THE 10:10 FOUNDATION TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Introduction and objectives

The 10:10 Foundation (operating as Possible) is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) registered with the Charity Commission on 6 June 2014. Registration number 1157363.

The objects of Possible are:

  1. To promote sustainable development for the benefit of the public by the preservation, conservation and protection of the environment and the prudent use of resources; and

  2. To advance the education of the public in subjects relating to sustainable development and the protection, enhancement, and rehabilitation of the environment.

"sustainable development" means "development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs".

Climate change developments

2020 and 2021 saw the pandemic continue to top public concerns, and responses to it dominate political agendas and profoundly reshape economies. And yet, fears that this could eclipse the climate crisis and detract from appetite to tackle it have, thankfully, proven unfounded.

Three main factors have conspired to maintain momentum on climate action even in the teeth of the unprecedented disruption caused by Covid-19. The first is that we have unmistakably entered the age of consequences. The unprecedented “heat dome” over North America and shock flooding in Germany each cost hundreds of lives. Whilst poorer nations more exposed to the direct impacts of increases in extreme weather events have been suffering such incidents for years, the reality that even the world’s wealthiest countries are not immune has at last begun to hit home. Flash flooding on a smaller scale still led to New York and London declaring states of emergency, inundating streets, subways and thousands of expensive properties in some of the richest neighbourhoods in the world. These are the places where global power is concentrated, rudely awakening global elites to the unfolding climate emergency - sometimes in their own homes. Climate now ranks as the

2

THE 10:10 FOUNDATION TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

number two public concern in Germany, and has reached a record high in the UK, with 85% concerned and 52% ‘very concerned’.

The second factor is that the overwhelming and deadly effects of the covid pandemic have exploded the comforting myth of the constancy of the status quo, forcibly reminding us all that the edifice of human civilization is not eternal and unassailable but contingent and vulnerable. This puts a very new complexion on the climate threat for those in the west who have been accustomed to comfort and stability.

The third factor is the scale and pace of change to our economies and ways of life wrought by the pandemic itself, as well as the rediscovery of political horizons that had long been concealed from view by the ‘end of history’ narrative. Massive state intervention in economies in response to crisis is no longer merely a historical or hypothetical possibility, it is now an ongoing lived experience almost everywhere in the world, impossible to repudiate.

Meanwhile, behaviours and activities we had taken for granted as essential and impossible to change - like frequent international business travel - turn out to be things we can, for the most part, easily live without; analysts predict business flights will never recover to pre-pandemic levels. Patterns of work, leisure and consumption have all been transfigured, rendering past projections of future demand for travel and energy obsolete.

This turbulence has unfrozen the old certainties that governed our lives, and opened a window to change - which Possible is helping more and more people to climb through.

In the UK, keeping climate in focus has also been helped by the rescheduling of the COP26 UN climate summit, which will take place in this new, alien political and social landscape the pandemic has landed us in.

Our vision, mission, and theory of change

Our vision

A zero-carbon society built by and for the people of the UK.

Our mission

Inspiring people in the UK to take the action the climate crisis demands.

Our theory of change

At Possible, we know we need to tackle climate change, and we need to move fast.

The sheer scale of action required means it will touch everyone’s lives. If we are going to move at the speed required - and if we are going to ensure the new world we build is a fair one - people and communities have to be involved. Politicians, corporations, and other established institutions will have to play a key role too, but they will only move fast enough once they know their constituents and customers are on board.

The climate movement must be a mass movement, or it simply won’t achieve its aims. For that to happen:

To get help us all get there, Possible works to be:

Structure, governance, and management

The 10:10 Foundation, operating as Possible, is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO)and its governing document is its constitution and the only voting members are the trustees.

The Board of Trustees meets quarterly, as does its Finance and Fundraising Committee which scrutinises these areas and makes recommendations to the Board.

The trustees have delegated the day to day management of the CIO to a senior management team consisting of four directors, one of whom is nominated to be the lead director for a limited period.

Our team

The team behind Possible includes a small but highly dedicated and skilled group of campaigners, fundraisers, operational staff and communications professionals.

We are run by a team of directors rather than one single CEO, and we’re committed to reducing hierarchy wherever possible. Our campaign development process is designed so everyone can pitch an idea for a project and work with others to develop it into a fully formed plan. Mirroring our approach to action on climate change, we know the best ideas do not just come from the top down.

We are committed to our organisational culture, treating it as a project we work continuously on alongside all of our other work. Staff benefits such as flexible working policies and paid volunteering leave are designed to attract the sort of creative, committed people we need for a mission-led organisation but also ensure they will not get burnt out.

We are proud to be a London living wage employer and are committed to removing barriers to work in environmental charities wherever possible.

Covid-19 impact

The COVID-19 pandemic continued to affect our work despite some relaxation in lockdown restrictions in the latter part of the year. We took the appropriate measures to mitigate the effects of COVID-19, such as social distancing, working from home and using digital solutions where appropriate to continue our activities.

5

THE 10:10 FOUNDATION TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Self-isolation and lockdown led to planned volunteer and community activities being cancelled or postponed. While supporter events and meetings are an important element of our delivery strategy, they make up a small proportion of our income and increasing use of digital media and applications helped to fill the gaps that the cessation of physical gatherings has left.

Looking ahead as vaccination rates increase and restrictions are lifted, we are working towards a phased return to the office. We will continue to follow government policies and advice and, in parallel, we will do our utmost to continue our operations in the best and safest way possible without jeopardising the health of our staff. Financial viability and sustainability remain a key focus for trustees and management.

Review of our work in 2020/21

Possible’s work is divided into five key challenges:

Under each challenge we run more specific ‘missions’ which bring the issue to life and provide different ways the UK public can contribute to change. The beginning of our 20/21 financial year took place in the context of ongoing significant social and economic disruption due to the coronavirus pandemic, meaning much of our work could not proceed as originally planned - either in substance, timing, or both. Wherever possible we pivoted our plans to respond to opportunities or challenges presented by unfolding events.

THE 10:10 FOUNDATION TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Financial review

Income for the year was £871,498 (2020: £1,485,361) significantly lower compared to the previous year due to a decrease in unrestricted income and lower restricted income as a result of timing differences. Income for 2019/20 included grants of £630,000 relating to the Car Free Cities campaigns which began in the current period.

Expenditure for the year increased by 44% to £1,096,207 (2020: £763,018) reflecting an increase in headcount and direct expenditure as we started delivery of two major campaigns to end car dominance in towns and cities. Expenditure for the year includes costs of £35,654 incurred to develop our digital mobilisation and antioppression strategy.

The deficit on Unrestricted Funds for the year was £91,220 reflecting lower income and a provision for irrecoverable debts of £28,482. Unrestricted reserves ended the year at £149,971 and were within our reserves policy. The reserves policy aims to maintain reserves within a range of 4-8 months of unrestricted expenditure.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The Trustees have identified the principal risks and uncertainties to which the charity is exposed. They are monitored by the Management Team under the headings of: Strategic objectives, Sustainability, Compliance, and Reputation. These are reported twice a year at board meetings, along with any operational risks that have occurred in that time, and corrective action agreed.

Given the context within which Possible works, the principal risks are:

COVID -19: Possible continued to take the necessary measures to mitigate the immediate risks of Covid-19 and the situation continues to be monitored. Plans are in place to transition back to the office and normal operations as the restrictions are lifted.

Lack of regular donations: The charity aims to maintain unrestricted reserves sufficient to cover at least four months of unrestricted expenses. Annual budgets are set within a longer-term financial model to ensure that plans are sustainable. Management accounts and a pipeline of future funding are reviewed quarterly by the Finance & Fundraising Committee prior to each board meeting.

12

THE 10:10 FOUNDATION TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Impact of our work: The nature of our work on climate change makes it inherently difficult to quantify the impact of our work. Each project is measured against agreed strategic objectives within an overall strategic plan and progress reports are made to each board meeting as well as to donors.

Outlook for 21/22

We will continue to deliver our two major multiyear campaigns for Car Free Cities. With Covid restriction lifting we will relaunch our projects on hedge and tree planting, Climate Perks and begin work on our three-year partnership with the Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST), helping design and test successful strategies for behaviour change in line with keeping to below 1.5º C global warming.

Alongside our confirmed work, we will develop proposals and seek funding to deliver further projects in line with our strategic challenges, in particular relating to onshore wind, domestic heat decarbonisation and intercity transport.

We will also be seeking further investment in our joint venture with Riding Sunbeams to manage and commercialise the innovations developed to allow energy from solar arrays to be fed directly into electrified railways.

Organisational growth and development

A major delivery in 2021/22 will be the development of our new three year strategy with input from our whole staff team, our key partners and the board of trustees.

Over the past year our staff team has doubled in size and we have invested in operations expertise and capacity to support this growth. We will continue to invest in our people and infrastructure to ensure that this growth is sustainable and our staff team well supported. We will implement our anti-oppression strategy which we developed in the last year to ensure we are a truly anti-oppressive organisation that is welcoming and supportive of demographics under-represented in the environmental sector, and those most likely to suffer environmental and social injustice.

Trustees and their responsibilities

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with 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).

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales 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 charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

Independent auditor’s report to the trustees of 10:10 Foundation CIO

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of 10:10 Foundation (CIO) for the year ended 30 June 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. 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 Auditorʼs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRCʼs 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 charity'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.

16

Independent auditor’s report to the trustees of 10:10 Foundation CIO

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors 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 annual report other than the financial statements and our auditorʼs 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.

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 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

17

Independent auditor’s report to the trustees of 10:10 Foundation CIO

Responsibilities of the trustees

As explained more fully in the trusteesʼ responsibilities statement, the trustees 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 they 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 Charity’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 Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

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 auditorʼs 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below.

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Councilʼs website at:

www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditorʼs report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity’s trustees 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 Charity and the Charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

The 10:10 Foundation Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2021

1 Accounting policies

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 - effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP FRS 102).

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following Charities SORP FRS 102 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 (SORP 2005) which has since been withdrawn.

The charity 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 or note.

b) Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 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 amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

c) Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that 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. Income received in advance for the provision of specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

d) Donatio

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation 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), volunteer time is not recognised.

On receipt, donated gifts, 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:

The 10:10 Foundation Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 June 2021

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Costs of raising funds comprise of trading costs and the costs incurred by the charity in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose.

Expenditure on charitable activities includes activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.

Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.

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

h) Allocation of support costs

i) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

j) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £1,000. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

Fixtures 25%
Computer 25%

k) Unlisted investments

Investments in community energy companies and in Riding Sunbeams Apollo Ltd are held as part of the charity's charitable activities. They are valued at their cost price which is not considered to be materially different from their fair value at the year end.

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

The charity makes contributions to the personal pension schemes of employees based on a percentage of salary.

q) Investm

Investments in joint ventures and associated companies are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses in the Company’s balance sheet. On disposal of investments in joint ventures and associated companies, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment is taken to the income statement.
