OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITES
Objectives and aims
The charity’s purpose as set out in the objects contained in the company’s Articles of Association are:
“To advance the education of the public in the conservation, protection and improvement of the physical and natural environment, in particular the conservation and protection of rare and endangered species, and to promote human behaviour towards animals by providing appropriate care, protection, treatment and security for animals which are in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage and to educate the public in matters pertaining to animal welfare in general and the prevention of cruelty and suffering among such animals.”
Public benefit
The charity provides public benefit by educating people about the conservation and protection of rare and endangered species. Many of the animals at the Haven are considered threatened species in the wild. Deforestation and intensive cultivation is contributing to the destruction of their habitats, and, as a sanctuary dedicated to the health and welfare of captive animals, it is the charity’s obligation to promote environmental awareness to protect and preserve their wild counterparts.
The charity promotes the following green initiatives that have been implemented around the park: - All timber used in the construction of the Haven has been sourced from sustainable forests.
-
Cedar shingles on the roofs of heated buildings have superior thermal insulation properties to limit energy loss.
-
The mulch substrate in the play areas are made from 100% recycled aircraft tyres.
-
To promote waste recycling, the Haven works with multiple national supermarkets that provide produce that by law is no longer suitable for human consumption but this food is perfectly edible and ideal for primates’ diets.
-
Fresh fruit and vegetables are grown on-site and contribute to the primates’ diets.
-
Water butts are found throughout the Haven and the rainwater collected is used to sustain the vegetable patches and decorative plant-life.
-
All cardboard waste is taken to a recycling depot on the Isle of Wight.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Since 7 August 2013 the charity has operated The Monkey Haven in the Isle of Wight, which is a rescue centre and sanctuary for the primates and birds of prey rescued from the illegal pet trade, who are in desperate need of care and attention. The animals housed at the Haven have come for various reasons; they may have been bullied within their original groups, or unsuitable for breeding programmes, or are injured native birds that would be unable to fend for themselves in the wild. These animals are given another chance to live enriched carefree lives in the relaxed, spacious and tranquil environment of The Monkey Haven.
As well as attendance income, supporters can adopt one of the animals. The adoption income contributes towards the animals’ daily care and all proceeds go towards their food, enrichment and vet bills. The general public can donate a treat to the animals by sending a text message or sponsor an enclosure, as well as using our Amazon wish list. This allows the charity to help focus its funding on rescuing more unwanted primates and birds of prey.

DEVELOPMENTS
The charity is currently in the process of constructing its biggest project to date. This is a new enclosure, which will be 34 metres by 15 metres by 5 metres high.
It will feature two huge primate enclosures and an internal public viewing walkway. It will also have a solar panel glass roof and electrical vehicle charge points on the back of the building.
The facility is open and the capuchin family has moved in. The solar panels are operational and it is self-sufficient in terms of power.

are managed by Mr D Walser. The overall operations are run by Mr D Wickes. Decisions are made by unanimous agreement of the trustees. New trustees are appointed by invitation only.
Share Capital
The company is limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES
The trustees (who are also the directors of The Leaf Foundation for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual 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 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 these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
ꞏ select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
ꞏ observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
ꞏ make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
ꞏ state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
ꞏ prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The trustees 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 LEAF FOUNDATION
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE LEAF FOUNDATION
YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2025
I report on the financial statements of the charitable company on pages 7 to 14 for the year ended 30 November 2025 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and with the Financial Reporting Standard (FRS 102 SORP), under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 10.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND INDEPENDENT EXAMINER
The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination .
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view'.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:
-
proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006); and
-
accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
