REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
It was clear to LOTG In 2021 that what was lacking was a clear UK national integrated approach to
concusslon In sport. LOTG worked closely with the UK Government to define such an approach, and made
slgnificant contributlons to the Government's response to the DCMS Select Committee report on
Concussion in sport as we11 as the first natlonal Guidellnes for Concussion Management in Grassroots
Sport ("If In doubt, sit them out I which were published In Aprll 2023. We were also key in setting up
DCMS'5 Innovation and Technology Gmup and it5 Research Group. It was also clear that, although the
was a significant body of expertSse In concussion throughout medical and academic Institutltsns in the UK,
there wa5 insufficient coordlnatlon and sharlng of expertise. In 2022 LOTG began to draw together a
network of leadlng neur05urgeons, neurologists, neuro-psychologlsts and radiographers from aroun(J 20
leading hospltals and centre5. It was originally called the RegSonal Sport5 Concussion Centres Network
but was renamed the UK Concussion Network IUKCNI. It Is co-chaired by Professor Peter Hutchinson
from Cambrldge and Professor Mlchael Parker from LOTG. The network ha5 been invaluable in, inter alia,
provldlng advice to LOTG and to government which helped them to craft the national guidelines for
concusslon management across all grassroot sports as mentloned above.
An Important part of our WO￿ has been eXplo￿ng new technologles of Inte￿5t. LOTG ha5 been Involved
n showcaslng new technologies slnce Its creatlon, starting with a 'Hackathon' in March 2021 which saw
teams of students, researchers, designers and medics from the top universltles In the UK formed to
deslgn new technologies to prevent, dlagnose or treat concusslon in sport. Medla interest led to an
ongoing LOTG focus on providing platforms for new technologies In the forrn of annual 'Demo Days,.
Some of these have shown partScular promlse. We ctsntinue to work with WAVI, an early Demo Day
partlclpant, whose portable brain scanner has recently receSved FDA approval In the USA and the
research paper Is being reviewed for publication In 'Braln Research,. LOTG support for WAVI has Involved
fundlng three machlnes which have been deployed in testing at three rugby clubs In England, Another
Demo Day product, Polarcap, a portable cooling system Intended to reduce exerclse-lnduced elevated
braln temperature to prevent or limit long term cognltlve Impalrment after brain trauma, Is now being
Used by professional teams in ice hockeyi football, rugby unlon and rugby league in multiple countrles,
including testing by the natlonal rugby league team of Australla. In Ottober 2024 we held another demo
day showcasing 'BrainEye', 'Concussion Toolkit, and 'Abbot'. Thls was our second fundralslng event at
Holland and Holland and it was again generously supported by Unlspace. It was targeted at a selected
audlence to help fund support for the tech companies who exhiblted.
From an eady stage it was clear too that insufficient attention had been glven to prevention of
concusslon, as opposed to recognition, treatment and management. LOTG had organised and provlded
fundlng for a first Concussion Prevention Conference in 2022 and repeated that for a second conference
in April 2024 in London, In partnershlp wlth the Unlvetsity of 8ath and Calgary Unlverslty. These
onferences saw the creation of a new UK Concussion Prevention Network. A Steering Group and an
Advisory Group have been set up to dellver the alms of the network and provlde governance and
cornmunicatlon with key stakeholder organlsations. The Ctsnclusions of thls second conference wtsuld
influence the way in whlch LOTG has moved forward In the perlod from mld 2024 to the present, as
explalned below.
LOTG takes a solutlons-based approach to the problem by worklng wlth athletes, technologlsts,
academlcs and the business and financial communities to develop new technologles that wlll prevent,
diagnose and treat head injuries in sport. Llke most sports, success Is the product of a whole team.
Solving this crisis Is no different, We have brought together a unlque network of over 600 supporters
representing the UK'S rnajor sports, government, academla, technology, SCIen￿ and buslness. We have
forged new and producLlve relat10n5hip5 wlth major and grassroots sportlng clubs, research Institutes,
charitable organSsation5 and major governlng sports bodies. Rather than focusing on the challenges of
the past, LOTG'S aim Is to protect the players of the future and ensure that future athletes are protected
from long term health risks that yesterday's and today's players have had to accept. Ln order to achieve
thls and fulfil the objects OF the CIO, LOTG promotes a solutlons-based approach across three plllars
education, science and technology whlch are of course not mutually excluslve.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal fundin9 $ourceg
The Accounts for the financial years 2024-2025 are attached to thls report. Key figure5 are Income of
£32,866 and expenditure of £46,131.
We ￿ceiVed a generous donation of £25,000 In August 2024 from the Rubln Foundation Charitable Trust,
which helped fund our actlvlties Includlng the Concu55ion Prevention Conference. As noted in last year's
accounts we received in May 2023 an Intere5t-f￿e flve- year loan from Lauren￿ Geller. The remalnlng
ncome derives from fund-raising actlvitles at Demo Days and other events, through Indlvidual donations
or proceed5 of charity auctlons,
Thls Income is then directed towards fundlng indlvldual technology projects as mentloned or the runnlng
costs of LOTG.
Reserves pollcy
During the accountlng period LOTG had no reserves. However, the current TNstees of LOTG agreed In
early 2025 to set up a reseNe fiJnd for the following financial year comprising IO% of all future donations
or contrlbutlons from fund-raising events. to ensure the organisation Is able to cover the cost OF any
future oblSgatlons, Including the ￿paYment of any exlsting or future loans.
FUTURE PLANS
As noted, the first phase of LOTG was focused on helplng establlsh the baslc framewo￿￿5 and to influence
and guide Government and sporting bodles. pollcy on concusslon In sport, especSally grassroots sport.
The second Concussion ?￿ventIon Conference in April 2024 however highlighted areas where LOTG, and
others, should increasingly focus their work. The Network set an ambitious target to reduce concussions
in UK youth and communlty sports by 30% by 2030. Thls goal wlll be pursued and through Implementlng
new policies and trainlng Inltlatlves, through equlpment Interventlons. The ctsnference concluded that
education was key, both of players and teachers/organlsers. LOTG had recognlsed the Importance of
educatlon early on and had enga9ed wlth leadlng organlsatSons such as Complete Concusslon and PodSum
to determine the best way of gettSng the key messages across vla Apps etc. But the 2024 conference and
its ambitious objectives have provlded the Smpetus for more actlon on our part In this area, We are in
discussions with Complete Concussion on the provSslon of free onlSne tralnlng and have entered into a
contractual relationshlp with Concusslon Toolklt, an organlsatSon whlch provSdes dlgltal tools and
concusslon workshops, particularly for unlversities and schools, for them to be our delivery partner.
Desplte thls Increaslng emphasis on educatlon, we have not stepped back from some of our earller
activities, notably showcasing new technologles and processes, or work wlth the UK Concusslon Networf(.
Both BralnEye and Abbot (biomarkers measuring tool), participants in the 2024 Derno Day, are now
pursulng clear business opportunities eg Braineye with Stade Francais and Abbott with the Phllipplnes.
And Concussion Toolkit's participation in that event led eventually to the arrangement wlth LOTG. We
continue to search for emerging technologles of interest and are plannlng another Demo Day for the first
part of 2026.
In partnershlp wlth Concussion Toolkit, LOTG are helping to fund an education and awareness
programme, InStlally throughout all universitie5 and public 5choo15 Wlthin the UK. Thi5 programme will
then be extended to all natSonal schools and grassroots communlty sports clubs. Our goal Ss to provlde
consistent awareness tralning to identify potentlal head injurles as they occur, gUIdan￿ on how to initiate
appmpriate 'return to play. protocols and, if necessary, how to seek appropriate medical treatment and
recovery.
We also remaSn commltted to the UK Concussion Network whlch wlll be hostlng Its flrst face-to-face
meeting in London in December 2025 and LOTG wlll be a key particlpant.
