THE BEN RAEMERS FOUNDATION

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial position Overview

The Foundation is pleased to report that, thanks to the ongoing generosity of individuals and key industry
partners, it remains in a strong financial position, enabling continued support for the skateboarding
community. At the end of 2024, the charity held £346k in cash reserves, which will be used to deliver its core
objectives over the coming years.

Income and Expenditure

The charity's income is principally down to donations from individuals and corporate supporters within the
skateboarding industry. In 2024, total receipts, including restricted grants, amounted to £104k, matched by
expenditure of £104k.

Expenditure focused on advancing the Foundation's mission, including media and content production,
counselling sessions, events, and training programs delivered throughout the year.

The Trustees are confident that the Foundation has adequate reserves and resources to sustain its
operations for the foreseeable future. The Foundation's reserves policy is to maintain at least six months of
operational costs, a target it significantly exceeded as of 31 December 2024.

Risks

The Trustees have reviewed the major risks facing the charity and are satisfied that they are appropriate and
proportionate for an organisation of this size.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The Foundation is a charitable incorporated organisation governed by a constitution. The trustees are
responsible for overall direction and decision-making.

THE BEN RAEMERS FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's constitution, the
Charities Act 2011 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 financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008
only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the
Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the
Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since
been withdrawn.

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 freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial
instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

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.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the
funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation
committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be
required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is
accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost
related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have
been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its
estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings -  25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment -  25% on reducing balance

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the
trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity.
Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted
purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial
statements.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure created on: 9/3/2025 2:44:48 PM Parties agreed to: Paul Underwood

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE

From time to time, Morris Crocker Limited (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system.

Getting paper copies

At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.

Withdrawing your consent

If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below.

Consequences of changing your mind

If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents from us.

All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically

Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures, authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures electronically from us.
