The information provided by the Kwf assists the Trustees in assessing the performance of grants to date and in considering the extension. cessation or suspension of existing grant approvals. Vvhilst on one hand placing reliance on the Kwf's framework, the CIO seeks always to retain its Independen over where its monies might be granted. to the W or elsewhere, where it can contribute for the public benefit and meet its objectives. Additionally, some of the Trustees usually visit one or more of the projects which the CIO is supporting and meet with key project directors, annualty, as well as having regular contact face to face with the W in Nairobi. The Trustees also encourage project directors of projects that the CIO Is supporting and the directors and staff of the Kwf to make contact when they are in the UK and to meet with the Trustees. sin the COVID restrictions have been lifted in both UK and Kenya, all the Trustees have vlsited Kenya at least ce both making contad and meeting with Kwf and visiting the MPCP and have been updated by the current team.

KENYA WILDLIFE TRUST UK a Charitable Incorporat Oryanisatlon Annual Report and Finan¢lal Statements, 2023 Wildlife Tru K- histo and back round of the Cha The Kwf was established in 2007 by leaders in the Kenyan safari industry led by guides from the original Ker and Downey Safaris, with the principle aim of strengthening the connection beiw8en conservation and tourism. In 2013, the W moved into project implementation with the establishment of the flagship lion and cheetah montioring projects in the Maasai Mara, now consolidated as the Mara Predator ConseDiation Programme. The Kwf is dedicated to protecting Kenya's predators through a network of high-impact conservation Initiatives in the most important ecosystems for wildlife-based tourism.. the Greater Mara, Laikipia I Samburu and Amboseli l Tsavo. The Kw's key objective is to achieve measurable predator population increases in these ecosystems to their potential carrying capacity then ensuring thos8 figur8S Stabilise. A further goal is to work with and support community projects which reinforce predator conservatlon, whilst providing a primary healthcare seprfice to isolated populations and supporting higher education which will ensure the future conservation of Kenya's wildlife. In 2012, a conventional Charitab trust was fomed under UK Law by British supporters and registered with the Charity Commission. However, rt soon became apparent that, in order to attracl significant donors and donations in the UK, which in turn would enable a greater contribution to some of the projeds in Kenya and enhance our allian wilh the KWT, It needed higher profile trustees with speGific skills, prepared to serve on the board. The Trustees dbd not believe this to be possible whilst continuing with that structure and therefore set about a restructure wrth the help of the Charity Commission. It was ¢oncluded that a then relativety new charrtable structure called a CIO, would be the most suitable successor body and The Friends of Kenya Wildlife Trust UK was fomed, as a CIO, on 29th June, 2015 and registered with the Charity Commission on 22nd July, 2015. The Trustees then wound down the Orinal trust and transferred it's funds to the CIO. Subsequent to this, the CIO changed its nam8 on 8th February, 2021 to Kenya Wildlife Trust UK. The CIO and the Kwf share similar charitable objeGtives, vision, mission and values. The CIO aims to, but doe8 not exclusivety, make substantial grants of our own by way of funding to projécts that the Kwf supports. Page-9-
KENYA WILDLIFE TRUST UK Charltsble Incorporated Organi8ation Annual Report and Financial Ststements, 2023 orl of e Trustees 5.1 Dr Mark Slane Prlce It is with great sadness that we report that Mark passed away at his home in Oxford on 13th December, 2022. He had been Chairman since the inception of the charty. A remarkable conservation scientist with 40 years of expernce working in Africa and West Asia, Mark's professional achievements were many and we won't restate them here since the many obltuarie8 available on the internet cannot be surpassed with repetition. Mark was a truly likeable. wam and engaging person. He always managed to get the best out of our little board and strtved determinedly to raise our profile. Always honest. he usually found a way and achieved consensus without appearing to try very hard. It was, by turns, effortless and brilliant. His motivational enthusiasm and energy will be extremely hard to repla. A life well-lived, achieving so much for the future, he will be sadly missed but remembered for his joy in it. Karen, Mark's wife, has been especially kind to all the Trustees in supporting our meetings at their home near Oxford. over the years, and has sep4ed up the most enjoyable and convivial lunches. Our thoughts are wrth her and their daughters, Te&8a and Freya. .2 Admlnlstratlon The CIO Is a registsred UK Charrty and is also registered wrth HM Revenue and Cu81oms for tax purposes. This enables the Charity to reclaim tax in relation to donations made by UK resident Individuals via the Grfl Aid scheme and gives UK tax exemptions in relation to income and capital gains arising in the course of its charitable actNities. 3 Our Misslon To provide funds to data-drtven and community supported predator conservation efforts that enable the long-term viaibility of predator populations in Kenya. 4 Our Vi8ion Our vision is a Kenya where healthy predator populations are the comerstone of thriving ecosystems. Our Values Rèsults focussed: we are committed to setting clear. measurable targets for which we deploy funds and monitor progress. Trust: we believe that trust is a critical component to successful working relationships between our slakeholders. including donors. grantees. staff and TruStS. Page-lO_
KENYA WILDLIFE TRUST UK a Charitable Incorporated Organlsation Annual Report and Financlal Ststements, 2023 Transparency and Accountabillty: As stewards of donations, V believe in transparency and accountability of funds ensuring that all donations are directed to projects in the field and the use of those funds are monitored appropriately Expertise and Knowledge: we believe in the value of scientrfic monitoring and data to inform conservation strategies. .6 Our Foc The CIO shares a common focus wrth the Kwf and we maintain close links in support of their work in Kenya. Predators: Kwf-UK is a finn supporter of the MPCP, Kwfs flagship programme, whose overarching objective is to support stable. healthy predator populations in the Greater Mara Ecosystem by providing scientific eviden for conservation action. The programme embodies the Kwf's value proposrtion of being drivèn by sciénce and focussed on people. MPCP'S objectives and activitles are realised through two teams- Re8earGh and Community who work to ensure that predators and people co-exist peacefully Genuine community engagement complements praGtical Conservation management recommendations, solutions and ideas developed through robust research and monitoring practIS. Poople: We support conservation work which is strongly anchored in collaborating with communities living alongside wildlife. The Kwf works with and empowers local communities and educates all stakeholders about conseNation and environmental stewardship. Fundamental to this is thè Kwf's Conservation Leadership Programme which hopes to ensure Ihat the unique knowledge of young people in Kenya's core ecosystems of the Greater Mara, Amboselirrsavo and Laikipialsamburu can be enhanced by a quality higher education degree. The programme offers full funding to study wildlife Gonservatk)n at undergraduate level at a group of hand-picked universities in Kenya and works with local schools and NGOS to select gifted students with leadership potential who would not otherwise have the opportunity to pursue a qualty education. Partnershlps: We belteve a target driven and collective approach will lead to much more effectiva work in these core ecosystems. We develop and strengthen partnerships with like-minded organlsations working together to achieve greater impacts in predator conservation. We support granl-making to strengthen grassroots organisations, many of whom know more about the realrties of these ecosystems than anyone. We are prepared to make grants to organisations focusing on protection of predators as well as community health and education pro}ects. Activitles For Kenya. wildlife is a major contributor to both national and IoGal economies. Tourism earns foreign exchange, whilst tourist facilities and caliVe land-use models, such as the ever-spreading conservancies, channel funds to local communits.es both through employment opportunities and also a8 rents to the traditional land-owners. Pag¢-il-
KENYA WILDLIFE TRUST UK Charltable Incorporated Organlsation Annual Report and Flnancial Ststements, 2023 Much of Kenya comprises semi-arid and arKI common access lands. 8UPPOrting populations which have different cultures, traditions and beliefs. Many of them are semi-nomadic and these days they need to cooxist with other peoples with different objectrves and whose diverse livelihoods include both working the land and conservation. Tourism is often a fundamentsl part of the land use in such areas. There is nothing to bring tourists and visrtors to these areas in numbers without the wildlife. Thls wildlrfe is unique to Africa and under threat from pre8sure of people everywhere. It Is tough for these peoples to eke out a living and most often rt is the wildlife habitat that is destroyed andlor wild animals who ar8 forced to move or be killed. In such 8ltuation8 of competition for resources, or even of direct conflict, it is commonly the large carnivores that are first targeted or suffer reduction or even local extinction but the impact extends to other wildlife, particularly birds, especially Whe poisoning is involved. Our vision seeks to create an environment In which people and camivores SUCCAssfully co-exist.. where pèople recogni8e the value of the wildlife and want to presepie it as part of their heritage and Kenya's future. In common with the Kwf, KWT-UK is committed to raising funds to support data4riven and community-supported predator conservation efforts. We believe in making grants to trusted partners that have a demonstrated track record of success. We expect to buiid a relationship based on trust so that grants can be primarity unrestricted allowing grantees to utilise resources as they see fit, so that they can achieve the greatest amount of impact themselves. Grante•9 aré selected because they embody our values. Whilst our natural link and philosophy are to the Kwf, we believe in 3UPPOrting the diversity of new African civil organi8alion3 that are demonstrably welkrun and govemed and whose missions coincide with ours. Consequently, we have a grant application process that runs independently of the funding needs of the Kwf. lthilst we aim primarity to fund efforts wrthin Kenya's three most important ecosystems, we will consider projects in other areas of Kenya which support broader predator monitoring and conservation. Further information is available at h s.l1w.ken awildlifetrust.o 5.8 Commltment Th@. last ye2r h2É conlinuad to b• diifroult •nd a whilot thcre haa tspen oome rocus piacea on Identifying possible funding sources for Kwf, the Twstees have found it difficult to move on following the death of Mark Stanley Price. The Trustees still feel we should be able to find our own niche in the very competitive UK market for fund-raising for conseniation in Africa. However, we also feel that before we can do that we need to revitalise the Board of Trustees and encourage the invofvement of new blood with more experience and higher profiles than ourselves. this in mind we have been taking some tentative step$ towards recruiting new board membepJ. Page-12-
KENYA WILDLIFE TRUST UK a Charltable InGorporated Organlsation Annual Report and Flnancial Ststsments. 2023 More importantly, though. we need to develop a strategic plan which will guvje us for at least 3 years. Moving forwards is dependent upon having a plan and for that we need a fully functioning and collectively more experienced board of trustees who In execute the plan. More to follow on this in the future. We feel that the UK Board and CIO is an important support to in many ways other than as a mere provider of funding. As such. it makes for an unusual model, and will guide the search for further trustees with the aim of enhancing this technical<um- social support. But the more strategic issue remains for resolution in 2023124 of whether Kwf-UK can play a valuable support role, especially if and when the Kwf is awarded very significant grant money for ecA)system-wide research. 5.5 Fundlng and fundral8lng The CIO'8 funding is currently received from individuals, film companies and small corporations and institutions. Most often, the first Indivldual donation results from a vacation experience in Kenya where individuals are engaged in conversation with their guides and hosts and become exposed for the first time to the aims and objectlves of the CIO in the communities. Social media sites suth as Facebook continue to be inportant to us provising a steady stream of funds, mostly from individuals Currently the CIO will accept cheques drawn on a UK bank aGGount and direct donations into the CIO'S PayPal Giving account (both. preferably. with a complèted Gfft Aid declaration). We also mantain payment arrangements with the major fund-raising platforms 8uch a8 Just GNing and CAF. IndNiduals, in the UK, can also grft their tax repayments as a donation to the CIO through their tax return by quoting reference EW39224 in the appropriate section of their tsx return. Pa8e-13-

Sufficient funds are held to enable the CIO to respond to unexpected evenls. The Trustees expect to make funding available for specific purposes and projects Identified and approved by them. Our income is Gurrently still at a low level and we have worked with Kwf to identify where we might be of the most assistance.

With this objective we can provide funding on a small scale quickly, meeting equipment needs which are often overlooked or not eligible from large granls. We feel this 18 a valuable role, and of Gourse forms a base for very good story-telling from the field. The CIO aims to be able to make grants based on all donations (unless specifically donated for operational support) and aims to limit its other expenses. suGh as advertising and brochureslleaflets, to funds received as a result of Gift Aid claims. 6.1 Incom Iv dln The total income received in the year, all of which was donated together with related tax recoverable was £7,512 (2022 £18,051). £4,06912022 £3.200) of the income had restrictions placed upon its usage. 6.2 Result for the Y There was an overall (deficit)Isurplu8 incurred In the year of £14,483) (2022 £10,714). 6.3 Fund8 held At the end of the accounting period the CIO'S funds carried forward were £9,243 (2022 £13,726).
