2024 plans
A key objective for the Foundation continues to be future proofing the long-term support
and development of SEN schools/group5 and individuals, particularly those schools that we
are already supporting who have committed their teacher, curriculum and transport ti me
and costs or thei r students. Each year these schools have a whole new year group of
additional needs students. so there is a continuous flow of students who have never had
this opportunity. It is so important we can continue to support the physical, emotional, and
menta I wellbeing of SEN students through this unique mea ningful activity, not currently
offered by a ny loca I services or other com munity-based organisations.
To make this happen in the most effective way, we are working with a freelance bid writer
who has set up an ongoi ng process of identifying relevant funders who fund in our sector.
This wil I provide a great foundation for the bid writer to pull together suc cessful bid
documents to help us achieve our financial targets.
SSF will conti nue to offer funding for individual lessons where a prospective student does
not attend one of the partner Schools or where they are above school age. The charity will
continuously research other SEN educational estsblishments for primary, seconda ry and
college students.
We are continuing to apply for f unding for the other schools and colleges. Ideal ly, we would
like to raise further f unds to provide=

Impact statements
Below is a selection of feedback from the students, including adult a nd young carers,
individuals, a nd schools=
Case study - One of our pupils who receives
Tier 3 support Ithe highest level of support
offered at The Rise) attended skiing over the
past year. This pupil often struggles to go out
on class trips as he fi nds the experience too
overwhelming. He has needed to be always
supported by two members of staff on his
social learni ng trips offsite.
Once he was supported to try skiing, he
absolutely fell in love with it. He has attended
al I the lessons offered a nd was able to
manage his emotions well enough to take
part in the lessons with conf idence. Skii ng
has given him the incentive to work hard on
his safe behaviours in school, as he knew
there was ski ing which he was looki ng
forward to each week. It was fantastic to be
able to see him engaging with the ski
instructors, as he often struggles Wlth new
people.
We were incredibly proud when he
transitioned to the big slope and was able to do this independently. It is a huge achievement
for this young ma n, and we look forward to him attending lessons again this year to further
develop his skiing and social development.
Below is a selection of further feedback..
'It's been so good for me,. it's given me a purpose outside of the home and I laughed l ike I
haven't for a long time thank you.
'1 loved the course,. it was a great idea. Carers have difficult, busy, complicated lives so it
was hel pful to have the chance to do something during the day and learn a new life skill, it is
something I have always wanted to do."
"Goi ng to the top on the small slope, making new friends."
.1 learnt to put on my jacket a nd trousers by myself which felt good."
'1 enjoyed the competitions that were set and was pleased I was able to ski and do a
snowplough."

'At first, I found the travellator scary, but I learnt
how to do it independently."
"This funding conti nues to impact our pupils
positively. Not only the enjoyment and progression
you see during the session, but the motivation
pupils receive to communicate, access the
community, and engage in an activity that has a
positive effect on their health and well-being. We
are extremely fortunate to be in the position to do
this and we thank you."
"Getti ng the control and confidence.
'Nan expressed that she would like to say thank
you to the team and said that when she attended
skiing with (young carersl last week, she could see
"such a difference in his confidence" and that he
has "loved every minute of it" Nan said that the
activity has been 'perfect and exactly what he needs at the moment."
'It was fantastic I I had not realised how much I needed the break from caring until I started
this course. It was nice to use my bra in to lea rn Something new a nd think about something
other than my son. After each session I felt energised and much more optimistic about the
future. l also made new friends. Sadly, four sessions were not enough,. six would have been
better as it took me a long time to get over my fears.,
.1 enjoyed skiing i nside, outdoors would be too much but inside it felt safe enough, and I
could ta ke a break to get wa rm if I needed.

A small reserve of £5,000 is held i n the charity's bank account as the charity has no

al location.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Snow Sports
Foundation
I report on my examination of the accounts of The Snow Sports Foundation (the
Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2023.
This report is made solely to the Charitvs trustees, as a body, in accordance with the Charities
Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Cha ritys trustees those
matters l am required to state to them in an independent exa mi ner's report and for no other
purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to
anyone other than the Charity and the Charitys trustees as a body, for any work, for this
report, or for the opi nions I have formed.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the fi nancia I statements
in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 20111"the ACY'I. You consider that
an audit is not required for the year under section 144121 of the Act and that an independent
examination is needed.
It is my responsi bility to..
examine the fi nancia I statements under section 145 of the Act,.
follow the procedures laid down in general Directions given by the Charity
Commission under section 144121 of the Act,. and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the
Charity Commission. An exa mination i ncludes a review of the accounting records kept by the
Charity and a comparison of the fi na ncia I statements presented with those records. It also
includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements and
seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures
undertsken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and
consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fa ir view.
and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination no matter has come to my attention-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the
requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act,. and to
prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records a nd comply with the
accounting requi rements of the Act have not been met, or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Independent Examination of Charity Accounts.. Examiner5, Guide ICC321.. An independent examiner wa5 described in
section 145llllal of the 2011 Act as 'an independent person who is reasonably believed by the charity trustees to have the
requisite ability and practical experience to carry out a cotnpetent examination of the accounts. For financial years ending
on or after 31 March 2015, once a charitvs gross income exceeds £250,000, the examiner must be a person who is a
member of one of the lyJdiÈs listed in the 2011 Acr, as amended by the 2015 Order, and should be allowed by the rules of
that body to undertake the role of independent examiner.
As the Charitie5 Income does not extred £250,OW the independent examiner does not need to be a tnember of one of the
bodies listed in the 2011 Act.
