The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records, disclose with reasonable accuracy at
any time the financi31 position of the charity, and enable them to ensure that the financial statements
comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of Seven Up
Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other
irregularities.

Membership of the CIO is restricted to its trustees. There must be at least three tharity trustees, although
there is no maximum number of charity trustees that may be appointed to the CIO. Apart from the first
charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a
properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. In selerting individuals for appointment as charity
trustees, the charity trustees must have regard to the Skills, knowledge and experience needed for the
effective administration of the CIO. Trustees will induct new trustees with a copy of the Constit￿lon and
the CIO'S latest Trustees, Annual Report and statement of accounts.
Decisions are made by simple majority of votes at a meetin8 of trustees or by resolution made in writing or
in electronic form and agreed by all trustee5.
The trustees confirm that due regard has been given to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.
Day-to-day management of the Charivs affairs 15 delegated to the Development Lead. Simbi Folarin.
Objectives and Acti¥ltles
The objectives of the Seven Up Charity are..
For the public benefit. to help children and young people in Birmingham land espetially, but not
exclusively, those who are disabled or who have mental health or other additional needs). in particular
through providing inclusive play, youth and leisure time activities; so as to develop their capabilities,
relationships and experience that they may grow as individuals, flourish and come to fulfil their potential as
full and active members of society.
Achlevements and Perforrnante
Seven Up Charlty continues to offer a range of accessible and inclusive senrices, including the delivery of
alternate Saturday play sessions Itwo per monthl for children aged 5-11 years and youth sesslons for
young people aged 12-25 years, as well as holiday youth programmes and playschemes throughout the
vear.
The after-school provision has been supported with additional funding from the BCC Wraparound Childcare
Grant. This has enabled us to maintain this OFSfED-registered provision for families who are working or
engaged in higher education. We continue to manage a commissioned service at Hamilton School- a Fridav
in-school play session for children whose parents or carers are unavailable to collect them at 1.00 pm.
The development of our 19+ skills-focused session5 continues. Earlier this year, we were informed that this
offer is now included on the BCC Adult Day Opportunities Register.
The 2025-26 year has seen a recovery from the financial challenges of previous years. We entered 2026 in
strong financial position. with our Reaching Communities Grant covering just over 50% of our service
delivery and core costs. Looking beyond 2026, there are still uncertainties on the horizon a5 we navigate an
increasingly competitive funding environment. However. we have increased our fundraising capacity
through the promotlonal work of our Trustees and strategic support from a fundraisin8 specialist.
Our work is strengthened through the relationships, partnerships, and support we receive from Dens of
Equality, Children's Quarter, Hamilton Special School, Spurgeons Charity, ATHAC (Access to Heritage Arts
and Culture), Crick Gardens CIC, and The Hive Jewellery Quarter. We would also like to extend a sincere
thank you to our Trustees for their ongoing commitment, particularly as many are managing difficult
personal circumstances.

We are grateful for the continued support of our main grant funders.. Reachlng Communities, National
Lottery Awards for All, Children's Quarter. and Birmingham Children's Trust. Their funding has enabled the
continuation of our weekend and holiday provision. We have a150 been able to sustain these services
through core cost grant support from the Garfield Westoll Foundation and The Eveson Trust.

Savon Up Charlty
I have examined the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2026 on pages 6 to 9 following which have been
prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out on page 8.
Rg$pgctlve Responslbllftles of Trustees and Examlner
The charivs trustees are r6sponsi￿8 for the preparation of the accounts.
The chariWs tfUSte&s consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act
2011 Ithe Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility lo..
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Diredions given by the Charity Commission (under section
14515llbl of the Charities Act, and
to stale whether particular matters have come lo my attention.
Basls ol Independent Examln8rf5 SLitsment
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An
examination includes a remew of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts
presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the
accounts, and seeking explanations from the truslegs concerning any such matters. The procedures
undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is
given as lo whether the accounts present a 'true and fair, view and the report is limited to those matters sel
cmjt in the stslement below.
Independent Examinerfs Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come lo my attention
1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in. any material respect, the requirem8nts=
to keep accounting records in accordance with sedion 130 of the Ch8ritl8s Act., and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accountbng records and comply with the accounting
requirements of the Charities Acl
have not been mel.. or
2 to which. in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the
accounts to be roached.
