Chairman's Report
Now into its fourth year, Two Wheels for Life (TWFL) has continued to support Riders for Health programmes in Africa. Riders mobilise frontline health workers and vital health care services to hard-to-reach communities in rural Africa by deploying well-managed motorcycles and ambulances. Two Wheels for Life has continued this vital support despite the severe restrictions imposed by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, on both fundraising activities and travel.
2020 has been an incredibly difficult year, due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, not only for Two Wheels for life but for any charity relying on mass gatherings at social and sporting events to generate income through raffles, auctions etc. and these were severely curtailed throughout most of the year with only limited sporting events taking place, usually behind closed doors.
In 2020, our primary, flagship fundraising event, The Day of Champions at the Silverstone round of the MotoGPTM season, was unable to proceed because of the pandemic, however, the TWFL team worked hard to develop many alternative activities which were organised and enabled funds to be raised in the absence of Day of Champions and the other activities that normally would have been taking place within the paddock during the season.
TWFL have continued to receive incredible support from the MotoGPTM paddock, specifically Dorna SL, IRTA (International Racing Teams Association), FIM (Federation Internationale de Motorcyclisme) and the racing teams that participate in the MotoGPTM series. We have received continued and significant support from regular donors who value the work TWFL supports in Africa. We are grateful to them all.
The primary aim of TWFL, as in previous years, has been to continue to support the well-established regimes that the teams in Africa have put in place to maintain vehicles to a high standard for use by Ministries of Health, and other health focused organisations, to fulfil the delivery of healthcare to isolated communities and to aid in the distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also highlighted the important role of TWFL and Riders for Health in working to improve African healthcare in the most challenging of regions and conditions.
TWFL has continued against the odds to develop the fundraising activities for the programmes in Africa and continues the technical and administrative support to aid them in their vital work.
Once again, by collaborating with our sister charity in the USA, Riders for Health II, technical expertise and digital development has been enabled for the operations in Africa, as part of a programme of continued improvement in areas of scarce resources.
25 million people continue to be supported because of Riders health systems strengthening methodology in rural areas. This is carried out directly by the programmes with the contributions, technical and financial support by TWFL and we continue to work together for the common goal of providing healthcare and expanding the support to as many people as possible.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Finally, once again I would like to make a special mention of the TWFL staff members. 2020 was an extremely difficult year with many restrictions preventing normal charity fundraising activities, however, the staff demonstrated their ability to work around these issues and to continue fundraising, organising many innovative activities despite the restrictions, all the while managing home-schooling and home pressures during the lockdowns.
The Chairman, CEO and Trustee's would like to place on record the gratitude of the charity to the efforts of the staff throughout a very difficult period.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Two Wheels for Life is a registered charity. The primary purpose of Two Wheels for Life is to support the reliable and predictable delivery of vital health care, goods and services, to the most remote and vulnerable people in rural Africa using well managed and maintained transport - a neglected aspect of health care for African communities. Our support is focused on UN Sustainability Goal 3.
Our vision is of a world where healthcare reaches everyone, everywhere. To do this, we know that reliable, well maintained transport has to be at the heart of health systems. Two Wheels for Life works with health related partners across Africa to help fund them in providing transport and maintenance services to keep health care on the road.
The objectives of the charity are the advancement of health for the public benefit through the promotion of access to healthcare for people in need, in any part of the world, but particularly on the continent of Africa. Two Wheels for Life provides grants, in particular but not exclusively to:
(a) develop and sustain transport networks necessary for the delivery of healthcare;
(b) provide and maintain motorcycles, other vehicles and technical equipment necessary for the delivery of healthcare and to provide training for the development of sustainable transport and healthcare systems
At the core of the work are the ideas of preventative maintenance, training and budgeting. By helping our partners budget for the long-term life of vehicles, training health workers how to ride them safely and conducting regular checks on vehicle performance, we can ensure they remain on the roads, helping to deliver health care, including;
Outreach Health Care
Training health workers how to safely ride a motorcycle and conduct daily mechanical checks on the bikes ensures that they can consistently and reliably reach six times more people and double the time they can spend in communities than would have been the case without the motorcycles.
Sample Transport
Motorcycle couriers safely transport blood and sputum samples from local health clinics to regional laboratories, often halving the time it takes for patients to receive life-saving test results.
Emergency Referrals
In an emergency situation, reliable transport really can mean the difference between life and death. The fourwheeled vehicles used by the Riders for Health are designed especially for the harsh African terrain, transporting patients from homes and health centre's to hospitals.
Supply Chain Distribution
The first step in health care delivery is getting supplies, such as vaccines, mosquito nets and medication from the factory to the field. Transporting these vital supplies from warehouses in major cities to rural health centres ensures that they can constantly have the medication they need for their patients.
Vehicle/driver/rider training
To ensure health workers stay safe on the roads, and to keep vehicles in the best possible condition, riders and drivers are trained how to safely control their vehicles. All health workers mobilised by Riders for Health in Africa must complete a 10-day training course in road safety, off-road driving and basic vehicle maintenance.
Employment
Maintenance, logistics and infrastructure requirements create employment and a skilled workforce. This is not the primary aim of the organisation, but it should be noted that as a result of the work we support there are almost 1,000 people who are in employment that may not have been otherwise employed.
Working together for success

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Two Wheels for Life is a partnership operation. Our aim is to underpin the work of the Riders for Health organisation, serving rural communities in Africa, giving them predictable and reliable access to their beneficiaries.
We work with partners at all levels of the health care delivery chain. Driven by the same commitment to a positive health outcome as our partners, such shared objectives have inspired us to create a sustainable infrastructure that complements existing systems, eliminates waste and builds in-country capacity.
Riders for Health is an African social enterprise and the Riders' programme teams are world leaders in the management and maintenance of vehicles for health focused organisations. It is comprised of 5 charitable organisations sharing the same humanitarian mission, which operate in the Gambia, Lesotho, Liberia, Malawi and Nigeria

Mission - To ensure reliable transport is available for healthcare services
-
Values - Local leadership, gender equality, cost effectiveness and partnership collaboration

Public benefit
In setting Two Wheels for Life's objectives and planning our activities, the trustees are satisfied that Two Wheels for Life has given careful consideration to both the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and advancement of health for the public benefit. The details of Two Wheels for Life's activities and achievements in the report show how Two Wheels for Life meets the criteria. The trustees always ensure that the activities we undertake are in line with our charitable objectives and aims.
Grantmaking
Two Wheels for Life only makes donations in line with its specific objectives, namely directly to support Riders for Health programmes in Africa. The directors and trustees will jointly agree on the reasons for (including benefits to the relevant programme), timing of and size of donation before the donation is made.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities
2021 AND COVID-19
The Riders for Health Africa programmes each have strategic plans to expand and deepen their sample transport and vaccine courier systems. Those plans have become even more important with the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic in Africa. TWFL is keen to support that strategy with equipment and training, where it can, and is working closely with the programme directors to understand their changing priorities and needs.
The Gambian programme is running highly effectively, offering a model of good practice that could be extended to other country programmes. To that end, we will look to continue and extend the liaison between The Gambia and Lesotho programmes.
Riders Lesotho has plans to replicate the Transport Asset Management programme that has been so successful in enabling the Ministry of Health in The Gambia to reach every man, woman and child with health care over the past 8 years.
COVID-19 travel restrictions effectively caused a halt to the physical progress and roll-out of the Transport Asset Management programme but plans are in place to recommence the implementation once restrictions are eased/lifted.
Two Wheels for Life Online
The development and launch of the new TWFL website in 2020 certainly gave greater visibility and clarity of what we do to our supporters and enabled an increase in online fundraising activities during the period of lockdown(s) and travel restrictions and generated income at a time when conventional fundraising activities were severely curtailed.
This will continue throughout 2021 and as restrictions are eased online fundraising and "normal" fundraising activities will complement each other.
Corporate support
We plan to seek as much pro-bono and goods in kind from corporate and other donors as possible in 2021. We will strengthen our pro-bono support so that our in-kind support complements the donations we receive.
Monitoring and Liaison
Our plans also envisage founder and trustee visits to some of the programmes in the course of 2022 to ensure that we maintain strong relations with the programmes and their teams, and to ensure we appreciate the challenges they face, travel restrictions permitting.
Our plans for fundraising in 2021/22
Regarding future income, our strategic plan is to widen our footprint across the motorcycle community and to expand, carefully, into a wider community that has an interest in systems that support access to healthcare for hard to reach rural communities in Africa.
As with most other charitable organisation's, the COVID-19 restrictions in place throughout 2020 had a significant impact on our traditional fundraising activities. Face to face fundraising, high value meet and greet style experiences that we are usually able to offer were hit extremely hard.
Our principal UK fundraising event, the Day of Champions which takes place annually at the Silverstone round of the MotoGPTM, was unable to take place due the event being cancelled as a result of the pandemic. We worked closely with Dorna and the MotoGPTM teams and organised an online alternative auction in the build-up to Christmas and we are now making preparations for hopefully the resumption of the MotoGP season in 2021 with live audiences.
As one of a number of initiatives to broaden the fund-raising base for the charity, we will hire a grant writer to apply to foundations and trusts specifically to support the work 'on the ground' in Africa.
We are also looking to mitigate the reduced income stream by organizing various alternative fundraising activities outside the sphere of the MotoGP events.
Page 6
TWO WHEELS FOR LIFE LIMITED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The Board will also consider a broader range of activities aimed at the motorcycling community outside of MotoGPTM, which could include fund raising events (physical and online), supported by other motorcycling events with partners such as Malle London and exploring the possibility of establishing a legacy programme.
Our overall goal is to ensure that the organisation and brand of Two Wheels for Life becomes better known and trusted now that we are more established. We have a strong story to tell and can readily show how our support impacts upon health care improvement in rural Africa.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
A summary of the period's results can be found on page 11 of this report and within the attached accounts.
Total income for the period amounted to £419,325. This was comprised of auctions, individual donations and merchandise profits.
Costs of raising funds was £27,956 and £343,751 was expended on charitable activities.
At the end of the period the charity had unrestricted reserves of £289,126 and restricted reserves of £10,050 held principally in cash at bank.
Services
DNG Dove Naish LLP provides Two Wheels for Life with financial services including payroll.
The Two Wheels for Life board provide governance, guidance and also active support in fundraising and finance management.
Reserves policy
The trustees look forward for a minimum period of one year to set the appropriate level of reserves for the organisation. In considering this, attention is being given to a) committed expenditure b) the liquidity of existing reserves and the likelihood of income. At the year end the trustees considered that free reserves should be between 6 and 12 months' expenditure. The reserves policy is kept under quarterly review.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks.
Principal risks include key personnel risk, loss of support from key funders and resource providers and wider economic risks. The charity also needs to broaden revenue sources beyond MotoGPTM. At the time of writing this report, the COVID-19 virus is still presenting significant risk of disease in the African countries where our programmes are located, and a significant risk to the charity's revenues from MotoGP-related sources.
We are seeking to mitigate this risk by continuing to broaden our donor base, seeking pro-bono services and maintaining a strong reserves policy.
Risks are mitigated through maintaining good contacts in the motorcycling community and charitable sector, working closely with funders and broadening the source and range of fund providers, reducing dependencies on individuals and maintaining resources on a prudent basis.

TWO WHEELS FOR LIFE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1. LEGAL FORM
Two Wheels for Life is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered address is listed on page 1.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed within the individual accounting policies.
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.
Cash donations and income from fundraising events are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deed of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) volunteering time is not recognised.
Donated services and facilities provided to the charity are recognised in the period when it is probable that the economic benefits all flow to the charity, provided they can be measured reliably. This is normally when the service is provided. An equivalent amount is included in expenditure.
Donated services and 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 facilities or services of equivalent economic benefit on the open market.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity, this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
Government Grants

Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
