WORDS FROM OUR PATRON
2023 marked 8IGKID's 15 years as a registered charity. This is a notable achievement as,
sadly, these challenging times mean that so many charities are being forced to close.
Happily, BIGKID continues to grow. cementing our vital role within Brixton. running
programmes year-round for both young people and the wider community. We offer a safe
space with trust and respect at its core. where our members can safely explore. develop and
strive to reach their potential. On a visit to Dexters last summer, I was so impressed to see
how BIGKID has transformed the Space with welcome 5UPPOrt from the people of Brixton
and from the local authority.
In my 7 years a5 Patron, I have been delighted to See how BIGKID has spread its wings. firstly
within Brixton and, more recently beyond the Borough boundaries with school programmes
now established in Lewisham, Southwark and Wandsworth. not forgetting our continuing
partnership with the NFL which enables us to engage with young people across the city- This
vear has also seen us make a mark internationally with our participation at events arranged
to reduce inequity and end youth violence.
In these especially challenging times. it has never been more important to promote our
values of Respert, Leadership. Education and Change.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Raising a Villa8e
Raising any child. let alone a village. comes with its challenges. its highs. its lows. the
laughter and the tears. Building an ecosystem of individuals who are passionate about
seeing a child thrive and develop is something that you cannot put a price on. You don't just
want your foundation to hold up. you want it to be firm and to have the base for sutcess
going forward. BIGKID has done this by creating a positive community of unique individuals.
all with their own past experiences. unique upbringings. diverse cultures and varyin8
knowledge, all united by a shared goal - to end youth violence. A shared goal met by
exclusive why's captures the dynamic nature of a village. Every individual is for the
development of our young people- however, it is our own individual reasons why we do
what we do that makes our youth work unique. This is where we find a sense of belonging
and purpose, giving us our own rnotivation and drive to each contribute to that shared goal.
A Year Around The Worfd
BIGKID went global this year! Although our mission is unique to us, it is a global issue that
must be addressed. A young person will find it hard to dream if all they see is the same
environment that is bringing them down. How can they reach for the stsrs ifthey don't
know what the world looks like outside of their home? Here at BIGKID we look to take
voung people out of their everyday life and put them in positions that broaden their view of
the world, helping them to see what opportunities are out there.
This year we were lucky enough to spread our message across the world in different ways,
but all leading back to our mission to end youth violence. Starting off in Las Vegas in
February to follow Teom Ghana in the Youth Flag Championships at the NFL Pro Bowl,
Trinidad & Tobago in June to share our methods and offer advice and solutions to reduce
youth violence and increase youth engagement in Trinidad. then South Africa in September
nd Ghana in October- both alongside NFL Africa.

J￿hebed
Jochebed first got involved with BIGKID when they came to her school to run a footbal
after-school club. Enjoying it, She also tried the community session in Larkhall Park. She said
although it was scary to join in at first, she was made to feel welcome and enjoyed the
vibes. She enjoyed the challenge of the sessions and felt she could have a future playing
football.
Then the COVID pandemic hit and everything changed.

During lockdowns. Jochebed kept in touch with BIGKID. joining in some of the online
se55ions. Staff would check in with her and her family regularly. delivering food boxes and
other support where needed. Coming out of lockdown restriction5, Jochebed started coming
back to BIGKID. As well as getting back to sport and joining youth club. she benefitted from
1=1 session5. initially with coach Jonathan. then later with Paris when he started as Health &

programme and taking part in community events for the NFL Foundation. She even had the
chance to travel to Las Vegas for NFL Flag ProBowl and ha5 been seleded forTeam GB

Thierri and Tom had the whole of BIGKID behind them cheeringthem on as theywere able
to smash the event and help fundraise almost £1.5001
October saw a new challenge on the horizon. The Royal Parks Half. Deeply inspired by
Thierri. Omari took on this challenge. With no Marathon experience at all, like Thierri, Omari
wasn't letting anything stop him from getting to the finish line. An extra dose of motivation
from Thierri pulled Omari across the line as he was fighting cramps on the home stretch.
Seeing our young people put themselves forward to take on challenges to help give back to
BIGKID is very moving. it's a testament to the work we put in and their resilience to do
events like these is a token of their appreciation.
That wasn't all l Our Head of Development. Kathy Silenga, tackled the 2-rnile open water

Cumberbatch-wynter. endured a Erueling 6 hour walk of the Victoria line all the way from
Walhamstow to Bflxton and Marina Sa, one of our Programme officers. and a team of
f riends took on a sk inflatable obstacle course- their amazing combined efforts helped raise
almost £5,0(M)!

2023 was the year where we asked our partners from across London to notjust talk the talk
but walk the walk. Kicking off our inaugural CityBowl at Selhur5t Park on a hot summerfs
day. everyone was readyto go. including a team from the NFL UK office. The day started off
with some words from Jonathan about the rules and how it was all going to run. Then the
royal rumble began. with high hopes for the NFL to take it. especially with two GB players on
their squad. The competition was fierce and mighty but not just to our surprise, everyone
was shocked with Latham & Watkins walked away with the winningtrophyl Who will be
there to challenge them in 2024??
Ouring the summer our amazing ambassador Efe Obada continued to give back to the
community and inspire more young people with a high profile event held in Crystal Palace at
the venue for our caEe league. Inside the dome is where the young people were going
through drills and yoga. while outside were games and workshops on mental health with

Incomlng resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when
entitlement has passed to the charity: it 15 probable that the economic benefits
a550ciated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably
measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income=
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of
entitlement to the gift. receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
income frorn donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless thi5 15
impractical to measure reliably* in which case the value 15 derived from the cost to
the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilitie5 and 5ervice5 are
recogni5ed in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No
amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteer5.
income from contracts for the supply of Services 15 recognised with the delivery of
the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is
contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if
unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure
includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered. and 15 classified under heading5 of the
statement of financial activities to which it relates:
expenditure on raising funds include5 the costs of èll fvndraising activities, events, non-
charttsble trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
expenditure on charitable adivities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking
activities that further its charitable aims for the benefrt of its benefjciaries, including those
support costs and costs ￿ lating to the governan￿ of the charity apportioned to charitable

are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable. justifiable ond
consistent basis.
Tanglble assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost. and subsequently stated at cost less any
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued
amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent
accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment105ses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an a55et as a result of a revaluation, is recognised
in other retognised gains and losse5. unless It reverses a charge for impairment that has
previously been recogni5ed as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A
decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation. is recognised in
other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previou5 revaluation
gain, in which case the 1055 is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the
statement of financial activities.
Depre¢iation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset. less its
residual value. over the useful economic life of that a55et as follows:
Motor vehicles
Equipment
25% reducing balance
33% straight line
Impaimient of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the
recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying
value exceeds the recoverable amount. the a55et is impaired accordingly. Prior
impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testin& when it is not possible to estimate the
recoverable amount of an individual asset. an estimate is made of the recoverable
amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The ca5h-generating unit
is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash
inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of 35sets.
For impairment testing of goodwill. the goodwill 3¢quired in a business combination is,
from the acquisition date. allocated to each of the cash-generoting units that are
expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other
assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.

Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a
party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable
including any related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other
consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured ai amortised cost.
Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be
measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes
in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are
subsequently measured at cost less impairment.
Other financial instruments. including derivatives. are initially recognised at fair value,
unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a
rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the
present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar
debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. with any changes
recognised in the statement of financial activities. with the exception of hedging
instruments in a designated hedging relationship.
Financial asset5 that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective
evidence of irnpairment at the end of each ￿pOrting dote. If there is objective evidence
of impairment. an impairment 105s is recognised under the appropriate heading in the
Statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was ￿cOgnISed.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are
individually significant. these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial
assets are either assessed inLJividually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk
characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately. to the extent that the reversal
does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying
amount would have been had the impairment not previously been retognised.

Defined contrib￿lon plan5
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period
in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset
to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash
refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end
of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability 15
measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is
recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
There are no significant judgements (apart frDm those involving estimates) that have
been made in the process of applying the above accounting policies on amounts
recognised in the financial statements.
There are no key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation
uncertainty at the reportin8 date considered to have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year.

The company is limited by guarantee and in consequence does not have share capital. In
the event of the company being wound up members are required to tontribute an
