The trustees in office during the year ware Josephine Del Mar (chair), Alexandra Jackson, Rose Barclay (resigned), Dr Katie Adolphus (resigned) and Bridget Goldsmith. The address of the principal office is Old Fox House, High St, Netheravon, Wiltshire, SP4 9PQ. The trustees of the charity present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2015) The constitutional objects are to advance in life and help young people through the provision of activities in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life, providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals. This is done by giving young people an opportunity to rise to a challenge that can connect them to their local community and to a different international community and thereby gain a broader perspective on their own world. The programme aims to develop self- awareness and resilience whilst creating an understanding of the young people’s own purpose and personal values. In 2022, due to the gradual return to 'normal,' the charity was able to operate on a reduced programme, with significant positive impact for the young people who participated. The first of three The Way programmes took place in January for pre-16 students. Young people signed in for the Identities and Communities programme travelled to Llain Adventure Centre in Wales. TTV delivered courses to students from Pewsey Vale School, The Ridgeway School and Sixth Form College, Marlborough College and New College Swindon. An evaluation of the Identities and Communities programme 2022 is available. ## **Public benefit** The trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit **Page 1** Thriving Through Venture ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Financial Position** During the year ended 31[st] December 2022 outgoing resources exceeded incoming resources. This was funded by brought forward surpluses from previous years which we were authorised by our donors to carry forward to use in future years. There is still a surplus to carry forward to 2023 but this has been significantly reduced. There is therefore a need to seek further funding to secure the future of our work with young people. ## **Principal funding sources** The Charity receives significant donations from charitable trusts and private individuals. ## **Reserves policy** The trustees aim to hold at any one time cash reserves equivalent to six months running costs. This aim was not achieved at 31st December 2022. There is therefore a need to seek further funding to secure the future of our work with young people. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATION DETAILS** ## **Registered Charity Number** 1177643 ## **Independent Examiner** Hazel Harvey Financial Services Paddock Gate Poulton Crescent MARLBOROUGH SN8 1BH This report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or - the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or - the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form - and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
