CONSTITUTION. 08JECTIVES AND AcTI￿nE5 Royal Intern*ional Air Tattoo Flying Scholarships for Disabled People IFSDPI was incorporated on 20 June 2012 and registere(J as a charity on 11 September 2012. For legal reasons, its previous unincorporated charity. The Royal International Air Tattoo Flying Scholarships for Disabled People Ifomierly 'for the Disabled) in memory of Group Captain Sir Douglas Bader CBE DSO. DFC. IDBMFI. is being kept open for the sole purpose of holding the permanent endowment fund5 and for any future legacies in that name. On 7 February 2013, for administrative and accounting convenience, the Charitie5 Commission approved a Scheme whereby DBMF became a linked charity of FSDP and ceased to be a separate charity. The governing document for both the incorporated and the unincorporated charities IS the Articles of Association as adopted on 20 June 2012. The object of FSDP is to relieve the conditKJn of. and improve the quality of life of, disabled people by helping them to discover their true potential through the mental and physical stimulation of learnirbg to fiy a light aircraft. For the purwses of the charity. 'disabled people, means persons who are physically disabled or handicapped or othepwise impeded for any medical reason from leading a normal life. The normal pattern of events initially requires disabled people wishing to apply for a Scholarship to complete a comprehensNe application form. A preliminary selection board considers all the applicants. typically about 40 per year, and selects up to approximately 18 to go fO￿ard to a three- day final selection board at RAF Cranwell. There. the candidates are subject to medical assessment, interviewed. undertake a variety of tests and also have the opportunity to find out more alY)ut what the scholarship involves. Members of the selertion board include the Trustees. FSDP supporters. flying school irbstructors and the medical team. The latter pay the crucial role of evaluating an applitant's potenlial io meet the Civil AviatK)n Authorit￿5 medical requirements. Scholarships are awarded to those that the selection board collectple￿ consider are most likely to Use the experien so gained significantly to enhance their individual overall well being. The actual number of scholarships awarded in any one year is dependent on a combination of the suitability of the applitants. the number of sponsors and the overall financial state of the charity. Apart from its website and leaflet distribution at relevant events, the scheme is advertised on Facebook Iwww.www.facebook.com in Scholarshi sForDisabledPeo Linkedln Ihttps-.Ilwww.linkedin.comlcompany1106367731adminll and Twitter Iwww.twitter.comlFSFDPI.

REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 also enjoys some modest local PR coverage of the activities of some scholars. Most applicants encounter the charity through our orh-site presence at the Royal International Air Tattoo IRIATI, bv visiting the webstte. from social media. reading case histories in specialist magazines. from ex FSOP scholars or from Aerobility- a British flyin8 charity for disabled people. The majority of scholarships are sponsored although some are finanted by the dividends received from FSDP'S end¢)wment fund investments or fundraislng. Each year there are varbjus fundraising activities including the annual Christmas Newsletter. STrVCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT OT8anlsallonal Str￿￿re The administration of the chartty is vested in the Trustees. Current￿ ten in number, who delegate the day-to-day operation of the charity to its General Mana8ef. Lou Buckley, who also acts as Secretary to the Trustees. In addition to the quarterly Trustee meetings. the Trustees typically participate in 311 asperts of the annual selection procedure for scholars. attend the Presentation Ceremony at the Royal International Air Tattoo I"RIAfi, on which occasK>n the scholars are presented with their certificate or wings. and also Visit scholars during their training. Trustees At the annual general meeting in each year. the Trustees elect one of their number to be Chair until the hnnual general meeting of the following year. The previous year's Chair may stand for re- election. When a vacanq arises on the Board. the Trustees assess the implications in terms of any consequent shortfall in pertinent background. knowledge. skill or experience. The latter. together with considerations relating to diversity. informs the decision as to the nature of the replacement Trustee soughL Adverbsing for Trustees has proved fruitless and invariably suitable individuals are identified through personal connections. As and when an individual rs identified as a p)tential Board member. slhe is approached to determine interest in, and the capacity to. join the Board. Subsequently, an inteNiew by Trustees is arranged during which a detailed briefing on the purpose and objectives of the charity is given along with guidance on the responsibilities of a Trustee.

The Trustees are typically appointed for an initial temi of 4 years and may. at the discretion of the Board, serve one further term of up to 4 years. While 8 years is the usual maximum, exceptions mav be made where it is difficult to recruit the appropriate skills or expertise. There is a Trustee rotation plan that prompt5 early consideration of the need to retsin and replace the ￿qUISIte knowledge and expertise in the trustee trfjdy. GovernaKe Code The Trustees are committed to good governance and readi￿ adhere to the Seven Principles of the Charity Governance Code. During this accounting period all of our policies were brought on line and subsequentty reviewed and. as appropriate, amended. All Trustees are required to affirm they have rea(1 all policies. The selection process also remains under review with a particular focus on reducing the risk of unconscious bias. Experience this year has also prompted the necessity to give both flying schools and applicants better guidante as to the chariws expectations of individuals who accept a scholarship. There is an outstanding requirement forthe Board to review its own perfomiance. Page 6 ROYAL INTERNATIONAL AIR TA￿00 FIYING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR D15ABLEO PEOPLE IA company limlted by guarantee) TRUSTEEY REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE The constraints associated with the COVID-19 pandemic made for a challenging environment in which the charity had to operate. However. the Trustees were detemiined that. after a fallow year in 2020, scholarships should proceed. While the initial screening of applications meeting could all be done online, the unavailability of the facilities provhled by RAF Cranwell necessitated a different approach to final selection. The SUC￿55 of the process subsequently adopted, which involved using Zoom for interviews, the facilities at Kemble for aircraft familiarisation and a Cirencester GP practice for the medicals, owed much to the exceptional efforts of Tony Cann, Lou Buckley, Or Gus Hickish and our mentor team. led by Amanda Edmunds. While it was not ideal and, with the benefit of hindsight, there was scope for improvement. it worked. A total of 13 Sch￿arShIpS were awarded as follows: Charlotte Hart. Yvonne Mccarthy. Arthur Moan and Sheeba Mir with Gryphon Aero Club at Cotswold Airport; Matthew Williamson, Albert Thomson and Simon Gillespie-Khan with Bristol Aero Club at Gloucestershire Airport; Scott MacLeod and Philip Marlow with Turweston Flying Uub at Turweston Aerodrome- and Tim Mabon, David Follett, Fleur O'Reilly and Will Behenna with Shadow Aviation at Compton Abbas Alrfield. A total of 7 of the scholarships We￿ generousty sponsored by British Airways High Flight. Woddwings Trust, Lockheed Martin. Wings Around the World and a most welcome and engaged newcomer, Boeing. In addition, we were able to make a "Scholar5' Scholarf award, underwritten by the fundraising efforts of both Trustee5 and previous scholars. Further awards were also made in the name of Pooleys Flight Equipment. who donate a fight bag and manuals to every scholar, and 2496 Icumbernauldl Squadron Air Cadets. who provide extensrve administrative support to the charity, in recognition of their singular contributions. Although the RAF Charitable Trust did not have the resources to sponsor a scholar. an award was made in the Trust's name in recognition of their past support and the ongoing link between the two charities. Two scholarships were also given in the name of the charttVs founders. Paul Bowen and Tim Prince. Unfortunately, the RIAT was cartcelled for a second successive year. In consequence, the coincident presentation teremony. at which our 2019 Scholars would have received their 'Wings' and other trophies would be awarded. did not take place. Final decisions remain pending as to the potential recipients. for both 2019 and 2021. for Yhe Wings Around the World Trophy, and 'George Stewart Memorial Trophy (given respective￿ to the womanlman who has benefitted the most from being awarded a scholarship in the previous year). However, 'The Douglas Bader Trophrf (the result of a generous legacy from Gregory Whiteley, which is 8iven to the individual who has contributed most to the Charity in the preceding 12 months) will be awarded at RIAT 2022 as follows: 2020 Julle Bull (retired General Manager) 2021 The FSDP Mentor Team of 2021 Page 7 ROYAL INTERNAnChNAL AIR TArroo FLYING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR DISABLED PEOPLE IA cornpany Ilmited by8u¥anteel TrUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENOED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 We fulfilled most of our objectives for 2020121 most notably that of improving our outreach to. and support for, the wider family of the charity made up of previous scholars, Trustees and other supporter5. The practical consequence was the creation of a members, only area on our website called the 'Big Wing. la reference to the char￿5 antecedents of having been founded in memory of Sir Dougla5 8aderl. The Big Wing is a forurn that allows members to exchange idea5, seek and obtain advice on a range of subjects, watch online webinars. gain updates on FSDP artivities or simply socialise. The initiative has been a modest success and will be fvrther developed. The Trustees remain indebted to all our sponsors. supporters, stholars and members of the public for their donations, which have enabled the charity to function during the past year. However, it has been, and will remain, a challenging time for fundraising with planned fundraising events put on hold. Equally, no substsntive progress ha5 yet been made with the fund raising committee and this is an area for particular focus next year. FINANCIAL REVIEW The year on year comparator between this and the preceding Financial Year IFY) is largely unhelpful. Not only is there a difference in duration but, imFM)rtantty, in the preceding year we offered no scholarships and that had an attendant impact on both the associated overheads and our fund raising activities. However, there is one significant figure to note Total Funds - a5 those carried fonKard by the charity have increased over the past year by £112k l£1.332k v £1,220kl. The reason. as shown in the Statement of Financial Actr¥itie5 ISOFA}, is a net gain on investments of £112k. The Trustee5 have tradith)nally aimed to protect the ¢haritVs capital and INe within rfs means by spending no more than the annualty budgeted income. It is also an expedient approach as the harity has limited capacity to manage and place many more than the typical 12 scholarships per year. However. given the disappointments of last year, the Trustees were determined from the outset of the FY, and despite the surrounding financial uncertainties and attendant risk of having to draw upon our reserves. to award at least 12 scholarships. This was though not to be regarded as precedent. In the event. 13 individuals were identrfied as deservin8 of a scholarship. It is gratifying, therefore. to note the more or less exact match of income and expenditure. with a very modest deficit of £82. This Outcome was achieved as a result of the combination of generosity of sponsors and a significant reduction in overheads. The General Manager is to be commended on her close management of the latter. The cancellation of RIAT, in particular. meant that we did not incur the significant overhead associated with the Presentation Ceremony. Additionally. for variou5 practical reasons, not all scholarships were taken up in full. While, we can be well satisfied with the 0￿come of the this FY. it is apparent that our fundraising will have to be far more effectrve in the future if the charity is to remain sustainable at traditional levels of activity. Page 8 ROYAL INTERNATIChYAL AIR TAThOO FLYING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR DISABLED PEOPLE IA cofflpany Iwnlted by 8uaranteel TRUSTEE5' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 INVESTMENT POLICY FSDP'S capital is invested with the Cazenove Charty Multi Asset Fund ICMAFI- The latter meets our objective to have our funds held within an investment vehicle with a diversified strategy involving equities, bonds. property and alternatives assets. Additionally. the CMAF aims to provide income and capital growth in excess of the CPI + 4% (net of fees) over a rolling 10 year period. This allows the Trustees to plan on its investment income return. The CMAF also has a responsible investment approach that operates certain exclusions while ensuring that environmental, social and governance onsiderations apply in all investment decisions. The Trustees are aware that of tts £1.332k funds Some £536k is pernianent endowment and this restricts the use of these funds accordingby. However. FSDP is most fortunate to retain the on-goin8 support and engagement of the benefactors of the permanent endowment. While it remain5 our benefactor5' turrent wish to keep the funds as endowed. they would not, subject to consultation. wish to preclude the applKation of the funds to another use that demonstrably better served the long term interests of the charity- CURRENT ANO FLrruRE PLANS The events of the past few years have taught U5 to be pragmatic. flexible and open to different means of fulfilling the charit￿5 aims. While we hope to return to RAF Cranwell for the final selection process next year. it is apparent that we can, and should, do more to mitigate the physical challenges the domestic accommodation presents candidates. The past year has also demonstrated the need to addTess some disparity in approach. as between the respective ftying school's, in the expectations of scholars and the scope of training. Accordingly, our plans for the next FY include the following.. Further developing the membership of. and range of activity within. The Big Wing,. Identifying and obtaining a range of specialist equipment that can be used to mitigate difficulties encountered by candidates with the domestic accommodation at RAF Cranwell. Revising the teTms and conditions and related documents that determine the charity'5 expectations of the scholarship experience at the ￿spective flying sch¢)ols. Amending the tern)s and conditions relating to scholarships so as to ensure candidates are familiar with. and acknowledge. the attendant obligations. Continuing the delivery of interview training to ensure that all inte￿iewerS are of a consistent standard and we optimise our prospects of selecting the m05t suitable applicants. Mounting a digttal PR campaign so as better to exploit all opportunities to market the charity and reverse the declining number of applications. Tracking and evaluating scholar's outcomes over the longer term. Page 9 ROYAL INTERNATIONAL AIR TATTOO FLYING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR DISABLEO PEOPLE (Acompany limited byKuarantse> TRusfEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 Increasing our fund raising including the creation of a fund raising committee so as to increase the annual number of scholarship award5. Conduct a crisis management exercise involving all Trustees. Conduct a board perfom)an¢e rewew as per the Charity Commission Govemance Code. Furthering relationships Wlth local disabled charit￿5 and specialist equipment providers. Enhancing our governance to accord with the best practice recommended in the Charity Governance Code. Maintaining within the Trustee Board the full complement of skills. experience and capacitv necessary to delNer the charivs objertives. RISK MANAGEMENT FSDP has a risk register that is subjert to annual review. The key risk of the loss of the charl￿S assets is mitigated through the investment poliry referred to above. Other keys risks would arise in the event of there being a major incident invofving a scholar. This risk is mitigated through the selection screening process. which crucially includes medical assessment and in the ca￿fUl choice of flying schools. The latter is the particular responsibility of the Flying Committee, the membership of which has the requisite expertise. OUT safeguarding policy also has a role to play in the protection of both our scholars and the charity- A particularly rigorous review of our insurance cover took place, which emphasised the need to ensure the charity was a named party in each of the contracted flying schoof5 publlc Ilabllity cover. PUBLIC BENEFIT We continue to obtain. notabty through the post scholarship oral and written reports that are required of every scholar, clear evidence that the vast majority of scholars enjoy a considerable boost in their sense of well being as a dirert ￿$￿Il of completinB the scholarship. We also conduct Surveys, based upon the Warwick4dinburgh assessment tCM)l. Ihat measure a stholarfs well being prior to the award of a scholarship, on the completion of the scholarship and then again a minimum of 10 months later. While these quantitative measu￿5 combined with the qualitative commentary offer evidence of a sustained benefit in terms of well-being, confidence and engagement with sttiety- for the majority of scholars, we are minded to do more research on the subject. All of the foregoing constitutes a public benefit. The Trustees have complied wth the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Att 2011. to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission Page 10 ROYAL INTERNATIONAL AIR TA￿00 FLYING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR DISABLED PEOPLE IA ¢omyny limited by guarantee) TRUSfEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 RESERVES POLICY The Trustees maintain the view that the charity should hold a comblnation of 'cash' plus investrnent income sufficient to equate to awarding 10 scholarships plus the a5SOCiated administrative support costs. This currently equates to circa £125k. Current reserves are more than sufficbenL Trustees remain confident in the charitV5 financial viability. STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES.
