TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the financial statements and comply with the charity’s constitution, the 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) (Charities SORP FRS 102), and the Charities Act 2011.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing Document
Screen Share UK is registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). The organisation began operating as a Community Interest Company on 15 March 2021 and converted to a CIO on 25 October 2023. It is governed by a constitution dated 25 October 2023.
Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees
The trustees have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience required for the effective administration of the charity when selecting individuals for appointment. Trustees are appointed to ensure the board maintains an appropriate balance of expertise and experience necessary to advance the charity’s objects.
Trustees’ Payments and Benefits
During the year, one trustee, Parviz Sedighi, received £4,550 for the provision of training and programme delivery services relating to the charity’s laptop refurbishment workshops. The arrangement was authorised in accordance with clause 6.2(B) of the charity’s Constitution and sections 185–188 of the Charities Act 2011. Trustees took independent legal advice and had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance (CC11) prior to approval. The proposed fee was benchmarked against comparable sector rates and trustees were satisfied that the payment was reasonable and in the best interests of the charity. The trustee concerned did not participate in discussions or decision-making and the rationale for the decision was formally recorded. A written agreement was entered into setting out the services to be provided and the maximum amount payable.
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.

OBJECTS, AIMS AND PUBLIC BENEFIT
Objects and Aims
The objects of the CIO are, for the public benefit, to relieve the needs of refugees, people seeking asylum and others with experience of forced migration, primarily through providing access to digital devices and equipment, alongside training and education in digital skills, as the trustees deem appropriate to facilitate digital inclusion and support adaptation to a new community and society.
The charity’s aim is to deliver digital inclusion support, including but not limited to the provision of devices, digital skills training, broader IT education, IT repair and internet connectivity. This work is intended to enable individuals to participate independently in society and support their integration within local communities and the UK more broadly.
Public Benefit
The trustees have had due regard to section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when exercising their duties.
Trustees consider that the charity’s activities directly further its charitable purposes by addressing digital poverty and strengthening digital capability among people with experience of forced migration. Access to devices, connectivity and skills enables beneficiaries to communicate effectively, access essential services, pursue education and employment opportunities and participate more fully in community life.
ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
During the year ended 31 December 2025, Screen Share expanded the scale of its charitable activities, delivering digital inclusion support across the UK.
The charity supported 1,585 unique clients, representing a 42% increase on the previous reporting period. Support was delivered through a combination of device provision, internet connectivity, digital skills training and technical education in response to both individual and community-level need. Total expenditure equated to an average cost of £266 per client, reflecting integrated and ongoing support tailored to individual circumstances rather than one-off provision.
Delivery maintained a strong focus on London while increasingly reflecting the geographic dispersal of need across the UK. Alongside concentrated provision in the capital, the charity supported individuals across the South East, South West, East of England, the Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber, North East, North West, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Trustees consider this national footprint indicative of the charity’s growing operational reach.
During the year, Screen Share collected 2,301 IT assets from 44 donating institutions. Donated devices were securely sanitised, refurbished and redistributed nationwide, with 1,288 clients receiving a device and/or connectivity. Monitoring data indicated that 47% of recipients reported household sharing, extending the reach of provision.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
A further development was the installation of an IT suite and internet connectivity at a temporary accommodation site, expected to support approximately 600 residents.
The charity delivered digital skills support to 276 clients through drop-ins, group sessions and bespoke training delivered with refugee support organisations. Support was accessed through both organisational referral pathways and a maintained self-referral route, ensuring access for individuals not yet connected to local services. The charity collaborated with a growing network of partner organisations, embedding specialist digital inclusion support within wider provision.
The refugee-specific laptop refurbishment and repair training programme supported 21 learners. Of those with the right to work, approximately half reported entering employment within six months, with several progressing into volunteering roles.
Provision continued to diversify and integrate, encompassing smartphones, tablets, SIM cards, Wi-Fi devices, one-to-one technical support, workshops, online classes and place-based infrastructure. Support was increasingly delivered based on assessed need.
The charity also piloted new delivery approaches to respond to differing support contexts, including infrastructure provision and expanded technical training. These pilots were undertaken within a structured learning framework to inform future service design.
Partnerships with IT Asset Disposal companies enabled the conversion of non-usable assets into social
value while contributing to unrestricted income.
Volunteers remained central to service delivery throughout the year. Screen Share coordinated 41 volunteers, who collectively contributed over 1,600 hours of volunteering time. This included Digital Champions who delivered digital skills training and one-to-one support to refugee clients, volunteer technicians who refurbished devices for redistribution, and members of the Lived Experience Advisory Board who contributed to strategic development and programme design. A significant proportion of volunteers were from refugee backgrounds, including former clients of the charity. Trustees consider this model to have created a supportive and accessible environment in which volunteers were able to develop skills, build peer networks, strengthen their readiness for the labour market and exercise agency and social purpose through meaningful contribution, while contributing to the charity’s objectives. Volunteers were recruited, trained and supported by staff, with appropriate supervision in place.
The staff team increased from four to ten, strengthening operational capacity. Trustees recognise a clear relationship between increased capacity and expanded impact and are satisfied that growth has been matched by appropriate strengthening of governance and operational controls.
Demand for digital inclusion support continued to exceed delivery capacity, with sustained growth in requests from both individuals and partner organisations. Trustees further recognise that continued growth is dependent on access to sufficient volumes of donated devices and the organisational capacity required to process and redistribute them safely and efficiently.
Trustees increasingly view the charity’s role as that of specialist digital infrastructure within the refugee support ecosystem.

PERFORMANCE AND IMPACT
Trustees exercised oversight through regular reporting, financial monitoring and review of impact data, supporting continued professionalisation during a period of significant growth.
The charity strengthened HR systems, organisational processes and staff wellbeing arrangements.
A comprehensive impact review, co-designed with lived experience input and completed by 259 clients across eight languages, provided a robust evidence base for strategic decision-making.
Analysis indicated a positive relationship between receipt of digital inclusion support and improved outcomes across employment, education and wellbeing. Individuals with access to devices, connectivity and skills reported greater ability to pursue training and work opportunities alongside measurable improvements in confidence, mental health and social participation. Trustees consider these findings to reinforce digital inclusion as an enabling condition for longer-term independence.
The review also identified reductions in reported stress and anxiety and increased community participation, countering assumptions that digital device use contributes to isolation.
Combined provision of devices with skills or connectivity support was associated with stronger outcomes than single interventions, informing continued service integration and the charity’s 2026–2030 strategy.
DONATED GOODS AND SERVICES
During the year the charity deepened its corporate partnerships, which led to a significant increase in the number of devices donated to Screen Share. The charity received 2,301 devices valued at £215,950. The valuation was based on the estimated market value of equivalent refurbished devices. The devices were distributed to beneficiaries during the year and have been included within charitable activities expenditure as donated devices.
During the year, the charity also received donated legal and professional services from several supporters. This allowed the charity to develop formal agreements with its donors, beneficiaries and charity partners; strengthen its HR processes; secure a lease on new premises; formalise and deepen key governance frameworks, including privacy and conflict of interest arrangements; enhance risk management and health and safety arrangements; and prepare appropriately for the establishment of a trading subsidiary.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROLS
Trustees strengthened the charity’s risk management framework during the year, including the establishment of a formal Risk Management Policy and restructuring of the Risk Register with assigned risk owners.
Trustees increased meeting time dedicated to risk review.
Data protection, privacy and cybersecurity remain integral to operations, particularly given the secure handling of donated devices and personal data. Effective asset management controls are considered essential to safeguarding beneficiaries and maintaining donor confidence.
Safeguarding is treated as an organisation-wide responsibility. A full organisational safeguarding audit led to policy updates and identified opportunities for further training and leadership development.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
Trustees oversaw a review of the charity’s work to inform a new five-year strategy shaped by input from clients, volunteers, staff, partners and trustees.
The strategy prioritises consolidation, service quality, deeper impact and organisational resilience over rapid expansion.
Focus areas include programme integration, tailored provision, strengthened partnerships with charities, government and the digital inclusion sector, and improved financial resilience through income diversification. Planned senior leadership recruitment will strengthen management capacity and reduce key-person dependency.
Delivery will be supported through defined KPIs and enhanced reporting mechanisms. Trustees consider the charity well positioned to deliver sustainable growth while responding to an area of increasing national importance.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Statement of Financial Activities shows total income for the year of £774,629 (2024: £485,940) and total expenditure of £749,330 (2024: £334,134) resulting in surplus of £25,299 (2024: £151,806). Total reserves of £177,105 are carried forward of which £121,262 are unrestricted and £55,842 are restricted.
Reserve Policy
The trustees have examined the requirement for free reserves which are those unrestricted funds not designated for specific purposes. The trustees consider that at present free reserves should be sufficient to cover approximately three months of regular operational expenditure. The trustees’ ambition in the next three to five years is to build up free reserves equivalent to six months of regular operational expenditure.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the charity’s constitution requires that the trustees prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity 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 judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
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 proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to 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 charity’s constitution. 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.

Screen Share UK CIO Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2025
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
Public benefit entity
The CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date on which these financial statements are approved. The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern based on the level of unrestricted reserves held at the year end.
Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item, is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity: this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
Funds accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Screen Share UK CIO Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2025
1 Accounting policies (continued)
Allocation of support and governance costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities based on the proportion of staff costs.
Tangible fixed assets
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:
Computer equipment 3 years straight line basis Office equipment 3 years straight line basis
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash 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.
Creditors
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
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 recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Accounting estimates and key judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
There are no key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
