THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 When we are busy raising funds, creating new programmes and ensuring our staff, trustees, ambassadors and partners are all on board with our constantly evolving plans, it is easy to forget the stories behind the impact we make on the lives of the individuals we work with. In just the last month alone I have had conversations with football playing former gang members, mothers of Ukrainian refugee children showing their gymnastic skills, visually impaired rugby players feeling the embrace of the wider rugby family and autistic fencers achieving things they could not have dreamed of, all of whom have shared with me how much our brilliant coach mentors have changed their lives. Phrases such as '1 don't know what I would have done without The Change Foundation, remind us that we change lives and often change families. Stories of our young people becoming the main breadwinner in a family are common and they often become an inspiration for siblings and friends. I hope that the core of our work is to create an environment where young people can safely dream about their future and then find the support to try new things, build new skills and feel the power of personal achievement. It is often said that to succeed you need hard work, skill and the right support and I think it would be fair to say that our young people bring the hard work and the skill, and we bring the right support at the right time in their lives. Quite rightly most of our work is focused on employability as almost everyone needs a rewarding way to earn a living and this year new golf, fencing and basketball programmes have all become important vehicles for creating change. Our aim is to create an environment for our staff and our young people in which change is embraced as a creative force and the last 12 months have certainly been a time of change for the charity with over 50 years of experience leaving us with the retirement of brilliant colleagues. Carol Driver had been with us for 34 years overseeing the development of our Centre and HQ in the London Borough of Sutton. Carol was also an HR expert; finance strategist and wise counsel and she left a big gap for us all to fill. Alex Bassan had a profound effect on the charity in a different way over his 17 years with us, initially as a young person on our apprenticeship programme. Alex was the best coach many of us have ever worked with and became the best trainer we had seen too. He then evolved into a brilliant corporate partnership manager and created the fundraising events and challenges we continue to follow today. Carol and Alex will be greatly missed but their work lives on in the creative environment they helped create. A great example of this is in the work of our inspirational colleague, Caine Rochford, who has led us all in creating and activating our comprehensive 'green action plan,. Inspired by Caine, we have greatly evolved our operations over the last 12 months as we aim to be carbon neutral by the end of next year and his sustainability update on our achievements to date is included in our annual report for the first time. We also said goodbye to our Communications Manager, Anna Heslop, who transformed our marketing and communications and was a brilliant support to our whole team. Anna's positivity and creativity is sorely missed but many of her creative ideas live on in our everyday work. Creativity also flows from our wonderful group of 'Ambassadors for Change,. Led by the inspirational Will Taborn, our 36 Ambassadors introduce us to potential new corporate partners, find participants for our fundraising events and challenges and use their ne￿orkS to find work placements, internships and apprenticeships for our young people. We would not be the charity we are without this group of generous and supportive individuals. Creativity also comes from our ever-growing group of corporate partners, including Berkeley Homes, Permira, St James's Place, Hunza G, Best4Systems, the Mayfair Collective, Cayuga, New World Tech and Coutts, asking challenging questions and working with us on creative solutions that help us become more efficient and also more attractive for future corporate partners to invest in. In the not too distant past, corporate partners could often be more accurately described as corporate funders but nowadays we do not have any of those types of Page 2

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 relationships. I think that one of our key strengths is our partnership management and our aim of listening to each partner to understand what they need out of our joint work, creating inspirational volunteering opportunities, co-creating new ideas and celebrating our successes together. l am also really proud of our support of other charities, often smaller, younger versions of ourselves, who are setting out to make a differen￿ and who we can help save time and money by sharing some good ideas and avoiding some not so good ones. We often find ourselves starting off by giving the same initial advice- describe the impact of your work as creatively as possible, look to get better not always bigger and get yourselves some ambassadors- they will change your world. As well as our current 36 Ambassadors for Change, we also have a brilliant group of Young Ambassadors, often graduates from our programmes, who want to put something back by advising us on how to make our recruitment, delivery and impact measurement more efficient and more effective. They work closely with our coach mentors who exist on the front line of our work, supporting and encouraging our young people to unlock their aspirations, take on new challenges, meet new people who can help them and work with us to turn their hopes into a reality- This time last year we reported orr three new pilot programmes which we had pilot tested Fencing 4 Change aims to reduce social isolation amongst young people aged 11 to 16 with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Rugby 4 Change teaches year six children in the last year of primary school how to stay safe on the street and in particular how to identify and keep away from the danger of county lines drugs gangs and Golf 4 Change, which supports young people into their first job, including employment in the golf sector. All have now been scaled up and are providing support between them for over 300 young people. This year our Innovation Fund has supported the piloting of our first basketball programme, Work Hard Play Hard, which focuses on improving the mental health of young people from across our programmes who have told us they are struggling with remaining positive and focused. Led by Yvette Santana, it has been a great success, and we will be scaling it up in the year ahead. I reported at this time last year that we have a new, and only the third, president of the charity, following in the esteemed footsteps of Sir John Major and Phil Tufnell. Theo Sergiou became known to us in his early teens, initially through our blind cricket programme. He found safety and support with us and having faced some struggles in his teenage years has now flourished into a brilliant young man who is now studying PPE at Oxford University. Theo's creativity and drive has had a very positive effect across the charity, and he has made some inspirational presentations in the past year to our young people, our staff and our supporters. It's been a wonderful year and I feel so fortunate to be part of such an amazing charity. The year ahead Our three strategic priorities remain the health of our young people, the development of their skills and securing their first job and these outcomes will be delivered through 12 different sports and 14 different programmes. As we start to develop a new strategy for 2025 onwards, these priorities are likely to remain central to our work along with the development of a longer term tracking system for a significant sample of our programme graduates, which will aim to check in with them after one year, three years and five years, so we can develop a more in depth understanding of the long-term impact of our work. We are also very interested in finding out more about the 20% of young people who don't graduate into employment, education or training each year and understanding the type of support we can put in place to secure a positive outcome for each of them. Our Research and Development Team will be key to finding the answers to this question as we aim for the ultimate goal of 100% of our young people graduating into employment, education or training. To this end, 'The Agency,, the expanded version of our Inclusive Employers, Ne￿ork, will aim to double in size in Page 3

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 the year ahead both in terms of the number of young people it supports into rewarding and sustainable employment and the number of supportive employers promoting job opportunities and on the job training to our young people. Plans are already being developed to turn our ￿ntre in the London Borough of Sutton into an innovative employment hub for young people from across the Borough and also from across London - a place where they can be supported to find their first job, get support to set up their own business or find the right training course or apprenticeship to set them on their way to the career of their dreams. As with everything we do, we will aim to share our developments with other charities, youth groups and sporting bodies in order to maximise the impact of our experience and learning. This will include our use of virtual reality on a growing number of our programmes, the testing of Al across our work and an increase in the use of tech in different parts of our charitable operation. Much of this will be tested through our Innovation Fund, which has now invested over £250,000 in piloting new programmes for some of the most marginalised yet inspirational young people. This investment in new ideas has enabled us to secure over a million pounds in funding over the last five years to scale up fully tested pilot programmes. For the first time in 2025 we will also have a year-round schedule of 'green' volunteering opportunities for our corporate partners to support us with, including carbon neutral fundraising challenges and sustainability planning with our staff and young people. It will no doubt be another year of learning and growth for our brilliant charity- Andy Sellins, CEO AL￿t us The Change Foundation is an award-winning charity that uses sport to change the lives of marginalised young people. We deliver tsrgeted long-term education interventions for the most vulnerable people in our communities through coach mentors with first-hand experience. providing regular sport, personalised mentoring, and work- related opportunities. The Change Foundation was founded in 1981 following the Brixton Riots in south London, using cricket as a tool to promote community cohesion and peace during the conflict in the heart of the local community. For over 40 years we have pioneered the use of sport for social change education programmes, helping children and young people around the world, which are designed and led by the communities we serve. Guided by our young people, our work focuses on three key outcomes through sport.. health. skills and employment. We achieve these outcomes by providing life changing daily programmes that combine sport, youth work and social work for the most vulnerable in our communities. In inclusive and safe spaces, young people can access daily mentoring, both face-t(Fface and virtual with inspiring coach mentors. Each year young people's achievements are recognised at the annual Change Foundation Young People's Awards. Who we are We are bold, flexible, innovative, curious and collaborative and we come from a diverse range of backgrounds. We do not follow the crowd and we encourage each other to experiment with new ways to solve social problems. We are a group of Young Ambassadors. full and part time staff.

Crucially, our programmes are run by a brilliant group of Coach Mentors who have first-hand experience of the issues our young people are facing and who therefore understand what they need to do to unlock their aspirations and talents. What we do We use sport to help our young people feel safe, feel like they belong and feel they are valued. Through working with us they grow to understand that through their commitment and hard work they can unlock a host of personal development opportunities and ne￿orkS of support to help them maximise their potential and start a fulfilling work life. We also believe in helping other charities, youth groups, corporates and sport for social change organisations to increase their capacity and their effectiveness and this is a core element of our work, which we undertake throughout London, across the UK and around the world. Why we do what we do We believe strongly in providing opportunities for young people who might not normally have had access to them to develop their skills and experience and to work with them to develop their aspirations. We do what we do because we want our young people to fulfil their potential and live happy and fulfilling lives and we do it through listening, joint decision making and by showing our young people that by working as a team and creating a group consensus, great results can be achieved. How we do what we do We use sport as the vehicle to develop our young people's mental, physical and emotional health, their personal and professional skills and their overall employment and career prospects. Our Young Ambassadors guide our work and our Research and Development Team ensure our work remains relevant, highly targeted and continues to break the mould in terms of unlocking the power of sport to create social change.

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 we rn￿Ure chan Identify the social need: The Change Foundation takes social action by responding to a need in the community. We build an understanding of the context of the social need by gaining the perceptions of young people, using the existing evidence base and understanding the political and social environment we are working in. Work with young people using a pilot test methodology: The Change Foundation design sport for social change programmes by testing a variety of sports and adapting their rules, trialling impact measurement tools, understanding the resources required and questioning assumptions. We do this by asking for, acting on young people's ideas, and evaluating them by delivering 6- 12-month pilot programmes. Recruit and retain: The Change Foundation invest time and resources in developing recruitment plans to ensure we work with the most marginalised young people in our communities. We work in partnership with local authorities, community groups, other charities and 'on the street, recruitment. The Change Foundation spend time matching the right programme for the right young person and learn about root causes that affect attendance. Deliver programmes: The Change Foundation deliver sport for social change programmes that are flexible, adaptable, and inclusive where you can 'learn as you go., We take this approach because social change programmes are complex and unpredictable they require supportive environments, dependable Coach Mentors that lead by example and new and innovative coaching methods that weave in learning. Provide opportunities: The Change Foundation recognise that change is personal, and each young person drives their own change at their own pace dependent on their relationships, motivations, behaviours, values, and aspirations. We provide a range of opportunities for young people once they graduate from our programmes including paid employment, one to one career development support, involvement in alumni programme, work experience opportunities and mentoring. Innovate and share: The Change Foundation systematically reviews impact through reflective practice, openly discussing successes and failures with all stakeholders and amending methods based on learning. We then share our learning with the international sport for social change sector helping them to innovate in their communities. We do this by training their coaches, consulting with national governing bodies and engaging partners to deliver programmes with regular, ongoing development support. Giving back: The Change Foundation change the lives of marginalised young people through the power sport, many of whom go on to inspire other young people to also change their lives. The Change Foundation approach to impact measurement is based on the following principles: Authentic: We capture and translate authentic data from our young people, sharing knowledge and experiences that are relevant and true to the need we are addressing. Creative: We design creative impact measurement tools that practitioners relate to and engage our young people effectively to provide high quality information. Consistent: We measure impact in a systematic way while young people are on our programmes and after they graduate to regularly track the difference we are making. Storytellers: We share the impact of our work as often as is possible with all stakeholders, taking an initiative-taking rather than reactive approach to sharing our stories. Holistic: We believe that impact measurement is a coaching technique that is fundamental when delivering social impact programmes thus it requires the same preparation. innovation and training as delivering the sport itself. We use a mixed methodology to measure the impact of our work.. Page 7

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Basic demographics." We use an information management system to upload an individual profile for each young person we work with, capturing basic demographics. Self-reflection: We use creative joumey tracking tools designed by our Coach Mentors and young people to measure the progress of our young people while on a programme. Coach observations: We use coach observation checklists that are used at the beginning and at the end of a programme to provide a baseline measurement against an end of programme assessment of each young person.

Alumni offer: Each graduate of The Change Foundation programmes is invited to become part of our alumni programme where they can continue to gain support and opportunities and enable us to track their progress beyond their programme engagement.

Young Ambassadors take on individual roles that inform the charity's strategy and programmes for the benefit of young people. Our rammes The Change Foundation uses sport as a mechanism not just to engage marginalised young people, but to deliver measurable and sustained social impact.

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 WATER Water usage at HQ is mainly used from toiletslshowers and the kitchen, but during 2022 we had very high temperatures which dried out the cricket pitch, so we used a lot of water that year during the summer due to the need to keep the cricket square alive and healthy. That meant that in 2023, we had a lot less water usage due to increased rainfall and less extreme heat. BIODIVERSITY At HQ we have a lot of green Spa￿ for plants to grow, this gives insects and birds foodlhabitats in a very urban area. We do not use any pesticides or weedkiller on these pla￿S to keep it healthy, safe and allow it to grow. We do use pesticides and weedkiller on the cricket pitch as it is needed to be tidy, cut and weed free to be a safe and regulated cricket pitch. Our achievements in the last 12 months Tested our sustainable sports educational module in India and in the UK. Created new sustainability volunteering days at our ￿ntre for our corporate partners. Created our first environmental sustainability policy. Appointed and trained our own sustainability champion. Created a plan on the findings of our first Zellar sustainability report (Zellar is a sustainability app that helps with emission and sustainability reporting and planning). Our plans for the next 12 months Secure funding to install electric car chargers at our ￿ntre. Decrease our flights emissions by 20Yo. Decrease our car mileage by 20 %. Review and action our recent green assessment visit to HQ. Ensure all staff and young ambassadors undertake sustainability training. Provide paid leave for staff to undertake volunteer sustainability work. Partner with an environmental charity as a way to offset some of our carbon use. Set up a new 'Sustainability Fund, as part of our Innovation Fund. which our young people, staff and partners can secure funding to test an idea that makes us more sustainable. We are fortunate to have seen a number of young people graduate from our programmes and go onto positive pathways for their own personal or professional development. The following are five testimonials of our alumni= Case Study 1: Creative. Supportive. Community I live on a West London council estate, where I have lived for the past 16 years with my mum and my four brothers. As a kid I was very naughty at school, but I had been through a lot of bereavement, and I felt like I was not understood at all. The lack of understanding tumed to stereotypes when I moved to high school headteacher told me that because l am mixed race and live on a council estate, I will be pregnant by 16. That racism is something I have had to continually endure Sin￿ leaving school. I first met The Change Foundation through the Street Elite street recruitment. I gave Elle my number and she consistently messaged me to come and try Street Elite and see how it works. After a few weeks I gave in and went along. When I got there, l absolutely loved it, and I did not miss a single session after that. After the Street Elite Festival in the summer, I realised that I wanted to become a Coach Mentor. As I had been turning up to every single event, I was offered a pla￿ on the Street Elite Academy and from there Page 13

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 I kept volunteering for all different events until I was offered a part-time contract a few months later and in September I became full-time. The Street Elite Academy was amazing as we got to coach and design our own social impact game with our own distinct messaging and creativity which I really loved I felt like I was on top of the world. Although the Street Elite Academy was a highlight, the team away day last year really stands out to me as at the time I kept to my cliques, and I did not have that many relationships within the team. Coming back from the away day I was a much more confident public speaker and I felt like I was actually now a part of the team, and I had their support which was huge to me. l am very happy with where l am in life now compared to where I was last year. I suffered really terribly with my mental health last year, to the point where I was sectioned in February. l am so grateful, so much happier and so passionate about the work l am now doing, not only for TCF but with my youth work too, as I have gone from not wanting to be here to enjoying life. I will always back TCF no matter what. That is what I would tell a young person l am recruiting. I would say we're a family. We are not traditional coaches, we work to actually make a change and we value you as a person and your voice. We are caring and empathetic and you will have the best support team. It could be one of the best opportunities of your life. In the future, I want to continue to develop within and outside the charity- I want to get to work with everyone and try new programmes. l also want to get my level 2 Youth Worker qualification. My life goal is to be a HART paramedic and when I do that, I will know I have made it. Case Study 2: Helpful, Exciting, Rewarding l am from Peckham which is not the most ideal area to grow up in but with the help of The Change Foundation, I have found a way to turn my life away from where some people would predict I would end up. I still feel like there is a stigma around what Peckham brings and unfortunately it defines too many people. Every day is a battle in terms of making it a good day and ensuring you are not defined as a person by where you are from. Despite that, I like to help others and try new things and if I could do that every day that would be brilliant and thankfully through working for TCF I do. I have always said it is one of the bestjobs I have ever had. Ross and Dan were my introduction to TCF. They were recruiting in Peckham, and it was very enticing, a session of football and £15. 1 stsrted going every week, and they were really lovely, and we built a bond from there. It was during the employability phase of Street Elite and Ross was asking us what we wanted to do, and I told him that I wanted to do what he was doing. I loved what he was doing and how he was helping us, and I knew that was what I wanted to do too. I started volunteering with Ross and coming to sessions until I got offered a zero-hour, and then a part-time contract. Hosting the 40 Year Anniversary Gala was amazing and really stands out to me from my time with TCF. Being on stage, wearing a shirt, with cameras and everything was a really good moment for me, knowing people appreciated me and my story and wanted me to share it. Excited. That is how I feel about life at the moment. l am excited about what the future can bring and how I can improve. l am proud of where l am going but there is a lot more things I want to achieve, and I know TCF will support me. As a coach your main focus is young people but l am still a young coach myself. Meeting with Andy, Shedaine, and Ross helped me to realise that they are there to help me too, that l also need feedback and reviews too. Sitting down with these people, with their experience, knowing they care about me was really important and it was good to know l am being helped too. I tell new people that they are going to get as much help as possible. You can be open and transparent with us, you are going to enjoy it, and if you work with us, you will get results. Page 14

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Becoming a better coach is next in my plans. l am working hard with Ross to become a better coach and a better person and that is what l am striving for. l am focusing one step at a time, becoming a better coach with TCF, and outside of that, I want to keep furthering my fitness journey as I become a better person. Case Study 3: Empathy, Powerful, Connection l am now the National Programme Manager at the Football Foundation and a very different person to the one who got involved with The Change Foundation 8 years ago. l always try my best to support people and help them as much as I can, people enjoy being around me and the fact I can empathise with them. I try to be as approachable as possible because I know how important that was for me when I first joined TCF and the culture around TCF I have tried to replicate in my personal life. When I first met TCF, I was not very confident and I had become involved in some not very positive relationships but through TCF I have become much more confident and aware of the opportunities available to me, and without that I would probably be somewhere completely different now. I first met TCF through the Team Habana Leadership Programme. At the time I was coaching part-time and studying sport at college, but I had never met an organisation like TCF before. They were so welcoming, it really helped me to come out of my shell and showed me how powerful young people can be as I struggled a lot with self-esteem issues when I was younger. Brian Habana's personal involvement on the programme was so impactful and the space to develop leadership qualities has been a catalyst for what I have gone on to do in both my career and my personal life. Some of the best things l experienced in the charity was just the level of creativity within the organisation and behind the different programmes. TCF acts as a melting pot for ideas and that is really amazing. One particular experience which stsnds out for me was the International Working Group on Women & Sport in Botswana. Hearing the stories of change from across the world and the challenges faced in different countries, some similar, some unimaginable made me feel like part of something bigger which was amazing. For a relatively small organisation, TCF is really suc￿sSful at linking with broader causes and making you feel like part of something so much bigger. l am excited but a bit unsure with how life is going at the moment. l am still really open to any new opportunities that come my way and there is many to get stuck into both at work and in my personal life. There is a lot of doom and gloom in the news at the moment and people's health in general is getting worse, so I want to understand how the sport for social change sector can collectively work to deliver changes to health and wellbeing that are bigger than our individual initiatives. Going forward, I want to weave and interlink environmental concerns to sport ft)r social change as our health is intrinsically linked to our environment. I want to continue to help support young people into the charity sector, as TCF did for me, as the next generation is so socially conscious and so talented, they can make a huge impact on the challenges facing society. As they seek more purposeful and fulfilling jobs, the charity sector and charities like TCF will become even more suited for them. Case Study 4: Progressive, Positive, Development Before I worked for The Change Foundation, I worked at the same supermarket store for four years and I was going nowhere. After that, I stsrted working for a broadcasting company which suited me much more as I got to work with computers and embrace my creativity, however, the work was too linear and when my contract ended, I knew I wanted to do something else. That is when I met The Change Foundation. The government Kickstarter scheme helped me to get an interview with TCF and when I did some research on it, I realised it was very close to where I was born and raised in Carshalton. I could not believe that I did not know it Page 15

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 existed up until that point given all the work it does, and I quite liked the idea of working for someone like the charity. Now I work at HQ fulltime, and I have made a lot of personal and professional developments which makes me glad l am here. So many little things stand out to me about my time with the charity but what l am most proud of is being appointed Green Officer. It was a complete surprise, and I was very privileged to find out that my work was not only considered good enough but was being recognised as being beneficial to everyone. Vicky, the Chair of the Trustees, reached out to congratulate me and wanted Andy and I to help pilot sustainability reporting for Laureus Sport for Good IGlobal sport NGO founded under Nelson Mandelal, vthich was further affirmation of my work and helped me to visualise the progress l am making. Working for the charity is not only good for the charity but good for me too as I get to see the change we help create. Knowing that if I had an amazing idea for a programme or the green team, I could bring it forward to anyone and they would help me see it through. This has been really helpful for me both inside and outside of work as it has helped to quell any doubts or worries that I have. In previous jobs l used to wonder about how long I had be there for or when I would get fed up, now I think about what I can propose next year or what I can do to help the charity for years to come. This mindset has allowed me to take time for myself and put this time into my hobbies or my social life so that l am doing things for me as well. If I were to recruit a young person to the charity, I had tell them that although the coaches are paid, they are not just doing it for money. They want to help people and make a change because they enjoy the work that they do. The coaches are open and honest, and they look out for what is best for you, and the programmes are there to develop you whether that is with a skill, knowledge, or self£mpowerment. In the near future, I want to take my own idea from fruition to completion and having something great come out of it. I want to see my own idea come to life and see the good that has come out of it. Case Study 5: Welcoming, Life-changing, Opportunity l am 22 and a DJ from Poplar, East London. I work a few jobs, an assistant coach mentor with The Change Foundation being one of them. I work with lots of young people as I love interacting with people and learning new skills. I'm not the sportiest, I have always been much more creative and despite TCF being a sports charity, it has allowed me to embrace my creative side through my work as a coach mentor. TCF'S Street Elite recruitment was my first experien￿ of the charity. I was at my local market and Ross and Jordan approached me, to see if I was interested in joining the Street Elite gym sessions. Although it sounded almost too good to be true, I went to a session and loved it. It really did motivate me to get back into the gym and I knew I had always have some form of support as even when you are finished with Street Elite, their support still exists. When the second round of Street Elite came around, l asked Shedaine if I could come, and she said of course. I got some more young people involved and from that I was given the opportunity to become an assistant coach mentor. I have learnt a lot from the other coaches, and it has been so interesting learning how to motivate yourself and others for sport. The way we interact with young people and sport is different due to the messaging behind all the activities which is great to be a part of and I can really channel my creative side. Street Elite Women in Tower Hamlets is particularly memorable to me. Around Mother's Day, we got the ladies to make a bouquet of flowers, with every flower having a deep and emotive meaning such as "have you ever felt love in your life?" Some of them really got emotional and it was lovely to see because we create such an open and real connection with them, they feel that they are in a safe space and that really stands out to me. l am searching for something at the moment but l am very happy with life. I have got my own young people's project starting soon, Square One Sessions, which aims to give young people access to lyric workshops, recording studios and industry professionals which l am really excited for, and I think will fill that gap that I feel like l am missing. Page 16

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) EXECUTIVE COMMirrEE'S REPORT {CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Every young person I recruit to a TCF programme, I tell them that they will a￿ayS have support from us. Even if they do not join a programme, we can still support them I have helped young people with Cvs or job applications before because they could not make the day of the session. It is important to put them at ease and let them know that we are there for them. l am really enjoying being an assistant coach mentor at the moment, l enjoy the different work it offers me. For now, l am happy with where life is taking me, and I feel like l am in a safe spot, but I cannot wait to see where my Square One Sessions and my DJ Career goes.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit.. The information given in the Trustees, report (incorporating the Directors. report} for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements., and The Trustees, report (incorporating the Directors, report) has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (CONTINUED) Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and section 44{1 }(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assuran￿ about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complian￿ with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below= obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the entity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements., enquiry of management to identify any instances of known or suspected instances of fraud; enquiry of management and those charged with govemance around actual and potential litigation and claims- enquiry of management about any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations., reviewing the design and implementation of control systems in place. testing the operational effectiveness of the controls- performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness.. evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the nomal course of business,. reviewing accounting estimates for bias- reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance- reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we wll be less likely to become aware of InStan￿S of non-complian￿. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion. omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. www.frc.or .uklauditorsres onsibilities. This description fomis part of our Auditor's Report. Page 26

In the event of the Charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the Charity. The address of the registered office is given in the Charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The nature of the Charity's operations and principal activity is to change the lives of young people through sport and dance. Accounting policies 2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) Accounting and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. The Change Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the Charity and rounded to the nearest pound. 2.2 Funds General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Executive Committee in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Executive Committee for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial ststements. Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund. Page 32

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Accounting policies (continued) 2.3 Income recognition All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity which is the amount the Charity would have been willing to pay to obtain ServI￿S or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market., a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of re￿ipt. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations re￿iVed under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. For donations to be recognised the Charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performan￿ before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the Charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the Charity- Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred. Investment income on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity. this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. The Charity receives government grants in respect of furthering its charitable objectives. Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the Charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be reliably measured. If entidement is not met then these amounts are deferred. Other income is recognised in the period in which it is re￿1vable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service. 2.4 Expenditure recognition Expenditure is recognised On￿ there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third paty, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity- Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned betrrfeen those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the assefs use. Expenditure on charitsble activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. Page 33

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Accounting policies (continued) 2.4 Expenditure recognition (continued) All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 2.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation Tangible fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost. Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is provided on the following bases: The Cricket for Change Centre 2 % on building cost Indoor school 3.330/0 on building cost Freehold land Not depreciated Sporting and Office Equipment 25°/o on depreciated cost and Fixtures Buildings Fixtures and Fittings 10°k on depreciated cost 2.6 Stocks Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 2.7 Debtors Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 2.8 Liabilities and provisions Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has re￿iVed as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost. Page 34

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Accounting policies (continued) 2.9 Financial instruments The Charity only holds basic Financial Instruments. The financial assets and financial liabilities of the Charity are as follows= Debtors - trade debtors, other debtors and grants receivable are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost, this can be seen at Note 16. Prepayments and accrued income are not financial instruments. Cash at bank - is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value. Liabilities - accruals are dassified as financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost, this can be seen at Note 17. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash settlement has already taken place and there is simply an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument 2.10 Taxation The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 2.11 Going concern The Executive Committee have assessed the use of going concern and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue. The Executive Committee have made this assessment for a period of one year from the date of the approval of these financial statements. The Executive Committee have therefore concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial these financial statements. 2.12 Employee benefits When employees have rendered Servi￿ to the Charity, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entilled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that servi￿. The Charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable. Page 35

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions= The Charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below..

THE CHANGE FOUNDATION (A Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 18. Ststement of funds (continued) Designated funds Fixed Asset Fund The fixed assets are not easily realisable and therefore, for clarity, are not represented by the general reserve. The balance carried forward is equal to the year end net book value of fixed assets without continuing restriction. Restricted funds are those held for those subject to continuing restriction. The transfer from general funds in the year represents the net of additions of new fixed assets and the depreciation charged on the assets still in use. The Innovation Fund The Change Foundation Innovation Fund was created from £50,000 of unrestricted reserves in 2017. The award winning Fund aims to create a platform for our inspirational team to bring their ideas to life, with priority given to projects which= Align with the Charity's key objectives., Increase our effectiveness to help us reach new standards and take our work to new levels., or Promote creativity and innovation of approach in relation to our sector. The fund is available to all staff to apply for, either on their own or in partnership with other members of staff andlor in partnership with Trustees, ambassadors and our young people. The grant making panel is currently made up of the TCF Chair, TCF VI￿ Chair and TCF CEO. To date, the Fund has facilitated some of our innovative pilot programmes such as Visually Impaired Rugby, Boxing 4 Change, and our Small Grants Programme for our young programme participants (nominal contributions towards specific promising career development activities)- Restricted funds The Cricket for Change Centre This relates to the cricket pavilion and grounds at Plough Lane which was funded by a restricted grant. The fund is redU￿d in line with the depreciation of the buildings. Indoor School This fund relates to capital grants received to develop the indoor cricket school (renamed The Paul Wickham Indoor Centre}. The balance carried forward reflects the funds with continuing restriction, and is reduced each year in line with depreciation of the capital asset. During the year we received a donation of 4 x Hand dryers for our facilities at the Centre that benefit our stakeholders. ScrewFix felt that replacing the use of blue towels to hand driers sat well within their own charitable purpose which is to support projects that will fix, repair, maintain and improve properties and community facilities specifically for those in need within the UK. This donation had a value of £1,000 and was expensed in the year. Disability Programmes Fund Funding for projects that improve the lives of people with a disability remains a priority for The Change Foundation.
