## **ROBERT F. KENNEDY HUMAN RIGHTS UK LIMITED**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**_
## **Activities**
During the reporting period, RFK Human Rights UK Limited continued to advance its charitable objectives of promoting human rights education for the public benefit throughout England and Wales. The charity's activities centred around the delivery and expansion of its flagship "Speak Truth to Power" programme, which provides comprehensive human rights education resources to schools and communities.
## **Educational Programme Development**
The charity significantly expanded its educational offerings by developing new content for Key Stages 1 and 2, ensuring age-appropriate human rights education across primary school years. In response to contemporary challenges facing young people, new programme modules were created addressing violence against women and girls, and online misogyny, demonstrating the charity's commitment to addressing current social issues through a human rights lens.
A comprehensive teacher training portal was established, featuring six training videos to support educators in starting to deliver human rights education effectively. These resources were designed to align with existing literacy and oracy curriculum requirements, facilitating seamless integration into school programmes.
## **Community Engagement and Public Education**
The charity strengthened its community presence through strategic partnerships with public institutions. A newly developed partnership Greater Manchester Libraries network resulted in Human Rights Day exhibitions across 3 library branches, extending the charity's reach to diverse community audiences. These exhibitions featured interactive elements, including soap boxes, placards, and poster displays, many of which libraries requested to maintain into 2025.
Community workshops were developed, including creative placard-making sessions for school children, where participants explored human rights themes and developed advocacy skills. The charity also participated in community events such as the Fun Palaces initiative at Longsight Library and Learning Centre, alongside organisations including Save the Children and the National Football Museum.
## **Digital Platform Development**
Substantial investment was made in digital infrastructure to enhance programme delivery. The charity's School Zone platform was expanded and refined, incorporating automated email systems for improved subscriber engagement. A comprehensive brand toolkit was developed to ensure consistent visual identity across all communications and materials.
The charity's website underwent significant enhancement, with new content management systems enabling more effective distribution of educational resources. Social media engagement was strengthened through the production of articles responding to current events from a human rights perspective, including pieces on the Olympic Games' political neutrality and the erosion of women's rights in Afghanistan.
## **Publications and Resource Development**
The charity published the "Illustrated Universal Declaration of Human Rights," a groundbreaking educational resource combining artistic interpretation with human rights education. This publication was distributed free of charge to schools and community organisations, demonstrating the charity's commitment to accessible education.
Building on this success, the charity developed proposals for a second publication focusing on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, designed to engage 22 different artists in illustrating the 45 articles addressing children's rights.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**_
## **Partnership Development and Geographic Expansion**
Strategic partnerships were established and renewed to extend the charity's geographic reach. A partnership with the South East Wales Education Achievement Service was explored, with possible plans for a pilot programme launching in January 2025, including consideration of Welsh language translations, all discussed.
The charity renewed its partnership with the Comino Foundation North West branch and continued to facilitate school engagement days.
## **Public Benefit**
The decisions and actions of individuals collectively shape our society's reality. Human rights serve as a crucial framework, encapsulating people's fundamental rights and interests for the public benefit. Our programs raise awareness of human rights and foster a culture where individuals and organizations actively work to make these rights a reality. This work has a clear public benefit, offering immediate and tangible benefits to individuals and, as the public comprises individuals, also ensuring a collective benefit from secured human rights.
Moreover, the wider community benefits from the perception that everyone's fundamental rights are being protected, even if this benefit is less tangible. This perception justifies treating the promotion of human rights as a charitable purpose. The trustees of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights UK are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and consistently prioritize it in all aspects of the charity's work.
## **Achievements and Performance**
The reporting period demonstrated significant growth and impact across all areas of the charity's operations, with measurable increases in engagement, reach, and educational delivery.
## **Educational Impact and School Engagement**
The charity achieved a 10% increase in School Zone account creation during the fourth quarter, providing up to 3,000 additional pupils with access to human rights education resources. High school sign-ups increased by 13.3%, whilst primary school engagement grew by 4%, indicating strong demand across all educational levels.
Workshop programmes demonstrated exceptional community interest, with all 50 available places for placardmaking workshops filled within hours of announcement. These sessions directly resulted in two new schools, representing approximately 2,000 students, joining the Speak Truth to Power programme, with three additional teachers engaging with the online portal.
Notably, the charity achieved its first community organisation sign-up through a Church of England institution, demonstrating new avenues of interest beyond traditional educational settings.

## **ROBERT F. KENNEDY HUMAN RIGHTS UK LIMITED**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**_
## **Reserve policy**
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months’ expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. As the charity is still in its development phase and because of the irregular nature of the spending, the charity aims to achieve this target of reserve level in next 1-2 years.
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 the major risks. The key priority for the charity - in risk mitigation as an early stage charity - is the development of sustainable and varied sources of income over the next two to three years and implementing a model of delivery that can be adjusted to the resources available.
We have continued to reduce or delay all outgoings to the minimum for continued operation. Spending towards speculative revenue generation has been halted (e.g. we have paused working with a consultancy to produce applications to funding bodies until we know the funding bodies are resuming making grants).
Any new spend towards programmes, beyond the existing consultancy agreements, can only be committed to
once we know additional funding or income is confirmed.
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 the major risks.
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity is a private company limited by guarantee without share capital.
The charity is governed by its Articles of Association and an Affiliate Agreement with its affiliate organisation, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights based in the USA.
The trustees were appointed to cover a range of skills and areas of guidance and expertise including; Education, Human Rights, Charity & Fundraising, Development, Communications and the Business & Investment Community.
Further details around recruitment and appointment: all potential new trustees are identified by the Board (working to principles and requirements for good and equitable governance and diversity), interviewed by multiple Board members and due diligence is conducted before a recommendation is put to the full Board to vote on. All trustees are join with full sight of our Role of the Trustee policy.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
ROBERT F. KENNEDY HUMAN RIGHTS UK LIMITED is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 82 St Johns Street, London, EC1M 4JN.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations 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 deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
- Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
- Costs of raising funds comprise of the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose.
- Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
- Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Computers
33% SL
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.9 Financial instruments**
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## **1.10 Employee benefits**
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
