TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING ON 31[ST] MARCH 2021

The trustees are pleased to present the fourth annual report of The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO (referenced later as “SloCo”) which was registered as charity number 1170992 on 5th January 2017. The registered office is at Bank Vale Barn, Bank Vale Road, Hayfield, SK22 2EZ, United Kingdom.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objec�ves

The objec�ves of The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on are:

(a) To promote, for the benefit of the public, the conserva�on of all sloth species through the protec�on and improvement of the physical and natural environment.

(b) To advance the educa�on of the public, through the implementa�on of local and interna�onal educa�on programs , in the conserva�on of sloths and the protec�on and improvement of the rainforest environment that the sloths require.

Ac�vi�es

The period of this report cons�tutes SloCo’s fourth opera�onal year, and it has been (another) extraordinary year for humans and sloths alike. The pandemic has dominated the lives of our team and the communi�es that we work with, and we con�nue to find new ways to adapt to our everchanging reality. Here at SloCo, this year has really proved how much our people and our purpose ma�er, and it has showed the difference that our voice and our ac�ons can make.

Despite the complica�ons created by the ongoing pandemic, it has been a hugely successful year in which we combined research, conserva�on, community engagement and educa�on, as well as strengthening the internal structure of the organiza�on and building on the solid founda�ons established during previous years. We were able to expand our conserva�on efforts to include the vulnerable maned sloths in Brazil, and our team doubled in size as our projects grew.

We con�nued to develop our long-term conserva�on programs that are producing measurable progress towards our objec�ves. As in previous years, the primary methods of fundraising were through the sale of symbolic sloth adop�ons, merchandise, and individual dona�ons. The trustees

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

confirm that they have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when making decisions during the report period.

Contribu�on made by volunteers

During the report period, the ac�vi�es of the organisa�on were carried out by a mixture of volunteers, contracted employees, and hired professional services. A total of 12 volunteers donated their �me to assist in the physical comple�on of tasks on a day-to-day basis in Costa Rica, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Volunteer work included plan�ng trees, coordina�ng community events, tracking sloths post-release, collec�ng observa�onal data on sloth behaviour, crea�ng online content, marke�ng, and accoun�ng.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

During the report period, the primary organisa�on website (www.slothconserva�on.org) underwent major renova�ons to launch a new online Sloth Shop and a�ract increased traffic (through Search Engine Op�misa�on and targeted marke�ng strategies), which in turn maximised dona�on revenue and provided a greater wealth of informa�on about sloths to the public.

Compared to the previous year, website traffic increased from 125,000 users to 250,000 users (a

100% increase). Despite the financial instability and uncertainty generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, these website upgrades generated a substan�al increase in income for the organisa�on during the report period, with 2784 symbolic sloth adop�ons being made through our website (50% more than the previous year).

We also substan�ally increased our social media following and online community engagement

throughout the year , which in turn generated addi�onal income via social media ‘donate’ bu�ons. With this increase in financial stability, we were able to further expand our exis�ng projects, launch four major new conserva�on ini�a�ves, construct a new forest nursery, and secure our first ever headquarters for the organisa�on in Costa Rica.

Below is an overview of the project work carried out by the charity during the report period, and a summary of the main highlights.

PROJECTS:

Connected Gardens

Loss of habitat through the unsustainable development and urbanisa�on of the rainforest is the biggest threat to the conserva�on sloths in Costa Rica. Electrocu�ons on power lines, a�acks from domes�c dogs, gene�c isola�on, road traffic collisions and human exploi ta�on can all be traced back to the encroachment of humans into the sloth’s habitat.

Reducing these threats requires long-term, community-based conserva�on solu�ons that provide sustainable ways in which humans and sloths can coexist peacefully.

The ‘Connected Gardens Project’ empowers community members in Costa Rica to ensure that every single property in a given area maintains canopy connec�vity with neighbouring proper�es. This network of ‘connected gardens’ provides a safe route of passage for sloths and other arboreal

animals and increases habitat availability in disturbed areas.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, we were unable to work directly with local communi�es for several months during 2020. During this period of isola�on, we took the opportunity to construct a

new forest nursery that is capable of cul�va�ng over 3500 sloth-friendly trees encompassing 30 different species.

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

A�er the quaran�ne restric�ons li�ed in August 2020, we were ready to hit the ground running and made substan�al progress on this project compared to previous years due to the appointment of a

new dedicated staff member to manage all aspects of the ini�a�ve. This included the launch of the

Street-By-Street campaign which aims to be�er target reforesta�on efforts in a more systema�c and structured way.

Individual ‘streets’ in the South Caribbean are targeted with awareness and educa�on campaigns for 1 week each, star�ng at a central point and expanding outwards throughout the region. These campaigns inform and engage property owners down each street and secure their willingness to par�cipate in the project.

Despite the 6-month mandatory lockdown imposed by the Costa Rican government in response to

the pandemic, 78 key areas for reforesta�on were iden�fied during the report period , and

property surveys were carried out at each loca�on to determine the most appropriate course of ac�on. 2070 trees were grown from seeds in the SloCo forest nursery and planted in these target

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

areas to restore the lost canopy connec�vity and provide safe habitat for wildlife. These trees were planted over an area of 30 km[2] to create biological corridors that now connect 70 different forest fragments in the South Caribbean. Each year these trees will absorb over 26,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere!

In 2018 a landslide caused by heavy rain completely devastated part of the kekoldi indigenous territory, wiping out the forest and leaving many people homeless. This year we focused our efforts on refores�ng and restoring this land, helping not only the local people, but also the local wildlife .

Sloth Crossing Wildlife Bridges

Without a natural or ar�ficial canopy bridge, the only way for a sloth to move from tree to tree is by crawling on the ground. This takes a lot of �me and energy and leaves them very vulnerable to traffic collisions, dog a�acks and human disturbance. By installing Sloth Crossing wildlife bridges, SloCo is restoring habitat connec�vity and enabling sloths and other arboreal wildlife to safely navigate the places that humans share with them.

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

During the report period, 65 Sloth Crossing bridges were built and installed in the South Caribbean of Costa Rica, connec�ng over 130 different habitat fragments, and u�lizing 832 meters of rope (a 225% increase over the previous year). This increase in produc�vity and efficiency is due largely in part to SloCo staff members receiving formal training and cer�fica�on in tree climbing. We were finally able to buy our own climbing equipment and install the bridges ourselves, instead of depending on external climbers and their busy schedules.

Mo�on-ac�vated camera traps were installed on some of the bridges and 20 different arboreal species were recorded – including both species of sloth! Educa�onal signs were also installed underneath each bridge to explain its purpose and to acknowledge generous donors who made the project possible.

Following on from the collabora�on that we formed with ICE (the Na�onal Electric Company of Costa Rica) last year, we were able to build and install the first structured wildlife bridge across a major road in the South Caribbean during the report period. The installa�on of this bridge was

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

delayed several �mes due to the coronavirus pandemic, however since the restric�ons have been li�ed, there are now plans in place to install 5 addi�onal road bridges in the coming months.

Sloth School

The well-being of humans and the natural world is inextricably linked. In order to ensure that wildlife and healthy ecosystems exist in abundance for future genera�ons, children need to be involved from an early age. SloCo’s Educa�on Outreach program engages and empowers children to be stewards of their environment by increasing their understanding of sloths and how to address the threats they face.

For the majority of the report period, in-person classes in schools in Costa Rica were suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic which meant that our sloth workshops were unable to take place

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

following our usual format. In response to this, we moved our Sloth School program online, offering free virtual lessons for school groups via Zoom on different sloth related topics. All sloth educa�on materials were also made available for free to download on the organisa�on’s website for any families with children not able to a�end school due to the pandemic.

During the report period, we hosted 90 sloth workshops online reaching over 2000 children both

interna�onally and in Costa Rica . Through these workshops children were taught about the biology of sloths, their role within the ecosystem, and how they can address the challenges that sloths are facing.

The classes were taught in English, Spanish, and the local indigenous language of Bribri when applicable. The Bribri community has one of the lowest literacy rates in Costa Rica, and yet these are the people who have the greatest interac�on with local wildlife.

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

As a part of our educa�on program, we also formed a new collabora�on with the Girl Scouts of the USA and ran online sloth workshops for 1000 girls throughout the year. Following on from these lessons, the girl scout troops went on to fundraise for us during our year end campaign, raising a total of £11,000 to support our sloth conserva�on efforts.

Power line insula�on

Sloths climb on the electricity lines to travel between trees in urban areas, and the cables are very poorly insulated. There are more than 3000 wildlife electrocu�ons every single year in Costa Rica and over half of the electrocuted animals are sloths. The survival rate following an electrocu�on is only about 25%. During the report period we par�cipated in several major mee�ngs with the na�onal electricity company of Costa Rica (Ins�tuto Costarricense de Electricidad - ICE) to develop strategies to be�er prevent wildlife electrocu�ons. A collabora�ve contract is being drawn up that

will allow SloCo to provide direct funding to ICE for further powerline insula�ons across the country. This official collabora�on is expected to be finalised next year.

Ending sloth exploita�on

Throughout 2020 there was a con�nued rise in the number of cruel and exploita�ve ‘sloth encounter experiences’ being disguised as enrichment and educa�on in the United States. There is a direct connec�on between the poaching of wild sloths for tourist photo opportuni�es (which is escala�ng rapidly), and how people are being allowed to interact with sloths at reputable organiza�ons worldwide. 70% of all sloth photos on Instagram now show people holding, touching, or using them

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

as photo-prop accessories. For millions of people, seeing these images every day ‘normalizes’ the behaviour and is contribu�ng to the wildlife selfie crisis that we are seeing today.

During previous years we had focused our efforts on comba�ng this problem through community campaigns, including establishing permanent and semi-permanent signage in high tourist areas in Costa Rica to promote responsible “sloth tourism”, and to educate people on what they should do if they see a sloth being offered for holding or photo opportuni�es. Throughout the report period this was not an appropriate strategy due to the collapse of the tourism industry in Costa Rica following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Instead, we chose to redirect our efforts online and coordinated three major online campaigns raising awareness of inappropriate and exploita�ve sloth encounter experiences. In par�cular, we launched a major online campaign in February to put an end to ‘sloth yoga’ and ‘sloth swimming lesson’ events in which par�cipants are encouraged to touch, hold, and take selfie photographs with the sloth. We collected over 72,000 signatures in an online pe��on and the organisa�ons cancelled all future events! This year we also published a free virtual guide which helps people to make informed and ethical choices when booking a sloth encounter experience at a zoo or rescue center.

The Sloth Friendly Network

While the interna�onal tourism industry flatlined throughout 2020, we took this opportunity to further develop our rela�onships with local business owners in the South Caribbean by launching a new conserva�on ini�a�ve: the Sloth Friendly Network (SFN). The Sloth Friendly Network (SFN) is the first sloth accredita�on program to help concerned travellers make informed choices by highligh�ng local businesses that have been doing their upmost to help wildlife in the area. Through

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

the Sloth Friendly Network, we can ensure that every single property in a given area maintains canopy connec�vity with neighbouring proper�es. This network provides a safe route of passage for sloths and other arboreal animals and increases habitat availability in disturbed areas. Property owners benefit through an increased presence of wildlife on their land, which in turn a�racts more visitors.

We provide community members with everything that they need to make their business as sloth - friendly as possible for free. Through our Connected Gardens project, we provide and plant na�ve trees, build and install Sloth Crossing wildlife bridges, and we provide all educa�onal materials needed to teach guests about the ways they can help to protect sloths.

All accredited businesses receive a framed SFN accredita�on cer�ficate, educa�onal materials and sloth-themed giveaways for their guests and promo�on on our website and in the ‘Slowly Planet’ – the ul�mate travel guide for sloth-friendly tourism in Costa Rica. During the report period we were able accredit the first 15 local businesses in Costa Rica and have a list of 22 more who are wai�ng to join the program.

Saving sloths by helping dogs

Domes�c and stray dog a�acks are now the second leading cause of death for sloths in Costa Rica. The chances of a sloth encountering a dog are high due to the sheer number of dogs roaming around and the fact that human development is breaking up the sloth’s habitat. Incorrect beliefs about the castra�on and steriliza�on of animals, coupled with irresponsible ownership and abandonment, has lead to a large number of stray and feral dogs roaming the streets.

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

The ‘Oh My Dog’ project was first launched in 2019 and we expanded this ini�a�ve substan�ally throughout the report period. The project aims to reduce the number of dog a�acks on wildlife in Costa Rica via a three-pronged approach:

Reduce the need for arboreal animals to travel on the ground. This is achieved by plan�ng trees in target areas and installing wildlife canopy bridges to connect habitat fragments. We work with private property owners who’s dogs have been known to a�ack wildlife in the garden, as well as with the government of Costa Rica to make urban areas safer for sloths.
Reduce the number of dogs roaming around unsupervised. We aim to fund the steriliza�on and rehoming of all stray dogs in the South Caribbean region of Costa Rica, and during the report period we spayed and neutered 173 stray dogs. We also began the process of organising and funding the first castra�on clinics for indigenous communi�es in remote areas who have limited access to veterinary care for their pets.
Community educa�on to encourage responsible dog ownership. During the report period we launched the first Oh My Dog Academy – a free dog training course for communi�es in the South Caribbean. Professional dog trainers were brought into the community for a week, and 48 dogs with a history of aggression towards wildlife were trained to not a�ack sloths on the ground.

SloCo Labs: sloth release and research

To date no published studies have been carried out to determine the fate of rehabilitated, cap�vereared or relocated sloths a�er release. Although sloths have been hand-reared and released into the wild by numerous organisa�ons for over a decade, there has been no clear understanding of their fates because post-release monitoring with radiotelemetry has not been a common prac�ce. Consequently, there is much debate over whether hand-reared sloths can survive in the wild at all, with some ins�tu�ons choosing to maintain orphan sloths as permanently cap�ve animals.

In 2018 SloCo launched a long-term collabora�ve study to monitor and document the survival of radio-collared hand-reared sloths a�er being released into the wild from the Jaguar Rescue Center (JRC) on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica.

This project con�nued in 2020 with an addi�onal 11 released sloths being tracked and monitored throughout the report period. Each sloth was equipped with a VHF tracking collar and was located by the research team three �mes per week. Important data was collected on the behaviour, loca�on,

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

movement and health of each sloth , and the results of the project will be published as a scien�fic paper so that all organisa�ons and individuals working in the rehabilita�on of sloths can benefit and learn from the outcome.

SloCo Labs: sloth gene�cs

Six years ago, we launched a major research project into sloth gene�cs in Costa Rica and this year the results of that project were finally published. We started this project because we were concerned with the number of wild sloths in the South Caribbean region that are being born with debilita�ng birth-defects (missing fingers/toes, malformed ears, and misshapen limbs), and we wanted to know what was happening. In order to find out, we collaborated with Dr. Chloe

Robinson, Swansea University, and the Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica to undertake the first exploratory inves�ga�on into sloth popula�on gene�cs in Costa Rica. The results of this pro ject revealed an unexpected situa�on with far-reaching implica�ons for future sloth conserva�on and

We collected hair samples from 98 two-fingered sloths that originated from different regions throughout Costa Rica and used microsatellite analysis to look at the popula�on gene�cs.

We were able to iden�fy 4 gene�c groups of two-fingered sloths in Costa Rica. Sloths in the ‘North’ group were found to be gene�cally very dis�nct when compared to the other popula�ons. We suggest that it may be important to recognize this sub-popula�on as a separate unit for management and conserva�on purposes. Sloths in the ‘West’ group have higher levels of inbreeding. This suggests that we need to focus more conserva�on and research efforts in th is region to be�er understand the long-term effects of habitat fragmenta�on. Finally (and perhaps most importantly),

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

we discovered that sloths in the West, East and South East groups were all surprisingly similar. This close relatedness between sloths living on opposite sides of Costa Rica is an unexpected and poten�ally concerning result.

All of this points towards the transloca�on of sloths by humans in Costa Rica, where individuals have been removed from their areas of origin and released somewhere else. This discovery means that rescue facili�es in Costa Rica should consider the gene�c background of rehabilitated sloths when planning future reintroduc�ons . Sloths should be released in the areas where they originated from whenever possible.

SloCo Labs: The Urban Sloth Project

In November this year we launched the Urban Sloth Project: a long-term inves�ga�on into the impacts of habitat disturbance and rainforest urbaniza�on on the behaviour of wild sloths in Costa Rica. This project aims to compare the behaviour of sloths living in highly urbanized areas with those sloths living in healthier environments (protected primary rainforests). For example, we will be comparing how much �me these sloths spend in different behaviors, what tree specie s they are using for food and shelter, how far they are having to move to find food, how much �me they are spending on the ground vs in the canopy.

Over the next 5 years, we will be tracking and monitoring 32 wild sloths as a part of this project , and the results will be used to develop effec�ve conserva�on strategies that will help humans and sloths to peacefully coexist. For example, we will be able to iden�fy which tree species are most important for sloths living in urban areas, and we can make sure that these species are protected and replenished. We will also be able to iden�fy areas where canopy connec�vity needs to be

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

improved to aid sloth dispersal via the installa�on of wildlife bridges and through targeted

During the report period we equipped 7 urban sloths with tracking collars, and 3 urban sloths with special sloth backpacks. A ‘Sloth Backpack’ is a small, made-to-measure harness that contains a micro-datalogger called a ‘Daily Diary’. The Daily Diary logger records 8 different parameters over 40 �mes a second (that’s almost 28 million data points a day!). The data logger is contained within a small 3D printed housing that is designed and built specifically for this project – unique for each sloth! SloCo’s research team spent a total of 847 hours monitoring urban sloths and collected over 2800 data points for this project during the report period.

SloCo Labs: Maned sloths

While our SloCo headquarters are based in Costa Rica, we are commi�ed to conserving and protec�ng all 6 extant species of sloth that are found throughout South and Central America. During March 2021 we were delighted to form an exci�ng new collabora�on with Professor Gaston Giné and the Ins�tuto Tamandua in Brazil to carry out important new research into maned sloth ecology . Due to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, funding for wildlife research and conserva�on has become scarce as government resources are directed elsewhere. This crisis has le� maned sloth research and conserva�on projects in Brazil vulnerable and in danger of running out of resources. During the report period we were happy to have been able to provide funding for 10 new state-of-the-art GPS sloth backpacks that will be used by Gaston Giné and the Ins�tuto Tamandua to con�nue their important work and be�er understand the ecological requirements, habitat preference, and movement pa�erns of this vulnerable species. Three members of the SloCo

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

team travelled to Brazil to deliver the new GPS backpacks and help deploy them, and to learn more

about the maned sloths.

HIGHLIGHTS:

SloCo HQ

This year we secured our first official jungle 'home' (headquarters) for SloCo in Costa Rica and built a second forest nursery that is capable of producing over 3500 sloth-friendly trees!

Protec�ng sloths means protec�ng people

Our sloth conserva�on programs are based in the South Caribbean of Costa Rica – a region that depends heavily upon tourism. As interna�onal travel ground to a halt during 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, the local community began to struggle.

In response, we decided to help provide essen�al items such as food, drinking water, cooking fuel, clothes for children and basic sanitary / hygiene products to the local community.

It can be easy to overlook the important connec�on between wildlife conserva�on and community conserva�on, but protec�ng people and biodiversity is equally important. If livelihoods in the local community are vulnerable, then the demand on natural resources increases and over-exploita�on can occur. Conserva�on success lies in developing programs that are mutually beneficial for both people and wildlife.

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

This year we are proud to have formed collabora�on with a local food bank to support 170 families with 270 children in the South Caribbean.

The Wildlife Conserva�on Network’s Fall Expo

For the second year running we were delighted to host a booth at the Wildlife Conserva�on Network’s fall expo. This virtual event took place over 2 consecu�ve weekends in October and offered a brilliant opportunity for Team Sloth to connect with fellow conserva�onists from around the world.

Sloth Month

This year in October we celebrated sloth month, culmina�ng in Interna�onal Sloth Day on Tuesday the 20th… and what a month it was! From sloth yoga to sloth cocktails, together we celebrated the world's slowest mammals in style. During this month we were delighted to collaborate with and receive support from people and organisa�ons such as the United Na�ons, Jennifer Lopez and Kristen Bell!

Sloth-oween at the San Francisco Zoo

During 2020 we teamed up with the San Francisco Zoo to celebrate Sloth-oween and to raise awareness of the conserva�on problems for sloths. We worked with them to create a spooky trail through their sloth enclosure including designing educa�onal and interac�ve sloth displays for guests to enjoy.

Our educa�on program reaches Japan!

This year we were delighted to partner with the Omuta City Zoo in Japan! They helped us to translate our sloth educa�on materials into Japanese so that we can inspire the next genera�on of sloth-loving students in Japan!

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the repor�ng period, the charity has successfully carried out its opera�ons by raising a total income of £248,101. By comparison, total income for the previous year was £113,912. Restricted funds in the form of grants totalling £10,230.21 were received from the Chari�es Aid Founda�on

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

America and from La Passerelle Conserva�on. Total expenditure during the report period was £212,010 compared to £96,148 during the previous year.

Reserves policy

The trustees maintain that the charity should carry a general reserve about equal to three months predicted unrestricted fund expenditure to ensure that the launched conserva�on ini�a�ves are protected against unforeseen shor�alls. Based on expenditure rates during the report period, the general reserves held therefore equated to £30,000. The charity has no fund or subsidiary undertaking that is materially in deficit.

Plans for future years

In the coming year, we intend to con�nue expanding and developing our exis�ng conserva�on programs in the south Caribbean of Costa Rica, reaching new areas, and connec�ng with new people. In par�cular, we want to:

add 15 more sloths to our Urban Sloth Project,

double the number of trees planted,

spay, neuter, and train another 500 dogs,

set up camera traps on all of our wildlife bridges,

design and install be�er wildlife bridges over highways and major roads.

We also plan to begin training the first-ever Sloth Scat Detec�on Dog in order to complete the world’s first comprehensive sloth popula�on survey.

In May 2021 we are planning to coordinate the first free community dog castra�on campaign in the remote village of Tortuguero in the Northern Caribbean. In this region dogs are es�mated to outnumber humans 3:1 and are causing significant problems for wildlife. We will also be working in collabora�on with other local NGO’s to begin installing the first Sloth Crossing wildlife bridges in Tortuguero, and we will start educa�ng local children about wildlife conserva�on.

We plan to maintain our financial sustainability to achieve these ac�vi�es in the coming year by upda�ng our online symbolic sloth adop�on program to offer a greater variety of op�ons for donors. In par�cular, we aim to increase our number of reoccurring monthly donors by launching a Very Important Partner (VIP) membership program that will offer donors exclusive updates and access to behind-the-scenes content. We will also expand our corporate partnership program to offer more

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

structured promo�onal benefits in exchange for dona�ons, and we plan to branch into accep�ng cryptocurrency dona�ons towards the end of 2021.

COVID-19

In March 2020, Costa Rica declared a Na�onal State of Emergency in response to the coronavirus pandemic, and for the following 6 months the country went into mandatory lockdown. This meant that we had to temporarily pause all in-field programs that involved face-to-face contact with local communi�es. Despite this, we worked hard to find innova�ve new ways to con�nue running our opera�ons in a safe and effec�ve way.

We transi�oned our Sloth School educa�on outreach program online, rebuilt our forest nursery, developed more virtual content, and hosted online educa�onal campaigns – amongst other things. Since the start of the pandemic, fundraising has been sporadic and unpredictable across the en�re non-profit sector. In response to this uncertainty, it was necessary for us to remain flexible with our project goals throughout the year and so we scaled our projects accordingly depending on the income available.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The governing document is The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO Cons�tu�on (Founda�on Structure) whose Only Vo�ng Members Are its Trustees. This was adopted on 20th June 2016 and became recognised by the Charity Commission when the Charitable Incorporated Organisa�on was registered on 5th January 2017.

Appointment of Trustees

The governing documents define the ongoing arrangements for Trustees to run The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO. There can be a minimum of three and maximum of 12 charity Trustees, all serving for a minimum of three years. The Trustees have the power to elect new Trustees with regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effec�ve administra�on of the CIO. The appointment of new Trustees, as well as major decisions about the CIO’s ac�vi�es, are all decided at a mee�ng of the charity Trustees or by resolu�on in wri�ng or electronic form

The Sloth Conserva�on Founda�on CIO

Registered Charity No: 1170992

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Recognition of income These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: the charity becomes entitled to the resources; it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; the monetary value can be measured with sufcient reliability. Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specifed otherwise. There has been no ofsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Ofsetting Grants and donations Note 2 Accounting policies This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to benefciaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fxed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Legacies Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufcient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Support costs 2.2 INCOME Donated goods In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specifed goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Volunteer help The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.

Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES The charity accounts for basic fnancial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Tangible fxed assets for use by charity Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Grants payable without performance conditions The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14. They are valued at cost. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic fnancial instruments Income from membership subscriptions Income from interest, royalties and dividends Heritage assets This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by foor areas, or per capita, staf costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least Investment gains and losses Settlement of insurance claims Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Governance and support costs Creditors Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specifc level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specifed service or output.

Investments

Stocks and work in progress

Debtors

Current asset investments

Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.

Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments

Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value.

Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock.

Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.

Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.

The charity has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity of loss than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short-term cash commitments as they fall due.

Project started up last year and involved insulation of power lines to make them safe for Sloths (and other wildlife) as well as habitat restoration which involed planting trees and sloth crossing. This has grown and additional projects such as dog sterlisation and training as well as developing gardens and a nursery on the grounds of the sanctuary. Furthermore education andresearch were also undertaken but not listed above as this is deemed more BAU.
