## **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** 

## The charity’s objects (‘the objects’: 

To provide or assist in the provision of facilities for canoeing, rock climbing, mountain biking, and other outdoor sports and recreation or leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions of life, including the provision of support and training to overcome barriers to participation and which builds their capacities and skills. 




## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects:** 

Established in 1999, our outdoor activity–based charity exists to widen access to the outdoors for people from underserved and underrepresented communities. Its purpose is to remove social, financial, and cultural barriers that prevent individuals from benefiting from outdoor learning and adventure, and to use these experiences as a pathway to personal growth, confidence, and leadership. 

WAVE delivers inclusive, individualised and developmental programmes that support participants from novice to leadership and instructor pathways. Activities typically include rock climbing, hill walking, paddle sports, mountain biking and environmental education delivered in safe, supportive settings. Alongside technical skills, activities focus on building resilience, teamwork, wellbeing, and a sense of belonging. Participants are encouraged to progress at their own pace, with tailored mentoring, accredited qualifications, and volunteering opportunities. By developing skills, aspirations, and community connections, WAVE enables people not only to thrive outdoors, but to transfer these strengths into education, employment, and leadership within their own communities. 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities:** 

## WAVE's main objectives are: 

- To offer the most under represented and inactive in our local communities opportunities to take part in outdoor activities which will improve physical health. 

- To improve the well being, mental health and prospects of our beneficiaries through enabling them to take on leadership roles and to make positive contributions to their community. 

- To increase representation for those from under-served communities, both as participants and leaders in the activities we specialise in. 

- To foster an increased awareness of environmental issues amongst our beneficaries, supporting all to enjoy and care for local green spaces responsibly. 




## **Review of activities and achievements** 

WAVE has continued to experience a huge demand for its range of programmes now running around 10+ sessions per week plus targeted sessions & events.  Our organisations continues to target provision for those experiencing most isolation and disadvantage ages 3-80+ typically working with 1500+ each year. 

Our environmental sustainability has, again increased significantly and we have led on campaigns such as #onelesscar and rewilding projects in Derbyshire and Rossendale. 

WAVE recognises the significant partnership with Adullam Homes, greatly strengthened by a number of grants, enabling us to work closely and developmentally with homeless adults facing multiple issues/ barriers to participation. 

WAVE developed a public mountain bike skills area and pump track in Crawshawbooth, named Zona Moller, designed and built with over 70 members of the community, including young people and women, to ensure it is accessible and suitable for users from all backgrounds.  It has been recognised by the community and local public figures as an exciting new provision which benefits residents of Rossendale and those visiting The Valley from further afield. 

Our organisation’s contribution to local communities was recognised through winning the Pride of Rossendale Award for The Community Group of the Year; regionally through The Forever Manchester Forever Futures Award and nationally through the King’s Award for Voluntary Services. 

Beneficiaries this year have included: 

- Those in recovery from substance misuse. 

- Global majorities, including Ukrainian families and Muslim girls and women. 

- Older people living with medical conditions such as Parkinson’s 

- Homeless young people and adults. 

- Those with a physical disability 

- Those with lived experience of mental illness 

- Those with a learning disability 

- Individuals from our projects have moved on to volunteer within their communities. 

- Others have gone on to enrol on College and University courses. 

- Our organisation continues to be led and informed by those with lived experience. 




## **Our aims for 2026** 

WAVE will continue to develop its provision and increase regular opportunities to participate in its projects.  It will continue to be responsive to the needs of its members/ beneficiaries. Plans include: 

- Increase participation in activities/ volunteering opportunities for those experiencing the most inactivity and under representation. 

- Develop leased/ owned land to create more participation/ volunteering opportunities for those from under represented communities. 

- Maintain numbers of participants to around 1500+ 

- Increase income generated through a range of activities including contracts, residentials and delivery of nationally recognised qualifications. 

- Secure a permanent base for storage & delivery of programme and explore the possibility of acquiring a suitable building to develop a climbing centre and an outdoor activity centre.

**Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Wave Adventure For The Year Ended 31 December 2025 Charity No. 1164935** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Wave Adventure (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records. 

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.
