OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and purpose

Purpose

The Alive and Kicking (AK) network exists to create happier, healthier, more empowered communities. As the world's only not-for-profit sports ball manufacturer, we positively impact the lives and livelihoods of people facing disadvantage by producing a sports ball like no other; one which creates better access to ethical jobs, play and vital health education.

Vision

Alive and Kicking UK is a trustee-led charity hub to support Alive & Kicking's mission in Africa to empower communities through the power of football and other sports. Through our Make, Play, Live philosophy, we strive to make sports balls accessible to all, to create sustainable job opportunities, foster entrepreneurship, drive economic growth, and advocate and support primary health programs for disadvantaged communities. Through skills development and innovative partnerships, we strive to uplift individuals, families and entire communities through the life cycle of a football, currently in Kenya and Zambia, with future ambitions to expand into new markets.

Make We economically empower adults from vulnerable backgrounds through employment and entrepreneurship. Through ball production, Alive and Kicking creates ethical jobs, and empowers refugees to set up their own micro enterprises.

Play We ensure children facing disadvantage have free, easy and safe access to sport through Alive and Kicking's inclusive sport programmes. Using the profits made from selling our sports balls, plus additional fundraising, we partner with trusted community organisations around the world to carefully donate Alive and Kicking sports balls. Our programmes are proven to boost the physical, mental and social wellbeing of those that access them.

Live We strive to ensure young people facing disadvantage are empowered with the tools they need to live happy and healthy lives through Alive and Kicking's innovative health education programmes. We train youth leaders across our network of trusted partners to deliver Mental Health and Sexual Reproductive Health & Rights education directly to young people in their local communities. Education is delivered directly through sports coaching, to positively impact the knowledge, behaviour and attitudes of those that access the programme.

Mission

Alive and Kicking UK's mission is to raise programme funds for social development, develop a network and raise finances for geographical expansion, and support ball sales through focusing on corporate partnerships, to ensure the vision can be delivered. This is achieved through fundraising activities and ball sales.

Values

Inclusivity, Equality, Empowerment, Community, Creativity

ALIVE AND KICKING UK

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

Overview

Alive & Kicking UK is the custodian of the organisation's Vision and how the Mission is implemented, and how the name and reputation is protected. Whenever an Alive and Kicking operation is set up, and for the duration of its existence, all members ensure that a governance framework is implemented and effective. This ensures that:

o The UK organisation is a registered charity.

o Alive and Kicking UK serves as a coordinating entity for a network of independent organisations operating under the Alive and Kicking name. The international network consists of Alive and Kicking Kenya and Alive and Kicking Zambia. Each member of the Alive and Kicking network is a legally distinct and separate entity and each describes itself as such. o Each company has a Board of Trustees/Directors with a Chair elected by simple majority.

o Each local country operation is set-up and empowered to direct and manage its own operations and, on incorporation (or as soon as possible if incorporation has already occurred), the Mission/Vision/Values of Alive and Kicking has been passed as a Resolution of the Company at the first General Meeting.

o Each local operation reports timely monthly accounts and audited financial statements, management reports, annual business plans, forecasts and budgets and such information as is reasonably requested by the UK Company. A quarterly report is shared with the UK Board of Trustees.

o A constitution based on a shared vision and mission of all three offices has been created and adopted by all three Alive and Kicking network members. This constitution sets out the principles and instruments on how Alive and Kicking is governed.

o The Board of AK Kenya, and AK Zambia are responsible for strategy in their countries of operation.

o Each AK network member is responsible for increasing ball production and distribution in its own country, expanding the AK health and quality-of-life programmes and publicising the work of the network.

o The Board of Trustees of AK UK, in close collaboration with the Boards of AK Kenya and AK Zambia, decides where feasibility studies are conducted and in which nations AK will establish new operations.

o AK UK raises the profile of the whole AK network, canvassing the support of major development agencies, sporting bodies, government departments, grant funding trust and foundations and private individuals through a fundraising and communications strategy. In addition, AK UK sells the balls manufactured in Kenya and Zambia to the UK market, and seeks international corporate partnerships to increase ball sales.

Public benefit

In shaping our objectives and planning our activities for the year, the Trustees have considered the duties set out in the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit and to the Charity Commission Guidance on public benefit. In particular, the Trustees have considered how the planned activities will contribute to the overall aims and objectives that they have set. The Trustees believe that section 1.2, 'Achievements and Performance', relay in detail the benefit that the charity provides to the public.

Volunteers

Special thanks are given to our Charity volunteers who have helped Alive and Kicking deliver impactful milestones during this period, only made possible through the continued support and encouragement of so many to provide much-needed resources in the development of our award-winning health and sport programmes, expertise in finance, event management, marketing, communications, corporate fundraising and ball sales.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

2023 and 2024 saw consistent and meaningful collaborations to amplify our impact, in the lead up to and during our 20-year anniversary. Since our inception in 2004, when AK's visionary founder Jim Cogan began the first leather football factory in Kenya, Alive and Kicking has touched countless lives, transforming communities across Africa and beyond through the power of play. This milestone year saw an expansion of our charitable activities, and we also reached a key milestone in achieving gender balance of employees and increasing our inclusivity for persons with disabilities by 5%. We produced over 30,000 balls and received the KEPSA Innovation Award in Kenya, in recognition of our commitment to innovation and creating solutions that make a real difference. Here are some of the charitable activities with direct involvement from Alive & Kicking UK;

Partnership with Stonewall; this collaboration commemorated the 10th anniversary of the Rainbow Laces campaign, resulting in the creation of a special edition football inspired by professional player and Stonewall ambassador, Vivianne Miedema

Refugee Up-skilling Programme; the programme based in Dadaab, Kenya, continued to thrive, equipping refugees and host communities with ball-making and repair skills, fostering economic empowerment and ensuring marginalised children have access to play. Balls created were donated to schools within the camp.

Mental Health Training Programmes in the Mount Kenya region; this programme trains teachers on mental health and uses football as the medium to get the mental health messages across to children. Three counties in the region took part.

FIFA Foundation & Sport in Action

This programme with AK Zambia trained sports coaches across Lusaka and Kabwe to deliver mental health education through our award-winning football-based programme.

Fundraising activities

In 2023 and 2024, Alive and Kicking UK, in addition to the ongoing fundraising from charitable foundations and grant programmes, we engaged in several notable fundraising activities:

Student-Led Initiatives: Students from Westminster School organized a 24-hour football marathon, raising approximately £50,000 for the charity.

Fundraising Tournaments: Alive and Kicking hosted a 5-a-side football tournament in 2024, with numerous teams participating to support the organization's mission.

Collaborative Campaigns: In late 2023, Alive and Kicking partnered with AMOS for the "December Dip" campaign, aiming to support mental health education for 5,000 young people across Sub-Saharan Africa

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

This Report covers the period 1 January 2023 to 30 June 2024, i.e. 18 months, whereas the previous Report was for the year to 31 December 2022.

The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net reduction in funds of £34,263 as at 30 June 2024 (2022: an increase of £10,141). The Balance Sheet shows net assets of £21,083. This is below the target reserve level of £40,000 and hence actions were taken to reduce financial commitments, including a reduction in staff numbers, the collection of debts and a renegotiation of the loans. By the end of 2024 staff levels had been substantially reduced to one contractor, and two lenders had agreed to convert part of the debts to grants. Cashflow forecasts to mid 2025 show a small but positive cash balance each month sufficient to cover three months costs (I.e £5,000 pcm) and this level of reserves has been approved by the Board. Much work remains to sell all the stock, and, crucially, to arrange successful fund-raising events and activities, whilst furthering the charitable purpose of the Charity.

The Trustees have carefully considered the financial position and prospects for the Charity for the reporting period and the following 12 months and conclude that the Charity has the ability to continue as a going concern.

FUTURE PLANS

The Board of Trustees have refocused the charity in 2025 to focus on reducing costs and increasing our fundraising activities in order to increase our social development and impact through our African entities.

The action plan is to;

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ALIVE AND KICKING UK

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Alive and Kicking UK ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 1st January 2023 to 30th June 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company 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 your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('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.

ALIVE AND KICKING UK

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and on that basis the charity is considered to be a going concern.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the entity, and are rounded to the nearest £1.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable.

Revenue grants are credited to the statement of financial activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier.

Where unconditional entitlement to grants receivable is dependent upon fulfilment of conditions within the charity's control, the incomes are recognised when there is sufficient evidence that conditions will be met. Where there is uncertainty as to whether the charity can meet such conditions the income is deferred.

Expenditure

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

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. Support costs, including governance costs, are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity:

Cost of generating funds 10% Ball production, distribution & health awareness 90%

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost Website - 25% on cost Computer equipment - 33% on cost

continued...

Page 13

ALIVE AND KICKING UK

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Taxation

The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK Corporation Tax purposes. Accordingly the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the charity is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both the current and future periods.

There are no estimates and assumptions that are considered to have a significant risk of causing a material adjustments to the financial statements in a future period.

Financial instruments

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

Financial Assets

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due.

Financial Liabilities

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and purpose

Purpose

The Alive and Kicking (AK) network exists to create happier, healthier, more empowered communities. As the world's only not-for-profit sports ball manufacturer, we positively impact the lives and livelihoods of people facing disadvantage by producing a sports ball like no other; one which creates better access to ethical jobs, play and vital health education.

Vision

Alive and Kicking UK is a trustee-led charity hub to support Alive & Kicking's mission in Africa to empower communities through the power of football and other sports. Through our Make, Play, Live philosophy, we strive to make sports balls accessible to all, to create sustainable job opportunities, foster entrepreneurship, drive economic growth, and advocate and support primary health programs for disadvantaged communities. Through skills development and innovative partnerships, we strive to uplift individuals, families and entire communities through the life cycle of a football, currently in Kenya and Zambia, with future ambitions to expand into new markets.

Make We economically empower adults from vulnerable backgrounds through employment and entrepreneurship. Through ball production, Alive and Kicking creates ethical jobs, and empowers refugees to set up their own micro enterprises.

Play We ensure children facing disadvantage have free, easy and safe access to sport through Alive and Kicking's inclusive sport programmes. Using the profits made from selling our sports balls, plus additional fundraising, we partner with trusted community organisations around the world to carefully donate Alive and Kicking sports balls. Our programmes are proven to boost the physical, mental and social wellbeing of those that access them.

Live We strive to ensure young people facing disadvantage are empowered with the tools they need to live happy and healthy lives through Alive and Kicking's innovative health education programmes. We train youth leaders across our network of trusted partners to deliver Mental Health and Sexual Reproductive Health & Rights education directly to young people in their local communities. Education is delivered directly through sports coaching, to positively impact the knowledge, behaviour and attitudes of those that access the programme.

Mission

Alive and Kicking UK's mission is to raise programme funds for social development, develop a network and raise finances for geographical expansion, and support ball sales through focusing on corporate partnerships, to ensure the vision can be delivered. This is achieved through fundraising activities and ball sales.

Values

Inclusivity, Equality, Empowerment, Community, Creativity

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

Overview

Alive & Kicking UK is the custodian of the organisation's Vision and how the Mission is implemented, and how the name and reputation is protected. Whenever an Alive and Kicking operation is set up, and for the duration of its existence, all members ensure that a governance framework is implemented and effective. This ensures that:

o The UK organisation is a registered charity.

o Alive and Kicking UK serves as a coordinating entity for a network of independent organisations operating under the Alive and Kicking name. The international network consists of Alive and Kicking Kenya and Alive and Kicking Zambia. Each member of the Alive and Kicking network is a legally distinct and separate entity and each describes itself as such. o Each company has a Board of Trustees/Directors with a Chair elected by simple majority.

o Each local country operation is set-up and empowered to direct and manage its own operations and, on incorporation (or as soon as possible if incorporation has already occurred), the Mission/Vision/Values of Alive and Kicking has been passed as a Resolution of the Company at the first General Meeting.

o Each local operation reports timely monthly accounts and audited financial statements, management reports, annual business plans, forecasts and budgets and such information as is reasonably requested by the UK Company. A quarterly report is shared with the UK Board of Trustees.

o A constitution based on a shared vision and mission of all three offices has been created and adopted by all three Alive and Kicking network members. This constitution sets out the principles and instruments on how Alive and Kicking is governed.

o The Board of AK Kenya, and AK Zambia are responsible for strategy in their countries of operation.

o Each AK network member is responsible for increasing ball production and distribution in its own country, expanding the AK health and quality-of-life programmes and publicising the work of the network.

o The Board of Trustees of AK UK, in close collaboration with the Boards of AK Kenya and AK Zambia, decides where feasibility studies are conducted and in which nations AK will establish new operations.

o AK UK raises the profile of the whole AK network, canvassing the support of major development agencies, sporting bodies, government departments, grant funding trust and foundations and private individuals through a fundraising and communications strategy. In addition, AK UK sells the balls manufactured in Kenya and Zambia to the UK market, and seeks international corporate partnerships to increase ball sales.

Public benefit

In shaping our objectives and planning our activities for the year, the Trustees have considered the duties set out in the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit and to the Charity Commission Guidance on public benefit. In particular, the Trustees have considered how the planned activities will contribute to the overall aims and objectives that they have set. The Trustees believe that section 1.2, 'Achievements and Performance', relay in detail the benefit that the charity provides to the public.

Volunteers

Special thanks are given to our Charity volunteers who have helped Alive and Kicking deliver impactful milestones during this period, only made possible through the continued support and encouragement of so many to provide much-needed resources in the development of our award-winning health and sport programmes, expertise in finance, event management, marketing, communications, corporate fundraising and ball sales.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

2023 and 2024 saw consistent and meaningful collaborations to amplify our impact, in the lead up to and during our 20-year anniversary. Since our inception in 2004, when AK's visionary founder Jim Cogan began the first leather football factory in Kenya, Alive and Kicking has touched countless lives, transforming communities across Africa and beyond through the power of play. This milestone year saw an expansion of our charitable activities, and we also reached a key milestone in achieving gender balance of employees and increasing our inclusivity for persons with disabilities by 5%. We produced over 30,000 balls and received the KEPSA Innovation Award in Kenya, in recognition of our commitment to innovation and creating solutions that make a real difference. Here are some of the charitable activities with direct involvement from Alive & Kicking UK;

Partnership with Stonewall; this collaboration commemorated the 10th anniversary of the Rainbow Laces campaign, resulting in the creation of a special edition football inspired by professional player and Stonewall ambassador, Vivianne Miedema

Refugee Up-skilling Programme; the programme based in Dadaab, Kenya, continued to thrive, equipping refugees and host communities with ball-making and repair skills, fostering economic empowerment and ensuring marginalised children have access to play. Balls created were donated to schools within the camp.

Mental Health Training Programmes in the Mount Kenya region; this programme trains teachers on mental health and uses football as the medium to get the mental health messages across to children. Three counties in the region took part.

FIFA Foundation & Sport in Action

This programme with AK Zambia trained sports coaches across Lusaka and Kabwe to deliver mental health education through our award-winning football-based programme.

Fundraising activities

In 2023 and 2024, Alive and Kicking UK, in addition to the ongoing fundraising from charitable foundations and grant programmes, we engaged in several notable fundraising activities:

Student-Led Initiatives: Students from Westminster School organized a 24-hour football marathon, raising approximately £50,000 for the charity.

Fundraising Tournaments: Alive and Kicking hosted a 5-a-side football tournament in 2024, with numerous teams participating to support the organization's mission.

Collaborative Campaigns: In late 2023, Alive and Kicking partnered with AMOS for the "December Dip" campaign, aiming to support mental health education for 5,000 young people across Sub-Saharan Africa

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

This Report covers the period 1 January 2023 to 30 June 2024, i.e. 18 months, whereas the previous Report was for the year to 31 December 2022.

The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net reduction in funds of £34,263 as at 30 June 2024 (2022: an increase of £10,141). The Balance Sheet shows net assets of £21,083. This is below the target reserve level of £40,000 and hence actions were taken to reduce financial commitments, including a reduction in staff numbers, the collection of debts and a renegotiation of the loans. By the end of 2024 staff levels had been substantially reduced to one contractor, and two lenders had agreed to convert part of the debts to grants. Cashflow forecasts to mid 2025 show a small but positive cash balance each month sufficient to cover three months costs (I.e £5,000 pcm) and this level of reserves has been approved by the Board. Much work remains to sell all the stock, and, crucially, to arrange successful fund-raising events and activities, whilst furthering the charitable purpose of the Charity.

The Trustees have carefully considered the financial position and prospects for the Charity for the reporting period and the following 12 months and conclude that the Charity has the ability to continue as a going concern.

FUTURE PLANS

The Board of Trustees have refocused the charity in 2025 to focus on reducing costs and increasing our fundraising activities in order to increase our social development and impact through our African entities.

The action plan is to;

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ALIVE AND KICKING UK

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Alive and Kicking UK ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 1st January 2023 to 30th June 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company 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 your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('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 your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland, 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 Company as required by 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 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; 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.

ALIVE AND KICKING UK

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and on that basis the charity is considered to be a going concern.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the entity, and are rounded to the nearest £1.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable.

Revenue grants are credited to the statement of financial activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier.

Where unconditional entitlement to grants receivable is dependent upon fulfilment of conditions within the charity's control, the incomes are recognised when there is sufficient evidence that conditions will be met. Where there is uncertainty as to whether the charity can meet such conditions the income is deferred.

Expenditure

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

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. Support costs, including governance costs, are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity:

Cost of generating funds 10% Ball production, distribution & health awareness 90%

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost Website - 25% on cost Computer equipment - 33% on cost

continued...

Page 13

ALIVE AND KICKING UK

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE PERIOD 1ST JANUARY 2023 TO 30TH JUNE 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Taxation

The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK Corporation Tax purposes. Accordingly the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the charity is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both the current and future periods.

There are no estimates and assumptions that are considered to have a significant risk of causing a material adjustments to the financial statements in a future period.

Financial instruments

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

Financial Assets

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due.

Financial Liabilities

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.
