Chair’s Introduction

I was honoured to take up the role of Chair of the Board in January and am grateful for the legacy left by Richard Hawkes, OBE, who expertly led Motivation for the past nine years. Under his guidance, our strategic approach is more deeply rooted in humanitarian and inclusion values, focusing on disabled people’s empowerment through decentralisation of decision-making and leadership and inspiring lasting change. This approach has been instrumental in fostering sustainable development and ensuring that our efforts are informed by the communities that we serve.

It is clear that global development is now experiencing unprecedented changes that directly influence our mission. Progress in reducing extreme poverty and other development goals has stagnated and the challenges are compounded by reductions in international aid, demographic shifts and humanitarian and environmental crises. These factors threaten to push millions more into poverty, making the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals increasingly difficult.

In this context, our vision of disabled people’s full inclusion and equitable participation can appear more distant than ever. That is why we maintain a sharp strategic focus on working where and how we can have maximum sustainable impact. We prioritise initiatives that align with the governmental policies and priorities of the countries we work with and that build on the work of our partners who are already working within communities we serve.

Our goal is to ensure that positive change is embedded and continues beyond the lifespan of individual projects, fostering resilience and independence in an eco-system which allows disabled people to thrive and contribute.

Reflecting on the past twelve months, I am proud of our achievements. They stand out against the backdrop of an increasingly challenging external environment and demonstrate our resilience and commitment to our mission, even amid economic and political uncertainties.

The way forward will continue to be difficult and so we will keep building our capacity to navigate this unpredictable landscape. This will include improving operational efficiencies, reducing costs, and accelerating our progress on the autonomy of our East Africa and South Asia offices.

We will also improve sustainability by working even more closely with national governments to harmonise our objectives with their priorities and building national income generation.

To all our donors, partners, and stakeholders – we are deeply grateful for your unwavering commitment, especially as funding becomes more competitive and constrained. Your support is vital, and we ask that you continue to back us as we sustain and expand our work, which is more critical than ever.

I am very grateful to our Trustees and Directors, who freely give their time and expertise to guide Motivation. Special thanks go to Richard Hawkes and Nigel Daniel for their generous support during my transition into this role.

Additionally, I would like to extend my thanks to Amanda, our senior management team, staff and volunteers. Their dedication, resilience and passion inspire me daily and are the driving force behind our continued progress.

David Green, Chair of Trustees

CEO’s Introduction

Motivation’s reason for being is that disabled people everywhere face disproportionate barriers to inclusion.

Despite being the world's largest minority, disabled people’s rights, needs and choices are often overlooked. Stigma, discrimination and exclusion from essential services such as clean water and sanitation, healthcare, education, employment, and community and public life are likely to be everyday experiences. Globally, disabled people’s life expectancy is a shocking 20 years less than non-disabled people.

The challenges are often even more acute for the 80% of disabled people who live in lessresourced settings.

Wanting a fairer and more inclusive world has been a shared global ambition for many years, enshrined in United Nations conventions, signed up to by 185 countries globally, and legislated for in national strategies and equality laws.

Inclusion also makes financial sense. Evidence shows that the financial benefits of inclusion outweigh the cost of providing support and countries lose between 3% and 7% in GDP if they fail to include disabled people.

That’s why this year’s cuts to international aid and the increasing political hostility to disability is both depressing and baffling. It threatens to turn back the clock on progress made for disabled people everywhere. It cuts off the huge contribution disabled people make to our societies.

Disability affects almost half the pension-age population in the UK, and most of us will feel the impact of disability on friends or family members, wherever we live in the world.

In 2025, we launched the Now More Than Ever campaign to inspire collective action in support of disability organisations and to push back against calls to deprioritise this most underserved community.

Our goal was also to demonstrate our unwavering commitment to our community and to affirm our belief that inclusion is a fundamental human right that must be recognised and realised.

Collaboration to defend inclusion is critical. Every voice counts. And when voices, organisations find common ground on things that matter to us all, and reach consensus, it works to uphold principles and values.

We will continue to work with other organisations to amplify the voices of our community of disabled people who want the right to contribute to their community, not be excluded by it. We will continue to champion these rights.

I am in awe of our community of disabled people, their caregivers, the team at Motivation and of our partners who work tirelessly to make the world fairer for all.

I want to thank everyone in our community for the amazing work you do for others.

This report reflects not only the challenges of the past twelve months but also celebrates the incredible achievements we have made together as a community.

Amanda Wilkinson, Chief Executive Officer

About Us

Glasses, hearing aids and wheelchairs – known as assistive technology or AT – are essential for a healthy, productive and independent life. In fact, they are so vital that access to AT is a human right, enshrined in the United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

But in countries like India, Kenya, Malawi and Uganda, less than 10% of people have the wheelchair they are entitled to.

And even with a wheelchair, people face a world full of badly designed buildings, inaccessible transport, discrimination and negative stereotypes.

Motivation works to change that by supporting systemic change – working with partners in governments, clinics, businesses, communities and families to find practical solutions and remove the barriers that disable people.

WE BELIEVE WE ALL HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY IN SPEAKING OUT FOR RIGHTS AND INCLUSION

Motivation Charitable Trust works with the parents and caregivers of disabled children, so they can support their child’s early development, build support networks and increase their household income.

We work with families and communities to challenge stigma and build support for disabled people’s equal access, participation and inclusion.

We work with clinical, rehabilitation and community health professionals so disabled people can access services that assess, prescribe and fit wheelchairs to each person’s specific needs and train them how to use, maintain and repair their chairs.

We work with policy and decision makers to secure and act on disabled people’s rights.

Motivation Direct Ltd (MDL), our social enterprise, designs and supplies wheelchairs so that users have a choice of products that meet their needs, suit the environment they live in, give them proper fit and postural support, are safe and durable and are affordable to buy and maintain.

MDL also designs and supplies robust and affordable sports products, so that more people can get involved in more activities, with all the fun, health and social benefits that brings.

All of the profit from the social enterprise goes back into our charity’s work.

MOTIVATION WORKS FOR A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL

We believe that should happen for everyone, everywhere, always – not just as part of charitable or philanthropic projects. So, we work to find solutions and we share evidence of what works to inspire practical, long-term change that is embedded in and owned by partners in the countries where we work.

Together we aim to break down social barriers and make a more accessible, equal and inclusive world and make sure the impact lasts well beyond the life of any project.

Our Impact

We exist to make a difference. We exist to help make sure that everyone has the respect, choice and opportunity they are entitled to.

That might be by changing everyday attitudes. It might be by building skills and knowledge. It might be through the design and provision of assistive technology (AT), such as wheelchairs.

Malawi.
Monitor and report improvements
in quality-of-life of disabled people
who participate in projects
ACHIEVED: quality of life tools developed by the University of
Bangor were adopted across many of our projects, with 120
disabled people sharing data about their experience of
changes in aspects of life such as contributing at home,
work or in the community, levels of pain or discomfort,
mood, and self-esteem since having access to an
appropriate wheelchair and support services.
Further embed the social model of
disability into our theory of change
and all programme design and
delivery
ACHIEVED: the social model is a core value and is woven
through our language, activities and the consultative
development of our 2025–2030 strategy.

POLICY AND PRACTICE: DRIVE CHANGE IN OUR SECTOR THROUGH USER-LED AND EVIDENCE-BASED ADVOCACY

Objective Achievement
Widely communicate and promote
our approach, values and learning

the core issues of climate change,
gender and the Sustainable
Development Goals as they relate to
disability
PARTIALLY ACHIEVED: we completed two background
papers the evidence around assistive technology and
climate change and assistive technology and gender.
These are used to inform and illustrate communications
and fundraising. We gathered ongoing monitoring and
evaluation data and external evaluations of completed
projects but have not had the capacity to publish them.
Learning was, however, shared via partners and sector
networks.
Develop a measure and record
opportunities to share policy- and
process-relevant learning on
disabled people’s inclusion
NOT ACHIEVED: although we shared policy and process
relevant learning via peer review of sector documents,
stakeholder meetings and key sector fora, we were unable
to develop a suitable tool to measure this activity. This has
been rolled into our 2025 strategic objectives and
priorities.
Further embed the social model of
disability approach into our comms
and advocacy
ACHIEVED: we developed and refined our organisational
tone of voice and developed language use guidelines
reflecting the social model. As above, the approach was
also rolled out via our ‘Make Space for Disability’ theme.

11 | P a g e

EFFECTIVENESS: DELIVER MAXIMUM IMPACT THROUGH OUR GOVERNANCE, MANAGEMENT AND DELIVERY SYSTEMS

Objective Achievement
Further increase diversity, skills and
experience offered by global Boards
PARTIALLY ACHIEVED: We have increased the size,
diversity and skills of the India Board. We have revised
and improved a DEI policy and have devised a
questionnaire for staff and Trustees so that we can better
benchmark and improve upon the diversity of our Boards,
team and volunteers,
Run a consultative, global
development process for the 2025–
2030 organisational strategy
ACHIEVED: we consulted 82 individuals and organisational
stakeholders, including wheelchair users, NGOs, INGOs,
governments, global sector organisations, peer trainers,
sports associations, institutional funders, private donors
and MDL customers across East Africa, South Asia and
Europe. All staff were also consulted and provided advice
and identified key activities and performance indictors
across the strategy development process.
Increase staffing and benchmark
diversity to ensure impact and
credibility, focusing growth in East
Africa and South Asia
PARTIALLYACHIEVED: We increased staffing in India and in
Africa in both programme and communication roles. We
consulted widely on best practice in benchmarking
diversity both within the development sector and with HR
and GDPR specialists and will disseminate and gather
data from our Boards, staff and volunteers in Q3 2025.
Strengthen IT, finance and HR
systems, processes and policies
PARTIALLY ACHIEVED: We revised and implemented
strengthen organisational finance manuals and have
strengthened team resources in the UK and in Kenya. We
embarked on the development of a new virtual finance
platform to be used globally to improve efficiency. The full
implementation has been delayed and will require
continued focus to achieve a successful full-team roll-out
this year.
Manage risk in global funding
environment by increasing the
diversity of funding sources
PARTIALLY ACHIEVED: We strengthened fundraising from
corporate partnerships in India and the UK onboarding
new companies as long-term supporters. However, the
funding environment remains very challenging in a
turbulent political landscape.

Fundraising Highlights

We are incredibly grateful to our donor community for their wonderful support in 2024.

In a year marked by global uncertainty and shifting donor priorities in response to the costof-living crisis in the UK and beyond, our donor community continued to demonstrate remarkable generosity, allowing us to continue our work in supporting disabled people across India, Kenya, Malawi and Uganda.

Support from the public

Our wonderful community of individual donors were an essential part of our fundraising in 2024, providing us with consistent support throughout the year. In addition:

Support from grants, foundations and corporate donors

Our corporate and grant-giving trust and foundation supporters played a vital role in our work in 2024, enabling us to deliver ambitious, long-term projects across East Africa and India. Key highlights included:

13 | P a g e

Overall, in 2024, we raised £277,899 of unrestricted income and raised an amazing £1,177,916 of restricted income. We extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all our donors, whose shared values and commitment to our mission contribute to making the world a fairer place for disabled people.

Financial Review

The results for the year are set out in the Financial Statements. The consolidated position of the charity at the end of 2024 is shown in the Balance Sheet.

Summary

Motivation saw strong levels of income in 2024, with funding in both our social enterprise and charity exceeding 2023 and 2022 levels. As profits generated by social enterprise play an important part in funding our charitable work, higher sales of wheelchairs through Motivation Direct Limited were a welcome improvement.

Grant funding received in 2024 was higher than in 2023 and spend on delivering projects increased compared to 2023.

Operating costs continued to be tightly controlled, building on the savings achieved in 2023 and we continued to defer any non-essential expenditure.

Motivation faces a further period of financial challenges, although we are confident that we can continue operating and have improved liquidity. As stated in last year’s Annual Report, in 2020 Motivation secured £0.5m in loans under the UK Government’s Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS). The two loans are repayable over five years (September 2021–26) and all repayments in 2024 were made on time.

In common with many charities and companies, the financial position remains challenging. However, the start of the year shows that positive developments for Motivation have continued into 2025. The financial outlook is considered in more detail in the ‘Going Concern’ section.

Review of financial results

The total income generated was £4.06m (2023: £3.5m), of which £2.8m was unrestricted (2023: £2.8m) and £1.2m was restricted (2023: £0.8m). At 31 December 2024, the charity had net assets of £0.5m (2023: net assets £0.4m).

The principal funding sources of the charity in the reporting period were the same as in previous years:

This supports the key objectives of the charity by providing income from a diverse range of sources.

Our largest source of income continues to be from sales of mobility products. Sales at £2.5m saw a slight increase on 2023.

Unrestricted income from donations and legacies was in line with 2023 at £0.3m (2023: £0.3m).

Overall, our income in 2024 (£4.0m) was higher than in 2023 (£3.5m).

15 | P a g e

Total expenditure was £3.9m (2023: £3.5m), of which £3m was unrestricted or designated (2023: £2.8m) and £1m was restricted (2023: £0.7m). Note 4 to the Financial Statements shows how these funds were spent.

The overall result, was a deficit on unrestricted funds of £187k, meaning that Motivation’s unrestricted reserves are showing a negative balance.

Our total restricted funds rose slightly during the year, partly due to two new projects where receipts exceed expenditure—Kenya National Manufacturing and CareTech.

Reserves and reserves policy

Motivation’s Trustees think it is prudent to hold reserves for the following reasons:

The Trustees keep the reserves policy and the level of reserves under regular review. They have set a policy with a target of three months’ total annual unrestricted expenditure on general overheads as the required level of unrestricted reserves. At the year end, this target was £0.4m (2023: £0.3m) and the aim is to increase unrestricted reserves in 2025 to a reasonable level.

An analysis of unrestricted, restricted and designated reserves comprises part of the notes to the Financial Statements.

Investment policy

The charity has no long-term investments, and its primary asset is cash in the bank. Trustees take a cautious approach towards investment, adopting a short-term, low-risk policy.

Going concern

The Trustees have assessed Motivation’s ability to continue as a going concern. They considered several factors when forming their conclusion as to whether the use of the going concern basis was appropriate when preparing these financial statements. These included a review of updated forecasts to the end of 2026 and a consideration of key risks that could negatively affect the charity.

Our core unrestricted reserves are funded from a combination of trading income through the social enterprise, fundraising income (in the form of donations and legacies) and programme grants, a portion of which is allocated to funding the charity’s running costs. The charity continues to meet all the repayments required from the CBILS loans accessed during 2020.

Regular forecasting and scenario planning ensures that there is a realistic plan to rebuild reserves to the target set in the reserves policy over an acceptable timeframe.

The Trustees also recognise that there are a number of key risks in our financial model which may adversely impact plans. These may be summarised as: a decline in income from

16 | P a g e

trading sales; falls in unrestricted donations and legacies; and a fall in programme income and expenditure leading to lower recovery of core costs.

Whilst the Trustees are confident in the plans for Motivation in 2025, they are mindful that the financial outlook is subject to change. With this in mind, they will continue to review the financial position closely and regularly. In addition, whilst the scenario planning does not indicate any immediate liquidity risks, appropriate measures will be taken if this changes.

After considering these factors, the Trustees have concluded that the charity has a reasonable expectation that there are adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and have continued to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.

17 | P a g e

Strategy 2025 to 2030

As we came to the final year of our 2021 to 2024 strategy, Trustees advised the Senior Management Team (SMT) on the organisation’s overall strategic direction between 2025 and 2030. The SMT then led a wide consultation:

Finally, the Trustees reflected on the outcomes of these consultations and reviewed and approved the new strategy.

Strategic goal, priorities and principles

Over the course of the next five years, we have set our ambition for our contribution to the ecosystems we work within in the following change goal:

BY 2030, THE COUNTRIES WE WORK WITH WILL HAVE CAPACITY TO MEET THE RIGHT TO MOBILITY AND INCLUSION OF ONE MILLION MORE DISABLED PEOPLE

We will focus our work on the following four priorities:

Our review also led to the identification of seven core principles to our way of working:

  1. Respond to disabled people’s voices and choices

  2. Work in locations where we can deliver maximum impact

  3. Work in support of national and state policies and priorities

  4. Build, test and share practical solutions and best practice

  5. Increase the uptake and use of credible evidence

  6. Collaborate and cooperate across the AT and related sectors

  7. Work with partners to embed change in the countries where we work

Structure, Governance and Management

The Charity is a company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital. It operates under the terms of its Articles of Association, as amended by Special Resolution on 31 January 2019. Copies are filed with Companies House and the Charity Commission.

Trustees

In 2024 the Board of Trustees consisted of seven members, who met five times across the year.

The Board contributes specialist knowledge from their fields of expertise, including global development, wheelchair service management, clinical provision, disability, finance, fundraising, strategy, business enterprise and commercial management.

Trustees are recruited by the Board based on a skills audit to identify the qualities and skills that are needed. A bespoke induction programme is delivered to all new Trustees by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the Senior Management Team and existing Trustees. Trustees may request training through the Company/Charity Secretary, who will also notify the Trustees of relevant courses. However, standard practice is that the Company/Charity Secretary attends relevant training courses and then reports to the Trustees on key issues.

The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the governance of the organisation whilst the CEO is responsible for ensuring that the organisation continues to develop and grow in line with the objects of the charity and its strategic plan.

Chief Executive Officer

Day-to-day responsibility for the management of Motivation lies with Amanda Wilkinson, the CEO, reporting directly to the Board of Trustees and responsible for implementing the Board’s policy decisions. The CEO provides leadership and direction in Motivation’s efforts to deliver on its mission alongside the senior management team.

Pay policy for senior staff

All Trustees give of their time freely and no Trustee received remuneration in the year. Details of Trustee expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in Note 6 to the Financial Statements. Motivation aims to pay around the median level for a charity of our size. For this purpose, we undertake informal annual benchmarking of peer charities and cross-reference this against local cost-of-living indices and what the charity can afford.

Staff

Motivation employed 43 staff across five offices in 2024, with seven staff in Kenya, three in Malawi, three in Uganda, 11 in India teams and 19 in the UK.

Volunteers

In 2024, we continued to receive ongoing support from numerous skilled volunteers in Africa, India and the UK. From administration to peer training, the time and hard work of our volunteers is invaluable and directly helps Motivation to achieve its activities.

20 | P a g e

Equality, diversity and inclusion

We continue to champion diversity and inclusion across Motivation. We are committed to putting our values into action and making all staff feel proud of Motivation as a diverse, inclusive employer.

We aim to reduce any barriers to joining our team, to offer an adaptable and accessible workplace and to ensure no discrimination exists in our policies, processes or culture.

We regularly seek and act on feedback from all staff, so everyone has a chance to inform how Motivation is run and make suggestions for how we can improve. Staff can contact the Senior Management Team in person at any time, or through an anonymous form on our organisational Home page. We also run an all-staff survey twice a year, with a 100% response rate to the latest survey.

Looking at staff who ‘Strongly agree or ‘Agree’:

The SMT follow up on people’s feedback and suggestions for change during the survey, including reminding staff where they can go for IT support, creating more spaces for online socials and informal interaction and sharing more information about everyone’s roles and responsibilities.

We are committed to ensuring new opportunities to strengthen diversity, especially welcoming people from under-represented groups to Motivation.

We aim to hold ourselves accountable by tracking progress and continually learning about ways to improve. This includes the implementation of transparent policies, practices and procedures, as well as meeting our duties under the UK’s Equality Act 2010.

Risk management

Motivation regularly assesses and minimises the risks that might arise through our work. Senior management and programme staff take responsibility for identifying and managing risks across all operations.

Identified risks are held in organisational and activity risk registers. Risks are scored in terms of their likelihood to occur and the scale of potential impact and ranked by priority. Wherever the risk exposure is assessed to be too high, mitigating actions are taken. Responsibility for monitoring and managing each risk is assigned to a member of the senior management team. A review of organisational risk status and actions is undertaken at every Board meeting and emerging risks are a standing agenda item at senior management team meetings.

Safeguarding is an expression of our values and a commitment to all our people, communities, partners and staff. Our work in this area is led by a ‘Keeping People Safe’ (KPS) team, with representatives from finance, fundraising, HR, communications and project teams.

The overall safeguarding responsibility sits with Motivation’s CEO and is overseen by the Chair of the Board of Trustees, both of whom have experience of safeguarding practices in the UK disability and child services sectors. We also have a safeguarding lead on the Board of Trustees.

In 2024, our safeguarding and related policies (code of conduct, whistleblowing and antibullying and harassment) were reviewed, updated and reapproved by the Board. All Trustees re-read and re-sign these four policies annually, all staff re-read and re-sign them as part of their annual appraisal process and all Trustees and staff undertake DBS or equivalent checks annually. All new staff and Trustees receive a safeguarding induction and read and sign a commitment these policies.

Safeguarding is a standing agenda item on Board and senior management team meetings. We work to ensure that all partnerships with local organisations comply with our policies and best practice, through our partnership assessment tool and our Memoranda of Understanding.

In 2024, we received eight incident reports, all of which have been responded to and are now closed. Whilst this is a positive increase on previous years, reporting remains below where we would expect for the sector. The KPS team continued to focus on ensuring all incidents are reported with regular all-staff refresher training, emphasising our ‘If in doubt, report’ approach, providing examples and training on what to report and the practicalities of how to report.

All projects have specific safeguarding plans, discussion of safeguarding with partners is a part of all project’s set up and region- and country-specific referral maps are in project documentation and on our website.

We regularly run safeguarding training for project partners and participants and for other key organisations in our sector. In India, this included seven sessions for 87 participants, including Motivation India staff, volunteers, women sports players, rehabilitation professionals and partner staff members. In Kenya 146 people were trained, in Malawi 478 people and in Uganda 309 people via consultancies for other disability and development organisations and refresher training for partners and integrated into training for wheelchair services staff, parent support groups, Villages Savings and Loans groups and medical professionals on care for children with cerebral palsy.

Our active commitment and practice around keeping everyone that comes into contact with our work safe continues to be fundamental to our work.

Fundraising governance

The Board of Trustees ensures that our fundraising is guided by our values and that activities comply with legal and regulatory frameworks.

22 | P a g e

Each year, we undertake a range of fundraising activities as detailed above. In 2024, all our fundraising activities were carried out in-house. We did not partner with any professional fundraisers or commercial participators.

Motivation is registered with the Fundraising Regulator and we adhere to the Code of Fundraising Practice. We ensure fundraising activity is carried out in line with charity law and all relevant legislation, including General Data Protection Regulation and Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. We collect and use personal information only for the purpose it was intended and outlined in a clear Privacy Notice signposted in fundraising communications.

Our fundraising complaints process is published on our website. Last year we sent out 10,681 individual communications via post and email and received no complaints. Our Supporter Promise outlines what we do to protect vulnerable people and to ensure that any fundraising activity does not cause unreasonable pressure or impact on a person’s privacy.

Wherever we receive funds, we use these according to donor wishes either for unrestricted purposes or earmarked to specific programmes or activities. Motivation complies with contractual arrangements with donors and has robust internal systems to ensure we meet reporting requirements and private commitments. Some donors may request anonymity, which we always respect.

Subsidiary Trading Company

Motivation Direct Limited is a wholly owned trading subsidiary undertaking that is fully consolidated within the parent charitable company’s financial statements. The principal reason for investing in a trading subsidiary is to generate profits that will be donated to the charity to use in furtherance of its charitable objective.

Statement of compliance

As detailed in this report, the Directors have complied with their duty to have regard to the matters in Section 172(1) of the Companies Act 2006.

Public benefit statement

This report sets out how we operate for public benefit and general charitable purposes, according to the laws of England and Wales.

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing Motivation’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The Trustees are required to prepare an annual report and financial statements for each financial year in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The Trustees are also required to prepare financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

The Trustees confirm that to the best of their knowledge there is no information relevant to the audit of which the auditors are unaware. The Trustees also confirm that they have taken all necessary steps to ensure that they are aware of all relevant audit information and that this information has been communicated to the auditors.

Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31 December 2022 was 6 (31 December 2021, 5). The Trustees are members of the charity, but this entitles them only to voting rights. The Trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. The Directors have prepared this report in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Motivation Charitable Trust (the ‘parent company’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements” section of our report. We are independent of the group and the parent company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the

27 | P a g e

other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

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:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the Trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 26, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and the parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,

28 | P a g e

matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance 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 the financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

Based on our understanding of the group, the parent company and their industry, we considered that non-compliance with the following laws and regulations might have a material effect on the financial statements: employment regulation, health and safety regulation and anti-money laundering regulation.

To help us identify instances of non-compliance with these laws and regulations, and in identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect to non-compliance, our procedures included, but were not limited to:

Inquiring of management and, where appropriate, those charged with governance, as to whether the group and the parent company is in compliance with laws and regulations, and discussing their policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations;

Inspecting correspondence, if any, with relevant licensing or regulatory authorities;

Communicating identified laws and regulations to the engagement team and remaining alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout our audit; and

Considering the risk of acts by the group and the parent company which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.

We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the preparation of the financial statements, such as tax legislation, pension legislation and the Companies Act 2006.

In addition, we evaluated the trustees’ and management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements, including the risk of management override of controls, and determined that the principal risks related to posting manual journal entries to manipulate financial performance, management bias through judgements and assumptions in significant accounting estimates, in particular in relation to revenue

29 | P a g e

recognition (which we pinpointed to the cut-off assertion), and significant one-off or unusual transactions.

Our audit procedures in relation to fraud included but were not limited to:

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities including fraud rests with management. As with any audit, there remained a risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal controls.

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.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of the audit report

This report is made solely to the company’s members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

David Green Chair of the Trustees

Date: 15 September 2025

Notes to the financial statements

Statutory information: The Motivation Charitable Trust is a private charitable company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The company’s registered number and registered office address can be found on the Reference and Administration Information page.

1. Accounting policies

Functional and presentation currency: The company's functional and presentation currency is pound sterling (£).

a) Accounting conventions

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and under the historical cost convention. They follow the recommendations in the 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) (effective 1 January 2015) Charities SORP (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary for the year to 31 December 2024. As permitted by s408 Companies Act 2006 a separate profit and loss account dealing with the results of the parent company has not been presented. The result of the parent company for the year was a deficit of £291,372 (2023: £438,769 deficit). The trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

b) Going concern

The trustees have assessed Motivation’s ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees have considered several factors when forming their conclusion as to whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate when preparing these financial statements including a review of updated 2025 forecasts and a consideration of key risks, including trends in the global and macro-economic climate, that could negatively affect the charity.

Our core unrestricted reserves are funded from a combination of trading income through the social enterprise, fundraising income (in the form of donations and legacies) and programme grants, a portion of which is allocated to funding the charity’s running costs. The charity has met all the repayments required from the CBILS loans accessed during 2020.

Regular forecasting and scenario planning is undertaken to ensure there is a realistic plan to rebuild reserves over an acceptable timeframe.

The trustees also recognise that there are a number of key risks in our financial model which may adversely impact the financial plans. These may be summarised as a decline in income from trading sales, falls in unrestricted donations and legacies and a fall in programme expenditure leading to lower recovery of core costs.

In light of these factors the Trustees have also considered downside scenarios planning to assess the potential financial impact of falling income and rising costs on Motivation. This scenario planning indicates that Motivation would be able to absorb some reductions in income and/or cost increases without significantly threatening its liquidity, although it would

33 | P a g e

prolong the time needed to return to positive reserves. However, a more substantial fall in income or spike in costs would increase the liquidity risk.

The Trustees also note that there are also a number of opportunities which could cause Motivation to outperform the base case financial forecast. These include opportunities with new customers and products in the social enterprise and potential funding for programme activities in India and Africa in line with our new strategy.

In summary, whilst the Trustees are confident in the plans which should see Motivation continue to build unrestricted reserves next year, they are mindful that the financial outlook is subject to change. Therefore, they are reviewing the financial position closely. Moreover, whilst the scenario planning does not indicate any immediate liquidity risks, if this changes then appropriate measures will be taken.

After considering these factors, the trustees have concluded that the charity has a reasonable expectation that there are adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and have continued to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.

c) Incoming resources

All income is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured accurately. Income is deferred if it has been received but relates to a specific future period or is dependent upon conditions to be fulfilled by the charity.

d) Funds accounting

34 | P a g e

e) Resources expended

Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred. Resources expended include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.

f) Costs of generating voluntary income

These relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in raising both restricted and unrestricted funds for the charitable work and include salaries, direct expenditure and overhead costs of direct fundraising staff.

g) Costs of mobility products

These costs relate to the costs of goods sold by the trading subsidiary, Motivation Direct Limited.

h) Support costs

These relate to costs incurred by staff directly providing support to project work. Costs are allocated on the basis of staff time incurred and proportion of overhead expenses.

Charity support costs are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis, which is an estimate, based on charity staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity:

Cost of generating voluntary income 42.1% Charitable activities 57.9% Other 0.0%

i) Material uncertainties and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make some judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for income and expenditure. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. No significant judgements or estimates have had to be made by management in preparing these financial statements.

35 | P a g e

j) Intangible fixed assets

Amortisation is provided on all intangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost over it's useful life. The rates in use are as follows:

Computer software 20% straight line

k) Tangible fixed assets

UK expenditure on fixed assets is capitalised where it exceeds £1,000. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

Office furniture and equipment 25% straight line Leasehold improvements 10% straight line Computer equipment 20% straight line Website 33% straight line Tooling 25% straight line Motor vehicles 20% straight line

l) Stock

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

m) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid in respect of future periods.

n) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and any short term highly liquid investments.

o) Financial instruments

The charitable company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in nonputtable ordinary shares. Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate or in case of an out-right short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially, at the present value of the future cash flow discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost.

36 | P a g e

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.

p) Pension contributions

The charitable company makes contributions on behalf of its employees into their personal pension funds. The amounts charged in the Statement of Financial Activities represent the contributions payable to the funds in respect of the accounting period. Outstanding pension contributions at the year-end are included in creditors. All expenses and liabilities for defined contribution pension plans are allocated to unrestricted funds.

q) Foreign currency transactions

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into UK sterling at the average rate of exchange for the month of the transaction. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into UK sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the end of the financial year. All exchange differences are dealt with in the Statement of Financial Activities.

r) Liabilities

Liabilities are recognised when a future obligation resulting in the outflow of funds arises which can be measured reliably. Liabilities are disclosed but not recognised if conditions have to be met before payment is made. When future outflow is probable, but not contractual and measurable with sufficient accuracy a provision is recognised.

s) Termination benefits

The charity recognises termination payments as a liability and an expense when it is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or group of employees before the normal retirement date.
