## **Report of the trustees** 

## **for the year ended 31 March 2022** 

The Board of Trustees of Change Agents UK Charity, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act, are pleased to present their annual report for the year ended 31 March 2022 under the Charities Act 2011, together with the independently examined accounts for the year. The Board of Trustees confirms that the latter comply with the requirements of the Act, the Trust Deed and the Charities SORP FRS 102. 

## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION** 

The organisation is a charitable company, registered under charity number 1104230 limited by guarantee, incorporated and registered as a charity on 14 May 2004. The charity was established under a Memorandum Association, which established its object and powers. Change Agents UK Charity Trustees, executive officers and principal addresses of the Charity are as listed on page 1. Particulars of the Charity's professional advisers are given on pages 1 to 2. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing Document** 

Change Agents UK Charity is governed under its Article of Association. In the event of the charity being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1. 

## **Governing Bodies** 

The Charity is governed by the Board of Trustees detailed on page 1. 

## **Appointment** 

The Directors of the charity are also Trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the Charity's Articles are known as members of the Board of Trustees. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, a third of the members of the Board of Trustees are required to retire at the annual general meeting. Members required to retire may stand for re-election. 

## **Recruitment of Trustees** 

Analysis carried out each year identifies certain skills that would be required for the Board in future. A sustained effort has been made to recruit trustees with these skills and experience to improve the quality and effectiveness of the board. 

All members of the Board of Trustees give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity. 

## **Organisational Management** 

Day-to-day management of the charity is overseen by the Chief Executive, detailed on page 1. 

## **Group Structure and Relationships** 

The Charity has a wholly owned trading subsidiary, Change Agents UK Trading Ltd, the sole purpose of which is to undertake projects and generate funds to support the Charity with a cross-charge to the trading subsidiary to reflect work undertaken on its behalf. Much of the work undertaken in the trading subsidiary directly supports the Charity's objectives in terms of raising public awareness on sustainable development through the provision of recruitment, training and work placements for projects that deliver sustainable change. Profits generated in the trading subsidiary are gift-aided to the Charity under a Deed of Covenant, to support its work in education for sustainability and employability. 

Change Agents UK Charity supports young people, education, employability and communities partly through networking and partnerships with organisations in the public, private and third sectors working in the field of sustainability. The Charity also benefits from an "alumni" network whose close support we greatly appreciate and acknowledge.

## **for the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees have considered the major risks faced by the charity. Risks are managed and minimised by monthly reporting and action and by reviewing policies periodically. The Board has formally adopted the Charity Governance Code as a mechanism to underpin its compliance with legal and regulatory responsibilities. 

## **Volunteers** 

Our volunteers fall into several categories. There are our Board of Trustees, who take responsibility for corporate governance and the strategic management of the charity. Professor Stephen Martin, our President and Co-Founder, works hard on behalf of the Charity and regularly lends it the benefit of his considerable knowledge, skill and support.  Then there are our other experienced volunteers, who contribute their skill and time to our charitable endeavours, particularly in training and development. Change Agents UK Charity gratefully acknowledges the contribution of our volunteers and thanks them formally for all of their hard work. All our volunteers give their time freely and receive no financial benefit from the Charity. 

## **WHAT WE DO AND WHY** 

## **Charitable Objects** 

Our charitable objectives are “to advance the education of the public in sustainable development by the provision of exhibitions, meetings, lectures, classes, seminars and courses either alone or with others, and to promote and undertake research for the public benefit in sustainable development and to disseminate the useful results of such research”. To us, sustainable development means a way of learning, living and working that integrates environmental protection and management with both social and economic development, in a way that does not compromise the ability of other people, now or in the future, to meet their own needs. We support the delivery of the Sustainable Development Goals and we work towards the realisation of a low-carbon economy and a secure, resilient and fair future for all.

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Objectives for the year** 

Our objectives for 2021/22 were to thrive and grow in the post-pandemic landscape. We recognised the need to be agile and ready to adapt to meet changing needs and capitalise on new opportunities to deliver our charitable objectives and maximise our impact; to do more on education, create more Change Agents and to reach out further to make sustainable futures accessible to people from all backgrounds. We sought to use the Kickstart for Sustainability Scheme to create opportunities and greater diversity in sustainability. We worked to expand and evolve our education programmes and deliver these where the need was greatest. Financially, we sought to maintain our revenue from diversified sources and break even, as in the prior year, ensuring our costs for the year were fully covered by our income. 

## **THE YEAR IN REVIEW** 

## **Reaching out: Kickstart for Sustainability** 

“I have had lots of experiences and opportunities to grow which I believe will forever shape and influence my professional life while fostering personal growth and development. I would definitely recommend Change Agents UK to anyone. The work they do is inspirational, and you can tell they really want to help people and the planet.” _Change Agents UK 2021/22 Kickstart for Sustainability participant_ 

This has been a year of outreach at Change Agents UK; we are keen to ensure that sustainability is meaningful and accessible to all, not just a privileged few. We successfully applied to become a Government Gateway organisation for the Kickstart Scheme, enabling us to create amazing opportunities in sustainability for young people on Universal Credit and at risk of long-term unemployment. We used the funding provided through the scheme to provide paid placements for 44 young people, many of whom struggled with confidence and had little work experience or background in sustainability. Some fantastic and transformative success stories were launched through this programme, with many securing longerterm or permanent roles in future-focused and meaningful work. The placements took place with a range of excellent organisations and many were directly involved in sustainability teams and projects. We provided a full training programme for the young people on the scheme, with a workshop programme helping them to development workplace skills and understand sustainability, personal development and career support and help with job hunting when the placements ended. 

“There have been many benefits of taking part in the Change Agents UK Kickstart Scheme. It has created an ideal environment for me to grow a variety of skills at a time when I needed it most. During my education, I had never really been prepared for the world of work- I hadn’t been taught about soft skills or workplace culture, which was something I wanted specifically. The Kickstart Scheme has given me the opportunity to get hands-on experience and at Change Agents UK I have felt continuously supported. Attending workshops on sustainability and getting one-to-one advice on skills, careers, and my CV has been invaluable. I feel as though I have been supported as a whole person and not just a worker.” _Change Agents UK 2021/22 Kickstart for Sustainability participant_ 

## **Sustainable Futures for All: Education and Learning** 

"Receiving the support and delivery on our sustainability journey with our students has been invaluable... Having the opportunity to work with Change Agents UK and the provision of their expertise has made a real difference to our staff and the students involved in the Sustainable Futures programme." Student Experience Manager, UK FE College 

Sustainable Futures is our flagship education and careers programme for students and young people aged 16-24. We help our learners to understand what sustainability means, what is happening in the world today and why social and environmental issues matter. We look at key concepts such as circular economies and introduce frameworks such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to help people to understand solutions-focused thinking. For learners at more advanced stages of education, we challenge them to consider the deeper causes of unsustainability and learn about systemic change.

## **Sustainable Futures for All: Education and Learning (continued)** 

We are experienced in facilitating students’ explorations of sustainability in the workplace. Our workshops give learners a chance to discuss how they can make positive change through many different sectors and roles, and how to go about this. Through interactive tasks, we encourage them to delve into their core values to enable them to identify work opportunities which align with their own personal ethics. 

We love to help participants explore the skills needed for a sustainable future, unpicking key qualities such as creativity and systems-thinking and engaging them in fun, stimulating exercises. Drawing on our Skills for the Future research, we discuss key skills for the workplace and enable participants to put them into practice. 

An important part of this programme is to build confidence as well as to develop knowledge; we demystify process of moving from education into work by exploring how students can share their unique story and communicate their skills and experiences in job applications and interviews. Participants leave with insight into their own values, inspired to bring sustainability goals into their future careers, equipped with the skills to do so and armed with sound employment advice to help them secure a fulfilling role. 

Thanks to the funding from the Postcode Local Trust, we engaged 328 young people in our Sustainable Futures programme during 2021. Many of our learners were studying in Further Education colleges in disadvantaged regions and without this funding may not have had any access to learning resources for sustainability, climate awareness and skills for the future. We also ran programmes for Higher Education students and graduates, who benefited from gaining a deeper understanding of sustainability and skills in relation to their career goals and support on how to make the transition into a future-focused role at what was a very challenging time for young people to begin a career. 

_"I liked how it made me think of the impact I can have, how I can play my part both in personal lifestyle choices but also in the career path I choose."_ 2021 Sustainable Futures participant 

_"The sessions were interactive, informative and thought provoking for all students and encapsulated all curriculum areas, employment areas and their impact on sustainability. The students as a result were able to research and question sustainability within their chosen industry and the positive impacts they can have on sustainability, both as employees and as individuals.” Student Experience Manager, UK FE College_ 

## **Getting to work in Sustainability** 

We are passionate about supporting people to use their working lives to drive forward sustainability. Our trading subsidiary principally functions as a successful sustainability recruitment and employment business, all profits from which are gift-aided to support the charity. We worked successfully with our partners to create and fill a further 17 Change Agent placements in 2021/22, each of them recruited to support the delivery of varied and useful sustainability programmes during the course of the year. This was in addition to the 44 Kickstarters for Sustainability whose placements we facilitated across a wide range of organisations. Change Agents UK Trading carries out valuable work that directly supports our charitable objectives by creating and supporting paid work placements and supporting our partners to fill their sustainability vacancies and progress sustainability within their organisations. Many sustainability projects would not be possible without the resources and support we are able to provide; we fill gaps in teams, populate projects and get things done. Skills and learning development are central to our DNA, so everyone we recruit through our employment business benefits from our Skills Development Programme. Through this work, we have helped to launch and nurture hundreds of sustainability careers. 

_"Over the past year we have found recruitment to be tricky, but working with Change Agents took the pain out of the process. They delivered strong candidates for interview and managed the recruitment in an efficient manner. We were very happy with the appointment we made." CEO, The Institution of Environmental Science_

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Equality, Diversity and Inclusion** 

Equality, diversity and inclusion are central to our work. We want to improve accessibility to education for sustainability development, future skills provision and address the low levels of diversity in the environmental science and sustainability professions. Our work this year has focused on opening doors for young people from all backgrounds, helping them to prepare for a successful and sustainable future. We will continue to strive for equality, fairness and justice. 


## **Financial review** 

- Group income amounted to £292,604 (2020/21: £345,439). 

- Total expenditure came to £278,019 (2020/21: £334,211). 

- The overrall Group results for the year showed a net surplus, before tax, of £14,585 (2020/21: £11,228). 

Emerging from the pandemic and building on our financial results in 2020/21, we were able to maintain our stronger income position and once again return a modest surplus, enabling us to strengthen our reserves and ensure we are a strong and stable organisation ready for future growth. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees have considered the requirement for free reserves which are those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed assets, fixed assets investments, or designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The Trustees have decided that the group should seek to maintain free reserves equivalent to 3 months’ revenue expenditure. 

The Group Balance Sheet shows free reserves, or Unrestricted Funds, of £169,581 (2020/21: £152,252). 

The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future; the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties about the entity's ability to continue. Therefore, the Trustees have used the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

An exciting programme of activity is underway to enable Change Agents UK to go further at a faster pace to grow our services and impact. Our education programmes are expanding to reach new audiences; whilst we have traditionally worked with students and youth groups, many others need our help to bring sustainability into their lives and organisations. We are developing our Green Careers & The Future of Work programme to help careers professionals and teams to support greater numbers of students to understand and prepare for the changing world of work. Our staff are certified as Carbon Literate and will develop and roll out Carbon Literacy provision for the groups with whom we work. We are expanding our Skills Development Programme, incorporating key areas such as systems thinking, creativity and effecting change. We will continue to grow our successful sustainability employment subsidiary, focusing on resourcing for net zero and sustainable development and supporting people to begin meaningful, futurefocused careers. 

We are also planning to expand our Board of Trustees and Directors and grow our staff team to support our plans for growth and will conduct a comprehensive programme of recruitment during 2022/23.

## **Report of the trustees (continued)** 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees have considered the Charities Commission's requirement in respect of Public Benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning future activities. 

The Charity undertakes a range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The Trustees consider that these activities provide benefit by advancing education in sustainable development through providing and facilitating training, seminars and workshops, attending conferences and through projects, work placements and the assimilation of knowledge and practical learning through real and meaningful work opportunities. 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

Company and charity law requires the Trustees of a charity 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 surplus or deficit of the charity for that period. 

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently, make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice (SORP) have been followed, subject to any departure disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to  presume that the company will continue in business. 

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

The maintenance and integrity of the Charity's website is the responsibility of the Trustees. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislations in other jurisdictions. 

Insofar as the Trustees are aware: 

- There is no relevant audit information of which the Charity's examiner is unaware; and 

- They have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

## **Independent examiners report to the members of CHANGE AGENTS UK CHARITY** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the consolidated accounts of the Group comprising Change Agents UK Charity ('the chartity') and its subsidiary undertakings for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 11 to 26. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated accounts of the Group in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’) and the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act') and you have chosen to prepare consolidated accounts for the Group. 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the group are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the consolidated accounts. I have carried out my examination under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the group’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the group as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act and section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirements that the accounts give a 'true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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.

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Income recognition** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to the income conditions and the amount can be probable. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

- Voluntary income received by way of donations and gifts is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. 

- Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. 

- Revenue grants are carried forward to the extent that the grantor specifies that the grant is for expenditure in future accounting periods. Grants carried forward in this way are accounted for as deferred income. 

- Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred. 

- Investment income is accounted for when receivable. 

## **Expenditure recognition** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred and includes irrecoverable VAT. 

- Costs of generating funds are the costs incurred in attracting voluntary income and trading activities which raise funds. 

- Charitable activities expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

- Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. 

- All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly; others are apportioned on a per project basis. 

- The company operated a defined contribution pension scheme for the benefit of the employees. The pension cost charged in the Statement of Financial Activities represents the amount of contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting period. 

## **Financial Instruments** 

The Charity only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares. 

## **Taxation** 

No provision has been made for corporation tax, as the company is of charitable status. A provision for corporation tax is necessary in the subsidiary undertakings on its taxable profits.
