The Chair's Statement l am proud to present the LTSB Trustee5' Report. It covers a very busy period of both direct delivery and infrastructure investment, as we ensure the charity has systems and structures for the next ten yeaTS of growth and life-changing work. The need for LTSB shows no sign of abating: in fact, conditions for social mobility in the UK seem to be getting tougher. But our current five-year strategy expands the way we address this problem. The Schools and Community programmes will help young people better articulate their ability and ambition, and find careers with purpose. And after years of preparing young people for work, our Employer programme will prepare work for young people Using our privileged access to hundreds of career journeys to help managers and social-mobility champions create environments where everyone can thrive. These new initiatives allow us to maintain the focussed, transformative work of our employment programme. At its heart, social mobility is about securing long-term careers, with pay and conditions that create the stability for home, holidays, hobbies in short, happiness. We will always remain committed to finding careers for those who need our help. Two highlights from this year stand out. Despite the focus on employment outcomes, it's also important to take stock of our longer-term impact, and the responses to our Alumni Survey have been a source of real pride. As well as promotions and pay-rises, we've heard about houses, marriages, children - it's a privilege to have played our part in those journeys. This im pact is why so many of our alumni continue to stay in touch and want to give back, and with the creation of our Alumni Committee and first full Alumni Trustee, Nabhan Moore, we have now formally integrated our benef iciaries at every level of the charity. LTSB will be the stronger for it. As always, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our Trustees, Patrons, employers, funders, donors, and supporters for the hard work that enables LTSB to deliver their much- needed social mobility programmes. But I would particularly like to recognise our staff.. your commitment to our young people and our work is remarkable, and LTSB would not be where it is today without your dedication and loyalty. Jeff Hayes OBE, Chair p2

Trustees, Report The Trustees present their Annual Report together with the audited financial statements of the Charity for the period 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024. The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees, report and a directors, report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the Current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). Since the Charity 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. Our Vision A world where all young people can choose their careers. Our Mission LTSB prepares, connects and supports young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to careers with leading organisations. Our programmes are designed to tackle the structural inequality in education and employment that prevents social mobility. We work with bright young people from lower socio-economic backgrounds across the UK and unlock their potential through personal and professional development and career-making employment. We do this by: Promoting opportunities to those from under-represented backg rounds Preparing young people lor the workplace, and the workplace for young people Placing Candidates in careers, stewarding and contextualising their application Providing pastoral care - a support network for the first year of their career. Our Programmes We help young people establish careers in the Business, Contact Centre, Customer Service, Digital, Legal and Marketing sectors. After our industry-specialised pre-employment programmes prepare them for work, we place them in meaningful roles and support them throughout the f irst year of their careei. Public Benefit LTSB operates for public benefit and general charitable purposes according to the laws of England and Wales. The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in deciding the activities undertaken by the Charity during the year, and in planning activities and setting pol ic ies for the year ahead. Beneficiaries The beneficiaries ol LTSB are young people between the ages of 16 and 24 from disadvantaged backgrounds. p3

Assessment of Public Benefit At each Trustees, meeting, the Trustees review reports prepared by the Senior Leadership Team. The reports cover programme impact and results, programme development, policy changes, f und raising, f inancial performance, and organisational risks. Th is enables the Trustees to ensure they are in line with our strategy and that we are effectively operating for the benefit of the public in accordance with our objectives. The Trustees are satisfied that the information provided in the report meets the public benefit reporting requirements. LTSB may also pursue other charitable purpose or purposes according to the law ol England and Wales as the Trustees in their absolute discretion shall select from time to time.

Senior Staff Changes CEO Rob Burton resi9ned in October 2024. Pete Ward will serve as Interim CEO until a successor is appointed. Strategy Implementation This reportin9 year is the first of our five-year strategy (bttpLItilly￿L0o￿). We have seen the following progress in our three Strategic Goals.. Ensure more young people are placed into meaningful careers and complete the first year of employment. This requires testing and measuring of potential new sectors. On one hand, we are starting an Insurance boot¢amp in the north-west for the 24-25 period, responding to industry growth and interest. On the other, we are suspending our Marketing programme, where entry-level roles are signif icantly impacted by mach ine-learning tools resulting in fewer young people being employed, and most being placed in non-marketing roles. Our plans for growth are chiefly within the charity's existing geographic footprint (London, North West and the Midlands, where we have existing staff networks located) but with significant growing interest and networks in Glasgow, we will also run core employment programmes there from 2025. Increase financial resilience through diversified provision. We have made significant progress with our Schools programme, and have confirmed a pilot to be run with over 180 Year Ten pupils from Saracens Academy in January - March 2025. We have also created four new roles - one at the Director level dedicated to developing alternative income streams. Create a culture of high standards, well-being and belonging. A core element of our strategy is substantial investment in our people and organisational structure. Our newly established HR/Operations function reinforces our internal capacity, equipping us to meet our obligations as a responsive, resilient employer and to support our team effectively in delivering on our mission. We are developing delivery staff by assessing them against a new excellence framework and recognising and rewarding high standards by investing in professional development and celebrating success. p6

Fundraising We are grateful to our funders, donors, and volunteers, without whom LTSB'S work would not be possible. We generate lunds through a range of income streams. Business development and f und raising activity is supported by a range of colleagues within the charity as wel l as Trustees. We take our fundraising Tesponsibility seriously and have policies in place to ensure good practice, in line with the charity governance code. We have never received a complaint regarding our lundraising practice, but our Finance and Risk Committee are the nominated body to handle complaints should they arise. Fundraising Activities On 11th May 2024, LTSB took part in a National Three Peaks Challenge event. The target was to raise £20,000 and the final result, after event fees, was £25,353. All income and expenditure was incurred during the year. The event was promoted through our website and social media channels. No professional fundraisers were used for this event. Neither LTSB nor any person acting on behalf of the charity was subject to an undertaking to be bound by any voluntary scheme lor regulating fundraising, or voluntary standard for fundraising in respect of activities on behalf of the charity. Governance LTSB is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Trust deed. LTSB is a well-governed charity with a board drawn from many different sectors, and a clear commitment to continuous learning, improvement and strengthening. Trustees are particularly keen to ensure the voices of young people and staff are heard at governance level and inform their decision making. Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 per member to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no benef icial interest in the charity. Trustee Recruitment and Induction Election, retirement and re-election of Trustees are Carried out according to the procedures set out in our Memorandum and Articles of Association, which is our governing document. LTSB reviews and recruits new Trustees to ensure the board is diverse and has the range of skills, knowledge and experience necessary to comply with its collective responsibility. Since our last report, one trustee, Juliet Thompson, has resigned. We are grateful for all her support. Four new trustees have been appointed: Victoria Kirkhope, Bharat Mehta, Nabhan Nassor Moore-Bastien and Ruth Poulten. All new Trustees have an induction to ensure their understanding ol the role of Trustees under charity law and being a Director under company law. Induction also provides an overview of LTSB, its mandate, policies, procedures, Structure, governance, mission and strategic direction with particular reference to the Charity Commission guidance. Role of Trustees The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co- opted under the terms of the Trust deed. p7

The Board of Trustees meet formally lour times a year and have ultimate responsibility for ensuring that.. LTSB complies with statutory and regulatory requirements, the strategic d irection is in l ine with the LTSB Constitutional objects, operational and financial management is in line with both LTSB'S strategic goals and the organisation's means, we are answerable to our beneficiaries and to our supporters, and there are adequate systems and procedures in place for good risk management. The board is responsible for safeguarding funds entrusted to us to positively change the lives of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. The board sub-committees provides oversight on Finance and reports to the main board. We have a zero tolerance policy on ITaud, bribery and corruption. Where appropriate, Trustees may take independent professional advice at no personal expense. LTSB has Trustees, Liability insurance in place wh ich is reviewed periodically. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. This assumes that the company will continue to operate for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements and will be able to meet their debts as they fall due. The Trustees have reviewed the financial forecast for the next twelve months and are Confident that with a healthy cash reserve balance, contracts in place, and fundraising successes that LTSB is on a secure financial footing. We have continued to receive funding in the period since the year-end, and at the date of signing the financial statements, LTSB had sufficient cash to cover more than six months of expenditure. Based on these factors, the Trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Remuneration Policy for Key Management Personnel Remuneration for LTSB'S key management personnel is decided by the CEO, in consultation with the Chair, and submitted to the Board for approval. Financial Review Total incoming resources for the year were £1 ,265,054 (2023.. £1,760,528) and total outgoing Tesources £1,255,931 (2023: £1,310,675), producing a surplus 01 £9,123 (2023.. £449,853). At the year end, the charity had unrestricted (free) reserves of £848,503 (2023.. £963,171), fixed asset5 of £384 (2023.. £2,936) and designated reserves of £062,840 (2023.. £339,835). This resulted in total unrestricted reserves of £1,511,727 (2023.. £1,305,942). Restricted reserves were £139,939 (2023: £336,601), giving total net reserves of £1,651,666 (2023: £1,642,543). Reserves The Trustees believe that LTSB should hold at least six months operating costs in reserve to ensure that the charity can continue to operate effectively in the event of unforeseen circumstances arising. LTSB had sufficient free reserves as at 30 June 2024 to meet this obligation. Due to our investment in staff, operating costs are assessed quarterly to ensure that the levels held are still suff icient to support the charity's growth. p8

Risk Management and Internal Control In accordance with good governance practices, the board regularly assesses the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the Charity. Each year the board undertake a comprehensive review of the risks faced by the Charity and of the steps and procedures needed to avoid and mitigate them, revising its Risk Register as appropriate, and ensuring it is satisfied that the necessary safeguards and procedures are in place, and that it can respond promptly to all foreseeable risks that may arise. A scheme of delegation is in place and the day to day operation of the Charity rests with the CEO. The CEO is responsible for ensuring that the Charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met. To ensure adherence to the Risk Management policy as stated above, the Charity management.. maintains a Risk Register continually reviews, monitors, takes action and documents risks facing the Charity brings any serious potential high risk to the attention of the Board as soon as it is known issues up-to-date Risk Register to the board annually, as well as any action taken or planned. Principal Risks & Mitigations We have identified two key risks to LTSB: Finance The principal risk to the charity is the proportion of income from a major corporate partner. While there is strong chance of renewed contract for 2026, there has been a reduction of demand and income from this for 2025, and further loss of this income would reduce our ability to maintain current levels of impact. Our long-term strategy has funding diversification as a main aim, with add itional programmes which will generate funds from a range of sources, including institutional and individual donors, events, corporates and commissioned income from contracts. To support this goal, we have created four new roles - one at the Director level dedicated to developing alternative income streams. We have good liquidity and strong reserves, including a healthy cash balance, allowing us suff icient time and resource to address any significant changes to the organisation. The Financial Sustainability Designated Fund is part ol our risk mitigation strategy. Economic Landscape The UK'S shifting political and economic environment presents Complex risks to both our mission and responsibilities as an employer. Changes in government priorities, economic instabil ity and new employment regulations may impact young people's opportunities and are increasing operational Costs directly affecting the disadvantaged young people we support. OUT programme diversification means we are no longer wholly reliant on employers and employment for growth and impact, with a schools programme that addresses fundamental inequalities that impact social mobility. This also preserves our ability to work in a locussed way on our core programmes: small numbers, transformative impact, which is less vulnerable to economic circumstances than a very large employment scheme. Finally, our newly established HR/Operations function reinforces our internal capacity, equipping us to meet our obligations as a responsive, resilient employer and to support our team effectively.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Leadership Through Sport and Business

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Leadership Through Sport and Business (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 30 June 2024, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities (including the income and expenditure account), the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

12

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 10, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

13

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

14

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Leadership Through Sport and Business

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2024

1 Accounting policies

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

a Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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), second edition - October 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Leadership Through Sport and Business meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.

b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees are very confident that with a healthy cash reserve balance, the multi-year contracts in place and the increase in the number of corporate partnerships, the charity is on a secure footing to create increased social impact in a financially robust way. The trustees are confident in our ability to generate funds from a variety of sources and support our funding diversification strategy.

The trustees have made no key judgments which have a significant effect on the accounts. The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

Leadership Through Sport and Business

c Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

d Donated services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity 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.

e Interest receivable

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

f Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

g Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

h Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity's programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 8.

i Operating leases

Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

j Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:

Office equipment 33%

k Current asset investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date. They are instant access deposits or bank deposits with a maturity of greater than 3 months but less than 12 months.

l Debtors

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 trade discounts due.

m Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash 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.

n Creditors and provisions

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 trade discounts due.

o Financial instruments

The charity 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

p Pensions

Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution ‘money purchase’ scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 10. There were £5,195 (2023: £4,631) outstanding contributions at the year end.
