President's Review for the year ended 31 December 2025 l am dellghted to report that the CHSG continues to evolve both In respert of the make up of the Board of Trustees but also the ¢ontent and delivery ol the vital trainin8 il provides to the industry- whehter the organisation that need5 our assistan¢e rs an SMI or a fier One Contractor. I very much welcome severèl new Trtsstee5 to the 8oafd durlng 2025. Details of the new appointees and their considerable experience are set out later in the Annual Report. Refieshin8 the leadership is vltal In any organi5ation- no less so, CH5G. We look forward to their addltional insights and renewed energy. We are grateful to them lor findin8 tlme In their busy professional careers to make a contribution. The quallty of the construction businesses they represent is a testament t the contlnulne relevance of C.H.SG within the indiisiry. We may be a relatively small or8naisatiofj but we have always punched above our weight whèn il come5 to engagement with regulator5 and industry bodies. Sadly in 2025 we had thè news that Gavln 8ye of Costaln was resigning from Board having served wlth the Trusiees for eight and a half years. We understand that work commltrnents change In the day-lob and we wSsh Gavin well and hope to see hlm back at the centre in the future. CHSG ha5 had a long assotiation with Costain 80ing back many years and the Trustees and CSHG management wlll contlrtue to explore how we can maintain that en8a8emeni for the future. As a 51gn of the CHSG'5 relevance I was pleased to be Invlted as President In February to an exploratory meeting convened by Cancer Research and sènlor people wlth the industry. Thi5 world leadin8 charitv Intends to establish a new groupln8-"Construction 8eats Conce, a sector Iniatlve to not only raise funds to rèsearch for new caneér treatments but also to ralse awareness wlthln the construction workforce, many of whom are part of a hl8h-rlsk demoBraphic, Unlike other sectors, the ¢onstructlon Industry has the potential to do much more than ralse awareness and funds. Together we can actually reduce the risks of work related cancers for Indlvlduals In the way that we manage exposure to dust, si1Sca and other carcon8enlc materlals such as chemica15, and ol course- asbestos. It Wa5 gieat that CHSG was invited to the Fran¢is Crick Institute In Klngs Cross to consider how thls goes forward and we will no doubt contlnuè tts en8a8e wlth Cancer Research as thls develops. I know that they were particularly Interested In how they might reach people worklng In 5ME's wlthln the supply thaln. Thls i55ue of wellbeing and occupatlonal health is entlrely ¢onsi5tent wlth what we are seelng more wldelv wlth a much greater emphasis on health than ever before. For example, in my Tole at Plnsent Masons we have experlenced flrst hand enforMent engagement w5th the HSE In 2025 around stress managemeht and a150 a number of Coroner Inquests relating to death by 5ulclde, notlng the Intentlon of coroners to look more closely than before at surroundln8 factor5 relatlng tts individuals. This was reflected In our annual legal update that focussed more on health issues than safely and whlch brought news to CHSG members of a new 8ritlsh Standard relatlng to sulclde and work related matters. On a personal note my thanks to all th05e who attended the le8al update in person or on line- Ihe numbers attendin8 really did feel like the old pre<ovid daysl I would like to flnlsh by once 08aln givSng my sincere thanks to our trainers, the Offlce Staff at Chertsey and the Trusteès for all the hard work that 8oes on behind the scenes. And of course to all the CHSG members and other organisation5 who support the group and undertakè training wlth us. Without this virtuous circle of Trusiees, Staff and the Industry we really could not achieve all that we have. I would like to take this opportunSty to wlsh you all a very p105perous, healthy and Safe 2026 and we look forward to working with you all over the comlng year. Sean Elson President CHSG.
Trustees, Annual Report (incorporating director's report for the year ended 31 December 2025 Reference and Administrative Information The Trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Att, subrnit their annual report and the audlted fSnancial statements of Construction Health and Safety Group (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2025. The Tru5tee5 confirm that the annual report and the financlal statements comply with current Statutory requirement5, the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice1SORPI FRS102 Statement of Recommended Prartice Charlties (July 20141. The Construction Health and Safety Group Is a leading provider of health and salety training and Information to the UK Construction Industry. CHSG has 142 member5 of its safety group and has over 74 years. experience in helplng ihe construction and as50cSated Industrles to understand and rneet health and safety requlrernent5 and implement natlonal standard5. Significant Activities Durln8 2025. although both the economic and investment performance for the year were very volatlle, the Group were able to return to a more balanced tralnlng programme and the perforrnance of the group wa5 posltbvely Impacted by the Flre Academy and the courses developed lor it. However, the poor performance of the Bulldlng Safety Regulator and the plethora of new legislation, Britlsh Standards and assoclated qua55 legal documentatlon has meant that it has been challenging to ensure that all the fire courses have always incorporated all of the required leglslative Ilnks and more importantly Incorporated these Into the appropriate courses. However, on a rn0 posltlve note, the Group are delighted to conflrm that all of the thlrd partv recognition and all of the course re8lStrations have been maintained and we have had a very posltive audltlng performance. 8Si no non- conformances recorded. CISRS, no non- conformances recorded, SQA no non- conformances recorded and finally we successfully passed the flve yearly IFE audSt which links directly to the profe55ional siandard of our Fire Diploma course, wlth the contlnued EducatSonal Programme attainment. In Q2 we also recelved no non-conformances for the CITB audit too, so a very successful auditlng performance, ensuring that we maintained ihe hlgh standard of course content and course management at the centre and at Clients sites. Internal Audits have been undertaken over a broad range of our tourses th55 year, and a number of qualified auditors have been used to undertake this work. We identified area5 for improvement and all auditors fed back to the Trainers as well as the centre, on each occasion. and were very positive overall about the competence of the Tralner5 and the great support and commitment they have provided to the Group. The audit procedure is always a useful event, which ensures the Group reviews, systems, procedures and workin8 methods and alway5 raises discussions about how to work smarter, more efficiently and effectlvely to benefit all concerned. We are continuing to develop and enhance our procedures and
systems using the information received on our updated and enhanced Client and Dele8ate feedback 5y5tem, which ensures we review performance on a regular basis. from an alternative source. A150 in 2025, the Group employed a fulltirne Fire Trainer, who ha5 been developlng additional training courses and updating the diploma course materièls throughout 2025. During 2025, we changed the monthly meeting format, to a quarterly format, but wo have struttured the mcotinE to Include two or three speakers, rolatcd to a particular rubject are?. We trialed this forrnat to see if this would provide a more structured trainin& development and networking meeting which has proved to be far more successful than the original one speaker every rnonth. So this format wlll be continued Into 2026. The Christmas meeting also included the training awards, as most members have been reticent to return to a black tle dlnner, which was the regular event prior to Covid. Unfortunately, this will be the standard forrnat until the Board decide to return to a different format. The centre has undertaken a limited number of maintenance actlvlties during 202S'. al The painting of the common areas of the centre, the areas that have a higher footfall and had started to look iired, it was agreed that we needed to maintain a 8ood appearance for all Iraiiiers and delegates. bl Three new camerès and a new maln hub for the security and alarm sy5tem5 fnr thp rpntrp, this Included the storage capacity from all of the cameras on the 51te too. We also took the opportunlty to update sorne of the older wlring and to update three of the older cameras, $18nlficantly Improvlng the vlsual clarlty of the car park and entrance area, this has improved clarity both In office working hours, but more importantly durlng out of hours. cl The SIM card to the external gates had to be thanged, thls year to accommodate the changes to the phone network system in Chertsey, again th15 was 5uccessftslly completed. All the Tralners attended the Trainers Meeting alon8 Wlth two office staff, and the board were represented by the Chalr and the Vice Chalr of the Board of Trustees. The meetinB was a positive discussion for all partles and a number of posltlve outcomes and actSons were documented and are turrently or have already been successful implemented/ successfully actloned. In 2024 a revised 85 5975 was produced and the standard has now been split Into two Britlsh Standard documents- BS 5975'.12024 and BS5975'.2 2024. CITB then updated all of their course paperwork Iln early 20251 relatlng to the suite of temporary works courses and all of the course materials were amendedlupdated etc accordlngly, well wlthin the requlred CIT8 timescale. In 2025 CISR5 a150 revlsed thelr centre contrarts, and the course materials for theSr 3 day Basic Scaffold Inspectlon course, again we have successfully amended all of our course materials and presentstlon documentatlon accordingly, well within the agreed tlmeframe. Directors Board Meetln8S Contlnued throughout the year and also Included the Management Review In October 2025 and the Flnancial review in November 2025. The Board Inclvding all of the new members have worked tirelessly for the Group, but unfortunately we had to accept the resignation of Gavin Bye from Costain, whose work commitments In 2026 have meant that he wa5 unable to commlt to the Groups Board programme. Bui If his work load change5 in the near future, we would welcome his return and the added support from Costain and he confirmed that he would be delighted io return. The annual report and accounts were successfully tompleted by the external auditors at the beginning of 2026, for the annual financial reporting year of January- December 2025. We successfully exhlbited at the IFSM, FSM Fire Technlcal Event at the Coventry Arena and have now successfully achieved accreditation with IFSM for all of our new Fire courses, SQA recognitSon for the three main courses.. The Fire Diploma, the Fire Risk Asse55or5 and the Fire Safety Coordinator courses,
all related directly to Construction. This is an excellent achievement by all involved an(1 we must ensure that this is now marketed in the comlng year. The Group are 3150 involved with a number of eernal committees and construction related groups, which should ensure that we maintain our networking and maintaln our direct links with the construction industry. It also helps to SUPPOrt our training Staff with respect to CPD and to maintain the information and learnin8 from the sector. We have also maintained offlce staff support to attend and tjndertake learnin8 seminars and Ilnks to ensure that we keep staff up-to-date and aware of any new and incoming legislation etc. The area for significant changes in legislatSon over the past year has been with respect to both fire in Construction and also forthcoming employment laws, regulations and HR related issues. Again trainlng has been undertaken specifically with respect to the new Employment Laws which will be comlng In from April 2026 and then wlll be added to on a 6 month basis, for at least a further two years. Courses have therefore already been undertaken to ensure we start to develop our procedures and systems accordlngly. It also led to the Group moving their payroll to Bri8htHr in Q3 2025, this company have already integrated the new payroll 5yStem5 and protocols required for compllance to the new leglslatlon being introduced shortly. We will be liai51nB wlth our HR legal support consultant5 Peninsula early in 2026 to start the addltional work requlred to ensure conformance by April 2026 with respect to our staff handbook and our staff contracts. In 2024, the group made a sSgnifScant decislon to develop thelr charitable support by worklng wlth Ready for the Gate In developin8 constructlon related skill based courses for offenders and to start working Wlth a ROTL'S women'5 pr550n where we are developlng an employment structure to 5LlPPOrt offenders to flnd lobs In the constructSon sector whllst completSng thelr sentence5. Thls wa5 further developed in 2025 and also Included one member of staff belng Invlted to slt on the Employment Advisory Board of a second local women'5 prbson. Thls has developed well and further detall wlll be Sncluded In the Charltable section of this report. This change in our charitable support was decided upon by the board, as the take up for mental health courses has decllned and also the support of the night shelters on an actlve monthly bas15, Stopped during Covld and has not slnce been activated. The Group have now changed their support for the night shelters a5 an annual donation, along wlth the annual donation for the Lighthouse charity. Also wlth the successful tralnlng of many slte personal on the Train the TraSner courses. the call on CHSG subsldlzed Mental Health courses, has been reducin& so we have decSded to put more effort In supportln8 those from the prlson system, wlth direct Ilnks to the Constfuctlon and associated sectors. Centre Maintenance There were two maintenance actSvltles suttessfully completed in 2025- The flrst was the installatlon of three new external securlty cameras, alon8 Wlth the a550clated wlrlng upgrade. This was also supported by a new maln base system, that has Increased the storge facllltyi thus storing past footage for longer and also allgnin8 Wlth the new requlrement to link wlth the mobile antennae in the area I with the loss of the BT line servlcel. We also took the opportunity to upload an Improved remote app access on mobile phones for both Debbie and Sera for 2417 remote acces5. The secontl Improvement was the painting of the centre in the delegate area5, to ensure that the standard of the facilitie5 has remained as clean and well presented. this is the flrst re-paint since the refurbishment in 2016.
The centre has also invested in both hardware and 50ftware wlth ihe purchase in 2025 of new laptops with Windows 11 software, ensuring that all of the training laptops and software are now all upgraded. $0 all staff now have the required standard equipment. There wa5 one action that was related to the Chertsey areas BT phone line upgrade, which meant that the external elettrlc Bate5 had to have a SIM card replacement. This upgrade was a requirement to ensure that they functioned correctly golng forwards. Th15 work has now meant that we have reduced the cost of one landline to the centre, this was a dedicated Ilne. Staffing The office staffing was increased to five full time employees during 2025, as we have employed a fulltime Trainer. We also had the sad loss of one of our Temporary Works tralners who also covered scaffolding training too. Jo Affinito died suddenly in early 2025 and will be sadly missed by us all, So later in 2025, we started to develop a successlon plan for all of the courses and for the centre staff. To this end we have started to train a potentlal new scaffold tralner, but we are stlll flndlng It a challenge to recrult a new TW trainer. We have also, sucte55fully recruited a new fire consultant who ha5 a wealth of both fire and construrtlon knowledge and experience, who we have engaged to work willi Iiviii Jdlludry 2026, wlivn he bècornes avallable. The new fsre trainer has already worked wlth CHSG on an ad hoc ba$15, but wlll now becorne an excellent 5UPPOrt for thSs area of tralnlng. All, except for one of our trainers, remain as self- employed, but we are very particular that all of our Trainers should have all of the required professional and 3cademSc qualificatlons for the role, alongside slanificant Constructlon experlence, so that they understand the roles and respon5ibilltles of our delegates and can support them In thelr questlon5 and querles- It Is an aspect of training that the Group has always placed high Smportance on and we flnd our ClSents and Delegates always value thls addltlonal expertlse too. Charitable Support and Donations Membershlp numbers have again reduced sll8htly during this year malnly In the SME sector. On revlew, thi5 Ilnks into the tralnlng requirements of SME'S anil we see the annual trend of rnembershlp and re- application when specific training is due to maintaln thelr costs effectively. But we have still gained new members on a monthly basls over the last year, and we hope to continue to attract new memberslbusinesses in the year ahead. The Group has Continued to, wherever possible, support rnembers- In partlcular SME'S $0 fees have been reviewed and supportlve options discu55ed, to hopefully ensure that SME'S can retain thelr links with the Group and all that membershlp offers to them. At the end of the year the Group donated to two charitles namely Glass Door who were speclflcally aimin8 to ralse money for their 2025 Xmas appeal. The second donation was sent to the Lighthouse charlty supporting the Construction Industry. This money w35 paid, instead of orderlng CHSG Chrlstmas cards, as many charities are finding funding more difficult thi5 year. We hope that all of our members and guests accepted our email Christmas greetings instead? The significant subsldisation of the Mental Health First Aid England courses,11 day, 3 day and half day awareness courses) have a150 reduced In attendance, we belleve that this has been directly linked into the su¢ce55ful training of MHFA in the Construction sector well supported by the CITB and Tier One Contractors. Although the group still promotes this training support and financial sub51dliètlon, there
has been a successful development for a new form of training and 5UPPOrt for HMP prisons in the development of Dry Lining courses. In 2025 the group has been working Sn partnership with 'Ready for the Gate" In 2025 the new scheme has successfully developed Dry Lining courses ai HMP Coldingley and HMP High Down. Both prisons have been provided wlth the required training, equipment and training course materials to completely support the two dry lining courses and HMP Hi8h Down successfully completed their first three courses by the end of December 2025. They have also ensured that all of their attendees have also successfully completed the CITB C5CS red card. Which will hopefully help the individuals to become employable as ex-offenders, in the near future. The group has also supported Debble Clarkson who sits on the Employment AdvS50ry Board (EA81 of HMP Send a women's pri50n where dlfferent Support and Investment has been provided and thls work wlll continue in 2026. This has also led to links with other supportive charitable gTOUPS where we can hopefully develop the recruitment optlons avallable to ex-offenders and to develop further support for employment in the constructlon sector going forwards. The EAB agreed three main drivers for thelr mlsslon in 2025 and we are dellghted to confirm that that the committee have Smproved In all three drivers working closely with the prison management team. The new mission drivers wlll be conflrmed at the january 2026 meetin& ready for the year ahead. We have also developed a draft Mentoring Course. for those who are, or wlll be mentoring ex-offenders in the construction sector. The 8roup working wlth RFG have undertaken all of the development work FOC and we have also purchased 50ftware to be able to provlde case studies using on screen avatars. Thls Is a new development for the Group, and has been used on this course development first, as the need for confidentiality and anonymity is obviously far greater. than for other courses. We have successfully completed flve case studles to date. Again, this ha5 been fully subsldized by the Groups charitable support. Also flre development work has contlnued to be funded by the Group to develop addltlonal course5 and to a150 Customlze courses to SLlPPOrt thi5 work for the sector to support costs and maintaln the emphasls on tralnin8 for the construction and associated Industrles. No company has been asked to contribute to the course development costs, as we belleve th55 development should be for the benefit and safety of the Industry members goln8 forwards. Also wlth the increased range of accredltation bodle5 used, the Investment from the Broup in these professlonal bodies has also Increased, but Is valued a5 an essentlal part of current course development for the sector. A5 previously detalled, the updated 655975 Parts l & 2 led the group to update all of the Temporary Works courses In Ilne wSth the CITB requlred dates learly 20251, agaSn completely FOC to any delegates. We also successfully gained SQF verlficatlon for the Fire Safety Coordinaior In Construttion Course, galnln8 a Level 5 with 2 credlt point5. We were dellghted this year, to host speakers for our quarterly meetings, we have continued to develop the format of hosting 2 or 3 speakers on a quarterly ba515 rather than one speaker on a monthly basis, as this has been identified as a preferable format by our attendees. We have continued to open these presentation5 UP to any person, who wishes to attend, thu5 building on our charitable support for the industry and thls now offers the meeting attendance to other industrie5 too. Agaln our charitable support is to encourage and support those attending wlth respect to enhancing undersiandin8 and the exchange of best practlce and an ability to network. We 5UPPOrted the CONIAN working group for the Working Well Together Commlttee for Fire Risk Management. again supportlng this work from our charitable support. The importance of this committee by the Regulator has now led to thi5 committee being stand alone, father than being part of a group of rlsk management committees. So going forwards, in 2026 the commlttee will be requlred to
ensure the outcomes are clear and foiu5ed from thls separate risk group. The work and outcomes of the group will now be hosted on the new CICIHSE website. We also exhibited at the IFSM Technical day at the Coventry arena for a third year and found the engagement at this exhSbition was busy and the aims and objectives, along with the course development presented by the Group w35 well received. We have already booked our stand for 2026, along with a second exhibition with the same provlders to be held at Kempton Racecourse in March 2026. We have also started to develop a separate area on our website to detail our charltable activitiès and this will be launched in 2026. ACHIEVEMENT & PERFORMANCE Investment performance The initial sum of £660,000 was Invested In 2016 and has grown to £819,084 in our long term CCLA investment accouiit. Tliis iriveslment was very volatlle over the last twelve rnonths, but overall did not produce a proflt thés year and In fact, fell compared to the previous year. But the Group appreclated that thSs Ss a long term Investment and has made some significant gain5 over the last few years. The Group wlll continue to build on the overall long term Investment. The external stock market will alway5 produce year5 of both positive and negative performance. Desplte this volatility, we are pleased to conflrm that we recelved Income earned from our Investments, that we were able to support both the Ll8hthou5e and Gla$5 Door along wlth subsldizlng the one day and two-day mental health course5 throughout the year and our work wSth the pri50n5 and the further development of fire courses without havin8 to require any fundln8 from the industry. The tstheT investment account 55 managed by CCLA under a deposlt account and at the end of 202S, the total In thls account was £56,309, agaln a slight decrease on the prevlous year. The Barclays current account was £56,245, agaln, sllghtly down compared to last year's figures. GSven the current economlc climate in the UK, particularly for the constructlon and associated sectors, it is unsurprising that the deferred sheet for 2026 is also reduced compared to 2025, but the team are working hard to maintaln conslstent level of tralnlng for 2026. It is a150 important to note that the group has had no bad debts to actlon this past year and the debtors Ilst remaln5 very well mana8ed. Due to the consistent amount of course development in 2024 and 2025 we have seen a 8rowlnB delivery In the new courses and a healthy mix of both new and current CHSG course5, across the yèar. Th55 has tonfirmed that the ROI was well justified and has reaped the reward5 consldered during the development worklng groups mandate. Thls work has been very positive, and we hope that it will P051tively impact on the performance in 2026. We hope to posltlvely use the conslderable development Costs over the last few years, to embed the current Courses and to then use this sound base from whlch to identify any further development I investment for the coming year. We are also pleased that the Investment in the third party accreditations associated with this work, has also proved to be well received by the sectr)r and thus justifying thi5 51andard of accreditation ind reco8nitlon. io
FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial Position Our revenue was positlve In 2025, we have used a significant arnount of this money to invest In the course development and also to develop our charitable development work, including updating the website and continuing to invest In a standard for our Marketlng, so we hope to embed and to launch more of this work In 2026, aslwhere approprbate. Gr05s proflt percentage, is 55% for 2025, down from 59% In 2024, Ilkely due to the Increase In employment Costs. We have a150 increased the number of trainers and again this will be increasing In 2026. The revenue Is detalled as follows.. Non Fire Courses £207,833 Non Flre External courses E 12,756 Remote closed courses £ 36,338 Fire Acudemy £286.573 Member5hlp £50,939 Nomlnal Income £2,055 rotol Incomefor the yeor£596,494 A reductlon In Income of 11.5% (from £674,327J staff cost5 £362.141 hove increosed os the group h05 now Incorporoted the employment of afull- time tralner. Cost of Sales £177,051 R&D £56,338 Publiclty & Morketlng £ 34,492 The fire courses were 53% of total course earnings and 48% of total income, thus confirmlng the strategSc development and R&D spend over the last two year5, wlth a good ROI to date. In addltion to thls the Charltles long-term and short-term investment accounts suffered in Ilne wlth lobal investment Impacts, which led to a reduction In the valuation of £41,179. Overall the Charlty made a loss of £76,415. However, £41,686 was depreclation and £41,179 wa5 Investment loss. If you disregard these two figures to identify the strict operating positlon, the Group showed a small profit of £6,450. In addStion the group ha5 capital assets of £1,079,491 and has maintalned a good cashflow sltuation throughout the year, finishing with both the current business account and the deposit account In positive posltlon. Along with the longer term investment, that throughout the year has mirrored the volatility in the investment markets, but overall the group is still in a healthy position. li
Investment pollcy and objectives The charity operates a low-risk strategy for both of the CCLA investments that it holds. The funds in the short-term deposit and investment fund5 SUPPOrt the Group to function on a day-to-day basis, and in 2025 provided the support funding to continue the development work and charitable support. All maintenance work was scheduled, and no emergency costs were identified for the year. The aim is to continue to run the investment accounts as per the previous year. Resenies Policy The charity consider5 its reserves policy on a regular ba51s, and the Board undertook an annual strategic financial review during the Novernber Board Meeting in 2025. The strategy was revlewed and conflrmation was detailed In the Board documentation, to ensure that appropriate reserves are maintained to support the Group. The strategy of maintaining the ability to fund future course development costs, any necessary upgrades to the centre and the facilities, and any unforeseen repairs and malntenancc requirements, remains the Same. AL 31, December 2025, the net assets of the Group excluding property and other tangfjble fixed assets were £906,699. The freehold property was valued Sn December 2022 on an existln8 use basis al £810,OLK). It is shown In the balance sheet, at cost less atcumulaled depreciation, at £157,953 Ithls valuation 15 undertaken on è five yearly bd5151. FUTURE PLANS The Group wlll contlnue to develop, the Flre Sn Construttlon range of course5 and we already have two new eourse option5 for consideration in early 2026 whSch If they go forward io development wlll be presented to IF5M for assessment in 2026. We wlll also contlnue to develop the'be5poke courses" where Cllents, who prefer to hold "closed cour5e5" detailing thebr specific procedure5 and systems In accordance wlth thelr workSng systems, will be provided as requested.
