TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Trustees present their Annual Report together with the financial statement of the CiaO Foundation CIO for the period from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023. The Trustees confirm the Annual Report and financial statements of the Charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Charity’s governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
HISTORY
The CiaO Foundation was formally established in February 2016 as a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO). However, its vision and ideology evolved over a three-year period from the firm belief of its founder, Geoffrey Barber, that Challenge is an Opportunity. Geoffrey Barber himself faced a life ‐ changing challenge having survived a horrific car crash in 2001, which left him in danger of not walking again. Through his determination, strength and belief he embraced this challenge to recover and resolved to pass on this learning and experience to encourage others to overcome their own challenges. As a result, the CiaO Foundation was officially formed and registered with the Charity No. 1165353.
Geoffrey Barber is the President for Life of the CiaO Foundation and the following are Trustees Andrew Hogge (Chairman), Andrew Rogers, Leona Ahmed and Richard Brazier.
Nugmais Powlesland is the Charity Manager. Nugmais receives and evaluates all the CiaO Award applications and reports to the Trustees with her recommendations. These applications are then reviewed at the Trustee meetings which take place 3- 4 times per year. The CiaO Awards are then agreed by the Trustees and Nugmais liaises with all Award winners ensuring they provide all sufficient paperwork before the Awards are made. Nugmais then arranges where practical for individual presentations by the Trustees to the Award winners. Nugmais also works together with the Trustees on fundraising initiatives/events.
We have an Administrator, Christina Gadsden, who attends Trustee meetings, takes minutes and assists with fundraising events. Christina kindly volunteers her services to CiaO.
All media work is undertaken by Jamie McGee, much of his work is done for the Charity on a cost basis only.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Method of Appointment or Election of Trustees:
Trustee appointments are governed by its Constitution which states that Trustees shall be elected at the annual general meeting.
Objectives
In setting the objectives and planning the activity of the charity, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.
It is the belief of the CiaO Foundation that anyone can overcome a challenge. Our aim is to motivate, inspire and help individuals going through challenges. We provide aid and funding to help and encourage those individuals to find their strength, meet their seemingly insurmountable challenges and achieving their goals.
The objectives of the charity as set out and agreed by the Trustees are as follows:
-
The first objective is to carefully consider, evaluate and select the most deserving applicants. The applicants must show a specific need or plan and intend to demonstrate how this will help them meet and overcome their challenges. Awards are given to both individuals and to approved organisations, for example: special needs schools; wheelchair sports teams and equine therapy centres.
-
The second objective is to recognise those people who have successfully overcome their own challenges and are advising others on how in turn to overcome theirs.
-
The third objective is to help, educate and change the attitude of people to welcome, meet and overcome challenges. We believe this will help people to improve their lives and the lives of their families and communities.
We monitor and evaluate progress and outcomes using the Warwick Edinburgh Wellbeing Scale. This is done in advance, during and on completion of each person’s journey through their challenge.
The Awards given to successful applicants are known as “CiaO Awards” which are tangible being in the form of therapeutic support, or specialised equipment (partially or fully paid for). The Awards help both the recipient and many others as illustrated in this report.
FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
CiaO arranged and organised several fundraising events this financial year.
- 1.0 CiaO held its inaugural Golf Day o n July 25[th] at the Army Golf Club near Farnborough. Sixty four people attended the event which following a light breakfast was played over 18 holes with sixteen teams of four golfers. The outright winners were Sarah Buxton, Amanda Cooper, Sue Clayton and Sian Waring. All participants then enjoyed an excellent BBQ hosted at the club which was followed by a Silent Auction and a Raffle. A total of £15,792 was raised on the day net of costs.
Trustee, Andrew Hogge thanked all those that participated together with the Army Golf Club for both hosting an excellent event on favourable terms for Ciao .

TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
- 2.0 A Fundraising lunch was held on January 26[th] in Surbiton which was generously hosted by Langleys Restaurant. The lunch was specifically held to raise funds to purchase interactive play equipment for circa 80 pupils (aged 4- 11) of Dysart Special Needs School. 50 local people attended the lunch including some of the teachers and parents of pupils in the school. The children participated in the fundraising by making and selling gingerbread biscuits and painted canvases.
A total of £ 4,600 net was raised at the lunch which was sufficient to also provide play equipment for Dysart’s sister school in Tolworth.
Andrew Hogge thanked all those that attended, together with Langleys restaurant for providing an excellent lunch as well as local business that generously provided both raffle prizes and Auction lots.
Kara Waters – Family & Outreach Support spoke after the lunch saying “We were absolutely blown away by people’s generosity. It was quite emotional to see everyone get behind our students and catch the Dysart Spirit, we are very proud of our students and to share that with some of the local community. Thank you so much for choosing Dysart to support. We are very grateful.
- 3.0 CiaO supported by corporate sponsors (Cyril Leonard, CPI & CBRE) funded the purchase of a Pilates Trapeze medical reformer to be used by VIM Health to treat those affected by physical injuries, disabilities and neurological conditions.
Tom Taverner – VIM Health “ The CiaO Foundation kindly donated the funds for us to purchase our very own Cadillac Reformer, which has proved incredibly useful. Many of our clients have neurological conditions and benefit from its design. The Reformer offers increased support whilst working on more strenuous movements and combining elements of Pilates and Yoga to create a unique and effective workout. It can be used to perform a multitude of exercises specifically designed to target the muscles and joints affected by neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Stroke.

CiaO provided funding for 8 persons on a 4 week mental well-being course and a young boy by the name of Harrison on a 12 week equine learning course.
Harrison ‘s mother “Harri started sessions when he was at a very low point in his mental and physical health . Small Strides took things very slowly and at his pace so that trust was built, and he was then able to access more direct work with the horses which made a significant difference in his self-esteem and communication“

3) Exeter Otters Wheelchair Basketball Team
CiaO provided funding for the purchase of new team kit and equipment for the Exeter Otters Wheelchair Basketball team.
Jack Davey
“The CiaO award has really helped us provide opportunities for more people to play and enjoy wheelchair basketball in a safe environment and helped our volunteers keep a professional look!
We have new basketballs, equipment, bibs, volunteers now have polos. The equipment has also opened up the opportunity to go into schools and provide wheelchair basketball sessions for more in the community.
The team has benefited from the award to get even more people with disabilities an opportunity to participate in an inclusive sport to help their mental health and socialise with others with a disability.
We can now provide opportunities for all abilities and disabilities and ensure everyone is having fun and enjoying wheelchair basketball “

FINANCIAL REVIEW
During the period to 31 March 2023 donation income received totalled £32,620. The charity pledged awards of £17,094 during the year to 31 March 2023 and will continue to donate their funds in this way. Further financial information is available from the Trustees on request.
The Foundations reserves carried forward were £ 81,168 are to be used to fund awards in furtherance of the charitable objectives.
Due to the costs of the charity exceeding the income year on year resulting in ever decreasing reserves it was agreed by the Trustees that our overheads needed to be reduced. Nugmais Powlesland , the Charity Manager kindly agreed to reduce her time commitment by 50% and in turn her salary on the same basis. This was agreed on the understanding that Andrew Hogge increased his time commitment to the charity on a pro rata and pro bono basis.
It is the policy of the Trustees to continue to build reserves and use the funds to make donations for the for the charitable trust objectives. As such, the funds currently held are in line with the charity’s reserve policy.

My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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) and Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and Charities Act 2011.
The CIAO Foundation CIO constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
1.2 Going concern
There are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
1.3 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
1.4 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. Donated facilities are included at the value to the Charity where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.
Donated services or facilities are recognised when the Charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the Charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the Friends is not recognised and refer to the Trustees' Report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure headings and activities of the Charity.
Charitable activity costs are costs incurred on the charity's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Charity apportioned to charitable activities. Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the Charity.
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the Charity's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Charity apportioned to charitable activities.
1.6 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges.
1.7 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and 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.
1.8 Financial Instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments.
1.9 Taxation
The charity is a registered charity and based on the activities undertaken is not liable for UK corporation tax.
The charity was not VAT registered during the year and therefore all expenses are inclusive of any VAT which cannot be fully recovered.
