Tha Trusteès remain in awe and extremely proud ol the team and volunteers who work so tirelessly ID continue to run the charity and provide daily care for our resident Tescued monkeys. In October 2024, Wild Futures was awarded with the Outstanding International Sanctuary Award by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries. This award Is an Incredible honour, and a reflection ol the amazing work we do to operate as a true sanctuary, putting monkey welfare abov8 all else. Thank you lo GFAS lor this prestigious award.

We have continued to work on our campaign lo end th& UK primate pat trade, provided specialist care lo the rescued monkeys living al our sanctuary, delivered expert education visits lo univer8ltle8. and maintained our thriving volunteer programme. More delails on theso achievements are in the report. During 2025, the Trustees had to make the very difflcull decislon lo market the sanctuary 51te for sale. Our brief to the joint selling agents was very clear in that we wanted to find a buyer who would be able to allow us lo continue our oparations on si18 despité us no longer owning the freèhold. We were accepting Ihal this might be impossible lo achieve and plans were being pul in place for ralocab'ons or potential mergers wSlh other charitable organisations. We have received numerous ofters lo acquire the site, but many of these came with raquirements lor us lo relocate and this would not only have potentially put the charity in a worse financial position but we were also not comfortable with the impact on our monkeys and our team that havg worked so hard lor us. Havlng sald Ih5s, we are currently IDecember 2025) considering an offer which might provide the solution we want to save the charity for the longer term and we want to assure our supporters that all of our decisions have been made wilh the Charity In mind and our sole aim is for the harity to bè abl8 to conllnue dellv8rlng th8 amazing WOTk we already do.

In addition, the éocision-making process of the Charlty Is struclured in recognition of the fact that the Members who have daily responsibility for the welfare of the monkeys havé a uniqua insight into their needs and requlrements and so decisions must meet the approval of as many of the Trustees and Members as posslble.

Wlld Futures R Islar8d n Re ort ot the Trust88S For The Year Ended 31 March 2025 Prior to Jackie passing away, she lived with a younger female called Boo Boo, with whom she ha8 lived in different social combinations since Boo Boo was rescued back in 2008. Wild Futures rescued Jackie from the UK prirnate pet Irade in 2005 and lived lo a good age al our sanctuary, after finally being able lo be in social company dong wlLh the physlcal and social environment that these primales are not afforded in the pel trade. Jackie had type 2 diabetes as a Tesult of bèing fed tha wrong diet whilst kept as a pel which eventually necessitated daily medication. In January, Jackie saw our v&t following a brigf period of ill health. and It was at this visit that the true éxtent of her chronic condltions and age related illness&8 were apparent and we were given an end-of-life diagnosis, so we made the difficult, but fairest decision ID Put Jackie lo sleep. Our knowledgeable team turned their attentions straight to Boo Boo and started to look at what options we could find for her, so she wasn't on her own. After a team meeting, where we discussed all of the options and weighing up multiple aspects, the decision was mada and we began socialising her into a family group of capuchins consisllng of three Sndividuals-, Roccila, Elvis. and Betty. This family group had a150 unfortunately recently losl a member of their group. a mal8 called Banjo. Banjo had heart problems made more complex by him also b8lng diabetic Itype 21. After Banjo's passing wé were concerned about his younger sister Roccila and how she would cope. The family arrived at our sancluary in 2012 after being housed in unsuitable conditions in their previous home. Roccita had nev&r met any capuchins other than her family group, and tho sociali81ng process can be mentally and physically taxina for our rescued primates, who haven't learnt vital social skllls due lo b9ing kept in inappropriate Gondilions. W8 knew thal Boo Boo could end up belng a good Social match for Roccita and provide her with Ihe companionship and social skills that she is going lo need for the rest ol her life here at Wild Futures. Both Betty and Elvis are around 30 years of age so we also wanted Roccila to rneet and socialise with an individual who could then support her whilst meeling other capuchins in the future. Betly also has type 2 diabetes, and boih she and BoD 800 Teceive the same medication and adjusted diel due to their disease. making this also a go¢)d fil for Boo. Socialising Indivlduals requires lots of time and investment from the team to ensure the monkeys involved are safe and Comfortable during initial me8ls and vlgils. 800 800 now has full social company again and is always with a member of Ihe family group. We are hoping that the group will ona day b8 ablè to lully bè together bul as is often tha case with rescued monkeys, thelr previous trauma means that this process can take a very long lime as they learn lo navigate social sellings and adjust their behavlours. Educatlon and Publlc Rga¢h Our 8ducation work is carri8é out in many ways, wllh a mulli-pronged plan lo makè sure we are communicating with, and 8ducating, a broad spectrum ol different peopl@ lo ensure our charlly aims arè und8rslood and suppor18d. We do this by giving talks lo Ihe general public at our monkey sanctuary during our op8n season, communicating via social and other media, partnerships with other animal welfare organisalions, our volunteer program, hosting education visits on.site to universlly Stuéenls, and being a board member in tha European Alliance of Aescue Centres and Sanctuaries, IEARSI, whare w& sharo ideas, learn from one another, and are a part ol a wider organisalion promoting animal wèlfare and the way forward in sanctuary management. Wo continued lo do all of this durlng Ihe yaar and March 2025 providing a broad range of engagement lo promote primale welfare and conservalion. As with the last 20 year5, we hosted the Msc Primate Conservation course al Oxford Brookes Unlverslly In March 2025. We also hosted the University ol Exeter Penryn in November 2024, their fourth annual trip to us, and we had Mount Bay Academy join us for the first time in July 2024. Our onsite education visits are revolved around the work we do, and lo highlight and educate on the importance of working as a true sanctuary. The visits involve talks about the work that we do, willi a particular focus on the UK primate pet Irade. We host workshops on gnclDsure design, capiuro methods (for vaterinary purpDsesl, socialisations, disoase and injury management, and creallng unlqua and fulfilling gnrichment. Education is such an imporlant parl of what we do. Making as many people as possible aware ol thg plight ot primates in the UK hèlps spread awareness and will hopefully éven inspire more people lo support our work or begin a careèr in primale w8lfar& and conservation. W6 encourage our residential volunleets lo join thosè courses as part ol their educational opportunlly. Conversely, we often recruit participants from those courses who are interested in learning more about the work that we do and wanl to be a part of our volunteer prograrnme. Wild Futures welcomed a team from 'Off The Fence,, a production tearn from Bristol, onsite in December 2024 to film our capuchin monkeys 'lur-rubbing'. The series they were filming is called Wild Medics, and it focuses on animals using natural medicines, and those that have unique and interesting sense5. They approached us as they wanted to film capuchins whilst ihey were doing a natural behaviour known as lur rubbing, or scent rubbing. This behaviour is done in the wild using crushed millipedes, planls, and citrus fruit. Rosoarch suggests that they carry out this behaviour lor medicinal purposes, such as a natural insect repellent, and also as a tool for social bonding. Rescued capuchins at OUT sanctuary also carry out thi8 natural behaviour by rubbing foods such as chillis, garlic, spring onion, or cilrus fruits into their fur. The filming was successful in showing that behaviour, and gave a really good talking point as to why they do it, while also highlighting Ihg importance of how cruciat il is to provide the environment for captive animals to perforffl Iheir natural behaviours.

Wlld Futures R Ist8r8d number: 04995906 Re ort ol the TTUStees For The Year Ended 31 March 2025 Campaigns We are determined that Wild Futures will not only focus on moppSng up the mess created by the UK primate pét tradè. bul that wè wlll also b& instrumental in turning off the tap. For as long as there Is a UK primate pet trade there will be primates kept in inappropriale conditions. victims ol the ignorance ol buyers and th8 greed of dealers. Wild Futures has campaigned lor over 20 years lo see a total end lo Ihe UK primate pet trade. Primate5 are intelllgent, socially complex wild animals, inhorenily unsuilable ID be kept in any domestlc settlng. Wg continue to ¢ampaign for thè laws to change and to see il become illegal to own a primate. In March 2024, the Government passed a Statutory Instrument ISI) The Animal Welfare (Primate Licencesl (England) Regulalions 2024, and although Ihls Is not the ban on keeping primates that we want, we are still hopeful that it will make a meaningful diffèranc&. Tha licenc8 will come into effect on 6th April 2026. and the accompanying guidance was published in 2025. The Llcence in sumrnary.. A person who keeps or is proposing to keep a primate in England on or aller 6th April 2026 may only do so if the person has a primate licence under these Regulations or an exceptlon appllas. Th&re are two exceptions for these purposes. namely wherè the prlmala Is kapi in a zoo under the Zoo Licensing Act 1981 Ic. 371 or where the primate is kept in a place specified In a licènce under the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 {c. 141. A primate Ilcence musl be obtained from the local aulhoTlty where tho primates are kept or to bè kept. A person who keeps a primato in England wilhoul a prirnate licence (wher8 required) will be cornmitling an offence under section 13161 of ihe Animal Wellare Act 2006 Ic. 451 and wlll be Ilabla on summary conviction lo imprisonment for alerm of up lo slx months, a fine or both. Llcansing under Ihe Dangerous Wild Animal Act IDWAAI wlll also stlll be requlred for relevant species. The change In Government after the general election In July 2024 prompted our coalition of animal welfare organisalions, who we worked alongside In the lead up to the new licence, to write again lo Baronèss Hayman who had previously supported a cornplele ban, in the hopes that there might now bè a chance lo slrength8n th8 leuislalion. Unfortunately, we were not successful in that and were rèassur8d that thé guldance lo support the new licence will be issued in due course. Whalever happens, w8 won't slop flghting lo gel the total ban on primates as pets, that we want, and Ihay deserve. Wild Futures are often asked to consult on prlmale welfare and contribute our expertise in a variety of cases. In June we were approachèd by concernad members of the public, members of a local aulhodty and by another animal welfare organlsation, to provide our expertise on primate behaviour, concerning a possiblo Dangerous Wild Animals Act licence application. Our dedicated team have years ol experience working with rescued primates and are experts Sn our field. We are proud lo contribute to th8se cases, without prejudicè, to &nsur8 that primate welfar@ is always at the forefront ol any declsion. We want an end to primate trade and th8 ownership of primat68 In the UK, bul until that point, Il is important that we continue lo be a part ol Ih8s8 conversations, lo keep highlighting the importance ol piimal8 welfare, to provide the best posslble outcorne.

Wild Fu ures istered number: 04995 06 ort of the Trustees ForThe Year Ende 31 March 2025 FINANCIAL REVIEW Flnancial posltlon Incomlng Resources As wilh rent previous years and mentioned elsewhere in the report, our financial position has romained pr8carious, and management of funds has become more dlfficult. Wo havo continued lo slrlve lo generate income however, due lo conllnued exlernal pressures our income has droppgd slightly again this year from £559,690 2024 to £541,181. Outgolng Rèsourcè8 Total expenditure lor the charity has further increased in comparison to last yeaf and this coupled with the decllne in incomg is what led to our decision to market the site. Despite the management team havlng continued lo be exceptional in cost control we simply were not generating enough income to cont]nue operating in the same way. Invostment pollcy Thè charity has to be prudent with longer term investments in the sile as much of the capltal ava(lable 18 requlred lo enable day-loday operations lo continue. However, where funds allow, there are di8cussions to invest in the sile for the benefit8 of primates and our poople, lo improve the livinglworking environment lor all. During the year and since the year end, slgnilicanl efforts have gone into making sure Ihe sancluary can stay open and active lor the short and longer lerm and as mentioned this has led lo actions surrounding th8 luture of our assets and lh8 site w& operate from lo ensure we can conllnue lo achieve our charllable objeclives.

The revaluation reserve has been adjusted lo rellecl what our sales agents vlewed as the sito value, rather than the Insurance valLJe that had prevlously be used in the charity's accounts. Until this year, our reseTves policy was to retain (where possible) £80,000 ol funds in order lo support the charity during ditticull lime, whlch would glve us some lime to mak8 strategic decisions about th8 way fotward. Al th8 lim8 01 writing our current PO811ion of reserves is below Ihls amount, bul whilst we wntinue with discussions surrounding the sale of our sile, we are also awalllng some donations and legacies, which will help 5UPPOrt continued activities in the short tèrm. FUTURE PLANS As we headed Into the new financial year, Wild Futures laced Ils hardest lime In r8¢9nt history. The legacy ol Covid restrictions, coupled with the continuod ¢¢onomi¢ downturn and Ihe cosl-ol-living crisis have all meant less abllily to genorale incorne. and our outgoing costs increasing. For context, In 2025 the Charlly Commisslon reported that nationally for the majorlly of small charitSes outgolngs exceeded incorne, Insolvency is up x4 and 50°/. fear closure. More locally, al least nine well established charities Ihai had siles open to the public, made considerable redundancies, were put up for sale or closed down. In the last five years we have seen our monlhly expenditure rnore than double, and we needed to lake drast¢ action to ensure Ihe long-term survival ol the charity. In February 2025 we reviewed our structure In a bld lo try and reduce our expendlture. As a result, we made reductions on our day-lo-day operalions and sadly went through a team restructure resulling in reéundancies. We remain committed to our objects and alms, and w8 need to focus all of our income to the monkeys in our care. Wild Fulures is continuing to proceed with extreme calon, as we navigate Ihis lime. We can be proud that our support8rs can be confident that our resources and donations are used as eff icienlly as possible with the maximum impact for primates in our care. We will bè working around thé clock to lind the best posslbla outcome for tha charity and the monkeys in our care. Our day-lo-day strategy rematns the same, In Summary to.. Maintain our sanctuary with excellent welfare lor primale8. Deliver education prograrnmes on primate welfare. Lobby political decision rnakers on primate issues. Continually dovelop and improve our understanding and wellare of captive primates and be a recognised knowledg6 base. Develop and maintain a sustainable organisation. As noted earlier In the report, afier havlng no cholce bul to market out sanctuary site for sale, we are working through offer5 which we hope will enable us lo continue operating lor the foreseeable future.
