**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, are pleased to present their annual 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). 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **Charitable activities** 

Langland Conservation was established in 2021 as a not-for profit company and received charitable status in the UK in 2023. Langland's purpose is the promotion of the efficiency and effectiveness of charities and the effective use of charitable resources for the public benefit in such as parts of the world as the trustees shall determine through the provision of: 

- predictive anti-poaching technology. 

- other technical analytical capabilities to assist with the investigation of poaching and illegal trafficking activities; and 

- providing specialist training to national parks, reserves and wildlife conservancies. designed to promote the care and protection of endangered species, and by extension their natural habitats, where they are at risk from poaching, illegal trafficking, degradation, and illegal activity. 

Langland's operational outputs in 2024 were geographically dispersed across Africa, India, and Asia. We have been able to provide decision-makers with insights and actionable intelligence based on holistic analysis, data science, capacity building, conservation science and through providing technical expertise to investigations into illegal wildlife trafficking. 

Our support is delivered in a variety of ways: we overlay and analyse dozens of data sets to build understanding of protected areas in. order to support decision making by communities and protected area guardians and managers; we provide training to equip those at the frontline of conservation efforts to better collect, manage and analyse information; and we support investigative organisations with technical capabilities and by building the macro picture of transnational trafficking networks. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The Charity’s objectives are to provide ongoing specialist support to conservation partners working at the frontline of efforts to protect wildlife and wild places. To that end, our support entails access to our partners’ sensitive data and to privileged information about ongoing sensitive investigations. We maintain the strictest of data sharing and information management protocols and so do not divulge details of our partners’ work publicly. We also recognise that our efforts represent a contribution to the successes of our partners’ work. To that end our profile reflects our role – we are in support and remain behind the scenes. 

Our work in 2024 included supporting multiple investigations in West & Central and Southern Africa, Indonesia, and India; we provided analysis support to decision makers in protected areas in Brazil, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Mali, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kenya, India, and Indonesia; and we built capacity in India, Indonesia, Zimbabwe, Central African Republic and DRC. 

The Charity reports fully to our donors and to our partners. The following are selected extracts of testimonials from our partners, beneficiaries, and stakeholders: 

_“We are big believers in collaboration, whether with National partners or other organisations, but our prize relationship is that with Langland Conservation.  Indicative of our trust and the value we place on their work, we partner with them on all our projects.  Langland provides the exceptional and niche skillsets to the development of conservation intelligence that the sector largely lacks.  We needed to make more better decisions to focus our work and Langland has been the only organisation we have come across to do this.  Whether tailoring technology, training rangers, providing analysis or designing strategic/national analytical architecture, their work is characterised by professionalism, deep insightful inquiry, comprehensiveness and pioneering approaches.  They draw upon capabilities that others have not, they inquire where others cannot, and they find what others do not.  Our relationship was forged in Mali 2021 and continues to grow year on year. Bottomline - There is no one out there that is able to collect, ingest, organise, analyse, investigate like Langland Conservation”_

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

_“Pangolin Crisis Fund (PCF) support to Langland Conservation continues to be one of our high performing investments. This is in terms of the breadth of support that is being made available and tailored to support the varying needs of multiple PCF partners, as well as the technical depth of this support._ 

_Langland provides valuable support to PCF partners including detailed country-wide analysis, protected areas analysis, patrol data analysis, predictive modelling and many other areas of analytical and mapping support. This helps partners to take their operations to the next level. The Illegal Wildlife Trade Support Project, co-funded through the RRF co-grant, works with a variety of RRF and PCF partners to focus and accelerate investigations on a hitherto unprecedented scale. If this were to be significantly scaled up, it has the potential to be game-changing in combatting the illegal wildlife trade.”_ 

## **Araluen Schunmann, Director, The Pangolin Crisis Fund – WCN** 

_“The partnership between Langland and WCN PCF/RRF has exposed intricate connections between wild crime scenes and efficiently & timeously linked the crime scenes with potential suspects and criminal syndicates. What has also been shown by the work Langland are doing and trying to help organisations actually disrupt the syndicates are the few really dedicated and able skills there is out there to conduct and successfully prosecute wildlife criminals. Through continued partnership between RRF PCF & Langland we will expose linkages and seek out those organisations that are working hard at disrupting wildlife criminals. Well done to Langland for bringing specialist criminal disruption skills to the conservation arena and the PCF/RRF Langland partnership will grow stronger and disrupt wildlife crime to the benefit of all wildlife and the biodiversity that we seek to protect.”_ 

## **Markus Hofmeyr, Director, Rhino Recovery Fund – WCN** 

_“Langland has been absolutely instrumental in providing credible and actionable intelligence to support our terrestrial and cyber-counter trafficking work. In a very short space of time, their support and research has enabled us to instigate at least four ongoing transnational wildlife trafficking enquiries, and we rely on their flexibility and adaptability to ensure investigative progress, given the constant changing dynamics of the criminal enterprises we are looking at. Their product is always coherent, appropriately analysed and enables decision-makers to identify next steps with consideration and accuracy. Their work is undoubtedly one of the most effective tools I have encountered in 10 years of working in conservation intelligence and law enforcement.”_ 

_**Investigative NGO Partner – Global**_ 

_"Langland has been our go-to for investigative support and helped us break through in times we were stuck. The assistance was always fast and effective and added another dimension to some of our biggest international investigations. It is rare to get such trusted and effective collaboration in the field of wildlife crime investigation"_ 

## _**Investigative NGO Partner – Africa**_ 

## **Financial review** 

## **Financial position** 

As shown on the Statement of Financial Activities, income for the year amounted £394,066 and expenditure for the year amounted to £458,877 giving a net decrease in funds of £64,811. At the end of the year, the charity's net assets amounted to £48,410. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The principal funding sources of the charity currently comprise grants, consultancy work and donations. Grants are recognised to match income to expenditure, except for restricted funds that are allocated in the year of receipt. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Reserves Policy ensures financial stability and sustainability and supports the charity's mission by maintaining adequate reserves to cover unforeseen expenditures and secure ongoing operations. 

The long-term financial viability of the Charity is being secured through two key pillars: the diversification of funding sources and meticulous planning on the use of funds. Our funding diversification plan includes maintaining close relationships with existing donors and institutional funds, broadening our donor base, applying for institutional grants, and expanding our consultancy projects with small and large organisations. A key element of our ability to provide extraordinary cost effectiveness is our continued access to pro bono and heavily discounted technical support from partners who share our mission.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024** 

## **Going concern** 

After reviewing the charity's forecasts and projections, the Board have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The entity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements as its Trustees have obtained a commitment for a lender to not withdraw their funds within twelve months of the date of the accounts sign off. 

## **Structure, governance and management Governing document** 

Langland Conservation Limited is an Incorporated Non-for-profit Charitable Company governed by its Constitution. It is a registered charity with the Charity Commission and a Charitable Company Limited by guarantee registered at Companies House 

## **Organisational management** 

The trustees are the directors and they form the governing body Langland Conservation Limited. New trustees are identified by trustees and their recruitment is based upon the skills and experience that they can bring to Langland Conservation Limited with the board seeking to provide the charity with a range of skills in governance and management. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. Risks are identified, assessed and controls established throughout the year. A formal review of the charity's risk management process is undertaken on an annual basis and the key controls include: 

- comprehensive strategic planning, budgeting and management accounting 

- established organisational structure and lines of reporting 

- formal written policies 

- clear authorities and approval levels 

- full risk assessment for all events and activities 

Through the risk management processes, the trustees are satisfied that the major risks identified have been adequately managed where necessary. It is recognised that systems can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed.

## **Trustees' responsibility statement** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Langland Conservation Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law 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 charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF LANGLAND CONSERVATION LTD** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Langland Conservation Ltd ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

## - Computer equipment 25% on reducing balance 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **Financial instruments** 

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction price and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company, after deducting all liabilities. 

At each balance sheet date, financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.
