CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND AND WALES Trustees, Annual Report and Financial Statements for the period From 06 April 2024 Period stsrt date To 05 April 2025 Period end date Charity name: Tigers4Ever Charity registration number: 1160528 Ob"ectives and Activities Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document 1 . To promote the preservation of the tiger species in its natural habitat, its value to the forest and eco-systems, and its protection from extinction for the benefit of the environment and public. 2. To assist in the relief of poverty, sickness and in the advanment of education in the Bandhavgarh district of Madhya Pradesh, and in other rural and forest communities in India. To Give Wild Tigers a Wild Future: our ultimate goal is to prevent the extinction of wild tigers. Summary of the main activities in relation lo those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or serrfices identified in the accounts. India is home to over 75 % of the global wild tiger population; so it is vital that we eliminate wild tiger deaths due to poaching and retaliatory poisonings to ensure that wild tigers will be around for future generations. We achieve this by: Providing Anti-PoaGhing Patrols and equipping them so that they can keep wild tigers safe from poachers, snares and traps. Working with the communities who liv6 With wild tigers to ensure they have 8 vested interest in wild tiger survival. Educaling future generations so they know the value of an apex predator and its habitat to the ecology and sustainability of the landscape. Providing safety advice to ensure that people living with wild tigers keep themselves, their families and livestock safe. Reducing human-animal conflict to help stabilise both prey and predator numbers through the provision of sustainable environmentally focused permanent wildlife waterhole solutions, the installation of solar-powered lighting at high risk foresl entry points, and schemes to restore lost habitat. In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2}'.

This could indude making grants, for example to other charities with similar objectives to meet our aims. Trustees made no rants to other bodies durin 2024-25. Tigers4Ever is entirely staffed by volunteers in the UK, who give their time and expertise freely. In addition, Tigers4Ever has two appointed volunteer full-tijme re resentatives in India who co-ordiriate Conlribution made by volunteers
activities at ground level in accordance with the instructions of the Tigers4Ever Board of Trustees. Tigers4Ever also has three appointed volunteer patrons, who donate their time and expertise to assist our fundraising activities. Tigers4Ever has also relied on assistance from UK based volunteers for fundraising. marketing and graphic design activities", and volunteers in India for distribution of educational resources and future ro ect communit research activities. Tigers4Ever holds reserves to ensure that it can meet its future financial obli ations. The economic impact of the global cost of living crisis has affeded and influenced the activities of Tigers4Ever throughout the whole of the financial year, both from a fundraising and project delivery perspective. Brief statement of the charit olic on reser+ies Other We identified at our Board of Trustees meeting in April 2021 that the economic impact of the pandemic in India was likely to prolong the increased risk of human-wildlife conflict and poaching activities for more than one year. The reality of this risk continued throughout the period between 2022 and 2024-25 and was felt in both the forest and villages where we work in India. The increased number of wild tigers coupled with intense pressures on fragile habitat has also led to more poaching of migrating tigers and more human-wildlife conflict. We decided not to resume face to face fundraising activities with individual donors during the financial year 2024-2025, instead focussing our efforts on our digital, grant and corporate fundraising activities, whilst our primary project focus was on anti-poaching patrols, forest safety education and our projects to mitigate the risks of human-wildlife conflict. We changed our activities to focus on what we could deliver throughout the post pandemic era and the challenge of the cost-of-living crisis prior to the 2024-25 financial year. We considered the possible effects of this on the charity and updated our Risk Register accordingly. The Trustees are confident that the Charity has adequate resources to conlinue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concem basis in preparing the financial statements. Achievements and Performance Summary of the main We planned to maintain our anti-poaching patrols at 2900/0 of pre- achievements of the charity, pandemic levels and increase the area covered by our patrols to include identifying the differen the known migration routes through fragmented forest at the far borders of charity's work has made to the Bandhavgarh. The increased risk of poaching and human-wildlife conflict circumstances of its meant that we completed patrolling in 2024-25 at the maximum level beneficiaries and any wider achievable with current logistical resources and will continue to maintain benefits to society as a whole. these levels whilst funding allows. In this period our patrolling range also increase to accommodate more than 150 sq.Km of fragmented forest bordering Bandhavgarh National Park. There has been a significant increase in tiger poaching and human- wildlife conflict across India, in each of the last 5 years. There are several contributory factors driving this including unemployment. more people in rural locations. the economic impact of the cost-of-living crisis and an increased demand for wildlife body parts in China and the far east. Many rural people continue to be dependent on plundering scarce forest resources for food and products to sell for survival due to these impacts. The risk of wild tiger deaths due to poaching and human-wildlife conflict increased as a result so a ain we focussed our fundraisin efforts to
maintain our patrolling at quadrupled levels (compared to pre-pandemic levels). Despite our increased patrolling, poachers struck during the third quarter of 2024 killing two adult tigers and poisoning 13 wild elephants, 10 of which died. Poachers also snared 5 sub-adult tigers who had migrated outside the protected area of Bandhavgarh to seek new territories in Sanjay Dubri National Park. Without additional resources and funding, it is currently impossible to further expand the range of our current patrolling (which includes the additional 118 sq km) to include other areas outside the core, buffer and fragmented forest. Such incidents highlight the need for protected wildlife corridors to link more than one tiger reserrfe, however, the burgeoning human population and political landscapes make such projects more challenging than just planting trees and increasing the patrolling area. It is an area we tried to address in 2024-25, but in absence of the political green light and project funding, our current focus is on restoring lost habitat within the confines of the existing forest boundaries. Forest Rehabilitation and Tree-Planting initiatives are due to commence in 2025-26. On a more positive note, more than 60 tiger cubs were born during the 2024-25 financial year bringing the total number of tigers protected by our patrols to more than quintuple the number when Tigers4Ever was established in June 2010. The increased number of wild tigers brings further challenges to our susS with an increase in tiger- tiger conflict which resulted in the deaths of 19 tigers (4 adults, 12 sub- adults and 3 cubs) during 2024-25. This increase in tiger-tiger conflict heightens the need for both habitat restoration and habitat expansion projects as tiger numbers will continue to increase due to an increase in the number of breeding age tigers. Bandhavgarh was home to 5 species of vulture prior lo 2009, but the use of diclofenac to treat TB in domestic cattle and the retaliatory poisoning of domestic livestock to kill predators including tigers and leopards had wiped out the entire vulture population of 185 by 2010. Our anti-poaching methods have eliminated tiger deaths due to retaliatory poisoning sin 2015 and this has resulted in a slow but measured recover in the vulture population. All five species of vulture can now be found in Bandhavgarh and the 2024-25 census revealed tolal numbers lo sland at 210 with annual population increases of 200/0 being obsenjed in each of the last 2 years. Wild elephants continue to cause problems in Bandhavgarh via destruction of property, equipment and crops. They also attacked ten Tigers4Ever solar-powered borewell waterhole sites leaving thousands of pounds of damage behind. We carried out repairs and replaced damaged solar panels at eleven Tigers4Ever waterholes (including three siles damage in 2023-24) during 2024-25 to address wild elephant damage and will complete work to repair the damage at the remaining three sites damaged in 2024-2025 during the 2025-2026 financial year. In December 2024, we installed 35 solar-powered streetlights at key foresl entry points in 35 high risk villages for human-wildlife conflict. This was to reduce the risk of nightly crop raids by wild elephants. nightly livestock predation by tigers and leopards; and the loss of human life which had increased 4-fold across the year. This followed the success of the initial 20 solar-powered street lights installed in March 2024 which had eliminated wildlife nocturnal attacks for 8 months, The earfy indication from this initiative (55 locations) is that the lighting is an effective deterrent a ainst nocturnal wildlife inlrusion, althou h further
monitoring is still ongoing. We have been asked to provide solar- powered street lighting at a further high priority locations, however, reserves are depleled, and further funds will need to be raised to enable us to complete this work in 2025-26. In March 2024, we also started drilling for the installation of a borewell pump system to provide year- round water for wildlife in the Dhamokhar Buffer zone including a major new waterhole at the Bhainsmooda site, an area devoid of natural water SoUrS bringing the total number of Tigers4Ever permanent wildlife waterholes to twenty. Work at the Bhainsmooda waterhole site was completed in the 2024-25 financial year, including remedial works to dam wall which burst during monsoon rains and flooding in July 2024. Subsequent solar-powered borewells to provide year-round water for wildlife was completed at five further locations.. Pachpedi, Murdhawa, Bathan, Garha Wah and Takhti were completed in 2024-25 bring the number of Tigers4Ever waterholes to 25. By providing permanent wildlife water at these twenty-five locations, we help to reduce human-wildlife conflict in the surrounding areas. Work will complete on the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh Tigers4Ever waterholes during the 2025-2026 financial year. All new Tigers4Ever waterholes are built with elephant proof measures appropriate to the location, and work is underway to elephant proof the solar slruclures and pump systems at our existing waterholes, where this hasn't been done at the time of repair. During 2024-25, we increased our education project support of the rural communities around Bandhavgarh via the delivery of forest safety education talks and putting up replacement safety education banners in some of the original 105 villages, where weather and other conditions had damaged the originals. We were unable to resurrect the pop-up schools during 2024-25 due to the continued shortage of volunteer teachers. In September 2024 we worked with local NGO Global Tiger Conservation Society (GTCS) in Bandhavgarh to deliver educational resources in the form of 100 education packs for children in the poorest villages. We also worked with the wider tiger community in Bandhavgarh throughout the year to devise practical and workable solutions to help alleviate the impact of hurnan-wildlife conflict including advice on the construction of elephant-proof solutions (chilli pepper fencing, beehive fencing, elephant proof moats, pillars for solar mounts, etc.) which also provides much needed income and foodstuffs for the rural community, and the use of lemon grass as an elephant deterrent for the villages where the fencing oplions were unsuitable. Most patrolling equipment had worn out by the end of the pandemic and the post pandemic economic crisis led to an urgent need for replament clothing and kit. Colder winters meant that the warm winter jackets which had been provided previously were inadequate when temperatures plummel towards O°C (32F) overnight and for the early moming patrols. Thus, thicker warmer jackets were nded to combat the unusually low temperatures. During 2022-23 we initiated a new project to repla and renew the dilapidated equipment and clothing for over 1000 anti- poaching patrollers. Between April 2024 and March 2025, we equipped 315 patrollers with a full uniform and sturdy boots. In addition, we provided 200 high-powered waterproof flashlights and 100 wami winter jackets during the same period. We plan to continue the programme to repla and renew worn out or inadequate equipment and dothing durin 2025-26.
We used local suppliers to supply the clothing and equipment for anti- poaching patrollers, food for our anti-poaching patrols. safety education banners and training materials, solar-powered streetlights, labour and equipment for our waterholes, which provided much needed employment and support for a community decimated by the economic impact of the pandemic and cost of living crisis. The examples above show how we have continued to protect the wild tiger in its natural habitat, whilst workn'ng with the wider tiger community in times of extreme hardship. We assisted with the relief of extreme poverty with the provision of hardship assistan. and in the alleviation of sickness and injury by providing nutritious food and safe clean drinking water for our anti-poaching patrols together with vital equipment to prevent fatal snake bites (snake capture kit, knee length waterproof boots and waterproof clothing which is impervious to mosquito bites, leeches, and snakes. Powerful waterproof flashlights protect lone patrollers in remote patrolling camps from sudden attacks by wild animals and hel to deter oachin activit Addltional Infomiation (optional) You ma choose to include further statements where relevant about: Achievements against • We review our specific core project outcome objectives annually for a objectives set three-year period within the Chanty's Funding Strategy and 3-year strategic plan, On 12 October 2024, the trustees met for a strategy day away day following which we decided to keep to a 3-year strategic plan with quarterly monitoring to ensure that our strategies are aligned with rapidly changing needs and environments. The Board of Trustees formally approved this process on 12 January 2025. • Trustees link fundraising targets required to meet the core objectives, project needs and also identify targets by source of funding. Targets are dynamic and are influenced by national and international economic conditions, trends in tiger poaching and trade, increased risks, and the environment on the ground in our operating area in India. • Projects are dependent on the necessary funding having been raised,, the implication of this 'golden rule, means that the charity does not have known commitments which cannot be met from resources already raised. Where necessary project start dates are delayed or modified to ensure adequate funding is in pla lo enable Tigers4Ever to meet its financial and project obligations. • Trustees regularly review project and financial performance against tsrgets so that both fundraising and project impact is maximised. As shown above, we adapted our anti-poaching patrols delivery to meet the increased need due to an amplified risk of poaching and human encroachment into wild liger terrilory so that we patrolled at 290 % of our pre-pandemic levels. By doing this we were able to eliminate wild tiger deaths due to poaching and retaliatory poisoning throughout the year (save for the five poaching incidents highlighted above which occurred outside our patrolling area and two incidents within it). In the same period 60 new tiger cubs were born. We intended to install at least one new permanent wildlife waterhole in 2024-25 to provide water for at least eight wild tigers and countless other wild animals, however, wild elephant damage at ten of our existing waterhole sites meant that we had to prioritise repairs over new construction during the year. We were however, able to complete work on a new lar e waterhole in the Dhamokhar Buffer Zone and the five
other locations highlighted above. We used local labour and installation expertise for waterhole repairs, new waterhole construction and elephant proofing the solar pump system. Over 130 wild tigers and countless other wild animals depend on the Tigers4Ever waterholes throughout the drought period (which is getting longer each year).. from the end of January - to the beginning of July annually. We were able to raise sufficient funds to address this need via our regular donations. We discovered that more patrollers in remote patrolling camps continue to live in challenging conditions with worn out and inadequate equipment and clothing and thus raised funds for and provided essential clothing and equipment as outlined above. This will reduce both the health risks for the patrollers (malaria and other fevers) and the risk of injury or death from snakebites and nighttime wild animal attacks at the patrolling camps. We had a target to provide forest safety education in 105 rural villages around Bandhavgarh from Late August 2023 to the financial year end, however, we were unable to recruit sufficient local volunteers in India to deliver the safety talks, so our anti-poaching patrollers took on this task alongside their patrolling duties and completed training in 86 villages by April 2024.Safety Education talks were delivered by Tigers4Ever patrollers at the remaining 19 villages during 2024-2025. The popup nature schools which we had previously delivered in conjunction with GTCS (a local NGO in Bandhavgarh) were unable to restart due to a lack of volunteer teachers making delivery impossible. We continued discussions with the Forest Department in Madhya Pradesh, including th8 Principal Chief Conservator of Forests in Bhopal, to deliver a forest rehabilitation project to plant trees and other vegetation to aid the recovery of the forest after several years, devastation due to forest fires and illegal logging. The objective of this exercise will be to reduce human-wildlife conflict, tiger-tiger Gonflict and to alleviate some of the impacts of climate change- in particular water evaporation due to lack of canopy and soil degradation. Discussions for this initiative were still ongoing throughout the financial year and due to staff changes at senior levels in Ihe forest department had nol concluded at the year end. We have the green light to progress this project in 2025- 26 subject to raising appropriate funding. Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set To fund our strategic objectives for 2024-25 we needed to raise at least £60,000 to cover our baseline project costs without using reserves. We actually raised £40,867 during the 2024-25 financial year, which was 680/0 of our initial annual target but were able to manage the additional costs associated with the increased anti-poaching patrols, which were critical to address the elevated risk of wild tiger deaths" waterhole repairs., start work at one new waterholes; install solar-powered street lighting at 35 high risk locations; and 100 % of target for our education project, due to favourable forex rates {UK£ to INR) in 2024-25 and the availability of project reserves. In addition, we raised funds for the patrolling equipment, sturdy boots, warm winter jackets, and uniforms above what we had targeted for the financial year.

inancial Review eview of the charity's financial osition at the end of the period • Tigers4Ever is a cash-based organisation. We operate on a reiptS and payments account basis and as such our financial statements do not include estimates. • We transfer risk, for example to suppliers of merchandise,. we ensure that ownership and future maintenance of assets such as waterholes rests with Indian authorities; we do not commit to expenditure until the necessary income has been collected to cover known costs. Consequently, our only material asset is the cash held in our current account; we are not committed to any known material future payments for which we have not already raised funding. • The financial position at 5 April 2025, including movements on the various funds. is shown in the table below. • We have sufficient funds to meet known costs; we expect to meet our administrative costs beyond the forthcoming year. Of our principal current projects, we have sufficient funds to complete at least two more waterholes in 2025-26" we have sufficient funds to continue an enhanced anti-poaching patrol programme in 2025-26. • We also have sufficient funds to provide treated mosquito nets for at least 600 anti-poaching patrollers. and to continue our initiative to rove forest safet and reduce human-wildlife conflict in 2025-26. • We hold reserrfes only to fulfil our obligations. • Although we operate only one bank account, we maintain reserved funds for our major projects, so that there is transparency for donors and clarity in income and expenditure for trustees. This approach also reflects the policy of our major fundraising platfom which enables fundraising only for clearly defined projects. • We operate an unreserved fund., we have identified minimal administration costs (including insurance and ITlcommunications). If we did not have funds to meet these costs, the charity would cease to operate. During the year trustees committed to explore the benefits of an interest-bearin de osit account.

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the appropriate Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Basis of independent examiner's report
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 members of the Charity concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken 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 fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
(1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
(2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
(3) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
