Governance. Structure and Management
Governance. The Governing Scheme for the AAC Charity was agreed on 14 Jun
19 and sealed on 9 Jul 19. coming into operation as a CIO on 1 Oct 19. The Amy Air
Corps Charity supersedes the previous schemes of the Army Air Corps Fund (1072126)
and its predecessors.
The Charty began operating as a CIO to provide the charity, its Trustees and agents
with better legal protection and to give it the ability to hold property and to employ siaff.
should there be a need in the future. A review of g0Veman￿ practi￿8 conducted in
201012011 confirmed that sound prO￿sSeS and praCtI￿S were in pla￿ in relation to
prevention of fraud and effective delivery. Those processes and praCtI￿S continue and are
reviewed each year. The Trustees are regularly alerted to the dangers of complacency and
maintain a rolling review of the subject.
All Trustees and non-executive members of the AAC Committee re￿1ve inslruclions
and referen￿ d￿uMentS relevant to their role, including audited financial reports, minutes
of meetings. the scheme agreed with the Charity Commission and underpinning inslruclions
directly related to the Charity and its activities. They are also referred to the published
Charity Commission guidance for Trustees. Opportunities to access external training for
Trustees are also advertised. The objects of the Charity and the duties of the Committee are
highlighted at each meeting. Members present are invited to declare any interests that may
have a bearing on their objective decision making. Known and related interests are
registered and held in the Regimental Headquarters.
10.
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees. Annual Report and the
financial statements in accordan￿ with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting
Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The law applicable
lo 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
Registered Charity No 1184333
Page 2 of 10

the incoming resources and application of resources of the charty for that period. In
preparing these financial statements. the Trustees are required to:
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them Consistently.
Observe the melhcrfjs and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102).
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject
to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
Prepare the financial statements on the going con￿rn basis unless it is
inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounling records that disclose
with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial posrtion of the Charty and enable them
to ensure that the financial statements cclnply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charty
(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 tsking reasonable
steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
12.
Structure. The structure of the Army Air Corps Charity Twstee Board and tF
supporting Committee is set within Army Air Corps instruclions. The board is small enough
to be effective, large enough lo be representalive and authoritative enough for the
responsibilities laid upon it. The structure is effective, while being diverse enough to ensure
a spread of views and experIen￿. The Amy Air Corps Committee also has the responsibilty
for reviewing and upholding the traditions, customs, history and heritage of the Corps.
13.
The principal Trustees of the Charity are appointed mainly as eX-Off￿10 by virtue of
experience and position held within the organisation. Others are co-opted members in order
to provide breadth and diversity. The majorty of the ex-officio Trustees either have
experien￿ on other boards or have or have had management responsibilities for other funds
through their military appointments. though formal Trustee training is provided where
required. The Charity has an Investment Sub-committee (ISC) appointed to manage
invested funds with members of the ISC appointed to the board of Trustees. The
Trustees include the Head of Ami for the Amy Air Corps under the appointment of Colonel
Army Air Corps, the Commanders from the main Army Air Corps Gommunities and
representative unit commanders. The voluntary Trustees are drawn from the serving and
retired communities. Additional members may be drawn onto the Committee as non-voting
subject matter experts and representatives as required. This ensures that the Trustees have
sufficient knowledge, experience and levels of representation to make decisions as well as
ensuring that the Corps Committee is well advised and represented. Though some of the
Trustee positions are tied to appointments wrthin the Army Air Corps they are voluntary: an
Registered Charity No 1184333
Page 3 of 10

individual holding a specific appointrnent with the Amy Air Corps may opt not to take up the
related appointment on the Army Air Corps Trustee Board. Non-voting obsep4ers from
serving members of the Amiy Air Corps may also be invited lo attend meetings from time to
time.
14.
Management. In order to ensure that the Charity's objects can be met appropriately
its funds are allocated into either restricted, unrestricted or designaled funds. These are
Clarified in detail in notes to the a￿oUnt$ at Enclosure 2 to this report. Committee meetings
are advertised in advance to the serving and veteran communities with invitations to submit
items for discussion. The Trustees meet fomially in Committee ￿lce each year. usually in
the Spring and Autumn. The ability to communicate out of committee enables swift decision
making when there is need. The financial activities, processes and procedures for the
Charity are reviewed at each Spring meeting. Financial authority levels, delegalions and
expenditure forecasts are also authorised then by the Trustees. The Charity's accounts are
audited by an external auditor at each financial year end in March with those accounts
providing the basis for this report and its submission. The audit report is reviewed by the
Trustees and other committee members and is available to Amy Air Corps personnel
through their units. Meeting minute5 and an annual report on the financial activities of the
Amy Air Corps Charity is also published in the Army Air Corps, Newsletter, Hawkeye, and
the Army Air Corps Joumal. Publicalion of the Charty's periodic activity is now circulated
more frequently by using the Corps, Communication channels.

Summary of main achievements of the Charity during the year 2024-2025
17.
The Charty has met its objects in the last year by:
Making individual benevolen￿ grants of £74,689. This figure is set against
an initial budget of £78,000. The overall figure granted is more than that granted in
the previous year against a similar number of cases. This is indicative of ever
increasing costs and complexty in benevolen￿ support with some requirement to
assist beneficiaries where statutory provision has been lacking. A £20,000 grant
was also made to the Army Benevolent Fund in order to support Cases not directly
seen by Ihe AAC Charity.
Granting £140,000 to support Amiy Air Corps Sport and Advenlurous training
participation for serving personnel.
Granting £5.000 to A4C veterans, groups to support outreach and social
activities to collectively assist those groups in the maintenance of cohesion.
Making Good and Benefit grants of £10,855 to units via Iheir Commanders to
improve the morale and wellbeing of personnel in units where public funds cannot
do so. These grants are enhan￿d by similar from the Headquarters Officers,
Warrant Officers, and Sergeants, Messes.
Granting £3,938 to support Commemorative and Remembrance events in
the UK and overseas.
Funding Corps level Awards and their presentation ￿reMOnieS that
celebrate Suc￿ss. Total funds committed were £13,782.
The Service Transition Cell is now at full operating capabilty has helped the
Charity to identify and assist those leaving or who have recently left Ihe Servi￿ either

Financial Review
18.
General. The Trustees review the Charity's finances al each meeting and at year
end. The principal source of funding for the Charity aclivity is drawdown of income from
investment alongside the voluntary contributions of the serving AAC community2 The ISC
is appointed by the Trustees to manage investments for growth in order to support annual
aclivty while retaining funds to cover future risks. Advi￿ is readily available to allow the
Trustees the flexibility to use investments to meet need as required.
19.
Voluntary contributions. Voluntary contributions are paid into to the Charity's
General Purpose Fund from the serving community through the Day's Pay Scheme (DPS).
Contributions are based on rank. with Offi￿rS and Senior NCOS adding additional funds to
their respective Headquarters Messes as restricted funds. Army Air Corps Reserves Officers
and soldiers are also invited to contribule to the charity through the DPS but at a pro-rata
rate based on the amount of days they ser¥e compared lo their Regular Amiy counterparts.
The AAC'S serving communty is briefed on the Charity and its activities when they first join
the Corps where they are invited to contribute if they wish to. Further updates are also
provided al other points during their training and careers. The majority of serving personnel
now contribute voluntarily to the Charity with only a small minority electing not to do so. The
reduction in the workforce numbers in the Corps over re￿nt years has had an effect on this
income stream as there are now fewer serving members making voluntary contributions.
20.
Investments. Dividends, interest and profit from the Amiy Air Corps Charlty's
investments are used to help fund activities. It has previously been Ihe practice to reinvest
this income within the investment portfolio to support growth. The Trustees have however
directed that income from invesknenl now be Iransferred to the General Purpose Fund
(GPF) lo mitigate for the increased demand on the Charity against the reduction in income
from voluntary contributions and an increasing benevolen￿ demand. The resulting
investment policy is to aim for growth with an assured annual income, coupled to the ability
to draw on investrnents for forecasted projects.
21.
Donations and legacie8. There are periodic donations and some regular donations
to the Charity. Where a significant donation or legacy is received it is the practice to allocate
those funds to a specific project so that the donation is recognised and recorded.
22.
Funds grantsd by others. The Glider Pik)t Regiment Association was disbanded in
2016. In 2013 they requested that their small benevolent fund was administered on their
behalf by the Army Air Corps with funds transferred into the then A4C Fund (now Charity).
These funds were held as designated funds with Christmas grants distributed through the
Army Air Corps to nominated widows of the Regiment's veterans suffering hardship and
need. The ArmyAir Corps has also utilised GPRA funds to provide an enduring mainlenance
2 Through the Army's Days Pay Scheme debited from salary

contract for the GIKler Pilot Regiment Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum and to
contribute to other rernembrance projects. The Army Air Corps Charity Trustees have
subsequently agreed to transfer the small GPR fund balance into the overall AAC Charity
GPF but will continue lo provide for GPR veterans and eligible dependants until it is clear
that the need no longer exists or transferred funds are exhausted.
Risks
23.
The Trustees see the following as risks to the Charity being able to meet its objects:
A reduction in income from voluntsry contributions by either individual choice
or by a reduction in the size of the AAC'S workforce that might be brought about by
any future structural changes directed by the Anny.
A reduclion in the retum on investments through poor perfomiance orthe need
to draw down on the capital invested to meet need.
Mismanagement of funds.
The withdrawal of MOD Workfor￿ and infrastructure provision.
Changes to the Day's Pay Scheme distribution by the MOD.
24.
The Trustees have mitigated the risks by:
Regular review of investment performancethrough the ISC and retaining funds
for enduring future charitable activity.
Encouraging the serving officers and soldiers lo contribute to the Charity
through the DPS, principally by making them aware of the Charity and the benefits it
offers them, both in and out of servi￿.
A developing plan. to be implemented in FY 2025-26. to establish a means of
making voluntary contributions, specifically for welfare and benevolence, for the
AAC'S veteran communty.
A stringent set of control measures for agreeing financial expenditure, making
payments as well as routine oversight checks and an annual audit of accounts.
J Particularly from the more junior cohort which continues lo be affected in the greatest measure by cost of
living increases.
Registered Charity No 1184333

Financial reserves policy
25.
£250,000 is required as annual investrnent drawdown in order to meet the current
and projected activities of the Charty. This dictates an investment portfolio with an
expected 5 % annual return. Should that annual return fall then an increased investrnent
portfolio would be required or a review and adjustment of the Charity's operations. It is
therefore the Trustees, policy to maintain the overall fund value at circa £12mn4 allowing,
where required and possible, some investrnent accumulation to mitigate against inflation
increases or as yet unseen increases in demand for the Charty's support. The overall
value also all0v￿ for committed restricted funds of £263k, designated funds of £182k and
f￿e reserves of £800k.
26.
The invested funds remaining at current levels mitigates risk and ensures available
funds to support. in perpetuty and in line with the Charity's objects, those that serve, will
seNe or have served in the AAC, including eligible dependents. Should any of the risks to
the Charity be realised. an irreducible minimum of circa £7mn in investments would be
required simply to support beneficiaries and cover running costs of the Charity at the
lowest levels, including some workforce funding should current arrangements and MOD
support change. Should the AAC ￿ase to exist as an organisation within the Army
potential beneficiaries will always remain.
27.
Trustees have agreed that Ihe previous free reserves level of £400.000 was on the
conseNative side and have agreed to increase lo this to £800,000 this year noting the
points made above; the increasing benevolence demand and reducing MOD support to the
serving community in some areas. This figure not only allows for immediate coverage of
up to two years of commitments at current levels or the funds could be made available for
a shorter temi larger scale project in support of the Charty's objects.
Future planning
28.
The Charity will Continue to follow its objectives detailed previously in this report.
29.
The funds set for the production and publication of an authoritative history of the Army
Air Corps book will not be fully expended once the second volume is published in Q1 of
2026. The TrUSt￿S have agreed to explore the relocation of the AAC memorial within the
National Memorial Arboretum as a suitable lasting legacy alongside the book to those who
contributed the funds. Funds have been committed to support a bi or triennial gathering of
past and present members of the AAC and the wider Anny aviation community with the next
event scheduled for Summer 2027. Funds are now being set aside for this and other future
anniversary events.
30.
The funds agreed for the AAC'S participation in World War Two 80th commemorations
in Summer 2024 are likely to be last of such larger scale events for the foreseeable fijture.

31.
The Charity has supported the continued use of the Military App, Eagle Connect as
means of communicating with the Charty's contributors and beneficiaries., the past and
present members of the AAC. Commitment and reSoUr￿S remain for the traditional means
of communication such as newsletter and joumal. Any savings made from a transfer to more
electronic communications are still not expected to be fully realised before the end of 2025.
32.
The Trustees continue to monitor and to examine the domestic income and
expenditure against the in-year budget as a means of intelligent forecasting. Despite some
fluctuations they believe that demands for welfare and charitable support across the serving
and retired communty will continue to rise. That expenditure includes the traditional
benevolen￿ in temis of the relief of those in need. It also embraces the positive effects on
morale and well-being of proactive expenditure on sports and adventurous training, welfare
projecls and similar activities within the communty. They are also alert to the continuing
negative effects of austerty measures in society and of changes within the Armed Forces
themselves, not leasl of which are the increased readiness cycles and training deployments.
All of these factors dictate that there will be a continuing need to take income from
investment in order to support the charitable objects and that investment income will be the
principal sour￿.
The Trustees will routinely examine the growth, rna1ntenan￿ and use of ils reserves
against medium and long tem needs and risks.
Public benefit statsment
35.
The Charty supports those in need both serving in the AAC and its fomer members,
their families and dependents. Further support to the serving community through good and
benefrt financial grants enhan￿S morale and wellbeing thus enhances military efficiency,
giving benefrt to the Ministry of Defence and therefore the wider Public and the Nation. The
Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charty Commission Guidan￿ on Public
Benefrt when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

inion
We have audited the financial statements of Amiy Air Corps Charity (the 'charitable company,) for
the year ended 318t March 2025 which comprise Statement of Financial Activiti8S, the Balance Sheet,
the Cash Flow Statement and noles to the financial statements, including signrficant accounting
policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable
law and United Kingdom Accounting Stsndards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom

In our opinion the financial statements..

and of its incoming resources and application of resources, in¢luding ils incorne and
expenditure, for the year then ended-,
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally A¢¢ept8d
Accounting Practice; and
have been prepared in accordanGe with th8 requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for o
inion
We conducted wr audit in accordance with Intemational Standards on Auditing {UK) IISAS (UKI)
and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of
the charitable company in accordan￿ with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of
the financial staternenls in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have fvlfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit
8vidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Concluslons relatin

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concem
basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not Identified any material uncertainties relating to
events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may casl significant doubt on the charitabla
company's ability to continue as a going Gon¢ern for a period of at least ￿e1ve months from when
the financial staternents are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of thetrustees with ￿Spect to going cOn￿M a
described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other infomiatlon
The other information comprises the infomiation included in the truste88 annual report, other than
the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other
information contained within th& annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not
cover the other infomation and, except to the extént otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do
not expres5 any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other infomiation and, in doing so, consider whether the othèr
information is materially inconsistent with the financial stalements or our knowledge obtained in the
course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material
inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to detemine whether this gives
rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If. based on the work we have
Enclosure 1 Page 1 of 3

performed. we conclude thal the￿ is a material misstatement of this other inforrnation, we are
required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are re
uFred to re ort b exce tion
We have nothing to report in respect of th8 following matters in relation to which the Charities
(Accounts Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to ￿port to you rf, in our opinion..
the infomiation gNen in the trustees. report is inconsistent in any material re$pact wlth the
financial statements. or
sufficient accounting records have not been kept., or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records. or
we have not received all the infomiation and explanations we require for our audit.
Res
nsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees. responsibilities statement set out on page 2, 3 4 the
trustees a￿ responsib18 for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that
they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees detemine is necessary to
enable th8 pr8paration of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due
to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable
company's ability to continue as a going concem. disclosing, as applicable, rnatters related to going
¢on¢em and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate
the dpritable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic attemalive but to do so.
Auditor res
nsibilltles for the audit of the financlal statèments
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in
accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurancè about whether the financial statements as a
whole are free from material mi55taternent, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can attse from fraud or error and are Considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expe¢ted to Influen￿ the economic
decisions of users laken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and ￿gUlations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect materral misstatements in
respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting
irregularities, including fraud is detailed below..
As part of an audtt in acGordan¢e with ISAS (UKI, exercise professional judgement and maintain
professional scepticism through the audit. We also..
1. Assessed the susceptibility of the entity's financial statements to material mi$statem8nt,
including how fraud may occur.
2. Held di5¢ussions with thè client regrading their F)olicies and pro¢edur88 on compliance with
laws and regulations.
3. Held disCU5sion8 Wlth the client regarding their policies and procedures on fraud risks,
including knowledge of any actual suspected or alleged fraud.
We consider the entity's controls effective in identifying fraud. W8 do not ￿nSIder there to be
significant difficulty in detecting irregularities.
Enclosure 1 Page 2 of 3

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,
including those leading to a rnaterial misslatement in the financial statements or non-complian
with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed
from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. as we will be less likely to
become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularitie5
occurring due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion,
omission or misrepresentation.
A further dèscription of our responsibilities is available on the FRC'S website
