TAXI CHARITY FOR MILITARY VETERANS TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

The Trustees present their report together with the financial statements (“accounts”) for the year ended 30 September 2024.

Objectives and Activities

The objectives of the Taxi Charity for Military Veterans (TCMV) are:

To organise outings, entertainment, transport and other support for former servicemen and women who are disabled, elderly, infirm, impoverished or otherwise in need of charitable assistance and to assist in the treatment and care of former servicemen and women who are lonely or disabled, elderly, infirm, impoverished or otherwise in need of charitable assistance by making grants of money for providing or paying for items, services or facilities.

Structure, Governance & Management Governing Document

The Taxi Charity for Military Veterans is an unincorporated registered charity, controlled by its governing document. The trustees are appointed by election to the Board of Trustees at the Annual General Meeting.

Public Benefit

How our activities deliver public benefit

The TCMV’s main objectives are described above. To achieve this, the Charity organises social events which the public, serving personnel and veterans alike can participate in. The Charity organises day trips in the UK and longer trips overseas to attend acts of commemoration, all of which affords civilians the opportunity to spend time with forces’ veterans, whilst providing the veterans with camaraderie and stimulation.

One of the main ways of fundraising for the charity are collections at London train stations, the London Underground and football stadiums. Several of our veterans take part in these collections and this gives them a feeling of pride along with a sense of belonging and purpose and brings them into contact with the public. These collections bring in much-needed funds for the Charity. We are delighted that we still have one or two WWII veterans at the collections but now it is mostly “younger” veterans from wars including Korea and the Falklands.

The Charity also enables a lifeline linking veterans with our volunteer taxi drivers, many of whom forge friendships. This is invaluable to those who are isolated and lonely. Looking after the interests of older veterans affords a form of social care, whilst giving reassurance to the local communities, as well as support to carers and veterans’ families.

The Charity has formed strong links with charities such as Waterloo Uncovered, focusing on those who have physical and mental injuries. Such events offer opportunities to socialise with civilians and in so doing helps to re-establish self-confidence. This also enables the Charity to work with much younger veterans, which must be the Charity’s aim for the future.

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 safety, fraud and error. To this end the Charity has a Safeguarding Policy, a Code of Conduct and Equality Policy, a Complaints Policy, a Conflicts of Interest Policy, a GDPR Policy and a Reserves Policy. These policies are reviewed annually.

Financial Review

The results for the separately designated funds, both restricted and unrestricted, are summarised in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Fundraising and Donors

This year the Charity has received some amazing donations and grants from the following grant making foundations, trusts and donors.

Donald Charitable Trust Johnny Gallagher FreeNow Morson International Clarkson Foundation CBOE Global Markets Ubiquitous Army Benevolent Fund

In addition, we have received incredible donations from veterans, their families, the public and longtime supporters of the charity both in the UK and the Netherlands. Charity Ambassador Johnny Gallager arranged an amazing fundraising campaign which raised thousands of pounds to help with the cost of the trip to Normandy.

Also, a special mention must go to Jacoline Rutgers who has worked tirelessly raising funds in the Netherlands for the charity.

Reserves Policy

The Reserves Policy states that £35,000 should be kept aside for emergencies and current unrestricted reserves exceed this amount.

Communications

The taxicharity.org website is brimming with stories about veterans and events that have taken place this year. This is continually updated by the Charity’s PR and Social Media consultants. The monthly cards that are designed in-house continue to receive a very warm response from veterans and their families, reminding them of the military anniversaries that take place each year.

Our Impact

Veteran Chris Langford, aged 39, who served with the Princess of Wales Royal Regiment said,

“It is a privilege to be involved with the charity, I will always feel in the charity's debt for the wonderful care and experiences they have given myself and other veterans, young and old. It's like a family and I've made fantastic new friends for life.”

7

Norman Bartlett (Norrie) aged 98, who served with the Royal Navy said, “You know you can only admire them. They pick us up from home, take us to events and bring us home at no cost to us. All I can say is what a wonderful bunch of guys they are.”

Dorothea Barron Royal Navy Wren aged 100 said, “I am incredibly grateful to the Taxi Charity for Military Veterans for the opportunity they have given me to speak about my wartime service. It has been amazing to have my contribution to WWII acknowledged at last and that wouldn't have happened without the Charity being interested in my history. In fact, without the Charity’s hard work, I wouldn't even have my war medal. Their support for us veterans has made visits to Normandy and Arnhem possible. People's interest in my life in the WRNS has reinvigorated this 100-year-old person. As a little girl my mother told me of the generosity of the London taxi drivers who used to take poor

London children to the seaside. I never imagined some ￿ years later I would be a beneficiary of the Taxi Charity myself."

Note 2 Accounting policies

2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
• the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated goods
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required
or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the
donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift
and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or
the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as
income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate
heading in the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Settlement of insurance
claims
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.

the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement
amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at
the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash
equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs
comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and
good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis
consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff
costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or
output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has
provided the specified service or output.
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid
the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised.
