TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purpose of the Companies Act) present their annual report together with the financial statements of the company ("the company") for the year 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The objective of the charity is to promote social inclusion for public benefit, particularly for the Roma people (in Serbia) and for people with disabilities, by preventing people from becoming socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society.
b. Activities for achieving objectives
GRUBB actively fights racial prejudice through the GRUBB educational centres, the GRUBB Show and the various arts and education programmes created to advocate our goals.
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance used by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities Grubb Forward should undertake.
c. Grant making policies
It is the policy of Grubb Forward to grant funds to run tutoring and artistic programmes in Belgrade, Nis and Novi Sad.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
During the year, the company received donations of £114,911 (2023 - £93,629). Caroline Roboh, a member of the Board of Trustees donated £53,184 (2023 - £91,929), The Beaverbrook Foundation donated £NIL (2023 - £1,200), Sir Gordon Palmer donated £NIL (2023 - £500), Grubb Productions CIC donated £21,727 (2023 - £NIL) and Gift Aid of £40,000 (2023 - £NIL) was received.
As at 31 December 2024, there was a deficit on unrestricted reserves amounting to £125,028 (2023 - £108,961) and no restricted reserves (2023 - £NIL). The unrestricted reserves are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
In the current year, the Trustees have made grants in excess of the total reserves available, funded by a loan received from a Trustee. As a result, the charity has a net liability position at the balance sheet date of £125,028 (2023 - £108,961). Prior to making such grants, the Trustees obtained the confirmation of the fellow Trustee (lender) that the loan would not be repayable until such time as the charity has sufficient funds to meet its obligations and make any such repayment. The charity has cash reserves of £7,885 (2023 - £68,437) as at the year end, and the Trustees expect the balance sheet position to be reversed within the foreseeable future such that donations will exceed charitable expenditure and positive reserves are maintained.
GRUBB has created various projects to allow the collaboration and integration of Roma and non Roma young people including the three GRUBB education centres in Serbia and the GRUBB Show. The GRUBB centres have a high success rate in keeping Roma children in school and allowing them to pass their exams.
b. Investment policy and performance
The sole investment is in the wholly owned subsidiary, Grubb Productions CIC. Please see the fixed asset investment note for further details.
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three to six months of expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
As disclosed in the "Review of activities" above, the Trustees made grants in excess of the available reserves in the year. Appropriate steps to ensure that the charity will be able to meet its obligations were taken at the time of making the grants. The charity has sufficient cash reserves to allow it to continue to meet it's activities.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures 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 adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Grubb Forward Ltd ('the company')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Trustees of the company (and 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 the company's accounts 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
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.

Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the company's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose.

GRUBB FORWARD LTD
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page one. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company.
The address of its registered office is Elsey Court, 20-22 Great Titchfield Street, London, W1W 8BE.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Grubb Forward Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
The charity's functional and presentational currency is pound sterling.
2.2 Going concern
As at the year end, the balance sheet shows that the company has liabilities in excess of assets as a result of a Trustee loan to the company. The Trustees are of the opinion that this is temporary and therefore the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. A Trustee has confirmed that she will provide support to the charity by not recalling the loan in the foreseeable future and therefore there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Donated services or facilities are recognised when the company has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the company of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the company which is the amount the company would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

GRUBB FORWARD LTD
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.
Support costs are those incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Charitable activities and governance costs are costs incurred on the company's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the company apportioned to charitable activities.
2.5 Investments
Investments in subsidiaries are shown at cost less impairment.
2.6 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
2.7 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation.

GRUBB FORWARD LTD
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.8 Financial instruments
The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
2.9 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
2.10 Group accounts
The financial statements present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group. The company and its subsidiary undertaking comprise of a small-sized group. The company has therefore taken advantage of the exemptions provided by section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare group accounts.
2.11 Cash flow
Since the company qualifies as small under section 383 of the Companies Act 2006, it has taken advantage of the exemptions permitted by the Charities SORP not to prepare a statement of cash flows.
