Following Heal Nepal funding from the UK to Nepal

Heal Nepal supported leprosy and lymphatic filariasis diagnosis, treatment and prevention across 11 districts. Both charity files give the same actual start date, October 22, 2019. The project combined repair through treatment and prevention through earlier case detection. Read the project description.

Which organizations and activities connect

The UK Aid Match manager, Mannion Daniels, reports outgoing funds under GB-COH-04105827-AIDMATCHII. The manager’s records name the UK charity and give its full project identifier GB-CHC-1050327-NP-HEAL-19. The Charity Commission’s register now lists charity 1050327 as The Leprosy Mission Great Britain. The project file uses its England and Wales name. Open the UK charity’s filing history.

The UK project names the Nepal partner by its organization reference, NP-SWC-17775, and uses a shorter activity reference, NP-Heal-19. The Nepal publisher’s full project identifier is NP-SWC-17775-NP-Heal-19. Its project file identifies the UK charity as the funding party. The downloads retain the literal organization and activity fields for each record.

From the grant manager to the UK charity

The fund manager reports GBP 1,872,894.37 in 13 outgoing rows. The UK charity reports GBP 1,872,894.36 in 13 incoming rows. 12 amounts agree and 5 pairs share the same transaction date.

The first pair refers to the same quarter. The fund manager reports GBP 49,479.89, and the charity reports GBP 49,479.88. The UK file also puts an extra space in 12 provider activity references. See the raw fields in the downloads and UK Aid Match’s guidance on reporting incoming funds.

From the UK charity to the Nepal partner

The UK file reports 7 onward disbursements totaling GBP 1,701,841.72. The Nepal file reports 10 incoming rows totaling NPR 265,414,037.15. The table uses dates and the periods described by the publishers to suggest where the reports may correspond. An exact conversion or settlement would require transfer records.

Two Nepal receipt descriptions identify test transfers. The published UK rows have no clear counterpart for them.

Budgets and reported expenditure

Both charity files report the same four budget periods, ending October 21, 2022. The amounts are in the publishers’ own currencies. Each budget is a revised, committed estimate. The project activity fields give no actual end date.

Read the four budget periods

Period	UK charity	Nepal partner
2019-10-22 to 2020-03-31	GBP 121,222.09	NPR 13,209,928.14
2020-04-01 to 2021-03-31	GBP 463,260.15	NPR 110,541,289.68
2021-04-01 to 2022-03-31	GBP 985,964.57	NPR 97,761,416.99
2022-04-01 to 2022-10-21	GBP 415,022.65	NPR 35,436,657.68

The UK charity separately reports GBP 153,435.1987 in expenditure. The Nepal partner reports NPR 118,066,726.48. These sums reflect eight IATI code 4 rows per charity. A project-wide cost would require the underlying accounts to resolve coverage and overlaps.

Leprosy detection before the project

Nepal’s public health roadmap records 3,282 newly detected cases nationwide in fiscal year 2018/19, or 11.16 per 100,000 residents. This is a surveillance count from before the project. The financial records give no amount for individual districts. The national figure alone cannot answer how much need the project reached. Read the roadmap, page 4.
