BLACK BRITISH INITIATIVE 

Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 

The trustees 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** 

Black British Initiative (BBI), seeks to challenge racial injustice and promote human rights, equality, equity and diversity to achieve societal harmony. This is realised through the promotion of education, training, arts, culture, heritage and science to assist and support Britain's Black community. 

The charity helps by sponsoring executive educational and other programmes, offering bursaries to underserved and underrepresented Black people, making it possible for them to benefit from transformative education delivered by one of  the UK's prestigious universities. In addition, the charity undertakes relevant UK research and provides access to buildings, facilities and open Space. 

## **Public benefit** 

Black British Initiative, believes, racial injustice is a societal wide issue, only eradicated with the support of all races, genders and age groups and as a strategy, seeks to collaborate with synergistic organisations, companies and institutions to achieve its objectives. 

Black British Initiative understands, driving up levels of equity and equality is necessary to achieve a fair and balanced society, crucial for the future of the UK. To deliver its mission, during June 2023, BBI conceived MBA 30, a high level executive educational programme and accelerated MBA delivered by SOAS, University of London. 

At the time of launch during June 2023, the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation, was commemorating 30 years since Stephen's murder, to help mark this anniversary each cohort can accommodate up to 30 students, acknowledging that anniversary and celebrating his legacy. 

Five cohorts have now been delivered, benefitting burgeoning and established micro entrepreneurs and by doing so, addressing huge issues of wealth disparity impacting the UK's Black population. Another five cohorts are planned for 2025. 

Recognising executive education is only part of the solution, BBI has entered into a formal partnership with the Metro and dmg ventures to create, the MBA 30 Emerging Entrepreneur Awards 2025. These awards give twelve participants of the MBA 30 programme a chance to compete in four categories: Beauty & Wellbeing | Art & Creativity | Fashion and Technology. All twelve finalists are profiled in the Metro news paper at a rate of one per month, enabling them to take advantage of the Metro's five million daily readers and 50 million page views per month, drastically reducing their marketing spend and customer acquisition costs. Finally, the winners in each of the four categories secure a guaranteed audience with the CEO of dmg ventures and a chance to pitch for seed to series A funding of £250,000 to £1.5m, creating a funding opportunity which is invaluable, transformative and exceptionally rare. 

The trustees are aware of and do regard the guidance issued by the Charity Commission. 

## **Social investments** 

Black British Initiative, specifically supports qualified Black business owners with a bursary, enabling them to take advantage of prestigious education. This is made possible through BBI's MBA 30 as short business course designed to boost prospects for 30 underserved Black entrepreneurs per cohort, simultaneously commemorating Stephen's 30th anniversary. Black British Initiative has ongoing support from sponsors/donors and will also apply funds from any grants to achieve it charitable for the current and forthcoming year. 

(I) the promotion of equality and diversity by cultivating a sentiment in favour of promoting (II) Promoting access to benefits of formal and informal education amongst people of African or Afro Caribbean heritage (III) Promoting and fostering understanding between people of diverse backgrounds.

## Trustees' Report 

## for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

For the year ended 31 December 2024, the charity experienced a reduction in income compared with the previous year, primarily due to the completion of major grant-funded projects and fewer large one-off donations. Total income for the year was £63,908 (2023: £415,195). 

Total expenditure for the year amounted to £176,036 (2023: £216,025), reflecting a significant reduction as a result of careful cost management and a focus on maintaining core charitable activities within available resources. Expenditure continued to support the charity’s principal programmes, including the MBA 30 Programme, in line with our strategic objectives to maximise impact for beneficiaries. 

At the year end, the charity held net assets of £87,042 (2023: £199,170), comprising unrestricted reserves of £31,005 and restricted funds of £56,037. The positive unrestricted reserve balance demonstrates the trustees’ prudent management of general funds, ensuring the charity retains sufficient flexibility to meet ongoing commitments and respond to emerging opportunities. Restricted reserves represent funds held for specific projects, which will be utilised in accordance with donor requirements during the coming year. 

While total reserves have decreased compared with the prior year, the trustees consider the charity’s financial position to be sound and sustainable. The current level of unrestricted reserves provides a reasonable cushion for operational needs and supports the charity’s short- to medium-term plans. The trustees regularly review the reserves policy to ensure it remains appropriate for the charity’s activities, size, and risk profile. 

The trustees remain mindful of wider economic challenges and continue to monitor financial performance closely to safeguard the charity’s resilience and ability to deliver its mission effectively in the year ahead. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The charity's principal fundraising supports projects that are in fulfilling the charity's obligations and comprise of restricted and unrestricted funds that can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for specific purposes within the objects of the charity. 

In this respect the charity's principle source of funding relates to sponsorship for MBA 30 bursaries and donations to support the charity at large. 

Funds mainly come from corporates, institutions and large companies 

Charity must continue to attract sponsors and supporters to maintain and expand its programmes 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The Black British Initiative manages its financial resources prudently to ensure long-term sustainability in support of its charitable objectives. The Charity's investment policy aims to protect and, where possible, grow its capital, generating a reasonable return while minimizing risk. Investment decisions are made with consideration to the Charity’s needs for liquidity and its ethical commitments, ensuring that investments align with the Charity’s values and do not conflict with its mission. 

The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the investment policy, regularly reviewing the portfolio’s performance, and making adjustments as necessary to ensure that investments remain in line with the Charity’s financial strategy. Investment income, alongside other sources of funding, enables the Charity to carry out its projects and initiatives effectively, ensuring that resources are maximized to support the Charity’s impact within the community. 

## **Reserves policy** 

To provide the stability necessary and to ensure the charity has the resource to consistently deliver its mission, we aim to maintain at least three to four months reserves and currently adhere to this policy. Amount of reserves held Five months at the year ended 31 December 2024.

BLACK BRITISH INITIATIVE 

Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Going concern** 

Consistent with most charities, Black British Initiative has the challenge of raising funding to maintain and grow its current and planned programmes. 

With the growing traction and popularity of Black British Initiative's projects, the charity is confident about the future and does not perceive any particular risk. 

This confidence stems from high profile events such as the MBA 30 Graduation Ceremony, which is a public display of impact and is attended by donors, sponsors and corporate partners, a reminder of why their support is important and the impact it creates. 

The board meets four to six times per annum and is provided with cash flow forecasts and additional information including an updated business plan to communicate BBI's status and where necessary, request the aid of all or various trustees to address any shortcomings or governance issues. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

The Black British Initiative is dedicated to advancing its mission and enhancing its impact in the community over the coming years. Building on our recent successes, we aim to expand our programs and services, focusing on initiatives that empower and support the Black British community. Our future plans include developing new partnerships with local organizations, enhancing outreach efforts to ensure we reach underserved populations, and increasing our fundraising activities to secure diverse income streams. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Risk management** 

Charity must continue to attract sponsors and supporters to maintain and expand its programmes. 

Partnerships and collaborations are essential for BBI to achieve its objectives and it must continue to build a brand worthy of attracting blue chip organisations, leading institutions and large corporates, willing to support its mission during 2025
