## **Report of the Trustees** 

## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

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 31 December 2022. 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** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The 5% Club exists for the prevention or relief of poverty for the public benefit, of those in need by reason of lack of employable skills, in particular but not exclusively, among the young. It works to deliver these aims as a member organisation consisting of employer organisations, by such means as: 

- Among employers, policymakers and the general public, raising awareness of and support for the benefits of providing "earn and learn"* training programmes to skill/upskill individuals such that they can achieve skilled long-term employment; 

- Enabling and extending best practice of such programmes through a network of members' Human Resources professionals; 

- Providing assistance, information and support to young people and their influencers to encourage and educate them to successfully find, apply for and complete "earn and learn" training programmes; 

- Carrying out and publishing research into "earn and learn" training programmes with a view to increasing their availability, quality and uptake. 

*"Earn and learn" training programmes means: the provision of formal accredited and monitored training for employees to acquire skills and/or qualifications whether as apprentices, graduate trainees or sponsored students within a programme of paid employment.

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Significant activities** 

During 2022 The Club undertook a wide range of activity to promote its aims to make earn and learn opportunities accessible to all, working through our members to reach increasing numbers of take-ups by beneficiaries. Including: 

- Regular updates on The Club website to reflect activities and initiatives of members, demonstrating the benefits of 'earn and learn' to an organisation. 

- Continuing collaboration with the Department for Education (DfE) on their work targeting young people by developing and promoting the value of apprenticeships. DfE personnel were kept informed of work by The Club and its members, via meetings between The CEO and senior officials at the DfE. 

- Active support for the DfE initiative, National Apprenticeship Week, and the Scottish Government, Scottish Apprenticeship Week, ensuring all members of The Club were aware of the programme/resources well in advance, plus PR and social media activity during the two separate weeks.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Policy Activity** 

In March The Club published the latest in its series of Expert Opinions - this time on the Kickstart scheme which closed to new starts on 31 March 2022. 

There was a significant focus on the Apprenticeship Levy during 2022. Early in the year The 5% Club explored the operation of the Levy and the performance of the Department for Education's Funded Apprenticeship Programme through a series of Freedom of Information requests. In April CEO MArk Cameron asked the membership to respond to him with their feedback on the LEvy in preparation for a submission to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. 

In September this work culminated in a comprehensive letter to then Chancellor Rt Hon Kwasi Kwarteng MP, setting out our seventeen recommendations that we would wish to see considered to reform and improve the utilisation of the Apprenticeship Levy. 

## **Partnerships** 

To strengthen The Club's reach and impact a series of partnerships were formally created during 2022 with the following organisations: 

- Youth Employment UK - an organisation which tackles youth unemployment by championing young people, connecting communities and changing the employment landscape 

- The Schools Outreach Company - a leading provider of school outreach services focused on promoting career opportunity, championing diversity, and driving social mobility; this is  achieved by helping employers connect and engage effectively with schools through a national network of offices and career coaches reaching more than 100,000 students every year 

- The Association of Apprenticeships - formed to provide support to apprentices, training providers and employers alike. Apprentices are supported directly through membership of the Apprentice Community (through "AoA Connect"), advice and guidance on their learning (via "AoA Learn") and through networking events, across the UK. 

- The St Martin's Group - a limited membership organisation (of Training Providers, End-Point Assessment Organisations and a small number of large employers) created to support the UK economy by fostering a sustainable, quality-focused and employer-led apprenticeship and skills system 

## **The 5% Club Employer Audit and Awarding of Gold, Silver and Bronze Membership** 

Launched in 2021, The Club continued this accredited level of membership in 2022, with enhanced benefits and prestigious awards of Gold, Silver and Bronze membership. This enhanced level of membership relates to the level of achievement by members against their 5% aspiration in The Club's charter which they sign and then measure annually. 

In its second year 129 members participated in and paid for this new service. One hundred and seven members met the Gold Standard which recognised those who have exceeded their aspiration to have 5% of their workforce in "earn and learn" schemes - Apprenticeships, Graduate Schemes, and eligible Sponsored Students. Fourteen members achieved Silver and eight bronze. 

These enhanced levels of membership provided four major new benefits: 

- Recognisation through the Award of Gold, Silver or Bronze membership; 

- Bespoke Research (delivered in partnership with Highfliers Research) centred on the five themes of: employment; breadth and balance of the "earn and learn" offering; inclusion and social mobility; scheme quality; and plans for future growth; 

-An online Symposium; 

-An Awards Celebratory Event held at the House of Lords in early December, which was attended by the Secretary of State for Education, Gillian Keegan MP. 

By going through this additional accredited audit, members received data which they can use in their ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) reporting, in particular benchmarked data on skills investment and social mobility, diversity and inclusion data.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The Club received donations of £400,005 in the year ended 31 December 2022 (2021: £272,949). 

Expenditure on member services, and associated costs, amounted to £335,177, (2021: £244,800) in the year, and The Club incurred administrative and governance costs of £2,571 (2021: £2,485), giving total expenditure in the period of £337,748 (2021: £247,285). The net surplus for the period was £62,257 (2021: £25,664). 

At 31 December 2022, The Club had total funds of £255,653, (2021: £193,396). This level of funds is in line with the trustees' plans to December 2022, whereby the balance will be utilised over time to support expansion of existing programmes while ensuring reserves are maintained at a prudent level. 

Both income and expenditure are recognized at the point of commitment. 

At the time of writing this report the trustees are satisfied that the charity's assets are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

While the Employer Audit and associated sponsorship are generating new revenue, The 5% Club operation in 2022 continued to rely on the generous support - in kind and/or in financial donations of a small number of patron members. This included the continued secondment from Balfour Beatty of a member of staff to serve as Director of Operations. This enabled the trustees to ensure that the day-to- day administration and compliance of The Club as well as the provision of events, thought leadership reports, surveys and other member services to encourage their earn and learn programmes, were delivered. The trustees would like to thank the following companies for their generous support of The 5% Club during 2021: Accuracy; Balfour Beatty Group plc; Leonardo; Lockheed Martin; MBDA; QinetiQ Group plc; Schneider Electric and WSP. 

## **Principal risks and uncertainties** 

The trustees have considered the major risks to which the charity is exposed and have reviewed those risks and established systems and procedures to manage those risks. A risk register is discussed at the majority of Board meetings and updated according to the current operating environment. The principal risks faced by The Club are the failure to secure additional funds to support its work, failure to maintain relevance with members, and failure to achieve impact through its members, on beneficiaries. Plans are, therefore, closely examined not only for their relevance to our aims, but also their ability to mitigate these risks. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

As well as four Board meetings, The Trustees also held an annual strategy meeting at the extended November Board meeting. 

This provided a forum for Mark Cameron to review the strategy as presented to the Board at its 2021 strategy meeting with recommendations and ambitious targets for 2023. Areas included continuing best practice/networking events, sustaining patron funding and the development of the Employer Audit. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**

## **Report of the Trustees** 

## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Responsibilities of Trustees** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The first directors were appointed for a term of three years and also became the first trustees. New trustees are appointed by existing trustees, by a majority. There must be at least two trustees. Decisions are made by trustees acting as a majority. 

In selecting individuals for appointment as trustees, the trustees have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the charity. 

There were five trustees/directors as at 31 December 2022: Yvonne Baker, David Mercer, Stephen Wardell, Jo Volk and Victoria Scarth (Chair). 

As at 31 December 2022. The 5% Club had two employees. In May 2022 The Club appointed a dedicated Member and Events Manager, Helen Tanner. To ensure compliance across all HR processes The Club outsourced its requirements to the NatWest HR Mentor service. The Club is supported by a full-time Director of Operations, seconded under legal agreement from one of the patron corporate supporters of The 5% Club.

**Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The 5% Club Limited** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The 5% Club Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
