Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 December 2024
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Build Studios aims to inspire people about the built environment through collaboration and learning. The charitable objects are set out for the public benefit.
The objects are as follows:
For the public benefit:
A. To act as a resource for young people up to the age of 30 living in England by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of educational and other activities, particularly but not exclusively on the themes of the built environment, architecture, design, construction, town planning, development, urban management, business and entrepreneurial skills and related disciplines, as a means of:
i) advancing in life and helping young people by developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals;
ii) advancing education;
iii) relieving unemployment.
B. To promote the efficiency and effectiveness of charities and the effective use of charitable resources by providing charities (with a preference for those involved with the subject areas specified at A above) with office and/or meeting space on a non-commercial basis.
We deliver on our objectives by providing careers education and enrichment programmes within schools, including our flagship enrichment programme with Oasis Academy Southbank and sector themed events to develop young people's skills and understanding of issues impacting on the built environment. Through the co-working space operated by our trading arm Build Workspace, we have curated a community of built environment practitioners. We use this network to recruit volunteers to speak with students or provide workshop content for young people on the varied professions and skills in the built environment. We also support other charities working in a similar capacity to us to facilitate workshops and opportunities for young people. Our support to charities extends to the provision of free or heavily subsidised use of our space, including fixed desks and use of the events space.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activities
In delivering our public benefit and social impact in 2024, Build Studios continued to develop our education and outreach activities for young people with an interest in the built environment sector.
Built environment careers enrichment.
Build Studios delivered an enrichment programme with all Y7 students at Oasis Academy Southbank to learn about the range of careers in the built environment sector. New content was developed that introduced the concept of the sustainable city and designing spaces for communities. Visits were also arranged from volunteer professionals to talk about their work in the sector.
Number of attendees: 120 students
Number of sessions: 10
Following interest generated through an architecture presentation to school pupils last year, we developed a Digital Design project for VI Form students. The project ran over four weeks and introduced them to OpenBIM and digital design. The students designed a scheme in Archicad with input from various professionals, including a developer, planner, engineer and construction manager.
Number of attendees: 11 students
Number of sessions: 4
Alternative Practice
Following its successful launch in 2023, Build Studios significantly grew Alternative Practice, a new programme of events and activities for students and young workers. Alternative Practice is a community of young workers and students that are interested in challenging the boundaries of traditional built environment discipline. The network grew considerably from an initial gathering of 36, to an active group of 105 active participants. Three events were held on themes directed by the group, including the future of transport, the future of work and how to participate in a sustainable city.
Number of attendees: 93
Number of volunteer speakers: 11
Making Space for Women
Build Studios continued its successful collaboration with WeAreWaterloo, the Business Improvement District for the Waterloo area, to deliver a panel discussion exploring the protest origins of the International Women's Day movement. Featuring an inter-generational panel of women at different stages in their careers, the event explored emerging areas of protest in the built environment and the importance of equitable development.
Number of attendees: 37
Affordable space for charities

Report of the Trustees
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
In 2024 Build Studios provided desk space for one charity worker in the built environment sector, alongside making meeting room and event space available free of charge for other non-built environment specific charities. It also provided five free desks for work experience and internship placements.
Volunteers
It is a condition of the provision of non commercial space at Build Studios that the individuals assist with our other charitable activities, particularly supporting our careers enrichment work and outreach work.
Sixteen volunteers participated in our charitable activities in 2023, recruited from the workspace as well as our wider networks. Their support included presenting to young people about their jobs and career paths and speaking at our outreach and public facing events.
Our volunteers are briefed about safeguarding issues with young people and are always accompanied throughout their visit to our partner schools or other sessions in line with our policies. All member of the Build Studios team that work with young people in schools have full DBS clearance.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The charity's accounts show a steady financial position for the year and a small year-end surplus. In its third year of operation, the charity has focused on further refining and clarifying the systems in place to manage the relationship with the trading subsidiary.
Build Studios' funds for the year in question comprised a single, restricted, donation for capital improvements to the charity's premises. The remainder were unrestricted funds generated by its trading subsidiary, Build Workspace or its own hire fees for use of meeting rooms.
A fundraising and growth plan has been developed for the charity to support our efforts in generating additional project funding from charitable grant giving bodies and other sources of funding, such as the local authority.
Build Studios' balance sheet shows a reserve of £76,784. The company has now met its target essential reserves (see reserves policy) of £25,717. The reserves policy was amended in February 2025 to reflect a 3-month operational expenditure target for the charity. This is a reduced target from 2024, which was enabled by moving certain operational costs to the charity's trading subsidiary.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The reserves policy is formed under the consideration of potential scenarios that would influence Build Studios' need to hold reserves and the amount of reserves that would be appropriate to cover these scenarios.
The main requirements for holding reserves by Build Studios are to cover the following:
- Unforeseen operational costs; in particular relating to sudden loss of income from Build Workspace (Build Studios' trading subsidiary and affordable workspace provider) as a result of any future office shut-downs necessitated by the Coronavirus pandemic or other emergencies - e.g. urgent/emergency building maintenance.
Additionally, any restricted funds that have already been secured to deliver charitable activities must be ring-fenced to deliver those activities in line with the requirements of funders.
Build Studios is fortunate that the majority of its work with beneficiaries can be met by its core staff resource, using its facilities available at 203 Westminster Bridge Road or off-site at host venues such as schools and developers.
The main risks that have been considered in the development of the reserves policy therefore relate to the continued operation of Build Studios' premises and affordable workspace provision, currently delivered by its trading subsidiary Build Workspace. This also comprises the main source of income for the charity.
Build Studios' current reserves are: £76,784
The company has now met its target essential reserves of £25,717.
FUTURE PLANS
In 2025, Build Studios will continue to expand its activities in line with its 5-year growth plan.
Existing activities will be delivered through core funds and we will work to raise additional funding to expand our programmes and our reach. In particular, we will seek sponsorship and partnership opportunities from property companies in order to expand the reach of our projects.
We will continue to evolve Alternative Practice, working to expand the breadth of engagement to a broader range of built environment disciplines.
The charity will undertake its first project with Primary School pupils, through funding secured through Lambeth Council's Social Value (Changing Lives) fund. This will comprise a Healthy Homes project for Year 6 pupils across five schools, looking at how our homes can keep us warm, dry and healthy.
We will aim to grow our partnership with South Bank VI Form, offering opportunities for VI form pupils to meet with professionals in the sector and see practical applications for their learning in the classroom.
We will continue to strengthen the links between the wider community of young people we work with and our contacts within the built environment sector to promote collaboration between education and industry.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 December 2024
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
Build Studios is governed by a voluntary board of trustees/directors. Build Workspace has a separate, independent board. There is some representation on the Build Workspace board by Trustees from Build Studios to ensure good communication and collaboration across the two organisations. However, there is sufficient separation to ensure quorate decisions can be made by non-conflicted directors.
Trustees are selected from an open advertisement via Build Studios' public channels (website, social media and newsletters). There is no maximum term, but the third longest serving trustees must retire by rotation at each AGM. They may stand for re-election by the company members if they wish. The Trustee is selected based upon their suitability to the role description. The trustees' induction includes a briefing on the structure of the organisation, the Articles of Association and charitable objects, as well as our policies including conflicts of interest.
Related parties
Build Studios has a management agreement with Build Workspace, which enables it to receive the following income:
o Donations from Build Workspace's operating profits
o Monthly management fee to cover a percentage of core operating costs, such as business rates, service charge, BID levy and insurance and IT costs
This income enables Build Studios to cover core costs and to fund the management of the charity and delivery of its projects, as well as a small marketing and communication budget. This enables Build Studios to run its core careers enrichment programme, outreach and engagement work, and to provide workspace and events space at a discounted rate to charities.
Alongside the income from the trading subsidiary, the charity needs to fundraise from external grant sources for delivery costs for new projects.
