Objectives and Activities
inspire real-world aGtion for a more sustainable planel. Our core mission is to educate millions of people
globally aboul the complex environmental and sustainability challenges we face, moving beyond headlines
to explore the nuances of issues like climate change, biodiversty loss, and social equty. We don't just
highlight problems; we showcase the innovative and scalable solutions that can create a better, more just
future for all. Our work is achieved through the production and global distribution of impactful films, and
the promotion of environmental narratives across digital plafforms, educational nelworks, and high-profile
intemational events.
Achievements and Perforniance: A Year of Continued Impact
Despite operating within a challenging financial landscape, 2024 was a year of significant strategic activty
and unwavering dedicalion to our mission. We focused on strenglhening our core programmes, forging
new and influential partnerships, and pioneering innovative methods of outreach to connect wilh a new
generation of global citizens.
Expanding Our Digital Legacy: Preserving a Four-Decade Chronicle
Our vital work to digitise our unique film archive, which represents a four-decade chronicle of
environmental history, has continued apace. In 2024, our dedicated team successfully preserved an
additional 600 films, safeguarding these invaluable assets from physical degradation and making them
secuie for future generations. This project is more than just preservation. il is the creation of a
comprehensive online library that will serve as a key educational resour￿. This ensures that our
invaluable historical record of environmental thought, action, and debate will be accessible to researchers,
students, and the public worldwde.
Innovating with New Media: The 'Decade of Destruction, Graphic Novel
in a fomiat that is both familiar and compelling. We began developing an interactive online graphic novel
based on our award-winning, landmark film series, 'Decade of Destwction,, whlch was shot in the Amazon
rainforest belween 1980 and 1990. This innovative project is a strategic rnove to adapt the powerful,
timeless Tnessages from the original films into a modem. interactive digital experience. By doing so, we
ensure that the series. critical environmental narrative on deforestation and indigenous rights continues to
resonate with younger, digitaknative audiences in a medium they can connect with directly and share
widely.
Nurturing Future Talent: Mentorshlp and Professlonal Development
tve is deeply committed to fostering the next generation of media and environmental professionals. In
2024, we proudly mentored 24 students and young people, providing them with structured, hands-on
opportunities to work alongside our experienced team. These mentees were integrated into key strategic
projects, including the archival digitisation and the creative development of the new graphic novel. This
programme gave them invaluable, real-world insights and practical experience in the environmental
slorytelling industy, equipping them with the skills and confidence to become futuie leaders in the field.

Growing the tve StoryHub: A Global Community for Change
Following its successful launch in late 2023, our orr platforni, the fve StoryHub, has become
central pillar of our global distribution strategy. Throughout 2024, we have consistently enriched the
platform with compelling new content, including digitised classics from our archive and new, thought-
provoking films from our partners. The StoryHub is proving to be an essential tool for reaching a
wider, more diverse global audience, allowing us to build a dedicated community of engaged
viewers and significantly further our environmental education rnission.

Elevating Sustainability Discourse on the Global Stage
In 2024, fve continued to host and participate in impactful discussions on a global scale. We were
proud to have a significant P￿sence at the Cannes Filrn Festival, where we contributed to a vital
discussion on "Women in Cinema and Sustainabilty," a strategic intervention to place
environmental issues and female leadership at the heart of the intemational film industry. Our
annual Charity Golf Day, a comerstone fundraising event, was successfully held at the prestigious
RAC Club, serving as a key networking event that brought together our valued supporters and
stakeholders. A summer reception was also graciously hosted by our trustees to showcase tve's
ongoing projects and raise aWa￿nesS for the upcoming COP29.

at the iconic BAFTA 195 Piccadilly, London. The awards, global prestige continues to grow,
attracting an impressive 98 entries from across 28 dtfferent countries, demonstrating the event's
truly intemalional reach and influence. In a significant new partnership, tve collaborated with
University College London (UCL), which brought academic rigour and fresh perspectives to the
judging process by hosting the awards, shortlisting on its campus. The awards celebrated the
outstanding work of companies and institutions in communicating sustainability, and the nominated
films were showcased on our tve.media platform, inspiring industry peers and a global audience to
aim for higher standards in their own communications.
Financial Review
The 2024 financial year has been one of significant challenge for the charity, reflecting a difficult
fundraising climate for the non-profit sector as a whole. Total incoming resources were £66,075, a
substantial decrease frorn £95,026 in 2023. This fall in income is primarily due to a reduction in
funds raised from our fundraising and marketing activities.
I n response to this challenging environment. the trustees took proactive and prudent steps to
manage the charity's ￿SourCes. Total expenditure was carefully managed and reduced to £86,660
from £90,236 in the previous year, representing a decrease of £3,576.
Despite these diligent cost-saving measures, the sharp fall in income resulted in a net deficit for the
year of £20,584. This has had a significant irnpact on our reserves, which stood at £17,494 at the
year's end (2023.. £38,079).
highest priority for the coming year is to develop and implement a robust and diversrfied fundraising
strategy. We are actively exploring new grant opportunities, strategic corporate partnerships, and
innovative individual giving campaigns to rebuild our reserves to a sustainable level and ensure the
long-term financial health of the charity.
Future Plans
Tve remains steadfast in its commitment to making environmental storytelling accessible to all. In
2025, our key strategic focus areas will be:
Securing a Sustainable Funding Base: Our foremost priority is to secure new, multi-year funding
to ensure the longevity of our core programmes and support our vital mission for the years to come.
Launching the Graphic Novel: We will actively seek development funding to complete and launch
the 'Decade of Destruction, interactive graphic novel, pioneering a new and exciting way to engage
modern audiences with legacy content.
Expanding Our Digitsl Reach: We will continue to expand the content library and user base of our
tve StoryHub, leveraging digital marketing to connect with more viewers globally and build a vibrant
online community.

Completlng the Archive Dlgitlsation: We will seek dedicated funding to continue
and ac￿lerate the vital work of digitising our filrn archive, preserving this unique
asset and unlocking its full educational potential.
Fosterlng Strateglc Partnershlps: We will continue to build on our suc￿Ssful
partnerships, like that with UCL, to amplify our impact, share resources, and create a
collaborative global network of environmental advocates.
We extend our sincere and heartfelt thanks to our donors, partners, and supporters
for their invaluable contributions and belief in our mission during a difficult year.
Together, we can navigate these challenges and continue to create a lasting, positive
impact on the planet.
