publish a report of its review, setting out its conclusions and any steps it proposes to take under section 356. Where Ofcom proposes to vary the licence, it is required to give the licence holder a reasonable opportunity to make representations about the variation. On 4 December 2014, a change of control took place at Northern Media Group Limited (NMGL) which held the local commercial FM licence for the Londonderry area (AL155).

I am delighted to report that we have made substantial progress in developing the effectiveness of Christian Aid Ireland as the Churches Development Agency. We have only been able to do this with your support and because you have played your part with us. Thank you for your involvement with and support of Christian Aid Ireland. The Christian Aid family reached the ripe age of 70 in 2015. Christian Aid was founded by the Churches in Britain and Ireland, compelled by love and justice to respond to the broken and impoverished communities of Europe after the Second World War. Despite the progress for some in the past 70 years, many remain in desperate need. The richest 1 per cent today control 40 per cent of the world’s wealth, while the poorest 50 per cent own just 1 per cent.
