RISING TO THE
CHALLENGE OF A
CHANGING WORLD
movement to the impacts of climate change
on children and their communities. From the
rise of complex and protracted crises in places
like Gaza and Sudan where children are heavily
impacted, to the devastating cuts to aid budgets
by many donors. including in the UK.
Plan International Is an organisation with
a big ambition. To see all girls stsnding
strong creating global change. But changes
in the exlernal world over the last twelve
months have put pressure on thal goal,
while simultaneously underscoring how
needed our work is.
The Plan International family is working
collaboratively to overcome these challenges in
order to maximise the impact we can have for
children and girls. At Plan International UK, our
2024-2027 strategy puts us in a good position
to navigate what lies ahead. But we don't
underestimate the task at hand. What grounds
us is our unwavering commitment to promoting
children's rights and equality for girls. And we're
so grateful to have you with us.

WELCOME FROM
OUR CEO
phase out the delivery of programmes with
and for girfs in the UK. We celebrate the huge
achievements of our UK Programmes unit, and
we will continue to be an active and passionate
voice for gids and their rights in the UK.
Since our last report, the scale and depth
of our impaGt have ¢ontinued to inspire.
From delivering bold new programmes
to responding to global humanitarian
crises, our work has reached far and wide
transfomiing lives, shifting narratives.
and driving meaningful change. Every
achievement reflects the power of collective
action and our belief in a more equal world
for children and girls.
Globally, the aid landscape has become
increasingly complex and constrained.
Dramatic funding cuts triggered by the new
US administration have reduced already
limited resources amid rising global needs.
Aongside this. we have seen a continued
rollback of rights for git1s and young women,
and a tightening of civic space, with growing
restrictions on organisations, activists, and
young people. In this context of shrinking
support and narrowing freedoms, our mission
has never been more urgent or more essential.
To sustain our impact. this year we made the
difficult decision lo reduce our cost base,
parting ways with valued colleagues. This
was necessary to ensure financial sustainability
and continue reaching communities in need,
and although the years ahead may be tough,
we are well placed lo navigate it.
We launched the State of Git1s' Rights in
the UK report, capturing the voices of 3.OC(I
girls and young women a¢ro$$ the UK.
Their insights and involvement sparked vital
national conversations and helped us engage
parliamentarians and key stakeholders with
clear recommendations to improve girls, rights.
I visited Liberia with two of our trustees to
witness thè work of thé Women's
Empowerment Programme ILWEPI. This
ambitious new programme challenges hamilul
dlscrimination that limits the potential of girls
and women, and aims to support 267.0(K)
women across 750 communities to build
financial independence.
Humanitarian crises in Gaza, Sudan, Ukraine,
and other underreported emergencies have
intensified, C￿aling unimaginable devastation
especially for children. In the face of such
suffering. our response has been swift and
detemiined. We launched two urgent appeals
with the Disasters Emergency Committee
IDEC). mobilising support and resources to
reach those most in need. The Middle East
Humanitarian Crisis appeal has enabled
the delivery of food, essential supplies, and
psychosocial support to farnilies enduring
profound loss and displacement. Our second
appeal, for the Myanrnar Earthquake, saw
U5 act within hour5 - becoming the first
humanitsrian organi5ation to share what we
were seeing with the UK media. This helped
raise vital awareness and funds to ensure
life-saving assistance reached communities
without delay. We remain deeply committed
to raising further funds, advocating for urgent
action, and worf(ing with local partners to bring
hope, relief, and dignity to those still facing
desperate circumstances.
Social Development Direct ISDDirect - our
consultancy company) has continued to
empower women, girfs and excluded groups
through 62 projects in 50 countries. SDDirect
also celebrated the renewal of the Safeguarding
Resource and Support Hub for another five
years- an important mileslone in strengthening
safeguarding across the sector.
Our Young Health Programme IYHPI has
flourished, empowering young people with the
knowledge and confidence to take charge of
their mental health and wellbeing. Over the past
five years, YHP UK has directly supported 5,600
young people and reached over 1.5 million
with vital information. The end of the YHP UK

lifelong advocate for women and girls, Liz

guide us through the challenges ahead. We will
be bold, we will be defiant, and we will not falter.
Thank you for standing in solidarity with us, and

WELCOME FROM
OUR CHAIR
With our dedicated board of trustees, and
exceptional colleagues in the UK and across
the global family, Plan International is well-
positioned to respond to what is undoubtedly
an incredibly challenging lime for the sector.
We are scaling up our ability to respond
quickly to humanitarian crisis, focusing on
securing income through public fundraising
and institutional partnerships. and embracing
a more locally-led. globally-connected
approach through our strategic goals. We
will stay focused on what we can control and
deliver impact where it matters most.
I'm proud to take up the n>le of Chair of
the Plan International UK Board of Trustee&
At a time when girls, rights are under
threat globally, Plan International's work
has never been more urgent. I have long
admired the organisation% bold advocacy, its
laser focus on gender equality. and the calibre
of its people. The organisation delivers real.
lasting change. and I'm delighted to join the
team, with Iheir mission aligning so closely
with rny own values and priorities.
Looking ahead, what gives me hope is the
strength of our allies and the clarity of our
mission. It's important to celebrate success,
even in tough times. and this annual report
gives some examples of Plan International's
excellent work. We must build on that
momentum and ensure we remain optimisti¢
and ambitious. There's a quote l often return
to- "Don't agonise. organise"_ and that's
the spirit l intend to bring to this role.
My background in international development
and gids, education has given me a clear
understanding of the policy landscape and
how to influence decision makers. As Minister
for Sustainable Development and the UK'S
Special Envoy for Girls, Education, I worked
to put girls at the heart of the conversation in
global development. When the UK cut its aid
budgèt from 0.7% to 0.5% in 2020,1 resigned
as a Minister because I could nol support Ihat
decision. Seeing it reduced further to 0.3% this
year is gravely concerning. The consequences
will be felt worldwide. and the imF)Ortance of
Plan International's work has never been more
vital. l intend to use my platfomi, in Parliament
and beyond. lo amplify Plan Inlernational's voice
and ensure it continues to be a leading force
in shaping a more equitable future.

IYAP} has stretched me beyond my comfort
zone and helped me grow.

the advocacy of children's rights and gender
equality. We work in a team to inform the

to promote the rights of children and girls.
I have a passion for activism work and girls,
health, safety and education. The YAP stood
out to me as an opportunity to develop myself
and rny skills, gaining experience in this field.
I believe the focus on youth and sp8cifically
female voices in Ihis space is so necessary
and this is core to the YAP. Bringing together
perspectives across a range of demographics
which I recognise across the panel - provides
well-versed responses and allows effective
action. It's a platform that enables you to
grow and achieve.
Being able to learn consistently and gain
awareness across a variety of areas has b88n
such a ￿ward.. from humanitarian responses
to FX)licy making and campaigning. It has been
a great opportunity to grow in confidence,
speaking my mind and interacting with people
across the board.
After worf(ing with Plan International UK, l am
left feeling challenged, thinking about what
Still needs to be done.
A few highlights from my time include working
on the 2024 General Election manifesto and an
International Women'5 Day padiamentary event,
which provided access to conversations with
female MPS. It was inspiring, challenging and
eye-opening.
As this cohort continues our second year, I
hope lo see progress in attitudes towards
girls on a national level in the UK, as well
as the opportunity to be a part of more
campaigning work.

DELIVERING IMPACT
FOR CHILDREN
AND GIRLS
Our strategy Is new but our core focus
remains unchanged: we deliver impact
for children and girls.
That means delivering programmes around the
world that meet both urgent humanitarian needs
and long-terrn change. These are programmes
shaped and delivered with loc￿ communities
and partners. Arid they include our global child
sponsorship programme which strengthens
whole communities, ability to provide for
children and girls, unique needs.
It also means delivering bold campaigns and
influencing work, with girls, voices at the heart,
to challenge the systems and structures holding
them back.
To ènsuré this work has lasting impacl on
the lives of children and young people, we
are prioritising three cross-cutting areas in
all that we do..
Our ￿h0o1 is like a rnini-community where we
learn in class. fakg part in proj8cts and go back

Focusing on achieving equality for girls
By tackling the root causes of gender
inequality to make the world a better place to
be a girl, we work to create safer and more
just communities for everyone.
• Ensuring our approach is youth-centred
Placing young people at Ihe heart of what we
do means they meaningfully shape what has a
direct impact on their lives.
Impact through programmes
We continued our work combining both
humanitsrian and long-term development
programmes this year to help tackle the
biggest challenges facing children and
young people- with a particular focus on girls,
in all their diversity.
Respondlng to the grovAng cllmate crlsls
We address the impact of the climate crisis
across our work. speak out for climate justice
and help communities strengthen their
resilience to it.
Our programmes prioritise protecting children's
rights and keeping girls safe, learning and in
control of their bodies. This work is especially
important right now as humanitarian needs rise
and girls, rights increasingly come under threat.
You'll see these areas spotlighted acros5 this

Nearly 58,000 children around the worfd
were supported directly by over 54,300 UK
sponsors this year. With this generous support,
communities around the world have been able
to provide what children need to thrive- from
the chance to go to school to access to safe
water. All children in sponsored communities
where Plan International works benefit from
this support, whether or not they have an
individual sponsor- such as through essential
services like education and healthcare.
RevitalisTng chTld sponsorship
Sponsorship lies at the heart
of Plan International- it's a key
component of how we reach and impact
girls and young people. Looking fo￿ardS it's
important that our model delivers long-term,
sustainable change and reflects our anti-
racism and decolonisation principles.
Together with the Plan International family,
we're working to revitalise our sponsorship
programme- keeping the best of what
we have and building and expanding on it
so that we can appeal to new sponsors in
new ways and continue to have impact.

supported YAP member Neisha to attend the 58th
Commission on Population and Development
ICPDI at the UN in New York- a crucial global
forum. Neisha co-created and delivered a key
statement on behdf of the UK. representing young
people s views on accessing their rights, having
control over their bodies and their futures. It
was an important moment that amplified youth
voices and priorities in high-level diplomacy.
During this time, we saw positive commitments
to gender equality, both globally and here in the
UK, including a flagship commitment to halve
violence against women and girls by 2030.
Despite this positive start, the Government
announced in February that it would cut the
aid budget. This followed cuts by the US
Administration and other governments. In
response, we joined with other organisations to
highlight the risks of this decision for women and
girls and ensure they a￿ not disproportionately
affected. We supported YAP members to meet
their MPS at a Parliamentary lobby day and
launched new research with the Guttmacher
Insif(ute and MSI on the potential impact of aid
cuts. Through this worf( we have started critical
discussions with the Government on how to
minimise the risks aid cuts pose to gids- worf
which will continue throughout the next year.
We highlighted the impact the Sudan crisis
is having on girls and their comrnunities, and
demanded action. Working in partnership with
Sudanese activists and olhers, we gathered
13,000 signatures on our public petition ané
secured 26 celebrrty signatories on an open
letter urging the UK Government to do more
to save lives in Sudan. Our delivery of these
to Number 10 Downing Street generated
significant m&Jia attention. Despite the
cuts to the aid budget, the Government has
maintained that Sudan remains a priority and
have not cut funding, announcing £226.5
million for the Sudan and regional crisis. Whilst
welcome, there is much more work to be done
to help secure a ceasefire and meet the huge
humanitarian needs of this crisis.
Globally, movements to reverse hard-won
rights on gender equality are growing. We have
continued to push the Government to respond
boldly to the risks of this rollback on rights. We

YOUTH-CENTRED APPROACH
The research received widespread coverage in
media and was raised in Parliament by the MP
for Blackpool SoLrth, one of the UK places in
the report identified as toughest for girls.
Our State of Girls, Rights in the UK report
launched in July 2024 and was one of our
biggest exercises to date in listening to girls,
voices. Engaging over 3,(KK) girfs and
young women aged 12 to 21 through polling
and creative workshops, it gave an in-depth
understanding of issues they face.
We hosted a parliamentary launch event
co-created with youth groups and our Youth
Advisory Panel (YAPI. attended by the Minister
for Violence against Women and Girls. 18 other
MPS and over 110 others - more than a third
of them young people. Many MPS were new
to engaging with our work.
Our research showed that girls don't feel
safe, in public or online, and face relentless
pressure to look and act a certain way. They
feel unprepared by their education, worried
for future job prospects and scared by a
rising culture of misogyny.
This helped us build crucial new relationships
to keep up pressure on the Government
to deliver for gids, rights, demonstrate the
action that gids want, and restore girls,
trust in politicians.
47% of girls and young women said
expectations about how they should act, and
what they should be, hold them back in life.
52% of girls and young women said they are
anxious about their future.

STRATEGIC SHIFTS
Shiftin9 power to support locally led,
globally connected change
How Plan Intemational UK supports communiti8S
must change in rèsponse to both a commitment
to decolonise aid, and to deliver lasting impact in
a changing worfd.
Alongside our core focus, our strategy
includes progress against three areas where
we want to deliver a grealer change in what
we do and how we work. Dolng so wlll help
ensure we continue to deliver as much as
possible for girls and their communities
(￿er the course of our three-year Strategy, that
means steps to shift resources and decision
making to communities and partners that
enable and champion locally-led action.
These three strateglc shlfts Include:
Shifting power to support locally led,
globally connected change
Scaling up our humanitarian impact
Funding our impact
At the same time, we know the challenges facing
girfs and young people are complex and globally
interconnected. So while locally-led approaches
are essential, so too is global collaboration. We
call this approach locally led, globally connected.
To best deliver in these areas, we
are developing cross-organisational
Strategy Action Plans. These set clear
deliverables, timelines and metrics for
how we make these shifts. We are taking
an agile approach, ensuring we regularfy
review and adjust in order to achieve the
most progress possible. Strategic Action
Plans have already been developed for
'Funding our irnpact, and 'Scaling up our
humanitarian impact,, and the work done
this year in those areas reflects those plans.
Here are ol the stsps we've taken so far.

About Pledge for Change
The Pledge for Change is a series of
mulual commttments to re-imagine the
role of Internation￿ non-govemmental
organisations IINGOS) in the global
humanitarian aid and development system.
As a signatory. Plan International worf(s with
national and local organisalions worfdwide
to shift power to the global south to build
stronger aid ecosystem based on solidwity,
humility. setf-determination and equality,
and build a fairer future for all.
Scaling up humanitarian impact
We already reach millions of children affected
by humanitarian crises. But needs are rising as
conflict. climate change, and economic instabilty
fuel hunger, displacement and insecurity. Girls
in crisis face particular challenges and are
especialty vulnerable to violence and exploitation.
Looking forward, we will continue to build on
these partnerships and initiatives, priorilising
engagement with civil society allies. including
the Plan International family, other INGOS and
members of the Pledge for Change community.
We will also continue to provide technical
advice and support on the frameworks and tools
developed to meet our goals.
We have worked with th8 Plan Intèrnational

This means becoming even faster. Faster to

and with the Disaster Emergency Committee

To meet our ambitions to deliver change
for girls and their communities, we need to
inspire more income from individuals, partners

This year. Official Development Assistance
IODAI from the UK government and other global
donors declined sharply. Fortunately we had
already diversified our institLrtional donor base

Drawing attention and increasing funds for
crises that have a lower public profile in
the UK, such as the devastaling conflict in
Sudan, remains a challenge. However, by
Increasing our focus on our advocacy and
media work, and leading on coordinating wrth
other organisations, we contributed to raising
public awareness and the UK Government
committing £226.5 million to the Sudan crisis.
We also built on our reputation as a sector
leader in advancing gender equality in education
during humanitarian crises. Plan International
shared best practice from across five countries
with a wide range of stakeholders across
humanitarian networks and partnerships who
can integrate them in their own work. Through
this work we aim to support a global shift
toward fairer education systems. Ihat promote

MAKING CHANGE

However, we know we can do even better in
gathering and using evidence to continuously
enhance our impact and ensure our work

This is why we havè identifièd this as an
important focus for our strategy.
To deliver our core work and make our
important strategic shifts, we have idontifiod
two key enabler$ to help make Ihls change
possible: eviden¢e and learning, and

This year. we have:
Continued to invest in technology to help

approach. We work hard to continuously build
our understanding of what WOTks to deliv6r

Total income in the year ended 30 June 2025
was £61.7m, a £5.2m decrease from the prior
year. As expected. income from DEC appeals.
following the exceptional success of the Ukraine
appeal in eadier years. fell markedly. More
positively we saw significant growth in income
from Charitable Activities driven by increased
funding from the World Bank with whom we
continue to grow our record of successful
programme delivery. Fundraising from the
public continued to be challenging but we were
encouraged by the success of our emergency
appea15 in the year and Ihe continuing loyalty
of oLJr child sponsors.

Wodd Bank fvnding was up and provides an

added Global Partnerships for Education IGPE)
to our funder portfolio. Income from Education
Cannot Wait, the UN, and the UK Government
through FCDO remained stable in the year.
Charitable Activities Income from our major
partnerships grew by over 20% as we renewed
long standing partnerships, secured new
relationships and developed prospects.

The reported fall in other income was due to th8
loss of sub-letting income with a relocation to

be more-than-offset by cost savings over the
longer tem.
Donations decreased by £7.8m. from £36.9m
to £29.1 m. The fall in DEC income was
compounded by a reduced donation from

EXPENDITURE AND NET POSITION
that. over time. we deliver as much funding as
possible for delivery of charitable activities.
Expenditure in the year was £61.6m, a decrease
of £6.Om against the prior year. This reflects the
fall in income.
£51.9m, 84% of total expenditure, was used
to deliver charitable activrties. Expenditure on
humanitsrian response work decreased with the
scaling down of our child protection focused
Ukraine programming. However, expenditu
on long-temi development work increased
with spend focused on supporting inclusive
quality education and youth employment and
entrepreneurship (see earlier sections).
Following a significant scaling back of

RESERVES AND FUNDS
As at the year end the maximum level of

The charity holds three categories of reseNes:
1. Unrestricted Reserves comprising of:
General Reserves also known as
Free Reserves
b. Designated Reserves
2. RestriGted Reserves
General Rese￿eS were £11.3rn on 30 June
2025, down £1.Om, due to the in-year deficit
and capital investments. They nevertheless
remain £1.8m119%1 higherthan the maximum

General Reserves
General ReseNes are that part of a charity's
unrestricted funds that are available to spend
on any of the charity's purposes. Each year
the trustees review the res8Nes policy, which
specifies the level of general funds that should
be held.
Given exceptional uncertainty in future income
projections, consequent on major changes
to International Aid funding and priorities, the
board are content that the current reSe￿e level
is temporarily appropriate. While we anticipate
reducing reserves over corning years trustees
have decided to retain flexibilty on when funds
are deployed and how investment priorities are
balanced. Excess reserves have not therefore
been fom)ally designated.

year to 168 full-time and 22 part-time
employees at the end.
We have continued to focus on embedding
diversity and inclusion into all aspects of our
work. This year we carried out a Diversity and
Inclusion survey to obtain feedback from our
staff about the progress we have made and
what we could do better. We will use insights
frorn the survey to create a revised Action Plan
which will bring together both our Diversty and

Our M￿lian gender pay gap remains signrficantly
below the current national level of 8.6%.

prior to working with them.
We make sure our fundraising partners

we may receive.
Overall we have seen an increase in the
proF)Ortion of employees from ethnic minority
backgrounds in the workforce. with increases
across all pay quartiles.
The decrease in our Ethnicity Pay Gap this year
is due to a change in the distribution of those
frorn minority ethnic backgrounds across the
pay quartiles and is being driven by an increase
in those from minority elhnic groups in the Iwo
highest pay quartiles.

improving inclusion in our workplace and

Our reseNes policy requires us to hold
sufficient funds to deal with financial shocks
not anticipated in annual plans and budgets.
Through its Country Offices, Plan International
carries out programmes which create a better
future for millions of children around the world.
Most of our programmes take place in the
countries where Plan International sponsored
children live. Plan International UK'S funds are
granted to Plan International Inc for work in
Plan International Country Offices and local

and sponsorship commitments.
GOING CONCERN
To support the going concern assessment,
income and expenditure forecasts to 2030
have been prepared. We have modelled a
range of plausible mart(et, performance, and
investment scenarios. Cost, investment and
income plans have been brought into line for
our central projections and, in all cases, we are
confident that action5 could be taken to ensure
our continued financial viability- Healthy reserve
levels provide enhanced financial resiliency
and the ability to protect programme funéing
if market conditions prove more challenging
than anticipated.
We also partner with, and make grants to, other
charities. These charities are selected based on
their gov8rnanc8, values and their capability to
enhance impact for children around the world.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Reserves and operational cash are held in
current accounts or on lixed-interest deposit
at banks or other institutions with high credit
ratings lat least upper medium grade) as set
out in our treasury and inv8Stm8nt policy.
Plan International UK holds no listed or other
equity investments, with the investments in
subsidiaries ￿ferred to below, and no bonds
or other tradable securities.
Plan International UK has strong liquidity and
in case of financial shocks there would be
sufficient cash to sustain the organisation,
whilst mitigating actions were taken.
¢lJr programme activities are majority funded
by ￿$triCted income. which is secured from
donors based on agreed project deliverables.
Whilst our current funding pipeline remains
strong we have revised forward projections
in light of the UK and global aid cuts and
have modelled severe downside scenarios. In
downside scenarios, project deliverables would
be scaled back in line with the lower income
and as such, while downscaling would be
required, this would not represent a rnajor risk
to Plan International UK as a going concern.
Most receivables relate to contracts with
established institutional donors and the
risk of default is considered very low. Most
suppliers are paid in arrears and all substantial
suppliers undergo due diligence before
contracts are agreed.
Foreign currency risks on ftjnding awards
delivered through Plan Internalional Country
Offices are managed and underwritten by
Plan International Inc IPIII. Funds are typicalty
passed to Pll treasury soon after receipt-
Most direcl costs are denominaled in sterfing.
Plan International UK does not therefore bear
significant foreign currency risk and does not
hold forward contracts.
Our planning processes, including financial
projections and ￿serveS FX)licy, have taken
into consideration the current economic and
political climate and its potential impact on
future income. We believe thal there are no
further material uncertainties that call into
doubt our ability to continue to operate and

assurance about whether the financial
statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether duè to fraud or èrror,
and to issue an auditor's reFX)rt that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high
level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS
(UK) will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
fraud or emr and are considered material if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the
basis of these financial statements.
We have nothing to report in respect of the
following matters in relation to which the

the extent to which non-compliance might have
a material effect on the financial statements.

events and transactions reflected in the financial
statements, as we will be less likely to become
aware of instsnces of non-cornpliance. The risk
is also greater regarding irregularities occurring
due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves
intentional concealment. forgery. collusion,
omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for

capital additions less depreciation and amortisation
charyes and dispos￿ losses.
The financial statements have been prer)ared on
a going concern basis under the historical cost
convention. Under 'Going Concern. on page
42 the trustees state that they have reasonable
expectation that there are no material uncertainties
that call into doubl our ability to continue in
operation and meet our liabilities as they fall duè.
Consequently, the trustees have a reasonable
expectation that the Group will continue in existence
for al least the next 18 months and, the￿10￿, have
adopted the going concern basis in preparing these
financial statgmgnts.

current asset value of the trading subsidiary.

when probale is granted and there is sumicient
Information to value them and any condttions

U) Flnanclal Instruments
Plan International UK has financial assets a￿1
liabilitiès that qualify as basic financial instrum8nls.
They ar8 measured as follows..
1018usiness cornbinations
Business combinations are accounted for as an
acquisition. The cost of a business combination
is the fair vdue of Ihe consideration paid and
payable plus the costs directly attributable to the
business combination. Where the consideration
paid and payable exceeds the value of the net
asset5 acquired, goodwill arises on acquisltion and
is disclo￿1 in the consolidated balance sheet.
'Go(*lwill' is an intsngible fix9d asset which is
amortised over its useful lrfe. GcK)dwill is reviewed
for impamient at each bpjance-sheet date.
Cash
Cash held at bank and in hand
Initially at settlement amounl after
any trad8 discounts. Subs6quenlty at
cash or other consideration expected
lo be received.
Debtors
Initially at settlement amount after
any tradè discounts. Subs8quenlty at
cash or other Consideration expected
to be paid.
Creditors
Plan Intematlona UK Ttustees. Annu￿ Rerth2ff25

In accordance with FRS 102. intangible assets
acquired as part ol an acquisition are only
recognised separatety from goodwill where it is
probable that the expected future economic benefils
that are attributable to the asset will flow to the
entity,. and the Cost or value of the asset can k
measured reliably.
Cost allocation
The cosl allocation methodology requires judgement
as to what are the most appropriate bases to use to
apportion 5UPPOrt costs; these are reviewed annually
for reasonableness. Support Costs are allocated as
explained in policy 1d.
Locally received income
Locally received income is income where the
contract signatories are the donor and the relevant
Plan International country ottice. However, the de
facto fund manager is Plan International UK, who
provides support and oversight to the country
office. The income arising from such awards is
thus recognised by Plan International UK. Incoma
from charitable activities is detsil&l in accounting
licy 1d.
{pl Critical accounting judgements and key
sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the group's accounting policies.
the trustees are required to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying
amount5 01 assets and liabilities that are not readily
apparent from other sources. These judgements,
estimates and assumptions are mad& based on a
combination of past experience. professional expert
advice and other relevant evidence
Sponwrship
Ghild sponsorship is judged to be unrestricted
income and not restricted to a particular caus8
because it is wholly aligned with the charity's
objects. Sponsors have a one-to-one connection
with the child they spon50r and donations are
usad lo fund vitsl projects. baneliling whole
communities in the country where the sponsored
child lives and therefore it is rea80nable to ag888S
the income as unrestricted.
The Iruslees consider that there are no key sourc8S
of estimation uncertainty as at 30 June 2025.
however the following critical accounting judgements
have been identified below..
Revenue recognltlon
Due lo the range and complexity of the group
funding streams, revenue recognition is deemed to
be an area that requires judgemgnl to appropriate

Foster Parents Plan Intemational (UIQ Ltd is a trading company Tegistwed in England and Wath as company
number 02457093, whose main activities are the licensing of the use of Plan Intwnational UK trademarks to third
parties, and carrying out other non-primary purpose trading actNities. In prvx years the company also managed
s￿letY lotteries. Each year the subsidiary makes a charitable dontion under a deed of covenant of any taxabl8
profits to Plan Intemationa IUK. At 30 Jun& 2025 thè investment in Foster Parents Plan Intern*iond (UK) Ltd was £2.
Plan International UK acquired 100% of the share capttal of Social Development Direct ISDDirectl on 30 June
2020 lor £1,706,000. SDDiwt has been consistently piolitable since acquisition until 2024125 and all profits
have been remitted to the parent charity. In 2024125 the dramatic and unexpected cuts in UK and global aid
lad to losses. Following restructuring SDDirect is expected to return lo p￿rit in 2025126 but longer term profit
projections have been downgraded, reflecting lower income proj'ections. As such the value of the charity's
investment has been impaired in the year. The revised valuation, tO.7m, is judged to represent fair value given
profit projections and risks.
