Our Mission

Facing History and Ourselves UK uses lessons of history to challenge teachers and their students to stand up to bigotry and hate.

‘The Facing History journey makes teaching history not just about the history – it’s about teaching us how to be human.’

Facing History UK Teacher

Why we do it:

Our Charitable Objects:

The principal object of the charity is to advance the education of the public and in particular children and young people in human rights and good citizenship by:

We believe that education has the power to drive societal change. By equipping future generations with critical thinking skills, emotional awareness and the ability to reflect ethically we can prepare them to be more engaged civic participants who are working to address the many challenges society faces, including:

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit and in particular to its supplementary public benefit guidance.

How we do it

Facing History UK teachers engage students with the history and choices people made in the past to help them confront choices in their own lives, inspiring them to become young upstanders, not bystanders and to be allies, not bullies.

‘Young people often feel they don’t have a voice, particularly teenagers may feel that they’re looked at negatively in society. I think this makes them feel that they can actually take action and do something that’s positive in the world.’ Facing History UK Teacher

To do this we do two key things:

1. We write curriculum:

2. We train and support teachers: Our teacher training combines academic rigour, emotional engagement and ethical reflection so that teachers can create classrooms where students learn to absorb differing perspectives, and where primary historical and literary resources inspire discussion and debate. Where possible we make our training available at no cost to teachers.

Using the study of historic and literary case studies, our resources provide tools to examine difficult histories, develop critical thinking skills and navigate challenging conversations.

Our resources are online and free. Our newest Current Events lessons give teachers the lifeline they need to help their students begin to digest the events that flood our media – for example, our lessons on understanding and assessing UK democracy and responding to violence against women.

As a result of these two things, Facing History UK reaches hundreds of thousands more students than we ever could if we were to work directly with young people. By training and supporting teachers, we are creating the real opportunity for long-term societal change.

Raising Awareness

To enable us to continue to grow our work – and impact many more young people – we have also undertaken significant activity to increase awareness of Facing History UK, what we can offer to teachers and schools and the impact that our work has.

We are also developing partnerships which can support our work through funding, in-kind support and working together to increase collective impact.

We Are Facing History UK – Standing Up for Democracy

On 10 May 2022 we hosted an evening for our network and potential new supporters to deepen their understanding of our work and give them an experience of being in a Facing History UK classroom. Attendees heard from experienced Facing History UK teachers about the power of using Facing History in their classrooms.

teachers and staff. A real highlight of the evening was hearing from young poet Shazain whose poem reflecting on what he had learnt in his Facing History classrooms included the verses quoted opposite.

from all my cells, every one is my motto, love for all and hatred for none’

5. Our Future Plans

The Financial Year 2023

Moving into the financial year 2023, the charity enters the fourth year of its five-year strategy. Our key goals in this strategic period are that by 30 June 2024:

Annual Report and Financial Statements 2021-22

Trustee’s Report

Year to 30 June 2022

The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of Facing History and Ourselves (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 30 June 2022. Throughout the report, where the charity is referred to by name Facing History and Ourselves UK is used to distinguish the organisation from the US based Facing History and Ourselves Inc. The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity’s governing document and have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP FRS 102). The address of the charity’s registered office, together with other reference and administrative information, is detailed on page 17.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Constitution

The charity was registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 11 February 2004, as amended by written resolution dated 29 March 2004, with charity number 1103592. It has been operating in the UK independently of Facing History and Ourselves Inc., based in the US, since its formation. A decision was taken to convert the charity from its legal status as a charitable company limited by guarantee to one of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). The charity’s conversion was accepted by the Charity Commission on 31 October 2019 and with effect from 31 October 2019 the charity is constituted as a CIO.

Related party relationships

The charity is a partner of Facing History and Ourselves Inc. (FHAO Inc.). FHAO Inc. is an organisation based in Massachusetts in the US which was founded in 1976. FHAO Inc. supports an active network of over 150,000 educators across the US, separate partner charities in the UK and Canada, and partners around the world, including in South Africa, Colombia, Mexico and France.

The US partner of the charity acts as its adviser at the recommendation of the Board of Trustees and provides management services to the charity. Services to support Facing History dissemination in the UK are also provided

by FHAO Inc. staff. In the year ending 30 June 2022 there was a grant agreement in place between the two organisations. For the year ending 30 June 2023 a new grant agreement and agreement on how the two organisations work together, including the support provided to the charity, has been established.

Key management personnel

The key management personnel of the charity are composed of the trustees and the Executive Director. The day-to-day running of the charity is overseen by the Executive Director who is supported by a small staff team. The Executive Director reports directly to the Board of Trustees and receives support from FHAO Inc. Trustees set the salary levels for key management personnel, taking advice from the HR team providing support from FHAO Inc. and an independent salary benchmarking company to ensure the recommendations made to trustees are sufficient to ensure appointment of appropriately skilled and experienced staff while also taking account of the size and financial position of the charity. Key management remuneration for the year is detailed in note 7.

Roles of trustees and advisers

The strategic direction of the charity is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Constitution. The number of trustees shall not be less than three. Trustees are expected to be well informed about the charity’s work and are encouraged to keep themselves up to date.

The charity shall call a General Meeting for any decisions that the members are required to take in addition to any other meetings in that year. The General Meeting is held at such times and places as the trustees deem appropriate. The charity also works with an Advisory Board which meets three or four times a year. They provide leadership on fundraising, outreach, and consultation on programmes.

Method of appointing trustees

When recruiting new trustees, the charity considers the candidate’s professional qualifications and commitment to the Facing History mission and our work. The charity conducts recruitment through written applications followed by interviewing short-listed candidates. The potential trustee’s candidacy is then introduced to the trustees for a vote. There must be a majority vote to elect.

Trustees receive general induction about the operations of the charity and are provided with the Good Governance Code to understand their responsibilities. Ongoing training is then tailored to the needs of the trustees.

Risk management

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. A risk management policy and risk register are in place for the charity. The greatest risk to the charity this year has continued to be our ability to fundraise given both the impacts of the pandemic and the increasingly challenging financial context in which we operate. Trustees have managed this risk by maintaining a tight budget for the financial year. The newly identified capacity for development will support the charity in increasing its fundraising activity and starting to build its pipeline of funders for the future.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The results of the charity are set out on page 22.

It was another challenging year financially, in a climate where fundraising continued to be difficult. However, expenditure remained tightly managed and activity was controlled to ensure costs did not exceed funds raised for the year. The net result of this is that the charity ended the year in a position to contribute further to reserves and has now also secured additional resource for fundraising with a new postholder who started in September 2022. Total income for the year was £356,077 (2021: £473,080) and total expenditure was £344,142 (2021: £333,509). During 2022 there was a surplus of £11,935 (2021: surplus of £139,571).

Reserves policy and going concern

develop its fundraising and income generation capacity which is needed to ensure longer-term sustainability. The trustees are committed to ensuring that there are six months of core operating costs (£172,000) held in reserves and based on the 2023 budget, the reserves exceed this criteria.

The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The trustees have made this assessment in respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these financial statements. Given the reserves position outlined above, at the time of signing, trustees can be confident that the organisation has sufficient funds for the next twelve months. The trustees therefore deemthe charity to be an ongoing concern.

Information on fundraising practices

The charity complies with all GDPR requirements, thus protecting our funders’ information. There were no complaints in relation to fundraising made within the year.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

Principal accounting policies

30 June 2022

received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are laid out below.

Donated services or facilities are recognised when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteered time is not recognised, although further information on volunteers’ contribution can be found in the trustees’ report.

Basis of preparation of financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared for the year ended 30 June 2022 with comparative information provided with respect to the year ended 30 June 2021.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

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 services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policies below or the notes to these financial statements.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Expenditure

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 governance costs involved in undertaking each activity.

The financial statements are presented in sterling and rounded to the nearest pound.

Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

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 statements.

Income

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Assessment of going concern

The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The trustees have made this assessment in respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these financial statements.

During FY22 the charity continued its cautious approach to

24

Facing History and Ourselves UK

Annual Report and Financial Statements 2021-22

Notes to the financial statements

Year to 30 June 2022

managing the budget and minimising expenditure, given ongoing challenges relating to fundraising post pandemic and the impact of two years of not being able to undertake in-person fundraising activity. The charity finishes FY22 with £479,580 in free reserves and based on current forecasts it is expected that £33,000 of these reserves will be utilised in FY23. This will leave approximately £446,580 in reserves for FY24. This figure is in excess of six months’ running costs and therefore at the time of signing, trustees can be confident that the organisation has sufficient funds for the next twelve months. The trustees therefore deem the charity to be an ongoing concern.

The financial statements have been based on the expectation of the charity continuing as a going concern for the next twelve months. The trustees believe that there are no uncertainties regarding the financial statements being prepared on a going concern basis.

Operating leases

Rentals under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial activities incorporating income and expenditure account on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange gains and losses are recognised in the statement of financial activities incorporating income and expenditure account.

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.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

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 received 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 within interest payable and similar charges.

Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charity to the fund in respect of the year.

Significant judgements and estimates

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.

The Evaluation Project funds were provided to enable us to undertake evaluation of any aspect of our work. This work commenced in FY21 and continued in FY22. £6,575 of these funds was transferred to the Holocaust and Human Behaviour and Contemporary Antisemitism Project to undertake evaluation of our training and resources for teaching Holocaust and Human Behaviour. The remaining £2,395 was utilised to begin an evaluation pilot of our Teaching An Inspector Calls Unit.

The Holocaust and Human Behaviour and Contemporary Antisemitism Project aims to increase the number of schools teaching Holocaust and Human Behaviour (HHB) in the UK, providing the tools and support teachers need to ensure that their students understand the legacy of the Holocaust and the ongoing dangers of antisemitism today. Funds were used in FY22 to continue to promote the resource, to research and write the contemporary antisemitism resource and to provide ongoing opportunities for teachers to engage in training. The project has been extended into FY23 to enable a greater number of beneficiaries to benefit from the project.

Seminar Bursary funding was established as a result of our Christmas Big Give campaign. This funding will provide bursaries for teachers to participate in our online and in-person seminars with funding available for 56 teachers. These funds will be used to provide these bursaries in FY23 and beyond.
