REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The Trustees' Report is also a Directors' Report as required by s417 of the Companies Act 2006. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (effective 1 January 2019) applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006.

The purpose of this document is to report on the charity's activities during the reporting period in order to meet its legal responsibilities as both a charity and a company limited by guarantee, and to demonstrate how the charity works toward achieving its objectives and aims.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

For the benefit of the public generally and, the inhabitants of the London Borough of Brent and surrounding areas in the United Kingdom and Grenada in the Caribbean -

Public benefit

In planning and reviewing the above activities, the trustees have given careful consideration whether they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

The Jason Roberts Foundation (JRF) core services, funding and good practice information and advice, volunteer recruitment and training are available to all voluntary and community groups in the London Borough of Brent largely free of charge. In this way we indirectly provide public benefit to all sections of the community including ethnic minority groups, people with disabilities, older people and children/young people and many thousands of residents who benefit from services provided by groups we support.

Increasingly over the last three years we have also undertaken projects which benefit the public directly, for example, working with residents on local estates by supporting unemployed local people to gain work experience through volunteering as well as promoting community integration through events and activities.

Grantmaking

JRF does not have a direct grant making function.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy

Introduction

The Charity Commission recognises the need for charities to hold sufficient reserves to secure their viability beyond the immediate future and to protect themselves against future uncertainties. It recommends that charities should be able to demonstrate, by reference to the charity's current position and prospects, why holding a particular level of reserves is right for the charity at the present time. Responsibility for establishing an appropriate reserves policy lies with the trustees of the charity.

The charity's reserves are allocated to two different types of funds in its financial statements:

Restricted funds

These funds relate to unspent money from grants and other incoming sources where the funder has specified what the money must be spent on, and the trustees do not have the power to use the funds for other purposes.

Unrestricted funds

These funds relate to unspent money from grants and other incoming sources where the funder has not specified what the money should be spent on thereby granting the trustees full control to spend on general activities which further the objectives of the charity.

The following relates to the level of unrestricted funds, needed by the charity.

Reasons for reserves

Unrestricted reserves may be needed to provide cover and security in the following events:

Policy and procedures

The Board of Trustees has reviewed the level of reserves needed by the charity and agreed that:

Reserves review

The level of reserves and the potential wind-up costs will be reviewed annually by the Board of Trustees, and charity's financial position will be monitored by the Board on a quarterly basis (unless financial circumstances require a more urgent change).

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

Our key targets for the next 12 months include:

Infrastructure:

Jason Roberts, MBE resigned as Chair of the Foundation effective from the 6th June 2023 and will be referred to as the Founder and Patron.

Trustees: As planned, we have recruited our first Youth Trustee, Ridwaan Jama, who has grown up attending JRF sessions, has volunteered to support staff and coaches, and has proven himself to be a responsible Ambassador for the Foundation. 'We still need to bring additional trustees to the board to diversify the skills base. In particular, the recruitment of a trustee with significant city/business connections is desirable and will continue to identify further suitable candidates. This process continues without financial investment to an external recruiter.

Fundraising:

We continue to establish a more diverse economy for the Foundation, including statutory grants, grant making trusts, earned income and corporate sponsorships. The latter two are essential to create an unrestricted reserve for the Foundation and a "buffer" for the future.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Jason Roberts Foundation (JRF) is a company limited by guarantee without share capital, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. The company is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, originally adopted by special resolution dated 21 December 2006. The Memorandum and Articles of Association have since been amended and the latest governing document has been adopted by special resolution dated 11 January 2008. The company is registered as a charity, dated 19 April 2007, with the Charity Commission.

The company has no share capital, but in the event of the company winding up, the members have undertaken to contribute a sum not exceeding £10 to the assets of the company. Trustees are not members as individuals and therefore do not hold guarantees.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The Board of Trustees (Board) comprise a maximum of 14 trustees. Of these, a maximum of 9 trustees are elected by full members of the charity, and a maximum of 5 may be co-opted, having regard to their relevant qualifications and skills. One third of the elected trustees retire by rotation at each annual general meeting and may offer themselves for re-election. The appointments of co-opted trustees are reviewed annually by the Board. The Board is expected to meet four - six times a year.

New trustees are given an induction by the Chair and are provided with an information pack outlining JRF's activities. In addition, new trustees are invited to visit JRF's offices for a meeting with the Chief Executive and introduction to staff. The Board considers the trustee, staff and volunteer skills and training needs.

Organisational structure

The Board is responsible for the overall management and direction of the charity. The Board take all major financial, organisational and policy decisions. The Board meetings receive regular project progress reports and quarterly financial management reports. The Board agrees an annual Action Plan (setting priorities for the year ahead) and receives an annual Performance report (reporting achievements on the previous year). The Board agrees all new staff posts and receives copies of annual appraisal reports on each member of staff.

Day to day management and operational issues (including approval of purchase orders and invoices) are delegated to the Chief Executive.

Wider network

The trustees maintain a network of contacts in the London Borough of Brent (LBB) and surrounding areas through the delivery of various services, projects, and programmes. In addition, a wider network of contacts is made through membership, consortia arrangements and partnerships in the aforementioned areas.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Risk management

JRF has a formal Risk Assessment analysis which is reviewed annually by trustees. This covers financial, staffing, management, and operational risks.

In common with other voluntary organisations, JRF has had to respond to changing financial circumstances and maximise the benefits of funding opportunities as they arise. However, it has also adopted a more strategic approach to funding to minimise the risk of significant variations in the organisation's income from year to year and has adopted several measures to reduce levels of unanticipated risks and ensure (as far as possible) longer-term financial stability.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees (who are also the directors of The Jason Roberts Foundation for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".

Company law 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 charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to

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

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Approved by order of the board of trustees on 23 October 2025 and signed on its behalf by:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JASON ROBERTS FOUNDATION

I report to the trustees (who are also Directors for the purpose of company law) on my examination of the financial statements of The Jason Roberts Foundation ('the charitable company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes.

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of charitable company you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charitable company's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act') and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a 'true and fair' view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner's statement.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the charitable company'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 am a member of ICAEW which is one of the listed bodies.

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

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charitable company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

  2. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  3. the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 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.

The financial statements are drawn up on the going concern basis which assumes the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future; taken to be 12 months from the signing of the financial statements. The Trustees have given due consideration to the working capital and cash flow requirements of the charity. The Trustees consider the charity's current and forecast cash resources to be sufficient to cover the working capital requirements of the charity for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for income and expenditure during the period. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates.

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

Grants receivable, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. Where income is received in advance, recognition is deferred and included in creditors and where entitlement arises before income is received the income is accrued.

Donations are recognised in the financial statements when the charitable donation has been received, or if, before receipt, there is sufficient evidence to provide the necessary certainty that the donation will be received, and the value of the incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. Intangible income by way of donated facilities and services is recognised as an incoming resource where the provider has incurred a financial cost. The financial cost can usually be reasonably quantified in the instance of an individual or an entity as part of their trade or profession. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.

Interest receivable on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Trust; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Charitable activities

Charitable activities comprise 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 associated of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Support costs

Support costs, which are not directly attributable to generating funds or charitable activities, are allocated to those categories based on the appropriate combination of headcount, staff time and transaction volumes.

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 - 25% on reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance

THE JASON ROBERTS FOUNDATION

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets

Computer equipment - 25% on reducing balance

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

All assets are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of an asset initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. 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 an institution within the meaning of the Charities Act 2011 and as such is a charity within the meaning of Section 506(1) of the Taxes Act 1988. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains within categories covered by Section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 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. The charity receives no similar exemption in respect of Value Added Tax.

The charity is an institution which is established for charitable purposes within the meaning of the Charities Act 2011 and as such is a charity within the meaning of Para 1 of Schedule 6 to the Finance Act 2010. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Sections 478-488 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 (formerly enacted in Section 505 of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988) or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that such income or gains are applied to exclusively charitable purposes. The charity receives no similar exemption in respect of Value Added Tax. For this reason, the charity is generally unable to recover input VAT it suffers on goods and services purchased. The charity is not registered for VAT, as the trustees consider the charity's sources of income are exempt from VAT. VAT is included within the attributable cost under resources expended.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or governing document.

Unrestricted funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitably objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose.

Further details of each fund are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

Financial instruments

Financial assets (including cash and debtors) and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Additionally, all financial assets and liabilities are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into.

Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs) and are subsequently remeasured where applicable at amortised cost.

Financial assets include cash, trade debtors and other debtors. Financial liabilities include trade creditors and other creditors.
