Ordinary 2 Extraordinary

Trustees’ Report

For the Year Ended 31 January 2021

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2021.

Objects and Activities of the Company

Ordinary 2 Extraordinary (“O2e”) was founded to encourage sporting achievements in like - minded people who push themselves to their limits whilst raising money for the benefit of terminally ill and/or disabled children in the UK. Donations granted are to nominated charities.

Format of Accounts

The financial statements on pages 5 to 7 have been drawn up in compliance with ’Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice’ (revised 2005) and the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2005).

Financial Results and Commentary

During the year to 31 January 2021 O2e raised £127,467 through donations and fund raising events and made donations to nominated charities of £56,000. The total amount raised since the inception of O2e is £3,253,079 and the total of donations awarded to charities is £2,394,774.

O2e has almost no overheads as the organisation is run by volunteers and the costs of fund raising are met by the event participators and the directors. The only overhead costs are bank charges and the monthly Just Giving cost for processing of online donations and Gift Aid (which provides a net uplift of 19% on every donation received).

The difference between total receipts and donations is due to receipts of advanced deposits from participants for future fund raising activities, which are reported as “costs of generating income” in compliance with accounting practice.

Structure, Governance and Management

O2e is a registered charity and a company incorporated by guarantee with no share capital, exempted under section 60 of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirement to use “limited” as part of its name.

The rules of the company are prescribed in the company’s memorandum and articles of association.

The members of the company are the directors of the company: Anthony Padgett, Paul Slattery, Michael Brunker and David Davies (Chairman and Company Secretary). The directors of the company are responsible for managing the business of the charity and may exercise all the powers of the charity.

The charity may appoint a new director by ordinary resolution.

Unrestricted Reserves Policy

3

The charity has no paid employees or overhead costs. The charity, therefore, only maintains sufficient reserves to provide working capital in respect of fund raising events and aims to distribute to its nominated child related charities all remaining funds.

Ordinary 2 Extraordinary

Trustees’ Report (continued)

For the Year Ended 31 January 2021

Achievements and Performance

Despite the continuing impact of COVID and the cancellation of the two main annual events (Kev’s Big Ride and The Ball) the charity continues to build on the tremendous achievements of the preceding years. The total amount of money raised in the year was £127,467 (2020: £223,046).

Involvement of volunteers:

All events are organised by teams of individuals directly. The O2e management team aids in coordinating the events, raising awareness, providing a central coordination function and ensuring governance. Consistent with O2e principles, none of the participants (including the management team and directors) are paid for their activities. Almost all costs associated with the activities and the administration of the company are funded by the directors and participants.

Fund raising activities:

Fund raising activities involved individuals and groups undertaking a variety of challenges in return for charitable donations.

Donations granted in the year ended 31 January 2021 totalled £56,000 and comprised:

Rutherford School 8,000
The Pace Centre 8,000
New Horizons 8,000
St. Elizabeth’s 8,000

Ordinary 2 Extraordinary

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its income and expenditure for that year.

In preparing those 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; prepare financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in existence.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income did not exceed £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants (England and Wales).

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
