TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of Pasteur Foundation – UK (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2024. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the Charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (second edition of the Charities SORP (FRS102) October 2019, effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Policies and objectives
The Charity’s principal objectives, as set out in its strategic plan and governing documents, are:
-
To raise awareness in the UK of the work of the Institut Pasteur as an internationally renowned centre of excellence for biomedical research and public health.
-
To encourage scientific partnerships with British institutions and promote existing partnerships between the Institute Paster and the UK.
-
To raise funds to award grants to support cross-border projects at the interface of multiple scientific disciplines between the Institut Pasteur and leading UK-based research institutions, tackling global public health challenges.
In 1876, Louis Pasteur said: “Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world.” 150 years later, at Pasteur Foundation – UK, we still believe that the next major public health challenges will be better addressed by cross-border scientific cooperation.
Our Vision
Pasteur Foundation UK seeks to support cross- border projects at the interface of multiple scientific disciplines between the Institut Pasteur and leading UK based research institutions, tackling global public health challenges.
Our Mission
Our mission is to raise awareness of, and support for, these scientific collaborations. The main activities funded by the charity to further the charities’ purpose for the public benefit are:
-
Cross-border student exchange programmes for master’s and PhD level students to undertake part of their studies in Paris at the Institut Pasteur and part of their studies at a UK based institution in order to enhance their understanding of their chosen research area.
-
Cross-border research projects into global public health challenges where the collaboration between Pasteur scientists and UK based scientists strengthens the quality and outcome of the research.
-
Cross- border conferences and symposiums to allow scientists at the Institut Pasteur and UK based institutions to explore research topics together.
Public Benefit
The Charity provides public benefit through the promotion of scientifical collaborations relating to global public health challenges. In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
In 2024, its first full year of activity, Pasteur Foundation – UK was still establishing its strategy, Board of Trustees, and supporter network. Despite being in this early phase, the Charity achieved a number of important milestones:
-
£32,927 raised in donations, laying the foundation for future growth.
-
4 new donors secured, reflecting early philanthropic confidence in the Foundation’s mission.
-
First grant awarded to a student through the Pasteur–UK Young Researcher Mobility Programme, marking the beginning of our funding pillar in Education.
-
Two successful events delivered: one hosted with the Royal Society in London and one at the British Embassy in Paris, both of which strengthened Franco-British scientific and philanthropic ties.
-
Recruitment of a new Trustee, expanding governance capacity.
-
Establishment of a social media presence, building the foundations of an online community to raise awareness of our work.
These achievements demonstrate that even at an early stage, the Charity was able to make meaningful progress towards its objectives of raising awareness, building networks, and supporting scientific collaboration.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Total income for the year was £202,655 (2023: £9,021), and total expenditure was £82,259 (2023: £2,190), resulting in a net surplus for the year of £120,396 (2023: £6,831). Closing unrestricted funds at the end of the year were £127,227 (2023: £6,831).
Reserves Policy
Pasteur Foundation – UK continues to operate under a prudent reserves policy. The Charity retains a small proportion of each donation as unrestricted reserves to ensure financial resilience and support ongoing operational costs.
The Charity also benefits from seed support provided by the Institut Pasteur, which underpins its running costs in this formative period.
The Trustees review the reserves policy annually to ensure it remains appropriate to the scale and maturity of the organisation.
Principal Funding Sources
In 2024, the Charity's principal funding sources were:
-
Starting grant of €200,000 received from the Institut Pasteur.
-
Philanthropic donations totaling £32,927, raised from a mix of individual donors and supporters.
-
Continued institutional support from the Institut Pasteur for the Foundation’s early operations.
This blend of philanthropic income and institutional support provided a strong basis for the Charity’s activities in its first full year.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
FUTURE PLANS
Looking ahead from 2024, the Charity’s key goals are to:
-
Grow its network and supporter base through both in-person and digital engagement.
-
Raise additional funds to increase the scale and impact of its activities.
-
Establish a presence within the Franco-British community in the UK, both online and through events, positioning Pasteur Foundation UK as a trusted partner for cross-border scientific collaboration.
In addition to these immediate priorities, the Charity will also begin work to build a stronger strategic plan in alignment with the Institut Pasteur’s Pasteur 2030 strategy. This involves structuring our activities around three founding principles of Education, Research, and Exploration, with four key scientific pillars at the heart:
-
Environmental Transitions and Health
-
Infectious Disease Threats
-
Origins of Disease
-
Health and Disease at the Extremes of Life
The Charity’s future direction will be guided by these themes, ensuring that UK philanthropy directly supports cutting-edge Franco-British collaborations addressing the most pressing global health challenges.
To deliver this ambition, our goals are to:
-
Secure greater major support from corporates, trusts, and individuals, building the long-term sustainability of the Foundation.
-
Strengthen our presence in the Franco-British community in London, particularly by deepening ties with key institutions such as the French Embassy, the French Chamber of Great Britain, and other cultural and scientific partners.
-
Raise our profile as a central actor in fostering Franco-British collaboration on science, health, and global challenges.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE, AND ORGANISATION
Trustees are recruited for their skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the Charity, as well as their personal interested in the work of the Foundation and their commitment to help the Charity achieve its core goals. In the early stages of establishing the Charity, Trustees will be appointed according to the Board structure set out in the Foundation’s strategic plan. Trustees are appointed by the Board in accordance with the constitution.
There must be at least three Trustees. If the number falls below this minimum, the remaining Trustee or Trustees may act only to call a meeting of the charity Trustees or appoint a new charity trustee.
In accordance with the constitution, Trustees must be appointed to the board for a term of three years (with the exception of the first charity trustees, who are appointed for four years). New Trustees must be appointed by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees.
The Institut Pasteur may appoint at least three charity trustees, at least one of whom should be involved with the Institut Pasteur’s fundraising programme.
Trustee induction
The Trustees will make available to each new charity trustee:
-
A copy of the current version of the Foundation’s constitution; and
-
A copy of the Foundation’s latest Trustees’ Annual Report and statement of accounts
In addition, a declaration of interests must be completed and checks to ensure they are not disqualified from becoming a trustee. The Charity Commission trustee eligibility declaration will then be signed and submitted to the Charity Commission. Pasteur Foundation – UK will also provide all new trustees with an information pack, including previous Board meeting minutes and information on projects and new trustees will also be offered a tour of the Institut Pasteur Paris campus.
The Trustees who served during this period were as follows:
Professor Sir Stewart Cole (Chair) Stephen Brenninkmeijer Paul Nurse Antoine Bogaerts Caroline Giboulet Norma Fentanes (appointed 27 May 2024)
Organisational Structure and Decision Making
Responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Charity are delegated by the trustees to the Head of Development. The Head of Development is responsible for fundraising, communications, partnership development, events and overseeing the general administrative running of the Foundation. The Head of Development reports to the trustees once a quarter on the progress of the Foundation at the meeting of the Board of Trustees. All major decisions of the Charity, including awarding grants, appointment of new Trustees and significant financial decisions are taken at the quarterly meeting of the Board of Trustees.

All funds raised and grants awarded by Pasteur Foundation – UK are to support work taking place between scientists at the Institut Pasteur and UK-based research institutions.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PASTEUR FOUNDATION – UK ('the Charity')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2024.
RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) 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 been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
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 accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and 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 Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Pasteur Foundation – UK meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
1.2 GOING CONCERN
The Trustees have reviewed the financial position of the Charity, and have a reasonable expectation that it has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements continue to be prepared on the going concern basis.
1.3 INCOME
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Grants are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a grant is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the Charity is entitled to the funds the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfillment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Donations are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date, which usually occurs upon receipt.
1.4 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 on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

PASTEUR FOUNDATION – UK
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
1.4 EXPENDITURE (CONTINUED)
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
1.5 DEBTORS
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.6 CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.7 LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
1.8 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.9 PENSIONS
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
1.10 FUND ACCOUNTING
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
