The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the period ended 31 January 2025

Principal activities of the company

Marketing & Communications. Review & external comments led us to seek assistance to look at our core marketing & communications, via website, email & social channels. Our website has been re-designed to better meet our needs, and this will replace platforms such as Eventbrite to help us better manage the promotion and bookings onto our events. We have engaged part-time social media assistance on an occasional basis that has been a more effcient use of resource. Grant funded work Adventure 70 - National Lottery Community Fund funded April 23 - March 24. East Lancashire focus - aim is to get more people outdoor, active and connected to nature. This funding has provided the ability for us to estimate the need for our services not only in East Lancashire but in adjacent urban areas in Lancashire, West Yorkshire and major cities such as Bradford. This project completed with a final review in May 2024. This review provided focus for our (now successful) new project 'Adventures that Change' which will extend the work that Adv70 - funded by the National Lottery Community Fund - Awards for All. Contract Work (wholly or partially funded by a range of small funds). Move2Change provided the logistical organisation, outdoor technical back up and safety for several community groups using the outdoor environment as stimulus for healthy outdoor activity, creativity and personal growth on a range of residential & non-residential experiences across the UK. In partnership with such organisations as Pendle YESHub, Active Lancashire, Faith Explorers, Experience Wild Ingleborough, Keighley PhotoHub (now Photohub North), Maximus UK, Keighley Big Local, Prospects Foundation, CPAN (Connecting People & Nature (CPAN) Community Leaders, Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, Keighley College, Airedale Enterprise and others we have impacted people of a range of ages and communities. Future funded projects We are actively seeking further funding streams from sources relevant to our aims and geographical areas of operations. We are funding that the acquisition of funding is becoming highly competitive and requires us to build partnerships to attain our aims. Affiliations & certification. We are extending our range of affliations and certification to better deliver value to our client organisations and individuals. We gained Mountain Training UK accreditation to deliver Hill and Mountain Skills courses as a means to enable individuals to walk independently and safely in UK Hills and Mountains. Since gaining accreditation we have delivered several highly successful courses on both Hill & Mountain areas, building competence for our participants, some of whom already lead community groups and who now have the ability to do so with an enhanced range of skills and knowledge. We are the grateful recipients of the Alpkit Continuation project where we receive used outdoor equipment donated by Alpkit customers - helping us to meet both sustainability and income targets. Outdoor activities development work for individuals and teams. This area of work will continue to be delivered by MS/RG under their own qualifications remit but where necessary we will recruit suitably qualified & experienced outdoor (or other skills-based) freelance staff & ensure that they have the appropriate qualifications, insurance, DBS etc. in place. We have delivered training programmes for community leaders and volunteers, walk leaders and youth workers who will all have a positive healthy outdoor impact on members of their respective groups and communities. Creative/Artistic activities in communities. This area of work will continue to be delivered by specific individuals with whom we have established a relationship based on shared values and who have an idea to use natural outdoor environments and activities to generate positive and creative outputs. Safety & logistical coverage for these pieces of work/programmes will be provided by Move2Change core or freelance staff. Corporate area of work (higher-value income generation target). Encouraging corporate social responsibility programmes to bring about change in local ecosystems or communities in co-created projects. We continue to seek partnerships to deliver these targets. Director Inputs and Support. The two directors who are 'active' in the maintenance and development of the organisation have supported the business by financial, material and commitment inputs since January 2021. When examining the viability of the business and responding to calls for information for funding applications we feel that the following factors are of benefit in this report.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 January 2025

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, net of discounts and Value Added Tax. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods); the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in capital and reserves, except to the extent it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset. Where a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit or loss. Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Fittings fixtures and equipment - 33% straight line If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

    Other accounting policies

    Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. Impairment A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. Government grants Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised using the accrual model and the performance model. Under the accrual model, government grants relating to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis over the periods in which the company recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the entity with no future related costs are recognised in income in the period in which it becomes receivable. Grants relating to assets are recognised in income on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income and not deducted from the carrying amount of the asset. Under the performance model, where the grant does not impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where the grant does impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions have been met. Where grants received are prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria, they are recognised as a liability. Financial instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Where investments in non convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets or either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.

COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

MOVE2CHANGE C.I.C.

Company Number: 13111966 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 31 January 2025

Company activities and impact

Move2Change CIC incorporated as a Community Interest Company on Jan 4, 2021. The four directors all held full-time commitments in their employed roles for other organisations, and the two directors that are currently more 'active' in developing the work of Move2Change are still significantly involved in other interests. However, the advantage of these positions was, and still is, that the experiences afforded them in those organisations and roles provides a wealth of contacts and knowledge that will assist the acquisition and development of the work that Move2Change is positioning itself for. We still experience the impact that current funding conditions and cost-of-living crisis are having for some organisations and individuals and we correspondingly adapt our plans to accommodate these. As a community interest company Move2Change is committed to changing lives through positive engagement and activity in the outdoors: helping more people to discover the benefits of being active outdoors and connecting with nature. Income that we gain from commercial work or donations will be used to support our work with those individuals and groups in communities that would otherwise be unable to access the outdoors and gain benefit from being active. Financial Year 2024 has been a challenging one in respect of gaining new funding streams/projects but we are planning to maintain our momentum via an application to the seen a significant rise in income and overall activity due to several factors. We expect to be assessed as being in sound financial health. In the second, and final year, of our funding from TNL Community Fund for our Adventure 70 Project in East Lancashire we have expanded our provision to enable even more people to get outdoors, active and connected. We hope to further develop this work as we enter FY2025. Alongside the other contacts that we held we have also developed other income streams and networks to meet the needs of other communities. In 2024 we estimate that we have provided experiences of a range of duration and type which have positively impacted the physical and mental health and wellbeing for 375 people.
