It describes our achievements and finances. ## **What is Wave Hub?** Wave Hub is an inclusive café and community which brings people with and without learning disabilities together. People come to make friends, learn new skills, volunteer, exercise and enjoy being part of the community. We run lots of activities and events at the café, alongside our fabulous lunches, drinks and cake, to let as many people as possible join in. There are arts and craft sessions, fitness and dance classes, reading and games, and many more - we are happy to do anything, so long as it is inclusive. **----- Start of picture text -----**

## **Our team** Wave Hub is run by our staff, trustees and volunteers. We all work together with our participants as one team. Our volunteers give their time, skills and kindness every week. They help make Wave Hub a place where everyone feels welcome, valued and able to achieve their best. 3 ## **Summary** ## **Activities** Lots of exciting things happened for Wave Hub in 2025. We achieved some really big things: - **We began opening two days a week.** Many more people can now visit the café, and we can offer more work experience and volunteering opportunities **We ran more activities with movement and exercise** like fitness classes, yoga, walking, running and dance. These are good for physical health and mental well-being **More interns completed structured work experience** improving their chances of finding jobs in future **We were successful in raising money** , so our funds went up. Lots of people were involved in this. - There were some special highlights: Our new **Dance Class** is very popular and attracted many new people The **London Landmarks Half Marathon** was a great success. Nine runners raised over £15,000 for us, most of whom had not previously run that far Our inclusive **Supper Clubs** created opportunities for working together in mixed ability teams We really enjoyed our **Easter Party** and **Winter Fair** which raised much needed funds Lots of new people have joined **Wave Stitchers** and come most weeks We had a fun afternoon trying out **Bowling** at the club next door to the café And for many the highlight remains our **fab lunches.** 4 ## **Summary** ## **Finances** ## **Income** - In 2025, we received £117,140 - (around £1,700 for each day our café was open) Most of this came from fundraising, personal donations and selling food and drinks in the café It is around 25% more than last year, which is great Thank you to everyone who came to Wave Hub, bought things from us, donated money or helped us. ## **Costs** - Running Wave Hub in 2025 cost £102,612 This includes paying to use the café building, buying food, drink and materials, and paying our staff and people to deliver all the activities we enjoy - This is more than last year because we were open for many more days. ## **Savings** - At the end of the year, we had £62,446 in savings This is more than we had last year, because we received more money than we needed to spend This means we can keep running great activities next year and maybe start some more new ones too. ## **Thank you!** **We are proud of everything we achieved this year. Thank you for being part of Wave Hub!** 5 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Introduction** This report is our opportunity each year to update you on the Wave Hub story. We do our best in a few short pages to convey the essence of this unique place: what we do together, who takes part, our achievements, the remarkable impact we have, and why for our regulars, coming to Wave Hub is the highlight of their every week. What makes us distinctive is our determination to be fully inclusive, to do things together, without discrimination, and to value everyone who comes. Every year, we learn a little more about how to be genuinely accessible. That’s why you will see that this report starts with an easy-read style summary (some say it is the best bit!). We hope this inspires you to come along and see for yourself - ultimately, that is the only way to appreciate the magic! ## **Statutory declaration** The trustees declare that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers or duties. The trustees are satisfied that Wave Hub’s activities during the year directly furthered its charitable purposes for the public benefit. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity’s Constitution, the Charities Act 2011, and the Charities SORP (FRS 102). The trustees confirm that they have approved this Trustees’ Report. Signed on behalf of the Charity’s trustees Full names Graham Wright Richard Morris Positions Chair Treasurer Date 5 August 2026 5 August 2026 6 **Trustees’ Report** ## **Objectives** Wave Hub was established in 2017 to promote social inclusion within local communities by bringing together those with and without learning disabilities. We want to help our community embrace the "we're all valued equally" ethos that underpins all Wave activities and remove the ‘service user’ model of inclusion. Everyone benefits when individuals of different abilities work and socialise together, but there are limited opportunities locally for this to happen. So, we have worked towards establishing spaces and events that bring together those of all backgrounds and abilities to create a genuinely inclusive community. Wave Hub’s work promotes a society-wide change of attitude towards disability and difference. ## **Summary of objects as set out in our constitution** 1. The promotion of social inclusion for the public benefit in the London Boroughs of Barnet, Camden, Edmonton, Enfield, Haringey and Islington by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded*1 and assisting them to integrate into society in particular but not exclusively by: - (a) the provision of activities for people with learning disabilities or special needs to reduce social isolation in their lives - (b) establishing and running a café or cafés where people with learning disabilities or special needs may have opportunities to develop social and practical skills and receive support. 2. The promotion of education for the public benefit by: - (a) raising the awareness of the public of the issues that face people with learning disabilities or special needs*2 - (b) the provision of skills and other training for people with learning disabilities or special needs. - _*1 ‘socially excluded’ In this context means being excluded from society or parts of society, as a result_ - _of learning or other disabilities and special needs._ - _*2 ‘special needs’ means the individual requirements of a person with a disadvantaged background or a mental, emotional or physical disability or a high risk of developing one._ 7 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Key achievements** ## **Opening for a second day each week** In September, Wave Hub expanded from one to two days per week to meet growing demand. The additional day enables us to welcome new people while giving our regulars more opportunities to take part, build friendships and be connected. It also creates more volunteering roles, work experience placements and internship opportunities for people with learning disabilities. By the end of the year, we had again reached capacity on both Wednesdays and Thursdays, confirming the demand. ## **Physical activity becoming a core part of Wave Hub** At Wave Hub, being active is not about competition. It is about helping people realise what they can do, improving physical and mental wellbeing, and creating opportunities for people of all abilities to exercise together. Whether trying a fitness class for the first time, completing a Community Mile, progressing from walking to “Couch to 5K”, or training for a half marathon with our inclusive running club, every achievement is celebrated. With our extra day, we have doubled our fitness, yoga and dance capacity, enabling many more to enjoy regular physical activity. We even started a bowls class at our neighbouring Muswell Hill Bowling Club. We also champion healthy eating. Our lunches use a wide variety of natural ingredients, often meeting the “30 plants a week” challenge in a single meal, promoting immunity and gut health, and encouraging people to try new foods. ## **Delivering structured work experience** The work experience and training we provide aims to equip young adults with learning disabilities to find real work opportunities. In July we celebrated the graduation of five students accompanied by their job coaches. Each had demonstrated new skills from working in our kitchen, art room or front of house (depending on their preference and ability), serving customers and working in teams. 8 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Highlights** ## **Active Together: Dance, Movement and Wellbeing** This year we successfully established a regular inclusive dance programme, which has quickly become one of the highlights of our week. Led by Gabriella, the classes bring together people of different ages and abilities in a fun, welcoming and energetic environment. The sessions are particularly popular with students from TreeHouse School, who walk from the school to take part. This is an important opportunity for them to engage with the wider community and form friendships outside school. The classes encourage self-expression through movement while supporting both physical and mental wellbeing. The dance programme complements our popular fitness classes, yoga sessions and Community Mile walks, bringing together people who might otherwise never meet and creating friendships that continue beyond the dance floor. **"The students are always excited for Dance with Gabi. They leave the sessions smiling, proud of their achievements, and eager to return the following week“** Rossana Caglia, Employment Specialist with Ambitious about Autism (who run TreeHouse School) says: _“Dance with Gabi has been wonderful. Six TreeHouse students have participated regularly. All activities are carefully adapted for a wide range of needs, ensuring that every pupil can participate, enjoy themselves, and achieve success._ _Gabi creates a really welcoming and supportive environment. The students always look forward to attending and have grown in confidence, social interaction, and self-expression._ _The sessions also enable staff to take part alongside pupils, as peers, strengthening relationships and building valuable trust.”_ 9 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Highlights** ## **Supper Clubs** Supper Clubs continue to be one of the most powerful expressions of our mission. Planned and delivered by volunteers, students and participants working together, these evenings bring together people from different backgrounds who might otherwise never meet. Guests share tables, conversations and food with others in mixed groups, prompting connection and understanding between people with and without learning disability. For many, it is their first experience spending time socially with someone different from themselves. Assumptions are challenged and barriers frequently disappear over an evening. This is genuine inclusion in action. **“Last week’s Supper Club was a real joy. Of course, the food was terrific - it always is. But more notable was the atmosphere. The team were beaming as they served us all in such a professional way, clearly loving every moment”** The events also showcase the skills of our students and volunteers, who help prepare, serve and host the evenings. They usually sell out, demonstrating the strength of support within the local community. As well as raising valuable funds, these evenings help people of all abilities to be welcomed, valued and celebrated equally. 10 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Highlights** ## **Wave Stitchers: Creativity, friendship and belonging** Our Stitchers group has continued to flourish and now welcomes 10 to 12 participants every week. We are delighted that more people with learning difficulties and autistic participants are joining the group, creating a genuinely mixed-ability community where friendships grow naturally through shared creativity. This year we were especially proud to welcome two young men to the group. Textile crafts are typically seen as for women, but we are used to challenging such assumptions in the name of inclusivity, and both have embraced stitching with enthusiasm, discovering its calming, therapeutic effects. More importantly, they have found a place where they feel accepted, valued and able to contribute. The Stitchers group is about much more than needle crafts; the conversations are as important as the crafted products. It is about building confidence, reducing isolation, creating friendships and showing that everyone has talents to share. **“The Stitchers' group fosters community, camaraderie and conversation. I think it is one of the best ways of bringing people together.”** _**(Nicholas)**_ ## Stitchers group regular, Esta, says: “ _This group has become an important part of my week. I already knew knitting and sewing, but I enjoy coming twice a week because it helps me take my mind off my worries, meet people from different backgrounds, and take part in the lovely activities._ _I have also enjoyed helping with the summer and winter fairs over the past three years to support the charity. If my health were better, I would happily volunteer for even more events. Thank you for making everyone feel so welcome.”_ ## Recent new joiner, Carol, says: “ _I joined about two months ago. What a talented and diverse group of people! I was made welcome and have felt included. Everyone is willing to share their specific skills and talents. It’s great fun!_ 11 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Highlights** ## **London Landmarks Half Marathon** The annual London Landmarks Half Marathon is becoming an important feature of the Wave Hub calendar. It works well for us, being so well aligned with our priorities and objectives: it is a great example of healthy physical activity it is fully inclusive - everyone is able to run at their own pace it is also ideally suited to collaboration and teamworking, both in the preparation and at the event itself it is much more about taking part than winning it is an ideal vehicle for fund raising, both as individuals and collectively, and contributes significantly to our annual income. Our 2025 team consisted of nine runners, with the full range of previous running experience, from regular parkrunners to complete novices. They included two of our staff team, a fitness instructor, job coach, volunteers, friends and family. Between them, thanks to terrific support from others (role modelled by the banner wavers on the day - see photo), they raised an impressive £15,500 for Wave Hub! It was a wonderful day, and everyone who ran and supported had a great time. Thanks, everyone, for joining in! **“I never thought I would run a half marathon - but there you go, I did it! Training together with others from Wave Hub made me believe it was possible”** ## **Wave Hub 2025 LLHM Roll of Honour** Alex Green Conal Galagher Elena Tzaneva George Wrafter Maia Webster Monika Carraro Reece Turkson Saul Wordsworth Richard Chadwick 12 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Personal Stories** ## **Jane Wrafter,** _**fitness trainer**_ Jane Wrafter has taught pilates, fitness and yoga in the local community for 25 years. She first led a class for us as emergency cover at one hour’s notice - that was four years ago, and she has hardly missed a week since! Jane’s class role models inclusivity and social interaction. Literally anyone can join in, regardless of previous experience or ability. She loves inviting everyone in turn to choose a favourite exercise for the whole class to do, and enjoys predicting their choices! **“It’s the highlight of my week. I always feel better when I leave than when I came in”** Jane loves Wave Hub because she finds it to be a community that’s full of love, joy and togetherness, as well as safety and freedom - somewhere without judgement, with no egos, where you can be who you want. It reminds her what’s important in life. ## **Samel Ayeni,** _**volunteer**_ **“I love Wave Hub. It gives me a real chance to learn new things, have fun and make friends.”** Samel, 15, is a student at TreeHouse School in Muswell Hill, where he is studying Maths and English. He has been coming to Wave Hub since the summer of 2024. Samel works in our café as an art assistant, helping with the weekly art classes, gaining valuable experience towards his ambition of one day becoming an art teacher. Working at Wave Hub has helped him increase both his independence and his confidence, as well as providing him with the opportunity to learn new skills. Samel values Wave Hub because it enables him to try new things. And he really likes the cakes! 13 ## **Trustees’ Report** ## **Financial review and policies** Our income for the year amounted to £117,140, while our total expenditure was £102,612, resulting in an operating surplus in the year of £14,528. As at 31 December 2025, Wave Hub’s net assets stand at £62,446, of which the vast majority (£60,404) are unrestricted and available to be used in accordance with our charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. It is our policy to maintain a balance of cash reserves of at least three months' operating expenses, which policy we have maintained successfully throughout the year. At the end of the year, our reserves were sufficient to cover over eight months of regular activities. We are a social enterprise. We use the income generated through our events and donations to further the work of Wave Hub and offer services to our beneficiaries. To enable the widest range of people to attend, and to ensure equal opportunity, Wave Hub events are designed to be affordable. At ticketed events, we offer concessions to people who need them, and free passes to carers of people with learning disabilities. _Note: A summary of our 2025 financial statements is included in this document, on pages 16 and 17. We confirm that the information contained in these summarised financial statements is taken from the independently examined annual accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Launch a Wave Hub Young Leaders programme** Establish a mixed-ability youth leadership and social action programme that empowers young people with and without learning difficulties to become confident leaders, inspire their peers, champion healthier lifestyles and drive positive change in their communities. ## **2. Secure the future of our physical activity events** Secure long term funding to sustain and expand our inclusive physical activity programme. We will encourage more people of all abilities to lead healthier and more active lives by expanding our running club and increasing participation in dance, yoga, pilates, fitness and community walks. ## **3. Increase our visibility within the wider community** Take Wave Hub beyond the café by developing new partnerships, participating in local festivals and community events, and creating more prominent, publicly visible projects. By making our work more visible, we will challenge perceptions of learning difficulties and demonstrate the power of genuine inclusion. ## **4. Expand inclusive work experience and volunteering** Forge new partnerships with schools, colleges and education providers to create more work experience placements and volunteering opportunities for young people with autism, learning difficulties, and other additional needs. Secure the long-term funding needed to meet growing demand, increase capacity and ensure more people can benefit from our inclusive community. 15 ## **Financial Statements Statement of financial activities for the year ended 31 December 2025** 16 ## **Financial Statements** ## **Balance sheet at 31 December 2025** 17 ## **Governance arrangements** ## **Governance and delegated authority** Wave Hub is governed by its Constitution dated 23 January 2017.
