FOREWORD EMILY CalLard Kick Back (My Ends) Project Manager A highLight from this year for me was a visit from Emma Warren, author of Up the Youth Club. Emma reached out after witnessing one of our mentors supporting young people on the tube - moment so powerful it made it into the foreword of her book. She didn't know Wipers at the time; it was the ID badge that led her to us. That moment perfectLy captures what Wipers is about: quiet, consistent exceLlence that speaks for itseLf.

A standout moment of this year was our Family Fun Day in Finsbury Park, deLivered with the MyEnds Kickback Consortium, brought together over 300 Local residents for a day of joy, support and togetherness ending, memorably, with a tug-of-war between the VCS sector and the poLice, (and yes the VCS team won!). Kickback is more than a programme. It is Wipers, commitment in action coordinating community expertise, amplifying young voices and building safer futures. This year,:that mission translated into real impact.

YOUTH VOICE This year marked a significant milestone for the Wipers Youth Advisory Board (YAB), as it became fulLy youth-Led for the first time. CentraL to this development was the active invoLvement of three former members, who stepped into enhanced Leadership roLes as YAB Assistants. In my roLe as Lead faciLitator, I worked cLoseLy with our YAB assistants to offer hands-on, peer-Led support. This included weLcoming new members, supporting the set-up and pack-down of sessions, heLping shape agendas, and ensuring that young peopLe's voices were heard and reflected across the group. Throughout the year, the YAB engaged in a wide range of relevant and timely discussions, incLuding healthy eating, online safety, poLitics, career pathways, media influence, and the impact of artificiaL inteLLigence. These sessions were designed to encourage criticaL thinking, informed decision-making, and meaningful participation, in Line with the group's overarching aim of equipping young peopLe with the skiLLs and confidence to navigate Life with purpose and direction. Juan Sousa-O'CarrolL A key focus was transLating Learning into practicaL outcomes. For exampLe, young people were introduced to tools such as the YUKA app, enabling them to independentLy assess food and cosmetic products and make informed choices about their heaLth. Structured debates were aLso used to strengthen emotional inteLLigence, communication skiLls, and problem-solving abilities.

Huseyin Can Wipers Ambassador / , £?7/￿F _ I have been working as a Youth Ambassador for Wipers Youth for just over 1.5 years now. I had Learned about Wipers through a driving theory course that they had provided and I had been referred to their company after completing it. At first I was quite shy and quiet in front of new faces but right from the start they were amazingly heLpfuL and helped me out. Throughout my time at Wipers I have been abLe to build up my confidence, A year ago I don't think I wouLd've been able to stand up and give a presentation or a speech in front of a group of people but because of Wipers I was able to. Young people from Redbridge Youth Justice Service attend the Fl Drive ELite Go Karting at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after completing The Ether Programme an AQA accredited life skiLLs & personal development course. We have heLd many sessions covering a wide range of topics throughout the year, just a coupLe being things Like financial Literacy and covering worLd events that have happened throughout the year. In these sessions I was abLe to not onLy better myself in a muLtitude of wavs but it aLso helped me keep myself knowledgeable about the world as well. Redbridge Youth Justice Service We successfuLLy deLivered the Ether Programme aLongside a Youth Voice research project in partnership with Redbridge Youth Justice Service. The project created safe, supportive spaces for young people involved in the youth justice system to share their experiences and perspectives on education and their interactions with services. Outside of our weekly sessions we have aLso heLd multiple events aLso including things Like a Work Fair which allows for young people to speak with companies about opportunities they may have not known about before. Grounded in the beLief that young peopLe are experts in their own Lives, the report captured vaLuabLe insights to help Redbridge YJS further develop trauma-informed, chiLd-first approaches that promote equality and address disproportionality. Barrow Cadbury Trust Alongside this work, support from the Barrow Cadbury Trust has enabLed us to expand our Youth Voice programme, investing in Leadership deveLopment, governance and advocacy training so young people can influence poLicy and shape services. Throughout my time at Wipers, I've grown a Lot as a person and picked up vital skiLLs for the world of work. I've also had the chance to be involved in different events and meetings that aim to create reaL change, not just for young people in my area but across wider communities too. And they heLped me pass my driving theory testl Annual Report 2025 - Page 10 Annual Report 2025 - Page 17

LET'S GET TO WORK! KarL DonaLdson Employability Lead Picture right.. Joelle Bruneau fmm the Mason Foundation supporting our trainees on neumdivergent rights as part of the Tymn Leg8cy Pmject In 2025, our empLoyabiLity work continued to focus on opening doors for young people who often face the greatest barriers to work and training. Many of the young peopLe we support are considered high-risk or have complex needs, yet through patience, persistence and strong partnerships we have created meaningful pathways into empLoyment and skiLLs development. A major focus this year has been our CSCS workshops, designed to heLp young people gain the quaLifications and confidence needed to access opportunities within the construction industry. These sessions brought together young people who may not typicaLLy see themseLves entering structured training environments. Through consistent engagement and support, we created spaces where participants couLd develop practical knowledge, build confidence and begin to see new possibilities for their future. Our work has been strengthened through growing reLationships with industry partners incLuding Vinci, Amber Construction, Equans and AD Construction, who have supported our efforts to introduce young peopLe to reaL opportunities within the sector. We are particularly pmud that four young people pmgressed into part-time employment this year as a result of our employability support. In addition, one young person secured a three-month internship with Keywest Plastering, made possible thmugh funding support fmm the Cripplegate Foundation. ALongside this, our Rise & Reach workshops with Keywest Plastering provided participants with speciaList pLastering techniques and hands-on Learning in a trade sector hungry for skiLLed workers. In April we hosted our Community Connections EmpLoyabiLity Event in Finsbury Park, bringing together a wide range of empLoyers incLuding the Royal Air Force, Railsafe Group and ArsenaL FootbaLL CLub, creating opportunities for young people to connect directly with organisations offering training and career pathways.

THE INVINCIBLES PROJECT In 2025, Wipers secured funding from GO! London, Sport England and the BaiLey Thomas CharitabLe Fund to Launch The InvincibLes a specialist mentoring initiative supporting young peopLe with disabilities to access sport, Leisure and physicaL activity across London. For too many young disabled people, the door to their Local Leisure centre can feel closed. Not because they physicaLLy can't enter, but because no one has shown them that these spaces are for them too. The InvincibLes is about changing that perception. Working in partnership with GLL (Better) and Mind, our mentors provide one-to-one support to help young people identify barriers, buiLd confidence and find reaListic pathways into accessibLe sport sessions. Suzana MaruLLi Senior Youth Engagement Worker This includes activities such as swimming and muLtisports programmes, as weLL as creating bespoke opportunities tailored to individual needs. As we move through 2026 and compLete the programme's first-year evaluation, we hope to see these strong LeveLs of engagement and outcomes continue. Our aim is to secure further funding so that this vitaL work can keep growing and supporting more young peopLe. But beyond the statistics, what these incredible young people have taught me is that resilience is a superpower. No matter the chaLLenges they face, their determination to keep trying, keep going and find their own reasons to push forward is truLy inspiring. And that's exactLy what makes them InvincibLe.

SOCIAL IMPACT: INVINCIBLES "It made me feel really comfortable and understood, like I truly belonged there." Before joining the Invincibles programme, I had never tried wheelchair basketball before. My mentor took me to a session with Brixton Ballers and it turned out to be one of the best experiences I've ever had. From the moment we arrived, everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The coaches and players made me feel like part of the team straight away. One of the best moments for me was when the coach asked about my disability and realised we actually have the same one. He shouted "Twinning!" and everyone laughed. It made me feel really comfortable and understood, like I truly belonged there. Getting into the sports wheelchair and playing basketball was amazing. At first it felt a bit strange moving around in the chair while trying to control the ball, but after a while I got the hang of it and started to really enjoy it. Scoring shots and moving around the court made me feel confident and excited. I was able to make new friends and exchange numbers, which was really cool. It felt good meeting other young people who share the same interests. On the way home I told my mentor that I definitely want to keep going even after my Invincibles sessions finish. I'd love to have my own basketball wheelchair one day, just like some of the amazing players there. This experience helped me discover a new passion and gave me so much confidence. I can't wait to go back next week! Inara Jean-Baptiste Annual Report 2025 - Page 22 Annual Report 2025 - Page 23

WE'RE AHEAD OF THE CURVE In 2025, The Wipers Foundation partnered with Paying It Forward Paying It Now CIC to Launch We're Ahead of the Curve (WAOTC) - an innovative tech foundations programme designed to equip young Londoners aged 10-29 with the skiLLs and confidence to thrive in a rapidLy changing digitaL economy. This seven-week programme introduced participants to Ai, programming, machine Learning, big data, cyber security, immersive technoLogy and professionaL development.

Will Everyone Stop Talking About Trauma- Informed Practice! It's Giving Me Trauma! Let's be honest for a moment. If you spend any time around professionals in youth work, education, social care or the criminal justice system, YOU'LL hear the phrase 'trauma-informed practice, everywhere. It appears in conferences, strategy papers, funding bids and training sessions. At this point it's become one of those phrases that everyone says and everyone nods at. But sometimes it feeLs Like not everyone reaLLy understands what it means. And the irony is that for peopLe who have actuaLLy Lived through trauma, hearing it used so casuaLLy can feel a bit exhausting. Because talking about trauma and understanding trauma are two very different things. For some peopLe, trauma is theoreticaL. Something you Learn about in a training session or read about in a poLicy document. For others, it's Life experience. It shapes how you see the worLd, how you trust people, how you react to stress and how you buiLd relationships. As someone who experienced real trauma growing up - from childhood through adolescence and into early adulthood - I've become a strong advocate for trauma-informed practice actuaLly meaning something. Not just a sLogan or a buzzword, but something practitioners genuinely understand and embed in how they work. Jay OLorunda Senior Youth Engagement Worker & Trauma SpeciaList Because the reality is that many systems designed to support people don't always operate with trauma in mind. We see it across the criminal justice system, the care system and education. Systems that shouLd be buiLt around empathy can sometimes feeL cold or rigid. Instead of helping peopLe recover from trauma, they can unintentionaLLy retraumatise people. The Three Types of ACES CITIPS Over the years I've seen many young people navigating Life while carrying emotionaL weight that most peopLe never see. They're simply surviving, getting through the day, managing feelings they don't fuLLy understand and reacting to situations without aLways knowing why. (Adverse Childhood Experiences) ABUSE NEGLECT HOUSEHOLD DYSFUNCTION Physical Physical ental Illness For me, things started to shift when I began to understand something simple but powerfuL: what happened yesterday shapes how we show up today. When I began reflecting on my own experiences and recognising how they influenced reactions and decisions, it was transformational. It wasn't about bLaming the past - it was about understanding it.

That's why I was excited when Wipers began working with the Community Trauma-lnformed Practice Project (C-TIPS) partnership between IsLington CAMHS and the London Borough of Islington. C-TIPS heLps organisations understand the impact of compLex deveLopmentaL trauma and how muLtipLe experiences of adversity can shape behaviour, emotional deveLopment and survival instincts. Sixteen signs of'Trauma Exposure Response, Grandiosity Feellng hel and hope ess A sense that one can never do enough Addictions Inability to empathise J¥t Hypervigilence Our whole team received trauma-informed training, but the work goes beyond a single course. Wipers has committed to a whoLe-systems approach, with two years of ongoing support from the C-TIPS team. Through that process we carried out a needs assessment to identify which eLements of trauma-informed practice we most needed to prioritise for our organisation and the young people we support. Adapted from Lipsky and Burk.. Trauma Stewardship, 2009 Diminished creativitiy Anger and cyniclsm Secondary and vicarious trauma for professionals Inability to embrace complexity Fear Six months in, we're already seeing the benefits. One thing that quickly became cLear was the importance of supporting staff weLLbeing. Working cLoseLy with young peopLe who have experienced significant adversity can be emotionaLLy demanding, and if we want trauma-informed systems, we aLso need to support the peopLe delivering the work how we come to do this work, how we are affected by it, and how we make sense of and learn from our experiences" Minlmlslng Guilt Chronic exhaustion/ phyical ailments Sense of persecution && Lipsty and Burk."

These conversations help us recognise the impact But when it's done properLy, it's much more than that. It's about recognising that of vicarious trauma and ensure staff feel supported rather behaviour has context, that people's actions are often shaped by experiences we may never fuLly see, and that systems respond with curiosity and compassion rather than than overwhelmed. judgement. ALongside this, we're deveLoping a trauma tooLkit for chiLdren and young peopLe, designed in muLtimedia formats so it's accessible and engaging. The aim is to give young people practical tooLs to understand trauma and how it might affect their thoughts, feeLings and relationships. If we can move beyond the buzzwords and start embedding these principles into how we work every day, trauma-informed practice becomes something far more meaningfuL than a phrase. It becomes a way of working that genuineLy changes Lives. Often they have Little understanding of how their past experiences shape their behaviour, their relationships and their sense of identity. Life doesn't pause while they figure that out. Some of those same young people go on to become parents themseLves, often at a very young age, stiLL trying to make sense of their own experiences while raising children of their own. Without understanding how trauma influences behaviour and relationships, it becomes incredibly difficult to break those cycLes. So yes, trauma-informed practice gets taLked about a Lot. Sometimes it can feel Like just another professionaL buzzword. Annual Report 2025 - Page 28 Annual Report 2025 - Page 29

THE IGNITION PROJECT DRIVING FUTURES, UNLOCKING POTENTIAL Empowering young people into work, independence and opportunity The Ignition Project is one of Wipe s Youth's flagship empLoyabiLity initiative designed to heLp young people develop the skiLLs, confidence and independence needed to move into education, training and empLoyment. The programme combines empLoyabiLity workshops, workplace exposure and funded driving support to address some of the practicaL barriers that prevent young people from accessing opportunities. For many young people, passing a driving test represents a major miLestone symbolising independence, responsibiLity and opportunity. A Licence can significantly expand access to empLoyment, training and community engagement, particuLarLy for roLes where traveL and flexibility are essential. Through partnerships with empLoyers and industry specialists, participants gain exposure to reaL-worLd working environments across sectors including construction, housing and facilities management, digital technology, agricuLture, plastering, bike mechanics and environmentaL sustainabiLity. These experiences help young peopLe buiLd practicaL employabiLity skiLLs while strengthening confidence, resiLience and communication. £EARNER DR/VER Participants benefit from mentoring and empLoyabiLity coaching, funded driving support, accredited training opportunities and meaningfuL workplace experience aLL designed to support Long-term pathways into sustainabLe empLoyment and further education.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE WIPERS FOUNDATION

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Wipers Foundation (the charity) for the year ended 30 September 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Ac t 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.

Independent examiner's statement

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

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 that in any material respect:

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 financial statements to be reached.

THE WIPERS FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

The Wipers Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation..

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's Charitable Incorporated Organisation Foundation, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". 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.

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.

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.

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

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

20% Straight Line

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 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.

1.8 Creditors and Provisions

Creditors and Provisions are recognised when the charity has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the charity will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in net income/(expenditure) in the period in which it arises.

1.9 Debtors

Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, esti mates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
