WATERLOO UNCOVERED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Core objectives
Waterloo Uncovered (WU) uses the archaeology of the Battle of Waterloo to help those who have served their country find peace from war, whilst adding to world history and education.
The charity was established in 2015 (the Battle of Waterloo's bicentenary year). Since then it has conducted an annual excavation at the Waterloo Battlefield in Belgium when possible, developed several highly regarded support programmes and continues to educate across the archaeological and mental health arena.
At the core of WU are the Veterans and Serving Military Personnel (VSMP), who are offered a unique opportunity to take part in excavating one of the world's most famous battlefields, working with a team of top international archaeologists and students to advance the historical knowledge of the battle and those who fought in it.
At the same time, VSMP are offered support and encouragement with their health and wellbeing, recovery (from both mental and physical injury), education, employment, and vocational skills as well as assistance with the transition from military to civilian life. The nature of WU also means that the participating VSMP can add great value to the project. For example, their real-life experiences of the military and exposure to conflict means they can offer valuable insights which aid the interpretation of the archaeological finds and contribute to decisions about which areas of the battlefield to focus attention on. WU also runs several hybrid programmes, developed during the pandemic, to tackle loneliness and improve mental wellbeing. These programmes cover art, archaeological finds and higher education.
Fundamentally, WU was created to perform three essential aims:
-
Veterans and Serving Military Personnel Support: providing those who have served their country with the support they deserve when they need it most.
-
Archaeology of Waterloo: investigating and preserving the heritage of the battlefield before all traces are lost forever and adding new understanding to the military history of this decisive battle.
-
Education: providing formal education, informal learning and public engagement that broadens the understanding of war and its impact on people, both then and now.
While WU is UK based and the majority of those taking part and benefitting from its support are from the UK, the charity does have an important international aspect. International participants (primarily from the modern-day countries that took part in the Battle of Waterloo) but also from further afield are a key part of the project. Not least in helping to understand the battle from all sides, educate a wide and diverse audience, and continue to build important international relationships at a micro and macro level, from individual friendships to partnerships between institutions and governments.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activities
The financial year from 1st May 2022 to 30th April 2023 saw the charity reinstate its annual excavation after an enforced break during Covid. WU also continued to build on its successful VSMP Support Programme and ran seven programmes as follows:
-
Arts Programme: art focused on the Battlefield of Waterloo (supported 7 UK VSMP)
-
Finds Programme: working on handling collections and telling WU's story and educating around the Battle and the people involved on our programmes (supported 7 UK VSMP)
-
Virtual Programme: basic archaeology skills and mindfulness (supported 6 UK VSMP)
-
Hidden Histories: Women of Waterloo Programme: virtual heritage and arts programme taught by experts in history, educational wargaming and creative writing. First programme to support military spouses as well as VSMP (supported 12 in total)
-
Follow-On Programme: supported beneficiaries who participated in previous programmes for a further 12 month period (20 VSMP supported)
-
Excavation Programme: in-person excavation of the Waterloo Battlefield, helping VSMP's recovery through archaeology (supported 20 VSMP in total)
-
Battlefields Uncovered: WU's accredited education programme run in conjunction with Utrecht University (supported 35 UK VSMP).
Future Development
WU is on track to continue supporting veterans & serving military personnel for the next five years. 2023 was a year of significant change, and the charity begins 2024 with a new CEO following Mark’s departure in September 2023. WU has proved its ability to effect change in people's lives and to further the important archaeological work on the Battlefield. Looking to the future, WU plans to continue excavating the Waterloo Battlefield at least once a year and to continue to run its Education, Follow-On and Finds Programmes for UK VSMP.
The Charity will continue to grow at a desirable rate, in line with the support that it offers to veterans so well. WU will focus on raising funds to support its activity and expected growth, as well as working with international partners and other nations, without reducing the level of UK involvement.
Public benefit
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
STRATEGIC REPORT
Reserves policy
The Trustees' aim is to ensure that there are sufficient reserves to cover three to six months operating expenses but where this is not possible do not commit beyond available cash funds.

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
The Company is a public benefit entity for the purposes of FRS 102 and a registered charity established as a company limited by guarantee and therefore has also prepared its financial statements in accordance with the 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 (The FRS 102 Charities SORP) and the Companies Act 2006 Waterloo Uncovered meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
The financial statements have been prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.
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 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) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Raising funds
These include expenditure associated with implementing the objectives of the charity and include both direct and support costs relating to these activity costs.
Charitable activities
These include expenditure associated with implementing the objectives of the charity and include both direct and support costs relating to these activity costs
