In setting the overall pay levels for staff, ROR considers the prevailing pay practice in the wider economy and takes external counsel from the BHA. Relationship between the Charity and related parties The relationship between ROR and other racing industry organisations is outlined under the appointment of Trustees above. Rlsk management In order to achieve and maintain best practice in corporate governance and acknowledging responsibility for safeguarding the assets in the charity's ownership, the Trustees have appointed senior staff members to be responsible for the areas in which the charity may be exposed lo risk. The charity maintsins a risk register of the operational, business and environmental risks that might impact on ROR'S income and ils expenditure plans. This is regularly monitored and reviewed by the Trustees. Key risks for the charity include an economic downturn which would pul pressure on ROR'S income streams al the same time as potentially leading to an increase in ex-racehorses requiring assistan￿ from ROR. Also, any outbreak of equine disease could result in a ￿$satIOn of racing with a major impact on the sport and associated equine activities. Cognisant of these risks, the charity keeps a prudent level of reserves which are held in a wide spread of leading bond and equity funds, although they may be subject lo market fluclualion and downturns. The charity relies on income and capitsl growth generated from the investment of ils reserves and has adopted a policy of using reserves to support activity, whilst aiming lo maintain the long-term real capital value lo generate a ¢onlinual income stream. The TrLJStees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charity, and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregLJlarilies.

Aims and objectives Established in 2000, ROR is dedicated to safeguarding the welfare of all foTmer racehorses through various preventative measures, including.. Setting industy standards for retraining fomier racehorses Providing training and education to new owners to nurture lifelong partnerships with their retired racehorses InC￿aSIng demand by promoting the versatility of these horses in various equestrian activities and facilitating their participation in competitions Maintaining a robust tracking system for former racehorses through ROR membership. ROR also extends support to former racehorses in times of need through ils welfare programmes. Grant-making policy In 2024. ROR continued ils commitment to supporting accredited charitable cenlres across the country. The charity's Head of Welfare Operations oversees the assessment of all horses put forward for vulnerability grants, with funding awarded to those that meet ROR'S defined vulnerability criteria. All grants are subject lo Trustee approval and are contingent on the organisation's activities aligning with ROR'S charitsble objectives. In addition, ROR remains open to considering programme-related investments on a case-by-case basis. provided they are consislenl with the charity's aims and contribute meaningfully lo ils mission. Strate ic re ort Review of charitable activities Welfare Overall, ROR supported 66 horses through ils welfare safely net., a 22 /0 increase on the previous year. This rise was largely attributed lo the ongoing impact of the cosl-of-living crisis and mental health challenges affecting some owners. Through our Ask the Experts email service, we also provided tailored advice to 124 members, helping them navigate a wide range of retraining queries and ensuring they had access to the support they needed. In 2024, the Retraining Assessment Programme run in partnership with HEROS, was in ils second year and had evolved based on our learnings from year one. The programme now requires a contribution from the racing owners towards the initial assessment stage, helping lo determine a horse's suitability for retraining. Once a horse is accepted onto the programme, charitable funding is then used to support ils pmgress through lo rehoming. The progffimme also forms a vital part of a broader first-step framework being developed to help racing owners and trainers responsibly retire horses from the sport. Generously funded, in 2024 by the Racing Foundation and the John Pearce Foundation this framework includes the creation and rollout of a Relrainer Approval Scheme as well as a comprehensive horse assessment process. This will generate valuable dats on the retiring racehorse population, helping to determine outcomes and identify common factors in horses that require additional support. Educatlon In 2024, ROR'S education team delivered 375 mounted and unmounted events. engaging a total of 1,674 participants. A key achievement was securing CPD endorsement for our Racing Insight Days and Realistic Registered number 4089376

Currently, the portfolio is invested in a multi-assel portfolio managed by Bromplon Asset Management on a balanced basis targeting a reasonably high level of income.

ROR has been entrusted to lead the development of a fair and coherent aftercare system. This extends beyond providing charitable support for when things go wrong. and includes proactive, preventative initiatives in retraining, education, traceability. and participation, ensuring every former racehorse has the opportunity for a fulfilling second career.

This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely lo become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. The specifie procedures for this engagement that we designed and performed to delecl materi81 misstatements in respect of irregularities. including fraud, were as follows.. EnqLJiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential liligalion and claims., EnqLJiry of management and those charged with governance to identify any material instances of noncomplian￿ with laws and regulations., Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess ompliance with applicable laws and regulations., Performing audit work to address the risk of irregularities due to management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of signifi¢anl transactions outside the nomial course of business and reviewing awounting estimates for evidence of bias.

All expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Accounting policies are supplemented by estimation techniques where judgement is required in measuring the value of income and expenditure and of assets and liabilities. Going concern The Trustees believe that the charity is well placed to manage its business risks successfully have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate reSoUr￿S to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue lo adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. Statement of financiTal activities ROR is a registered charity and so achievements cannot be measured by nomial commercial criteria. Accordingly, the Trustees consider that il would be inappropriate to present a profil and loss account in one of the formats sel out in the Companies Act 2006. Therefore, as permitted by the Companies Act, in order lo reflect the special nature of the company s activities, the Trustees are of the opinion that it would be more appropriate to present a Statement of Financial Activities. Taxation The Trustees believe that no charge to UK corporation lax will arise in respect of the year lo 31 December 2024 as all activities of the company during this year were of a charitable nature. As a registered charity, the company is entitled lo various exemptions from laxalion on income used for charitable purposes. Income and expenditure All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Income is only deferred where the donor has specified that the amounts received are for use in future accounting periods. 20

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the liming of the grant or the amount of the grant payable. Other charitable expenditure represents administrative costs payable for the period. The cost of generating funds represent advertising costs for the general fund and allocated support Costs. Support costs are allocated based on management estimates of the time spent on the different activities of the charity. VAT As the charity is not registered for VAT, all expenses are shown gross of VAT. Investments and ITnvestment income All investments are stated at market value and the movement shown in the statement of financial activities comprises both realised and unrealised gains and losses. Investment income is accounted for on a receivable basis. Soclal Investments Social investments are stated al cost less impairment at the year end.

Office equipment 34 years Website I datsbase development 4 years Office furniture 10 years Vehicles 4 years Pension scheme The charity does not, itself, operate a pension scheme. The BHA operates a pension scheme that employees of the charity are able to join. The defined benefit section of the scheme was closed to future accrual on 31 December 2015 and from 1 January 2016 811 employees in the pension scheme were active members of the defined contribution section. The charity is unable to identify ils share of the undedying assets and liabilities of the defined benefit scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis and therefore as required by FRS 102, accounts for the scheme as if il were a defined contribution scheme. As a result, the amount charged lo the statement of financial activities represents the contributions payable to the scheme in respect of the accounting period in which they are paid. The charity continued to pay an amount £1,500 (2023.. £1,500) into the scheme in respect of voluntary deficit funding as agreed with the BHA. Amounts of £45,250 (2023.. £37,848) were also paid into the defined contribution scheme operated by the BHA. Donated Services Administrative support costs lencompassing secretariate, marcomms, finan￿ and human resources), which are borne by BHA, are recognised as donated services.
